Pull the battery. With the battery pulled, press the Power button 20 times to remove any residual charge.

Then insert the battery and boot into CWM. In this order,

1) clear cache,

2) clear Dalvik

3) fix permissions

4) clear Dalvik (yes, again).

Turn off phone, then boot to Android.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] fiody:
That still does not seem to work. I flashed the latest nightly, and then flashed trinity. The way my phone works is that every time I go into CWM, it is an older version 3. I have to apply update.zip each time to get it to CWM 5.0.2. From there I do whatever I need. I am still stuck in the trinity boot logo (if I ever get passed this, deleting the boot logo will be the first thing I do).
[T-Mobile LG G2x] EEngineer:
Did you flash the latest nightly, boot the phone, then backup,

THEN flashed Trinity, and then booted again?

Because if you flashed the latest nightly and Trinity at the same time, that is asking for trouble.

What is your last backup?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] fiody:
My last backup was before I did anything. I was running the latest nightly and stock kernel I would assume. And yes, I flashed latest nightly, then flashed the kernel right after. Was I supposed to do something in between?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] TwitchyEye:
Trinity kernels are finicky about which recovery you are on. I think you need to be on 5.0.2 but it seems you're running something else. Use nvflash to flash the right recovery and that will fix that weirdness, then you probably won't have this problem.. Maybe. Lol.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mansa_noob:
Can you state your steps? Also won't hurt to first run cleanup batch and then install CM7 followed by trinity with CWM no touch recovery.

noobish comments:

-- As the story says, a kiss turned my G2X into an HTC Ruby!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] fiody:
Lol, key word here is maybe. I will try that, thank you.

---------- Post added at 10:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:59 AM ----------

I have tried to do it a number of ways. Each time I failed, I would restore my backup and try another way:

>Enter CWM (an older 3.x version)

>apply update.zip to change CWM to version 5.0.2

>Wipe cache and dalvik cache

>Install trinity kernel T15

>reboot, stuck on boot logo

>Enter CWM (an older 3.x version)

>apply update.zip to change CWM to version 5.0.2

>wipe data, cache, dalvik

>flash latest stable CM7

>flash kernel

>reboot, stuck in logo

>Enter CWM (an older 3.x version)

>apply update.zip to change CWM to version 5.0.2

>install latest CM7 nightly

>flash kernel

<reboot stuck in logo

I was told that after installing the rom, I should reboot into Android, and go back and install the kernel. When I tried to do that, the phone would not boot into Android.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] EEngineer:
1. Flash CM7 nightly ROM

2. Boot normally, make sure phone is O.K.

3. Do a backup

4. Flash Trinity kernel

5. Boot normally, make sure phone is O.K.

If you flash the nightly and the kernel at the same time, then you don't know if the issue is with the ROM or the kernel.

I suggest you go back to your last backup and re-do as I've outlined.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] fiody:
I still could not get trinity kernel to work, but mazout worked for whatever reason. I am thinking I need to get an ICS rom. I'm thinking eaglesblood.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] morfic:
If the kernel had ICS in filename, it's not to be used on older or newer roms, true.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] EEngineer:
There are no functional ICS ROMs for the G2X. It's better to do what I did, flash CM7 and skin it to ICS.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] fiody:
Trinity Kernel does not seem to work for me, I suppose mazout should be good. I will try out ICS thought, I read somewhere that it runs smooth with the right kernel installed for it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] fiody:
I did exactly as you said, and running mazout kernel, works like a dream! Many Thanks!

[T-Mobile LG G2x] flak0:
Hi Moshe22 thanks for responding. EB 1.0.4 Froyo

Edit : For now I was able to copy the mmssms.db to the sdcard and I am going to restore back to EB 1.0.4 Froyo backup. I cant lose my texts especially after this girl was texting me how she dont want to lose me as a friend but she likes some guy thats friends with my homegirl and i like the girl.. plus some pikz this chick sent me.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] c19932:
I flashed from 1.0.2 to 1.0.4, then flashed the kernel

maxmem +48mb on froyo is working :D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] flak0:
Is data working?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] c19932:
what is the difference between the two kernels for EB 1.0.4? Just that the MAXMEM+48mb means the low memory killer will kill sooner? or does it mean it will have 48 more free ram?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] flak0:
I noticed that is now the only Kernel for EB 1.0.4 Froyo
[T-Mobile LG G2x] fcisco13:
I would try it but, I CANT BACKUP!!

G2X
[T-Mobile LG G2x] PlasticChicken:
I'm just relying on my old eb1.04 ext3 backups. I just flashed the new kernel over the old ext4 one after wiping dalvik.

Data is working.

