_____________________________________________

**A FULL WIPE IS REQUIRED**

wipe please and everyone read this please. many phones still have small issues with 3g even the nexus s so if you lose 3g go into airplane mode and back out it will come back but it should rarley happen. Also this was built for the droid which gb was not intended for so alot of lib and stuff were used t make fixes although it is stable please remember that

If you notice your 3g is gone go into airplane mode and back out and it will come back.

Congratulations actngrezy and mojo_droid!!
 
Anybody else having issues with the phone running hot after flashing this ROM? I was close to 55C before I turned it off to cool it down. I'm at work so I have no signal to download a new kernel, but I flashed a Chevy kernel that I had on my SD Card and it seems to be running ok now. Just curious if my phone is the only having this issue.

Another thing I noticed was that I can't underclock the minimum speed below 600 ... even if I set it to something below that number, it will still show at 600.

I might just need to reflash and start over to see if that fixes the issues.

did you have the phone on the charger? I know it will stay at 600 when on the charger. I have noticed when I had the nightley rom on my phone it would go no lower than 400 snd could have it set to 250. :thinking:

getting a force close on my root explorer app, same thing was happening with LGB 1.3.
It's working fine on CM7 nightlies. Started with a full wipe and all that. Other then that it is a very fast ROM and so far very stable too.

Make sure you have the most updated version of Root Explorer. It's working great for me and the ROM is running very cool on the 1.1Ghz LV RZKernel.

Thanks GirLuvsDroid, that did the trick. For some reason not all my apps were showing up in my apps section in the market, had to restore some of them with TB and reboot and now they are all there and with updates available.

I flashed this yesterday at work. Great rom. Some issues I have seen so far are LP 3D drawer not working right. It just won't scroll right. I can scroll down, but an up scroll just takes it back to the top of the app drawer. No big deal, just not using the 3D drawer now. Juice Defender doesn't show the shield in the widget. Last night it was saying "error" above the widget. Went to the 1200 kernal; this thing is fast and snappy. Great rom. Been a loyal Liquid fan for months now, gave PE a shot on the previous version. Ran that for a day and then saw GB was up on the sight. Thanks for all the work that PE and his dev friends put in! I plan to donate, hope everyone else does too.

I am more than impressed with this ROM. I especially like the built-in ability to flash a different kernel. And then, when v5.0.1 was released last night, all I had to do was click on the update ROM option and within 3 minutes the newest build was on my phone. Fantastic work. All we need are some slick themes (like Blacked Out or NexTheme).

And for those of you experiencing high CPU temps, try flashing one of the LV Raidzero kernels. It worked for me.
