* Fonts:
You can go to market and do a search for Font Installer - also, there are several apps that featured font installer option like ROM Toolbox ect ...
* Arabic:
I'm not sure wether you can just simply install Arabic font by using font installer app - but I think you can used the patch as linked aboved by hnt20
* Wipe:
You need to have a custom recovery installed on your device - either using ClockWorkMod Recovery (5.0.2.0 or 5.0.2.7)

or:
Teamwin Recovery Project (TWRP for short)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1416118
I suggested you spent some time to read through those post to have an idea and helps yourself to thoroughly understanding along the way
Or:
You may wanna try Xboarder56's tool
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1414274
After installed Recovery. Go can go into recovery by:
* Turn-off your phone completely - removed the battery (just to be sure). Put the battery back into the phone. Hold VOLUME DOWN button and Power button and your phone will boot into recovery - from there you will have the option to wipes
SOLVED
Thanks to all for help. The patch really works, now ARABIC is connected.

I post this For a Reason! You need the ENG-Build for the Recovery / Boot.img
But I've included the eng-boot.img in teh update.
Other than flash the eng-build by bootloader we don't have write access to the recovery..
The eng-recovery works better than the current one, and if you flash it all you have to do is unplug the usb & back in again.. no more trying to get it to see the device & make it some much more easier dealing with recovery mode!
Guys post up if this new build get wifi tether working.. Or if it allows your to delete stock apps through file explorers.

once again, to do that stuff you need to run the update.zip I post!
Once in ClockworkMod recovery, Mount system via the menu then remove what you need...
Ok, so I did the first posted root method. Now I need to flash to the eng. This will wipe all apps and settings on the phone? Then after I put the eng ROM on it I can go right from there and apply the SLIDE2.zip flash?

Now just for amusement purposes its possible to flash this with just root and not downgrading but we would have to do the hole loop thing again??
Thanks for all the work man this is awesome!!
Dear all,
I recently bought an LGP500 and im lovin it..!!!! Came across this forum and found that there are heaps of developments thats taking place in this platform! Really wanna thank each and everyone for their time and effort in trying to improvise on the OS.
I came across [UNOFFICIAL][ROM][stable:6.5.5,testing:6.6] CyanogenMod 7.1-RC1 (Android 2.3.4) and i really want to install it (or in that case, and good GB OS) over my froyo. I have been through a lot of threads on flashing and rooting, but im still very unclear about the whole process. Im not a computer geek, and all these jargon kinda make me feel like a bozo .
As a last resort, im trying out this thread. Would really appreciate if someone could spare some time and provide a simple walkthrough from - (a) backing up the original OS, (b) on through flashing and rooting, (c) to installing this custom ROM and (d) finally restoring it if needed for warranty purposes. Im pretty sure there are a lot of people like me who has difficulty in understanding all these processes and missing out some great developments.
I hope everyone understands this and wont consider this as one of those spam/duplicate threads, where the same Qs are repeated again and again...!
Thanks a lot for any support
