This was like 6 posts down the page.
put in clockworkmod backup folder and restore than use super one click to unroot, and factory reset. T-Mobile will never know:

i know that the kinks will be worked out eventually but this phone isnt even stable for me on the stock rom, just gonna get something more stable for the time being, i cant handle having a glitchy slow phone, especially when its suppose to be as good as this phone is.
edit: also im looking for an actual rom not a nandroid backup, something i just flash from the sd card like any other rom, i've had stock roms to restore for every phone ive had, its just convenient to be able to flash back to stock for returns and repairs

the nandroid backup i provided would be as if your flashing. there are no extra apps. you just restore and than you unroot and factory reset. did you try eagleblood rom it makes the phone better than what it truly is. i was about to return and i tried that rom and its amazing.

i didnt realize how easy the nandroid thing was, but yeah i tried eagles blood rom, it was nice, it ran like stock without bloat and had a few cool color changes, but i still got the lag on my lock screen, randomly my audio files stop working til i rebooted and just other random lock ups with videos.
its a shame cuz i love the way the phone looks, and i might kick myself in the ass for returning it someday, but right now i just dont wanna wait for those kinks to get worked out, cm7 has alot of work ahead before its stable on this phone, and some of the issues im not even sure if cm7 can fix since they seem universal.

Try returning for another unit. Nandroid works wonders. I use it all the time

The lag on the lock screen is one of many things that will be fixed in the 2.3.3 update due later this month. Every preview that I watched before this phone was released said that this phone was meant to run 2.3.3. I guess they wanted to beat HTC out with duel core so the released it with 2.2. Watch the video on this link g2x running 2.3.3. This is the nature of any phone when first released. There will be bugs. Besides going out and just getting a different phone may not be so easy. Since this phone runs vanilla android it is a lot easier to update.

Not 2.3.x but 2.4. They rushed it ahead of that. Will wait for that unless there is a real good OC lv kernel for 2.3 and not stock/modded stock.

I have an Epic, and my wife has the Evo Shift. The sprint tower in our area recently got struck by lightning, and in turn dropped our signal from all bars to no bars. Sprint says it'll be a few days at least for a fix.
What I'm wondering is what the accepted verizon PRL is for use on the Evo Shift. I just pushed a modded verizon PRL to my Epic, which the 'modder' has termed 00001. It was essentially a modding of the most recent verizon PRL in a way so that it won't show up as roaming to the phone, eliminating the extra steps to make a call and such. Of course, sprint still sees it as roaming. Can this PRL be safely used on the Evo Shift, or is there a more commonly used and accepted PRL version? We desperately need tower coverage for the interim. Any help at all would be appreciated. Thanks.
P.S. Your CM7 nightlies on the Evo Shift rock! That's what I'm running on the wife's phone...
Firstly I'm sure you know you will have to restore a sense rom or flash one to change the prl,there is another way using qpst but not recommended cuz it can screw your phone up. Any way go here to this thread over in the hero forums and get in touch with oostah or Bierce they are pretty good at what you want to pursue.

Thanks. I'll look over at the hero forums. But I was planning on using the QPST method, so I'll be looking over there with that method in mind. I've used it many times in the past with no issues.
Ok, I tried the sense prl update the other day. I tried every 2.1 sense I could find to do this. On each one I would type ##775 and when I would press the last #, it wouldn't do anything. The dialer would clear itself ready to start over again. I tried mikmik, twisted, etc. I tried to find an original froyo rom but the links to one in the wiki are dead. Anyone suggest a good rom to use or one that works for you? Link me please. Also, if the roms I've tried have worked for you, suggest what may be wrong. I tried the original mikmiks and the wouldn't even load on my shift. Never got past the splash. I really do not want to unroot. Thanks guys!

You need an older version of epst.apk.
I had to do this before and it works, but you need root explorer or adb to push it on the shift. The epst needs to be version 2.1 I believe. I can't attach from this app but a quick Google will come up with it.

