Why no Optimus S Sub Thread? - Optimus One, P500, V General

I just picked up an Optimus S to check out what all the fuss was about. This phone hauls balls! I oc'd it to 806 and installed thunderom 1.4 and it runs great.
I'm coming from a Hero which has tons of development etc...We should have a place for the Optimus S/T as it has been selling very well especially at only $50. Only development going on is over at Android Central...

Optimus S
I agree I would like to see an Optimus S subthread

Optimus S is subset Optimus One
S = Sprint
T = T mobile

Does that mean all the roms on here will work with the Optimus S? I know the Kernels are device specific.

+1 - My wife just got one

I was also curious about that.. I tried flashing the Megatron rom but was unresponsive to it so I just flashed the Thunder rom v1.5 instead.. Is each rom specific as well?

Megatron resulted with stuck at LG bootlogo, I suppose minor modifications to current ROMS for Optimus One are needed in order to flash them on our S.
+1 for the subforum, would love to have megatron/void!

S & T are not the same device...
I'm saddened and surprised by the lack of support for this on XDA...

+ for sub thread

Just flashed Prime, no go

there would have to be sub-forums for the s, t, vortex, m, and any other optimus one that comes out. i think just leaving it as we have it now will be best.

Can we get the moderator(s) to put a sticky in about this, as well as a guide for marking posts so we know looking at the post title which Optimus it is for?
Like:
[ROM][OPTIMUS-S]
[GUIDE][OPTIMUS-T]
etc.

Agreed - just came from a Hero myself... it's like night and day... and I would really like to NOT leave XDA and support whatever development I could here and get void/other ROMs working on the S.

[Q] Optimus One rom on Optimus V

Is it possible to port a rom for Optimus one to an Optimus V? If so what would have to be changed, I realize the kernel most likely will, but what else?
Theoretically, no.
People port ROMs from one phone to another all the time, so yes, you can. The Optimus V is a Optimus One phone anyways. There are some differences, but its not like a GSII to Optimus V, which I think can not be done.

My guess is no. Optimus V uses different signals then the rest of the Optimus One line, if it didn't we would have an Optimus S without the bloatware.

I wanted yo do the porting on my own as a learning experience so I was mainly wondering what the differences in the phones are and what all I'd have to change as far as kernel anxious build props etc

Is this forum for Tmobile Optimus T ??

Is this forum for Tmobile Optimus T ??
Doubt there is much differences in the phone but probobly enough I wouldn't recommend trying any of the roms, recoveries, etc on your T since this forum is for the One, P500 and V. There's not a Optimus T forum here but there is one here:
http://androidforums.com/lg-optimus-t/
and here:
http://forums.androidcentral.com/t-mobile-optimus-t/
As far as I know it's similar to p500.
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App
Roms for P500 will work on our P509 (trust me I've already done this to my Optimus T). Just make sure when you flash a rom it is OLD BASEBAND SUPPORTED.
Identical chipset. The difference in radio module and, maybe, baseband software. P500 supports 900 MHz UMTS, T - 1700 MHz.
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App
What happens when you update to the new baseband in the Optimus T?
I put the new baseband on my optimus t and everything works except 2g/3g I.guess it's some apn issue on cm7 nightly
It's all the same, Optimus T, S, V are all the same phone. Only difference, is some are CDMA and some are GSM. But the phone supports both so there isnt an issue.

Depends. For some it works 100%.
Some folks have a data/APN problem. For those of us with the problem here's the workaround using old baseband.

This might confuse some people.... So just to clarify
Optimus One and Optimus T are essentially the same phone.
Whatever ROM's & Kernels that work for Optimus One will work with Optimus T.
Optimus V & S CANNOT use Optimus One ROM's

[Q] ICS on Optimus One, P500 but not the Optimus V

I was kind of wondering why there is a ICS rom on the optimus one but not for the optimus v yet. Is it becasue the optimus one is older and the developers have had more experience with it? Or is the optimus one used more.

Its probably because O1 is used more and is more famous. That's why we have more devs for O1.......
However, the ROMs from O1 can be easily ported to V, as they are almost same. Request any dev from your forum to port ICS ROMs on your device...............That may help....
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App
So all I would have to do is just link a thread that has the ics rom and put it in the optimus v section and ask if they can port it to the optimus v and they will possibly do it?

There is, but the devs that are at work aren't public with it. They only released the early Alpha build.

New Phone, What do you suggest ?