Yes, the same Q's are repeated yet again. But I'm in a good mood today and I'll try not to give you much flak for it.
1. Root your phone, use z4root if android v2.2, use gingerbreak (both are apps) if on v2.2.1/2.2.2.
2. Install a custom recovery, of two kinds: AmonRa or ClockworkMod. Search for these threads.
3. Boot into recovery mode for backing up your current rom and installing a new one.
I hope this is a good summary. Before asking any further questions, check out the FAQ link in my signature.
Also read some stickies to enhance your knowledge. The_error has made a very good introduction thread on technical stuff.
In android, for using custom roms, first thing is to root. Then one has to install a recovery. Then make a nandroid backup from recovery. Then wipe everything from recovery and then flash your desired rom.
I suggest you do this:
1. Instal z4root app from market and Root your phone via it.
2. Install rom manager from market.
3. Install clockwork mod recovery via it.
Now you can go to recovery via rom manager or swith off and press and hold for about 15-30 seconds home+volume down+ power button.
Once you are in recovery, you are free to fly.
so which will be the most stable rom (no over clocking) for smooth usage, simple ui, internet and good video playback support. I herd there is problem with some roms not being able to play divx files.
I say rjtchn`s cm7 has the best battery I've had
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App
I can't find either z4root or Gingerbreak in the market. Searching XDA Developers I see several versions of z4root floating around, but since my Optimus V is 2.2.1, I gather I should be using Gingerbreak anyway? Pointers to the correct APK appreciated. Otherwise if I should be going the ADB route, pointers to a thread that has working drivers for the O V linked would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
OK, to answer my own Question, latest version (that I have tested works) of Gingerbreak is at:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044765
Now to figure out which kernel or rom to go with...
--deleted--
hey i am a noob and can't understand what to do with those softwares which are mentioned above, is there any step by step guide from starting to end??
any help would be highly appreciable
ok..i am a noob too.. so what all guys are saying is that, let me simplify:
There are basically 3 steps,
first, install a "gingerbreak" app, which is a apk (u can copy it ur mem.card and using file manager (its default in your stock android), u can install it from ur android after copying
secondly, install ROM Manager Free from Market and Install ClockworkMod Recovery from that app(dont fret about technical names..just do it), its easy as click and download
thirdly, download the Custom ROM like Mik's CM7 6.5.6 or something that pleases you and copy the necessary files posted in the Custom ROM'S page, all will be zip files...and restart the phone , By pressing vol.up+home+power button..u Will get to a different screen(that is recovery) , and make a nandroid backup as everyone says(all options are seen in the recovery) ...then clear cache..clean anything and everything..then install zip file from sd card...choose the Custom ROM and Restart (and lastly , forgot to tell you ,navigate by presssing volume keys and menu key as ok button)
..ok...maybe its not simple as it looks,,once you try..it will be easy as taking candy from a baby, thanks to all the guides and developers and all the ppl that supports it.
There are further step by step tutorials , if u search for it.. i was confused as hell too.. dont worry, U Will get the hang of it Noobz

