The logcat program takes all internal messages and outputs them to a log file. There is even an app that lets you watch the dmesg and logcat output as your phone boots up, which will give you first place in any geek-off! ;)

To start logcat from the phone, open Terminal Emulator, and type in:

su

logcat > /sdcard/logfile.txt

When you are ready to turn off logcat, it's control+c, so for the Optimus V, that's hold volume_down button and press the letter c on the onscreen keyboard.

Once it's run, you can upload the results to pastebin, then post the link to the pastebin page.

Just finished compiling tonites build, testing now, will post within the hour, look for the link on my first post.
[Optimus V Android Development] bigsupersquid:
this is actually the first cm7-based rom I've tested which doesn't randomly black out my screen after using the 'phone. back when I was getting that issue (mostly with the aospCM7 rom,) pressing the power button a few times would usually bring the screen back up.

it's not the same issue as the display drivers, with those not working you never get any display past the silver LG logo.

I'll mention posting here on the AC thread, if the user is still reading it now that their phone works with IHO :p

I must say, when I was reading your early comments back in the aospcm thread, I had no idea you were such a motivated dev as the evidence currently shows.

Nice work with this port, and I'm sure many many people appreciate your diligence keeping up with the bug reports and pseudo-reports.
[Optimus V Android Development] eollie:
blarf would it be possible to change the location of the apply /sdcard/update.zip from the install zip from sdcard option menu?

I remember on my dx that selecting that was a bad idea and I almost clicked on that by mistake tonight. Not sure if its still a bad idea but just incase.
[Optimus V Android Development] DustbinK:
I prefer GO, Zeam, and ADW Ex ( and only ex) for the right mix of speed and features. Zeam is the though but lacks in customization. That's just my views though. I'm not saying this is fact
[Optimus V Android Development] blarfiejandro:
It shouldn't be too bad if you don't have an update.zip. That said, in the later CWM recoveries (IHO included) choose zip is the first option.
[Optimus V Android Development] Raul027:
I guess that the proximity sensor must have glitch up because when the screen had turned black everything seemed to still work just that it was black
[Optimus V Android Development] eollie:
Ok I had the same issue. Just updated to the 8/10 and no boot sound.

Here is how to fix it.

Make sure you are mounting in r/w mode on each of these steps.

Using a app like root explorer, goto /system/bin and delete the file bootsound.

Back out to /system now open build.prop in text editor mode, look for this text.

ro.config.play.bootsound=1

Delete it from the build.prop and save and exit.

This is optional but recommened.

Reboot phone.

Verify no sound is playing.

Now run the script again and reboot.

You should have a boot sound again.

Bug for New Screen in Optimus V

With the help of bigsupersquid, I was able to fix a problem I was having with IHO (and many other roms) on my new phone, he recommended I post here in case anyone runs into this in the future.

Long story short: IHO installed perfectly (I assume) except for the screen, which was black. The IHO audio blurb played loud and clear, but there was nothing on the screen after the silver LG logo. I had similar problems with other ROMs and even with cwm recovery, so I needed to use xionia's recovery which had a fix for new screen in the Optimus S (apparently they might be trickling into the V now as well).

To fix the problem, I flashed IHO then I flashed Drew's xionia redux (and then gapps and a key-switch fix for the V). (sorry for the lack of links, apparently I'm not allowed)

So, let me know if you need other details for a bug-fix thing, but for now, if any one else has odd blank screen issues, you probably just need to use a xionia kernel 013 or later, drew's redux works well and is more up-to-date, you just need the key-switch fix.
[Optimus V Android Development] JerryScript:
@ndaman: Thanks for letting us know about your black-screen issues. Looks like we will have to see what xionia does about it.

Maybe once development slows down we could look into it. For now, it would be a nightmare attempting to keep things synced at the rate we publish new builds.

