Will the Optimus V xionia kernel work on our optimus one??? If i screw up the kernel wud i still be able to boot into Amonra2.1 recovery??? Does Recovery work on top of the linux kernel (my guess is -it does coz theres dmesg in recovery mode too)???
I don't think the kernel will work on p500 both devices have different hardware. And yes even if u flash any wrong kernel or rom you can boot into recovery. Just make sure that the kernel or rom zip doesn't have any recovery update in them.

When I flash a kernel where does get installed in /system or in which partition /boot also I m sure optimus one and v have same msm7227 except that v runs on cdma network so maybe telephony won't work..how do I check if zip does not flash boot partition???
I sent my Optimus V in for service. It was bootlooping with the LG Screen only after using LGs broken update tool. Fortunately for me the repair was covered under warranty. I am wondering if the phone is running the new kernal will I be able to root it because there is no fast boot feature? Does anyone have the Virgin mobile optimus V with the new screen and the V5 Kernal Rev running a Custom Rom Rooted. I don't want end up with another phone out of service. My other Phone is running the V4 kernal and old screen with a Bobzhome Rom what a great build in comparison to the Frayo.
I have the new optimus v with the new screen.
I'm using IHO Recovery built by BobZHome that has a kernel that supports the new screen. It is based off of CWM
For my rom I'm using IHO Mirage based on CyanogenMod 7.2
Here's where I got recovery and rom
https://github.com/inferiorhumanorgans/android_device_lge_thunderc/wiki/Binary
Just scroll down to optimus v section. Choose either IHO recovery or Xionia recovery and flash via adb or terminal and then you can flash one of the IHO roms or a rom of your choice via the new recovery

I'm planning to trade-in my p500, but i don't think mobile operator will buy it if it is rooted and has custom rom on it. so is there a way i can revert it all back to stock froyo unrooted? I'm currently on andy's phoenix gb rom with cwm recovery.

I had the same problem.
In order to get back to stock i used kudoz and installed a 10e european version and after that I used lg update tool and flashed the latest official gingerbread release for my country.
And surprise...it worked flawlessly, I was back on stock before you know it!
can you give me full instructions?
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium
Just follow the instructions in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1060121.
after you are done with that connect the phone to pc and fire up lg mobile update tool and update.
that's it!

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Currently, which rom are u using?
and initially, were u on stock 2.2 (froyo) or 2.3 (gingerbread)...when u had ur "connection" working?
i tryed this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1529777
the previous mod was 2.3.7
it may be because of u tried to flash a rom of different baseband....if u was initially on LG stock 2.3.3 then u should use rom wich have new baseband....nd If u was on stock 2.2 then old roms should be work fine...
so i can't istall newest roms??
gimme a link of a cool room whit latest android please!
you can install official GB from LG website. In this way you will get the new baseband automatically. After that, you can root the device (there are many guides available around), install from market clockworkmod recovery and install any new ROM from this site.
Good luck!

what rom do you suggest then?
Ok, but what ROM and baseband do you have now?
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium
if you want to use newest rom with new baseband then just upgrade your baseband....search for how to upgrade basebande in xda...there's a beautiful guide on that and it's quite safe i have changed mine 2 times already ;-)
Go here, read everything and STOP WHINING AROUND!!!!
now i have original lg rom updated... 2.3.3
but when it start it says wind... (f**king phone company)
Maybe the Rom you flash is not suitable for your sim, there are two version of Roms like milestone and droid
Milestone is for gsm
Droid is for the other one(i can't remember the name)
Or you should try stock Rom?

If that is the case, maybe you shpuldtrywoth another SIM. Looks like a SIM issue to me.

My girlfriend has just got the Optimus T for use with her T mobile prepaid. I am wondering which development section I need to be looking in for regards to which roms will work with her phone and be compatible with T mobile. Did they make a CDMA and GSM version of this phone?
I dont want to start flashing files not meant for her phone or Tmobile's basebands.
I appreciate any help you can give.
I have the optimus t. You can basically flash any old baseband rom like mikos or others.GTR and gingersnap also work for old baseband cuz there's an integrated baseband fix. I updated my baseband to v20g and can confirm that everything works like 3g talk and text. If you don't want to update baseband then I think there's a baseband fix somewhere in the threads...idk where it is cuz I'm on.new bb
