You rock man! Thanks! :D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] krekabl:
Thanks man for your great work! Just for us who are not so much familiar with all this stuff you profs are doing, could we have a bit step-by-step explanation? I am running CM7, so what exactly do I need to do to get the rom and ALL LG drivers and goodies? So I go into CWM, flash your stuff and then update LG drivers and baseband, or...? Thanks for advice I am sure there are other people who don't get this completely!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jsauce75:
Can anyone else offer any advise if that is a good idea or not?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jabhome:
Faux Froyo kernel will not work on the 2.3.3 update. If you want vodoo, you have to revert back to Froyo and use the Faux Kernel, or go to Faux AOSP or other 2.3.4 rom and install one of his Kernel's for those roms that has vodoo support.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jsauce75:
Or I can wait it out until lg releases the source code, correct?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Lightning Blue:
This is the official release by LG!

Good luck!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] my_former_self:
Yup. LG decided to release this thing via their craptastic LG Updater program rather than OTA (for the moment). I actually feel sorry for the techs at LG; they've got a lot of "bricked" phones coming their way due to that awful program. Makes you wonder if they even tested the thing. Thank God there's a way to fix it, but most people have panicked and flooded their local TMO store.

And, yeah, like Lightning insinuated, don't hold your breath for the source code. It took over 3 months just to get the GB update promised back in April. But I'm sure if you ask LG about the source code, it'll be "in a few weeks." :rolleyes:
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mikeglongo:
Is this the baseband from the official OTA?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] One1Two2:
So you were able to make it rooted. Then how come we cant root stock gingerbread?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] my_former_self:
No, that can only be done by manually updating via LG's (craptastic) updater tool first. Then, you can use NVFlash to reflash your CWM Recovery and flash whatever ROM you wish (rooted or non) and still retain the new baseband. For now, that's the only way to get it.

NOTE: If you are planning to manually update, use the "Unbrick your G2x" link in my sig to update. You'll be MUCH happier you did it that way, believe me. Same result, just one less headache.

Oh, man. I'll just post his response to me from another forum when I prodded for that answer:

I'm not commenting past that. I'm too busy to deal with the fallout :rolleyes: Basically, no one's found a way (yet) to root Gingerbread on G2x other than dumping the /system, putting in Superuser.apk, SU, busybox, etc., and then repackaging and signing.

Could someone detail which apps are removed by the bloat zip?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] my_former_self:
FYI, I did this by downloading the Bloat_Remover.zip, unzipping and looking in the updater-script file located in the unzipped \META-INF\com\google\android\ folder.

Bloat removed:

AppPack.apk

BooksPhone.apk

CarHome.apk

CarHomeLauncher.apk

com.mobitv.client.tmobiletvhd.apk

DocMaster.apk

launcher_signed_aligned.apk

MyAccount.apk

NFSShift.apk

Nova.apk

NVIDIATegraZone.apk

qik-tmo.apk

sihome-TMO.apk

Telenav.apk

ZinioReader.Regular.apk

ZinioSettingsProvider.Default.apk
[T-Mobile LG G2x] One1Two2:
Thank you for all the info. After realizing what a noob I was being. I found a Linux method and now am gravy. I now can boot into recovery and I'm riding a custom rom
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JonEk@t:
Thank you! I wanted to remove all but NFS Shift, so I did it manually with Antec.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] my_former_self:
No prob. Oh, and Titanium Backup can remove bloat, too, FYI. You can select what you want and what you want gone. Worth the money 10x over.

is there anyway to add a mod to the rom from cm7 messenger mod? cause i just want to black out my text message background like u can do in cm7. please let me know thanks
[T-Mobile LG G2x] xboarder56:
Yes check apps and themes we made on
[T-Mobile LG G2x] s10shane:
i cant find it anywhere.. i looked on the first page but i dont see any mods for the message app.. i just wanna black out the background cause i think it goes good with the gingerbread look. lol
[T-Mobile LG G2x] xboarder56:
check the g2x apps and themes like the 2nd page of the fourm
[T-Mobile LG G2x] s10shane:
ok i found it and flashed the zip but one text message came up from like a month ago and i deleted it and it went away. then it came back and it wont let me delete it even though it says nothing but the number. also the date is dec 31, 1969 lmao

here is one pic of the text message i cant delete at all.

the other pic i noticed when i go to manage sim text messages it shows up all weird. guess i gotta flash back to the stock mms app.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] eghoti1:
after flash and reboot, the LG screen appears and then the screen stays black with the backlight flashing intermittenly. Anyone else experience this and get a fix?

EDIT: looks like it was a corrupted zip, i redownloaded and reflashed, now it booted on the first time.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] s10shane:
hey i was wondering if there is a way to get Sixaxis Controller app to work on this rom? it works on the cm7 rom but not sure what missing required protocol means.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] xboarder56:
You need cm7 Bluetooth stack
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dkerns06:
Is there any oc kernels that will work with this?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] s10shane:
oh ok so there is no way to add that into this rom? i have no clue what that is.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] ZeroT| Demented:

[T-Mobile LG G2x] wyldkard:

[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
Only the LG Updater, an OTA update or a KDZ Flash will update the baseband.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tdizzle404:
Jboxer what rom are you using?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
First I have to make a correction to a statement I made earlier in this thread. After working on a rom I discovered that the stock LG roms for the P990/P999 devices are deodexed by LG. I've never seen this in a stock rom before.

