hi sam

so its time to updated icy for O1...

i have download CM 9-KANG... currently i'm with O2... the up gradation process looks tedious :(

Install official Gingerbread using KDZ -> rooting by superoneclick-> install custom recovery -> and Finally CM9

is there a easy process?

I'm very much interested in this new 4.0.3 ROM. My only question is that how can I get the new baseband in my phone? Currently using Cyanogenmod-7.2.0-RC0-OptimusOne-KANG.

for both of you:
flash the newbaseband using the LG MDP or if your mobile is still under warranty, take it to service center and ask them to flash the official GB. come home, root it, flash custom recovery, then ICS.

what is LG MDP? is it possible to upgrade the baseband alone??

Hope the below link is correct for baseband upgrade..

yes. follow the link. but backup the current baseband and save it. even if everything goes fine, save it somewhere. secondly, disable LG virtual modem. i got stuck in the flashing process halfway and it was by sheer luck that my mobile was not rendered unusable.

i think i have done it correctly... MDP utility says "Download complete!
But baseband is mentioned as Unknown in O2!! hope O2 doesn't recognize new baseband..

why gapps by Kang is 50MB!!?

O2 upto a certain version has old baseband. so it'll show as unsupported. once you flash CM7.2 or Cm9, it'll show baseband as well as signal.

open it with rar & delete the optional folder. you may delete more files. check the decrapify your android link from my signature.

Oh thanks man.. Tried giving reputation to you but it says "You must spread some reputation around". :).. BTW, that PC Sync software is huge. 117 MB..

I update the phone to the official LG Gingerbread update via the LG PC Sync software. But, now the phone is stuck on the Android screen. What should I do?

EDIT:- Did a hard reset & it is working again.

this looks like a common problem for LG & Samsung. once updated, mobile gets stuck in manufacturer screen. hard reset to the rescue again :)

successfully migrated to ICS.. its super cool.. thanks sam..

enjoy :grin:

BTW, gallery works?

enjoy. i have used ICS just after a month its sources were released. seen Cyanogenmod9 grow from a almost unusable (extremely laggy, slow, bad battery life, buggy like hell) rom to the most stable, usable and one with best battery life.

ICS is one beautiful OS. sad that our mobile can't utilize it fully nor can we use it properly cause of the small screen but still, once you use it. you'll love it :)

Updates:- The phone feels fast now. The camera is NOT working. The gallery doesn't either.

@Royal_tarun, how did your gallery start working again?