We do nothing to the market app or other Google apps, we just post the collection. Once you flash gapps and reboot and sign in to Google accounts, they are automatically updated. Not sure why some people get the new market and others don't, but Google has always seemed to spread out updates over time.
[Optimus V Android Development] Hyeagley:
Any idea my speaker phone button mutes phone during a call? I hit the button then go to adjust the volume and it mutes my voice and I can't hear other person? Its not a big deal of no one knows I can live with out it
[Optimus V Android Development] Hyeagley:
That's so strange I just flashed back to the stock rom go to market no sprint section. Load CM7 and bam sprint section with sprint apps in market so weird!
[Optimus V Android Development] blarfiejandro:
Yeah I left it set to tell Google to show us the Sprint apps, just in case. Easy enough to change if none of them work with Virgin.
[Optimus V Android Development] sonicphobia:
Hey, Blarfie, thanks for all your efforts!

Wanted to let you know both wiki links on the OP are broken. They start off "http://https://"
[Optimus V Android Development] bleichtman:
Keep getting a domain not found when clicking on latest roms link.
[Optimus V Android Development] sonicphobia:
Remove "http://" from the beginning of link
[Optimus V Android Development] Whyzor:
They're working for me, just a single http:// and https:// Did you change something with your browser recently? I'm running latest Firefox 6 beta.

Also just tried mrg666's & Jerry's build links to mediafire, both worked. Probably something wrong with your connection to those sites.
[Optimus V Android Development] blarfiejandro:
Interesting. I'm not seeing that at all.
[Optimus V Android Development] sonicphobia:
The xda forum app must be adding the http:// ?
[Optimus V Android Development] Hyeagley:
Oh ok thank you I like it just wondering the process behind it your work is amazing!
[Optimus V Android Development] eollie:
This is probably the problem.

Try copy pasting the link to your browser.
[Optimus V Android Development] blarfiejandro:
Easier said than done.
[Optimus V Android Development] eollie:
Is anybody else able to install them?

I dont see them via my phone.
[Optimus V Android Development] sonicphobia:
There isn't a way to copy the URL from XDA app. It doesn't matter to me though, I just delete the leading http:// off the URL once I'm in the browser, or use my bookmark ;)
[Optimus V Android Development] blarfiejandro:
I updated the OP to use http links. Blame it on Github forcing https by default when many of the tools that use Github are not HTTPS ready. SIGH.
[Optimus V Android Development] DeerSteak:
Just to check it out, I tried installing the stock Gingerbread from here on my phone, which is running mrg666's 8/10 build and the "semi-official" IHO recovery 4.x.whatever. I get an error:

-- Installing: /sdcard/CM7GBStockLauncher.zip
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Installing update...
E:Error in /sdcard/CM7GBStockLauncher.zip
(Status 0)
Installation aborted.

I thought maybe I had a bad download (although it opens and extracts using 7zip) so I redownloaded and re-copied to the SD card. Same thing. Any ideas?
[Optimus V Android Development] blarfiejandro:
No idea. That's not something I released, and I may just remove it from the wiki for the time being.
[Optimus V Android Development] DeerSteak:
I found that if I just grabbed the APK out of the ZIP and put it on the SD card, i can try to install but it fails. Meh. Probably better to yank it if it's going to fail to install from the ZIP though.
[Optimus V Android Development] eollie:
I think Jerry posted it there. Not 100% sure of that tho.

People are wanting the stock Launcher instead of ADW.

Is this something you are putting in?

Let me clarify, are you adding adw to the rom or is the people building them doing it?
[Optimus V Android Development] Kolma:
With the 8-10-11 update you removed the one theme i used... cyanbread D: i loved having everything blue

*edit

couple apps run atad slower.. such as fruit ninja free, and some games don't work at all

Cut the Rope instantly FC's
[Optimus V Android Development] crpeck:
If you click on wiki history you'll see that someone called "Centinel" posted it, and, they "Centinel started watching inferiorhumanorgans/android_device_lge_thunderc about 7 hours ago". They also did some edits to the wiki page...

I just created an account on github and added a line in the wiki just before this indicating that there is an issue with the CM7 Stock GBLauncher...
[Optimus V Android Development] crpeck:
Oh - I've been trying to get my hands on a good stock GB launcher for awhile now, everyone I've tried either would fail on the install, or, when I click on the apps menu it was all messed up (like it was formatted for a different screen size).
[Optimus V Android Development] blarfiejandro:
Centinel will be cleaning up the wiki a bit. I'll look into building the stock launcher.

