installed open optimus, facing issues - Optimus One, P500, V General

I couldnt find relevant answers bt searching so i am creating a new thread.
I just now installed open optimus rom for 2.3.3(build 2.202.1)
2.6.35.14-franco kernel
i followed this thread
now i am facing some problems
when usb debugging is on, and i plug in usb, it tickers usb debugging connected and then phone freezes, and reboots and keeps on rebooting itself. windows keeps on finding and losing the phone. so i cannot connect in debugging mode. However when i disable debugging and enable mass storage only i can access the mass storage mode
also phone freezes up when i run certain apps(like proxydroid)
and refreshes(ie does not reboots but does some kind of reset of launcher etc which is fast)
secondly
the theme is very dark, i want a more light theme.
edit: i liked the gingerbread theme, this one is bluish, i want black like gingerbread. plz tell how to do i change to gingerbread theme
this is first time i am installling custom rom, (i had upgraded my phone to 2.3.3 manually some days back though)
What should i do to get debugging mode

plz some1 reply to this thread

yes even me faced some problems with open optimus (gingerbread), it has some bugs.
I suggest change your rom ?

ya, i did that, went back to my backuped 2.3.3 stock rom.
i guess i have to say, all custom roms have some bugs, so u cant use them if u want just stable and reliable use of ur phone.
if anyone can suggest a custom rom with no freezes, crashes, and most functionality working, ill be very happy to switch

and i would like to say that i upgraded to 2.3.3 from froyo using info from mak.3736 signature. so thanks to u

This isnt true.I think the most stable custom roms arexygen rom,aosp rom,mik's cm7(both stable & testing) and Andy's rom(but it has video bug,but i cn live without it).And almost all froyo roms are stable.

can u plz tell which rom, kernel u using, is it bug free? and i want gingerbread roms only.. coz stock gingerbread looks way more cool than stock froyo and since i have baseband v20 i dont want to change it.
thanks..

I m using the openoptimus rom I suggest u reflash ur rom and cleaar the dalvik cache from recovery to solve the problems u are facing. The only bug in this rom m facing is tethering errors

ok ill trying it again, this time i wiped dalvik cache too.
EDIT: it is working properly now. i guess the problem resolves after wiping dalvik cache and reflashing rom
and how to theme this rom? i want it to closely resemble gingerbread rom in terms of colors
i am still facing crashes or freezeups afterwhich phone kinda reboots. i guess ill stick to stock rom.

if you want to switch to gingerbread cutom roms
first downgrade baseband to v10 follow : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1217504
then you can flash mik's rom or andy's rom or aosp or oxygen , all are good, but as you are new you might like mik's rom 6.5.8 , as according to my view its more stable and most of the functionality working.

ok ill try mik rom sometime(its the one by mik_os cm7 rit 6.5.8-beta1)?
also tell me how can i add powermenu, remove some stock crapware apps and other goodies to a stock rom 2.3.3 , kinda what cyber_avjit did. his rom cannot be downloaded, none of download link is working
i know there is a 'kitchen' but i am a not a pro cook.
so i need some cooking tips too.
thanks for ur patience to bear with me

for building power menu there is a thread in xda (search it)
for removing stock apps from rom you can use titanium back up, but remember there are some apps that should not be removed (if removed causes force close or boot loops), there is a thread in xda (search) which tells which app from stock rom can be removed safely.

If u want stock then I suggest aga rom I used and I really like this rom

No need to wipe anything.
Backups are always handy. But be aware that backup done by amonra or cwm are not compatible to each other. That means backup taken by any recovery will only be restored with same recovery.

That zip file is for amonra recovery which doesn't have an option for formatting system. In cwm recovery, you have the format system option.
Flashing doesn't lead to bricking normally.
And all custom roms are always rooted.

go to cyanogenmod settings and there is something like interface (i don't know exactly, because i don't have it in phone right now), but you can certainly change icons in the notification area.

thanks solved the network issue.. but as i tried to open the market it just popup for a second and close .. so unable to download anything from market...btw is it ok to flash franco.kernel v14 with cm7 .. do i need to wipe anything before flashing?
no. I just flashed. you can wipe cache+dalvik if you want. check for two files mentioned in franco's thread. if you have them, You HAVE to delete them before flashing. if you dont, just flash. you need setCPU to change the CPU freq coz CM OC screen does not display at the moment. battery and smoothness is great.