It seems that my max memory has indeed increased.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] BDorestant:
Here is a pic of one of my benchmark test.......highest score so far is 4201 which is 11 off from this score of 4190
[T-Mobile LG G2x] BDorestant:
Don't know if this is a problem with the kernel or just my phone, but when I woke up my phone was off on the charger?? Never happened to me before, but all I had to do was pull the battery no biggie to me.

It shut off again so I'm guessing it's the kernel......if that can be looked at and fixed in the next update build it would be perfect. Only problem I found thus far

EB1.04F MAXMEM +48MB

Trinity15 G2x - EB104F - EXT4 - vibrator works (new 5/16/2011), possibly usb mounting doesn't work

Where in there does it say anything about gingerbread?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cbowens:
I'm having the same problem a couple others are where flashing the kernel results in the phone not booting up (show's the LG screen then powers down). This has happened both when I use the bionix kernel with the bionix rom (both when I've been using it for a while, as well as a fresh install), and also when I've tried to flash on the AOSP 2.3.4 rom (several versions of it at that). I've tried both on cwm 3.0.2.4 and 3.0.2.7 (both real flash not fake flash). On the fresh installs I've done system wipe/restore, dalvik cache wipe, and even just going through in the mount settings and formating things manually. I can't think of anything else I can try or why its still having issues. Seems to just be anytime I try to throw on a new kernel, since both the base bionix rom as well as cm7 nightlies (very early versions, haven't used cm7 in a while), flashed fine. Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] allofusjw:
It was the last one when I posted the reply last night. Now, its the 2nd to last one
[T-Mobile LG G2x] skyhigh2004:
Finally got the ext 4 bionix kernel running but even without oc it was going to 106+ degrees and was loosing 12% an hour stand bye. Love the speed but between the battery drain and temp had to go back to stock kernel. Anybody else having similar issues?

Sent from my G2x
[T-Mobile LG G2x] fcisco13:
I would suggest wiping cache and dalvik cache twice before flashing kernel. I've seen that cwm recovery does not wipe dalvik cache so maybe you can delete it from data/dalvik then boot to recovery wipe cache then flash kernel.....just a suggestion.

G2X
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cbowens:
Just tried it, including deleting the data/dalvik folder manually, and it didn't work. This time the LG logo goes away, and power remains on with a black screen, but nothing else happens. I can get the capacitive buttons to light up, but there's no response, and I can feel the phone heating up. I noticed that attempting to wipe dalvik cache in cwm yields the message "E:uknown volume for path [/sd-ext]" on the screen where it asks you if you're sure you want to proceed. I can then still continue on to say yes, and it say's Dalvik wiped, but that error is bothering me a bit. Any ideas?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kev0153:
Getting lots of screen freezes and lock screen problems, I have to pull the battery out. I'm running the froyo non memmax version. I might try removing all the undervolting to see what happens.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] fcisco13:
Dont go too low, i had mine at -50 for all and it did freeze for a bit, not enough for battery pull. Now im doing -25 and testing, so far no freeze...

@morfic can you in simple words enlighten me about the schedulers.. brief description on them...

G2X
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kev0153:
yeah I'm at -25 now. I also removed the check mark for the screen off option. That seems to have helped so far.

Yeah, still having problems had to pull the battery 3 times this morning after it wouldn't wake up. Going to remove all undervolts and see if that helps otherwise I'm going to restore my ext3 backup.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] KingDavid63:
I'm on eb104 trinity and mines -50 on all up to 1.2 and every things working perfect all day. Been unplugged 6 and a half hours still at 80 percent... I love this phone again...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] t0ny0:
Running EaglesBlood 1.4 (Froyo), with this kernel, OC'ed to 1.2 max, UV at -50 on everything, phone is working like a charm, scheduler is "deadline" and I have checked the "force minimum freq when screen off" . Not a single complaint so far.

Thank you morfic, for making this device usable again :D

I used to have a whole bunch of screen freezes, and the phone just randomly acting weird with everything stock... No more :D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] allofusjw:
The recovery looks in the wrong place to wipe dalvik-cache(in /cache partition) when it actually resides in /data. The sd-ext message is related to apps2sd which has the option to move the dalvik-cache to sd-ext. If you manually delete dalkik-cache youre probably going to have to reboot via pc with adb reboot since the phone will lock up after deletion.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] gaww:
I have been on EB 1.0.4 and the respective kernel for two days. Max OC is 1500 with -75UV. No frizzing or problems coming out of sleep (I have toe force minimal freq on sleep checked).

In addition to USB Mounting not working, USB tethering does not connect (WiFi Hotspot does rather quickly though).

I am using battery moniter widget and at times it shows rather high mv raets, and battery drain corresponding to these events. I manually close apps and occasionally reboot - this seems to control it. I find this a very useful app and it has helped with getting pretty good battery life.

I ignored the high mv rates the other day for a few hours, and the battery lost about 40% in a few hours, so I don't this the battery itself has any issues - it is a matter of what is running in the background.

So far, not paying for the OC with this kernel with significantly higher battery drain. It only gets better from here...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] fcisco13:
Temasek on the n1 forums made a flashable n1 nuclear wipe wich i used when switching roms, maybe someone can see if he is kind enough to make a super kernel wipe that we can flash to wipe cache n dalvik before flashing kernels.

G2X
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jlevy73:
Highly recommend an app called Watchdog (free from the market). This monitors all your apps cpu usage over a given period of time. This is especially useful when trying to find that one rogue app amongst 200. My average battery draw is quite low, so my guess is some app is doing it's own thing

[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
@bdorestant yes!!! thats what ive been trying to tell people when its on the charger it shuts off n u cant turn back on unless u do a battery pull it happened 5 times ive went to a backup lastnight and been fine ever since im 90 % sure its a kernel thing
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kev0153:
Yeah, had that problem too. That and lockscreen freezes or refusing to turn back on. Only a battery pull fixed it. Seemed to stay stable for about an hour then back to its old tricks.

I was having reboots after flashing this kernel to 1.0.4 froyo! Went back to stock for now! I didn't even mess with any settings!

I'm not sure what could have caused that. No reboots here 1.04 +48mb ext 4 kernel under volted to -50.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
yea but see i didnt try the maxmem one the 48+ maybe il try that i tried the one that was up yesterday n i think it still up n yea i didnt really mess with any settings just had it oc'ed to 1100 thats it it sux cuz this is one bad boy of a kernel and i wanna use it daily
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Jboxmods:
Yeah, I noticed that as well... Haven't gone back to stock yet, but also noticed battery drain while on the charger and not charging while powered off. I got some nice quadrant and linpack scores (3568 and 55.117) but am afraid my phone is going to up and fry itself (oc @1.5)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] legioncwe:
Im going to give the EB gb one a shot right now, thanks :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
i never keep mine oc'ed that high thats for showing off in my opinion these phones are fast as it is n of course ur gona heat up oc'ed that high and @moshe22 im gona try ur settings also gona install the maxmem one and for ****s n giggles gonna delete cache n dalvik twice see what happens from there
[T-Mobile LG G2x] CPerkins.RS:
I was having the locking up problem while on the charger on 1.04F. I'm going to try the Maxmem now and see how that does. Other then the lock ups this is a great kernel. Scoring 4000+ on quadrant and 54.4 MFLOPS on linpack
[T-Mobile LG G2x] solrac.dc:

[T-Mobile LG G2x] c19932:
someone mind briefly explaining what MAXMEM? is it simply just that the low memory killer will kill empty apps at a higher memory threshold?

edit: figured it out by actually flashing it. It frees up more ram =)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
yea so moshe22 i tried ur settings even with the new maxmem kernel i get same result on froyo it shuts off and wont turn back on until i do a battery pull only on the charger the its wierd it might be something with the voltages but before i didnt touch voltages i know other people have to be having this happen to them while on charger using the fr kernel it goes into a sleep of death idk guess back to stock eb 1.04

[T-Mobile LG G2x] PlasticChicken:
After 2 whole days of using the ext4 maxmem kernel for EB 1.0.4 Froyo, I have some comments to add. Although most of them are related to pimp my cpu.

Audio will get really buggy if you UV too much.

Force min frequency on screen off didn't work too stable for me.

USB tethering does not work.

Otherwise I'm still running 1.4ghz with very minor hiccups (most of them are probably because I'm trying to UV too much).
[T-Mobile LG G2x] aim1126:
Open pimp my cpu and long press on 1400mhz and select run as Max. To undervolt just press on each frequency and select how much undervolting you want for each. I wouldn't recomment going past -50 at first

Loving the kernel morfic, great work!

Only issue I'm having (and I'm not sure if it's even an issue with the kernel) is that I can't get any settings to apply on boot. PimpMyCPU is creating the script properly in the init.d folder, but the settings either aren't getting applied to the tables or they're getting overwriten after they're applied.

Cpasjuste claims this should be working for our phones since v1.8, so I thought I'd mention it to you and see if you had any thoughts.

Dolphin is doing the same thing your stock browser is doing. On some sites, it just sits there and then loads eventually.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Smallsmx3:
Since there is now cwm support for ext 4 can we go back and forth between ext 3 and 4 or do we still need to flash an ext 4 kernel everytime we update a nightly? Also in one of the latest nightlies there were kernel changes. Do these get overwritten when we flash this kernel?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] MWBehr:
That procedure won't change. You need to flash Trinity afterward so you have a kernel that supports Ext4. The benefit of the new recovery is that you can now make and restore Ext4 backups.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Smallsmx3:
Ok I figured as much but the changes to the cm kernel will be overwritten?