Edit: CM uses ADW by default and it looks like neither of the launchers have GB branches so getting the stock AOSP launcher will take more work than I'm interested in putting in to switch or offer an alternative. For now ADW is truly what's stock.
[Optimus V Android Development] Raul027:
That would be awesome. Im wondering though if that 3d effect when scrolling through apps would appear just like on hdpi devices.
[Optimus V Android Development] punkmaxx:
Here is a temporary fix for you..... attached is the stock launcher pulled from aospROM 6/01.

I tried it on the 08/10 build of BACKrom and works fine for me...(scroll between screens is almost too fast...)

1. copy to SD

2. install normally from a file manager

or

adb install Launcher.apk
[Optimus V Android Development] bleichtman:
There seems to be a decent stock launcher in the market
[Optimus V Android Development] eollie:
I was just guessing. I seen Jerry post it for somebody else and didnt look at the link. However while writing this I looked and seen it was posted at AC and not here. And Jerry's link is a mediafire link.

I have not been able to get a stock launcher to load period. dunno why but they always fail.
[Optimus V Android Development] eollie:
I dont use the stock launcher so it doesnt matter to me. I was just saying what I keep hearing people complain about. hell most people would complain if they were hung with a new rope.
[Optimus V Android Development] 1cewolf:
Yep! Writing technical manuals is part of my responsibilities IRL and I'd like to help IHO reach users of all skill levels :)
[Optimus V Android Development] Raul027:
I believe you have to replace the update-binary file located in /Meta-inf/com/google/android/update-binary from the the rom you are using
[Optimus V Android Development] punkmaxx:
been having trouble with data2ext in last build....is ext fs still enabled in kernel?

EDIT: same problem w/ link2sd and ext partitions
[Optimus V Android Development] eollie:
It worked for me. However when trying to use link2sd it said I had a ext3 partition and blarf says the default is ext4.
[Optimus V Android Development] blarfiejandro:
For the second partition (/sd-ext) recovery .2 will only mount ext4 (I hope), and recovery .3 should mount whatever... but both will default to *creating* only ext4 partitions.
[Optimus V Android Development] punkmaxx:
okay thanks ill wipe clean and try again...
[Optimus V Android Development] El Schisne:
So on goo-inside.me, which as far as I know is a fairly "official" channel for acquiring gapps, there's a "20110729" version listed. I flashed it on top of mrg's 8/10 build just now, and the only changes I can find so far are:

1. Gtalk 1.3 is included, and voice chat is enabled.

2. CarHomeLauncher.apk (which just lists Car Home in the drawer) is gone; you have to either launch Car Home through Bluetooth or find the apk somewhere. Or get one of those fancy docks, if one is even available for the OV.

Anyone else know anything else about these, or why they're not listed on the CM7 wiki? Should 20110729 be the version linked to on the IHO wiki?
[Optimus V Android Development] greyspot:
I extracted and tried installing the livewallpaperspicker.apk from the old build but it just says "was not installed." Any help?

I wish the IHO builds was more centralized. Just going with Jerry's since his name was on top of the list to be honest. I'd like to stay with one builder. Having all 4 builders updating at different times and with different things is somewhat confusing. I had to search through several pages to find where Jerry said the wallpaperpicker was accidentally left out, after I had stumbled upon it myself.

Not to sound unthankful or anything. I mean, this ROM is way faster than the AOSP I was using, with no major bugs! Thanks for all the hard work!
[Optimus V Android Development] eollie:
I think jerry posted the apk at android central. Dont quote me or hold me to it Ive been wrong about five times today.
[Optimus V Android Development] PancakeShake:
I'm on mrg666's 8/10 rom installed and I'm living it by noticing a pretty fast drain? Like half a day with 3g?
[Optimus V Android Development] eollie:
Im on .3 so I guess it was just link2sd being retarded.

I kinda figured it was the app not the partition tho.

Im impatient and using those apps was going to take too long.

So I reformatted flashed IHO and gapps again and ran the data2ext commands and flashed the zip.

