A little late but HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone. (Got soooo wasted last night :-P )
[Optimus V Android Development] leolawliet:
I'm still wasted :D
[Optimus V Android Development] leolawliet:
Just wondering.. does Zdune's ICS status bar layout patch work with IHO roms? I know it works for deodexed roms, and that's exactly what we have, right?
[Optimus V Android Development] BobZhome:
I have new build https://github.com/inferiorhumanorgans/android_device_lge_thunderc/wiki/Binary

Changelog

1-1-12:

sync'd up with CM

Added: Center Clock tweaks by JerryScript

Tweak: Headset microphone fix by thekarven

Kernel v3.6: Tweak: Headset microphone fix & Added: Two way call recording

Note: There are a bunch of call recording apps on the market, but I like this one: CallRecorder.1.0.41.Android.apk It's easy to use, with a bunch of useful features.

Please don't thank me, instead donate to Blarf for all the great work he has done. Special thanks to Jerry, mrg666, thekarven, and all the others that have help to improve this project.

Happy New Year!

Bob

Warning- there is a bug preventing the video camera from working, will have a fix up within a couple of days, stick with the 12212011 build for now if a working video camera is a must.

First new build of 2012 BACKside is up:

BACKside-IHO-VM670-01022012.zip

md5sum 69b3dda62803304c7968e35117854927

GreenMachineTheme-01022012.zip

Changes:

-Synced with CM7.2, New LGEQualcomRIL added for better telephony support, beginings of face-detection in place in camera app (don't know if it will be implemented on CM7 or not), had to revert another CM camera commit to prevent borking it on the OV

-Switched to BobZhome's newest kernel, implements rb64's find for two-way recording in phone calls

Thanks Bob & rb64!

-Changed holiday egg to Android Baby New Year

-Added thekraven's headset mic fix, needs testing

-Added an option to change the notification dropdown's background color, choices are:

--Theme (default) --Custom Color (argb colorwheel) --Transparent (fully transparent)

Note- you can use Notification Restart from the Market to have changes take effect without rebooting. ;)

Testing needed to see how it affects various types of themes.

Next up in the never ending effort to add all theming options to the ROM, I will add the ability to change the notification dropdown category title's background color, notification item's color, and text colors. I would have waited to put up the entire notification dropdown customization package at once, but the notification dropdown background took two weeks of debugging (holidays took alot of time too ;) ). I wanted to get this build out with the new two-way recording support, so the rest of the customization package will be in the next build.

Thanks to Blarf, BobZhome, mrg666, LeslieAnn, rb64, thekraven, Whyzor, bigsupersquid, kermikalelite, the CM team, the AOSP team, and a ton of other people (really, the list goes on and on)!

Happy New Year Everyone!

There have been versions of the GreenMachineTheme posted with each build but the last one, UOT Kitchen is down and the maintainer is out to sea. I'm using the posted one with the 0703 rom build, and it shows Virgin Mobile for the carrier name, strange that you're seeing GreenMachine as the carrier name?

No problem!
[Optimus V Android Development] El Schisne:
Just installed the 7/30 build.

Bluetooth audio is working! I left a voicemail for myself, and I tested it with a friend listening specifically for quality. The audio is definitely good enough to be usable. I can't even say with authority whether or not quality is any worse than the stock ROM's, which is excellent. The max volume is even louder than it was on stock. It made me so happy, I finally donated. You're my hero, blarf!

Now, up to this point, I've had my phone overclocked to 806 MHz, but with this latest build that causes the phone to restart when using the camera. The camera plays nicely at 787 MHz, though. Sucker's still overclocked to like 131%, so I can't complain. :p

GPS still locks a bit more slowly than stock ROM, but it does lock. Again, no complaints, but that could be something to look into in the future.

Unfortunately I got a little lost when jumping ship from aosp's 2.3 build. I ended up flashing the Ath3ros CM 7.1 which I understand was originally for the Optimus S and ported to the V (which isn't too bad by the way). Since I have been kind of busy I just discovered this thread. Would it be safe to flash JerryScript's 7/30 build as an update or do I need to do a clean wipe to flash to this?
[Optimus V Android Development] YouArePoop:
Just tried to play apparatus, crashes immediately.
[Optimus V Android Development] JerryScript:
Best to do a clean wipe, the S port has a different kernel.
[Optimus V Android Development] BobZhome:
Here is a link to my build for the VM670: http://www.mediafire.com/?la57t68rhktili8

It's the same as Jerry's 7/30 build with the following changes:

1) Updated CM with dBm fixed

2) Added Darktremor Apps2SD version 2.7.5.2

3) Orginal CM7 bootanimation

4) New ringtone added: "Somebody's Out There"

All credit goes to Blarf(the Dev)...please donate to his beer fund!

Strange, the eri.xml file should be overwritten with a new flash. Next update, try formatting system and see if that gets rid of it.

