Recovery for breakout is done. There are a few things a couldn't add at this time as the kernel source isn't out. Pantech seems to have used a rather strange proprietary method of switching the usb product id which is what signifies the usb mode ie. M(edia) T(ransfer) P(rotcal), mass storage...

I have some good & bad news for commando development.
I have made and tested a perfectly working recovery for commando. It was a pita too as I had to alter the framebuffer driver to even get the recovery UI to display properly. The bad news is due to hopefully an unintentional engineering flaw...
Note: Requires install via my custom recovery.
Kernel Changes:
Overclocking up to 864mhz see notes below
Interactive and Smartass governers
Tun & cifs modules.
Support for Ext4 filesystem
BFQ as default I/O scheduler
Overclocking Notes:
Not all phones can OC and can handle the same speeds...
Need some info on 2.2.1. Has radio/baseband version changed from 2.2 to 2.2.1? Also can I get a stock kernel config pull from both 2.2 and 2.2.1?
adb pull /proc/config.gz
Please upload and label. Im back from android afk and Lg did not release new kernel source for 2.2.1. I want to...

I have learned how to create and flash splash images on the Ally. The splash is the Lg logo on black screen on 1st boot. I'll try to make some for possible inclusion into velocity.
To submit an image I'll need it to meet this critera:
1. Must be 480x800 size
2. Must be static image no gifs...
We are not able to flash radio on ally currently with ra or with clock work ( I built the newest 3.0+ clockwork recovery to try). Fastboot doesnt do it either (errors). If it comes back success its a placebo from recovery and doesnt actually flash it. Anyone that had a phone SHIPPED with...
Some of you guys are posting without thinking. Please do not post ANY root exploits for 2.2.1 as you will risk us losing the ability to root and hinder future development if the wrong eyes read it. All posts related to this are being edited/removed. Try me on this and I'll personally attempt to...
Here is a rooted 2.2.1 for vortex. I hardly changed anything.
Changes from stock:
Pre-rooted and boot is unsecured.
Added flash_image and updated busybox.
Rom makers feel free to use this as a base. Please no questions on how I dumped this take it as a gift. If some of you guys can email Lg...
I'm hard at work on a aosp build for Opt M and need some help for the apns. I've never had metro and they don't even have service in my area so I need you guys to provide me the data.
I need to make a apn-conf.xml and of course its not utilized in the oem setup. After reverse engineering the...
Prereqs:
1. Rooted Phone
2. Kernel with cifs.ko (my cifs.ko may possibly be used with stock kernel but is untested)
3. Cifsmanager & RockPlayer (free from market)
4. Phone and pc both on same wifi network.
1. After you have flashed a kernel with cifs.ko download cifsmanager & Rockplayer from...
I'm just about done with the Optimus 1/T recovery. If you guys want one for Opt S I'll need some dumps.
Once rooted from adb shell or terminal app type:
su
cat proc/mtd
note the mtd partition # of boot & recovery.
then in the dd parts use the mtd number of your boot and recovery...
adb push rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin /data/local/tmp/
adb shell
chmod 0755 /data/local/tmp/rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin
cd /data/local/tmp
./rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin
now you may have to wait several minutes here. Once you get back to command prompt and rage is done go to next step. IF...

I need a tester in IRC for ally recovery with new features. I no longer have the loaner ally to test on. Its 9:45 est now and I'll be on for the next hour or so. Join #lgally on freenode to help.
My old friend Dsi from windows mobile days has created an awesome android kitchen. Version .85 now includes support for the first Non-HTC device which is the Ally. I used this kitchen to build the test rom to test the custom recovery with. I submitted the patches needed to build for the Ally and...