I finally figured out this evening why I have problems when updating. TO embarrassed to say but simple mistake created a major problem. Glad to have it figured out now.
[Optimus V Android Development] wilberfan:
I've been wondering the same thing... :-/
[Optimus V Android Development] greyspot:
Okay, so I got impatient.

Here is a modified 8-10 build with the livewallpaperpicker included. I didn't want to make two zips, so I also added the cyanbread theme back from the older build. You can delete it if you wish.

Flashed and working.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5530592/droid/BACKside-IHO-VM670-08102011-LiveWallpaperFix.zip

I will leave this up here until it is no longer useful. (Jerry releases a new build.)

Give me a "thanks" if you found this helpful.
[Optimus V Android Development] BobZhome:
I have new build https://github.com/inferiorhumanorgans/android_device_lge_thunderc/wiki/Binary

Changelog

Please don't thank me, instead donate to Blarf for all the great work he has done.

Enjoy!
[Optimus V Android Development] Raul027:
Does this build also contain the previous features such as the V6 supercharger script
[Optimus V Android Development] Ventrue05:
does anyone have problems while useing a headset/mic with this phone? people can barely hear me and i can barely hear me.
[Optimus V Android Development] wilberfan:
This had the longest initial boot of any ROM I've ever flashed: 8+ minutes. Is that normal?? :eek:

[Edit] Well, the 2nd boot took only 80 seconds, so I guess all is well. Still... 8-plus minutes seems like a LOT!
[Optimus V Android Development] blarfiejandro:
That will depend greatly on the apps you've got installed. With the latest CM changes I get to the lockscreen in around a minute.
[Optimus V Android Development] JerryScript:
For those running BACKside 0810 that want livewallpapers, I apologize for removing the wrong file (livewallpapers.apk vs livewallpaperpicker.apk at 3am they look alike). Next build it will be back, for now, here is a flashable zip to fix it:

http://www.mediafire.com/?5x7u2x17tryomfu

Since IHO is staying as close to CM7 as possible, we recommend the official CM7 gapps. Of course, feel free to flash whatever version you like, just be sure it's for mdpi phones!

Headset mic issues are a known bug, please consult the bug list linked to on the wiki.
[Optimus V Android Development] blarfiejandro:
I agree, but that's a decision left up to the guys making the four different ROMs. I'd encourage the authors to put up a short description of the differences between their ROMs on the wiki. Maybe a v. short changelog for each version too?

Yeah. I don't use any of the partitioning gunk, it seems more trouble than it's worth IMO... and as such I ignore most of the problems or quirks. If someone using these scripts can come up with what, if anything, needs to be changed on the IHO side of things I'd be happy to look into making the changes... but so far nobody's come up with any concrete suggestions, so.

Give it a couple of days to stabilize. Seriously.

In general the CDMA radio is the one that we've got the least control over (and something where Qualcomm, the folks who made the CPU in these phones, has a number of important patents regarding power saving methods — so I'd be inclined to believe that they got it right). I've seen significantly higher power draw with 3G than with WiFi on my phone pretty consistently, and I know that's a big problem with my friend's Triumph too.

In general make sure you're using as few push notifications as possible and turn off background data sync, etc, etc.
[Optimus V Android Development] blarfiejandro:
Yes/no. I did verify that the internal mic is turned off when a wired headset is being used. The gain may need to be adjusted for the external mic tho. Sounds like bluetooth mic volume is okay?
[Optimus V Android Development] blarfiejandro:
Is V6 Supercharger making a difference? If so, what settings are you using?
[Optimus V Android Development] Kolma:
ah good both blarfie and jerry are here

Is if from the source or jerry's build that broke some apps?

such examples are angry birds runs slower, and fruit ninja is insanely slow

more importantly

cut the rope instantly FC's (my gf is disapointed she can't play it anymore on my cell)
[Optimus V Android Development] blarfiejandro:
I've yet to break anything in my builds, so there's that. I'd consider doing a full wipe and restoring apps via Titanium Backup.
[Optimus V Android Development] rb64:
and maybe check if your overclock settings haven't been reset.
[Optimus V Android Development] JerryScript:
I use Angry Birds in my test suite after flashing each new build, it starts up instantly, and is through the loading screen and the play button appears in less than 15 seconds. Game play only lags when an ad is being pushed. I don't have Fruit Ninja, but I just tested Fruit Slice after reading your post, and it works fine.

