[LG Optimus 2x] BlackDragonPL:
Hello everyone,

Few days ago I installed my first custom ROM - CyanogenMod 7 Nightly #203. First of all I would like to thank CyanogenMod team for their time and effort. The ROM is amazingly fast and responsive!

However during the first few days of usage I found few issues:

#1 Sensor bug - it has been mentioned in this topic before. If you open and close an application that is using the rotation sensor, the sensor is still being used and drains the battery, despite the fact that the app itself is closed. Right now the battery monitor shows that 34% of battery usage came from GPS Status application that I used for 20 sec. 10 hours ago. It's similar with Gallery, Camera etc. - very high battery drain for no reason.

#2 Vibration for notifications is not working in silent mode (maybe I'm missing something here). Anyways when the phone is in silent mode it vibrates just fine for incomming calls but does nothing for messages.

EDIT: My mistake, it's working fine. I missed the settings in messages application.

#3 Volume slider color and icon highlight color do not change with theme - it's set to orange / yellow all the time, no matter what theme I choose (using the build in CM7 Theme Chooser). I have managed to change the icon highlight using GO Launcher EX settings, but volume slider is still orange.

Also few times a message (SMS) I wrote was not sent, but that was probably because I use an old baseband (405 + 405 RIL).

[LG Optimus 2x] CryptKilla:
Tnx Rusty.

Can this kernel be overclocked?

And why you dont open new thread for your kernel and kang? So we can follow you in this threads.

In this cm thread is a problem to find amy updates or similar :)

[LG Optimus 2x] koboltzz:
Ehm, look here, there is already a kang thread.

Kangs are nothing special, only earlier builds than the buildbot does.

For updates you should look:

here

and here.

New kangs are build by several people here ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
No overclock, it's 'stock' CM source, just newer than available in the nightlies. There is already a kang thread where I posted it, so ner :p

Mostly I don't bother and just tweet them, but thought the kernel was interesting enough to post about.
[LG Optimus 2x] CryptKilla:
Tnx for answers :)

But what nighty is used in your kang?

Sent from my Tapatalk | www.androidhr.isgreat.org
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
Question does not compute. There is no nightly used, it is built from source.
[LG Optimus 2x] ehmjay:
can we use it on miui?
[LG Optimus 2x] koboltzz:
Not sure about what you mean.

CM7 KANGs are entire ROMs like miui.

Miui is based on CM7, therefore the new kernelbuild in my signature MIGHT work, but need not necessarily.
[LG Optimus 2x] ehmjay:
i was asking about the kernel.. i would like to try it on miui ics build

It should work I used to flash this kernel with ics build but I not use ics anymore due to my phone can't make a call (no signal) with this miui ics I mean with or without this kernel it still no phone signal :confused:

so how your phone has the signal my phone flash with all other rom no problem about phone signal include miui ics 1.11.9 the problem is only 1.11.26.

..... for the fun sake

I'm quite glad of this current situation. I'm quite sure RC will build another feat in our devices based on ICS.
[LG Optimus 2x] MikuSE610:
Pretty glad that my O2X will atleast stay with me until Q3-Q4 2012 :D

Who cares about some half baked partly working p990 build...

There is much bigger newz on the horizon!

RC posted a new google+ update.

Wtf, thats great news! Better late than never eh
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
Probably not for a little while. The build on Fitsnugly's G2X was supplied by RC, from what I can gather (since he needs someone to test G2X stuff on).
[LG Optimus 2x] CryptKilla:
Rusty

After instaling your kernel on latest kang after phone call my phone shuts down. Any solution? Kernel problem?

Sent from my Tapatalk | www.androidhr.isgreat.org
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
Doesn't happen to me, so no solution other than not using it :)
[LG Optimus 2x] dakdroid:
For me the kernel has those errors too:

Either shut down after phone call or

phone call stops after 10secs.
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
Just had a 1 minute call, phone is still going after it ended.

Dunno why it's different for you guys.

@phone crashes

Do you use another baseband than 218?

If so did you install a matching RIL using getril?

