Re: Custom Kernel Enabling To Run CM7 & more(UPDATE:OVERCLOCKING
This has been answered in a number of places but here is the short and sweet, you will need to read the other thread to see how to go about doing each step.
1 Root the Phone (see my thread
http://forums.androidcentral.com/t-lg-thrive/95690-easiest-way-root-lg-phoenix-thrive.html)
2 install ROM Manager from the market
3 install Clock work recovery from ROM Manager ( don't do anything else with this program or you will soft brick your phone and its a major pain to get it fixed but it is fixable)
4 download Joban's Kernel and your favorite ROM from this thread
http://forums.androidcentral.com/t-...-2-08-overclock-cm7-2-3-7-etc-gyro-fixed.html (so far MMatt's Cyogenmod ROM seems to be the most stable but try what ever you like)
5 reboot into Clock work recovery (CWM) hold home volume button(for some its up for some its down) and power all at the same time.
6 install the ROM (.zip file) from the SDcard
7 Install Jobans kernel
8 clear the cache
9 Reboot the phone
10 skip the setup and add your google account manually (most of the roms seem to think we have a keyboard slider)
