I'm having difficulty understanding why you think it's OUR responsibility to find the information YOU need. Can you help me with this one?

A search will answer your question much faster than posting and waiting for a response--especially given that a search is how WE'RE going to find the information. Perhaps if you were willing to do slightly more work than none, you would find our responses (and those on the vibrant forum) make a lot more sense

A question that begins with "I'm sure this has been asked before" should always be immediately followed with the (truthful) statement, "but I've used the search and can't find it".

[T-Mobile LG G2x] kennyb78:
I just read the forums. Too scared to ask questions b/c someone may jump all over me. Why don't you just ignore the post if it bothers you that much. If someone is willing to help out, let them help out. Just a thought. But maybe you prefer to limit those that post, such as myself.

Regardless, thanks for all the info in here. I've been having a lot of fun flashing. Previous to owning this phone I've never really gotten into this stuff. Haven't screwed anything up so bad that it couldn't be fixed! (knock on wood!)

Because we live in a world that has rules, and those rules have to be guarded by snarky forum members. They have a greater responsibility than you could possibly fathom. You weep for skater4690, and you curse members like reisaru. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what the rest of us know. That calling out skater4690, while tragic, holds back a flood of similar posts. That righteous indignation, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves us all time. Deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want hardass members on these boards.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] pablo1215:
Love the "few good men" reference here and I agree while it may be a harmless question to you it's that thinking that causes the thread to be 200-300 pages of junk because the same questions gets asked and answered multiple times. It would just save everybody time if people just learned to search more and find it themselves. Really it will probably save you time anyway.

reboot and recovery was working for me from the power menu in build 22, and does not work in 23, works for anyone else?

Seems like latest nightly fixes my reboots without having to re press the button down. Alarm clock force closes and music doesn't phase back on after receiving a call. Things are getting so much better over all!

Guys does anyone know if I could overwrite our STOCK rom to include the phone and keyboard in cm7? It's too unstable for me to keep cm7 as a daily driver. Any help is greatly appreciated since idk much of what I'm doing :)

Incredibly fast response, thank you. I will be doing this later on tonight. Now i can't wait to get out of work to teach myself how to go back to stock and overwrite those files. And again thanks a lot, once cm7 goes stable I'll hop back on board :D

Mobile app also didn't include the replied to txt or I was too arsed to look for the prose button...this was meant for the Guy who was looking for an adw configuration file......back to the original post...

Can't attach a file w mobile app PM me if you want it so I remember later or else it'll get lost in this sloppy thread, my backed up adw.ex configuration file flies on any rom I use it with....dunno if compatible with the stock adw w the rom...go into spare parts and turn window and transition animations tofast also
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jstrayy:
The windows and transitions thing helped, thank you. And I'll try your backup with cm7 and see if it makes it any better. I'm just tired of random freezing, lock screen issues, and media play back and i understand that it's a nightly so I'm not bashing the developers or anything, in fact I LOVE the rom but there are some things that I just can't live without.

im new to this bro. can u be a little more specific please.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jstrayy:
Download the file, place it on the root of your SD card, and boot into recovery. Once in recovery look for an option that says install zip from SD card and click it. Then look for the file and press power on it to get started. Use the volume buttons to navigate and power button to select.

To go into recovery have your phone off. Hold the volume down button and power button until a little android pops up. Or go into rommanager and boot into recovery from there.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Hoezack:
download what file? whats the name of the file?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jstrayy:
Go a couple of pages back, some users already supplied you a link. It's called gapps and stands for Google apps.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] lytener:
Is there a better way to track known issues (Github, Wiki, Changelog, etc)? Just wondering what everyone else is referring to. #23 is a great build so far. Looking forward to the new kernel in #24.

My observed #23 issues are:

-Brightness bug

-Permanent sleep (device locks and doesn't wake up or freezes)

-Alarm clock force closes

-Network bars show zero, but actually have connectivity after connecting to WiFi or enabling Airplane mode

Other people have commented on:

-Streaming music to bluetooth audio doesn't work

-Choppy music playback

-Regular phone audio does not phase back on after playing music

Overall it's becoming more usable. I almost had buyers remorse with this phone until the guys at Cyanogen released this one. Thanks!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nccu_eagles:
LOL

gapps is the name of the file genius!!!!!!!!

