Bought LG Optimus One on 21st May for Rs. 9800/- !
Add me in the list :)

2moro gonna read all post in this thread and any1 gonna guide which apps to use ?

One Question :-

Most of the programs like Memo, Messaging, Gmail, Video,Music player, etc... automatically start running in background and consuming RAM !!
How to stop that from running automatically ?

Congrats!!! :grin:
if ur really desperate to stop the apps(like the stock apps from lg) u cud try and use titanium backup to try and freeze the apps.....or u cud jus flash CM7 on it!:p

Wow Sam ... you are really good at this :D

;-)

and coming to KDZ, it will knock off your recvery as well ... That is the reason why KDZ is considered so dangerous for bricking fones ... it will replace custom recovery with standard ... only option is to root and install recovery again ...

but do stock rom ship with their own recovery? or KDZ simply removes the custom recovery (stock doesn't have any custom recovery AFAIK)?

alternately this can be done after restoring nand backup (found in XDA)

1) Save the original recovery as original-recovery.
2) Copy it to the "Root" of your sdcard
3) Open adb or terminal emulator and type the following
Code:
flash_image recovery /sdcard/original-recovery.img

safer i guess.

Have you tried playing with the notification settings in CM7 ?

"hide on change"? it is turned off. this is the only setting where something about notification buttons are given.

yeah im using francos tweaks with mik_os's cm7(beta6.5)...i dont see any performance improvements but battery lasts arnd an hour longer so i get abt 30-35 hrs on an avg

im really sorry guys but i was wrong....after flashing francos tweaks,battery performance has gone up a lot....with light usage of wifi and gaming(nfs shift) and some heavy texting im getting arnd 40 hrs of battery life as opposed to 30-25 hrs of battery life i was getting before!!!

They do .. its bare minimum with a few options ... every android device has a recovery menu ... even when u r installing amonra, u would first backup ur original recovery image

guys should i go for it or wait for
1. Spice mi 410
2. Htc salsa

1. Spice mi 410 - Nice screen but running 2.1 ???... Dont buy
2. HTC Salsa - Decent all round but considering it is HTC, it will be expensive ... I am guessing it will be priced above Wildfire S ...

If you want a screen like SPice Mi 410, instead buy the dell xcd35

if you want something like the HTC Salsa, but the o1 or Galaxy Ace

6.5.1



some XDA members were saying that 6.5.1 got a few problem & performance degraded actually.

I haven't seen any performance changes, wifi also working fine..they might running huge ext partition or havent OC it correctly.
