P.S. I am on Void Echo. Can I flash Franco's latest kernel? I have already flashed his P500 tweaks file... Is this kernel different?
franco.Kernel.v13.7
Cheers!

you can i think. but as always take backup. as the same kernel is compatible with CM7 so should support 2.2 too.

Did it...

1. Copied the kernel (2.4 MB) to the SD Card.
2. Booted to Custom Recovery AmonRa
3. Wiped Cache
4. Wiped Dalvik Cache
5. Wiped Battery Stats
6. Patched kernel
7. Wiped Cache again
8. Wiped Dalvik Cache again
9. Wiped Battery Stats one more time...
10. Reboot

Took a very long time to reboot. I got a little worried. I had Nandroid backup on my PC and thought might need it now... But everything worked out fine...

Don't see any change... but I am sure stuff has improved under the hood. Its been 4 hours since I have unplugged the phone from charger... Battery is @77% under heavy use (Mostly Browsing on Wifi, using Apps like Engadget, NDTV, Go SMS Pro, Gmail, and a bit of Gaming). That is excellent...

Cheers!

do you have nandroid backup? if yes, just flash it.

else, restore apps from titanium backup. remove titanium backup. unroot.

and one more query ,

LG PC suite or KDZ updater (risk involved. high chance of getting mobile bricked).

thats really good battery backup. by how much battery life improved? also angry birds without sound eats more battery than other games with sound :?
 
LG on Italian Facebook posted that the GB update for optimus one has been approved. It will take only few days now for the update to come. I guess we will get an official GB update by next week.

Angry birds is certainly heavy... I don't understand how the old iPhone 2G can handle this game a lot better than an OCed Optimus One...

From my observation, battery easily lasts more than 40 hours with medium usage. On my stock LG ROM, I couldn't get it to last more than 24 hours...

I have noticed that a reboot at night before going to bed prevents excessive battery drain as many background apps close. On stock LG ROM, a night standby would drain my battery 10% to 15%... now its down to 5% with Edge and Sync on.

Cheers!

I am screwed... The phone suddenly went blank. Wouldn't start. So, I removed the battery and restarted it. Now, its stuck on boot loop.

Edit: Now Franco tells me...

DON'T FLASH THIS KERNEL BEFORE DELETING /system/etc/tweaks.sh AND/OR /system/etc/00script OR ANY OTHER TWEAK FILE THAT CAME FROM ME!!!!!!! IF YOU DON'T DO THIS YOUR PHONE WON'T BOOT! Don't tell me I didn't warn you
franco.Kernel.v14

This warning was not there yesterday... Now what to do? I am totally screwed...

Remove battery ... put it back in .... boot into recovery and flash any ROM you want .... be sure to wipe everything before flashing a ROM

OK... I guess that is the only option left...

Restored from Nandroid backup (after mounting SD Card). Restore successful.

But the phone still did not boot...

^ I say forgot all that and just go to mik GB beta 6.5 ... flash app2sd, franco's tweaks ... recalibrate battery and forget everything ... use your phone :)

multiple kernel flashing will cause trouble ... considering the number of scripts you are running ....

I am doing it manually... Using Amonra custom Recovery... Very easy process...

My System folder is a mess... so many freezes and boot loops today... any chance I can start from the beginning? Today was a very bad day for my phone... Hope its not a physical problem...

Tonight, I am going Gingerbread for good...

The phone froze again... and got stuck in boot loop again. Had to flash again. My beautiful phone is a wreck. Void's modules no longer work even after creating folders. So, I think it is time to test the GB waters.

There is no Mik's 6.5 link available... only 6.5.1 is there, which is buggy as you all have found out. I am going for 6.3 now...

Cheers!

P. S. Anyone's got a link for Mik's 6.5 version?

-------------------------------------------------------
Successfully installed CyanogenMod 7 Mik 6.3B

1. Wiped everything
2. Formatted SD Card
3. Recreated Ext2 partition
4. Converted to Ext3
5. Wiped System folder using a patch given on Mik's page...
6. Wiped everything again... just to be sure...
7. Installed Mik_Os 6.3B

:)

I am not sure if CyanogenMod requires ext3/ext4 partitions for a2sd. Seems like the feature is built-in into the ROM. Should I remove this ext partition?

Cheers!
