aaahhh, that's the trick. my rom manager said 3.0.2.7, but recovery was 3.0.2.4. gonna try after my battery charges. thanks for the tip.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] shadow666:
Worked great, did a full backup no problem...so is it worth it upgrading to the premium Rom Manager, I will anywas to support the devs
[T-Mobile LG G2x] vinnyjr:
Yes but I just checked my ext/sd and there is my back up with my custom label I put on it. stock-4/24/11

PS i have the paid version of rom manager if that matters.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dismaljester:
I did that to get out of a boot loop too. Was rather nice to have. It makes a quick easy fix for some problems.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ctso:
This is just a fakeflash, you'll still need CWM installed via nvflash on the G2x for this to work, unless I wasted time flashing a recovery and you can flash unsigned updates on the stock recovery, which I doubt.

edit: lawl, way to go LG! Fakeflash on stock recovery works fine.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] crazythunder:
that is the key combo. if you got a factory reset, that means custom recovery wasn't installed properly. did you have clockwork installed via nvflash first, as someone else pointed out?

has anyone flashed this through rom manager over the stock recovery? i had mine through nvflash first, the test2.img, then did the 3.0.2.7 through rom manager.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dnichols4:
I flashed mine through ROM Manager only and am able to get into recovery via "reboot into recovery".
[T-Mobile LG G2x] artismyrevolt:
So let me see if I have this right: you can flash cwm recovery from rom manager, and it will work (I've done that part). But all it does is flash cwm ON TOP OF the stock recovery. Therefore, any attempt to cold boot into recovery will take you to the stock recovery and wipe your phone, rather than take you to cwm. This would also mean that flashing anything without an official signature from tmobile or lg will fail. So, in order to have a FULLY FUNCTIONING clockwork recovery, you must use nvflash.

Is that all correct? Has any of this been confirmed?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] crazythunder:
try what the guy above you said...boot into recovery through rom manager. i did nvflash first, so maybe that makes a difference. maybe with 3.0.2.7 through rom manager, you can't do vol.down and power? but i can. maybe only because i did nvflash first, but that seems odd. i'm sure they're still working on things for final\stable release.

also, you need to hold vol. down and power for a good 10 seconds or so.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Nivek91:
I'm also wondering this as well. I'm not sure if I can just flash using clockwork or if I have to do nvflash first then cwm. Anyone?

[T-Mobile LG G2x] mapin0518:
Thanks, I would also like this clearly explained b/c if that's the case, it seems like we'd all want to just use the nvflash method (which I did and works fine).
[T-Mobile LG G2x] crazythunder:
it seems like 3.0.2.7 through rom manager is doing like artismyrevolt described. i'd avoid it unless you do nvflash first. i forsee alot of people factory resetting their phone by mistake.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] artismyrevolt:
Actually, if keeping the stock recovery under the fakeflashed cwm will allow the flashing of unsigned packages, I would just as well keep it. Nice to have that option when bootloops abound as other posters have stated.

Can't tell if it works though. Tried to flash a rather innocuous zip that would install mobiledefense.apk to /system/app/, but apparently the update script included in the zip is outdated since cwm switched to a gingerbread base.

Does anyone have a way to make a simple update zip? Maybe just to install an app. I will try flashing and see if it will allow unsigned updates. That would clear some stuff up about this whole thing.

EDIT: question for those that have factory reset their phones - did it kill your su privileges? Reinstall bloatware that you had removed? Or did it just wipe your personal data and apps?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tq745:
I don't know if this is a problem but I know that for gingerbread based roms you must use clockwork 3.x and for froyo you must use clockwork 2.x our else it won't work properly.

Sent from my G2x!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Prod1702:
Not sure what you are talking about but with the Nexus one you could use both of the recoveries. 2.x and 3.x. I was using 2.x because there was problems with 3.x. I had been using that since CM put out CM7 in nighty's.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dnichols4:
When vol + power initiates a factory reset, do you get any ability to stop it before it actually begins?

Would be helpful to know before testing if I can get into recovery installed via ROM Manager.

Thanks
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dannyHD2:
verified!

downloaded rom manager from market, chose g2x, bootedinto recovery perfect and doing back up now. thanks!!!!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] shadow666:
Just personal data SU remains.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] RueTheDay:
Ok, yesterday, I flashed CWM Test 2 via NVFlash.

Today, I downloaded ROM Manager and flashed CWM from there.

If I Reboot into Recovery from ROM Manager I get to CWM v3.0.2.7.

If I power off and the go into Recovery by doing Volume Down + Power, it shows as CWM 3.0.2.4.

How do I make the one I flashed from ROM Manager be permanent?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] krylon360:
For those trying to do a test flash, the is cwm 3, you need to use a zip that uses a edify updater-script.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] nodrogkam:
factory reset basically only wiped my info. it did not reinstall system apps i had uninstalled or SU.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] krylon360:
You can't. That's the joy of fakeflash. It makes it possible to return you phone back to stock for warrenty purpeses.

