Jelly Bean on LG Optimus One P500 with CyanogenMod 10 install guide

The LG Optimus One is not really a device you expect to get Jelly Bean since it is a really old device but nonetheless it is here. It is not an official release or anything but it is CyanogenMod 10 and usually most builds work well. CyanogenMod 10 is based on jelly bean and it will give you more than what a stock jelly bean firmware can. There are some buys because the ROM is still in development, if you can live with those then this is something you should try flashing in your phone.This ROM also has features like bravia engine, lag free UI, more performance and tweaks etc.
