[ROM][PORT] Devoid.franco port for e720

please follow install instructions here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1049518

i cant test because i dont have my wifes e720 for use for a few days.

testers please give me feedback. this port includes overclocked kernel, lagfix, multitouch mod, hardware acceleration enabled, tons of goodies!

this is not branded and should work on any e720 so long as your apn settings are correct for your carrier.

so without furthur a due

Not work for me... I have a total brik...I've used kdz now and it start but the touch is not centered and i cant use it....:( how i can do? pls help me!!!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] gglong1234:
lestat2212, i have the same problem too.......

i have solved this by using LGMobile Support Tool.....
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ptesmoke:
Did u create the proper ext partition on your sd card?? If not it won't boot
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] lestat2212:
I cant update with lg mobile... It says that i have already the last version...how i can do...?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] gglong1234:
how about reset factory settings on LGMobile Support Tool?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] lestat2212:
Can u tell me how u do that..it says that i have already the last software...:(
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] lestat2212:
I cant find this option... where is it?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] gglong1234:
what i have done is update to the latest version , i guess this wont work on your

situation...... :( sorry , so ,thats why im asking you try to reset the factory settings..
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] lestat2212:
dont work...:(
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ptesmoke:
Lestat what and how exactly did you flash. These roms were for use with drellisdees custom recovery, and the devoid port requires an ext partition as mentioned. It shouldn't have bricked anything.. did u try to flash it with kdz??? Please explain what you did.

No matter what u bugger up kdz should always be able to reflash your stock image. If the recovery still works just restore your nand backup..
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] carajo12:
HI,

Sorry my english is very bad :(

I have a brick problem.

Android don't start in my phone.....

And recovery don't run correctly, i can't select options (botoun don't works :S)

can you help me? please :D

Regards.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] lestat2212:
I have the same problem buttons are dead and now the emergency mode don't start... the cell is totally dead..
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ptesmoke:
Ok no one is telling me what they did, makes it hard for me to fix any of your problems.

I'm assuming you can get into drellisdees recovery but ur buttons aren't working. Ok, well if it gets that far u have usb connection, either adb the recovery install again, or flash back to your stock rom with kdz. Guys....so long as your phone turns on kdz will see it. Even if u have a black screen. Been there done that.

I'm sorry I cannot test myself but I'm away from home with work and no one has an e720, I'm trying to make a rom for you on what little spare time I have.

That said I REALLY need to know what you guys are doing to cause your semi-bricks. Else I can't help you.

This devoid rom was based on a stock e720 image, I can't see it causing a brick. Tho I clearly stated that this rom needs an ext partition as stated in the post I referred to for install instructions.

Please read folks, and please provide me with more than..."I load rom and now brick. What do I do??"

That gives me absolutely NOTHING to work with guys...

Hope you understand where I am coming from.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ptesmoke:
It isn't dead if it turns on.

Emergency mode doesn't exist if you still have custom recovery. As stated above if you can get to recovery you for sure have a usb connection. Please read my previous post.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] gglong1234:
on the preparations before flash e720_devoid_port Rom, i got an error when wipe sd-ext partition........it says: "E:can't" mount /dev/block

/mmcblk0p2 (No such device) Error mounting /sd-ext/!"

i have already created ext2 partition (swap:0 , ext:512MB) with drellisdees custom

recovery "partition SD" function before wipe , after that, i also try several times with

format and create the ext2 partition ..i even try another sdcard....but..still show the

same error message as above.... :(

:eek: i also running " Paragon Partition Manager " on PC to check my sdcard's partition ...it displayed two primary partitions....first is fat32,

second ext2... really don't know what's going on....
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ptesmoke:
Ok looks like a recovery issue with mmcblk02. I will look into porting another tasty rom that doesn't need an ext2
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ptesmoke:
But that first cleaned test rom works? Just missing Chinese Lang?

For those of you with semi bricks have u tried flashing stock with recovery? Or kdz?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] gglong1234:
yes,the first test rom works great and just no Chinese language in select list when running first-time-use setting.

i didn't run "Quadrant Standard" to check the performance score when in the first test rom coz i suddenly see your second release rom POST on here, so i decided to flash it then ext2 partition issue happened(connect to my previous post)...

**********************************************************************

there is another issue happened also,when i try to do a nand restore(i made a nand backup before flash first-test-rom) within drellisdees custom recovery but it shows : "Error: run'nandroid-mobile.shrestore'via adb!" , i still didn't know how to solve this issue after "Google it"... then i just use kdz to flash back official rom....
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] gglong1234:
to lestat2212 and carajo12 :

just like ptesmoke said,please have a try with kdz to flash back to official rom, try

do not flash back to the latest version rom

(for example: the latest version is 10c then try to flash back version 10b or 10a with kdz)

then use LGMobile Support Tool to update to latest official rom, this is how i solved the

touch screen issue(touch function is upside down )......
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] jackpot20:
i dont wanna be rude guys but who cares if it have chinese language or not!!

more locale can do that so no worried.we need a nice rom.