Ive had the LG OpT for quite sometime now and I was thinking about purchasing a better phone from ebay ? Im with tmobile USA ? My question is, what phone would you choose and why ?
Here's what I want
dualcore or quadcore processor ie...anything over 1ghz
expandable memory, I believe our OpT only allows up to 16gb
good camera performance with flash, anything better than the current 5mp
most importantly, a strong developing section
Which t-mobile phone do you think will get an official ICS OTA update ?
If anyone's ever interested in purchasing my lg optimus t phone, inbox me sometime...Id be willing to sale it for like 75 bucks and send an 8gb sdcard with it (keep in mind, Im not sure how much longer the card will work considering I have partitioned the darn thing atleast 500 times)
Wait for the one s or one x to be realised if you have to get a new one now then get the sensation it is fast as hell dual core and has a huge development community fully fictional CM9. ROM, MIUI , sense 3.6 and sense 4.0 ROMs pretty much everything you want in a development thread is there waiting for you the galaxy s2 and amaze for tmobile development sucks ass that's if you are staying with tmobile otherwise the galaxy nexus or HTC one x is what I would suggest also the galaxy s3 will be realesed mid summer so there is that too

Yea it has everything dude I had the p500 for a long time and loved it but when I got this phone I was so happy it had everything that I loved about the p500 plus everything I wished the p500 could get like official support for cyanogen and miui plus multiple I've cream sandwich ROM and gingerbread ROM along with tons of support from users and the hardware it's amazing it has a dual core 1.5 snapdragon that can be safely over clocked to 1.7 done even 1.9 beautiful screen sleek design and if you look at any other TMobile phones none even come close when it comes to development

No it's under clocked to 1.2 stock is actually 1.5 they do it cause there is a xe version that says it's 1.5 but it's the same chip and chip set another plus is you can have beats audio..... @the last reply the reason I say no to the s2 is because it's with TMobile and the s2 for TMobile is different and the development is pure crap! Trust me I did a lot of research and sensation is the best phone on TMobile USA

Share your Nexus 4 conversion experience

Hi everyone !!! soon i'm going to buy an Optimus G and i read in the forums that since is the same hardware (virtually) as the nexus 4, it can be converted into a nexus 4, i've been reading quite a while about the subject and learning how things work on the Optimus G, but i can't find any users opinion about it and i can't find any videos of the conversion working so i created this thread so anyone who wants to share his expierence about the conversion or anyone who wants to share videos or photos of the conversion working it can be posted here
No need to do the conversion as we can run mako kernel natively now.

We are referring to all the 4.2 ROMs in the optimus g android dev section like root box, chaos, aokp, liquid smooth and cm10.1 in original dev section.

As everyone has said, during the last several weeks there's been an explosion of new ROMs. No need for n4 conversion!
it seems that i chose the right moment to buy an optimus g, so with this new modified kernels for the cellphone it would be one of the best devices to run an AOSP rom, thanks for the info
soo i bough the phone and the first thing i said when i held it was :HOLYY SH*T is gorgeous and its freaakin fast, now im going to install PA3.15 i will tell my experience with the rom later
I love it. Stock 4.2.2, rooted and deodexed with .33 modem. Everything I need works no problem.

How'd you come to the decision to convert and go to a n4 ROM? To each his own, but there's some pretty good Roms in the android Dev section and who knows what else to come.
And lolol what is with the random flexing..
Sent from my LG-E970 using xda app-developers app
i like the feeling that im using a 100% stock AOSP ROM and if the device is almost like 98% identical as the Nexus 4 why not do it, its a shame that the developers do not support the conversion no more, and with the flexing lol i was bored lol
It's not supported because the long-run effects aren't known, and there's nothing wrong with the AOSP/AOKP/CM/PA ROMs we have. But good luck with it!
I ditched 33 modem. Now using 24 & 27 interchangeably. They are holding Att reception much better. No issues thus far.

I enjoyed the conversion for a couple of weeks until it started getting screwy for me. Overheating, GPS stopped working, constant signal drop and bootlooped daily. Loving RootBox, though. All the advantages of AOKP, PA and CM in one.

I was tempted to convert for the longest time. Finally got the nerve the day we got AOSP, so no need in my book. I used rootbox for a while, but it started acting screwy on me recently. Switched to liquid smooth tonight and seems even better.
Turns out, I didn't need the AOKP/PA bloat, and this kernel feels even better than Houcha's did