KANG - To steal or a stolen code when referring to programming. Also can refer to leaked coding.
Due to the copious amounts of kanging that now happens in regards to android development I will be pulling all of my links and changing the original posts with this. If you would like to use my roms please feel free to find the kanged version elsewhere.
For inspiring developers, rtfm or ask someone who knows what they are doing before you steal someone elses work, look at someones code and get the general idea. If you port or use something as a base, credit that person. Do not just link back to the thread where you got it from. My email is [email protected] so feel free to ask questions, if I know the answers I will be willing to assist.
I don't wish to call anyone out but I will say there are a few roms, specifically for MT4G Slide that have been kanged. One of which was taken from me, another was a kanged version of CM7 which was just the Settings.apk SettingsProvider.apk and Launcher.apk replaced. CM7 is framework edits, not just a list of apps an entire team works on. You cannot just replace apps in CyanogenMod and expect it to work thus the reason some parts of the Settings.apk force close. Its not hard to be an idiot but its even easier to spot bull**** work, do yourselves a favor, leave xda, leave rootzwiki, leave whatever thread you are on and learn from people who know what the fk they're doing.
If my email fills with hate mail, then fine, at least what I did I feel was right and do not have to worry about my development being taken and rebadged, if I'm out of line then have a moderator delete and close my thread. Thanks!
Mainly because we are looking for s-off... Good work though

Does this have the insecure boot.img? What about the hboot version?
I'm currently unlocked and s-off, running UndeadK9's "stock" deodexed/rooted/optimized R2 release ROM. I don't want to lose s-off or root, but I like having a more "stock" rom as this is my only phone.

I know Daniel60104's ROM does have the unsecure boot.img, not sure on this one.
On a side note, has anyone tried flashing the radio update that accompanied this release? I know that radio is a no-go for older ROMS, but since it was designed with this release, no word yet how it works with a rooted ROM.
Anyone noticed battery life improvement on this stock version? I've been using this for a week now and I can say there's a big difference compare to the older version. I am using the non-debloat (stock). Another thing is I have yet to experience the random warm battery issue that I've been experiencing from older stock based roms.

I have noticed much better battery performance with this stock ROM, as well. I'm using Daniel's stock, rooted ROM, and I ran Bloater to take out the things I didn't want (like TMobileTV, TeleNAV, QIK). This ROM runs very quick, smooth. I'm still wondering about the newer radio, though I'm hesitant to flash it because I can't afford to screw up this phone. This is my ONLY phone, it has to work.

As long as the Md5 matches your safe, just follow the instructions one at a time, like read all the way through them once and make sure you understand the steps, then go back and start the process, that's it the phone handles the rest...BUT its still scary I understand that, Hell I've had my own EVO Shift ROM for about 10 months and i still use the stock 2.2 radio on that phone

Given that I'm running 1.55.531.3, S-OFF and rooted, with the original stock radio, and everything is working splendidly (wi-fi, bluetooth, camera, gps, etc.), I'm not gonna mess with it for now.
I'm interested to see what HTC comes out with since they halted the 1.55.531.3 OTA update due to "performance issues". When they restart, I wonder if it will be a different version, for instance.

Well them performance issues can and will be addressed asap, its all about tweaking the ROM, we had major Sense reloads on the evo shift so we learned to allocate more memory here rather than there, and once a ROM was odexed/scripted/opted they flat out flew.
When it comes to the radio on my DoubleShot i will probably never change the radio cause if it aint broke dont fix it

I went to settings/about phone.......and right under where it says "baseband version", it says those weird letters and numbers, no date. What do you guys suggest at this point? Also, EB team asked to make sure I wasnt under the march 2012 update. I guess thats why they needed the date, but there is none. So at this point where do we go from here? Should i flash a new baseband or something?

