Sebastian,FL

Here ya go folks, a proper port of CM7 for the LG Optimus M. Donations are greatly appreciated, but are not required!!

  • Author: PlayfulGod
  • Developers: PlayfulGod and BobZhome
  • Current Version: 10182011
  • Description: CM7 port for the LG Optimus M. Well, let's be honest. Unless you're living under a rock, you probably know what Android 2.3.5 (Gingerbread) is. Furthermore, you should know what the CyanogenMod project is. However, if a rock is really your home and you'd like to learn more, please visit their site: CyanogenMod | Android Community Rom based on Jelly Bean

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.

How to Install ClockworkMod Recovery:

How to Install Unofficial CWM with ROM Manager
Its been reported that fastboot is disabled in the bootloader on the OM. An app called Flash Image GUI seems to install CWM with ease. And there is always the terminal method:

  • Open command prompt
adb shell adb su mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock5 /system cat /sdcard/flash_image > /system/bin/flash_image chmod 755 /system/bin/flash_image flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img reboot recovery You can also install via a terminal program, but again the recovery.img and flash_image must both be on the root of your sd card
su mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock5 /system cat /sdcard/flash_image > /system/bin/flash_image chmod 755 /system/bin/flash_image flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img reboot recovery
This installed PlayfulGod's recovery and booted into it. You then must use the volume up/down keys to navigate the menu and camera button to actually access the menu/command.
I also installed the recovery using Flash Image GUI that I found a PPC geeks. I can confirm that PlayfulGod's recovery works well. It does have a error message at the bottom, but that doesn't seem to screw up any functions



  • Thanks to sillyputtyddd for the correct command syntax.

Note: To boot into recovery do the following:

  • Turn off phone, hold down the power button + volume down + home button.

  • Thanks to papasmurf520 for the key combo.
 
Yea BobzHome and Playfulgod were pretty powerful ROMs for this phone back in its day. I've since stopped using the M but I still run Bobz on it, the one for 11-13-11.
 
I just flashed cwm through rom manager rebooted back to home screen fine turned device off to reboot into recovery to flash rom now stuck in fastboot how do I fix this please