Sent from space
[T-Mobile LG G2x] RueTheDay:
So how do I get the latest (3.0.2.7) to flash via NVFlash then? Reason I ask is the Test2 image (3.0.2.4) has a bug where selecting reboot doesn't actually reboot the phone it just powers it off.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] artismyrevolt:
Since you seem to know more about this than me, do you know if a fakedflashed cwm will be able to update with unsigned zips?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] krylon360:
When recovery is compiled it builds a set of test keys which allow it to flash unsigned zips. ill create a test zip later today to test. If anything we'll just have to sign the zips like we used to before the sgs days.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] nonmindo:
I use volume down + power to get into recovery without issue, I hold both untill cwm comes up...

FWIW I flashed with nvflash first then updated through rom manager
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ggrant3876:

[T-Mobile LG G2x] jumaaneface:
likewise. did u nvflash test2 recovery? also im sure youre aware of needing edify updater scripts

edit: nvm :)

signing only takes a few minutes at best anyways.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] krylon360:
Turns out UOT zip was signed. lol

no, just the RM fakeflash recovery.

yeah, with CWM3 its edify only

flashed fine on the sgs4g so I know the zip is good. maybe nvflash is really needed. Not sure what Status 0 is.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] los0325:
So does this mean that when cm7 or a custom rom is available (tw) cough cough lol we can not flash it thru clear clockwork?

Does this mean the recovery we flashed with Rom Manager is no good? Is there a way of removing this recovery and going back to stock?

Thanks,

[T-Mobile LG G2x] hypmatize:
Yeah not quite sure what to do at the moment either.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dnichols4:
If you want to remove it, just delete the update.zip file from /sdcard.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] artismyrevolt:
Well I guess until rom manager has the ability to flash clockwork recovery to the actual recovery partition, I just won't be messing with my phone too much. Probably a good thing, so I can make sure there isn't a hardware issue requiring a phone swap first before I F it up.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] blitz911:
Thanks, I was wondering how to remove it as well..
[T-Mobile LG G2x] vinnyjr:
Thanks for the tip. Is this recovery by way of rom manager usable for anything? Will we be able to flash anything with it at all or is it better to wait for an update???
[T-Mobile LG G2x] baykakes:
Worked like a charm! Did this yesterday and backed up the original ROM... LOVE the simplicity!

[edit] noticed some comments about it not working just quite right.... Guess I'll be deleting the update.zip and waiting

Ok So I tried Flashing the recovery through rom manager and when it downloaded it asked for su permission I Pressed allow clockwork gave me an error stating i did not have enough rights to flash recovery rom manager force closed and the phone turned off and now when I try restarting I get a boot loop at the LG screen. When I press Vol- + power it says S/W Upgrade Please wait while upgrading but does not do anything after that its been on the screen for more than 20 minutes any ideas how i could fix this?

[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboy15:
you guys have to flashed it back to (2.somthing something) because (3.something something) and above is for gingerbread thats why it cant mount .

Please link to where this info is. since i know people who ran betas of rom manger 3.x on my rom which was froyo based. did they change it in later builds. ??

Not saying you are wrong but i would like to see confirmation on this since i know this was not the case prior.

Is there any point in time that rom manager will be able to flash recovery to the recovery partition? Or will nvflash be required no matter what? Like, is it physically impossible?

EDIT: emailed koush: he said it's not possible. Must use nvflash method to have clockwork on the true recovery partition.

I heard T-Mobile is going to charge for tethering..I heard this from T-Mobile rep does anyone know about this??
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Frrrrrrunkis:
That. Makes sense if they're about to bought out by ATT
[T-Mobile LG G2x] atlp99:
Yes T-mobile charges for tethering, it's $15. If you only use it occasionaly then you will probably get by without a problem, but if you use it consistently you will get blocked / get a message to add tethering to your account.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] EtherealRemnant:
Actually you get free tethering if you have the 2GB unlimited plan - both USB and wifi - confirmed with business customer care (and it counts for regular customers as well) - she was very stern though when she warned me that when I get throttled, I will be lucky to get dial up speeds.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] wootek76:
The rep i spoke to she told me that its gonna just stop working out of blue. She keep asking me do i want her to add the feature and i told her I'll wait til i cant use it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Henchman:
How can they tell if I'm using my phone as a Wifi hotspot to tether my iPad?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] graffixnyc:
Some people who tethered their mytouch 4g got warning text messages about tethering and having to add the plan and then it was disabled for them after that. I heard it happens when you use the stock tethering app as opposed to using the one in CM 7 or wifi-tether. I never really go over my 5gb limit so I have never even been throttled. I tether all the time with my mytouch 4g to my streak 7 and xoom. I have yet to get a message about it. I think as long as you're not going overboard with it you will stay under the radar and be safe. I have tethered for years on TMO with my blackberries and now my mytouch 4g. Does the G2X have a tethering app built in?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] generalagony:
It has the stock android tether settings so yes.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] t0ny0:
Even if they start charging - it will happen the same way it happened to all the android phones on ATT that actually do charge - XDA developers will find a way to give us tethering with 3rd party apps and whatnot, and its all going to work for free.