you should really follow the instructions on the rom of your choice, but ill just give you the general scope of things:
1. root phone using one of the methods found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=901247
2. after rooting, flash custom recovery:
http://androidforums.com/getitnowmarketing/221388-custom-recovery-optimus-one-p500-thunderg.html
3. download rom of your choice from the link in #1 and move it to the root of your sdcard (which is directory /sdcard)
(3.5 you can use titanium backup to backup your apps. the sdcard should stay untouched while you flash your phone but im pretty sure that your internal memory will be erased. i didnt do this and i lost all of my apps so i dont really know where this step should go but i think it belongs here. there should be a folder on your phone with those backed up apps. move that folder to your computer. i didnt do this so im not sure if this is how it goes, sorry. btw this is optional.)
4. boot into recovery (with your phone off, hold home+vol down+power)
5. make a nandroid backup
6. wipe data/factory reset, wipe dalvik cache, wipe cache (follow the instructions on the rom that you chose)
7. flash (your rom name).zip
8. reboot phone (might take a while, thats normal)
the following is if you backed up your apps earlier:
9. move the folder with your apps backed up back to your phone in the exact same directory it was
10. restore it with titanium backup
someone please confirm this.
thanx guys
is there any danger of getting the phone bricked or dead??

hey it shows 1233 on benchmark,,,is it overclocked or at 600mhz?
Hello, sorry for the title error (2.3.6).
This is the way to restore your Nexus One to 100% stock Android 2.3.6, waiting ICS Android 4 official OTA updates (if there will be one).
This rom contains:
hboot
radio
recovery
system ...
(all things return stock except the unlocked bootloader but it isn't a problem)
Thank to Football for the rom e to the XDA wiki for the guide. I decided to create this thread for who is in truble (as me some days ago) and for who wants to return stock before the possible relasing of ICS. Before everything backup your data (and sd card for security) and from custom recovery do:
-wipe battery stats (if you want)
-wipe data and cache
-wipe dalvik cache
Now:
1)Download the shipped rom GRK39F from PASSIMG_Passion_Google_WWE_3.13.1700.1_GRK39F_relase_signed.zip
2)Rename the downloaded ZIP file to PASSIMG.ZIP.
3)Transfer the provided PASSIMG.ZIP file to the root of your SD card.
4)Power down your phone.
5)Hold down the Volume Down button as you power your phone back on.
6)A screen should appear showing your phone's system searching for various files. This will take up to 2 minutes.
7)The phone will ask you if you want to start the update. Press the Volume Up button to start the update.
8)If you followed these steps correctly - congratulations, you are now on stock 2.3.6 ROM.

Please give me thanks that if it was helpful for you
Hallo. I've been looking for this instruction. Thank you. BTW your signature shows that you own Nexus S, not Nexus One. Are you sure the instruction you wrote is for Nexus One?
Yes i had also a nexus one this guide works perfectly for me...i took this from XDA wiki and i updated the latest build

Thank you man, but I wonder if Google would give 4.0 to us Nexus One users...
Thanks a lot, the most recent stock ROM in the FAQ was FRF91.
Edit: The file hosting you link to says it can't find the file (AFTER the stupid wait 60 seconds ) Would you mind re-uploading this to a more reputable file host?
Yes this afternoon i'll upload it on dropbox

Dumb question, but there's no reason I can't just flash this in Amon-Ra or CW, is there? Your instructions are for stock recovery, but as far as I know it should work in any recovery, shouldn't it? (Obviously stock recovery will be flashed on reboot with a stock ROM, I know that.)
you can't flash it by stock recovery or custom recovery. This is not a custom or stock rom...it is a shipped image (in fact you have to name it not in "update" but in "passimg"). You don't have to enter in any recovery...while you boot in the bootloader all is automatic without using recovery! i don't know if im clear, i don't speak english very well

No recovery request in the passage
Your English is fine I forgot that the bootloader handles the updates, not the recovery (which is why the name has to be specific, it looks for that file in the boot sequence). Answers my real question, anyway, which was whether I'd need to revert to stock recovery to apply it (I don't).
Thank you for your help.
No you don't have to...this method works for every rom and recovery

Didn't work
I followed thee steps you suggested. But after it scanned the SD card it didn't ask for anything.It just sat there at the bootloader screen. I'm using CM7.1 right, don't know if that affects anything.
No it is not a problem cm7 ...i Think that you should do this passage if you are using windows:
1) rename in PASSIMG (without .zip)
2) copy it in the root of SD card (not in a folder)
this should be the solution

Hey
yea that's what I did. But I didn't clear cache and data via recovery beforehand. Could that be the reason?
I think not....but for a good use of stock ROM you have to clear everything. If the file is complete downloaded and named correctly the bootloader has to recognize it. Sorry
Sent from my Nexus S using Tapatalk
Hey
I think the zip file has an issue. It said something while searching for files in the bootloader. Can you reupload maybe?

