    Discussion For - Root, Recovery, ROM without touching a computer

    it sounds like you lucked out and didn't brick your phone. what youre saying as to how you got to where youre now is impossible without doing a flash back to stock through custom recovery. either way, power down and see if you can get into custom recovery w/the three button deal...

    ARCHIVED: [DEAD ROM] nROM v1.6.3

    I use tango, but I'm on thunderROM. a little cumbersome because I have to face the camera when speaking. a working ffc mod would be :awesome: on the optimus but is not a necessity for video calls. Sent from my Optimus via Tapatalk

    Custom Roms Are AMAZING!!

I love both android devices and the buttery smooth efficiency they run with. idk much about...

    Launcher Pro and Battery Life?

    x3 on launcher pro since day one. it's made docks tolerable for me. furthermore i've never had it use more resources than necessary-like I don't have 3d app drawer. one thing I wish for in future rom updates is better/sexier launchers. :-) Sent from my Optimus via Tapatalk

    Problems after flashing phone with new rom...

    the culprit maybe the overclock widget of choice. it was the issue in my case. try something like setcpu and see how things develop. Sent from my Optimus via Tapatalk

    Discussion For - Root, Recovery, ROM without touching a computer

    sounds like you haven't granted term emu root access. if rooted, when you enter su in term emu superuser app should pop up with request for more permission. go ahead and allow/remember. Sent from my Optimus via Tapatalk

    imo the factory reset option should be disabled (greyed out, whatever) in thundeROM considering how detrimental things could get afterward. Sent from my Optimus via Tapatalk

    Is it possible to silence the shutter sound?

    I havent tried smart measure yet but silentcam = stoneage_quality_pix. :) for kicks I also tried 1 or 2 private-type apps that just kill all volume in general (silent mode). but I could just as well use the vol buttons on the side too, minus the footprint. maybe the rom chefs can cook up...

    New Android UI Animations

    hey gizmo, thanks for the heads-up. i've been eying metamorph and your post was the last push. just installed flip animations and i'm pleased. I didn't place the animation zip file in the root of the sdcard, it was in the downloads folder by default (i downloaded from my mobile browser). I found...

    Apps for rooted devices?

    personally, i detest ads. it's also one of the main reasons i rooted. i don't care much for app devs that whine and cry about AdFree (another app too, oh the irony!) and how much possible revenue they're missing out on.

    [MOD] Flashable buildprop edits (stock, stagefright, jit)

    WUNC is not working for me neither from the NPR News app (ThundeROM 1.4). I keep getting a window that pops up on my screen with a "Received error: 351, -4" when i try to stream live. Other random stations (RAL, DUR) work, i wonder why.
