Hello XDA!
I've got a question.
Currently running a rooted LG O3D with stock ROM.
I've read quite a bit about Custom ROMS, I hear friends talking about it, I know what it does, BUT...
What ROM should I take?
I'd love to year your LGO3D stories...
Note: I do not mind losing 3D options (as long as I can get back to it by backing up).
Alot of thanks in advance!
Lrpvo
Edit: I would like specific stories of O3D users, as I've read enough others... Just need to be sure it'll run on my device.
i think ThiaiZ roms are the best!
they are so smooth & fast (Specially in preparing sd card)
Also they are compatible with each game.. (unlike Accura roms)
Thanks Dark Fear!
To all, update:
Yesterday got everything ready to flash CM7 Nightly on O3D, didn't get to do it, so did it this morning. Ran fine until 4 pm, when I was backing up files using ROM Manager, Lights Out. Now getting zero response from my phone.
Trying to flash back stock.
Keeping you posted.
thiaiz is fantastic,
CM7 is fantastic as well (although much different approach).
for those with gsm-problems (like me), CM7 with froyo baseband is the best solution (no 3D)
I had GSM problems today too =.= only thing I disliked 'bout it...
Though, anyone any ideas on getting my phone alive? It's not responding at all atm...

This'd be my guess. I've got a dead phone, not reacting on anything. Did get it to be recognised as a Omap4430 device (using Power+vol up) but that was at school on a PC I can't use to install software from LG I need to use... My win7 won't pop this up so I'm screwed.
Any1 else ideas?
i was scared at first too, a whole new world because i came from a sony erricson satio (symbian s60v5) and now android, wth?!
just did a lot of reading about rooting and flashing roms and now it all goes as smooth as i used to go!
had almost every rom installed (only cm7 not, bought a 3d speed, why wipe the 3d section off?). i know now that oc1,2 drains battery so i always take 1188mhz. i currently running rushdroid v3.6 and that works pretty smooth and fast but thiaZ en acurateam are also very good roms!
i'm just waiting for an ics rom
Good thinking..

If you want back to stock from CM7 restore backup in CWM wont work. You must install from cwm any stock rom (Thaiz, King3drom, etc..) and then restore backup.
If you cant enter to CWM you must install rom from kdz

If you want to you computer to recognize phone as omap4430 try to remove battery before power+vol UP

HA! Good one.
Once it's S-off its like a woman Stripping. So im going to play with it, poke it, swipe it, make it work faster, tweak it, turn it on, until its nice and ready for my custom rom to penetrate its memory.
Lol, only joking going to whack a custom rom on it and then skin it.
First thing I will do is create a post demanding where S-Off 2.0 is
Its much better.

Really increase the volume on the sucker so I can hear people on speaker phone.
And yes I have equalizer and Volume + installed and still sucks lol....
I agree with you on this one, very first thing is the VOLUME problem, hopefully a custom ROM will fix this by removing the software that limiting the volume sound of the speaker.

LeeDroid of course, big fan of him since the DHD i bought in December, plus his custom Kernal is really good. my DHD was running on 1.8 GHZ
I installed adfree... One of the best apps in the market.
Tweet about it.
And then open a new thread on xda, screaming with all caps.
Can I have s-off on the existing official ROM without any data been lost?
After that, could I have permanent root? root persists even after reboot?
What else I can do after s-off except for flashing for a new ROM?

Download and run terminal emulator. Then type IDDQD. If that doesn't work, type IDKFA.
Closed until further notice, that's until I get my zip filing sorted out. Thanks to the one tester I had. Mods can delete this.

downloaded fine. put it on my internal sd card, tried to install thru CWM, and it aborted immediately with a status 0 error.

Thanks for your help mate.
for what its worth, the other rom posted also isnt working. maybe its our CWM? it backups and restores fine, but i dont think anything has been tested as far as flashing.
no cwm works fine, its just the roms themselves. hes getting status 0 because he has an old update-binary in there.
however you do need to be careful because the other rom (who im guessing was also using dsixdia's kitchen) was trying to use an update-script (which hasnt been able to be used since CWM 3.0, we are on 5.5.0.4 now... cwm 3.0 was out with froyo).
if you want proof of that go find something like the v6 supercharger script and flash that, or any of the many many flashable things that wont screw up your system (here is a really good one i recommend its a REALLY nioce anti theft app) or heck look in your own general section for a man that took some time making toggles for you guys http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1620918 he seems to have it flashing through cwm.
the common denominator isnt cwm, its people using rom kitchens :/ if you want to use them to speed things along thats fine, really it is... however if your starting off and thats all you use then when things go wrong (like this or the other rom thread) you dont know how to fix it because you didnt learn on how things work.. just what options make your phone go zoom zoom! please dont take this as a bashing, but more of a "the more you know" kinda **** if your serious about rom development then pick up and learn.

