Hello Guys,
starting with a ton of thanks to all of you, that let this place be the wonderful place it is for people looking for some news and advices etc. etc. etc.
and absolutly sorry in advance if i havent find what i'm looking for, boring people with the noob thread,but that's it, i've a couple of questions.
i finally got my LG Thrill 4G and i live in Italy and quite everything is working fine with the stock rom, but i've yet customized my old (bad) Motorola Backflip with a GB Rom,and i would like to test some customized Rom,but for example is hard to find the Rom, cause dead links, and i have a couple of questions:
1-i've rooted the phone and installed the CWM (and it works, cause i accidentally delete some system file and done a restore with a saved backup through the recovery) i've also downloaded from market the Rom manager ,but doesn't recognized my recovery and ask me again to flash the cwm, but it shows just the Optimus v and the Optimus 2x options not the thrill or the O3D. so the question is, how is it possible that it doesn't recognize it? is a problem between the download from the market,i'm pretty sure to have followed instructions in the right way, cause it works. why there isn't the right choiche for the thrill?some suggestions? Thanks in Advance
2-i'm in Italy so i can't use a lot of bloat like every kind of at&t stuff and i was wondering if ,like for the Rom customized,there is a way just to trash all of this things i never use,cause sometimes i received message you cant trash it.
there is a particolar procedur to follow to don't lose some system file uninstalling them?
and finally the third
i've seen that some of the Rom of the O3D i can use on the thrill,there some problems with the radio,or some advice in using an "european" Rom in an usa phone?
thanks to all
Return it as quick as you can..i'm serious

It's a fantastic phone as far as hardware. The majority of us are a bit bitter over the lack of software support from manufacturer/carrier in the US. If you have the 30 day return policy, I'd give the phone a chance.
I really like mine. Stick with the stock ROM, just remove all of the bloat ware. Other ROMS aren't ready yet. Maybe they never will be, but at least stock works.
I used the Galaxy One-Click Root program and(yes it worked) then removed all of the garbage AT&T junked it up with. Runs great other than the camera acting wonky every now and again. I agree about staying with official build rom. As bad as I want Gingerbread, I'm not wanting the headache of what works, and what doesn't work.

i think it too , and here in italy we dont' have a policy like this, here the O3D costs about 600 euros, and is really not affordable.
but in any case i've got mine and i'm really happy with it.
just the battery is a bit sad,but nothing major looking at galaxy s2 or other smartphone.
i'm very glad about it.

What i was trying to say is that i would like to restore a backup
Made on stock rom in a customized rom,is possible?
i've solved the md5 mismatch thanks to the procedure.
But now i have again my stock rom,with battery sucking a lot
And bloatware,some suggestions?

extended battery (haven't tried it, though)
Another silly question:
I've tested a couple of roms and i'm trying using a O3D,but i've read that GB Roms have 3d issues.
Wich is one Froyo based Rom that goes fast and stable,without battery draining and can still use 3d and hdmi?
If i update the baseband to GB,i can restore or install Froyo Roms,without change it?
Many thanks to all.
P.s.
Just to let you know, in Italy,on my thrill,
Thriller,and Thrill_seeker are good,but also the doomed Froyo.
The stock Rom of O3D is good too,but still drain batt.
Thanks to all.
Stavo pensando se c'e' bisogno di qualche traduzione in italiano per i miei compaesani,che come me hanno acquistato un bel Thrill.
Saluti.

Oh boy.... Another one of these threads.
Short answer.... PICK one, they are all better than stock. There are so many roms out there that only YOU can judge what you want and need in a rom.
Everyone will have a different answer for you. For instance I say Firefly, but only because it works for me
You can't go wrong choosing any of them.

