Hey everyone,
Just wanted to learn about your experience with the OB Kernel + ROM GB Mods.
My main interests are OC for games and clean, no useless apps ROMs for extended battery life and better performance.
I am also seeking out ROMs that won't bug the Wi-Fi or any other basic functionality of the device.
I was thinking CM7 or maybe NOVA 8. But I'm a noob so i want to hear some of the more experimented users' opinions.
Thanks in advance.
If you need a stable rom, please use nova 8 (froyo)
CM is built from AOSP and has many differences with stock roms. Sure it has more bugs than Nova, another advantage from CM is themes and expanded system settings.
Try it yourself, as long you have clockworkmod recovery you're freely to test CM and Nova which one that suits you.

Thanks for the quick reply @lesp4ul.
1.) When the official GB update from LG comes out I must not update if I install NOVA 8 ?
2.) Themes and expanded settings that you say come with CM are not available on NOVA 8 ?
Off-topic: Love your signature pic. Made myself one too, whenever I'll be able to add it to my signature I will. Can't edit my signature now, for reasons i do not fully grasp.

1. Don't ask for ETA, i don't know dude. Also don't start a thread about it. When the update comes you can upgrade it.
2. Because CM7 is a custom gingerbread build by Team Cyanogen, not based from stock rom. So they can add new features that ordinary rom doesn't have. Try it, nightly #20 and Nova kernel 11c. If you don't like it just flash Nova Rom 8 again.

Cool beans. Thanks a lot Also, I think you misunderstood me there, I wasn't asking WHEN the update will be here, just IF I can upgrade to it if I have another ROM/Kernel on my OB.

Aye, AFAIK if you wanna upgrade to GB (when it's available of course),and you have flashed custom ROM, you should downgrade it to the stock/official so then you can get a notif from the LG Updater if the GB is available

Basically, If i put the NOVA 8 on my phone now, whenever the GB update will be available i'll have to restore the stock 2.2 Froyo I have on it now, right ?

Bottom line:
-I'll try both NOVA 8 & CM7 nightly #20 w/ nova kernel 11c
-see which one I like best
-that's 'bout it
All good ?
Oh sorry, btw you're good to go. Backup your contacts and data first.

Hey, another question about the replacement of ROMs. Is it wise to back-up my phone using Titanium so that more data than just the contacts and messages are saved ?
What I'm asking here is: does Titanium also back-up settings and preferences in apps ? Or the installed apps ? I have never used it before and can't really figure this one out by their description on the market...

titanium backs up EVERYTHING. ur apps (stock+installed and their progress), settings and customizations. to sum it up, titanium backup will backup every single bit of ur phone as an image. hope i helped
But i not recommended you to use titanium backup, especially you are migrating to a different rom like CM7, titanium will mess up your OS. use appmonster to backup your apps to sdcard and manually export your contacts to sdcard, also you can backup your sms with go sms.
I suggest you to use nandroid backup if you wanna revert to your original state.

Back-Up queries.........
A very good thread.....
I have installed over hundreds apps/games........ and I have flashed my ROMs over 20 times and still want to do it..he..he.. (everytime, I have to re-install every single app/game one by one.. tediously!?).
Please advise which is the best tool (Titanium back up/Nandroid.....) that after flashing rom (from Nova to CM7, from Nova to Stock......) I can restored the installed apps/games and that remain the configed of these apps/game...
"I suggest you to use nandroid backup if you wanna revert to your original state.": is this means it also revert the OS to original (ie.: if I up from NOVA 8 to CM7, after restore, it will go back to NOVA 8)?
"use appmonster to backup your apps to sdcard and manually export your contacts to sdcard, also you can backup your sms with go sms." Do I need to Restore every single apps/games after that or only 01 click to restore everything?
Great thanks.

