I am also curious if there will be an update to the decrap rom....but I will certainly be patient for the mod7....many thanks to you cubed!
[LG Revolution] vortmax:
Has anyone hooked up to a corporate Exchange server on this ROM? Any issues? I'm just trying to decided if I want to go here or not...thanks.

Any other major issues to speak of? Any good, non-subjective battery improvements to speak of?

Oh yes, and overclocking would be nice to have ;) I'm sure 1.2-1.4GHz would be a nice boost...
[LG Revolution] Icemans2k02:
No overclocking support yet. However seems to be a boost in memory since lack of bloatware. Battery life is also lifted. I am at 75% battery (extended) at 1:45 with me taking it off the charger at 6:30am. This is with eBay, tapatalk, and texting use. I am pretty regularly on my phone.
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
Updates will come after I release a public build of cm7, since right now my developer phone has cm7 loaded on it, I'm not able to do any dev for the stock ROM.

Custom overclocking kernels will also come after cm7, but I don't think LG actually gave us the correct kernel source for the kernel that ships with our device (*just a hunch, not confirmed-- only slightly validated by some slight changes between dmesg outputs on the actual device and the source's dmesg outputs that would appear if that kernel were used*)

Updates to RevoToolkit and ClockworkMod will come also with cm7, but for now, my entire development focus is on getting cm7 to work first, since it's a BIG step in understanding how the phone works in it's entirety.
[LG Revolution] Torin_93:
First of thank you so much cubed for all of your amazing hard work! I cannot wait for CM7! This is my first android phone so I find this all exciting!

A few things I noticed in decrapified.

My backgrounds wont switch and my orientation wont rotate. Generally a data wipe and re flash helps but the problem seems to happen again.

Anyone else notice this?
[LG Revolution] jphillips.hd88:
Thanks for the update cubed.....i am amazed....
[LG Revolution] thermal_tim:
Torin, Check adw settings.
[LG Revolution] Torin_93:
I dont use adw I use GO

[LG Revolution] thecubed:
Anyone wondering about the newly released OTA should check my post here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16314478&postcount=6

In short, OTA won't work if you're on this ROM, or have clockwork installed.

I'll post back here in a few days when I release Decrapified 2.0 :)
[LG Revolution] newkick:
Thanks, cubed. you're the man.

anyone else having a problem with default app preferences being saved on decrapped 1.1? eg, every time i open a pdf, it asks if i want to use pdf to go or polaris, despite hitting the little checkmark to save my choice, despite these preferences being saved.

not just pdfs, but for any file where you have to make a choice--asks if i want dolphin or stock browser every time, etc etc.
[LG Revolution] Cutterstark:
Error while flashing boot image!

I had the clean ROM working for a while, then I ended up frozen at boot up after the Verizon 4G LTE splash screen. I've tried twice re-installing the clean ROM from ClockworkMod. I've checked the MD5 sums and re-downloaded the file from scratch, but I still get this error at the Restoring boot image step

Error while flashing boot image!

I am able to restore other backups fine, so I don't understand why this worked at one time and does not work now.

[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
Are you using advanced restore?
[LG Revolution] Haro912:
Restore the ROM as the system. I did the same thing yesterday. :(
[LG Revolution] mursepaolo:
oooh what are the new goodies in 2.0?
[LG Revolution] jfarre20:
Could we get Froyobeam in the next release. I really love that Gingerbread TV on/off Animation.

Here is the Froyobeam thread:

[LG Revolution] RegnierD:
I would say no, only because in order for that to work, it needs to be built from source code. We don't have the source for the LG OS, so he couldn't modify the source code to include this mod.

That WOULD have been awesome though.
[LG Revolution] jfarre20:
We do have the source code, its in this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1137672

Around page 4, there is a post with the link to the source code.

Its pretty large at 153.33MB - I think its the source for the entire OS, right? Not just the Kernel.

