OP1, 26 Jan 2011Is thr any way to remove pre installed app... bollywood ji... moreProcedure for uninstalling the unwanted applications /
Procedure for rooting your phone
If you have version V10b (the procedure mentioned in the link does not apply for software version V10c) then you can uninstall the unwanted applications using the procedure mentioned here
http://androidos.in/2010/12/how-to-root-lg-optimus-one-remove-unwanted-apps/#respond

If you have version V10c then you can go back to the version V10b by using the procedure here
http://lgoptimusonep500.blogspot.com/2011/01/how-to-flash-original-firmware-on-lg.html

I had V10c. I downgraded it to the version V10b by using above procedure.
Then rooted the phone using the procedure in the link at the top and uninstalled apps like Bollywoodji, Infant Vaccine, PNR Tracker, etc.

Please remember although i was successfull in doing the above procedure - there is always a risk in doing so. So please do the same at your own risk.

        The lack of flash is really annoying. There are also the following negative points:
        - when installing a lot of apps (let's say, about 15 or more), you really feel a lag in how the phone moves.
        - the battery isn't really very strong. If working w. your phone, you're lucky if you can use this phone more than 15 hrs
        - there are no default way to swich between different profiles (loud, meeting, vibration etc). Very very annoying to have to search the android market for such an application.
        - when searching a contact in the phonebook, if I push on the wrong contact, and then push the back button to come back, it doesn't come back at the same place, but at the beginning of the list. So you have to scroll down again and again
        - auto-rotate screen doesn't work immediately when you turn it
        - a keyboard would really have been a huge improvement.

                My first android! Loving it so far. Even if Samsung Gio comes out which i think will be its direct competitor, I would still choose O1 for its design, battery and build quality.

                          I wanted to buy a a smartphone since a long time. Was confused between Galaxy3 and Optimus One. And m happy i madea rt choice.M loving my Optimus One.
                          Really awesome phone. Performance is really gud. I would recoment it to every1. Best part is it comes with Android 2.2 and is upgradable to 2.3.
                          Trust me its the best phone in this budget.

                            It has greater performance. and works nice. no applicaations hangs nor i needed to restart since 15 days.
                            it has more ram 512mb compared to others lie galaxy, c5, c6.
                            Great os.
                            i have used following features

                            camera
                            adobe pdf reader
                            office
                            internet
                            gmail
                            google map
                            yahoo mail
                            yahoo messanger

                            all above apps are working very fine.
                            i prefere it over galaxy3, galaxy551, htc wildfire due to more ram and it has version 2.2 froyo.
