If it is, can we somehow include this device, and the Optimus T in the Optimus One section? Maybe you can just take the "One" out of the name and/or not add "All" in it's place?
It's not the same device but it has similar specs.

yeah, when I say the same I mean in terms of running all the same stuff. Like if a ROM works on one, it works on the other. I'm thinking this should be the case; almost certainly for the S and T (just stands for carrier), and I'm thinking for the One also... with exception to the radios. I'd love to see people try that out to see.
I might be getting the Optimus S for my wife if I don't manage to get the Transform on Black Friday. If I do, I'd be willing to guinea pig it.
10 days and no answer? Does anyone at least know of a board that is doing custom roms/root/etc on the Optimus S/T?

andriodcentral forums has a section for the optimus s with root custom recovery and a rom
Thanks! I'll go check it out
optimus s i not like the optimus one p500 its a different device, optimus T is the exact same as optimus one p500.
no optimus s is just different on the outside.. it is nothing but the optimus one in reality
Optimus T & One are the same, S is similar but won't accept the same flashes, etc, because since it's a cdma phone it has the msm 7627 where the T & One have the msm 7227. Happy now?

I just ordered two optimus T phones, can I use all of the roms and roots and stuff on this site for the optimus one, on these optimus T phones?
Thanks!

I thing that you can. OT seems to be T-mobile customization only of P500.

I searched around the forum and I haven't found a set in stone explanation for this sort of thing... Are the custom ROMs and kernels made for the Optimus One compatible with the Optimus T?
I have a stock 2.2 rom on an LG Optimus T, and I really want to delve into custom recovery, custom roms, and so forth... but I'm afraid of bricking my phone due to compatibility.
Any information regarding the differences between them would be great help, and I'd really appreciate if anyone could point me in the direction of an Optimus T thunderg recovery or a thread of Optimus T related customizations.
I'm really looking forward to this forum, it seems like everyone really knows their stuff, thanks in advance
As far as I can tell, they are exactly the same phone except due to the region and network they are released on, they have a different codes. (Such as O1 is p500, and OT is P509) I have tried to use custom recovery from Optimus T, and I can confirm that they work perfectly fine, whereas when I tried Optimus S, it failed several times. Roms are interchangably, since I have seen the same ROMs available for both phones.
I'm own the Optimus T phone and it runs the devoid rom for the p500. I have had no issues, but then again, I didn't install any of the optional modules. The recovery I'm using came from another site.
Optimus T (p509) is functionally identical to the Optimus One (p500). All roms, recovery, themes, etc meant for the Optimus One will work perfectly on the Optimus T. I have an OT and running void rom for weeks with no problems.
Optimus S isn't compatible with these roms because it uses cdma instead of gsm.
Also, welcome to the forums!
Something's different between the two, because 500 users report reduced battery life with Joseph Mother's 509 roms, and vice versa with 500 roms on a 509. All software will work between the two, however.
Will test OT roms to see battery life for myself. I've always wanted to try out ThundeROM

Could it be the difference in the base Froyo version used by each device?
See links:
pdadb.net/index.php?m=specs&id=2655&c=lg_p509_optimus_t
pdadb.net/index.php?m=specs&id=2485&c=lg_p500_optimus_one
Either that, or bloatware on the stock ROM could be causing the comparison skew?
W-CDMA 1700 band support on P500 via baseband flash ?
Optimus T P509 (T-Mobile USA) supports W-CDMA 1700 (aka UMTS band IV aka AWS-1)
Is it possible to enable this band on other models such as P500 or P500h ?
What are the differences between P500 P500h P509 in:
- hardware
- nvram settings
- baseband image
- ... ?
Hey there guys I'm new to the forums but I've been using android since the G1 launched. I just got the LG optimus C and I know it's nothing powerful but it does the job and runs netflix pretty well now. Well I have it rooted now with Gingerbreak and was wondering if anyone has gotten a custom rom running on it yet?
I managed to turn swype off (big fingers dont mix with swype on this screen) and I changed the home screen, disabling the LG one. But I would really love
to get CM running on it like devs have managed to get running on the V and other optimus devices.
I apologize if this is in the incorrect area, I knew the phones were similar on a hardware level so it was the closest I knew.
Anyone had any success or suggestions?
selfless bump
Have you found a recovery program that supports it? I don't see it listed at http://androidforums.com/getitnowmarketing/330813-all-one-recovery-thread.html
Someone claims to have gotten one going.I forget the name but it begins with an X. I know the custom optimus roms just need to be tweaked slightly for this device. Unfortunately I suck at custom roms, better at psp coding. If anyone wants to port it i'd be so grateful i'd donate.