[Optimus V Android Development] El Schisne:
Hey, question on USB tethering on OS X. I tried it out today, and before I plugged it in, there was already a network interface listed as "LG Optimus V." When I activated USB tethering on the phone, immediately a new option called "LG Optimus V 2" popped up. It worked great, but then I accidentally removed the new (working) interface instead of the old one. D'oh. Now when I turn on tethering, nothing happens automatically, and I'm not sure how to manually configure the original "LG Optimus V" interface. What options do I need to put in there, and/or how do I make it Just Work again?

Edit: Never mind. Fiddled with it some more and got it to work. Just had to add the interface again (via the + button at the bottom) and renew the DHCP license under Advanced. Simpler than I thought it would be. :p
[Optimus V Android Development] wilberfan:
I was going to chime in that my MMS & SMS seemed to be working fine (with the latest build)...but I use Google Voice sometimes, and wasn't sure if that made a difference...
[Optimus V Android Development] unloop:
I think the eri.xml file is being overwritten, since re-flashing the orginal (0731) ROM changes it back to Virgin Mobile. It's when I flash the green theme that it changes it to Green Machine. I followed the instructions and edited the eri.xml file inside your Green Theme, Virgin Mobile was not to be found. I think it's that Green Machine is the carrier name in the latest release.

Like I said, not that big of a deal, just a preference.
[Optimus V Android Development] JerryScript:
You are correct, Green Machine has replace Virign Mobile in the theme zip file. If you want to change it to something else using a hex editor, search for Green Machine, then you can change it to anything up to 17 characters. If you want more characters or scrolling, you will need to use apkmanager/apktool to decompile the eri.xml file, edit it, recompile, add to zip, resign, then flash.

NOTE: I AM RUNNING DATA2EXT MOD (may affect my recent findings)

Okay this is strange..... I've done several clean wipes and installs of the last two versions of the ROM that was using the new r1 kernel and I seem to be having sparatic Wi-Fi issues.

So remember what people were reporting with the new market how it seemed to disconnect the wireless during use and when the app was "closed" (not just put in background) .-

Well... I am now having that issue with almost all apps that use connectivity when I exit out with the back button it seems to kill wireless for a second and also if the screen turns off while an internet active (non-media) app is running I get the same disconnect now this may be because of some rogue app I've installed but it seems to happen even on setup phone with only gapps. So anyway just thought I would mention it to see if anyone else experienced this issue. (Also my wireless advanced sleep options are set to be always on.)

I can run and post an extended logcat and try to capture the output when the issue is encountered if this is oddity a real issue. (Will wait for a reply to post on github)

My Wi-Fi reset 4 times while i was writing this and I flashed the 7/30 build last night on all clean partitions and did not restore anything (apps/data) of any kind and manually installed everything from the market.

Any thoughts on this blarfie or Jerry?
[Optimus V Android Development] Mellexx:
Is anyone else having issues with widgetlocker on Jerry's 7/30 build force closing? It's basically not usable due to the massive fcs
[Optimus V Android Development] blarfiejandro:
GPS is definitely a big problem, unfortunately (it's pretty inaccurate on my phone, takes forever to lock, and it seems to be a big battery killer). I'm not sure how it's all set up in CM7, but if I can figure out how to use the stock GPS blobs I'll do that. The open source GPS libs just don't seem to work well :/
[Optimus V Android Development] blarfiejandro:
Yeah, I don't use WiFi :P

Sounds like a kernel bug, I know there have been lots of tweaks and changes to the Broadcom driver so there's lots to play with. You can certainly flash the XioniaRedux kernel that Drew baked up for the LS670 and see if that helps.

That said there's a lot of really crappy WiFi hardware out there. Intel's chipsets were ****ing awful for years and years and would just constantly drop trau when you tried to use WPA and g or n. Looks like people are having WiFi trouble with Drew's builds too so perhaps a CM7.1 bug?
[Optimus V Android Development] deaver_92:
Just a heads up to all you Handcent users, the most recent two updates for Handcent (3.9.8 and 3.9.8.1) have broken the ability to use Handcent as a standalone messaging app, meaning unless you have the stock messaging app installed and active (not frozen) you cannot receive MMS. You can, however, send MMS.

An easy way to check is to open Handcent and go to settings>application settings. If you see "Default Messaging application" (second option from top, in between "Language" and "Auto-rotate") then you are good to go. If not then you can't receive MMS.

Handcent 3.9.6 is the most recent version that can still be used as standalone. You can go here to download it. The website is www.apktop.com. Scroll down to just below the screenshots and click on "Download Handcent SMS 3.9.6", or you can click here to download it directly, and then install it on your phone (after you uninstall your current version of course).

I have tested this and can verify that it works.

By the way, just want to say that this rom rocks!! Thank you blarfiejandro, JerryScript, and KemikalElite for all your hard work!
[Optimus V Android Development] unloop:
I tried that last night, must of done something wrong, the theme did not take. This morning I edited the eri.xml file found in Green Theme, wiped caches, reflashed ROM and then Green Theme. When it loaded the first time, while I waited for the apps from the sdcard to boot up, I got the boot animation again for like 5 seconds, then my home screen came up. Kind of weird, but all seems to be working.

Thanks again, and thanks for the work on this ROM!

