Hey people,
I have a Lg optimus black p970 with 2.3.4 version and V20d software version.
I really want to speed up my phone as much as I can. There are some applications that cannot be uninstalled.
What can I do to speed up my LG? Root? Rom? Both? I really dont know what these are but I feel they are familiar
Thank you for your help guys
and sorry for my English

To uninstall apps, you need root. To get root, you need to read my noob-how-to. To have better speed, you need another ROM, like Zeus, to get a custom ROM, you need root, to get root see above So if you have a custom ROM then, like Zeus, most useless apps will be uninstalled, but can be restored, if you need them. Come back if you have any questions left

Hello and if I postet this thread in a wrong way, do not be mad at me....
I have 2 Questions that I could not find a good answer (maybe I didn't searched enough ...)
1. WHAT IS THE BEST CUSTOM ROM for the OB?
In the last period, the nightly CM reached no 61.... does anyone installed it? how is it? I wanna know if there are other roms that are stable...or, if the 61 from CM is ok. I am using GPS, 3G connection, Bluetooth, WiFi constantly on my phone and I wanna install a ROM that is most stable (in special at these things...)
2. DOES THE KDZU STILL WORKING?
I found some posts, that says the KDZU is blocked somehow from the LG Guys... is it true? Does someone installed lately a ROM with KDZ ? It worked?
I now am on V20N ... how can I install a CM Rom? I have to downgrade to V10 versions? If yes, HOW? With KDZU?
In the last lines, i wanna thanks all of U guys, for the good work U R doing, sorry 4 my english and one more thing:
If I have the V20N version installed, when the official update will be available in my country (Romania - Orange) will the LG Update Suport notice me? and, will I be able to install it via LG Update?
Thanks and, sorry for the lenght of my post.
Less posting, more thinking would be nice. Serach smartflash optimus black, cyanogen discussion thread, v20 romania orange and all other things u need, put em in to search (it s on the top right, if you havent foind it yet) oh and r&d testtool could be interesting. And now start reading.

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.

if you change the language in system settings it should change all into the desired language.... not too sure abt 3rd party apps tho but i reckon some will change too....
correction to your above sentence you dont use a rom to root.... you root first then flash a rom. you can root using the methods stated in Nooby's thread
for OB now we have quite a couple of custom roms check
Noobys thread
and now i see there is another new one based on GB called "LEZO Rom" but am not too sure abt the language support on that one
the Cyanogen rom is still a nightly so unless you know how to muck ard with your phone id recommend you wait till they have a stable release.
or alternatively after root you could just remove non important apps and see how it goes from there first (that's what i did =P) a list of stock apps which are safe to remove can be found here
hope this helps..... oh and give thanks to the OP of the individual threads =)

Hi,
Thanks for all this information, i has seen this nooby post, help a lot.
Still CyanogenMod is a nightly rom, i think there are no big problems to use it.
I hope, that the ICS come soon to our phone; so i think its better that use a custom rom.
Thanks again.
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,
best regards,
ruibullseye
Read my noobguide already? If not, that s a good point to start, then come back again and tell me, whats still unclear to you

See I also have got that problem, of not being able to stay kind, but mostly (at least I hope so) I think back, how it was, when I was a total NQQB. Then I always remember, how cool it was, when some1 guided me step by step and giving me links, information, or whatever I needed... Think back of the first days of yours here... 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