That is unanswerable every single phone is different, and people have widely different tastes. The trick is finding a rom that works best FOR YOU.

dude, youre takin this a little too seriously, im just lookin for a good suggestion to start with, and i know every phone is different, thats why i put what phone i have. thanks
LMAO........
The suggestions are to try them out yourself........
They are all better than stock........
You have to figure it out for yourself..........
And he meant that every Captivate is different.......If you did some more reading...you would know what he meant........
The "all in one place" is the first 3 pages of the dev section........http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=706 any thread that starts with [ROM] is what your looking at
if you want a fast rom i would recommend the cyanogen mod 7.
people talk about how its unstable and has bad battery life
but its all wrong,,,
from my experience cm7 has been a stable like all the other roms but just faster..
It's the fastest you'll ever get right now and it has all different customization you can do.
so try it out.
Might want to try cm6 its outdated but fast and more reliable

ya, any file i put on the root of the phone gives me the same answer, whether its cwm or update.zip
You have 3E recovery.
The easiest way to get around it is to Flash the .tar version of speedmod with the full version of odin.
This only works on 2.2 If you need any more help. I will be around for a bit.

good answer! but if you are on 2.1 you can put the new rom on the sd card first and then flash speedmod. it wont boot into the rom but will give you recovery to flash the new rom.
yes, no need to root just odin flash speedmod then flash a rom.
if you want complete and reliable and well polished then flash andromeda, it's a bit older version of 2.2 but the work was great.
if you want super fast flash something that says js8, i hear the paragon rom has a great kernel. id say cm7 but maybe you should work up to that, it isn't hard but you need odin to flash back if you have problems, there aren't any 2.2 kernels or roms with the proper update script and binary to be flashed from the recovery that cm7 uses.

Nice. That makes sense that it will work.
OCLF (one click lagfix) use ext2. Titanium or some system app remover app to get rid of bloat and you should be good to go. At the end of the day different ROMs and such are for asthetics... no one has over 340 mg of Ram available so performance not much different from one to the next once lagfix installed. Until you OC/UV and that is tuff to maintain stability with.
Now we all know that there are no "Best Rom" threads but sense this one has changed course ill leave it open.
Each rom runs differently for each person. This is due to the many different ways we each use our phones. Once you get the hang of it, try out a few and find your favorite. Good luck on your quest.

Questions pertaining to specific roms should be asked in their thread. Most times you're not the only one that's had that problem and it's already been addressed. That translates into search and read.
but can't find an answer.... is it doable? Also, what other mods can I do to it? I wish XDA had a section for each version of the tab, I have a huge headache from trying to find my answer.... thanks guys
bump..... Please guys, help me out. I tried rooting last night but failed, guess I tried the root from a different tab... so please help me out... I'm getting ready to smash this thing
Really, no one can help me out? ... maybe another forum has more courteous members.

Do you think that bumping your post two hours after posting it is courteous?
I just got a Galaxy Tab WiFi myself, but I did my research *before* I bought it. No Gingerbread is available, that I know of. There are not many alternative ROMs for the WiFi only model.
What did you use in your rooting attempt? The only two ways I know are with a Windows app or with z4root, an Android app. I haven't tried either one, here is a link to z4root on this forum.

SuperOneClick should be able to help you root your Tab.
Here's the Noob Rooting Guide with links and downloads.
Always do your research. The Development forums will be one of your best resources for your Tab.

No offense but if you're going to criticize you might as well not even comment to avoid any frustrations or arguments as a result. Thank you for the link, I was able to find z4 and lag fix yesterday.... applied both but i might roll back on the lag fix since I have no haptic feedback now unless anyone knows of a fix? I wasn't able to find anything on Google... wifi only tab and p1010 aren't too popular searches.

*sigh* waiting for this too..
****ty Samsung , is it so hard to just make an official Gb for this little tab considering the workforce they have at their disposal.
At one point I had heard that the Sprint stock GB (2.3.4) update worked on the Wifi only tabs, but I don't have a wifi only to test with.
I haven't heard of any alternative roms for the wifi only version.

Check with Kies, see if you have a firmware update. I only have a P1000, but maybe it's similar.

