I noticed that the LG Esteem is now officially out on MetroPCS ( metropcs.com/shop/PhoneDetails.aspx?ProductId=LGMS910(Phones) ).
This is apparently the same or very similar hardware as the revolution, so this release should help with development progress on our phones.
I searched LG's open source site to see if, by chance, they had released the source code for the OS on this phone yet, but it's not there yet. I'm not too surprised. If anyone wants to check it out, the URL where I searched for this is lg.com/global/support/opensource/opensource.jsp. The model for the esteem is MS910 whereas the revolution is VS910.
I'm surprised they didn't give any info about the gingerbread update seeing as the esteem almost identical phone has it.

Just an FYI!! Gingerbreak isn't working on super1click on the Esteem for root
http://androidforums.com/esteem-all-things-root/416728-lg-esteem-2-3-gingerbread.html
found this as an alternative.. Gingerbreak apk.

This may not work either. Looks like Gingerbreak has been patched..

I just got a g2x with gingerbread today. However, I can't root it.
Any advice? I can't live without cm7
By the way, It's really fast, and it has no bugs so far. The only issue is screen bleeding, but it doesn't bother me at all.
Post in the G2X forum
NVFlash a Froyo build and root
Have you tried the newest SuperOneClick?
Sorry, I didn't know there was a g2x forum.
I tried superoneclick, and it didn't work.
Can you please answer me one more question, since you mentioned nvflashing. So I don't need to root my phone before I do the nvflashing?

Correct, you don't. It works on a much lower level.
Does the gingerbreak app not work?
Sent from my LG-P990 using Tapatalk
it has many issues.
Is there anyway someone can pull the radio from the Thrill 4g make it a cwm zip file or img push via ADB . So i can use with O3D CM7 ????
I second this request, it would be nice to test out some of the o3d roms and still be able to have "4g"
Sent from my LG-P925 using XDA App
yea but it kinda sucks 200 views and junior devs cant even accomplish this im so sad
I'm wondering if it's not so much a can't as a don't want to. It seems most of the developers are moving to other phones and aren't quite as thrilled with the thrill.
with the Galaxy S 2 coming out oct 2nd i think there taking there talents that route i myself might switch to the darkside if thats the case
Anyone know how to extract the radio from the stock rom? From there we could try using the stock radio and ril with optimus roms..
Edit: or more specifically, does anyone know WHERE the radio image is stored?

Rogers p925g getting 2.3.5 , figured you guys would be excited since its the same phone as your thrill.

So it's a gingerbread baseband I assume?
Most likely will not be rootable.
Does the Roger's p925 have 4g?
Yes it has 4g, its the same phone. I installed the 21b on mine though and dont know how im gonna install the rogers update when its released tomorrow. Hope someone can get the kdz file.
Sent from my LG-P920 using XDA App
Just flash a froyo kdz.. It will detect it's not up to date and automatically flash rogers firmware... well I think lg made it this way...
Is it possibly for any of you to make a NANDROID of the system and upload it?

Depends on what software you have but BrokenOut is pretty much it unfortunately.

Probably could have left "for now" off of that. If it doesn't have more development by now, it never will.

I say 'for now' for a reason
I AM working on some stuff. 3 themes and kernel. Thank you very much.
Quote of the day: "Optimism brings about innovation."
Not the other way around, bro.
****btw CM9 is STILL in development for our LG Revolution.
Sorry if I seem skeptical. Its just that there was talk about cyanogen last year and nothing much ever came of it, nor has much ever came of the other rumored Roms that were talked about. I hope I'm proved wrong because no Android should have only one developer.

Well.... there is Broken Out 3.0 which opened the door for roming on this device....
Eclipse Rom.... which was second
Black Plague 1.0 which is IMO the best of the options.... including the kernel that comes as a separate flashable zip .... it has the best on battery life as well as lagfree performance and undervolting.... also has a higher charge rate included.... and zram swap enabled....
There is also Holo 3.2.6 which is essentially a themed rom.....
Ninjroid is an option as well....
Oh and Plagued Optimus V1....
You can find all these here..... it just takes a bit of searching and you will have everything you need at your finger tips....
Oh and kernel wise .... there is a flashable blitzkrieg ..... plague kernel.... and popcorn kernel....
this is incomplete but it does list the best of the best

are there any ICS roms for the LG Spectrum that anyone knows of? I've heard of leaks about updates for it, but I can't find anything out about it. thanks

The leak ends in bricks and wiped IMEI blocks... No ics roms because the leak was too buggy .... It's fixable after wiping the IMEI but you get no 4g and almost no functionality

I'm having zero luck getting any of the CM 10.x ROMs to load on my Spectrum. Someone over at CM said to check for updated bootloaders and radios. Does anybody know what the latest updates are?
I'm running with CWM 6.x for recovery.
Thanks in advance for any pointers!!
ROM Porting
Why can't anyone work on porting these ROM's to the vs930
why post about the vs920 here?
i am curious as to why this phone does not have its own thread. it needs to be available in the device selection list and i intend to make it happen. i cant find it except by using the general search tool. i cant find old roms for the phone here (gingerbread rom files, mirrors or anything helpful to restore to stock) so that we can do something useful for it.
Was tring to buy Need for Speed: Most Wanted, and its says its not availible in my country. So i take its a build.prop issue... So do anyone has any build.prop tips or fingerprints to get play store to see im from the states..

All I did was change ro.product.model to "ro.product.model=P920" and I can see it. I was using 920 for a few reasons, should work with 925 as well. I don't want to buy it so I'm not pressing the Accept & buy button so not sure if it is really working or not. Were you able to get this far?
Ok thanks ill give it a shot....

That didn't work for me with P925..I also had to change ro.product.name to cosmo_310_410. Which caused lgesystemserver continually force close. I then removed it from system/app both apk and odex file.. Now all is well. Seems it is a file used for ota which we don't want.

NP, apparently losing connection while flashing certain things can really screw up a phone. I had to go through insurance they are sending me a LG Escape. So looks like as soon as I plan on coming back to the scene I'm switching phones. Sorry guys but if you get an Escape I should be over there working on stuff.
xbsall has a new custom Rom that play store will work perfectly right from the start...I highly recommend this Rom.
go to O3D development thread.
