Here is your official Xionia Port xD

Note: I do not have an Optimus V to test with. However the only difference in the entire kernel source is swapped home/menu keys and a different backlight driver. I'm 99% confident these will work as they do on the Optimus S but nothing is guaranteed. I take no responsibility for any damages. Nandroid backups are encouraged.

Kernel
  • [Only registered users can view links. ] (retain your initrd)
  • [Only registered users can view links. ] (your kernel, our ramdisk)
  • [Only registered users can view links. ] (thanks takehull)
  • [Only registered users can view links. ] (for use with Optimus S CM7, still unofficial, please don't report bugs on our issue tracker unless you know it is not Optimus V only)
Xionia CWMA
  • [Only registered users can view links. ] (New archive, with CWMA ramdisk not GNM 1.1.0 )
Source Code

Ok, so if we make a nandroid back first, can we return to the way we have it now?

Virgin Edition of CWMA just flashes an older version of the Thunderc recovery. V 1.1.0 vs 1.2.0 that was made by getitnowmarketing a while ago.

Sort of disappointed.. I was looking forward to CWMA. Might just flash the S version.

Yup. Was it supposed to be something different?

I wasn't clear. That was my expectation too and I had the same result as you.

And now after flashing this, I can't flash the kernel from recovery. :/

It gives me:

Just flash the other recovery and you'll be able to. That is what I did.