So, I would imagine this is possible - Please Implement it!
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
No that is not complete source, and from what thecubed said, it doesn't even have full kernel source.
[LG Revolution] RegnierD:
Thank you. :)
[LG Revolution] tylerdurden531:
I noticed that ever since I flashed to the decrappified rom I don't get the little number that appears in the corner of the email or message icons to show how many new emails and messages I have. I don't know if anyone else is having this issue. It's not the most important thing in the world, but I wanted to know if anyone else noticed this on their revo.
[LG Revolution] patsoxfan:
Looks like part of the ROM as mine is the same.
[LG Revolution] Haro912:
You have to turn it on. My phone has it
[LG Revolution] tylerdurden531:
I have both notifications on if that's what you are talking about. Also, on the stock rom I was able to see a 1-line preview of my emails in the notification bar on top, now it just says one new email. I get a preview of my texts, but not email. These settings are already on, unless I am missing something stupid which is entirely possible
[LG Revolution] patsoxfan:
Not seeing where to turn this on. Looked all over.
[LG Revolution] Cutterstark:
I tried using advanced restore, using various combinations of boot from one backup and system from another, but also with no success.

An update: I seem to have better luck when I restore and then wipe both the cache and Dalvik cache, at least that gets a ROM up and working again, but still, invariably the next time I reboot, I'm back to being stuck in a blank screen after the Verizon 4g LTE splash screen, where it vibrates every 10 seconds or so.

I'm also unable to boot the USB from Clockwork, get an error that a file is missing.
[LG Revolution] timothee400:
Revo boot

Thanks for the post.

Since the recent phone update, I am unable to root it again.

If I create the folder on the sd card and put the files in it, how do I boot to that folder to install this rom?

Thanks again
[LG Revolution] gimpcell:
You will not be able to unroot after update. Further explanation in previous posts. Patiently waiting is what we are all doing.
[LG Revolution] mobiusnc:
Thank you!

I just wanted to thank you, thank you, thank you, for your ROM. I received the phone last Thursday and the short battery life (very little use < 8 hours) made me want to curb it. I have no experience "flashing ROMs" or whatever, but your instructions made it simple.

And better yet, since flashing yesterday (also calibrating battery), and taking off charge this morning, I'm at 10+ hours with 31% battery left. That includes a 1 hour phone call. This makes the phone usable to me.

Looking forward to anything you kindly provide in the future.

mobiusnc

ps: not a complaint, but to help you debug, my phone failed to update and rebooted into clockworkmod last night => no alarm in morning. A little extra Sunday sleep is always good...
[LG Revolution] KaneOfMars:
I wish to say thanks as well ... took me a while to get rooted (was unable to do on my Mac, had to take my phone to a friends house and do it on his Windows7 machine).

Once I installed this ROM, huge difference. Love it, love it, love it!

Can't wait for version 2 and good luck with CM7 :)
[LG Revolution] jam510:
Calibrate?

Can you please explain what you mean by this? Very interested in this long of a battery life!
[LG Revolution] smokedkill:
My revolution is currently receiving a software update. It started automatically. I'm not sure what it is yet. Once its done, I'll update.
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
Be careful you will lose root if you update.
[LG Revolution] mursepaolo:
I just got this update. Good thing I pressed back before the countdown ended lol.
[LG Revolution] billney:
I don't think your phone will update if it is rooted...at least mine wouldn't. How do we stop it from trying to update?
[LG Revolution] timothee400:
LOST ROOT

Mine lost root after update. Was not able to catch it.

Will not re-root. Waiting with others for an answer.

Thanks for all the work.
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
It can update if rooted without cwm. If you have cwm it will just reboot into recovery and stay until rebooted.
[LG Revolution] jphillips.hd88:
Yep, thanks, that is exactly what happened.....I guess it updated at sometime, I looked at my screen it was in cwm....I re-booted just fine into ADW...Several seconds a screen popped up and told me my update failed...

Here's my question.....I go into about phone and am trying to remember what the decrap kernel version as opposed to the one that is coming up...mine says......2.6.32.9-perf lg-electronics@area88 #1

Does this sound right? Did it update but just fail to load and sitting there in limbo land?
[LG Revolution] mtmichaelson:
Decrap does not replace the kernel. It will be the same either way.
[LG Revolution] ozymandiaz:
Mine tried to update over the weekend, and booted to recovery, then rebooted telling me it failed, and just did the same thing again tonight. I hope you or cubed get this thing figured out soon, Verizon is starting to annoy me!
[LG Revolution] jtmessimer:
Same thing happened to me...
[LG Revolution] nick99wj:
I'm itching for decrap 2! Mostly to get rid of the stupid update every day AND we're seeing reports of really fast 4G speeds post-update!

