Friends, I have been using Custom rom Void Forever + Fracno Kernel + Data2sd on My LG P500 until i did some hoshiyari on the mobile and hence needed to flashed original rom back into it..

Now the query is, when I got custom rom I did some partition (around 256MB or 512MB) for app installation and now I want the whole space of Memory card.. What should I do to get so?? Should I simply format it to get toal 4GB space or any other method??

^^Go to recovery and search for any option like delete secondary partition. Delete the 2ndary partition and then format the sd card.

Or download MiniTool Partition Wizard on windows PC. Mount your SD card. It will show you different partitions. Merge them and format it.

I keep getting Browser Messages from BSNL in my Inbox. I called CC & they said best way is to disable Service Messages in the phone itself.

I can find the option in Nokia Symbian phones but not in my Defy+. Any idea where the option is ?

I would suggest the "battery indicator". It sits in your top status bar and does not clutter your screen.

Mr.J · Dec 21, 2011

Go for 'Battery Dr Saver'.

When you start this app while charging, it notifies you.

Here's screenshot of it:

Which is the best travel app for android ? Something which lets us organize trips and does more (don't know what more but). I have trip it, worldmate, kayak installed and all of these give the facility of creating an itenary only by sending them our ticket receipts.

Is there any other app anyone knows of ?

Guys did anyone tried this method..?
Improve your battery life on 3G, this may help you along with your signal. - Android Help

I tried and 'm getting nice improvement in battery life and whenever 3G connection is available i get nice speeds and when signal is weak switches to EDGE without draining battery..!

Its very efficient than WCDMA prefered/GSM option..

Cheers..!

I'd like to know if there is any reminder/alarm app, where we can set an alarm/reminder to repeat every 45 min... i tried astrid and somehow wasn't able to configure it to do that... any suggestions?

Even I was looking for a reminder application which would flash on the screen about the reminder. Astrid looks to be the best among what I have tried so far, but still I would prefer some kind of app which would flash on the complete screen rather than only flashing on top.

Friends, I am using LG optimus one P500. Was earlier on Custom rom Void Forever+ Franco Kernel + Data2SD

Recently shifted back to stock 2.3 rom and now planning to go back to Custom ROMs, they are sweetest thing to use

Can anyone guide which is the best custom ROM option at present for P500, or which combo should I go for like the one I earlier had.

Void forever was really great, but I read on XDA that its developer has stopped working on it, so no advancement could come

Link to step by step guides for any new kind of tweaks with it will be treat

Planning to go for this - [ROM][23DEC] CyanogenMod 7.2.0-RC0-Thunderg-A4 [CM7STOCK] - xda-developers with Goldenleaf Kernel

One N00b query. what is the best way to back up my apps and data associated with them so that I can restore it after flashing rom (plus card partition) and dont need to reinstall everything from market

Also, what things are backed up when we make a backup from going to recovery mode. Does it backs up apps only or the whole ROM

I use MyBackup Pro for backup / restoration of apps and data everytime I flash a new ROM on my HTC Desire. You could try it.

A backup made from recovery mode, backs up everything. The ROM, your apps, their data, settings everything.

Yes, a nandroid backup from recovery is the best way to backup everything, sys apps, user apps, data, etc.

Any luck finding an app? I searched a lot... didn't find anything... very weird!