EDIT: from other answers here the Sprint GB 2.3.4 ROM stock or rooted sounds the way to go, so it looks like this should work for you as it did for me on my Verizon CDMA tab.
It's hard to say for sure, experimentation is part of the fun, but killing the tab isn't. I didn't find any definitive answers on flashing a Sprint CDMA ROM on to a Verizon CDMA Galaxy Tab (for example), so I decided to try for myself:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1255339
I suspect doing a FULL ROM flash would be a *very* bad idea (it seems doing that with a GSM ROM on other (non-GSM) tabs KILLS it). However, the technique I used was only to apply the kernel and filesystems, so I would *think* if you had a backup from before (always best to have a backup anyway, right?) you could always revert. You may want to look around and check to see if stock WIFI images are out there (I don't know for sure) but the Voodoo or CwM (ClockworkMod) recovery backups should be fine either way.
Then if you apply the filesystem and kernel files from 2.3.4 and they don't work you should be able to revert (I would assume, I can certainly flash back and forth on mine). I would *think* the kernel supports vanilla hardware + CDMA additionally (i.e. you don't need it, but it doesn't hurt), but may be fine.
But again, unless you're prepared to take the risk, I cannot say for sure, you can wait and see if anyone else chimes in, but that's my take.

I have the P1010 also and from what I've heard, the two models (P1010 and P1000) have different hardware which makes the latter model possible for the ginger update while ours likely will never get it.
Enjoy it for what it is. That's all I can say.

No offence but you are the one who was rude by bumping your topic after 2 hours and also accusing people who didnt answer as not courteous, so obviously you are going to get criticism.
Your problem is that you cant be bothered to go read or search and expect people to jump on your topic and bring all the info to you. This is XDA-developers, not tech support, try and at least help yourself first before demanding answers.

You can save a flashable ROM in the sdcard. Then if the tab got bricked, you can insert the sdcard in and reflash again. But i don't recommend doing this because me myself never flashed my tab, only my nexus one.
Hi everyone, i'm currently using Nova v7 (yes V7, i was too lazy to upgrade from 7 to 8, cuz i had alot of apps installed... wtv )
My question is, how can i go from Nova v7, to GB ? without brick my OB.
i would appreciate if u could tell me in detail cuz im still a newbie on this things, like if i need erecovery, CWM or any of that.
appreciate the time spent,

If you're not from Korea theb GB isn't out yet, except CM7. You need to wait a few days for the official to come out.
And if you want CM (nightly), then flash it from CMW doing a full data, cache, dalvik wipe before flashing (maybe after too).

Connect your phone to the PC, install the LG Phone software that came with the phone, and use the software update feature. Simple as that. Please note however that GB *is not released yet* so don't ask when it will be released as nobody knows anything else other than "soon".

You can use KDZ method or LG Software Updater (B2CApp)
Remember to make full wipe before flashing or you'll get a bootloop.

Hey ruibullseye, better then asking here is if you use the search and some of your time to learn stuff. Almost all the usual OB fw upgrade/change questions are already answered in this subforum. Same for most problems you might get into. I started using android phone about a month ago. Following the forum around i can say it only took me about 5-6 hours to get familiar with the basic hacks for this phone. And also unbricking procedures and emergecy stuff, which i needed...twice. you cannot avoid it, it will happen to you at least once...
The truth is out there. Use search. ;-) if any issues, ask. But be sure to read the rules before posting.
Cheers.
Sent from my LG-P970 using XDA App
Ok,since noone simplyy answers the question, i will. Even though u are right that learning by doing is still the best way... but why brick the phone? To find a way to unbrick and recover everything?
Well first i suggest u backup everything with titanium backup(can get it in store) then i first bootet into recovery, then did a full, davlic and battstats wipe, returned to menu, chose backup and restore and simply restored froyo. Then reboot and everything is fine and u can keep checking for updates. This is the procedure i chose, which surely is not the best and fastest, but the savest for me. Hope u understand my english and also have success ;-)
And sorry, because I didnt see some of the advices you gave to him, or I just found em to superficial, so I posted a guid, which as I think can even be understood by a complete NOOB
Hi everyone,
I still have Nova v7 on my Optimus Black.
But im thinking about changing to Gingerbread, and install Marvel v5.
Can someone, take some time and explain me in detail what i need to do to make that happen?
Note that my erecovery, CWM and all that stuff, is still from the time when i installed NOVA v7.
Im really a noob, on this things. i dont know what erecovery, and CWM and all that stuff are for .
another question, any way to save my games and data that are on the phone and not on SDCARD? (or do i need to format SD CArd aswell )?
Appreciate the time spent,

