    Ok so I have ported a few Gingerbread ROMs to the M and I ported BACKside to the C for you guys. Due to not much in responses I did not continue doing much more.

    So if anyone would like to take this up to support everyone for the C, here's what you do:

    1) If it is not an Optimus M ROM follow this: http://androidforums.com/optimus-m-...e-porting-lg-vortex-optimus-t-v-s-roms-m.html
    BUT
    use these files: OptCUniV1.0_2.zip

    2) If it is an Optimus M ROM you still need OptCUniV1.0_2.zip from above
    AND all you need to port is:

    In /system/etc replace:
    apns-conf.xml
    dbus.conf
    gps.conf
    hosts
    media-profiles.xml
    resolv.conf
    vold.fstab

    And in /system replace:
    build.prop

    After You flash whatever ROM you port:

    To fix MMS (Flash this right over the ROM directly afterwards): Cricket-MMS-Fix_signed.zip

    Details to implement MMS fix by PlayfulGod into your ported ROM are to come later :);)


    This has never been tried on Froyo ROMs. This WILL NOT work with ICS.

    OK I did the wipe/data/partition cache/dalvik and battery plus flash rom I started jumping for joy and boot loop on me...
    Second I did the wipes *flash rom* then gapps it booted fine it went into Wizard application even tho you sign in it "force close" leaves wit a black screen and a status bar???



    *Is there any other files to replace or did i do something wrong in the recovery???

    I'm guessing one of 3 options,
    1) Bad download
    2) Bad upload by me....
    3) Bad port by you

    I recently discovered that my earlier releases of this ROM had a trojan in it :eek: and I never tested flashing it after changing the launcher that was infected...

    Hey sammyz got the LG v-4 working wit out a PC?

    *what not seems to work is picture messages, I send a picture to myself n it says "sending" I think if I let system sync little more it'll work...

    *What file manger I used on on optimus c **x-plore** it has a rench on it.

    *I used the guide from here


    Did you flash mms fix afterwards?
    Also you flash it directly after flashing the rom, no reboot in between