I flashed Franco kernel too, half an hour before. But I didn't check for those two files. But the phone is functioning fine.
Are those two files to be deleted are meant for everyone or for those who have previously flashed Franco kernel?

slow down it takes tym to gt a reply..
anyhow i m here
1) All custom roms are rooted so u will not loose ur root access..
2)All rom developers have listed the samsung apps deleted by them,and they usually give it as an addon pack if some people want.
See it what apps they have removed , if the app u want is deleted good for u or u have to deleted it manually as u have done in the past..
Alternatively u can delete it from the rom before flashing too... if u are experienced.
3)This is a kernel related issue try changing/flashing a new kernel the problem should get solved..
i want to flash the litening rom, what is the newest version available?
my kernel is KF4 but most of the roms i found are for other kernel versions, how do i solve this?
The latest version of litening ROM is here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1095274
but can i suggest Cognition as i have used both and i do prefer cognition:

Your kernel doesnt matter - each ROM usually includes their own kernel and when you flash the new rom the kernel from that ROM will also be applied to your phone at the same time

hi i just bought my phone last week an I've already experienced some lag even though there's not much apps installed. so now i want to try a custom rom. what rom would be the best for first timers thanks..
If you have 2.2 installed (old baseband) than andy's phoenix rom is the best.
Grab it from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=909242
If you have 2.3 (new baseband) than you should go for Ginger LOL:

baseband is not the android version. i wrote up a small thing on baseband here.
here is the link for ginger lol (the link in post two is actually the right link except for the four dots):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1118685
in my opinion, i would use andy's phoenix rom. follow these instructions:
a) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15309588&postcount=2
b) also, since you are currently using official gingerbread (2.3.3), you need to downgrade your baseband version, instructions found here
thanks for the info man. as i've read, most roms will eventually support the new baseband. so i think, im gonna wait a little longer for that. one more thing though. i though when i install rom, the kernel comes along with it, but as i read it seems that i need to flash my kernel too? thanks for your help.
phoenix rom comes with franco's .35 kernel preinstalled
There's no need to install other kernel.
roms using old baseband is never going to support new baseband...
DUDE I prefer, no need to root your stock rom for installing custom rom.

Hi,
I am from India, and using official stock rom v20c 2.3.3. I want to overclock my phone for playing lag free games. Can anyone suggest me how can I do.. what kernel i have to use so that I would not like to face battery drain, overheat, Problem with 3g or wifi, hotspot, tethering issues.
THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS THAT before flashing custom kernel please tell me how to backup my official kernel.... so that if in case i will go back to the stock one.
Please share the link of custom kernel.
Is there any need to backup phone data such as apps, contacts ,messages, etc.?
one thing I also want to know that what kernel do.. what is its main role..?

IMHO most stable kernel is paolo v5/v6, it overclocks quite good (with external app - e.g. No-frills), no problem with tethering (wifi or usb) or 3g. I think v5 has a little longer battery life.
To backup stock kernel you need to make nandroid backup (that creates backup of everything on your phone and in case of restoring, it will overwrite every change you made on phone since backup). To do that you need recovery (I'm using ClockworkMod Recovery, but there is also other recovery somewhere in our P500 thread).
Recovery is also needed to install new kernel. There is short guide how to do that in kernel thread (you need to install downloaded zip). New kernel doesn't wipe your msgs, contacts or apps if you made no mistakes.
Custom kernels do few things: fixes bugs made by lg, boost phone performance (different kernels give more or less boost), unlocks overclocking, changing governors (controls CPU clock transitions, and therefore battery life and smoothness) and scheduler (i have too little knowledge about android to say, what it should do, but i observed no difference between schedulers), gives you better battery life, fix touch lag (but not multitouch inversion lag bug).
You should try Paolo's and Franco's kernels and choose which one fits you better. Franco's need app to use wifi tethering but is faster than Paolo's.
I experienced more restarts on paolo's v6 and franco's than on v5 (my favourite so far, but there is also new paolo's based kernel that I haven't tested yet).
To install recovery (and kernel) you need root.
All needed instructions and links are here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=901247
AND MOST IMPORTANT THING - ALWAYS DO WHAT INSTRUCTIONS SAY AND DO NOT INSTALL KERNEL THAT IS NOT INTENDED FOR YOUR ROM, SO READ AND INSTALL CAREFULLY.