I recommend only using baseband 218 with the 218 ril that comes with cyanogenmod.
[LG Optimus 2x] MikuSE610:
Anyone knows a working LG home?
[LG Optimus 2x] Vippo321:
Baseband

I cant change baseband with smartflash tool. It looks like a driver error or bad signature so the smart flash doesnt recognize the phone is connected. I dont really understand why, because when I was used modaco custom rom it worked well. So the question is, can cause cyanogenmod this incompatibility or how i can change change the baseband? Thank you.
[LG Optimus 2x] unfugor:
anyone knows anything that works from lg? ;-)
[LG Optimus 2x] Wing_Zero85:
I've see the previous ICS sshot on out optimus 2x !

Where i can find the page from the author? is there a flashable zip to test??
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
You saw a screenshot of a G2X, not an O2X and there is no .zip for it.

The authors page is here: https://plus.google.com/u/0/115049428938715274412
[LG Optimus 2x] Wing_Zero85:
Tnx rusty! You're as always the best.

Yes, but O2x or G2x same hardware and same tegra2 problem for ICS! So, if one will be solved, the other one too.
[LG Optimus 2x] destilant:
How do you know its g2x and not o3d or black ?
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
Too much real estate below the screen to be an O3D, O3D has it's HDMI out on the side, Optimus Black doesn't have HDMI out.

Plus the screenshot he's talking about is this:
[LG Optimus 2x] hisham027:
Have a look at the picture, Model is shown as LG-P999.
[LG Optimus 2x] destilant:
Oh all right, thank you for the information :)
[LG Optimus 2x] koboltzz:
Guys with phonecrash after call:

Do you do a cache and dalvik cache wipe, before you upgrade the kernel?

Remember after that, cache partition is back to ext3. Flash ext4.zip or similar you will find here or on modaco.

Of course changing fileformat won't solve your possible baseband leak.
[LG Optimus 2x] BritSwedeGuy:
Cute but really nothing to get too excited about, getting ICS onto a phone is one thing but getting that phone to then actually work is months away.

Remember that ICS has been "seen" on a G1 as well.
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
Well there is a video of an O2X doing HDMI out, and with a pretty smooth rotation animation.

Also the screenshot shows working battery status, radio and WLAN which is pretty good

RC says he has 5 devices almost fully working (just no camera), the O2X is probably in that bunch, along with O3D, Optimus Black, a tablet and I've no idea what the other might be.
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
Where have u been? :p

... joking ...
[LG Optimus 2x] hisham027:
May be RC is counting O2X and G2X as separate devices.
[LG Optimus 2x] smoki3:
http://www.cyanogenmod.com/blog/cm9-progress-update
[LG Optimus 2x] :
RC also maintains the Geeksphone branch. So the 5 devices could be Optimus Black, O3D, Geeksphone one, A tablet and p999+990:D
[LG Optimus 2x] wapz:
That is massive news for cm on everything tegra-based. Mostly tablets and ICS but of course as well for our p990's :-)
[LG Optimus 2x] :
Since builds 20X i'm having bsod every single day. This morning after another bsod and after unplug from the charger, the battery went from 100 to 1% charge in a couple of minutes.

When will we have this problem solved?
[LG Optimus 2x] :
I'm using #203 since the day it came out. I have not experienced even a single BSOD till now.

I'd say this is the most stable rom out there for our device right now. Except for Network issues very rarely,no problems with this rom whatsoever!
[LG Optimus 2x] Ancalagon_ZA:
Same. I switched to a modified stock rom because of it. Been using CM7 for a few months but its just too unstable.

Disclaimer: even with that, I understand and appreciate all the hard work that the CM guys put into it. I just want to use something more stable for a while.
[LG Optimus 2x] miina_tokiha:
did you two have SOD while charging that makes the phone really hot?

to avoid SOD while charging, you can enable the "Stay Awake" options in Settings>Applications>Development

at least it works for me.
[LG Optimus 2x] joel8736:
Not a single bsod for me with #204 (also with previous release)
[LG Optimus 2x] sibbor:
Looks like I'm not alone getting hyped for our bright future. There's been so many great news recently, including nVidia's moves and RC's progress. An ice cream sandwhich have never tasted this good... ;-)

Gonna flash CM9 the very first build available, just like I did with CM7 for our devices. Bring it on RC; I'm ready for a camera less phone!
[LG Optimus 2x] salisbury_steak:
I have gotten an SOD 2x already. Where a callcame in and the screen would not turn on. Would you have any solutions for that? Im running default CM7 temasek kang#5 for 204.