Cubed, do you know of a timeframe to see it?

side note: nice work on making some good progress on CM7, closer every day to having a... Revnogen, Cyanolution, Revyanogen, CyanRevoGenLutionMod..? haha
[LG Revolution] KaneOfMars:
Yeah, I'm real curious about the 4G speeds. Someone had reported speeds up to 40Mbps.. is that even possible?
[LG Revolution] mursepaolo:
Is anyone else's phone restarting randomly everyday? Mine has been doing it recently. Sometimes in the middle of a phone call
[LG Revolution] impherring13:
Yes, mine seems to randomly restart at least every day. I'm sure there are several restarts that I just don't notice as well. I'm on decrapped v1.1.

edit: There is even a thread about it - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1210732
[LG Revolution] evanl10:
I froze the "Software update" while the download was still going, after it auto started after a reboot even though i defered 'till later. So far so good. Just leaves the download icon in the status bar.
[LG Revolution] Haro912:
Hey cubed any date for when the new decrapped will come out?
[LG Revolution] mursepaolo:
Let's stop asking? He said he'll keep us updated..
[LG Revolution] ufkal:
^ +1 Agreed.
[LG Revolution] smokedkill:
I personally wouldn't care if De-Crapified 2.0 doesn't get released. I am looking forward to Cyanogen more. I'd rather Cubed focus his efforts there. He is only 1 person. Let other developers pick up DeCrap while he focuses on Cyanogen. The more he works on DeCrap, the less he is able to work on Cyanogen. I guess it all depends on which piece of cake you would rather eat.
[LG Revolution] mursepaolo:
I'd rather have cyan too
[LG Revolution] ozymandiaz:
I'll take whichever he get's done first. :D

If he hits a roadblock on one, and working on the other helps clear his head, then what do we lose that he goes back and forth? I'm waiting anxiously for CM7 too, but decrapped and then revolt have made the phone fantastic, so I'm cool whichever one he gets done first.
[LG Revolution] mursepaolo:
Wtheck is revolt? I've been seeing it on this thread lately.
[LG Revolution] ozymandiaz:
It's mtmichaelson's new rom. It is based off the latest OTA, but keeps root.
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
I'm thinking of letting mtmichaelson take over the 2.2.X roms, while I focus on 2.3.4 (cm7).

For now, decrap2 is going on "semi-permanent" hold, since Revolt Rom is pretty much what decrap2 was going to be :)
[LG Revolution] smokedkill:
This is what I was hoping for. Revolt is a good rom, and does pick up where Decrap left off it seems like to me. I hope a few other developers pick up where Decrap left off and go in a different direction with it.

I started with the Droid Eris and kind of got spoiled by the selection of custom roms (which is my main reason for loving Android, way to go developers, your the reason I love Android, not google).
[LG Revolution] RootThese:
I appreciate it tons too...although I am new to all this...I'm learning quite rapidly thanks to TheCubed and the rest of XDA.
[LG Revolution] majorpay:
Put this in your /System/App directory using root explorer: http://www.filedropper.com/quicksearchbox

Press search -> watch magic happen.
[LG Revolution] Jasbo:
Think we could push Gtalk into this?
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
Ah- I'll add that ASAP.

I thought quick press was a function of the launcher...

Anyway, next version will have a few more fixes: no more LGHome, no more cityID, and voice search/quicksearch will be included.

In regards to the 4g wipe issue... that is..weird. I'll look into it.
[LG Revolution] Mr.Greeen:
Hi guys,

So I followed the directions and my phone is messed up. Not completely bricked as I can still get to restore but it won't actually boot up normally. It gets completely through the LG logo and then I get a black screen that looks like it is turning on and off every 10 sec or so. Any ideas? I am going to try restoring to the stock rom for right now. See how that works and then if I can get it back up and running try loading the de-crapped rom.

I see people have got it working so I am excited to try it out as well.

Thanks
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
Did you wipe the dalvik cache while in recovery?

Some people forget that step (I did while developing the rom), and it can cause all sorts of trouble.

You may need to wipe data also, as sometimes there are strange cross-dependencies between the bloatware/odex files and their related settings in /data.

If you're familiar with ADB, you can run "adb logcat" on your desktop while the phone is booting, and that will give your more information about the problem.

