    Probs: very minimal probs but can be found in his thread
    Details: this is a quick zippy ics rom for the lg optimus s. It has the kravens cm9 kernel included.
    Apps2ext built in due to little space our phone has. Most peoples rom of choice due to the quickness and customization it has to offer. A highly recommended rom

    Daily use:its acceptable

    Drews cm10
    Stable:nope
    Daily use:nope
    Probs:mms,camera,Google now,Google ears,no apps2ext so its too large and has no space,Launcher not made for this phone

    Yes but a lot of us still have this phone, something like this is really useful, add links to the ROMs and this would be amazing!

    One little correction: you don't NEED an ext partition to run my magpie rom. You only need it if you want to move apps to it. It runs fine without it.

    Believe it or not, it's $20 if you go into a Sprint store and get one. It's free if you buy it from Sprint online, from BestBuy and from Radioshack. Go figure. The only thing I can figure is that Sprint wants to shut down their store fronts. Every time I walk into one of my local stores, there are fewer and fewer employees and less and less furniture...