BTW is this rom which is working overclocked or will the next rom be??

thanks
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] 0140454:
u're right...

but if it have chinese language...it will be more kind :D

it is official kernel, can't overclock
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ptesmoke:
Thanks gglong for the help here, been working 9 straight days now plus all this weekend and next, so I barely have time to work on my roms. The devoid one was a shot in the dark, I didn't know the ext was buggered in the recovery, or it may be a bad reference in the devoid rom. In which case thank you for furthur explaining that kdz is the tool to use if for some reason u can't get recovery to flash. Just keep a copy of your stock rom on hand just in case. 10c is latest but is unrootable. Flash 10b. Root, then reinstall recovery.

I have a p500 rom ported with lag fix, oc, etc. But need to get a chance to upload for you. Also got most of the bell junk cleaned out as well.

Ill report back soon, and ill take down the link for devoid port as well once I can get more than 5mins!

Cheers and stay tuned....this next rom should be candy...
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ptesmoke:
ok, another port. this one doesnt require an ext partition so everything should work fine.

http://www.multiupload.com/9TKFJ6SBF3

this is a p500 nessy#fenice port with my working bell testrom.

please leave feedback.

install instructions:

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] gglong1234:
really thank you for your work ,ptesmoke :)

after flash the e720_chic_p500_port rom.......unfortunately

that e720 get stuck on LG logo(can not process to the Android logo), i tried to wait

for 20 minutes and still on stuck status,so reboot into custom recovery again but the

touch screen function does not work(no response when touch) ,exactly the same

situations when flash the second released rom. anyway,i just use kdz tool to recovery

again. Please have a look if you r not busy, thank you !!

***********************************************************************

my installation steps:

1.nand backup

2.wipe all user data-->wipe data-->wipe cache

3.flash rom

4.reboot
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ptesmoke:
Hmmmm sheesh I hoped this one would work. Well at least it almost boots. I'm gonna have to tear this rom apart once I get some spare time. The touch screen issue seems to be driver related..

Stay tuned..
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] 0140454:
i wil try it on the weekend.

i have a question

is it because of kernel? different module has different drivers?

Sorry for my bad english.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] drellisdee:
Can anyone confirm this 2.6.32.39 kernel fixes the lag on touchscreen? I updated the melfas driver.

signed_alessi_oc_lagfix_gnm.zip

pass is gnmbeta

Please report feedback.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Andreoid:
I'm flashing now... Seems to works...

Edit 1

If i overclock my smartphone, the touchscreen can't works... I press both the touchscreen and both the soft touch key (home menù back and search) but doesn't works... I think that's a bug...

Edit 2

If i don't overclock, the lagfix works great! drellisdee you are my love <3 xD
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] drellisdee:
overclocking to too high a frequency can freeze your device are you sure thats not it?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Andreoid:
729 mhz... The overclock kernel isn't very stable... All users crash at 729 mhz when the cpu reaches the 100%...
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] drellisdee:
not sure whats causing that same OC code i use for all lg msm7x27 devices. Is the touchscreen lag fixed now at regular freqs?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] jackpot20:
can we use this for the official rom which we have on our phone?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] drellisdee:
sure can. Any any customs based on froyo as well
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Andreoid:
Yes :) Works great ^^

PS.

It's possible that i can't overclock over 729 mhz?? (Sometimes my smartphone also crash with 729 mhz cpu... :S) The reason can be the "instable" kernel? O it's just my processor that can't keep this frequence?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Andreoid:
My Rom with Overclock Lagfix Deodex Zipalign and more...

Tested works 100%! Flash this from the recovery,and enjoy ;)

Thanks to drellisdee for the Recovery and for the Kernel ;)

Now lacking only the "multitouch fix" and this phone will be better than all ;D

i flashed e720_chic_p500_port.zip
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] jackpot20:
that is not working ! u didnt read the posts? anyway just flash this one which ANDREOID said in post 71...

Hi everything works! Thank you.

But WIFI setting not working. Can you check that out?

Thank you again
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] jackpot20:
i dont know about that .lets wait ADREOID and answer for this bec i didnt even flashed the rom .i cant root my gf´s device bec it has 2.2.1 in and i think thats the problem .anyway i will downgrade now and see .
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Peter0014:
You can root now 2.2.1 with GingerBreak. Worked for me :)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] hohosanta:
help needed

Hi It is working fine, but i can't turn on the WI-FI after flash.

It's saying error for wi-fi.

Can you check the wi-fi?

Thank you~
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] jackpot20:
u´re kidding me right :p. i just downgraded my phone :)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Andreoid:
Also to ripa1993 the wi-fi doesn't work... Works for me, and for my girlfriends' smartphone (lg Chic)... Try to flash it again, now i check the kernel, in hope to find an error...
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ptesmoke:
Anderoid my friend,

Im gonna leave the rom building to you sir. I honestly dont have enough spare time or expertise to get my roms to work at all. As well i dont usually have any access to my wifes chic as our schedules just wont allow for me mucking with it for a few hours.

