    Optimus S to Evo 4G

    Hi all, My wife and I switched to Sprint in Jan 2011 and since then, we've been using Optimus S. It's a great budget phone and, at that time, I was able to get both for free. Fast forward to now, we're knee deep in the contract and no hope for upgrade. I can get a manufacturer refurbished...

    Re: Drew's CM7 builds (stable: 08/09/2011 | experimental: 08/08/2 First things first, the mod works great and I can't believe my dinky phone can handle all the animation/graphics. I just have a weird issue . I have a pair of wired headphones/mic that won't work with this new mod. Worked...

    How to: Update your rooted V9/VC baseband Optimus S to VD w/out losing all your data.

    I continue to be impressed by the level of talent on these forums. I dropped off the radar after upgrading to a Thunderom in Feb'11. The upgrade process to VD is gump proof!!! Slight hiccup with LG Updater but otherwise the new Rom + baseband run screaming fast!!!

    Someone correct me if I'm wrong but Thunderom v.1.4 or higher, the buildprops are pushed on the SDCard. 1) By default, they won't be flashed and 2) to flash it, you boot into recovery and flash update the relevant file (stock/deluxe/Jit/etc...) The deluxe contains both Jit and StageFright. At...

    I'll see how many times it reboots tomorrow and then I'll d/l the stock file. I think I have 30 days to return my phone. Hopefully, I won't need to... The features/price ratio of this phone is ginormous.

    Thanks, guy. Prepare for an onslaught of silly questions though. 1) I downloaded the BuildPropDeluxe which increased my Linpack from 7 thingamagigs to 9 and increased my quadarant from 500~ to 1168. Would this have any impact on the stability? 2) If it's a hardware issue, will it also come...

    In my defense, I got the phone at noon and had it rooted/flashed by the end of the night. It keeps happening when I press random keys. I installed Pandora and pressed the back button twice and the phone rebooted itself. One time, it rebooted while I was in the middle of the call. I figure if...

    The ROMs work great and the instructions are super easy even for a newbie like me. I don't know if anyone else has this problem but my phone sometimes just resets itself for no apparent reason. I've had this happen on V1.6 as well as V1.6.2. It resets when I press "Home" twice or if I press...