Hi all ,
I already know that i'm a noob so forgive my question.
I have a LG P500 unblocked. The SIM card is of a spanish carrier but I think that doesn't matter.
The problem:
I followed this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1197991
Everything ran ok until here "Flash Custom ROM" - Step 7. Everytime I turn on my cell he just get stuck in the silver lg logo. Just that! After reading the guide 300 thousand times, i notice that I haven't installed the CWM, because there is no indication whatsoever in the guide to install it, so it's impossible step 7 to work, right?
So, where I can download the right CWM for this phone and how can I install it manually in the sd card? Which folders I need to create and if it should be in the root or not.
The ROM that I've copy to the sd card (unzipped) it was this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1325386
It brings already the "gapps.zip" file, that is referenced in the step 6.
Please don't tell me that the phone is bricked.
The "Emergency Mode" is no good! It's just a yellow screen with small black letter saying: "Emeregency Mode!" and the keys don't work.
So can anyone help me, please!
Thank you very much!!!
follow this guide :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15309588&postcount=2
but to answer your question directly, you can download rom manager from the market, which will allow you to flash clockworkmod recovery. once it has been flashed, reboot into recovery, and direct your phone to the file of your rom (it does not have to be in the root of the sdcard; the rom file should be zipped, not unzipped)
however (once again) i think it will be much more clear if you follow that guide.
root and install through rom manager
or
you can directly flash cwm recovery following http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1318750
Hi ,
I'm really a noob...
First, one million thanks to mak.3736 & sweetnsour.
Now continuing with the saga as follows:
This run it sweet - http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1318750
I was able to install CWM and make all the backups necessary but... of course other problem has to arise... following the same guide from before, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1197991
in step 9 says: "9. Wipe Data/Factory Reset, wipe cache partition, & under Advanced Settings, Wipe dalvik-cache, then format all partitions EXCEPT /sdcard.". I was able to format all the partitions except one called 'sd-ext'. I try more than once and gave some error but didn't pay much attention. Anyway I continued following the guide and try to flash this time this ROM 'Harmonia 1.7 (Aphrodite+Picasticks)'. And again happens the same! When the phone boots get stuck on the silver lg logo (I waited 10 minutes because I know the first time a new ROM loads can be quite slow). And again I have to restart in the CWM mode and restore from backup to the stock ROM!
Sorry sound annoying but any ideas of what's happening? What can I being doing wrong?
Thx in advance!
Sorry...
Just one small detail which I think strange and don't know if it's normal...
When I'm navigating in the CWM mode, in the bottom of the screen this info is present:
'ClockworkMod Recovery v5.0.2.0
E:Bad boot message
"recovery"'
This bad boot message, what is this? It's important?

Hi ,
I'm really a noob...
First, one million thanks to mak.3736 & sweetnsour.
Now continuing with the saga as follows:
This run it sweet - http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1318750
I was able to install CWM and make all the backups necessary but... of course other problem has to arise... following the same guide from before, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1197991
in step 9 says: "9. Wipe Data/Factory Reset, wipe cache partition, & under Advanced Settings, Wipe dalvik-cache, then format all partitions EXCEPT /sdcard.". I was able to format all the partitions except one called 'sd-ext'. I try more than once and gave some error but didn't pay much attention. Anyway I continued following the guide and try to flash this time this ROM 'Harmonia 1.7 (Aphrodite+Picasticks)'. And again happens the same! When the phone boots get stuck on the silver lg logo (I waited 10 minutes because I know the first time a new ROM loads can be quite slow). And again I have to restart in the CWM mode and restore from backup to the stock ROM!
Sorry sound annoying but any ideas of what's happening? What can I being doing wrong?
Thx in advance!

if i remember correctly, harmonia is for the optimus v. you cannot flash optimus v roms on the optimus one. you can only flash roms from here, (a list of roms can be found here)

Sorry...
Just one small detail which I think strange and don't know if it's normal...
When I'm navigating in the CWM mode, in the bottom of the screen this info is present:
'ClockworkMod Recovery v5.0.2.0
E:Bad boot message
"recovery"'
This bad boot message, what is this? It's important?

this is normal. just ignore it
If I'm not mistaken wasn't bumblebee a rom tailored for the OpV but someone got it working with OpT...I'm probably wrong and I sure think I am, clarification? But adding to what sweetnsour gave you, also look under ciaox thread, its a complete breakdown of roms from 2.2 to 2.3.7. Its in the android development section under stickies. Also the thread comes with many other things ie..kernels and tools. Sweetnsour's thread is great as well though

