    Root This Noob Custom ROM'd his Optimus V!

    I held my breath, and followed the instructions here: Install from Stock Optimus - ROMRepo and got a nicely customized Optimus V for my efforts! :D I've only been using the phone for a day, so I haven't figured out all the cool stuff it can do...but it looks nice and seems a little peppier...

    Help Google Number not Working with My Optimus V

    Calls to my Google Voice number are ringing once, then disconnecting. Anyone else experiencing this? Last night I got Sipdroid/pbxes.org outgoing calls working on this phone--not sure if this issue is related? Could Virgin Mobile have changed something regarding compatibility with Google...

    Help Apps "disappear" Occasionally

    Occasionally, on rebooting my phone, I notice that half-a-dozen or so apps have gotten "corrupted". Their icons on my desktop become 'generic" (a green droid) and the app won't start. I can see 'remnants' of the apps when I go into Settings/Applications/Manage Applications--where they have...

    Best Place to Sell my Optimus M?

    I know there's a classified section on this site--is there a consensus regarding the best place to sell an Android? My Optimus M is only about 10 weeks old and restored to out-of-the-box condition... Craigslist? eBay? The classified section here? Somewhere else? All of the above?? :confused:

    LG Optimus V (VM670)

    I just got one of these very-well-reviewed phones. (I had gotten an Optimus M about 3 months ago!) Very impressed with the hardware (it feels lighter and thinner than my M)--and it seems to have come with about a third-to-half less bloatware on it! Only had it a couple of hours--so I...

    Help Friends Battery Life Suddenly Crap

    I got an Optimus M right after Christmas, and a friend got one about 2 weeks later (based on my recommendation). No problems until about a week ago when her battery is suddenly done by noon. She went to the Metro PCS tech center (whatever it's called), waited for 90 minutes, and was told...

    Root Can No Longer Root?!

    I got my Optimus M on Dec 27th--so only about 10 days ago as of this writing. That first week was rather intense--I learned a LOT about the phone! I also got it rooted, like, on day TWO. :) I haven't attempted to root for several days, and when I tried this morning following this...

    Root Cannot mount /system as rw!

    This is driving me nuts! Despite hours of googling, I cannot mount (or remount) my /system folder as rw--so that I can access it via adb, for example. The phone is rooted, the usb debug mode is on... I can copy/paste from WITHIN the phone...but I get a "Read-only file system" error when I...

    Root Mount root system to PC?

    I'm brand-new to Android, but have spent some time around Linux. I've been searching online for awhile now, and I can't find a way to mount the 'droid file system (not the SD card file system) to my linux desktop computer. My goal is to be able to do some minimal amount of file...
