QUOTE(CyberKewl @ Dec 17 2011, 11:40 PM) actually moving to SD would move MOST of the app to SD while the core parts of the app remains in internal. some data like cache would remain internal unless the app is designed to make use of the SD for cache purposes - for instance the default browser uses internal memory for browser cache while dolphin browser hd has an option to allow you to use SD card for caching purposes. in any case, dont install too many apps on a phone with lower internal memory and you will survive. if you want to move some apps that CANT be moved to SD card, you can try this method that i've written for the nexus one which should theoretically work on any handset(no root required): http://www.androidsupernova.com/2011/06/ho...ng-for-all.htmlok thanx  |

Im just on Froyo. 2.2.2 Froyo to be exact. Thanks! In response to numerous requests received, LG has tried to speed up as much as possible the release of Gingerbread for Optimum BLACK declaring its readiness to start this week. We regret, but there are problems with imperative that forced us to delay the release of Gingerbread for Optimus in BLACK. LG's goal is indeed to ensure the highest quality releases on sw. We are confident to release the update in the coming weeks. We apologize for the inconvenience and we thank all users of Optimus Black for your confidence. |

Is it possible to MAKE your own update? Like if a new update come up for android. And your phone manufacturer don't wanna update for your phone. Can you make your own android update for your phone model?
