Per AndyOpie, I flashed the MiRaGe ROM (with Gingerbread 2.3.7) and I love it. I'm brand new to this process, though, and have four concerns/questions (in order of importance):
1. I set up the pattern lock screen function (as I've always used), but the basic slide-to-unlock function is still there before the pattern, essentially forcing me to unlock my phone twice every time I wake it up. Can this be fixed?
2. Is there, by any chance, a way to modify the layout of the Android keyboard? Specifically, I use commas WAY more than I use emoticons, and would rather have a comma button there instead of the "
" button. Any suggestions?
3. The Optimus V, as everyone knows, has battery life issues. Pre-root, I found Juice Defender to be a life saver. Should I continue using it, or are the battery wasting features mostly disabled in these modified ROMs? Or does anyone recommend an app better than Juice Defender?
4. The scanner for Amazon's Price Check app has never worked on my phone. I hoped the ROM update would fix that, but it didn't. Any ideas?
Much thanks for your time.