I am currently using my "stock" 2.3.4 rom I created from an image from an LG-L95G pre-released device for Tracfone. It is the same hardware as the P999 and I had the rom up and running and stable in less than 12 hours from getting the image. Now I am tweaking it. It is very stable and bloat free. You can find the thread for this rom at the url below.

Is there away I can get this ROM to read of my SDCard instead of my internal phone memory?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] shovelhead83:
I understand there is a way but its extremely difficult. Even for a dev.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
You need to change the mount points in the file "/system/etc/vold.fstab". It is actually not that hard to do but you need to have a rooted device.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] richie390:
So I change External to "mmc1" and Internal to "mmc2"
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
Look at the one inside CM7 rom and see what they did. They switch them around as you want. But if you do this do not format the memory card in the device, or the wrong card (internal vs external) will be formatted, as the formatter unmounts the memory and then formats the partition directly.

Here is the file from CM7.

#######################
## Regular device mount
##
## Format: dev_mount <label> <mount_point> <part> <sysfs_path1...>
## label - Label for the volume
## mount_point - Where the volume will be mounted
## part - Partition # (1 based), or 'auto' for first usable partition.
## <sysfs_path> - List of sysfs paths to source devices
######################

dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.2/mmc_host/mmc1
dev_mount emmc /mnt/emmc 9 /devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.3/mmc_host/mmc2

Here is one from stock LG.

## Vold 2.0 NVIDIA Whistler fstab

#######################
## Regular device mount
##
## Format: dev_mount <label> <mount_point> <part> <sysfs_path1...>
## label - Label for the volume
## mount_point - Where the volume will be mounted
## part - Partition # (1 based), or 'auto' for first usable partition.
## <sysfs_path> - List of sysfs paths to source devices
######################

## 20100725, hyeseung.ryu@lge.com, Add 2nd external memory
dev_mount extsdcard /mnt/sdcard/_ExternalSD auto /devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.2/mmc_host/mmc1 /devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.2/mmc_host/mmc0
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.3/mmc_host/mmc2

I might have confused you more because CM7 is calling the internal sd, EMMC instead of _ExternalSD. But for what you want to do I believe you can swap the two as you asked above. Change mmc1 to mmc2 and vice versa. Give it a whirl and report back.

BTW, I am not responsible if you use this information and wind up borking, or worse, your device.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] richie390:
Sorry it took so long lol I kept deciding to stay on MIUI for awhile but not made the decision to switch to the OTA Stock. Now I copied it exactly, but can't mount correctly. Nor can pick up either the SD or Internal

I installed faux GB kernel 1.3 r2 on this rom and can overclock with it very nicely. Seems very stable as long as I dont undervolt...

80 people with a hacked up ota.

People wonder why xda makes me want to shoot people from the clock tower.

Let me elaborate: You took a nandroid, and converted it to an update.zip with 'root' but probably didn't test it, you didn't think about the baseband issues, you didn't consider if it would conflict with other roms, you didn't THINK.

XDA: If it boots, shipit. What could go wrong?!?

is it just me or is there ALOT more settings in the build.prop now? dalvik heapsize default 54m now? x_X

[T-Mobile LG G2x] mmapcpro:
Ummm...this isn't something you can "patch" into your CM7 modded phone. You can either continue to use CM7 for now (like I am choosing), OR you can nandroid restore back to stock and then run the LG update tool to update to this release. Or you can download the flashable zip on this thread, and install it like you would any other custom rom. Either of the latter 2 paths will leave you with Android 2.3.3, NOT CM7 2.3.4. We are all HOPING that the devs will be able to get SOMETHING of value out of this update and then be able to integrate it into their builds, but that probably won't be today. Maybe we will see a baseband patch today/tomorrow, but with this old kernel, I don't know what more we can get out of this.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] AshTR:
It shouldn't conflict with other ROMs if you're doing a full wipe. As for baseband issues, there might be a problem there since this doesn't have the July 15th baseband update.

However, with the baseband update in there, Stock 2.2 and CM7 might be broken. (I wish someone would try the new baseband over these two, but this is XDA, where if someone does manage it, I'm going to have zero idea.)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] TheDudeOfLife:
>.<

This is why I never log into XDA anymore. I'm coming on here, trying to make sure nothing goes horribly wrong...and getting flamed by some ghetto punk who has no idea who I am or how long i've been here.

MEANWHILE, I'm testing the OTA, checking out the baseband, getting together a stock baseband (in case stuff OMG goes wrong) and TESTING to make sure that all of this works with CM7's RIL

Listen BROS. Winzip does not make you a developer. Pushing out updates super fast w/o testing does not make you a developer. Having a stupid banner and a 'donate to me' does not make you a ****ing developer.

DEVELOPING makes you a developer.

TESTING makes you a developer.

XDA has cooks, most of them grill, pan fry, or broil...none of them develop.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] xboarder56:
if you updated to lg version there might be not sure but mine is still orginal baseband so there should be no issues.and if we do find a way to update baseband i will have it as option to install over the old one if it does effect capability
[T-Mobile LG G2x] TheDudeOfLife:
If the new baseband isn't compatible with the old Radio Interface Layer, you're going to have a lot of pissed off people when they try to flash something besides this stock update. As of now your update is fine...because it doesn't include the radio (which rom update .zips never should anyway)

Just don't shoehorn it into this update and release it...that's bad form...really bad.

I pulled the baseband from the V21 update and kept a copy. What i'd love for someone to point out to me is an original ota either in kdz format or even a .zip... (not someone's nandroid, please) Then at least there'd be a roll back if things do go south.