WiFi problem solved

CM7.2-RC0-IHO-MiRaGe of December 10, 2011 (bd82c2e467c89f510778f52939247c5b)

JuiceDefender Ultimate 3.8.8

I had a problem with WiFi losing connectivity. The WiFi sleep policy in the phone was set to Never disconnect, JuiceDefender was set to Control - Keep enabled - Wifi, but still my Wifi randomly died on me within a few hours after establishing a hotspot connection. Let me clarify, it appeared to remain connected, but no data was available via the connection anymore. The browser timed out, emails could not be sent. The only way to restore the Wifi connection was to disable and subsequently re-enable Wifi.

I experimented with Wifi fixer by Zanshin-g1 from the Android Market, but the results were less than favorable.

Finally I came across a couple of discussions that suggested that even though JuiceDefender Ultimate can be told to leave Wifi alone, it does not always comply as expected. As such, I changed my JuiceDefender setting from Control - Keep enabled - Wifi to Control - WiFi (Let JuiceDefender automatically enable and disable Wifi) - Disabled. This solved my random hotspot disconnection problem.

Let me add that I believe JuiceDefender to be vital for the LG Optimus, especially due to the fact that spotty 3G coverage can drain your phone battery in a hurry (example: 3000 mAh extended battery (basically twice the normal battery), spotty 3G coverage, the battery went from 100% to 30% charge in 9 hours while the phone got seriously hot). However, I can run Wifi all day at a cost of perhaps 10% of said extended battery charge, so I keep Wifi on in my phone at all times. Obviously a sneaky WiFi connection drop kills all online features, so I was happy to get the problem resolved.

I don't believe it's a ROM issue. If i'm not mistaken, it's how LG made it.
[Optimus V Android Development] a5pe4:
It's definitely not a phone issue. When on stock you can power the phone off and charge it. With these CM7 ROM's though, I believe that's just not possible.
[Optimus V Android Development] JerryScript:
It's an issue with the phone not finding the charger images when turned off, so it boots up. Some very smart people have tried to fix it, but it's just not fixable without complete LG source.

Since updating to the current ROM, on my lock screen, there is a random blue bar under the dropdown status bar. Blocks out where it says my carrier "Virgin Mobile".

Also, the battery status icon quit functioning and just stays at 0.

Is this user error or a bug? Also things seem to load much slower.
[Optimus V Android Development] a5pe4:
Haven't had those issues. Sounds like you may have gotten a bad flash.
[Optimus V Android Development] daryllh:
could you be more specific on the settings for the wi-fi solution? I have JD-Ultimate and I don't know if I'm looking at the same settings you are.

I'm guessing you choose 'customize' in status? If so, that brings up the settings tab.

From there, what do you set your wi-fi setting at?

Did you mean under wi-fi you select the 'disable' balloon? That appears to make the options under wi-fi unable to be selected.

Also, if you select the disable balloon, it doesn't allow to adjust 'location' settings.

I had messed around with various combos but wasn't happy with JD's handling of wi-fi. i uninstalled it because I thought it was my phone or I wasn't happy with what it offered in terms of use. It appears that maybe my gripes were what you described so I'm eager to see if your solution fixes it for me.

Thanks a bunch.

I was updating to Jerryscript's latest and am having trouble restoring my apps using Titanium Backup - keeps getting stuck/hangs at various times during the restore.

While I doubt this has anything to do with the update, just wondering if anyone has had a similar issue?

Tried re-installing the ROM a few times

Tried setting "Apps processing mode" to "AUTO, Indirect"

Nandroid restored and verified my backups

Thanks.
[Optimus V Android Development] norwoodesteel:
from my experience part way thru the batch restore something tells the phone that the internal storage is full[market app maybe] and titanium freezes.

i've been rebooting at that point and moving the apps that were restored to the sd card, and running the batch restore again.
[Optimus V Android Development] JerryScript:
^^ what norwoodesteel said.

When restoring apps, they are probably being restored to internal storage instead of to the sdcard. So you have to stop part way through the process, move the restored apps to your sdcard, then continue restoring. There is an option to restore to external storage, YMMV. ;)
[Optimus V Android Development] YouArePoop:
May also be a bad backup

I've had a couple times where restoring got stuck, and when I'd switch to using the non-pro method it would give me a parsing error on the apps it would freeze on. Removing that app from the batch, everything else reinstalled fine.

[Optimus V Android Development] mkoyskip:
Yeah, I guess I forgot to say that I'm using data2ext so I don't get a low memory warning, and it has been hanging sometimes even after the 3rd or 4th app is restored. Killing Titanium (because it's stuck) or rebooting does not fix the issue. And it's never been an issue since I began to use it.

I'm going to try updating Superuser before restoring my apps also, though I don't know if that'll make a difference.

Thanks - as this isn't a Titanium thread I'll just keep searching.:confused:

The changes are as follows

- BobZhome's latest kernel 3.6 is included. I have not recompiled the kernel since Bob's binaries were compiled with the same Linaro toolchain. This kernel adds call recording capability and thekraven's mic fix.

- T9 dialer from CM repo.

- Disabling the boot animation option in the CM settings.

- Few other changes from syncing with CM.
