Why do you recommend ginger kernel? Also, I just flashed this rom, and it looks exactly the same as the stock except the battery shows percentage.. I'm looking for a full custom rom that when I boot the phone it shows something different rather than virgin mobile logo.. Something like a video I saw on How to install custom roms on Optimus M and Nand backup - YouTube as you see on 09:22.. There's that epic boot animation that I'm craving for.. I hate that virgin mobile logo.. On the serious note, I don't even know what the hell I'm talking about.. I just got this phone, and I'm new to rooting and custom roms.. LOL.

That's a video for a different phone this phone doesn't have much development I just made this Rom with with tweaks and mods..... I don't own this phone so I'll leave it upto those who own the Slider to make Themes and Roms based off my Rom..... besides the Triumph is a way better phone ;) Its easier since I have the phone


..... for now anyway until making a theme peaks my interest :)

Bro.. I am not a modder, and it's certainly not my hobbie.. But if you can make my slider reboot to this animation android fries apple bootanimation with sound!! - YouTube.. I'll give you loads of props. I already tried it by downloading the file and overwriting the stock anime, but all it did was reboot 7 seconds and then onto the homescreen.. This boot anime last aprox.. 1 min 7 second.. Is there a way to tweak the system to make reboot last that long?
 
I appreciate you posting your custom rom on here. I have recently modded my optimus v very successfully but my fiance's slider is giving me some problems. I tried to install your rom after following your instructions and wiping the caches first but i am still getting stuck in the boot loop. If you can give me any details on how to make your custom rom work for me i would greatly appreciate it. I am new to all this customizing and am not fully up to speed on these things. Thanks in advance.

Did make a backup first if you did restore that

Then go into the recovery and wipe cache and dalvik cache only I know Optimus V has you wipe everything but this is harmful on the Slider

After that Flash Mobster Rom do not flash Gingerkernel reboot to system and if the phone works your fine no need to flash the kernel
 
screenshots of the roms would be nice lol, just migrated from my galaxy prevail to the lg optimus slider, so far i like ti tons better except for the lack of roms, i've only seen two lol

Did you set the client to desktop instead of android?
 
Did you both try to download using the same router and modem? If so go to McDonalds or somewhere there is free WiFi and try to download it again.

Weird I didn't change anything from 1.3 to 1.4 that would cause any of that.......

Ps. And you can't wipe data on the Optimus Slider it won't boot or anything after that one fix is to restore a nandroid backup
 
Will this not accept custom boot animations I can't seem to get them to run even with the one that was supplied with the rom?
