Root [ROM] CyanogenMod 7 for the LG Optimus M MS690

This ROM still going great for me:D - also liking the c~oo~l 3Dicon wallpaper - love the way it changed the phone dialing pad and colors overall. Couple questions:

1) In case wanted to change where it says Network (within phone, status): is there way we could go in and manually change or input to say Metro?

2) My current mod version is: CyanogenMod-7.2-LG...09082011, is it necessary to update to 09092011?

Thanks again :) Playfulgod.
look for /data/eri.xml

Is there a file somewhere I can edit to fix the "Power Button Hangs Up Call" option? I unchecked it at Settings -> Accessibility -> (Cancel) Power Button Ends Call but it still hangs up the call. I also tried wiping everything and re-flashing the ROM with no luck. I know the screen goes out while your talking, using the handset but not while your on Bluetooth... at least not immediately. I tend to answer the phone, switch to BT, lock the phone and put the phone in my pocket... I've hung up on quiet a few calls "locking" the screen... lol

I was trying to play with the adb wireless app. I pushed the big button like it says to do, and then granted it the super user authority. I then goto my command line window in Windows. I make sure I'm in the correct path (I haven't bothered to put it into the path so I just cd into the correct path). I get the message saying daemon not running starting it on port 5037 and started successfully, but then it comes back with error unable to connect to the ip i put in. I double checked it several times to make sure I had typed in the correct IP and I had. The first time I typed it in I had put the :5555 at the end of the IP like it told me to type in, but the error came back as IP:5555:5555 so I just typed the IP in and the error came back just as IP:5555. Still unable to connect though. Any thoughts or ideas?

I asked this once, in an earlier post, but it probably got missed, 'cause I never saw a reply about it: Is there a way to set the screen shot option, in the long press of the power button, to take jpg's instead of png's? I know it's possible to converts png to jpg but I'd rather not go through the hassle of doing that. For instance, imageshack requires jpg's and a few other formats, but not png.

use photobucket and u wont have to convert em etc ;) png is a better format and allows use of transparency ;)

But I'll have to look to see if the format can be changed.

yeah, and it's a pretty nice rom, some problems with setcpu and a few other apps not running, but nothing major.

I think trying to install CWM over joneidys custom recovery results in a semi-brick though, at least thats what happened to me, took me hours to fix. Just figured it would be interesting to point out.


I was able to put CWM recovery over GNM's recovery with no problems. I also was able to go back to the GNM recovery with no problem. I just used the flash image GUI app. I'm not sure how well it all plays with joneidy's recovery though.

Ok, so I signed up with photobucket. Now I see if I can post a screen shot.

Edit: Well, very good. Thanks for pointing out photobucket.

DaniellieeE;3201153]Have been using this ROM for about 3 days and I'm really liking it so far. I was only able to test MMS by sending myself a photo and it came thru. The only thing sort of not working exactly right is my status bar tweaking, where even if I add more buttons they won't show or allow for status bar scroll. But if I reboot it'll show added button but no scrolling. No big deal for me, may be something in settings?? Yesterday thought my data3G was not working but worked as soon as I rebooted. Overall this ROM is working very very nice and smooth.

Thank you!! I will see if mine acts the same way with the status n if so try to find a fix for it. And umm no a diff recovery wont have any affect on the main OS ;)

^^^^ sorry meant to write status bar scroll and buttons -now working so thanks for fixing

Note on Version Protocol: Current version protocol is CM-7-7.2-LG-MS690-DATE-signed.zip.
Note 1: Using a cpu oc app and settings the min cpu speed up to around 245 seems to help the screen wake up issue.
