A GB ROM based off LG's code for the Virgin Mobile Optimus Slider, presented by KSmithInNY and Team Hydro
- To use a custom ROM you must have rooted your phone and installed a custom recovery. A ROM thread is not the place to discuss rooting or applying a recovery. Please take any questions pertaining to root/recovery to the appropriate thread. Thanks in advance for keeping the community clean.
- This is a development thread, please ensure anything you post is development related.
- Please before posting any questions, out of respect for the work that's occurred, my time, and my sanity, read the entirety of this post and post #2, and as much of the thread as possible. Thanks for your cooperation.
- Myself and Team Hydro are not responsible for your phone, your sd card, thermonuclear war, or anything else.
[NOTE]I do not personally own this device. I have limited access to this phone. I made this ROM for my girlfriend and to allow it to be a springboard for upcomming Team Hydro work for this device.[/NOTE]

[INFO]
- DOWNLOAD the ROM and place it on the root of your SD card
- I highly suggest you also download Ginger kernel for use with this ROM.
- ALWAYS MAKE A BACKUP BEFORE YOU EVER FLASH ANYTHING
- Please wipe cache and dalvik cache (in advanced menu) prior to flashing. There is no need to wipe data/factory
- Wiping cache and dalvik cache does not impact user data, apps, texts or anything else
- If you downloaded Ginger kernel, flash that after the ROM.
