My first root job (and my first post!)- had my V since they launched back in (feb?) and have been pretty much ok up until now. Now I want faster. And more internal space. SO:
After rooting my V (using this guide here /optimus-v-rooting-roms-hacks/57485-how-root-lg-optimus-v.html) I used Rom Manager to download and install I.H.O. Backside (the one released on 11/22/11)
NOW I have no market (I'm assuming this is normal?) Yes, I did my googling and I know I need gapps (google apps?) and I saw that in the RomManager download jawn, but now I have no RomManager. From everything I've been reading, CM7 comes with RomManager... Did I download a barebones rom?
the only way I've been able to do anything (texting and 3G web both work, didn't test anything else) is to restore the backup I made before flashing (had to do it a few times before I realized that I had to not only wipe the dCache but also the other check box for data and somesuch)
Not new to linux, just rooting phones.
So what did I miss, and what do I do now?
Thanks!!!