Also-- v1.1 is coming out here by the end of the day, lots of fixes!
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
Double post, ignore...
[LG Revolution] majorpay:
LG has their own version of it to feed Bing. This one was pulled from a non-bingafied 2.2 ROM, and crashes LG Home, but works with any other home.

Edit: LG Home just seems to really like Bing components. I think it would be difficult to separate Bing from this phone without taking LG Home out of the picture.

Edit 2 (and just a suggestion): You might want to recommend people backup their current phone state prior to flashing these.
[LG Revolution] Mr.Greeen:
Yes I did a dalik wipe. What do you mean by wipe data? Is that just wiping the cache partition?
[LG Revolution] majorpay:
A complete data wipe would mean a factory reset/data wipe. It will wipe out any applications you had, etc.
[LG Revolution] Mr.Greeen:
Ok so I did the factory wipe and it fixed the black screen issue. Thanks! Now I have the SIM card issue. I am going to just try leaving the battery and SIM out for a few minutes and see how that works out.
[LG Revolution] OmiDroid:
Worked great! Completely powered off the phone to make sure it took. Had to move some of my backups from my SD card to my PC as well. It was starting to eat up space. LOL

Thx Cubed... :)
[LG Revolution] AndroidCraig:
I tried downloading this and received an unsuccessful download message.
[LG Revolution] majorpay:
I just downloaded it and it went fine. Did you try to download the link? Because the link is to a website where you have to enter a human verification code in order to download.
[LG Revolution] majorpay:
Kindle Request

Cubed:

Not a huge issue, but as you know, people are trying to work on getting Kindle removed from this phone and installed through the market. Have you had anymore insight into this? I tried with your latest ROM, and still no success.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=14757067#post14757067

So far, I have tried renaming the application + odex, removing the reference to both the amazon user and kindle entry in packages.xml, and removing it from packages.list. I've tried removing the com from the data/sys directory as well. I'm out of ideas here. Perhaps the market version of Kindle checks the phone and denies based on what phone it is?? Crazy stuff...
[LG Revolution] Haxcid:
Cubed... I know you are working on removing LGHome and the likes but can you separate them as add back in packages? Sometimes I like using the LGHome.

Create a base 2.2 clean, with the ability to add lghome, weather app etc...

I know its work but it would be appreciated.
[LG Revolution] bwhxeon:
I didn't read anything about this being rooted already?
[LG Revolution] majorpay:
You're not doing a full restore... Just the system, so your phone will stay in whatever state it was in before.
[LG Revolution] Haxcid:
Found a bug... When I browse to the market website it no longer recognizes my LG, only my old phone which I don't own anymore...

Kind of annoying as I prefer to browse market from my PC and push apps to my phone.

Also the process of backing up and restoring the img file took my battery from 65% to 26% in 20minutes...

:::::EDIT:::::

Fixed the market issue. Went into settings and hide my old device, once I did the LG magically appeared.
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
All ROMs I release are rooted. I will clarify the first post, thanks.

As for keeping LGHome, I can make a .zip to add it all back if you want.

On the Kindle front, I haven't tried or checked yet. In fact, I don't think I even fixed the packages.xml issue :)

My priority for the moment is to strip the ROM down as much as possible while maintaining functionality, then once we get that done, work on adding back apps through the market equivalent of the apps (save for LGHome).

I think that if we can strip the LG ROM down to nothing, we can build up easier than just hacking around with a semi-functional ROM.

Status: still looking for where the final remnants of Bing live (search engine default in browser, and default home page).
[LG Revolution] majorpay:
Between that quicksearch.apk I gave you, google voice, and renaming the two bing files + odexes, that fixed everything. Default browser search engine, home, etc... There's no trace of Bing on my phone.

Only problem is, like I said, LG Home doesn't like non-bing stuff. makes it crash a lot..
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
Uploading v1.1 now!

Check post #1 for updates!

EDIT: hmm, my server seems to not be working at the moment. I'll try uploading again here shortly... in the meantime, I'll upload to megaupload or something...

EDIT2: Upload to multiupload @ 60%... heeere it comes!
[LG Revolution] fearsparks:
I had just started downloading 1.0 and saw you were uploading 1.1, Thanks again Cubed!!! Saved me the time of flashing twice. I'll be clicking that donate button when i get paid on the first.
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
New version uploaded! Check Post #1 for download link!