Yeap nandroid is like creating system image, if you ever used norton ghost it's somekind like that. It backups everything from the rom.
Appmonster automatically backup every installed apps. It can do batch install also.
Sent from my LG-P970 using Tapatalk
Never used Norton Ghost. I've used Drive Image XML though which does the same thing, only better. I'm an IT tech
So basically, I'll just have to use:
- nandroid for creating a back-up to restore the phone to its original state, before flashing and upgrading;
- go sms for the SMSes;
- appmonster for back-uping the apps to the SD;
- manual (my own hands ) for exporting the contacts to the SD card.
Thanks for the tip !
Question: Couldn't the back-up of SMSes and contacts be done through the PC Suite ? Or will it mess up something because it won't recognize the phone anymore after flashing and replacing the stock ROM ?
Question #2: @lesp4paul - What do you mean by "titanium back-up will mes up your OS" ?

CM7 does't recognize PCSuite. But can be done in stock ROM, handy if you plan upgrading to stock ROM (Gingerbread) in the coming days.

I don't even see the point in upgrading to the GB coming up in a few days...
I could just flash the 2.2 NOVA 8 now, then when that ICS ROM comes to XDA I'll upgrade to that.
LE: Sorry if this is becoming annoying, but will THIS KERNEL work with THIS ROM ?
Because in the Kernel thread, it says that it mustn't be flashed on NOVA... I am very confused :-??

Hello Community,
I've installed a time ago GingerDX v22
on my Xperia X8. Now theres a new Version out (v24).
I wanted to ask if I should update/upgrade the
version on my phone just with the option Install update.zip
or should I do it like the first installation with full wipe and so on...
And if I should the update.zip will it kill my data and my apps installed on?
Thanks for quick answers that will help.

PS.: Sorry for my bad english if it is bad... xD

I've just tried it.
At my phone it worked without full wipe.
But but I think not everywhere it will work so fine. But if
you don't want to lose all your data (e.g. apps)
just try it. But without warranty that it will work so...

You don't need to make full wipe if you are just updating the version of the ROM. If you are changing the ROM, then a full wipe is needed.
Can you please tell me how it's working, cuz im on GingerDX v022 and i wanna try v024
Anyone facing issues with random auto restart while using this Rom
I need a solution for this..
It worked fine for me, however I never got the google sync to work. You should make sure that no scripts are installed and check your performance settings. (Smartav2 with max 806 and min 245 are most stable settings)

Yes, I came to know about the google sync issues by reading the development forum for this rom. I am ok with that part as its not a full version rom..
but I cant understand why it keeps auto restarting my phone?? really annoying on such an awesome rom.
And ya, wish you could explain how to make sure no scripts are installed....
yeah ,
same with me,
automatically random restart after play games and even connect mass storage.
don't know why,
btw this rom very2 awesome,i like it

Known bug if you have apps installed on SD Card. Just wait for the final release because the MIUI is currently on RC2 meaning it still has bugs. It's currently functional and beautiful now. You just have to cope up to the small bugs you encounter.
MIUI launcher eat too much ram, go to option-launcher setting untick high quality grapics and icon shadow for better performance. if you use darktremor try to move data to sd, i've using for 3 days and never had random reboot.
Well I don't get that prob but restart is because the ace is out of memory....(RAM)
My prob is that I can't ecept calls only call other pepz com.android.phone crashes
I've tried
wiping data,bat,delvik,cach
Flashing gb from odin then flash miui
installing other phone apk's from other cm7's (flashing it from recovery)
chansing to all the baseband's possbile (including ddkq8)

2 what should I chanse it if tried 120dpi and ofcorce stock 160
Some glitches
Luv the visuals in this ROM
Bt there are a few glitches as well and maybe i think the dev must be currently working on that too..
Here are some of them:
There is a major lag time when u rotate the phone (auto-rotate time is quite large)
Many a times when trying to remove SD..phone restarts
Custom themes have problem on the lockscreens (full view is not visible)
Bootanimation doesnt change at all...
The best thing i like about this ROM is that u can select as many no. of recipients for sending messages..a huge like
And several of other ROMs have that smiley in place of [Enter] button..but this one is perfect
Though i wud like the dev to add the feature of replying to contacts directly from call log
Anyways, hats off to the dev for building a gud ROM!!