[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
I don't have sod at all since long ago.
[LG Optimus 2x] DeathscytheDK:
I just had my first SOD after I installed CM7 3 month ago.

played angry birds rio for 30 min. ended the game and put the phone on standby.

after a few minutes the phone rebooted by it self.

after the reboot the phone went in to sleepmode normaly. and then it entered the SOD.

I pulled the batteri, and the phone is acting normal now.

One thing though. I lost 20% of my batteri life after the batteri pull.
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
SOD seems to cane the battery when it happens.
[LG Optimus 2x] koboltzz:
Battery driver from cyanogenmod needs 30 sec. to 1 min. without battery to calibrate itself. After that time, reinsert the battery and you will see the right value.
[LG Optimus 2x] DeathscytheDK:
Well, that got me 4% back ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] koboltzz:
Yes, in your situation :p

Changing an empty battery with a fully loaded without waiting this time, will get you 99% 'back' if you do it again with waiting.
[LG Optimus 2x] salisbury_steak:
It's probably a rogue app in that case then. And Im guessing its one of my apps with call.state.change as an event trigger.

Would I still have a logcat report of what caused a crash after I do a battery pull? Or... anyone willing to teach me how to know which app is causing this?

[LG Optimus 2x] MikuSE610:
Nope. It can be ported though.

But the interface won't change. Personally I prefer this stock Android interface anyway.

The lockscreen is the stock CM7 one I think, attached you find a screenshot of both the lockscreen and the homescreen.

hello there , i want my photos from camera and the video save in the phone storage and not in sdcard .. does anyone know how i could do it ?
[LG Optimus 2x] koboltzz:
You know, that phone storage gives you only ~0,99 GB space?

CM7 camera app stores pictures in internal memory (5,50 GB) by default and this is not changeable.
[LG Optimus 2x] aMpeX:
At least my phone stores the photos on my SDCard. Internal memory is completely unused, unless you change the appropriate settings.
[LG Optimus 2x] koboltzz:
Sorry, didn't know that

settings-> cyanogenmod-> applications-> use internal memory

also affects the camera app.
[LG Optimus 2x] oiza:
Hello boys, news for CM9 ics?

Inviato dal mio Optimus 2X usando Tapatalk
[LG Optimus 2x] aMpeX:
afaik it simply switches the mountpoints for the internal and external SD card. So while apps can use the internal SD card with these settings, they loose the ability to use the external one at the same time.
[LG Optimus 2x] pastime1971:
If u really want it, I had made a camera app that allows to change where pic and video are saved.

click my id and then threads started by me. (Typing from p990, so bit inconvenient to find the link and post it ATM)

It's a bit old, but should work.

edit: the link is http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1162125 and the apk had been compiled for #187, so quite old. i will try to compile it again for #204 when i get a chance.

edit: recompiled it. now it is up to date.
[LG Optimus 2x] pastime1971:
google map

it was bothering me that the new google maps 6.0.0.0 broke the compass, so i searched for the older version and installed 5.12.0, and it brought back the compass.

as you remember, 5.12.0 doesn't change screen orientation (unless you restart the map, or go to the setting and come back. annoying, but still better than no compass)

if anyone needs one, here is the link http://www.mediafire.com/?v1hc3g7uzbzcxvx
[LG Optimus 2x] Ohlikken:
Is there also a option for turning the sound off when taking a picture or recording? :P
[LG Optimus 2x] pastime1971:
that's already in cm.

just go to Settings > CM settings > Sound settings > Mute camera shutter
[LG Optimus 2x] koboltzz:
It seems that there is the problem back with the sensor usage after closing some apps since a few kang updates.

I'm pretty sure that this level was low before.

Now even the camera consumes battery non stop...
[LG Optimus 2x] Ohlikken:
Ah thank you so much <3

Found one annoying thing do that made me switch back.

With CM7 when watching twitch.tv with CM7 the video will just go green and unwatchable. :(

Really hoping that that get fixed, liked CM7 the small time I tested.:)
[LG Optimus 2x] pastime1971:
I don't think camera, gallery, map apps consume more battery, because they logs sensor usage.

My phone was on for 8 hours w/o running them, and 7 hours after running them, and battery drain rates are identical.

Maybe it needs one more test w/ unchecking automatic screen, which keeps sensor off, until you run camera app. (Yes, even with that setting off, sensor turns on once you run camera app, because it needs orientation, and it accesses sensor directly.)