(I'll be moving it to goo-inside.me's server tonight, I just don't have my login information with me at the moment, hence the multiupload link)
[LG Revolution] 3083joe:
awesome work keep it up and thanks so much!
[LG Revolution] njKeever:
Now rocking v1.1 and loving it. Thanks!
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
New mirror added! Should be better than multiupload (although multiupload was fairly painless to use).
[LG Revolution] AndroidCraig:
I am managed to get it downloaded via wifi @ home. Copied it to system /Apps. And no luck. I don't know what I did wrong.
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
Lol, did you use Clockwork to restore the backup?

A little more specifics would be helpful...

"Doctor, doctor! It hurts when I do something!"

"Where?"

"Somewhere!"

"What?"

"Exactly!"

:)
[LG Revolution] majorpay:
so you put it in the system/apps directory and it didn't work? Did you backup both of the bing by renaming them (add .bak to them) along with their associated odexes? All this may not matter now, as the latest release of this nandroid is supposed to fix all this.
[LG Revolution] majorpay:
:eek::eek::eek:

Why? Is it installable and able to be used through the market now?
[LG Revolution] OmiDroid:
It's available via Market. I upgraded it a while back.
[LG Revolution] AndroidCraig:
I uninstalled bing through Titianium Backup as soon as I had this thing rooted. I did put the QuickSearchBox.apk in system/apps.

I don't know if TiB renames or deletes the files.

Considering the trouble I'm having hooking the phone to my pc, I don't know if I can load the recovery and ROM as much as I want to.
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
It's available through the market, as far as I know-- if not, I'll put up the apk so you can install it in /data.

I'm trying to strip this rom down as far as possible in order to speed it up.

Next step: framework and build.prop mods. Time to take control of the android memory manager and a few other speed-increasing mods.

After all this is said and done, I'm going to try my hand at porting some themes over.

Dunno how well that'll go, but at least I'll be able to get rid of that horrible fluorescent blue highlight color and accents.

I think possibly a mod to the pixel density setting is in order also-- seems like things are bigger on this phone's display as compared to the tbolt and other htc phones with the same resolution...
[LG Revolution] majorpay:
How difficult would it be to pull in some CM mods? Of particular interest to me in this case would be the lock screen. It sure would be nice to have a lockscreen with 4 buttons. It would also be nice to have some lockscreen controls (I think I saw an app for pulling a widget on top of any lockscreen).

I'm hoping we don't burn the battery life on this thing no matter what gets implemented as it seems a bit crazy as it is, and the thing takes years to charge! (doesn't help that I use a PC USB to charge it)

Edit: I notice a marked improvement when using the 1amp HTC Charger at my work
[LG Revolution] ozymandiaz:
Thank you for all your work on this phone!

I registered mainly so I could say thank you to Thecubed for all his hard work on getting this mod going, and to majorpay and all the rest who have been so helpful in answering everyone's questions. You guys have been so great with instructions, that I was able to find the solutions to all of my problems installing without having to ask! If you never add another tweak, I think I will enjoy this phone a thousand times more than I did stock with the junk frozen with titanium. And it doesn't sound like you plan on quitting any time soon, so thank you in advance for all the improvements you might make! I love the inclusion of adw launcher, although I decided to keep launcher pro, haven't noticed any issues at all using it with this mod, and all my widgets and apps that I got from market work even smoother and faster than before!

Can't wait to see what you do with the lock screen, I didn't like any of the options that came stock with the phone, so anything should be an improvement!

:D
[LG Revolution] thecubed:
Stock AOSP lockscreen coming soon!

I'm working right now on porting the cm6 framework to our device-- that would let us use cm6 system apps instead of the lg crap.
[LG Revolution] leemsami:
can u go into build prop or something and speed up the charging. I think it can be done.
[LG Revolution] sleepycarl5150:
i'm new to rooting and want to use what you have done here and i downloaded the rom manager for CWM and moved it over to my sd card, buuuut when i went to put the 1.1.zip into the file you said to, i couldn't find it. I tried to use the backup current rom feature on the app and it pulls up something saying choose your phone and then lists a bunch of names, (none the revo) and that is wgere i sit, stuck. any help is appreciated

OK, i just realized I haven't got the CMW for the revo yet.
