Currently its due for september.
seriously though, its released when its ready. No sooner.
And if the devs have to take the time to answer questions like this, then it will further delay the release.
If you really want to find out, read what alterbridge/pittbul have posted in the official thread in the dev section, like the rest of us.
Oh my God i can't wait for Overcome 2.1.

For me personally, i really need the auto-coffee-vending tweak, aswell as the flamethrower option.
Sent from my walking,talking,fingerlicking good braai.
I think we forgot to mention in the Changelogs that it will also turn your Tab into a microwave oven and a foldable car...
To the OP,
Follow the changelogs and release developments (when they happen) on teamovercome.net or on the main Overcome thread here on XDA
This is a bit of a pointless thread
All I need more from overcome are normal battery stats .... these are very annoying, every time I look at then I think I have android os bug ...

I seem to be spending most of my xda time on the sgs2 section....I'm happy with my tab, so just pop in now and again to see what is new. Basically to see if cm7 is matured, and also to see what wizardry the overcome team have produced.
But the sgs2 has tons more development(more is not necessarily better though, seeing as people just seem to be releasing 'themed' roms, nothing original apart from villainrom), but its a lot to keep up with

Overcome 2.01 crashes after upgrade from Overcome 1.6
Hi, I am new to the forum so please bear with me.
I had previously installed Overcome 1.6 on a Telstra Galaxy tab; I ran it for around 2 month with no hiccups. I recently updated to Overcome 2.01 to have video on skype; however ever since the upgrade the Tab is really unstable. It crashes every time I try to look for directions from google maps while on the road.
The crash is so severe that it won’t go past the overcome boot logo after restart. I reinstalled a couple of times with the same result. I also tried following the guide to step 6 and see if it also happened on the “factory fresh gingerbread” form; and this time it crashed as soon as I used the browser over wi-fi. The crash is as severe, the tablet shows a lot of pop up errors after boot and then it boots itself again.
Can I revert back to Overcome 1.6 while the new version (Android 2.3.4) is released; or I can’t go back from gingerbread to froyo?
Thank you for advising.
Cheers,

Hi There,
I indeed followed the instructions to the line the 3 times and the result is always the same.
I did notice that on the last step when loading the rom itself, the screen flickers a few times and during the "loading kernel" line a few blue lines appear; the process still finishes normally.
Should I use the Telstra modem file instead of the one on the JK3 folder?
Cheers,
hi carludo
crash while jusing wifi maybe the wrong modem. you are from australia?
is it a euro or asian tab? so look for the right modem. many times flash
the same maybe wrong.
best wishes to downunder.
Hi There,
Correct, it is a Telstra Galaxy tab, I used the modem file in the JK3 folder as per the instructions; I will give it another try and use hte modem file from that Testra restock thread and see if it makes a difference.
I will let you know later tonight how it goes.

Downloaded decrappified 1.1. Computer has a bad usb port and i think it disconnected before it was finished downloading. At this point the phone became stuck in cwm, so I erased user data and reset settings. The phone then said i had a bad sim card, but two replacements didnt fix it. I bypassed the sim card with up, down, search, home and the decrappified seemed to have flashed, but the phone now resets itself every 30 seconds or so.
I'd like to at least get this phone back to stock so i can take it in. been using my wifes old purple curve for the last 2 months. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

My wife told me if I bricked my phone, I would have to go back to using the Cricket Wireless phone we had. YUCK. "Again" she says as she is reading over my shoulder. Anyhow.... stay calm, all is fine. In the forums there is a way to fix it. The phone is unbrickable. LG thought of everything. So diagnose the issue, and look in the forums. You will probably need ADB and stock programming, you can search our forums for ADB and you should track it all down. If you run into issues you can go to IRC the channel we have there is #lgrevolution and someone might be there to help you. It took Cubed 5 minutes to fix my phone, but it took 5 hours for him to come on IRC. I will try to dig up somethings. But you will need ADB so go get that.
Yeah, that blackberry is one hell of a leap backwards, nevermind the comments i get for carrying a purple phone. Even the wife likes to poke fun.
Ive been looking through the archives some and not sure what route to go, not farmiliar with ADB but i'll start looking into that.

Decrappified is a Froyo Rom, the Revo is now on Gingerbread. Either restore your back up, or download and install GingerVolt Rom.

If you didn't make a back up, there is a nandroid in the the development section. When did you get your phone? How long ago did you root it? Do you have Froyo or Gingerbread? If you had Ginger, of course Mt is right, you would do the Gingervolt. But you gotta take it back to your stock to get rid of decrap. Most of your answers will be in the Development section of our forums.
I didn't make a back up, so that isn't an option. I rooted and then broke the phone 2 to 3 months ago, i am not sure if that was before gingerbread or not. I guess i'll search the development section for answers on getting back to stock.