Hey Indian user, don't be afraid of flashing Kernel, you can always change it.. and I went twice to service centre with CWM 5.2.0... OC-480-729... franco's .35 kernel ... and they didn't came to know anything... but if you give them a phone with custom ROM then the'll reject it..
Abhinav i m a newbie to android.. actually i m an IT person.. n understands what u r saying but i m feeling afraid of doing any thing wrong bcoz i have already bricked my phn earlier while flashing gb through kdz.. so its very important for me to under the process first...
As per ur suggestion.. plz correct me or help me if i m wrong:
Firstly i have to download adb n install over my xp based pc..
Secondly in adb i have to run adb push command for sending the database file to the phn...
STOP..... WHAT file IS THAT DB IS...? N from where i get this.. i mean where did i get this stock recovery,? in which format is the recovry is?
And how the process will be run .. n how the clockwork recovery is replaced with stock one.. i have tried the combination of three buttons at startup in stock rom but no menu opens instead the phn will forcefully reset. so where is the official recovery?.
Help me plz expain how to do n for what to do in each n every step...
Is it true that after installing cw recovry n custom kernel we cant do a kdz stock flash..... Confirm me that after having custom kernel.. it should not lead the phone in non detecting position.. n if kdz works n can remove both kernel n cw recovery too then i think this is much easier ... i had seen a lot of post that o1 bricked by kdz flashing gb.... so if it possible then i have decided to flash froyo first n then update the phone via pc suite.... help me.... plzzz
Sent from my [email protected] OpTiMu$ On€ [email protected]
yes if u flashed a cutom kernel a custom recovery or a custom rom you can use kdz just turn on the usb debugging mode in setting>application>development to flash official stock froyo or official gb.. by using kdz method everything will be reverted back to stock recovery, kernel, rom, everything.. i suggest you to firstly flash the stock froyo using kdz method so you will be psychologically satisfied that you can go to stock

I IZ NOOB. Which Gingerbread ROM should i install?

Hi,
I was thinking of installing a custom ROM on my Optimus One/P500 last year but decided not too and kept using the stock 2.1 ROM, until yesterday when i installed the root uninstaller app to remove some of the annoying default apps and somehow messed the phone up and now it won't start!
So now i wan't to install a custom ROM with Gingerbread, but there seem to be so many different ones with different specs that a n00b like me just isn't 1337 enough to understand.
I'm looking for a simple Gingerbread ROM without too many fancy add-ons, it should have the default Gingerbread theme, should run faster then and get better battery life then stock Android 2.1, and be stable enough for everyday use, please suggest which ROM i should install!
Nearly 90% of the official roms are uploaded with megaupload and those links are down

You should update to Official Gingerbread for Optimus One.
Better battery life? No way. Stock Froyo version has the best battery life. Any Gingerbread rom will drain your battery quick. The only advantage is that Gingerbread run more fast.
First update to official gingerbread for the new baseband..

and root it.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1007244
and Flash Perfectpeso ROM its Good
If Gingerbread will drain the battery too much, what's a good user friendly and minimalistic Froyo ROM that will have better battery life then stock?
Also i seem to have messed up my stock ROM while trying to get rid of some default apps using the "Root Uninstaller" app from the Android market, It won't get past the 'ANDROID' title screen, Is it possible to install a new ROM without having to start the phone?
If you doesn't want to change baseband, you must search rom that works on the old one.
There's even a fix that made possible use the gingerbread ron on the old baseband.
Some roms (like nightlyfour by eeee616) has a old baseband version, other (like Perfectpeso by tretted) has linked the fix for old basebad by adfad666.
Bye!

You can flash custom recovery via LGMDP tool.

Then hang the three button combo Power+Home+Vol down till recovery opens and flash the ROM there.
If you want Froyo, I suggest you devoid #froyo-final .
But I don't agree with previous posts - I think, the battery in Gingerbread is much better than in Froyo.
Better use mik's CM 7.1 ROM. i had used it for almost 4 months with no issues. If you are a heavy user of 3g or 2g data, it is recommended that you upgrade your baseband for a slightly better reception, if not, stick to this baseband, and you can flash the recovery via LGMDP tool(link in the post above mine).
I have been using the latest CyanogenMod 7 after updating my phone with the official LG updater, re-rooting, installing Rom Manager, and it's great. Especially with this kernel