Things to check:

-overclock settings for games should be 700+ for best results

-wipe cache/dalvik if upgrading from a previous build

-format cache, boot, system, and data if installing from another ROM

-reboot phone and let it load up completely (wait at least 5 minutes), then retest

-if all else fails, do a complete wipe/format (after backing up) and re-install

note-always be sure you don't restore system apps or data after a ROM install!

If your problem persists, we can look at a logcat, but so far your's is the only report like this.
[Optimus V Android Development] JerryScript:
I've tried 8, 11, and 12. To be honest, I don't see that significant of an improvement with my usage.
[Optimus V Android Development] Kolma:
i was previously on yout 08/08 build and it worked fine then on non overclocked.

wiped cahce and dalvik before 08/10 (like i do every update) and tried game under multiple situations (first boot, reboot, idle phone after awhile)

as i was typing this i finally got game to work, moved it to Phone (still didnt work) and moved back to SD with my cpu at 320/748 (was at this setting when i tried running off phone)

ANYWAYS, problem solved itself randomly... very weird but yay nonetheless.

Will keep phone overclocked so long as it doesn't totally destroy battery life.

Thanks for the great rom btw (know i have said this before but it really is good) will donate once im not stuck in a rut

*edit

game works but force close/wait message pops up after about 5 levels, or if i decide to go to menu, waiting just keeps app frozen abit more only for the message to pop up again. doesn't save progress when this happens either, oh well.
[Optimus V Android Development] pbailey212:
Go to phone settings/applications clear data, if you don't want to lose your spot on the game, back it up with Ti or my backup root first, and after you clear data, go to restore data for the game on the back up program you used, if that doesn't work uninstall and reinstall and restore data with backup program
[Optimus V Android Development] punkmaxx:
just played the first 30 levels of angry birds rio and the first 60 levels of cut the rope with no problems at all. i am running 08/10 and i have overclock set to 320-748 w/ on demand Gov. no lag, no waiting, no issues.
[Optimus V Android Development] bleichtman:
Trying to get a transparent status bar using the latest rom and go launcher. Works when switching to adw, but not go launcher. There are no live wallpapers to use the launcher pro fix. Any ideas?
[Optimus V Android Development] pbailey212:
Go launcher doesn't support transparent notification bars, I don't think launcher pro does either
[Optimus V Android Development] bleichtman:
Launcher pro does using a live wallpaper app from the market. Is there an apk to reinstall live wallpapers?
[Optimus V Android Development] bleichtman:
Figured it out. Titanium backup had the live wallpaper picker in it.
[Optimus V Android Development] Hyeagley:
When I try and register for updates through update server it says registration failed.... any ideas?
[Optimus V Android Development] eollie:
Correct me if Im wrong but isnt gapps "regulated" by google? That is how they keep Cm team from including them with their roms is claiming licensing issues. As far as I know you can edit official google apps and that is what is in the gapps zip correct?

So as long as they are listed as official gapps it wouldnt matter then correct? Google surely would slap down a unofficial download of their gapps.

_______

After reading the description on the goo.me site it appears the gapps listed for july includes the new gtalk which will not work on our device so that solves that.

Also looking at the CM site it says they only install apps that are not available from the market and that is what pacman is.

I understand trying to stick close to CM as much as possible. I did not think the gapps was modified by CM seeing as the reason they cant preinstall them is a DMCA issue with Google. And reading the explanation on their site confirms this in that they include a seperate download of official apps minus market available apps.
[Optimus V Android Development] El Schisne:
No, that description is old and just hasn't been updated (I read it in June originally). As I mentioned earlier, I am running the 20110729 gapps right now, and I assure you that Talk 1.3 is included and working in 20110729. Voice chat is enabled; video isn't, presumably because our phone lacks a front-facing camera.
