heres the best kept secret on learning about the android project.... its called the SEARCH FUNCTION. use it. use it flagrantly and without hesitation.
it is a newbi's best friend as well
You most likely won't get an answer here bro. First thing to do is what phone do you have? Go to androidspin.com or the unlockr to see video on how to root. Its pretty easy just follow instr. To the T. After you have root go to the most frequently asked section or the "read this before you start a thread" section and you can find all your answers there. Good luck. We were all noobs once

"its called I asked for opinions not facts". I don't want just specs and features listed. I want to know what people think is the most stable and reliable because in the end we are the ones using it. I appreciate the response anyway.
I think people are forgetting what forums are for. To discuss. If u don't wanna talk about the topic don't post move on im sure u have better things to do. I believe there are more people like me who want to get into this android development but are scared to ask questions because they are shot down by know-it-alls. Feel free to post here I have plenty of questions and I know on xda u guys got plenty of answers.

the thing is there are numerous posts about the same thing and they take up space. if you look around before asking a question, youll usually find your answer on a bunch of other posts.
so as you can see, there are numerous previous conversations about the same thing, it gets redundant. and "whats the best.." is a horrible question because they are open to user opinion. you actually have to either try them all or actually read the specs
Sorry but I'm not too familiar with wm 6.5. Android was however ported to the hd2 which runs 6.5 with cyanogen mod and I hear it runs virtually flawless. I would do a search for tilt 2 and I'm sure you will find what you're looking for.

You should find what you're looking for on you tube. Or google android ported to tilt 2. Was just there and you should find it and decide which is best for you. Good luck and great decision to go android.

Also please don't take offense. I did the same thing and was also told all my answers are here if I searched around. Again good luck and enjoy android

Just go to the first post at the top of this forum [CAB] GSM&CDMA Project Android Port and Startup Utility [10/04] BATT UPDATES! and install the cab file that you will find in there. Install it to your "SD Card"
Its not perfect but it works well.
Give it a go, dont like it, uninstall it, simple.
Yeah, what you are looking for is on the first post of this forum.
Its not a fully working ROM, but boots from the SD card (Windows Mobile stays on the phone). Some things don't work (Bluetooth, camera, some other things), but lots of things do.
gilnino: no offense intended, and I know you are trying to be helpful. But you're confusing the issue by telling the OP to look elsewhere, telling him to root, comparing to the HD2, etc. All the answers are here (first post top of this forum), there is no such thing as root in Windows Mobile, and porting to the TP2 has been much more problematic (from what I understand - I'm not a developer) than on the HD2 due to the TP2's CPU and other factors.
So, i'm pretty new here. i figured that this would be the best place to find stuff out about my phone, as i'm really into hacking my devices. however, thought this site has sections for almost every device, the LG Vortex is not a device i can find almost anywhere on this site. Is there a subforum i'm completely missing, or something i don't know? Or do i just have to ask for the section to be created?
Thanks for helping a noob out.

Rooted LG Vortex, 2.2.2
um, hello?
If I'm not mistaken, the LG Vortex is a variant of the LG Optimus One released under a different name for Verizon.
so then, its would be ok to discuss it in the optimums one forum(s)?
Bump?

Google your phone. See if it has any other names. Look for those on here.

I know, and i have. I am now fairly certain the Vortex and the Optimums One are the same, however, I would like proof from someone a little more qualified than me. I just don't want to brick this thing. I can't replace it, and I depend on it for day-to-day life.

Haven't seen anything about the Vortex there. Its on of the reasons I'm hesitant.
Hello!
Like the title says I want to know if its possible to add a CLIQXT forum to XDA, now that the XT has a official build of CyanogenMod, I thought it could be a good time to create the forum, we wish to enter here because of the big amount of users, since this is a well known website maybe our works (ROMs) could be downloaded more, thanked more, etc.. besides the fact that we could learn more!
FYI: Below is the link to the Zeppelin (CLIQXT) Nightly's in Team Douche's website

Thank you!
*bump* Hello..
Then why not a Motorola Devour forum too?

