Re: Custom Kernel Enabling To Run CM7 & more(UPDATE:OVERCLOCKING

Joban... I'm willing to play lab rat for you provided I have a way to get back to where I am with my phone currently. If everything goes to crap with your kernel am I able to just reflash my phone with the stock OS provided I backed it up before I start? Im completely new to ROMs and this is my first android and I don't like the idea of having a phone that doesn't work.

I am happy to test also, but I am only seeing Optimus One or Optimus V options in ClockworkMod on my LG Thrive. How are you getting p500?

The Optimus One is the P500 check here if you want verification. LG Optimus One - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Well I installed clockworkmod's ROM Managers from the market, opened it and click on back up current ROM. It seemed to do everything ok but then it looked like it was rebooting and came up with a blue logo and text that said something about bad ROM. I told it to reboot the phone and it came up with no issues. So at the very least I haven't broken anything yet. Am I on the right track here or did I mess something up along the way.


Update:

I ran the backup again and got [E: bad Boot Message "Recover"] But it appeared that everything else seemed to work just fine I checked my SD card and sure enough there is a ROM Back up under the clockworkMOD directory, So I guess it looks like Im really to go with the new ROM as soon as I can get some instructions on how to apply the kernel or whatever needs to happen next.

Re: Custom Kernel Enabling To Run CM7 & more(UPDATE:OVERCLOCKING

Guys,

I just ran into same issues. Selected Optimus One from Rom Manager, went to back up.Nothing happened (ie no backup), but it rebooted. Then I tried to Reboot into CWM and now I am stuck at

fastboot mode started
udc_start()

How did you get out of this? I have the p506.

Please help.

wow just what i was afraid of! i dont do anything in CWM besides flash recovery and then restart your phone in the recovery and do the backup if you want! the only way to fix that is now flash the p500 kdz! ill also make a thread right now how to fix that for all those who had this problem.

Re: Custom Kernel Enabling To Run CM7 & more(UPDATE:OVERCLOCKING

i'd love to test this for you, but ive tried every option out there to root my phone, an it wont allow me. once i do this i will put a custom ROM on. any ideas...? i know there are other threads out there but i have already looked through them

Re: Custom Kernel Enabling To Run CM7 & more(UPDATE:OVERCLOCKING

heres gingerbread
Gingerbreak v1.20.rar - 4shared.com - online file sharing and storage - download

well the way we have to do it with my custom kernel is that you flash any p500 you like, and then on top of that you flash my custom kernel.

Re: Custom Kernel Enabling To Run CM7 & more(UPDATE:OVERCLOCKING

Joban... do you think you can type of a howto on this step by step. There seems to be some confusion as to what steps to take exactly. Myself I didnt see the error everyone gets but I may not have done what the rest have done either and I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing. I used CWM which crapped out the first time it seemed but worked seemingly great the second time around. At least for the backup part of things.

I know you said you tried every option but if you didn't try gingerbreak then go to this link and follow the directions it seems to work for a lot of people myself included this the reason I wrote it up.

Re: Custom Kernel Enabling To Run CM7 & more(UPDATE:OVERCLOCKING

its good that you didnt get a soft brick! its cuz they all tried to backup in the rom manager app! which seems like not working for our phone, so just flash the recovery and then reboot your phone by holding the home button and the up and down volume key. Then backup the rom from there. After that you can flash any p500 rom and flash my kernel on top. Let me know if you want the kernel already cuz i still didnt get the wifi, so im not sure if you wanna do all that yet. For now just backup your rom, unless you want to try it?

Surprisingly enough I used the ROM Manager and it looked like it was going to crap out on me I got the blue screen and an error and just about freaked. But I selected the reboot option (first on the list I think) and it rebooted ok ... little sluggish at first and I had to reboot again to get it working normally then I just went in and tried the backup through the app and it seemed to work just fine the second time around. Either way it seems I got lucky and got a backup at the same time.
