    Root What is this app for?

    LGATCMDService.apk What does that app do? It is installed in /system/app and there is an odex file too. I'm asking because this app is on another LG phone called the LG Optimus Dynamic and someone else is asking what it's for. Thanks in advanced.

    Root Spirit has a ROM now

    This thread is for the advanced people. There is now a ROM for the spirit and I'm thinking we can use features from the spirit on our phones. I'm not sure if they will entirely work or not on our phones, it may need resizing/porting. I heard the stock launcher has extra features.