Yes I'm sure, but I reflashed everything once again and the baseband version seems normal now I guess but still no data. This is the baseband version M6600A-SCAUTNZ-2.0.9720T 1 [JUL 15 2011 10:00:00] MP: TRULGE_08.09.02R_MDM. Does this seem right?

Absolutely, that's the proper previous (should work with any ROM but the rooted 2.3.4) baseband.
Edit:
Now that you've figured that you are on the proper baseband for EB, please search around, there's a couple of threads involving either lost APN or simple mobile apn issues.
Good luck!

Ok I searched, can't find anything that will make it work. I even brought it to the store to get a new SIM card, no luck. Just to be clear, this is what I did:
-Booted to Clockwork
-wiped data/reset
-wiped cache
-dalvik wipe
-installed EB GB 2.3.7
-wiped cache again
-dalvik wipe again
-installed GB gapps
-rebooted
Data does not work!
-Did same procedure with EB AOSP 4.0.4
Data does not work!
-Did the same procedure with EB ICS 4.0.3
Data does not work!
Did the same procedure with EB GB 1.0.9
Data works fine!
Did the same procedure with EB GB 2.3.3
Data works fine!
Come on guys, we can't figure this out? I finally find a Rom I'm comfortable with(GB 2.3.7) and the data is all F's up. Wtf?
Update: Just installed AOSP 4.0.4 again and this one won't even let me save an apn. Weird.
Nothing?
Did you search the 2.3.7 thread for simple mobile APN fix. Most likely that's still the problem

No I havent. How shall I find this 2.3.7 link? I can't understand why GB 2.3.7 and ICS have a simple mobile Aphrodite already there when you install it....weird. How do I get to the 2.3.7 link?
I've figured out the data problem in case anyone cares.
1) It seems as though simple mobile apns work just fine on GB 2.3.3 Roms.
2) It seems like on GB 2.3.7 Roms, the simple mobile apns do not work.
3) It seems like on EB ICS 4.0.3 is the same problem as the GB 2.3.7 Roms and EB ICS 4.0.4 you can't even create an apn period, it wont save.
Here is the fix:
When you flash GB 2.3.7 or ICS 4.0.3, there is a T-Mobile apn already there. Within that apn do this:
Replace the name with Simple
Replace the apn with simple
And in "MMSC", after the "http://" and before the ".mms", enter "smpl" without the quotation marks of course and save. That's it! Well worked for me atleast.
I haven't tried it with EB 4.0.4 yet because like I said, there is no default apn there already and you can't create one because after you hit save, it doesn't save. I am working on this issue with EB. Ill let you guys know.
Ok, spoke to EB, they said go into super user app and check "allow", then run rom manager app, click fix pemissions, then when it asks to reboot, turn off instead, boot without sim card, let boot up all the way, then reboot with sim. Seemed to work. Hope this helps someone.
Hi
pla help me
I have LG optimus T (T mobile - USA)..can i install Ginger Snap GB ROM in my LG optimus T....Is it same as international vertion LG optimus one??
is that installing procedure same in both device ?
pls anyone help me...
thanks
It's the same except you'll need to run the fixbb command in terminal emulator to get service, it explains exactly what to do in the rom's thread.
P509 in US
I am running Gingersnap on my P509 with no issues. Any rom working for the P500 will work on P509. As of yet, I have found no reason to make the baseband upgrade. An old baseband fix exists for most roms even in ICS. I just wish there was a way to change the model number under phone status. It bothers me that my phone pretends to be a LG-P500.

If all you want is to change the device name in the phone status, you can do that easily by editing the build.prop of your phone. If you're not comfortable editing the raw build.prop file, I suggest getting JRummy's Build Prop Editor -- there's less chances of messing up that way. Still, always be sure to make a backup of your original build.prop.
Anyway, the entry you want to change is ro.product.model -- change it to LG-P509. Change only that entry; if you mess around and don't know what you're doing, you'll risk bootloops. Save the change you made, then reboot. It should now say LG-P509 in the phone status.