I'm currently on a buggy minicm7 2.2.0. I'm suspecting the culprit of the bugs is my SD card(A2SD). I'm thinking of re-installing everything from scratch, but then again, there is the good looking minicm9 ics.
So my question is, should I upgrade to minicm9? (I don't have much time to check it myself for trial and error so I'm asking here for your opinions.)
Please convince me why should I do so. Are there any significant functionality that is available on cm7 that is not on cm9? Significant performance drop on games?(though I don't play on my x8 nowadays)
Thanks!
If u use ur pohone day to day and record videos or watch videos from youtube u should use MiniCm7 2.2.0
If not then MiniCm9 is ok if u supercharge it and install this add on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1649187
so it no flash support? Hmmm.. I guess it's fine...

Not Working:
HW Video encoding / decoding
Hi, I tried minicm9.. at first it was cool, even refreshing..
The UI feels revamped, system settings cleaned, messaging better, default launcher is beautiful and it really felt like wonderful..
But after some time of using it, I found it laggy, just opening drawer takes about 1 or 2 seconds, it often restarts, and it also restarts when I try to overclock to over 748MHz (this also happened in minicm7)..
I just felt down, I really like the new feel but the performance was not as good as minicm7, I really hope it gets to a point that it is at par with minicm7
i would suggest you stick with minicm7 2.2.0 cos the minicm9 is extrremely laggy,constant force closing,and its got a crazy battery drain.i flashed minicm9 but reverted to minicm7 cos of the bugs.i feel naa will be working on an update for the minicm9 with fixed bugs ,until then just stick with minicm7 cos most people are reverting to it already.
pls give me a thanks if its helpfull.cos i am a new member.so i can post more comments
I say go with cm9, I flashed it 2 days ago and Im loving it, yes it is not stable yet but it is quite ok, there is a bit lag but you can always install resized apps and v6 supercharger
If u need to use ur phone to watch video daily,either from your phone,or internet,then you should stick with MiniCM7,but if you want something new,try out MiniCM9,i'm using MiniCM9 right now,and i'm happy with it
Advantages of MiniCM9:
-Android 4.0 (ICS)
-Fast Wifi Connection (really2 fast)
-UI just like Galaxy Nexus ( i love it very2 much)
Disadvantages/bug of MiniCM9:
-video not working
-Speaker sound not so good,can use FIX from here : http://www.4shared.com/zip/2g7-UiU2/MiniCM9_Audio_Fix.html
-Quite laggy scrolling,can improve by flashing this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1649187
#as said above you can also use supercharged,i might do it later,but right now i can said it is table for daily use like sms,call,internet,listen to radio,etc...if you have problem in MiniCM9,don't forget to read FAQ first,hope this help you to decide

craaaaazy, ne?
(skip ahead to the end of the post)
MiniCM9 lags as hell, I'll keep the MiniCM7 until the 9 improves.
I personally dont go to ICS due limitations of our hardware.We will never can have full feature of ICSFace unlocked,for example
I had to revert to cm7 based rom...gingerdx to be specific because minicm9 is still laggy, it do not support games and freezes all the time. TO me the biggest culprit was the video playback..its only good enough to show it off to your friends. but im eagerly waiting for full working version...... And there is minicm10 out already.. Its lightweight and smooth..but Both ROMs are similar in performance. you can try it out as well.
Help me!!!

just flash the ROM kernel (nAa, JB, ICS,,,,) and flash the ROM by CWM
'what type of error?
minicm9 is and always will be laggy and slower than minicm7 due to hardware limitations so why bother i have tried almost every rom in here and all are the same at first they are fast and nice but after a while they become slower and laggy so i think a lost my hope

if still the 2nd post above me solution does not work, first flash to stock firmware, flash the gingerbread kernel (alfs, naa) first, format /system, /cache, /data, flash the ics kernel of naa, and again, format /system,/cache,/data, if still, maybe haven't installed the right drivers for your x8, so go into the root directory of your Flashtool then go to drivers, you can manually install the drivers required by your device there for sure
Cm7
I would suggest you to stay on Cm7 cause it is more stable, less laggy, better performances and battery life.
Tried both MiniCM7 and MinCM9 and I must admit ICS is not for our device..:crying:.It lags most of the time and is very unstable.....I would rather recommend MiniCM10 over MiniCM9 any day....:good:but MiniCM7 is bug-less, stable and is for daily use......:highfive:
I would recommend CM7 if you expect performance out of your phone..... but if you need to be on latest androids CM 10 is good.....
But CM9 is very less stable in x8 it keeps on hanging and apps force closes.... CM10 is much better.

