I downloaded a 4+ min video to my O1 with 23fps, size around 110 MB and 11536 bitrate. The video didnt play with stock player, i tried with rock player. the video plays but it lags so much that it is as good as not playng.. :(
any idea what HQ video that O1 supports ??

Hmmm ... francofrancisco's patches applied ?

no. should i or install franco's rom instead? cause i am very much satisfied with Void's performance & battery life, when GPRS is off.

I guess you know me by now .... I consider battery life as the main feature of midrange fones ... And I can assure you that CM7 is almost at par with Froyo ...

Just try it for a week before giving up ... Flash, battery calibrate, discharge to 0, charge to 100 again ... frm this point on, you will see how good the battery life is ...

does it really increase battery life? & what are the possible side effects?

about CM7, i'll most probably go for it next. want to try gingerbread. friend using G5 is already on 2.3 & i am stuck at 2.2. really wish to change but holding myself cause its still in beta.

It is in beta only because the bluetooth handsfree does not work ...

There are no side effects for wiping battery stats .... Battery stats are nothing but files that the OS maintains to gaze the battery ... so when u change ROMs, the old battery stats may remain causing incorrect battery level to be displayed and phone turning off even when some battery is left ... so it is recommended to always wipe battery stats ...

I tell you this ... since u are uncertain, wait out till the official GB arrives ... then go for CM7 once the kernel is updated with tweaks from LG kernel ...

no. i was asking about flashing fanco's tweaks. i already wiped battery.

lets see. i wanted to make my own rom but no time for it.

AmonRa recovery should work. else flash clockwork mod recovery.

also as there is only 2 gingerbread, so not much choice. either Andy's 2.3 or Mike's CM7.

yes. thats what need to be done. after backing up, transfer it to PC.

My custom recovery is this one.The LG Optimus One P500 Blog: Installing Custom Recovery on LG Optimus One P500
will it be enough.

Abt the nandroid backup,how big will it be.with 200Mb free in the sd card,can I back up?

this is the one i am having too. should work. just read the instructions given in the ROM page.

backup takes around 350-400Mb. you can backup some of your songs or any such things to PC & take backup.

nand is must
android secure if you want ur installed apps
ext is if you want apps back and u are using app2sd ...

nand should suffice

Installed gingerbread yesterday.this one.Unofficial [ROM] Cyanogenmod 7.0.3 (Android 2.3.4) Gingerbread for Optimus T - xda-developers
Dont know if its the rom version prob,but there was no market.,talk crashed,no google account option in the accounts.just exchange account was present.the only major diff i felt was regarding the looks.The menu and all where lagging.One thing I fell in love was the curved keylock.

well the gingerbread lasted just an hour.I wiped everything and restored my nandroid backup.the phone booted.The apple icon burned down and the LOL name appeared..and it again burned nd again and then stood still at burning.Tried 3 nandroid backups.same result.

So flashed the original LOL again.Thanks to titanium backup,gotback many of the apps.lost many new contacts and msgs as i didnt backup dem.Still I am almost back to normalcy now.Wont try a gigngerbread till its officially released now.

CyanogenMod 7.0.2

When compared with Wildfire S,Optiums one still scores

LG Optimus One vs HTC Wildfire S

No idea when the will update to 2.3

know your mobile comparison of O1 vs WS gave this point thats really hard to agree:

but where the Optimus One excels is in graphical performance, and this is down to the inclusion of a dedicated graphics processing unit (GPU), so if you're looking to game you should look to the Optimus One.

AFAIK both uses the same SOC, MSM7227 & so should ship with Adreno 200 which is a dedicated GPU. then why the credit goes to O1 only?

however optimus one still wins hands down once you consider the price of wildfire S (rumored to be 15k). also there is nothing written about the Gorilla glass covering on WS as someone pointed out a couple of weeks ago here. or there isn't any gorilla glass?

^ Wildfire S is what the original wildfire should have been

:+1: for 15k, it would have been the best Android mobile. sadly, too late.
