no no no DONT buy this phone!! j/k, you will love it, once you overlook its SW faults, which you as a developer should be fine with, since im guessing you see it as a challenge instead of a reason to ***** lol.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] EmceeGeek:
Welcome to the dark side! Hope you enjoy your stay.

LOL =D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Dameon87:
Haha. I look forward to the challenge. Ill be focusing on Cm7 quite a bit, and start helping to get some of these bugs patched up.

I was the head developer who ported cm7 to the epic :)

^(nightmare)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] crazythunder:
amen! the more the merrier. it's been a little slow for the past week or so. i think the buggy gb release is the reason. but the more roms the merrier. welcome aboard.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
Can't wait to have a stable build of CM7 on this phone. I loved it on my Nexus One and I've been missing it. But I think the hardware in this phone creates a lot of potential and should be more than useful my foreseeable mobile phone future lol.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Dameon87:
Yeah the hardware seems to be amazing and definately looking forward to getting a fully stable cm7.

What are the main bugs in current builds?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DebauchedSloth:
The battery driver pretty much needs a rewrite. A2DP is non-functional.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] crazythunder:
random reboots are one of them. on certain roms,ie. eaglesblood, i don't think i had more than 1 or 2 reboots in using it for a week or two. the same rom themed gave me a few reboots a week. i've seen others having same issue on other roms.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Dameon87:
The a2dp is likely related to the driver, and should be able to be figured out relatively easily.

The random reboots seems a bit awkward though. Would be nice if we could get some logcats.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] moshe22:
Welcome on board :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] *Omnipresent*:
Congrats! Got mine on 4/20 and am very satisfied with my purchase.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Dameon87:
Thanks everyone :) I'm looking forward to the phone quite a bit. :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
Currently with CM7, the biggest issue is getting APN's to stick after reboots or coming off wifi. It has gotten much better but it is a weird bug. In Mobile Networks, when you search for networks, it won't connect to any of them. The only option that works is Automatic.

The fix is to select a specific network, let it error out, then do automatic. Once it reconnects to the network... the data connections will pop up.

A2DP I guess is one, but I don't use it. And supposedly the battery drivers is wonky but it was wonky in Stock Froyo.

Overall CM7 has been my daily driver for a while now. I don't have any issues with reboots or anything. You just can't go by the battery% because some nights it'll say 39% then it will be dead in the water next time I look at it. I don't have random reboots. I even tested it by not feeding my flashcrack addiction and made sure to put it on a charge "when I thought it needed it" and I've been up for 5 days.

The hardware of the phone is pretty solid. No major issues other then weak software/drivers. The official Gingerbread is closing in which hopefully brings a new kernel and baseland update. Tmobile has stopped selling the current G2x because I think it is flushing out it's current stock of 2.2 in anticipation for the 2.3.3 varieties.

I think if the phone spent a little more time in the oven and just released with Gingerbread, these forums would be a much happier place. Personally I'm glad it released when it did so we could start crackin' at it and have something to play with.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Dameon87:
Hmm I see a few different issues there. But I have a feeling I can get the APN bit patched up when I get the phone. I already have a few ideas on where to go with that. It sounds like a bit of a RIL problem to me, so I should be able to get that knocked out relatively easily.

Battery % will likely be a problem until the GB update is released, as it's likely a kernel/driver related issue.

And I agree. I don't care if a phone has a few problems upon release. Noone can be perfect, and internal testing is NOT a perfect indication of regular real world use. People need to understand that no matter how much testing gets done, it is still going to have an issue here and there.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] VisedMonk:
Welcome. A couple of my buddies have an Epic, so I'm somewhat familiar w/ your quality work. And I dig cm7, so it will be great to have someone with your talent level workin' on that...

Battery driver issues

I think the battery driver issue itself is being considered as random reboot issue. Coz people tend to assume looking at the % that they have sufficient battery but in the background, it ain't. That might be one reason. But from what i observed in mine, it dies completely rather than reboot(but people tend to use this word more often than when actually it is a restart of the phone by itself). But u know what, to get to know how much percent is actually left in ur phone..... just plug it in the charger and remove it, the percentage refreshes.... :). I Wish it refreshes with just the cable being plugged in rather than putting it in the socket :P.