I disagree. I Hard Bricked my Revo. Won't get into details as it's not important and I managed to find a local seller via Craigslist for same day replacement.
What happened is a flash occurred that should've failed, but didn't. The power button would no longer function and the 'failsafe' usb, no battery recovery method would not even work either. I would get a quick response when pulling the battery with USB plugged in, but then it would fail beyond that. Have since then destroyed the board due to some very private files located on internal board that were 'in transition' and couldn't chance being recovered by other parties for security purposes. I do, however, have a nice parts phone, such as screen, body, and battery cover.
Anyhow, moral to the story.. YES, the Revo CAN BE BRICKED!

Also, if it was closer to 3 months ago then it was going to be froyo, right? Find the v4 stock and flash that. I'd link the thread but I'm on my Revo. : /
I found a rooted stock rom posted by thecubed, currently downloading that to my sd card. Anyone see a problem using that? Also found some tot files for stock. I think i had ver 6, but my phone wont let me check. Does it make a difference which one I use if i go that route?

You are nit making this easy, lol. You should have the v6 version. I would go to the tot file. Also you would have had froyo, but after a month it should have updated to ginger bread. So go get the v6, then I would check phone status and see if there is an update. majority of us got the gingerbread update, if you don't there isinfo on how to do it. If you do, there is the one click tool kit that will get your phone rocked out.

Jeez, I know, I just took him at his word, no need to fight over it. Lol. When cubed told me it was unbrickable he said he did everything possible too, and the secret to fixing it was dependent on how the phone acted, what lights were on, what the screen did, because each one had its own fix. I had a mismatch md5 and it said in the instructions don't turn off your phone. I did and caused it to brick. But there was a section in our forum to fix that brick. And with cubes help and mt laughing at me,we got it fixed.

Got it unrooted and back to stock! The phone still resets itself every minute or so. Not sure if that is because I manually forced it past the sim card setup screen. Anyway, at least I can now take it into verizon. Thanks all for the help.
Glad to hear you're making progress. You may still want to go the ADB route and put zv6 on. I understand getting the Over The Air push upgrade to zv7 will then get you the upgraded radio. I haven't heard any other method for getting the radio.

That kind of makes no sense flash the v7 tot it will get you to gingerbread get rid of your reboot issue. Also I wouldn't take the phone to Verizon unless you don't have cwm recovery in your phone cause more than likely they are going to try And factory reset your phone which will then boot into cwm recovery. Either way you're going the long way about fixing that phone.

Old posts like these (below) lead me to believe the radio is only OTA. Of course it's old info and things may have changed. I didn't follow the TOT thread/s as closely since my phone behaved and did the OTAs fine. Realized I forgot there was a radio update on zv6. That's partly why I was paying attention to mentions of radio upgrades and it was taking a while to get root for zv6.

Only other option will be to downgrade or ugrade using LGNPST. Or wait, one of the other Members is attempting to get the v7. Tot file then can just use LGNPST to upgrade.. or MTMichaelson will be posting Gingervolt some time today which will have everything except new radio.. that you need to flash through LGNPST or the OTA update.. the radio that is along with the firmware.

yep, that was all it took. I downloaded gingervolt and the reboot problem went away. Hopefully a new sim card will get it back up and running. Thanks again for everyones help.
I've been using gingervolt (now on 2.0) since about 30 minutes after I picked up my Revo back in November, and now I'm thinking about trying the ZV8 upgrade out to see how it does. My question is, If I flash the v7rooted rom, then unroot and reinstall the LG boot loader, will I lose my text messages? I know I can use sms backup and restore to re load them, but it doesn't seem to backup picture messages, which I would like to keep a few. Do I need to just save those pictures to my phone/computer and wipe it all?
Really not wanting this thing binged again, but I would like to see if it takes care of a few of the issues that I am having (mostly battery, the browser back button, and the very occasional reboot.)
I would also like to say thank you to all of you guys who have done so much for the Revo.

Yeah, I know... I do understand they have lives outside of this though, so I was just thinking about trying it out for a couple days and if it doesn't do any good then I can always roll back and re-root and flash gingervolt again. I guess I'm just being curious and impatient, and should probably leave well enough alone.
When I had to re-install Gingerbread when I was deleting my registered e-mail with the phone I put on the .tot of GB and yes, it'll erase your messages.

Coming from gv 2.0 to the zv8 update has been amazing for me. I got 16 hours on the standard battery today before it shut off, no random reboots, no touchscreen stops working at random, my reception is better, and the phone responds well and feels fast. I followed the method posted somewhere in the dev section to maintain root on the update (so I could keep free wifi tether ;-)) and was able to freeze the bloatware and do small tweaks.

i was using 3G with T-Mobile since the euro baseband was released for the Optimus 3D. all you have to do is load the baseband and os onto your phone then go to settings - wireless networks-mobile networks- network mode- 3G only and ucheck use only 2G networks. after a while it would pick up the 3G signal. 4G might work but since I have Simple Mobile 4G isnt activated on my plan. Hope you get it to work for you.
So I need to download the EU baseband and install that. After that do what? When I goto my settings there is no setting for me to turn on or off 3g! There is no settings at all! Can someone please post some pics of this because this is really rubbing me the wrong way. I've been at this for over a week!! Thanks again for everyone who has been helping.

