Root [ROM] GingerSteem Extreme II for the LG Esteem MS910

Just downloaded and about to try out this Rom. Anyone have any recomendations on Clocking speeds that are safe to run at? Thanks

ZVC... That confused me for quite some time until some of fellow Esteemites made some eye opening comments. For clarification, to move from ZVB to ZVC I need to run the AIO again? If that isn't the trick, what do I need to read to get an understanding of upgrading?

I bought my phone. it had zvc on it. i downgraded to zvb rooted installed gse1.5

since then they released the root for zvc and i made a back up of gse1.5 then upgraded back to zvc installed the this rom. not saying its a bad rom just not happy with looks of it. so i restored my backup from clock work. over the zvc update. and to be honest with you have not noticed any issues so far.

im waiting for the kernel from gseII to be released. so i can flash just the kernel over and have the great battery life and kernel of this rom. with all the good looks of the first version of this rom...

granted that was a long way to say. yea im running the old zvb version of the rom on zvc but im was trying to kill some time anyway
 
can we install a custom boot animation? don't get me wrong i like the boot animation, but i was in a important meeting the other day and my phone turned on and it was basically like someone farted really loud in there....it was very awkward. thanks for anyone that can tell me if we can do this.

Yes it will have wifi. I went back to 0.2. And yes you can flash right over v0.4.
Just make sure you wipe the cache and dalvik cache at least...if not a full wipe.

Will do Thanks again. Any recomendations on processor settings to run comfortably?
 
Ummm...just play around with it and see what your particular phone is capable of (not every phone is capable of the same speed ) if your phone randomly reboots or freezes up then reboots you are too high. And DO NOT CHECK THE BOX "apply on boot" until you are certain that you are stable because that will cause a boot loop and you could be forced to reflash which Is always annoying lol. My CPU is capable of 1900mhz but I keep mine around1500mhz so its all up to you and what your phone is capable of.

when not doing anything stressful i underclock it to about 460 or maybe slightly higher depending on my mood (thinking battery life...) when showing off i crank it all the way up, ha ha... for moderate app usage i keep it stock mainly...

oh yeah, min is 245
 
that's a good policy too lol...I just got mine so I'm still tickled by the speed too much to underclock it just yet lol. But I did that most of the time with my optimus.

BAHAHAHAHAAAAAA OMG man that one made me laugh :D

the boot animation is located in system/media, so if you have a prefered replacement you can push it via adb.

as for the sound, it is located in system/sounds/power and you MUST rename your replacement file to MetroPCS_PowerOn.mp3, then same thing just push it via adb.

an alternative would be to take the shell of a flashable theme (the META-INF folder) check the updater-script to make sure it is only mounting and installing /system folder

-once your script is in order place the META-INF folder into a new empty folder

-now while inside the new folder, create a folder in it and name it 'system'

-now open the system folder you created and make the designated folders for the required files ie: make a media folder and place bootanimation.zip folder inside it

when all finished you should have a folder layout like this

/New Folder-
-META-INF
-system/
--------media/bootanimation.zip
--------sounds/power/MetroPCS_PowerOn.mp3

(these directories are whithin the system folder)

now highlight the META-INF folder & system folder, right click to open menu and select send to-.zip, once finished you now have a flashable bootanimation

if you need help feel free to ask..
