its the source code here is the readme


How to build

1. Android build

(1) Get the android base source code.
- Download the original android source code (Android 2.3.4 gingerbread) from http://android.googlesource.com

(2) Overwrite modules that you want to build.
- Untar opensource packages of LGP505_Thunder_ATT_GingerBread_v20f.tar.gz into downloaded android source directory
- And, merge the source into the android source code(gingerbread)

(3) Run the build scripts.
- You have to add google original prebuilt source(toolchain) before running build scripts.
- Run the following scripts to build android
$ ./build/envsetup.sh
$ make -j4
into the android folder
- If the android is built sucessfully, you will find the outputs in this directory,
"out/target/product/generic".


2. Kernel Build

(1) Untar using following command at the android folder (./android/kernel)
$ tar xvfz LGP505_Thunder_ATT_GingerBread_v20f_KERNEL.tar.gz

(2) Set the compile environment
- gcc 4.4.3
- Ubuntu 10.04.1
- export PATH=$PATH:/<android_path>/prebuilt/linux-x86/toolchain/arm-eabi-4.4.3/bin/
("android_path" should be android path name in your system.)

(3) Run the script, "envsetup.sh" in the android folder.
$ cd android
$ ./build/envsetup.sh

(4) Execute make
- move to the kernel folder and execute make
$ cd kernel
$ make ARCH=arm thunderg-perf_defconfig
$ make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=/<PATH of android working directory>/android/prebuilt/linux-x86/toolchain/arm-eabi-4.4.3/bin/arm-eabi- -j8

- If the kernel is built sucessfully, you will find the build images in this directory,
"kernel/arch/arm/boot/zImage"

Hello,

I need to get gingerbread on my thrive to run the new OneNote for Android. Do I follow the source code instructions or is there something else I need to look at.

I am pretty stupid about this stuff especially running scripts but I am researching what I need to do but don't know where to start. Do I want the source code stuff from LG or something else like Gingerbreak.

Thanks

go to lg website and get the mobile updater tool. install on pc and plug in phone. click update. this is assuming that thrive got the update too.
