Root [02/Nov/2011] Android 2.3.7 Gingerbread (Swiftdroid) CM 7.1 For LG GT540 [New Method]

This is my first update from official android 2.1 and i'm hooked on my LG GT540 again! But...

1) Need for speed SHIFT and Raging Thunder 2 don't work on my gt540 anymore :(
with need for speed it only gets to the EA logo then returns me to the previous screen I was on. With raging thunder it says 'authorizing license' then goes to the 'downloading game data to your SD card. one time only download' message. The download bar comes on but when it completes, it returns me to my previous screen again and if I launch the app again the whole process repeats! Plz help!

2) Is there any way of getting official android 2.2 and 2.3 apps after mod has been successfully installed?

P.S. I'm a newbie and this is my first ever message so tell me if i've done sumthin wrong :)
Any answers much appreciated.

PLEASE HELP ME! I've tried everything!
 
Hey thanks for answear well what can i say Radiant HD works now with no lags so preformance is a lot better even without OC.Everything works camer,wifi etc.

Only thing that's worse i battery it drains a bit faster still enought for 10 hours of mp3 so im fine.

So again thanks for 2.3.5 :)
 
how come pc sync cant see the device anymore, theres no option to disable the usb storage? pls help i cant sync my contacts
 
Unsure - I have my contacts synced with my google account only. I stopped using the lg sync after removing my 2.1 rom. Sorry I can't help.
 
It won't reach 100%

Wrong :)

The calibration i did earlier at 99% was good enought.

Today after charging my phone though USB i did see 100% 4200mV for first time.

I did another calibration at 100% 4200mV i quess it should be perfect now.

Im using vizBattery gadget is there a more accurate gadget?

Edit: And my sd card work better now on 2.3.5 so i can only say root your phone and install 2.3.5 :)

Ok i need to ask this right now i got about 70-75mb free ram is there a way to increase it more i got memory compresion at 26% already.
 
Where can I find a list of supported languages​​? Turkish language supported?

V20B_00 ROM installed on my phone. Do I need to install V20A_00 ROM

Thanks.
 
OHH YESS SORRY FOR THE CAPS BUT YEAH I FINALLY HAVE MY BLUETOOTH WORKING THANKS EVERYONE FOR THIS NEW
and as for the creator of this finally update thanks too :D

Hello!

Hold down the button 1 during message writing, the symbols coming up in two row, but I can't select symbols from the secound row.

Working for you guys?

Thx
 
Android235GT540 comes up as a text file and not .exe for me. Anyone else have this issue? I tried opening and it does not work and just hangs.

I saw another file that cagsa put up that it probably the the espanol version of the software. I was about to use it but hesitated in case it could cause issues in the future, since i need the English language version.

Anyone else have a working copy that they can upload? Thanks a lot!!
 
Found switching from Opera browser to Internet Explorer did the trick. I'm not 100% sure that i'm in fastboot mode to install the software though.

I tried installing but all i get is "waiting for device". The installation won't occur!!

Help!! Thanks!!
 
Question in 2.1 when i turned my phone off and plugged it into charged it did charge in other way.

In 2.3.5 when i turn it off and plug in it turns on and charges.

I want to know if there are any disadventages if i do that...

The only disadvantage is because the phone is running while its charging it will charge slower, than if its off while its charging but if you charge overnight it shouldnt be a problem.
 
Anyone have a fix for the "Error while searching for networks" issue when doing a manual network search?

It's a bit of a problem for me because here in the UK, with the merger of T-Mobile and Orange, T-mobile are closing down their transmitters at some shared sites. I have a problem because the Orange transmitter doesn't seem to have quite the coverage that the T-mobile one did and living on top of a cliff on the SE Coast my phone keeps registering with the French SFR network when I'm at home and I can't change it.

I've had to go back to 2.1 again. :(
