Your welcome! Quarx has stopped the development for this ROM, but he has posted the source code for the project on GitHub in hope that someone will continue his brilliant work, hopefully someone will!

As for the clock, go to Settings>CyanogenMod Settings>User Interface>Status Bar>Clock Colour then change the colour to white!

Np, I've heard that if you try downgrading it 2.1 it could brick your phone, I haven't personally tried it myself so I'm not sure if it'd work

Yes you can! I already did twice.

All you need to perform from fastboot:

1. fastboot -w
2. fastboot reboot (as soon LG logo appear press and keep pressed volume down button and power button) - you'll get download mode, then connect to PC USB cable.

Make sure you have disabled the LG MODEM driver in device manager.

4: Flash original 2.1 ROM using KDZ_FW_UPD as normal (but you can do this from now on ONLY with fastboot enabled roms).

Cheers, and goodluck!

What format is your memory card in? (Fat32, etc.)

How do i check =/ and thanks for the reply.

 

[dudeman1996]

How do i check =/ and thanks for the reply.

To check, connect the phone to the computer and enable mass storage mode, then on your PC, go to My Computer and click on your memory card, then in Windows Vista and 7 you should see this at the bottom:

Where it says File System can you tell me what it says?

sorry dudeman but the sd card is still doing it grr lol.

 

[dudeman1996]

sorry dudeman but the sd card is still doing it grr lol.

Still? Even though its formatted as FAT32?

 

[SkellerZ]

Yup, but now its not even reconising it i try putting in a different sdcard and it wont even do that you think my phone is nakard?

Edit: Ok got it to reconise and when i press mount SD it just keeps saying that its safe to remove lol =/

Nah there's nothing wrong with the phone, it was working before. On the 4pda.ru forum it says to use adb to give the command

mount-t vfat-o utf8, umask = 000, rw / dev/block/mmcblk0p1 / sdcard

To do this, put the phone in debugging mode (Settings>Applications>Development>USB Debugging) and open cmd again, if you've still got the Android folder that you downloaded to flash CyanogenMod then type

cd C:\Android

then type

adb devices

If something like 'List of devices attached
80A352166045194753 device' comes up, then your phone has been recognized, now type into cmd:

adb mount-t vfat-o utf8, umask = 000, rw / dev/block/mmcblk0p1 / sdcard

and try to mount the SD Card (Settings>SD Card & Phone Storage>Mount SD Card).

Hopefully that works!

EDIT: Iv fount something out. It only happens after my phone locks and i go to unlock it when the screen comes on its comes up as removed =/

Hi all,

Ok If i had another pc running linux ubuntu. And had the android Sdk installed and working. Were would i start if i wanted to fix the bugs in the current cyanogenmod openswift 4.4 rom and compile the new rom so i could flash it on my GT540.

I know its not an easy to answer question but i thought it was worth asking.

I have absolutely no idea on compiling code etc. but I do know that Quarx posted the source code for the ROM on GitHub.. Here's the link: https://github.com/OpenSwift

Are you gonna try to continue his amazing work?

Well i would love to give it a go. Mainly i want to try and get wireless tehering to run nativley and also bluetooth stereo. Its not that i actually need these things i would just like to have a try. If anyone can offer some advice i would greatly appriciate it. And if I manage to get a ROM that works i will update you guys and upload it for everyone. But i'm mostly going to need help.