QFT. It's best to learn the basics first, and go from there. Kitchens are bad news - don't use them, ever preferably, and at least not until you get the basics down. You'll have troubles otherwise.
Hi. Right now, my goal is to get my LG G2X back to stock ROM. Is this possible? I have no backup.
I don't have a backup. Thanks
Also, I don't mind this ROM....it seems to work okay BUT the reason I want to go back to stick is that the auto focus on the camera is not working properly. I tend to think this may be something to do with this ROM. Anyone have a fix for it or heard of this before?
•Current Rom - - bioniX reloaded v1.4.1
•Current kernel - - 2.6.32.9
•If you have done ANY undervolting or overclocking - - i don;t know.
•If you had this problem before (either on other ROM's or previously on your current ROM) - - no, i just want stock
•If you wiped Cache - no
•If you wiped Data - yes
•If you tried installing another ROM - no.
•Any other things you already tried (BE SPECIFIC!) - some research and that is it.

Depending what base band you are on (go in about phone and check what date the base band shows), you flash the stock nand from the link above.
P.s: the way you filled your form reminded me of the "I don't care I want an I phone" anime video on you tube. Lol

Thanks for the link!!

Alright! The stock rom is on the phone. However, the rom was not the issue with the phone
Oh well! learning experience. I am going to try and repair the camera
thanks for the help. I did get the nandroid romm flashed over and working great
Well, I found out that it is not the OS that was causing the auto focus problem. So, I took it apart and got the camera off the main board...so easy on this phone I was so happy.
I bought a new one for 11.00 on ebay. just waiting for it to come in now.
In regard to the OS. I was able to flash it back to stock thanks to the nandroid. Thanks for the help.

To show appreciation, clicking the "thanks" button isn't a bad idea. Is it now
If you would have asked, I would have told auto focus is rarely a ROM issue.

Hello everyone! I'm new to this forum and a complete NOOB to moding Lg Optimus 3D (saw the 'new members’ video’!) Anyway let me get to what my problems are:
I bought LG P920 ( O3D ) after the first month of its release in EUROPE. I bought the phone in Greece while it came from GERMANY. Not sure what firmware it was on since i didn’t really care about modding it , custom roms etc. but i updated using Lg support tool ONCE ...The only thing i did with the phone was just rooting it using Megatron for Windows .I updated to ICS last week. I think it was on V21E before i update it to ICS 4.0.4 but not quite sure about that. To be honest i thought things would get better, at least visually! After the update i did a HARD RESET to O3D so that it’s like new and re-install settings and apps from the beginning. I found out that a lot of apps i use (around 5-10) are not compatible with ICS so i’m kind of stuck. Back before the update it did cost me some extra battery but things run smooth 99% of the time. So i kind of regret updating to ICS since i can’t really use my phone to make things easier with my job. ICS is really nice to have but GB ( i think but not sure) worked really nice for what i needed . So, long story short, i want to downgrade back from ICS. I searched the forums but i think i got more confused than i was. Any chance i get a link of the correct guide i should follow for the downgrade. I found xbsall's resurrection guide but i want to be 100% sure before i do something on my phone.
The reason is, and the second part of my question, that LG support tool is not working since this week. I any of my 2 PCs ( 1 with Windows XP and 1 with Windows 7 ). I uninstalled Lg drivers for the smartphone and uninstalled the tool, reboot a hundred times, tried everything but i still can’t get it to work. It is installed but every time i get to open it, it gets here:

and then i get this . Any help to get it to work? That would help so i can try and downgrade my O3D and if something goes wrong , i can restore it using LG support tool!
Thank you everyone in advance, XCowX
Anyone ?
Forget Mobile No Support 'Tool.' It is just about worthless. You want LG Flash Tool

As far as GB I have never gone back, but you should be able to just flash a .bin. and. fls.
Hi!
I bought this device few time after the release. At the time there was an official update from ASUS and I updated it. I remember that it said that there was no way to go back to the original firmware. The thing is. I unlocked my device at that time and now, after trying many different custom ROMS, there is not one that works ok. My device is slow, always hanging, it's not usable at all. My question for the experts are:
- Do I have the correct firmware, kernel, whatever installed?
- What ROM can I install that does not have these problems?

Many of the KitKat ROMs are a lot faster. I used CROMBi for a while, at it was mostly stable. You will have to unlock your bootloader and flash a TWRP 2.8
Thanks cmendonc2. The problem is that I updated the tablet itself (not the ROM) as soon as I bought it and it has been slow since that time. I don't know if I can revert to the state that was from factory. I already tried many ROM's and the slowness is always there.
Katkiss 4.4.4 plus added in Seeder.apk..
The thing screams...
I am running it next to the Nexus 10 and both are running about the same..
Only thing is the TF300T is a bit slower on the Multitasking when downloading from Play Store and or TB backup installs..
otherwise if I was to be buying one for someone, at the price they are now, plus the expandable storage options...
I would still think this was not a bad buy..
As the Nexus 10 has great specs and zooms but its developed a yellow tinge on the screen that seems to happen to a few of them after 1-2 years..
and its not like the screen is on for extended periods.. or left on.. just a production fault.. we are having a go at Google now about it.. as cant even get replacement LCD's for it..

I installed CROMBi but the problem remains. My TF300T has some other problem that began with the first official asus upgrade I made. No one knows what I'm talking about? The tablet is slow to do everything, except when inside apps.
Try to wipe internal memory from recovery and flash katkiss 5.0.1 rom. It works better than kitkat roms