Make sure the phone you have IS the Thrill 4G 3D, for AT&T
after you've made sure is the correct phone, then load the KDZ or BB as is also called and make sure is V21D, I have tried V20C and it doesn't work
So after you've loaded V21D.
let it boot, go into wireless settings, access point, press menu and enter your own T-Mobile APN. The one I use is listed on the other thread about using tmobile 3g on the thrill, look for it, and good luck.
I'll post some screenshots when my daughter comes back from school later today and show the thrill running H on t-mobile network
Ok, did it again and still the same problem. I have a 4g lg thrill. This is crazy, why am I having such a problem?!!
screen shots as promissed
ok I look at your screens and the only thing I see different is that you only have tmobile listed as your apn but I have att phone and att wap listed on my phone. I do have the blue do on my tmbile and I've saved the apn. I think that maybe the problem. Is there a way to get rid of them? Thanks man for all your help, I feel I might get this taken care of.
when you are in the apn screen go into the att ones as if you're gonna modify them
press menu and delete, that should take care of your problem
it wont give me an option to delete or change them. Im going to post some pics of my phone so you can see.

Your problem is you STILL HAVE V20P
get rid of it and flash V21D, and then you'll have option to put your own APN
I see now where it says software version but I've downloaded the v21 6 different times! I've even done a google search and I will end up here for the version. The links I've tried here all give me the same one. I even downloaded another one last night before I went to bed and installed it and I'm still stuck with this one. How big is v21 so I know I have it exactly. I will put up screen shots of my computer to show you how many times I've downloaded them and what they say. If you have a link to where I can get it and you know its the correct one, please post it or send it to me at my name at hotmail. Thanks.

Hey guys.
Just got this phone yesterday, haven't done much expect the obvious few apps (Facebook, ect...) Is there any way for me to improve battery life and the general way the device works? I know nothing about rooting and would only even attempt it of there were a 1-click method. I think it installed Jelly Bean a few minutes after I turned it on, but I'm not sure. I installed Cache Cleaner by Infolite, because it helped keep my last phone from rebooting, but I'm not sure I need it here. Do I?
I just got out of the hospital so my main concern here is just that it works good and is reliable, I would love to get the best battery life I could but like I said, I'm not really the mod type as I have no experience with it.
So, I would be grateful for any info you guys could give me. I'll post a screen shot to give you guys a better idea of what my device is running specifically.
-Thanks.
Yeah your running jelly bean. And currently its not a 1 click process. As far as battery life goes you could put the razr maxx battery in it and it'll last for a day.

You can't do much, disable the AT&T bloatware, turn off GPS abd Sync when you don't need it, keep brightness to the lowest you can

If you do the mod however, you'll get insane battery life

xXckkillerXx;; Thanks for the quick reply and the instructions, I really do appreciate it.
I'm just curious though, how/why will doing these things help my battery life and what other changes will it make to the device? And how great is the chance of me screwing it up and bricking the device?
Sorry to be such a noob.
-Thanks.

You wont brick as long as you follow the directions, its hard to explain why this rom is gonna help you out, its fast and deletes bloatware, and allows you to optimize your battery life so that theres less usage like when the screen is off, it saves a lot of battery life.
I would love to do it if it's gonna help, but I just don't have enough faith in myself to try it. Like I said, I just got out of the hospital (psychiatric) and my nerves are still a bit wonky. Maybe a 1-click method will be released soon and I can give that a shot at some point.
Sorry to hear that,
For now just disable every att app keep GPS off keep wifi off when not in use brightness low, close apps.

Very easy.
Its like having an old school dumb phone that lasts 2 days but you can be on it all day.

try to calibrate battery
1. Once your phone dies plug it into your HTC charger, (DO NOT TURN IT ON)
2. Let it charger fully (about 3 hours) until you see the light turn green, unplug the phone
3. Turn on the phone on but do not mess with it. (no checking email, messages, etc) let it sit for about 20 to 30 min
4. then plug it in again but let it continue to sleep (about 30 min)
5. once the light is green, unplug and your finished.
this is called a jump charge (DO NOT DO THIS ALL THE TIME)
the phone knows what your doing and it should re-calibrate any phone.
Thanks, and hey. I just noticed you're from Raleigh. I used to live on the south side near Garner. I'm in South Carolina now though, it sucks.
Not to be a bother, but I was thinking I'd switch my SIM card for a BYOD Net10 or Straight Talk one and go prepaid for the time. Any info/thoughts on how that might effect the phone?
Also, if my noob questions are getting tiresome feel free to tell me to shut-up. I'll understand.

Haha, Raleigh sucks. I'd just stick with at&t and then calibrate the battery.