Thank you for the post. I was going to post similar question regarding good choices for daily use and just found it.
Mini CM9 is my first try and here are some info on my experience:
I was long time planning using a custom ROM/Kernel and my first choice was Mini CM9, because of all of its features and beautiful look. As other users mentioned, it was running VERY good for a while (maybe the first 2 or 3 days after an install or new install). Anyway, every time (I reinstalled it twice) it gets laggy and I get a lot of "Not responding" messages (Trebuchet and other apps). I've even lost some calls because of "Phone Activity" freezing.
Plus, I could not use wirelless networks using a public hot-spot with sign-in needed. Wireless networks always worked good while using Stock ROM/Kernel, by the way.
CM9 seems to be a very good ROM but, considering my own experience, it should not be for daily use as it was not as stable as I was expecting.
I am preparing my X8 to install a more stable Kernel/ROM and, If you guys excuse me, I would to ask you about the Mini CM7 and GingerDX ROMs. Please, if you tried both or even GingerDX only, let me know how was it.
Thank you guys! I'll let you know about my new ROM/Kernel choice as soon as I decide which one to install.
Hi,
About a year ago I bought my wife an i9000 off ebay. It is the UK unlocked version. It came with the stock rom. I rooted it and have installed various different roms over the year. At first, the phone was fine, but its gradually got slower and now, it's almost unusable. The phone constantly lags, hangs, crashes etc. It drives the wife up the wall and I get it in the neck.
I finally decided to go back to the last official gingerbread rom to see if that would help (XXJVU), but its the same.
I am starting to think that the phone simply isn't powerful enough to run today's versions of the apps a smartphone should be able to run. Her list of 'must have' apps, on top of what's installed as standard is as follows:
Apps that will run in the background:
Facebook app and widget
accuweather app and widget
BBC news app and widget
stock calander widget
viber
Apps that will be opened and closed:
skype
memoires diary app
adobe reader
google translate app
samsung mobile print app
CTK (Czech news app)
Is this list of apps excessive? Should an i9000 be able to run today's versions of these apps without any problems? A lag here and there won't bother her, it's the freezing and crashes that drive her crazy.
If the above should be possible, could someone recommend a ROM or ROM/kernel combo that would work? I don't care if its stock or custom, or what version of android it is, I just want the phone not to freeze.
Thanks

My suggestion is gamerzrom ive been running it and its perfect no freezes or crashes and ive been running much more than you mentioned above. The phone is still going strong
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda app-developers app
Hi, if u already suitable with flashing, then its easy, GB got really good sense on videos n app but its to buggy to use, Using ram manager n sometimes reboot ur fone will clearing cache so ur fone will be fast again, but only on limited time. Cache will start to bulky n slowing down da fone.
If ur familiar with flashing, then upgrading ur fone to ICS or JB is wise decision. As 4.x Android have a good ram manager n easy to use, and did say, clearing cache would be good but sometimes check ur internal sd if it get too bulky. Insufficient space will makes operation apps to became failure as app need space to launch either in RAM or sd.
and still, if ur fone still became lag or slow, after upgrading, i suggest u use some script available here in XDA to make ur fone systems manageble like supercharger or fly on script.
but be xtra careful and read carefully before doing something. Doesnt want to risk bricking ur fone rite, so Good Luck

Ok, I've installed the latest slim bean, and I want to try the mods you suggested above. Could you explain what you've installed from slaid and supercharger?
Have you patched services.jar?
It all looks a bit complicated to me..
Thanks.

Its known that antutu scores and any benchmark scores mean nothing the performance shows in games. Benchmark scores change if you make 50 tests itl be always different .
Yes i suggest gamerzrom because it has everything in one package no scrips needed. The dev tried everything out and used only the best in his rom and so far its flawless

GamerzRom it's closed at the moment.
I haven't tried it so I can't comment on it's performance.
I've flashed countless Roms and in my experience I'm most satisfied with C-RoM Mix.

