There is a rom zero for 2.2.1

Also if your phone came stock with 2.2.1 you can not downgrade to a 2.2 rom, seems there was a minor change in the phone anyone that tries downgrading is presented with a black screen on boot up.. ask me how I know :)


Damn that one is buried too well, way to many pages back

I downgraded when i first rooted awhile back using andyo70's method w/lgnpst, and it worked great. i used the same method again to go back up to 2.2.1 so i could have it and use gingerbreak.

truth is i might've originally had 2.2 when i very first had the phone though. i know i had done an update from LG at one point before i ever rooted or anything, and that was probably what got me 2.2.1.

thanks very much for the link. i like the sense rom i'm on now, but since there's a zero for 2.2.1, i'll d/l it and save it with my rom collection lol. i have a directory on my computer that has basically everything in it related to my android phone. dated nand backups, dated sd backups, roms, recoveries, spare APKs, custom ringtones, power on sounds, screen toggle sounds, notification sounds, wallpapers, boot animations, etc etc etc. you name it. So since I have hundreds of gigs on my computer, I just transfer or at least copy all that stuff to my computer so I can draw from it as needed. I keep sounds/music/pix/wallpapers/etc on my SD, but roms and backups i make/acquire and transfer via USB when done using. no need to keep them on board if I'm not using them at the time.

EDIT: I vote that all ROMs uploaded here into their own thread be given sticky status. This would go the same for important tutorials like joneidy's debricking thread, etc.
 
I too have a directory on my computer hard drive, named Android Stuff :D I have lots of things in there all the roms and apk's I have tried out you name it.

If you ever noticed there is only 5 stickies per sub-forum. It's a strictly enforced rule around here for some reason.
 
Well it does make sense in the idea that it keeps them from having to make an arbitrary decision about every sub forum, which avoids the problem of all the members saying, "But they have 20 stickies, how come we can't have another??". Inevitably we would end up with sub forums that all had the first page of threads full of stickies that didn't really need to be stickies.

I just think that ROMs, just like recoveries and kernels, are such an obviously integral part of the whole rooting crowd, and as such should be stickied so they're easy to find. For example, getitnowmarketing's All In One Recovery thread is not easily found in a search in my experience. Someone just linked to it in another thread I'm subscribed to, so they managed though. Up above, you see another example of a ROM I didn't even know existed because it got buried in the forum. And then the tutorials, I mean key tutorials for major things, like the n00b thread that's stickied--that's a good one. Add to that official debricking tutorials, a2sd tutorials, etc.

I guess IMHO, there's enough threads that are sticky worthy that it's almost worth having a sub forum within the all things root sub forum, just to hold those stickies, so they're easily found and easily linked to.

Why does the Lg Optimus M form only have 1 sticky? wouldn't some of the stickies that's on this form help out better on that form? like " don't use Clockwork Mod or Rom Manager, and the tutorial about rooting. It could save some people from messing up and then coming to this form to try to fix it. I'm not saying it's a problem with helping but i wouldn't want to mess up first if it could be avoided.

Actually that is a good point, you can hit the report button on say the clockwork one and ask if it can be moved, if nothing else you should get a answer as to why or why not.:D

thank you, i really appreciate that information. i'm going to check on it and see what they say. i just want to help people out before they do crazy things to their phones, i know its a bad feeling when you think your phone is an expensive paper weight.

Hold on, wait, stop before you go messaging the mods on this. The reason that root-related threads are not in the regular LG Optimus M forum is because they belong in the forum so aptly titled, "Optimus M - All Things Root". If we start mixing the two, particularly with stickies, there will be little point in having the sub-forum. The regular LG Optimus M forum exists to my understanding for those who may not necessarily care about rooting, and just wanna talk about their phone/find out about issues they're having with it even if it's unmodified.

If someone wants to find out about rooting, you cannot blame the moderators if they brick their phone without first visiting the big bold link at the top of the LG Optimus M forum that leads to the All Things Root sub-forum. It's damn near impossible to miss, and while I'm just as happy to help as the next guy, it's that user's responsibility to do his/her due diligence in reading the information that we have here, especially when there's bolded links leading to it, and ask questions as needed/gain an understanding BEFORE trying shit.

When i was on sense rom before the update my scores were mid 500s.. i tried CM7 last night.. loved the theming.. loved everything about it. except all my volumes are super low.. cant hear shit.. barely hear it ring with everything turned allt he way up.. but when i was on the CM& rom my quadrant was 997 without cache clear with wifi on and everything else.. but just switched to the updated sense rom because i can actually hear shit with it.. and my quadrant i just ran is 520.. lol..but its still very fast i never get any lag with it.. so i cant complain..

Hey you know, I've observed the same thing except I had often over 1000 on quadrant, at least 800 somethin on the previous sense rom, but now im in the 500s after the update, but if the phone runs fine, then that number doesnt mean anything as long as everything works. besides, it's still an upgrade with OC, etc.--i ran a quadrant when i was stock rooted, got 377 lol. so this is still definitely a massive improvement all around. besides my phone looks better now. the LG dock bar is, well....ugly lol.
 
When I opened quadrant and I opened phone info I noticed under cpu it showed where I was clocked, but then I noticed it also shows a max frequency at 864,my question is is this showing the highest point I have set it to at any time or is this showing the actual max frequency my cpu can handle?

Neither. That's just the available max end of the range that you could technically try to set it to. Since you have installed an overclocking kernel, it's provided you with those higher ranges--it doesn't mean you can successfully use all of them though. If you still had the stock kernel, you would only see a max of 600 mhz.

I'll try to make this clear: Don't set it that high (864) unless you want to force a freeze/reboot.

The sense rom is the only one I have used since rooting my phone and i just recently updated to the new version, and my quadrant score is still never above and rarely exactly 600, it would be nice to get the number up there but with how my phone runs now compared to stock I am happy with my low quadrant score lol.
 
id love to use the CM7 rom i love cyanogen.. used it on my previous phone.. my girl has it on her hero my son on his phone.. and if they could get the volume sorted out for the optimus i would use it.. but a phone is useless if ya cant here when people are calling you.. i manage a kitchen.. lots of noise.. lol. looking forward tot he unofficial port joneidy and blarf are working on.. maybe solve some of those issues..
 
yeah same, man. actually 122 is for screen off or battery near dead. otherwise i'm 748/245. go fig.
