u guys should really start searching for apps that can overclock stock seriously get busy... if you want a badass phone u have to help... start searching the andriod market and not to mention xda developers get busy people im getting the esteem soon so ima be on here soon watch out for me lol..
I was really hoping that by the time i get the phone i would be able to root(success), overclock(need help, work in progress)
, recovery(need help, work in progress), roms(TBA,need recovery,need help)
turn these unhappy faces to smiles lol lmfao

Personally i wouldnt recommend this on the lg, but if anyone wants to test, BIO means...but would be better to wait till the OC kernel is release, but very important, wait till recovery menu and rom is made before attemping anything you are unsure of...
i'm happy to try it out if you'll walk me through it. stuck in boot loop.... kinda. it will load to setup wizard, then die. but if i hit the exit button in the setup wizard, then it halts the reboot. and i can stay on my phone till the screen falls asleep. once the screen is asleep, it auto reboots... uggh. all from just changing the fonts in the system/font folder.... well, i say that, i renamed the original fonts while the system was running. when i exited root explorer, the screen froze, and started the boot loop.
Off topic, but possibly if you lengthen the time before the screen goes to sleep, it could give you a long enough window to ADB push the original fonts back to the system.. Just a shot in the dark..

Hey bro, since you compiled the kernel maybe you might find this useful.
This is for compiling clockworkmod from source for a motorola droid.
The script has motorola specific stuff in it, but i'm trying to learn how i might replace that part with lg stuff instead.
Compiling Clockwork Mod From Source
I've got my linux box syncing the repository right now.
If i had to guess, maybe take some lg source folders, put em somewhere inside the other folders -> ? -> compile -> profit! ?

If you can make a one click recovery flashing app like the revo tool you would be a bad ass man.

Question for you guys, maybe you might know.
Lets say I make a BAD recovery image during my testing. And i flash it to my phone, would it still boot up fine as long as i didn't try to go into the recovery itself?
If that's the case, then at least I can safely play around once i'm able to compile stuff. I know the LG source has the code for it's normal recovery, so the trick would be somehow merging that with clockwork source code. I'm guessing stuff wouldn't work perfectly at first, that's why I ask.
I will see if I can practice making a recovery image for the virtual device emulator. Then I could get the hang of it without risking the real phone. At least in theory.

so that is a good thing then correct? I am assuming that means that if you flash a bad recovery you will still be able to boot your phone? which means all you have to do is tweak the recovery and try again and see if it lets you in?
You may go into fastboot mode though right? Then you'd have to wipe the recovery partition with adb fastboot and put another on there. At least that's how it was on the OM

I encourage searching things out. I think it builds character (I own an Indulge, I know all about seeking out knowledge of things over your head to build character) but please don't randomly experiment guys till there is a custom recovery, or you'll be enjoying your nice new bricked phone while you wait out the Christmas season.
funny, missed this post. but yes, and in developer options checked wake lock on charge option. now I have to learn how to use adb.
there is a sticky here how to use it.. The command your going for is adb push .. You'll need the original font files also..

PlayfulGod, Is there a overclock kernal built yet and I know this is an old post but I didn't find any other realitive info concerning this development. If you have anything valueable to point me in the right direction. could the overclock kernal be done with eclipse and port from similiar kernal? I'm new to this so I hope this is not stupid question.