if u choose GB, just go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2273317 and choose any 2 attached link (CM or Stock (not both) ) then choose what Ram Manager u wanna use and copy it to internal sd. Boot to recovery and flash RAM MANAGER first, then da Fly On script after. Reboot. Thats all.
If u from ICS/JB Rom (custom or stock)
Hav u rooted? Root first and update ur superuser binary. And ur chosen rom must have kernel that support init.d (see if u got init.d folder in /system/etc/ thats all. or juz ask ur ROM dev
1. Download script manager from GPlay
2. Download this script (.sh) http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1200973&d=1342401278 and dont change anything. Save da script inside root of internal sd
3. Go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2273317 and download da 1 of 2 last attachment (choose it, CM or STOCK depend on ur ROM. Most custom rom based on CM Nightlies)
4. Choose any RAM Manager u wanna used (for me its hard multitasking)
5. save it at da root of ur internal sd.
6. Run script manager and choose da script from supercharge RC10, dont forgot to tick da skull (permission from superuser).
7. Read carefully da instruction in script manager. As it will tell u everything, u can choose no for all except da one that change ur services.jar, click yes for it.
8. After da script done, it will ask u to reboot. Juz say no and it will come back to da main menu, Now u can choose again of 34 option (maybe got more option, i juz forgot about it) from script. Juz see da option to unsupercharger and choose it (coz u just want it to patched da services.jar, not to use da supercharge. Only RC10 have da option to alter da services.jar quite easily or if u wanna da hard way, see here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16635544&postcount=2 )
9. Follow any of da instruction. , it juz wanna to revert back to normal, except for da services.jar
10. Reboot. Now u hav alter ur services.jar.
Now reboot to recovery, wipe cache and dalvik cache.
1. In recovery, choose to install zip, dan choose RAM MANAGER first.
2. After it done, choose da fly on script and flash it.
3. Reboot after it done.
in case of update da script,
1. delete da RAM Manager in /system/etc/init.d and delete file named ram_manager. (or if ur recovery got option to clear init.d juz pick it.)
2. Reboot to recovery and as usual, repeat da above instruction (juz for da script, altering services.jar already been done) and dont forget, any changes must be followed by wiping cache.
thats all and if in case u dont hav guts to try, dont do it.
Wow. Thanks for the detailed instructions!
I have followed them and done everything you said. The phone seems to run a lot smoother now. I just hope that it stays that way and doesn't start to slow down after time.
The slim rom comes with the semaphore kernel which does not seem to have the ability to overclock. Can I install a new kernel with that rom to enable overclocking?
Thanks
Semaphore can overclock the system. However it needs it's own app - semaphore manager. With that app you'll get a few nifty features on top so it's worth downloading anyway.
find semaphore manager from stores
however, any circumstances occur over OC will not be my reeponsibilities.

screenlock on i9000 and way forward
Hi guys,
cool to see there are still some SGS activities going on with that device. Since I have my GNEX I did not look at my SGS anymore.
So, had it in my hands yesterday and thought about updating it.
Problem I have is: I can not access the phone anymore because I dont remember the screenlock anymore (numbers) ;-(
The phone is fully rooted and unlocked with a
Darky Rom and
Dark kernel
Via the lockscreen I can boot to Recovery (CWM) or Download mode (as well as via the buttons of course)
Question: is there a similar tool like the Galaxy Nexus Toolkit for backing up or do a nandroid with the SGS?
I guess I have 2.3.x version running currently.
Well the external SD i backuped already - but I am afraid there is still some stuff i would like to get before wiping..
Would be great if you could help me out.

Lol man, you can't use official Facebook app on the phone, It's the slowest s*it ever made . Use m.facebook.com in browser, or any alternative Facebook client instead, official Facebook app kills all the performance .
Install GamerzROM, delete the MORPH folder from the .zip file BEFORE installation. Do NOT restore any apps using TitaniumBackup or similar. If your phone gets too slow, use Clean Master to clean the cache, that helps too (use especially this app!). Do NOT use custom launcher, use Xperia launcher, which is pre-installed in GamerzROM, it's really fast . Do NOT install any additional performance tweaks, because the best ones are pre-installed in GamerzROM.
My phone is blazing fast with these settings, hope I helped . BTW také jsem z České Republiky, zdravím
Edit: I just noticed that there ain't no download link for GamerzROM 3.0, so you can just wait for the next release .