I am more than willing to help if you want, instead of trying to port a crazy rom i think building off the stock 2.2.1, root it, add lag fixes and oc would be a good basic rom. I think i went overboard by starting way too big.

Anyways sorry my efforts werent what i invisioned everyone...
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] jackpot20:
mine is working also !
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] hohosanta:
I guess maybe its just me ... I flashed it again but still i got error. Thank you for your work anyway.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] jackpot20:
how do we flash this ? the same way? we must have just this in the root of sdcard now? if yes ill flash it in an easier way then .ill tell u how if u answer me that i must flash just this image..

EDIT: ah its ok forget it i see we must do it the same way.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] asianlty:
OMG!!!!!!drellisdee!!!!!! i love you!!!! you are freaking awesome!!!!your new2.6.32.39 kernel DID fixes the lag on touchscreen!!! that freaking touchscreen bug is pissing me off, thank you very much for fixing it!!! now my chic is perfect =)

Oh guys do you guys have the same problem as me???

My optimus chic shut down in the middle of the game like (Homerun Battle 3D, Slice it and some other Com2US games). i don't know if it is the game's problem or my chic's problem. sometimes i can play 20mins, sometimes it shut down. does anyone have the same problem? or its just me? BTW Backbreaker is running perfect now after i flashed the Lagfix kernel. thank you drellisdee!

It is possible to get US T-Mobile 3g enabled custom rom ?

Thank you.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ptesmoke:
drellisdee, where can i find a link for your new kernel bro?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ptesmoke:
Ok anderoid i tried your rom, nice work but wifi is broken for NAM users as its based on 10A which is 2.2 and a different wifi module.

I am running 10D 2.2.1 rooted with gingerbreak. Big step up from 2.2. I suggest we build a custom rom off it with lagfixes etc.

Also can u release flashable zips for the lagfix,screenfix, new kernel??

Thanks. If i ever get time ill make a 2.2.1 rom but sadly i have no time usually
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] jackpot20:
For those who have wifi issue!!!!

so guys when your wifi doesnt turn on after installing a rom U MUST FLASH drellisdee´s OC KERNEL AND THAT WILL FIX IT.i had the same problem right now.but solved :)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ptesmoke:
Where did u find his new kernel?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] jackpot20:
http://www.mediafire.com/?f5sqfsnv3vs7p9x

password is : keepout

EDIT: if u meant newest kernel then sorry i dont know.

EDIT2: his kernel in the first page(or just push this in my post,it takes u to the kernel directly) fixes the wifi.just install any rom and it doesnt matter if the rom has the kernel of drellisdee,again u must flash his kernel!

EDIT 3: (the new kernel) http://www.mediafire.com/?dbkqh9c6mijli9g

password: gnmbeta
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] drellisdee:
The cause of this issue is andreoid must have used my kernel in his rom but forgot my kernel modules and is using the mismatched stock wireless.ko. Newer kernel is a page or two back labled 2.6.32.39 lagfix.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] hohosanta:
I have a question

Can you sync with google account ? I can't sync with google account.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] jackpot20:

Anybody can help me ?

Thank you.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bobzero:
What's the cheapest way to unlock the e720?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] jackpot20:
listen so if u dont wanna lose data then flash the rom once again and then flash the new kernel of drellisdee.if u dont have data/app in ur phone or if u dont care or if u made any back up of them ,then wipe all data and cache and reinstall the rom and then the new kernel of drellisdee.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] hohosanta:
I did all the step.

1. wipe all data and cache

2. reinstall the rom

3. install the new kernel

(the new kernel) http://www.mediafire.com/?dbkqh9c6mijli9g

password: gnmbeta

4. still i can not log in google account...

5. Yes i can use wifi now... thou not login google account

I have other question too.

Is it posibble to change 3G band ? I want T-Mobile US 3g if it possible.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] jackpot20:
i dont know then if u type -----@gmail.com then try once -----@googlemail.com maybe it works.u want to use T-Mobile US 3G with another sim card?i dont know .
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ptesmoke:
Your gmail sign in error is because your date and time isnt set. Set it to automatic from carrier. Then retry adding a google account.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] hohosanta:
Thank you. IT is now working :)

That recovery version is outdated you should be using the new 2.2.1 one.

what u wanna say(its old)? i cant install the new one! is the code exactly the same as this one but just the name of the image change????
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] cyberunnamed:

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] cyberunnamed:
where's the new one?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] cyberunnamed:
or is there any apps we can flash zip folders from there? and is supporting LGE720
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] jackpot20:
4 or 5 pages before this.

no dont wipe data bec u are going to lose everything.apps,data,apns.unless u make a back up of everything.but recovery shouldnt ask u just that !!!! so read about other phones how it is first bec about lg e720 arent enough informations. u are newbie so learn more about android and recoveries and then try to do smth to your phone otherwise u will brick it and if u have a custom rom on it and u cant revert back then u cant get even a replacement. before u do anything .....NANDROID BACK UP FROM THE RECOVERY FIRST!!!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] cyberunnamed:
