Whats the best rom for my LG Optimus One (P500h) ?
2.2.2 stock room with root. Since the beginning I always was using custom roms, but this is my personal opinion in the past few months I prefer the stock room with root, which I can make any tweak I want, and doesn't have battery drain and bugs that some custom rooms have.
And cause many of the custom rooms are based in 2.2, and 2.2.1+ had some updates that repaired VPN that I use a lot. I couldn't be more happy with it, cause it gives me a lot of experience messing with android too.
There is no best ROM. You choose what suites you. Now, if I were to tell you that the best ROM for me is Light, would you choose it too? It doesn't come with Darktremor, so no one else except non-Darktremor users use it.
Point is, look at what the ROMs bring. Choose according to what you need or what you don't need.
However, if you want something widely used by the people here, use void/devoid or LOL or Megatron or Prime or the other ROMs with popular threads on the Dev subforum
I use the stock Rom rooted with a overclocking kernal
Very fast.
Andy's 2.3.2 Gingerbread
LOL v1.2 with fixed Kernel

I downloaded the official rom from lg website to my country and decompress it, and with this kitchen added root, and left the rest untouched.
pedroh: how can we tell version is the original ROM on LG website? Can you also share the instruction on how to install the kitchen? I am using v10c (2.2) firmware.
I do not have the links anymore, but I know how to do it, but google it is similar procedure as making your own rom.
if u stay on 2.2 use Void echo, if 2.2.2 is ur choice the u can flash Nessy.. its a good ROM . however i am using 2.3.3 andy gingerbread... though its in developing stage but i am quite happy with some bugs in it...
I'm using Optimus X rom, it has the best performance for the limited CPU frequency on the LG p500, but with a good kernel you can eeek out a extra 170MHz - 206 MHz out of the processor.
I'm running the rooted stock Froyo 2.2 and Mik's mutlitouch kernal overclocked.
I'm using my Nessy ROM!

Just wondering..
What ROMs are currently being developed here on XDA (both the original android & android ROMs sections) are flashable through ODIN? and is there a benefit to flashing through CWM?
Thanks heaps

flashing through odin you can flash stock roms from different regions and also litening pro...check the android development section and you will find the rom thread there. also if you are going to root do your homework first...
benefit of flashing through CWM is it makes life alot easier...ie flashing through your computer each time you want to put a new rom on your phone...all your answers are in the original development thread
Yeh..I've been using Lite'ning Rom (currently on v6.1) on my SGSII, but I wanna jump on android 2.3.5.
Any recommendations on ROMs that can be flashed via ODIN..and provides good battery life?
Stock 2.3.5 from Intratechs thread .
jje
Do stock like JJe suggested and then just enjoy the beauty of it...give yourself a week trying it out and in between read through the original dev forums about roms and how everything works...each rom thread has guides on installations and how they work...if you got more questions feel free to ask me

Okay, so I come from the world of 1.5 years of Motorola MIlestone and dealing with locked bootloaders and then about 9 months on my Nexus S.
What I've noticed is that ROMs always come as just ROMs (esp with the Milestone because of its locked bootloader). The Nexus S would have custom kernels and stuff, but recovery was always separately flashed.
I've recently been helping my friend mod her Captivate and I just got an SGS2 yesterday. How come ROMs in SGS2 and Captivate world are bundled with the recovery? This definitely confused me when I did CF-Root because it gave me CWM 4, but I wanted a newer one obviously. People suggested that I just flash some other ROM and I'll get a newer recovery. I'd just like to know how come recoveries are bundled with ROMs and what not.

I know how to root, and I have achieved Root already. I'm just wondering why these phones bundle CWM and other recoveries with ROMs, while on my Nexus S, it's always separate? ROMs are just ROMs without CWM...
Really its because CWM is the method used for flashing most custom roms and as many users are not able to read the guides i guess devs just add CWM .
That saves posters saying help i flashed xxx rom and have lost CWM .
Standard method of updating CWM is to flash a later CWM and root Kernel not a custom rom .

Hi all,
So my question is a pretty basic one, but obvious answer doesn't seem to be logical.
I just rooted my Verizon GS4 ME7, and installed SafeStrap 3.6x build, successfully, root achieved.
Now, my question is, I've tried installing the ROMs from other devs that state that they are TWRP compatible (because SS is TWRP based), yet none of them have booted successfully. So, if the problem exists because of a lack of compatibility (for a reason I'm not fully understanding), what is the point of having SS without any ROMs being compatible?
I'm willing to help a dev with coding or something to fix the problem, but idk what to look for or why this is happening?.
HELP!
Thanks!

Just because its twrp compatible doesnt mean its SS compatible. Any rom that doesnt use the TW kernel wont work, so aosp roms are out of the question. What roms are you trying to install and stupid question, did you follow the install procedure outlined in the SS thread.
Hit thanks if I helped you out. Doing a little bit of reading goes a long way. Sent via tapatalk.

So I guess that makes sense. I did follow the procedure outlined in the thread; to the T. I just tried the PACman ROM, SlimBut what are some roms that DO use the TW kernel? Because as far as I can tell, the only ROM that successfully flashes thus far is the HYPERDRIVE ROM, which is stock minus the bloatware and adding a few tweaks.
