It's fine. Not a big deal anyway xD but yes, It's very appealing. The downside is it takes up a lot of space >.<

It's worth it if you manage your space, there's never a downside to having an sd-ext partition to store apps in, if space is the issue

I don't know what is wrong with it but when I'm done choosing everything it says install so I clicked install then it instantly goes to the reboot now screen.....it doesn't show it install anything. Any suggestions? I really want some of these tweaks

Idk I could try on one of my mdpi devices, I tried these tweaks on a hdpi phone so far. Dunno if that really makes a difference.

What I'm saying is I tried it on my LG myTouch 4G, but not the Optimus V. But it's been reported to work on plenty of phones.

It doesn't install like an app, its more like installing a rom. Everything you selected is installed, there are no controls. Seemed to speed up my phone, I guess it works.

You need to pull out the update-binary file from your ROMs zip /META-INF/com/google/android/ rename it update-binary-installer and place it in /META-INF/com/google/android/ in the Pimp My Rom zip and flash that. Instructions on on the Pimp My ROM post.

fyi--- you should take a look at the guts of the zip... and look at what tweaks whatever rom youre currently running already includes... a lot of these tweaks are standard in cm already, and my ports already contain a vast majority that arent... i dont consider themes/apps to be tweaks... food for thought...