Do an Hard Reset before flash ROM
Sorry only answer now...
First, thx to terratrix, sweetnsour, Jrhodes85 and Raffy 97.
Second, sorry for my dumb assumption that any ROM for LG could run in any LG Android phone...
So I can only try to flash a ROM built specifically for the LG P500. Got it! I will search on the ROM's list. Any in particular that you guys recommend?
I'm looking for a ROM with a lighter boot, better wifi connection and in which apps like gmail, yahoo mail and facebook don't get jammed. I also want to remove the tweeter aplication, netlog and specific lg applications from my phone because I don't need it. And the possibilty to apply skins. And not have three different applications for weather and news.
So, suggestions?
Thx in advance!
Get cm7 by mik os .....6.5.8 =)
Then if you manage to successfully install the ROM f flash fserves kernel =)

Hi all ,
Just to say that I'm testing the ROM Oxygen ROM 2.3.1
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1325386
Some problems with bluetooth...
The rest I will test in the following days. But I can say it's faster and lighter.
And I have 4 screens... It's possible have 5?
Thanks
Clockwork Based Recovery
I RECOMMEND USING THE TOUCH RECOVERY! (click here)
Disclaimer
I'm not responsible for any damages to your phone. Neither am I responsible, if the phone becomes alive, runs away, dominates or kills you ;P
Also, if you don't know how to flash this, then you probably shouldn't... just saying...
All this work is done "blind", since I don't have a note, so be thankful to the testers, who were willing to sacrifice their devices

How to install/update
- see post #2
Thanks to
utkanos - for help with the framebuffer
DAGr8, Johnsondr80, lpsi2000, BLOWNCO - for testing my crap
koush and anyone who worked/works on cwm/cm - without them this wouldn't have been possible
and possibly lots of other people who did important android work, but are sadly forgotten
Good luck, and happy flashing.
Please report bugs with as much detail as possible, and preferably in a separate paragraph
How to install
Odin (this will increase the flash counter)
- put your phone into download mode
- in odin choose pda, and select the .tar.md5 file and flash
Note: there are several guides how to use odin on xda
Alternative (this will NOT increase the flash counter but is harder to do)
- get adb (from the android sdk for example)
- root your phone
-> there are several ways how to archive that, the easiest is probably flashing a rooted system.img using Odin (flashing system does not increase the counter)
- start your phone normally and activate USB debugging (Settings, Applications, Development or so, enable USB debugging)
- extract the recovery.img from either the Odin.tar.md5 or from the CWM.zip and put it onto your sdcard
- connect the phone to your computer, dont mount/share the sdcard
- run the following commands:
Code:
> adb shell
~ su
# dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p22
<some output>
# exit
~ exit
- the path (/sdcard/recovery.img) might need to be adjusted
- NOTE: this can brick your phone, if you have typos, make sure you know what you are doing
Updating CWM
- download the update.zip from the CWM link and put it on your sdcard
- reboot to recovery and install it, on the next reboot you should have the new version running
- alternatively all the above can also be used to update
Back to stock
- get the correct stock recovery.img (the at&t one should also work for telus, Bell and rogers, otherwise look for the correct one)
- use the Odin or Alternative to flash the stock recovery img back

hey guys i was using beta 1 then i went ahead and flashed this after doing so i getting nothing but force closes on everything ? any help is appreciated ? i was thinking would flashing da_g's 3e recovery fix this?
I can confirm sdcards issue is fixed. Once again - amazing work! Much appreciated.
I agree the fonts are really small and hard to see and while we're on that subject - are there any plans to port the touch interface?

yes, there are plans to do that,
there will also be a "fix" for the font size (I don't count that as a bug)
not sure when it will be done though

Updates via CWM
Hi Braway, do you have any plans on releasing updates on CWM format? It would be convenient to flash updates on the go. And you know, with this big boy, who needs a damn PC anymore?

The best way to flash this is to make a nandroid backup first. Then flash CWM Beta 3. Then restore from the backup.
At least, that's what worked for me. No FCs here.