I totally agree! just because you can do it (install a custom rom) doesn't mean you should! seriously, if you have no idea what you are doing then you shouldn't be attempting this **** in the first place.... people like you are probably the reason companies like HTC are now locking down their devices because you brick your **** and want to send it in for a replacement..... jump off a bridge if you CAN'T READ INSTRUCTIONS geeeeeeesh :mad:
[T-Mobile LG G2x] j2eubank:
ROFL :cool:

Thing that cracks me up is how sensitive everyone is. Tell someone to search and they get all upset. Pointing you to the search button is helping...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Hoezack:
WOW what a douchbag! You dont have to be the smartest person in the world to install a custom rom.....this is my first time and i flashed cm7 without bricking my phone.....i was asking to be more specific.....so i dont brick my phone....(K) You said download gapps and flash via recovery? Thats not explaining anything. the link u gave me has a bunch of zip files ....I was asking which is the right one!!! People dont brick there phones because they dont know what there doing?! They brick there phones because people like you who think they know everything half ass explain things. but, uuuum yeah Thanks.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nccu_eagles:

[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
Come on guys. Take it easy.

It's easier to just post a direct link then to post 9 comments of unuseful information.

http://goo-inside.me/gapps/gapps-gb-20110307-signed.zip

The link IS in the first post, but it DOES have a ton of older versions listed. For those interested in learning, the GAPPS page has a table where the very top row has a link for used in all versions of CM7. That is the link above.

There are newer versions available. I think I just saw a link for 20110503, but I can't remember where.

What I do, for those interested, is use the one listed above. KEEP it on your SD card in a safe place. You don't want to download and flash other ones without first wiping or you'll run into problems. But if you wanted to try NEWER versions, wipe and flash between uses.

Find one you like and if it works, HOLD on to it. If you start mixing GAPPS or download too many, you'll run into problems trying to keep track of which one works and which one doesn't. I only keep 2 at a time. The KNOWN GOOD one and one I want to try. If the new one works, I delete the old one.

Just my 2 cents.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nccu_eagles:

I swear this forum is a lot more entertaining than I remembered. Lol people fight more often. Guys if you have a question search first. Its a courtesy to other members not a hassle. And if you're not sure or are too lazy post and another user will advise the right direction. Please give solid information and links if possible. We are all apart of the XDA community. Help those who are new and be courteous to others by searching. Can we stop bickering and just go on with talking about the CM7 Nighties?

Hope it helps someone! :)

Also I grabbed Swype and the camera from the Eagleblood ROM will push it to see if it works! :)

Will let you know here :)

Might be a stupid question for someone here. But how do i tell that i flashed CW7 to this g2x? Seems like i have, but there are no cw settings. I still have the LG camera (afaik). Just have not seen ONE thing that says Cyanogen on it, or anywhere in the settings.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] jlevy73:
You need to flash this through cwr included with nvflash.

I did everything according to the tutorial, made sure that i flashed cwr using nvflash, as i had previously flashed it using rom manager. Once i loaded rom manager flashed the nightly that showed up.

EDIT:

Just tried to go into CWR again using vol down + power and it brought me to the S/W Upgrade Please wait while upgrading screen.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jlevy73:
Did you do a complete wipe (data, cache and dalvik) prior to flashing?

[T-Mobile LG G2x] fordstang99:
I tried using the search function but it said it wasnt available right now...will we get the HDMI output on cm7 or did i miss something?

thanks
[T-Mobile LG G2x] inpherno3:
yes did a full backup, wipe , and dalvik cache wipe. It flashed a 2.2.2 build onto this phone for some reason.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Amd4life:
imo, internet speed is faster, gps locks faster, touchscreen is more responsive

im still only seeing the slower 2.4GHZ band on my dual router (odd since on gbread CM7 on my mytouch I saw the full speed 5GHZ band)

screen brightness wont stick for me after screen lock, I have to toggle it using power widget

and most importantly no 4G/wifi toggle issue at all!!!, this only may make me keep the phone lol

REALLY APPRECIATE IT

I've never understood this fascination people out here have with the search feature. I personally don't think it's any big deal to have the same question asked more than once..and rather than telling someone to search for the answer, why not just answer the damn question or post a link to the answer? It's like dealing with a bunch of two year olds.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
Well I can understand the GAPPS because there are a million versions. Just like the May 3rd has problems with the Tegras... You never know.

