I am paying $25 per month for the unlimited text and data plan that now worths $35 under Virgin Mobile's grandfather clause. :D The grandfather clause stipulates that I can keep the legacy rate as long as I don't change plan or change phone. I am happy to save $120 every year by not getting a...

Google forced me to update to the newest version of Google Play Services. :'( Updated apps started to not work without the newer version of Google Play Services.

I used Greenify, Wakelock Detector, and BetterBatteryStats (the full version is free on xda). I found that my phone could not enter deep sleep at all when wifi was on. The wakelock amounts with wifi and with mobile data were the same, both in the order of minutes. However, with wifi on, the...

Re: [ROM+Kernel][CM-11.0][4.4.4][OS2SD/internal]bigsuperROM-thunderc-4.4.4 Tested many things--a long list of updates for everyone. bigsupersquid, I have used the gps.conf without the NTP lines for a week. It is better than before in that the three clocks are no longer out of sync but they...

Update on Google Play Store and Google Play Services autoupdating nasties: I applied the trick on Google Play Store by adding the "com.android.vending-1.apk" folder a few days ago. It worked and took care of the problem (multiple-at-a-time pop-ups). Google Play Services updated itself to...

How do you know the reboots are caused by low ram? I do get random reboots occasionally. I use an 8GB SanDisk Extreme Pro microSD card with 768MB for system, 2GB for data, 864MB for swap, and about 3.8GB left for VFAT. I disabled zRAM. The "free" command in the terminal shows that swap is...

bigsupersquid, I'll try the gps.conf clock lag fix next weekend when I have time to backup. syguyice, I can confirm that reverting Google Play Store to "factory" version fixes the pop-up problem. I was unable to revert Google Play Services. The button is greyed out although Google Play Services...

I tried to have Llama cycle the mobile data connection periodically per syguyice's suggestion but it did not work reliably because Llama relies on the clock. Sometimes, the clock lags a lot when the screen is off so Llama doesn't think that the next schedule cycle time has been reached. When I...

Oh, there's one more problem I forgot to mention. It's more of a nuisance but maybe it's a symptom of a more serious problem. 6) The phone turns itself on when I plug the charger into a turned-off phone. I get the LG screen followed by the Cyanogenmod spin like a normal boot. I don't get the...

I flashed the os2sd version on my Virgin Mobile Optimus V this past weekend. Now, I can run many of the most basic apps that I couldn't run with the Virgin Mobile stock ROM. Thanks, bigsupersquid! I have a few problems with the new ROM, and I am hoping that someone here can help me debug...