Hi,
I bought my first Android phone over year and a half ago for dirt cheap and it was the ZTE Blade. It had a great community and I liked trying different custom roms.
Now I feel it's time to upgrade my phone but I'm not willing to spend money on a high-end phone, so I was wondering if you would recommend the L9. I read the Info about the L9 variants and their differences and compared it to the specs on a local store's website and as far as I can tell it's either P760 or P765.
After looking at the forums it looks like there are more roms for P760, is that right? Should I look for that rather than P765?
Thanks.

If you are not in the U.S.A. or Canada it will "not" be the P769. This will be good as us P769 users do not have as much development as the P760/P765 users.
The P760 ROMs will work on the P765 just fine. I believe the only difference between them is one has NFC and the other does not.
I recommend the L9 if you want an affordable good quality device. The performance is not bad either. If you want more custom ROMs get another device as development has been slow.
Welcome to the L9 forum.
Thank you for your reply!
I think I will be getting the L9. Is it easy to brick this phone? Also, what is the difference between "android development" and "original android development" forums?

Easy to soft-brick. Almost Impossible to hard-brick.
Soft-brick is easily recoverable by flashing the KDZ file which is the complete ROM from LG.
Hard-brick requires sending to manufacturer. So far nobody has done this.
The new naming scheme for the forums are confusing to me also. "Android Development" is where we hack the original ROMs. "Original Android Development" Is where we make custom ROMs. At least that is how I understand it.

To a certain point it's ok... You just don't want to modify something that will trigger a security error.
What are you wanting to do, as far as mod?
Have you seen the CM9 for locked bootloader?
It's a step towards building a ROM for locked bootloader.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2684856
He is aware of the limitations of the bootloader guys, he's referring to building a ROM that doesn't conflict with the 2nd-init and such, like the locked CM9 we have from Pollos. He's probably interested in learning how to port CM10/11, I myself wouldn't mind taking a look at that information either.
Not exactly but that gives us an Idea to work towards...since I don't run Ubuntu it will be difficult but the Cyano website does give some info on how to build a "build" for a certain phone....but how to undo lg security error for it is another problem

No sure what your setup is or if your actually running or dual booting a Ubuntu machine but you might want to check out BuildUntu.. It's a preconfigured VM system all ready to build and compile.

Well I'm not sure if by "Guys" you are referring to me, But if you read My post... You are basically only reiterating what I have already posted. Although we do appreciate you speaking for the OP on his behalf.
Obviously anyone here with knowledge of the L9 devices are completely aware of the limitations of the locked and encrypted bootloader. It's perfectly clear that he is wanting to build a ROM that doesn't conflict with the 2nd-init, what would the point be otherwise. This is why I mentioned the CM9 for locked and unlocked bootloaders, is a good reference and starting point in attempting to building other ROMs for L9's with locked bootloaders.
It's also no good to assume whether or not someone is familiar with or aware of crucial information... This will undoubtedly get a fellow member into trouble or brick their device.
Another thing that might be worth looking into is trying to intercept the stock kernel's call for the pre-hardware file/chargemon and then have it instead call on the custom rom. optimumpro has already said and is willing to help with this.... Although he needs a CM10 ROM, not 10.1 or higher to begin working on it. If we could build one or maybe use the CM9 to figure out how to achieve this, it maybe worth looking into.
Well I'm dual booting BUT its kinda slow...and WiFi doesn't show up in 13.10 might have to boot back up to win7 and uninstall ubun

G2 is not an old device. Optimus G is an old device. Why would they say, that they got an info about UI update... Makes no sense. Anyway we have to sit and wait.
I know that Sony always updates most of their devices to a new UI introduced with a new device, so it makes sense for LG to do that to.

Yep, maybe with new version. If LG decide that we will skip, 4.4.3/4.4.4 then we jump to L right away. But UI update can come with a simple update also, without version upgrade, anyway... We must wait.
maybe the G2 users will get the G3 UI for Android L that would be good better as 4.4.4 but i aint sure about it