Didnt you also feel like: "WDF? WDF? WDF? What do I have to to? WDF? Dont understand...? What's that mean? Can someone explain? Am I really so much of a noob? I thought I understand a lot of computers, but now I feel like a complete idiot... How should I EVER get a custom ROM to my device? "
Those were my thoughts a few months ago... And now see all my posts, how to's and so on here... The main thing is: Stay cool, help out as good as you can, dont flame, cause 1 day you ll need help too and be thankful for a kind advice, that is being given.
So guide that man kindly to his goal (or whatever you call it) and feel happy, cause you really helped some1 out.
I just couldnt reply longer, cause I had to learn meanwhile and my traffic was full, so I had to ask my neighbor, to share his WIFI with me
and what about my data i have on my phone (not SDCARD)
anyway to retrieve that?
BTw N00B THANKS ALOT FOR ALL YOUR HELP SO FAR, and Straight answers. =D
Hope you made a nandroid, like suggested in my NOOB HOW TO... :-/ Backup everything with titanium Backup. This is gonna save all settings, game data, sms, contacts,... contacts can also be saved by syncing with googlemail, or other accounts, or you export them to the sdcard (go to contacts --> menu button --> export TO SDCARD/USIM) or with the LG app (LG Suite i think it is called).
Hope you didnt delete everything already...
Oh and there is a thanks button below the posts

Calm down. We are becoming a lazy bunch i tell ya that. Nobody wants to read. They just wants answers imidiately. That's no problem, someone will always help. What i can't stand is, never saying "thank you" people. If somebody helps you a simple thank you should be in order. Nobody gets paid for helping....
And don't forget the times you were a noob, desperately looking for help. So always help others.
Before all that READ people, You can not believe what i've learned in a month by simply reading.
just a quick question for a quick answer.
Basicly Marvel v5. its already a Gingerbread rom right?
because i was thinking that i needed to install the official 2.3 to be able to install MArvel.
No, you can directly flash marvel, zeus,... no need to up or downgrade before, except you flash a stock rom, without ext4 file support

Here are both files in one if you want them.
I just updated with LG updater in recovery mode and downgraded from
V20C without going back to stock. Then rooted with Megatron
with no problems.
I am not taking any credit for either of these files, just giving a good secure
download location for both files in 1 spot.

I'm not quite sure what you mean by unlocked in your first question. but to answer your second question: thrillz gb will not work with v20p. You'll have to flash something like v20c.
Unlocked and Jailbreak is an iPhone thing !
Please speak slowly to him,......he just came from an iPhone.
No, you will not have to unlock or Jailbreak every time you do a
rom upgrade. Although sometimes you may have to re-root the phone, it
is a very easy process.
Thanks,
Dwayne
PS; Just leave your thrill stock for now until the awesome team of Dev's
on here come up with some fixes for V20P. That will make it simplest for you.

LOL !!
Hey, just wait till the end of this week, Flash V20P KDZ and run the Biohazard Rom... Youll be happy if you .o
PS: Battery life sucks no matter what
thaxs
well thanks 4 your help
i guess ill do that... but how long does battery lasts?? i think i can live recharging once a day
Your lucky if the batt on this phone lasts a day with moderate use.
You can always buy one of those 3500 mah batteries on ebay for like 15-20
bucks. and get about 75% more life.
Later