Yes, the CLIQXT is a motoblur phone.
Thank you all at xda, You know that age old question what am I going to do with my life? Well mine got answered. I allways wanted to go to school for something with computers, i love how it works and I pick up on it very fast. Was thinking computer eng. but not anymore software eng. Thanks to playing with these roms and now I just want to make them myself. So as a first post I had to say thanks.
I want to join thanks. My knowledge of English is limited. but thanks to you, I have successfully mastered the rum and firmware. understandable and clear descriptions and instructions for the beginner.
in Russian forums (4pda.ru and et.setera.. ) all make a mess and difficult.
Online xda, with my poor knowledge of the language, I quickly figured out
I want to thanks to alll ! Great Job XDA ! Cheers

I also would like to extend my gratitude to these forums..
I have been using opensource for ten years so getting answers on google and forums is a must sometimes.
I am very new to android and smartphones so naturally I had 1.5 million questions as I rooted, installed a custom rom, and installed my other high end useful apps. And I have yet to have to open a forum thread with a question.
Thank you
Ty CDs thanx to you all for helping root my nook my LG thrill and my HTC vivid

Thank you all XDA... The best android support... My SGS says thanks
I can't think of any other way to ask the question so forgive me for that convoluted topic, but I'm honestly curious. I just got a G2 yesterday, spent hours getting it figured out, read a few hundred posts and dozens of threads, finally got CloudyG3 running great on it and now I figured I'd pose the question.
Because the Nexus 5 preview of Android 5.0 has been out for a while, and there are quite a few ROMs based on that, and because the LG G2 and the Nexus 5 share basically the same hardware across the board, I'm really wondering why there doesn't seem to be any interest whatosever (or from what I can tell) in potentially porting that over to the LG G2? Is this device really that far out of bounds at this point in time - I say that because I know the "crowds" flock to the most popular devices for ROM development by nature, and that's fine.
I'm not knocking the amazing work of each and every dev here at XDA Developers - it is after all a forum for them, not casual users like myself, so I'm happy to be able to partake of the products and ROMs they create for so many of us to actually put to use.
It just seems a bit odd to me I suppose that the G2 and the N5 are basically the same devices when you really dig into the hardware specs (with some differences, obviously, but they share far more in common than they don't). I mean, I remember when the Nexus 4 and the Optimus G came out and there was a ton of stuff you could do between them since again they were basically the same devices in different packaging much like the N5 and the G2 happen to be also.
Is there something I'm missing here, something that flat out makes porting over any version of that Nexus 5 Android 5.0 preview code to the G2 impossible? Or is it just not worth the time for whoever to do it - I'm not a dev at all, don't have nearly the talent for this kind of stuff that so many others do so, I'm a dead end myself.
This CloudyG3 port of the G3 stock ROM is damned nice, it really is, it's like a totally different device in many respects with enhanced features the G2 has always been capable of anyway (the 4K video recording, etc) and this ROM brings that out.
I'm just wondering now what LG has in mind for their initial G2 Android 5.0 release after the first of the year.
Anyway, just thought I'd toss the question out there as I can't find a single thing related to this here or at the LG G2 subforum either. If it's absolutely not possible, I can comprehend that - it's just that the hardware is so similar I have to wonder why nobody has put forth any effort at all, I guess.
Comments and discussion are always welcome...
We don't need or want to port the preview lollipop version from the nexus. The g2 is going to have have an update to lollipop 5.0 either Jan or Feb. The lg g3 will be getting 5.0 before us so a dev may port that rom before our official update. Also cm12 should be coming out this month so we will have a 5.0 lollipop very soon. Hope that answers your question

It's a start I suppose, just seemed weird that the preview code has been available for quite some time and apparently nobody considered it worthy of a porting attempt.
And yes, I realize that when Lollipop drops for the G3 someone (Cloudyfa, hopefully, because of his excellent CloudyG3 for the G2) will most likely do their best to port it over fast, probably before we even see the official G2 build appear which will be pretty cool.
Fun times ahead...
I also think it is due to it being just a preview. No developers feel it is solid enough to work with.
I also agree that it is strange that the g2 and nexus 5 are almost completely alike except camera of course. But no real change of Roms.
Look into the non sprint development. And you will find many support the ls980. You just have to look hard. Being that every carrier and international worldwide have this phone.
