First, sorry in advance for the noob questions..
I am a first time Android phone owner. I ended up with the Revo because SWMBO said I could upgrade but only if it was free. Since it was the only 4G phone I could get for free (through newegg) other than the Stratosphere that's what I got. Otherwise it was the Galaxy Nexus for me.
Overall I am quite pleased with the Revo after dumping the stock ROM and installing Gingervolt 1.3. The only thing I don't like much is battery life but I understand that is fairly common among android devices. I suspect the ebay app is not helping but we'll see how it goes.
My last phone was a Blackberry Bold. I gotta say that the Blackberry has it all over android when it comes to email push. I don't much like gmail but yahoo's android app does a pretty good job, so I'm satisfied with it even if it does have to pull the email versus getting pushed. Also, copy/paste is far superior on the blackberry due to the trackball. I really don't like the way GB copy/pastes. It's a PITA.
However, after reading all 86 pages of the GV1.3 developer's thread, I see several references to supercharging.
I am assuming supercharing refers to the ability to overclock and/or underclock the processor. Is this possible with the stock GV1.3 ROM or is there an add on I have to install? I see there are apps in the market to do this. Is this the same or is this something different? I would like to overclock it a bit to see if that resolves the sluggishness the phone sometimes experiences and also see how bad it affects battery life.
In addition I tried to reinstall the stock LG weather widget by using ES File Explorer to put the .apk file back into the system/apps directory but it doesn't work. It won't show up in the list of widgets, etc. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
Michael

I'll get as much as I can with this as I'm on my phone
1. Thank you so much for being dedicated and reading up on what you did to your phone.
2. Supercharging is a script. I believe it is built into the rom already.
3. To over clock the cpu download the blitz kernel and flash. Then download either cpu master or setcpu from the market.
4. Idk how to do widgets like that:-(

Thanks for the response..
1: Yes, I do try to read first before asking dumb questions. Even then I still end up asking them. Thanks for your patience.
2: How do I access it? I've looked all over the place in all the settings on the phone with GV1.3 installed and I haven't seen anything like that.
3: Where do I get the blitz kernel?
4: Fair enough. The instructions I read simply said to put the file "weatherwidget.apk" in the system/apps directory and don't try to install it. But from there I don't know what else to do.

Thanks for that. As you well know some forums are not nearly so friendly.
Okay so let me see if I've got this straight:
GV 1.3 already has V6 supercharger included, but how do you access it's settings? Or are there settings to access at all?
To upgrade V6 supercharger to the latest beta I need to follow the directions in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1379564 right?
To overclock I need to install the blitzkrieg kernal available here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1371022 and then install CPU tuner to manage it?
How do you calibrate the battery? I read this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11803458&postcount=10 Is that how you're supposed to do it? It looks like that was written for a Motorola device
I also found this thread regarding tweaks and scripts? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1227269 I'm not really sure how to use any of these or whether I should use any of these.
Another note: I'm typically not a habitual tinkerer when it comes to my phones. I get them setup the way I like them and then leave them alone.
And while I am at it, since it's highly unlikely that LG or Verizon will upgrade the revo to ICS, do you think it will get done by someone here?
Thanks,
Michael

Yeah Gingervolt 1.3 has the supercharger already included, but there's no real way of actually accesing it. You might want to try downloading script manager from the market and see if you can find it that way. But if you want the latest version of the Supercharger, then ya go to the V6 supercharger thread in general and download the latest version. You'll need to uninstall the Supercharger built into the rom first then install the new one using Script Manager. The V6 Supercharger Thread should have all the instructions.
For overclocking, yes that's what you need to do. Blitz will overclock it to 1.5GHz but you can use the CPU apps to change it to whatever you like (1.5 or less).
To calibrate the battery, all i did was download the battery calibrator app from the market. You charge your phone to 100% then hit calibrate.
For tweaks specific to this phone, I would suggest looking at this thread instead: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1420199
We're all hoping MT, the one dev we have, can work some magic and get us ICS but we just have to wait and see i guess lol.
Hope this helped.

Yes it has, thank you.
And mega thanks to MT for all of his hard work. I would have sent this phone back if it weren't for him.
So this is the order I plan to do this. Please chime in and let me know if I am wrong. Hopefully soon cause I am starting now.
1: CWM backup
2: Install blitz
3: Install CPU tuner
4: Install script manager
5: uninstall built in supercharger
6: install updated V6 supercharger
7: Perform whatever build.prop tweaks I think I need to do
8: Calibrate battery
9: Marvel at the new found goodness that is my LG Revolution.

Most folks here don't use that anymore and for good reason, the script does more harm than good. Most of the custom ROMs/kernels are pre-tweaked these days for the most part and a script like V6 tends to just clash with them. That being said, if you are still are determined to use it all you need is Script manager from Play. Download the V6 script and then run it using that app. At least make a nandroid so you can undo things if the results are undesirable for you.
Yea I just won't. But this phone is an OK phone but I want to try and squeeze as much ram and not to make it run behind like it does really well on slim bean 4.1.2 but I just want to get everything out of this phone as I can.

