Though this may be true, the OP1 has an official upgrade to Gingerbread. Though we can always get a custom Gingerbread for the SG3..

Hey guys, there's a question I would like to ask here.

There's been news of the Gingerbread v2.4 being released. So is it possible for the Optimus One to get this update? With it sharing the very same code name and all, just like the Eclair, from what I've heard.

Ah, as it turns out, the Android 2.4 Gingerbread seems to be a fake.

The prototype Sony Ericsson Arc had a 2.4 Gingerbread running on it at CES, but a website seems to have clarified that it's not true.

The so-called Android 2.4: http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/01/06/an...rbread-upgrade/

And the website that claims it's not true: http://www.unwiredview.com/2011/01/06/sony...ve-android-2-4/

I don't think the Huawei IDEOS X5 would be in the price range of the OP1. Specs-wise, definitely the Huawei.

Here's some pictures from the website itself, it is pretty much how the actual products looks like.

Scroll down to see the images.

I'm not sure whether I would root it or not once I got my hands on one of this beauty. Having superuser access is a pretty neat feeling..

This guy offers COD. I bought from him sent via Pos Ekspress though.

Holy moly, anyone else tried the touchscreen bug fix? Lag-free Raging Thunder 2?

Would a class 6 microSD be overkill?

I've been reading through this forum and something sparked my curiousity.

Say my O1 is v10c now, which is rootable via z4root. Once I got my superuser access, can I update it to v10e? Wouldn't wanna mess with custom ROMs for now.

z4root also enables us to unroot our phone, yes? As simple as a click?

As far as I know, Chic is pretty darn hard to find around here. I'm not sure if it's even released here.

Ah, that's a shame. Any major differences between the v10c and v10e?

Been reading bout the instructions to root, install a custom recovery image, flashing a custom ROM/kernel. 1 question: Let's say I've done all that with the 2gb supplied microSD. When I want to upgrade to a higher capacity microSD, I can just back up the 2gb microSD and put all the data inside the new microSD?

Alright... What if I done all those with a new microSD card, and I would like to change to a higher capacity microSD. I could just basically backup all the things in the other microSD and put it inside the higher capacity one, correct?

I did some reading, and apparently you could just copy all of the content of your old microSD and transfer everything to the new one. Though, I would find a software of some sort that would "clone" the old microSD's content to the fullest, just in case.

You would want to repartition the new microSD though, seeing that it's of a higher capacity. I'm no expert in this particular issue yet, so yeah..

I referred here: http://android.modaco.com/content/htc-desi...anging-microsd/

You could try the Handcent SMS application, it has been said to have a repeat notification. Found the info here: http://android.modaco.com/content/zte-blad...fication-sound/

There's virtually no disadvantage whatsoever.

Well... Other than voiding your warranty and the possibility of bricking your phone.

My gosh, this phone sells fast. Gonna be getting a red model of this phone, luckily there's another unit left.

Hopefully red wouldn't look so weird on a guy..

Hey guys, got a question.

Apparently the red LG O1 I got is already updated to 2.2.1, which means I can't root it using z4root. (boo)
I'm going to flash it back to a version that is able to be rooted soon, but my questions is...

What would happen to the apps and everything if i flash it to an older firmware? I don't wanna lose my Papago, Ndrive and all.

Starting to love it.

I'll be using this guide by :3mushy:3. http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...&#entry39552902

Hey justnits, I did some digging into the phone's internal memory and found the Ndrive's .apk file. PM me if you want it, I'll send it to you.

Um, guys, how do we know if we installed the USB driver properly?

I installed the LG PC Suite IV and connect my O1 to the computer (turned off "mass storage only"), and it is able to detect my phone for syncing and all. I didn't even install any sort of driver, so I'm pretty confused right now.