My point is that it may not directly reflect battery consumption just because it logs usage time, but that is just my guess.

Battery usage does say map, gallery, camera apps consumed 12% each right now, so I could be totally wrong. Nevertheless I am pretty happy w/ battery consumption of 3% per hour. That's about 1.5 days.
[LG Optimus 2x] koboltzz:
But in any case. On latest KANG, open camera once and look, how fast battery will drain. This Problem does not exist for opera mobile and quickpic, which also uses g-sensor.

Strange. Lucky guy! Do you wipe before you flash a new build? What do you wipe? I wipe everything for huge updates and get this problem.
[LG Optimus 2x] tychodebrahe:
Video camera problem

I have a problem with videocamera in nightly 204 (and also following KANGs). When I switch to video in CM7 camera app I see the moving preview for a second, then the camera refocuses and then the picture freezes, sometimes together with camera app UI. Random tapping on the screen causes FC. If I start video camera without SD card mounted, the it does not freeze.

I'm attaching output from alogcat, if anyone can help me out or at least have the same issue with videocamera, please, share a word.

//I tried using a different memory card and the problem is gone. Seems my Kingston 8GB class 4 is ready to reformat.

//OK, a simple (quick) format did the trick. As ussual to start looking for a solution for real I had to share my problem with xda :D
[LG Optimus 2x] MikuSE610:
I can't change bands via *#*#info#*#* is it normal? I can change it on my GT540. Also my signal reception is poorer than my GT540 indoors.
[LG Optimus 2x] r1si:
any news on ics ?
[LG Optimus 2x] pastime1971:
i experienced that dalvik cache wipe is necessary when i was updating part of rom, such as framework, camera app, etc. so, it may not be necessary for rom update, but i wipe dalvik cache once in a while. i used to wipe cache as well, but not any more.

well, i would say i am lucky. after all, i still get charging BSOD once in a while. i will try to test battery consumption again, but i think 36 hours usage per charging is pretty good for this kind of hardware.

edit: ok, so i tested battery drain with respect to sensor usage: screenshot at http://www.mediafire.com/i/?c2qzcuueci83vcp

first 3 hours w/ sensor disabled, rebooted, second 3 hours w/ camera, gallery, map apps run, third 3 hours w/ sensor enabled back.

for the first 2 hours, wifi was off for some reason (i move from subbasement to ground, and wifi gets lost sometimes), and that is why drain is slower, but once wifi is back on, the slope is exactly same as the other two portions. it was unfortunate that i only have 1 hour of the first test, but i think it confirms that sensor usage logging may not be exact reflection of battery consumption. you can do a similar test, and see what happens.
[LG Optimus 2x] :
I'm geting BSOD while charging veri often :(. Regarding the battery, the drainage with the latest changes and a KANG rom is very big! Only 9 hours and need to plug the phone again to charge and the usage today was very, but very low! Some e-mails and a couple of phone calls, something that with older builds will give me about 50% or even more after 9h!

[LG Optimus 2x] pastime1971:
try flashing this kernel http://www.mediafire.com/?28g9ud8ylrjoi8k (it is basically cm kernel compiled w/ some CFLAGS)

it doesn't completely fix BSOD, but it seems to charge better. i've had two successful overnight charges yesterday and today. if it helps BSOD, then we can pursue further. if not, it is a placebo effect... :(

as for battery drain, i get about 33 hours w/ minimum usage, email checking per 15 min, gmail sync, gtalk logged in, wifi always on, and mobile data turned off

Just to stay on topic, I've got a question. What's the best (easiest) way for me to know the changelog for the latest Kang I'm flashing? Or for the latest nightly for that matter?

I can't seem to find a n00b friendly CM7 changelog. :(
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
As I don't have a KANG thread, I don't keep track of changelogs between my KANGs. I hardly even announce it....Only thing is there is definitely at least 1 commit that is for either us or all devices. Also I'll build if there is a kernel update.

You know what, I actually went to that site before and I was getting a blank page, so I thought it was discontinued or something. Anyways, I see the logs again.

Thanks for all the replies. Clicked your buttons. ;)

Well I still got it with BB 725 vork kernel or cm. I don't get it with official 2.3. A friend of mine never gets it same BB. So it must be something in the hardware.