Btwn.. Good to see a dev interested to address issues! Thanks!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Suprah:
Oh happy day. Im, sure you will help bring out the full potential of this glorious device combined with other devs like morific, krylon, faux and team douche. The welcome! When will you be getting the device?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] asapelectric:
Welcome, Dameon! Folks, Dameon was a critical dev in the Epic forums. I absolutely look forward to his work! :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Dameon87:
I get my device on Tuesday :)

Ill definately be getting to work on getting what I can fixed. The problem with battery % is either driver related or framework related, (could be a polling problem).

Or a combination of the 2. The reboot issue sounds like a classic problem and is likely a driver issue as everyone believes.

But yeah, I get my g2x Tuesday by 3pm EST.

Also, thank you everyone for the warm welcome!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] smashpunks:
Sweeeeeeeeeeeet. Can't wait to have you here. I'm all for extra devs on such a great phone.....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
Mine used to be pretty accurate until I screwed my phone up completely. It for to the point with me messing with it that it wouldn't even display the LG logo. I flashed some other bootloader from a tegra tablet and flashed back to our latest CWM to finally get it working again.

I probably need to clear battery stats and let it die completely and give it a good charge.

Seemed to really help before.

No, we can't.

You're wrong. For example, wildfire, hero, G1, - all of this phones are better than X8 and are no so expensive (offcourse excluding G1). There running Android same like our phone.

[Galaxy S II General] wickedjoey:
Will we be unable to do HDMI out and use a controller since they use the same ports?
[Galaxy S II General] Xero Xenith:
HDMI out is MHL; controllers are USB OTG. I believe it's a hardware limitation that the two can't be used together, unfortunately. But nothing stopping you from using a wireless one (if there's one that works). :)
[Galaxy S II General] wickedjoey:
Yes that's what I meant with this only apply to GSII. I guess only a bluetooth controller would work though.
[Galaxy S II General] aejt:
I think that the MHL-adapter will have an micro-USB port on it. It looks like it will on these pictures as well:

But I don't really have any reliable source to that.
[Galaxy S II General] Nivekius:
The Micro USB port on the side of the adapter lets you charge your phone while in use.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] jason600:
Is it possible to do a nandroid restore through ADB, terminal or anything else?

I've got some serious issues with my milestone, which re-flashing doesn't fix. I'm hoping that a doing a nandroid restore will fix this for me.

I can't access recovery at all at the moment, trying to locks up the phone, making it apparently dead, no logo, no nothing. Pulling the battery for 5 days, gets it going again.

I'm currently using the GOT 2.2 (it's the only one I could actually get to boot) and its rooted with SuperOneClick.

Any and all help greatly appreciated.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Caz666:
Yes, you can use the fastboot utility (in the sdk) to flash individual partitions. Depending on which nandroid version your backup was made with, it should work.

But why bother? Just use rsd to flash you phone back to stock. Test everything out and then rsd the vulnerable recovery again in order to get OR and custom roms.

Otherwise you will be testing and troubleshooting until the cows come home...
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] jason600:
Thanks for the info, I'll try that tomorrow.

As the the reason why, I've already tried to flash back to stock through rsd, and reflash the bootloader, and the vulnerable recovery, yet the problem persists.

Thanks again for your help.

Check first post.
[Droid X General] Jubakuba:
So I was looking around some forum and found a droid x bootanimation with sound.

I pushed the mp3 file (maybe the bootanimation.zip navigated to the .mp3? I don't want that bootanimation though) and it doesn't appear to have done anything.

So I tried some other methods:

In terminal emulator...

I ran allinone

under boot properties I found a boot sound enabler.

It says it enables bootup.ogg from system/media/audio or something.

Whatever it was...I pulled the droid.ogg

Renamed it to bootup.ogg and pushed it to the correct area.

Rebooting doesn't appear to give me any sound.

Sad day.

Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

I then found some bootanimation file that supposedly links your Droid X to play a boot sound. I pushed that after making a hasty backup of the original. Then realized the file wasn't for gingerbread...and repushed the original back (I think I may have deleted the original and pushed the same file back again). After this step I have no bootanimation.

Does anyone have the stock bootanimation file from system/bin and can you upload?

Since my bootanimation is broken...this last try may be a futile attempt.

But just now I used this

http://www.droidxforums.com/forum/dr...tml#post266035

as a reference

Unzipped the default liberty bootanimation.zip and edited desc.txt by adding a "s droid.ogg" line.

Rezipped (the proper way without compression).

No go.