Try Auto Killer to manage the RAM, it's about as good or better than anything. Just always keep in mind that with only 512mb of RAM and less than 360mb usable RAM you will never get a lag free experience unless you use a Gingerbread ROM.

Really? While you do make some good points, I'd have to disagree with you about a couple of things. First off, using auto killers isn't a good idea with Android, period. They do more harm down the road, causing instabilities in the ROM and apps. There are several write-ups about this around the web - just search and you'll find them. Secondly, even the stock TouchWiz GB is slow and laggy, as is Peach Sunrise and all the other GB ROMs. Sorry, but it's true. Some ROMs might seem okay, but when it comes right down to it, Jelly Bean has been a major improvement in overall speed. I'm sure if you put 2 Exhibit's side-by-side with stock Gingerbread and a vanila JB AOSP (such as SuperNexus), compared the speed and responsiveness, the JB device would win hands-down.
There are ways to help with the performance of this phone, however. There's a whole thread dedicated to it right here. Something not mentioned there because that thread is a little dated, is the beautiful app known as Greenify. Essentially, what Greenify does is freeze/unfreeze apps on-the-fly. It's a similar method to how you do it with Titanium Backup or other apps that can freeze apps, but Greenify does it in such a way that the apps don't disappear from the launcher, and will unfreeze them as soon as they're opened. When they're frozen, they won't take up precious RAM, CPU cycles, and won't drain the battery. Due to it's nature of freezing apps, it's not recommended to use Greenify on the launcher, live wallpapers, icon packs, or anything you use widgets with. All other apps (especially Facebook) are fair game. Good luck!

Actually I have the answer courtesy of Hatememarkez. NOS script: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2158329
As I just posted over in the Pacman thread amazingly I was able to get Gnow, Maps, Poweramp and Boat Browser running at the same time and my phone did not freeze up. No lag even. I'm in shock right now with the hell I've been through with this phone.
I know about Greenify but frankly I don't think it does much as I didn't get battery improvement or performance improvement out of it. Reason being your biggest resource eater in JB are Google apps. Greenify won't keep them hibernated. Seeder helps a little bit, but just a little.
On those GB ROMs, forget Peach. I'm talking about RebelROM and CM7. They are the fastest ROMs we have for this phone, just my opinion as I've used about everything that is offered for this phone. Although right now Baked Bean in conjunction with NOS is kicking major a** so I may have to amend my comments. Thing is I've been burned every time I say something like that so who knows. If a week from now things are the same, then it's V-day!

Read the two threads to compare but far as I'm concerned the difference is that NOS actually works for the ROM and not against it. It's also MUCH easier to install than that cumbersome script V6 uses.

I am using go battery saver??Any one recommend any other??
Actually, There's no such thing called battery Saver I believe. The battery back up depends on your usage pattern. However you can try this app from Google Play.
It requires root though, many are saying this reduces the background battery consumption of apps by hibernation.
Greenify
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.oasisfeng.greenify&hl=en
+1 for Greenify.
Just a note though, do not go crazy and hibernate absolutely everything like some people in the app thread seem to. Use something like Better Battery Stats or Wakelock Detector to identify badly behaved apps that hold wakelocks and hibernate them.
Everything else can and will be handled by Android's memory management

Exactly! Knowing about the bad behaved apps is the most important fact. Better Battery Stats can certainly do that. Once you know, you can control the battery issue easily. :good:

Stick as close as possible to stock if you want decent battery life. I've used two custom ROMS on my Z so far but the battery drain was unbearable so I've come back to stock, with about 5 build.prop edits and that's it.

I tried the UltraPowerSaving mode in GalaxyS5 rom port, and didn't really like it. It takes too long (more than 30 seconds) to get into that mode. BTW, GalaxyS5 rom is the only rom that is free from screen-on delay even with Wanam and other xposed mods enabled. I really like it, but it doesn't support deep sleep.
Also, are you a kid? Stop using caps lock. If you can't resist, just pull out the caps lock key from your keyboard.
You can also achieve most of the power saving mods in the ultra mode using Tasker app. There are some great tutorials online if you've never used it.
Recently rooted my note 5. Wondering what is currently the best kernel and what things that need root I can use for better battery?

Hmmmm....SkyHigh, xposed, amplify, better battery stats, greenify, wakelock detector. Since you ask, search these things & read read read. Soak it in. Then read it all again & again.

Yes to all of this. Except maybe Greenify. I find that the new app optimization feature kind of makes that app moot. Although I guess it can still hibernate system apps, which is nice. Oh, and Arter97's kernel is a solid substitute for SkyHigh. I don't really mess with over/under-clocking, but I imaging under-clocking would definitely help with savings, in which case SkyHigh would be the better pick.