I love android, and the developers in XDA have a big part of why I love android :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
They can do what ever they want but they won't be able to stop me from using Easy Tether. Than can deactivate the built in Wireless tethering all they want. By the way, I have been using Easy Tether for over a year without one message from T-Mobile.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] CB620:
I have the 5gb limit and I never got a notice to add tethering to my account. I only use it when im in the car and I need to use my laptop. Tmobile keeps sending me a text saying I qualify for a upgrade of my plan. But I keep disregarding it because I heard they reduced it to 2gb with limitations.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] CB620:
I go over my limit every month. It sucks. Sometimes when im home I forget to switch to wifi. So I can only blame myself.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] andonnguyen:
One month I went up to 13GB of use (well, amazing having flash on your phone to watch tv shows that use up a lot of bandwidth, and back when the data cap was 10GB), and never got a notice, just got throttled down to EDGE speeds. Even in more recent months, going over 5GB just got me throttled, and that's about it.

The Rom is from sensation that has a higher resolution screen, hence its doesn't fit. If you read the thread even just the 1st post, you would know this.

We are talking about the Sensation ROM and it doesn't fit the DHD screen because the resolution of the HTC Sensation is greater. (960×540 versus 800x480)

[Hero CDMA Android Development] AspenTree:
So I'm planning on putting this on the android market and I really don't know much about java. Yes I have a lot of free time to learn it but I'm trying to get this done faster than it takes me to learn the java language (not to say that I'm not going to learn the language any way :D). I am looking for a partner/team to help me make it an app on the android market. There will be a free version of the application (for xda users of course) and a paid version so that us as a team can make a profit for all our hard work. I my vision for the app is to make it completely universal for all of android. I have the files and tweaks all set already set so that I can have tweaks for ALL of android OS's because I've been holding on to these for a while waiting to see if I could learn java fast enough to do it alone. The specifics of my vision are to make seperate sections in the UI of the app so that the user can choose a category and apply tweaks according to that category. If you are interested in helping me make this an app for all of android phones then please let me know here or through pm. Also we will be splitting the profits equally. So if there are 5 of us we split it 5 ways, 3 of us split it 3 ways and so on and so on. Also I plan on only charging $0.50 - $1.00 for the app. I don't think that is too bad of a price. Can't wait to get this show on the road because I've been holding back on

so much

and releasing it with the app (which will be huge as is) will be so much more awesome :D

Can't wait to get to work with the team.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] collin_ph:
Are you going to continue to use my code (and others' code) in your app? I'm only asking because just yesterday, I asked pretty much the same question you just asked today-- we're working on essentially the same project, however, I developed all of my code from scratch. If my battery tweak is going to be used commercially, I'd like to have some say in it-- and I'm pretty much in the same boat you are from a java development perspective. It could be a major coincidence, but it just made the same request in the board and it got me wondering what was up.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] AspenTree:
The only code I used from other's was your code that determined the power source ( i have another 2 other methods of finding the power source if you don't want me to use your code). I developed all of my tweaks from scratch too as of i think v1.2 when I kicked out all other's tweaks that I just copied, pasted, and credited them. I wanted this to be my own work (besides the fact that i used your power source detecting code). But if you want you and I could team up on the app if you'd like. I used your power source code to make a setcpu replacement. Only thing is, is that I never studied user interfaces in bash scripting so i don't know how to give the user a choice as to what value they'd like certain profiles to be. I see you know how to do that in your script. I was going to look at how you did it and just remix it for my script but i'm going to come up with my own menu from scratch but this menu will be the app's menu and not a bash script menu and it won't be like yours, this is all kifno :D. But yeah other than your power source detecting code, which is pretty much the simplest way to find power source I just couldn't see it in root explorer when I didn't have access to a computer with adb shell for a while:

power=` cat /sys/class/power_source/battery/charging_source `

this is all kifno's work that i spent hours testing the new values and of the tweaks i came up with.

EDIT: also i've been talking about making this into an app for a long time so yeah it is just a coincidence. I just decided that I wouldn't be able to do it alone because I don't have the knowledge to do so alone....right now :D

EDIT 2: Also if you don't want me to use your power source detecting code I have another simple method of doing so, it just doesn't show usb charging. This is what I will use if you don't want me using your code that you use.

power_source=` cat /sys/class/power_supply/battery/status `

Then I will just revamp my tweak so that is is optimial for charging and not charging rather than optimal tweaks for usb charging, ac charging, and battery power. So no biggie if you don't want me to use your code because I had many other ways of determing it as well. also if you'd like to team up with me and my team of people who are going to help make my script an app i'd be glad to join forces to make one AWESOME app that will potentially be a MUST HAVE for the heroc. collin_ph batt tweak + kifno tweaks = YOUR HERO HAS JUST GAINED SUPER POWERS!!!!! :D:D:D:D:D