Then used liberty toolbox to try and flash the original liberty bootanimation.zip back (in case jrummy is using some method I'm not, rather than pushing it there myself) and I'm still without a bootanimation.

I'm sure I can fix the missing bootanimation eventually...

But the bootanimation file from system/bin would be nice if you have it handy.

Or if you know what else I can do to restore it.

But mainly...any idea how to get sound working?!

I'm going to bed at the moment...too tired and I work tonight.

Thanks in advance!

P.S.

I know there is an SD notification that many are confusing with the bootup sound. This just seems to be an alternative that should keep the "drrrooooiiid" sound as default...if my thinking is correct.
[Defy General] Evil Slayer:
hello all

just have a question

can i restore a different rom from the one i have installed and keep the languages from the one were installed

back when i had motorola l7e when i flash a new rom i had the ability choose the files you want to flash and exclude the GG3 or GG7(im not sure of the number)which were the language to keep your languages from your older one and i think i saw that there were options when i use advanced restoring when restoring a nandroid backup in my moto defy(i don't have the custom recovery installed now..and i cant in this time install it) so is it possible to exclude the languages part to keep my languages??because i want to flash orange 2.3 or the prays rom

thanx in advance

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] jeditidus:
I think this is nothing to do with the phone, but more to do with the emulator.

The author took it off the market to fix some problems with it. Hopefully it will come back more smoother, faster and compatible.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] soraxd:
thats not true, the developer was forcefully removed, however he along with many other developers who have been forcefully removed have moved over to "Slide ME" app market, a 3rd party market, which is becoming a very awesome place. he has made n64oid, along with all of his other removed emulators (nes, snes, atari, sega, gameboy, gameboy advance) and made them all free, so be sure to check it out

are you on the most recent n64oid? he has updated it on Slide ME market, download the most recent version
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Twomorecharacters:
He's heavily working on an improved version that he first said should have been done by the end of may, so any day now. It's gonna make games compatibility a lot better.

For Mario Kart use Sensor as Analog stick, and have Controls layout to "Top + Bottom"

this allows you to steer by moving the phone and gives you the Z (fire button) on the left, and A+B (accel, break) on the right.

How much have you played? I'm still inside the Deku tree and it's crashed maybe 3-4 times total :confused: It only seems to happen upon loading new areas, and it's completely random at that. Not an issue if you save very often. Majora's Mask is damn near unplayable though.

What's the changelog for the updated n64oid from slideme since the last update from the emulator nazi (android market) I haven't noticed any improvements :( I paid 6 dollars for the app
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Twomorecharacters:
I don't think n64oid was ever updated when it was put up on slideme though? I'm sure it was v1.1.4 I got off the internet while yongzh had the app pulled from the market while his other emulators were still up.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mljjlm:
Not very far actually.. played for an hour and maybe a half...
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] fleehouse2:
Yeah we are still waiting for the big update, the mov to slideme was in preparation for the release of the next version apparently
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Twomorecharacters:
I hope it's coming soon. If the game compatibility becomes that much better I'd definitely buy it if he puts a price on it.

I know there's been lots of talk about how he allegedly uses open source code for his emulators and then charges for it without permission, but as this is the only n64 emulator available I don't care at all.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] xopher.hunter:
Personally I still am fine with my six dollars going to yongzh and am sad that his expertise in emualtors is now unwelcomed by google on its market. And my 4 dollars for his gba emulator too I hope he distributes his new n64oid release via email first to all that paid for it and then publish to slideme.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Fysi:
Well I don't think El Goog care about his expertise when they get a request to remove apps from the market. n64oid was removed due to a lot of the code being taken from mupen64 and them filing a request. That PSX emulator was taken down because it was breaching trademark.

Don't want to sound like a ****, but good riddance to be honest. If you are gonna use other peoples code, at least credit them.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] almaqdad:
Checkout N64oid v2.0.1 is released.

*Changes*:

v2.0.1

- Fixed depth issue on Galaxy S2

- Changed app icon

Here:- http://slideme.org/application/n64oid
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] aHadar:
N64oid appears according to commenters to be a crapshoot.It might work like a charm or might crash everytime.Yongzh hasn't shown a lot of haste to update his software in the marketplace so until he fixes most of the glitches and crashes I'd keep my 4$ in my pocket.Already paid once for half baked buggy software, 4$ is a good eats.

His pages on Slideeme now appear to give full credit(and maybe %) to the original coders.Step up I say.
