A new official LG India firmware has been launched, V10C. it's on android 2.2.1 and gets 31fps on neocore. So I guess it's the same as the V10E that people are describing.
The SD card still behaves weirdly, not sure about unmounting since I've not made any calls. Overall, the system has become noticeably slower. Would it be safe to roll back to V10B using the KDZ updater?

Yes, you are right. It's hard to even root the handset.

Try the optimus prime-v2, its fast and will meet your requirements. SD card problem is rare in it and the entire firmware sits on SD card, so you get a lot of free memory.
Not dev thread.
Moving to general.
Cheers
Ok I tested it out.. this firmware is quite horrible and it did not fix anything and the phone has become really slow in every way. I'm reverting to V10B for now, no choice. Hope all goes well.
I have strange problem after upgrading my p500 to v10c. it stopped notify me for any incoming calls. even vibration is not working in the silent mode. But the called number listed as missed call. pls somebody throw some light on this issue.
How to downgrade from v10c to v10b?
Sluggish and useless
Seemed like LG rushed this update. The device becomes too slow and sluggish. Upgraded and downgraded after 2 hours. Rooting through conventional means is broken.
Not upgrading. My P500 works fine at the moment with the older Firmware.
Any idea how to remove the crap apps they have pre-installed ?

Root and remove unneeded apk(s) and their corresponding odex files from /system/app using any root supported file browser like root explorer. Before doing this you might want to clear data. To cleanup left over odex files also remove from /data/dalvik-cache. You can cleanup this entire directory, but you would have to reboot for odex files to be re-created.

hi, I bought this phone two days back. I want to ask that if I follow your guide to remove some crap applications, and then if in future I do a factory reset, will it create any problem?
Hello
Has anybody figured out a way to root this latest firmware?

I couldn't figure out how to install that. The optimus prime post is not very clear about the steps.. it seems to be linking to other posts which aren't too clear themselves..
I am still on V10b, so do you guys strictly suggest not to upgrade to V10c?
Almost everything is fine for me with the current version, apart from one one strange problem..
The bulk SMS received do not get grouped properly. Bulk SMS 'from name' are usually in the format XX-XXXXX, now what happens is.. if the number of characters in the 'from name' of sms after '-' are same (whatever be the name), they are grouped together in the same thread.
This happens only with bulk sms which has name in above mentioned format, all other sms are grouped properly. Also, this happens in every sms application i have tried including the default one.
Hope i was able to explain it properly. Anyone else facing the same issue?

I bought my new Samsung Galaxy 2 on Sunday, and although I got it from the Carphone Warehouse, for some reason it's got Orange Plus software on it under applications!
I've got Titanium Backup on my phone and rooted it via Odin but cannot for the life of me find anything called Orange Plus via Titanium or Root Explorer. Can anyone please advise?
Thanks!

open root explorer, look in 'data', then app-private. should be in there. Thats where my 'everything-everywhere' app is installed from t-mobile.

Thanks, but that directory appears to be empty...
Data/data and there's something in the folder called orange.authentication or something like that. Is that the one?
orange.authentication.simcard.permission
Sounds fairly important whatever it is- searched orange using root explorer
Orange PLUS is not an orange specific app
its SIM TOOL KIT
its on all phones, just not all carriers place the data on your sim card to use it.
Hey, I just purchased the ZTE Merit z990g from straight talk and was wondering if someone could help me, my problem is the phone keeps telling me that the drive is full with apps I have downloaded or were already on there, I have moved the apps I could to the sd card but for some reason some apps won't let me move them or delete them like facebook youtube and some others. Is there a way to move or delete these apps that are taking up phone space? Thanks in advance

we need to start a thread on this great phone. need root acees
Some apps are desktop widgets so you can't move them to sd card by normally...
But if you root your phone than you can move any app using droidsail superapp2sd...
So whether you want to delete bloatwares or move desired app to sd you need root access..
So first of all search how to root your device...
Helping you is my pleasure

I know that I need to root my phone to get rid of bloatware, but the problem is, no body will explain how to root the phone. My phone is a ZTE Z990G Merit from Straight Talk.
Hello everybody,
I have the LG optimus F6 by Metro PCS. I DID root my device, but am trying to move my apps to my 8gb sd card. I need an app that will actually work. I have tried multiple apps and none are working for me. I need to move large apps such as Facebook and Utorrent to the SD because I am getting messages stating that my "internal memory is full." Additionally, I would like to create wi-fi hotspots but cannot find any apps that work. I DO get popups that say "GRANT SUPERUSER REQUEST" but the app ends up not working...Thanks for your help!

First off I would recommend running the RootChecker just to make sure your device is rooted properly. If it says your rooted great, if not double check that you rooted your device correctly. As far as moving your apps to the sdcard I would recommend taking a look at the app MoveToSD it has always worked well for me when I used my original Motorola Droid which has very limited internal storage. For an app that works well for creating a Wifi hotspot I would recommend taking a look at WiFi Tether for Root Users, as well as FoxFi (Try the free version first and if it works well for you the paid version is well worth the price from my own positive experiences with the app).
hotspot with metropcs
I also have a metropcs with a LG Optimus f6. Too get my hotspot to work I went into phone settings/apps/all. Then scroll down to upsell and disable it. My phone is not rooted and im paying for the $60.00 unlimeted plan. Remember wifi is disabled in your phone not on the network. I am still working on ps3 to tether also will update with progress. Let me know if you have anymore problems.

Root
Hi!
I rooted my LG Optimus f6 D505 with this package. (In the attachment) I think it must work for You too, but remember it can brick Your phone and I don't undertake any responsibility etc...etc...just follow the instructions.
When You unrar or unzip it. But before You do this right clock on the zip package and unblock it! Because Your windows will block it as it is downloaded from the internet. Then run the "install" file as administrator and follow the on screen instructions. Enable USB debugging on Your phone and set the connection type to MTP. I did it and it worked for me. I hope it will work for You, too.
And if You brick Your phone download the LG PC Suite program from the LG's official site and You can restore Your stock ROM with that.
Greetings
Can anyone confirm that ^this^ works? What have other people done?
Use towel root it will work for lg optimus f6. I used the version 1 and it worked successfully there are new updated to the app that i have not tested.

Hi,
I am looking purchase LG Realm LS620 during blackfriday. Is it possible to root this phone? Please help me with links...
THANK YOU!
Yeah I Used Towel Root it worked just fine then make sure to install SuperSU & Busy Box also search some thing in the play store to fix the writing issue to the SD card after you get root heres a link to the apk for towel root https://towelroot.com/tr.apk :good::good::good:
Yeah towel root works fine, idk if theres any custom recover for it tho, been looking since i got it, ive tried using xposed framework, but its not the same as using cm roms
yeah i have yet to find a custom recovery or any development for that matter but im sure hopefully soon someone will do something with this thing.
Towelroot worked perfect! Thanks
Would just like a custom recovery, I as well have not found one.
I have bricked my LG ls620, any chance of asking someone to rip /system/app for me, or perhaps the entire stock firmware?
Writing issue to the SD Card after using Towel Root with LS620?
Thanks for the info. I should be getting an LS620 today. I would like to disable the activation wizard and I understand the way to do this is to:
1) root phone
2) install free version of titanium backup
3) uninstall LGSetupWizard 4.3.019
Regarding the rooting portion, you mention "search some thing in the play store to fix the writing issue to the SD card after you get root" . I am not sure what this means can you let me know what issues are related to writing to the SD card on this device after rooting with Towel root and what application and process is needed to resolve this issue.
Thanks in advance.

Do you have a copy of your stock rom? Or and update zip i can install from the sd card to re write the entire system?
Yes
Towleroot works perfect!
Even unrooted on newer versions of Android you can't write to the external SD in less you root after that es3 will be able to but I'd you want other apps to you need to use
a app such as SDfix: Kitkat writable micro sd, which I used on my LG Realm, hope this helped

Yes, it is very possible
