    Root Battery Usage in Jiilik's rom v008?

    Hi guys - not sure if it's just my imagination, but since I've upgraded to v008 of my rom, I've noticed a substantial increase in the phone's battery life. I don't have anything quantitative to back this up. Anecdotally, however, I've found that I can go four days or more without having to...

    Root Cyanogenmod porting efforts

    Heya folks, So I've been working on trying to get Cyanogenmod 7.x built and installed on the phone. The good news is that I can get it to build. I can't get it to boot fully, however. When I boot the phone, it almost even works! The kernel boots - the logo dims. It stops there. Well...

    Root Manually upgrading radio to v20a

    Hiya folks, Standard disclaimers apply, like voiding warranty, killing kittens, etc. So, this phone was originally shipped with 2.1 and radio v10c or v10d. A few months ago, LG issued an update to 2.3.3 and radio v20a. This update was not an OTA (over the air) update, but required the download...

    Hi guys, Just dropping a line to do some cross-communication. I'm working on the LG Shine Plus aka alohag or C710h, a phone that is closely related to the Ally, but sold in Canada by Telus. It's pretty much the Ally with a different camera and a few tweaks. We recently received an update...

    Root Poking around the LG ROM cataloging the .apks

    Hi guys, So I was a little bored, and motivated to see what I can do with regard to porting CM 7 to our beloved Shine Plus. So I got a copy of karendar's 2.3.3 rom and lined it up next to CyanogenMod 7.1 for the LG Optimus2X. Here's my initial interpretation of some of the differences...

    Root Raw 2.3.3 update files, dumped from LG update tool

    Hi guys, So I got tired of trying to find a way to get the radio.img file from the phone, and figured I might try to circumvent the whole thing. I borrowed my gf's windows laptop and ran the lg update tool - while it was downloading the update, I did some snooping. I monitored the filesystem...