Maybe they need a thread just for GAPPS discussions. At least then you can say, "Check the GAPPS thread".

Nonononono! If you have questions, AND you have already searched for, but did not find, the answers, or even if you just have trouble understanding something, then we (well, me, at least) are more than happy to answer them for you to the best of our/my (I guess I can really only speak for myself, heh) ability!

We just need to know that you've attempted to look for the information yourself and aren't using us as a kind of lazy man's Google.

PM me if you need. Just, y'know, at least try to find the answer first. =P

Two-year-olds expect others to do everything for them. If anyone's going to be compared to a two-year-old in this forum, it's going to be the people who ask questions without bothering to look for the answers.

And to answer your question about WHY it's such a big deal to have the same question asked repeatedly--Actually, screw that. Aquariumdrinker answered that question on page 216 (at the very top, no less!), so I'm not going to answer it again.

Just due to being new to this.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nccu_eagles:
if you have done a "backup" of your stock rom before flashing a custom rom you can simply wipe then restore it via recovery. otherwise if you are doing a stock rom that's not from your device you can just full wipe and then flash like you did this rom.... FULL WIPE is important if you are going from GB to froyo

Im not able to reboot, no matter what, i can only power off the phone. Is it CM7 or its just me?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jstrayy:
and what exactly is a full wipe? I select the wipe option when rom manager asks, is there more to that? I apologize for the annoyance I really am just trying to learn. Unfortunately I didn't know to do a backup when I first flashed cm7.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nccu_eagles:
yes in recovery select wipe cache, then go to advanced and wipe dalvik, then go back and do wipe data/factory reset
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nccu_eagles:
its hit or miss sometimes it reboots most times it just powers off the device happens to me on all of these roms for g2x

[T-Mobile LG G2x] bskim23:
You need to do all your wipes in recovery. Full wipe is wiping data, cache, dalvik, and system (format done in storage).

[ROM] Rooted and Stock NANDROID Restore Froyo 2.22 LG-P999-V10f (5-16-2011)

Here's a link to a backup nandroid of stock rooted rom. As a rule of thumb ALWAYS make a backup before making ANY changes. I've wasted a lot of time because I forgot to once in a while and something didn't work right.

The GPS has never been as good for me as my Nexus One, whether I'm on the stock LG ROM or CM7.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
Seems location based. I had issues with my APN's sticking at my work and home. I reboot and I have to screw with it before it'll pop up. If I reboot I have to do it again. Weird thing is that I travel for work and in the city north of us (I'm in a major city too), I rebooted a few times cause my GPS went wonky. I noticed that I had signal after every reboot.

When I got back in my city, it went back to being wonky. Same build and everything (I was in my car = I wasn't flashing anything... or was I?!)

I think strong 4G signal helps it find it better. Something weird about the way it connects because even when it finds the carriers, if you click on one to connect it errors out. Only Automatic works.... which I believe has something to do with it.

Anyway I went to EB 1.0.4 after #21 to give my nerves and phone a break.

I think #24 is going to be a good one. More kernel updates and fixes it looks like. I'm happy with EB so I'll give EB a week until I jump back in the deep CM side.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] artismyrevolt:
are you skipping the "welcome to P999" screen when you first boot your phone from a fresh wipe? if you don't do all the intro-to-the-phone stuff, it won't re-download all the apps you had before automagically. you will have to reinstall them yourself.

other options include titanium backup (in the market) to backup and restore all apps and app-data. it's a lifesaver, totally worth buying the license for the pro features.

That was for DSP. In your app drawer there is a DSP program that allows some audio enhancements.

Even if it didn't say DSP, it might be a fix for another phone, or part of the fix for A2DP, or something they thought would fix it that didn't.

The reason the team doesn't promote the nightlies is they are very much a work in progress. I have seen them put in fixes for things that broke other things badly. Often they are making the code changes and don't have a chance to test them until the next nightly comes out, ie: when you are flashing it.
