Hurra for Knzo!!....we don't know him but we apreciate your work..

impacient?....no..who say it?
[LG Optimus Black] naeem86:
omg that's great news knzo!!i really can't wait now although nova 8 is running smoothly!:D hope u get ur phone tomorow!xD
[LG Optimus Black] mannyAk47:
This phone is real good and really underrated as i use it along side my Galaxy S II

All it is lacking is android 2.3xx CM, as both phones are awesome android phones but i do like the LG p970 slightly better

Cant believe LG and other android phone makers are so slow getting gingerbread Sw updates as icecream/sandwich is around the corner now.

Thanks for all the efforts in trying to get the CM rom Knzo
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
Man I saw your comment @ rmc's G+ this morning.. and all I did yell was "YEAH!!!" when I saw the github link. Too bad you don't have your phone though.
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Oh, I only said that I could compile and boot it, almost for sure it wouldn't be bugfree as the actual port is (for example, I had no idea how to fix the frontal camera like rmcc did). But still, better a beta to play around than nothing I guess.

They sent it to our country's LG service center (we don't have one in my city). I think the board got toasted by excessive humidity and this isn't covered by the warranty but perhaps they'll be sympathetic. :)
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
Exactly, better have a beta in your hands, cause we might never know if CM would see light on our phone.

Oh, humid? Plus the always plugged I guess cause you're always flashing/testing and all and device gets warm more often. Unlike us, we only flash once in a while. Charge when needed to..
[LG Optimus Black] dpockets:
Knzo i appreciate your work. My phone was also got motherboard problem due to water logged but lg service centre guys in here in delhi(india) are very kind they replacing my motherboard in warranty even though they know it had a prob bcz of water, wish u luck that your country lg guys would surely give u same kind of service.

LG service rocksss. :-)
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Yeah, I damn hope so too as I'm not feeling like losing 200€ for nothing.
[LG Optimus Black] zaitz:
Nice price, i payed 350€ for mine :)
[LG Optimus Black] sacman74:
and.....what's up with CM7 merge???..

somebody knows?....

I returned to the stock rom...and works, but slow and bored.. hehe
[LG Optimus Black] lesp4ul:
Ricardo is concentrating with optimus 3d right now. Maybe he wants to release both devices mod in the same time. I think they were ready...
[LG Optimus Black] knzo:
Yep, I also have the idea that they are ready.

But sadly I hear he's been with a lot of work (rl job).

What's left it's probably the merge and make it compatible with every device.

The good news is that it'll happen almost for sure. I'm following the updates on the OMAP support and seems to me this will go ahead, even if it breaks other devices and forces them to use overlays or something. OMAP4 support is important, especially when it will be the default platform for Android 4.0 so it seems to be getting some priority.

The only question left is when.
[LG Optimus Black] lesp4ul:
If CM7 is released, are we allowed to modify it like MIUI team does? We know CM has some rules. If allowed, you must be interested right? :)
[LG Optimus Black] AlienZoneR:
Thanks, I'm gona trie a full wipe, maybe will work, God help my LG :D
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
Already tried to only do a Dalvik and batt wipe? Then of course install the rom again...

It's the easier way so I would go for that one first and if you succeed, pls leave a comment so others know what to do in the same case :)
[LG Optimus Black] lesp4ul:
Oh haha it's okay, i was talking about OB. I have both phone and i am thankful that you are willing to continue acree's work unofficially.

I still on #17, can you write down a complete changelog & known bugs to us? i read your posts about the bugs you found on your mod :)
[LG Optimus Black] AlienZoneR:
It WORKS :D, so if you have missing statusbar, wipe data it's what you need ;)
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
Don't forget that there's a button that sais THNX ;) dalvik wipe alone was not enough i guess? :)
[LG Optimus Black] dharmabm:
Ahh, I am growing somewhat weary of saying this but I will do it one last time - the only work I have done is that of a machine that is offline, nothing more. I am not coding or developing or improving a thing, just compiling what others much smarter than me have done.
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
But is there maybe also ICS code that can already be compiled for our phones? just curious about it ;)
[LG Optimus Black] Thes1ev:
At the beginning everything seemed to be fine but now I have some problems with incoming and outgoing calls. I just can't hear other person and vice versa. Sometimes it's fine sometimes not... no idea wtf ;p CM 7.2 + Nova.v10

Before I flashed it I made wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition and wipe dalvik cache.
[LG Optimus Black] dharmabm:
that is true, to some extent. i actually tried to do it tonight but there are some make files missing, and i haven't yet figured out how to create them properly. i am experimenting but not sure i can do it, and even if i can i'm thinking it may be better to keep it to myself if i do given some of the reaction to my cm7 build. better to wait for the experts i think.
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
But if u REALLY should be able to make it bootable and usable by some extent, I would love to be one of your alpha testers :D I mean bricking my phone is no problem, I could always unbrick till now and if not, I have a VEERY good insurance for my phone ;)
[LG Optimus Black] MarioSeed:
I have to ask why I have a call. I did not hear the conversation. I done all full wipped all
[LG Optimus Black] dharmabm:
i've heard that happens sometimes, turning speaker on and off seems to fix it when it happens.
[LG Optimus Black] elite4ever:
I came from Nova, did a full wipe, Dalvik, and cache. I installed CM7 RC0 and nova v10 kernel , i have the following bugs:

-No sound in outgoing call, unless i press the speaker button. edit: only sometimes, i rebooted again and the problem seems fixed

-No sound in the ringing tune, until i press the button to answer the call.

Anyone experiencing the same bugs ?
[LG Optimus Black] saidhabla:
Everyone... or almost everyone... same old bugs.
[LG Optimus Black] Felsar:
I have somehow the same... the difference is

-No sound when I make a call, untill I press the speaker button

-Sometimes no sound in the ringing tune, untill I answer the call [still vibrate]
[LG Optimus Black] franbar:
Trying

Hi

Tired of LG lies and CM bugs, yesterday i flashed update-cm-7.2.0-RC-OptimusBlack-KANG-signed and V10 mod.

It seems all works correctly, i received a call ... sounds work and i speak without problems. Play and search & navigate the web with and without wifi, and battery was about 10 hours

I think this will be my diary rom

Sorry for my english
[LG Optimus Black] elite4ever:
Sorry, is the same bug , i misspell income with outgoing :P
[LG Optimus Black] nikpik:
^I had that problem with Nightly #20 and it's gone in RC0. Have you tried reflashing RC0 again?

Some notes:

- (Objective)Battery life seems a lot better with RC0 though i haven't ran a longetivity test, it does feel like the battery drain is better compared to the nightlies

- The volume problem with the headset has lessened a bit. It's still there but not as bad (prolly a 20% boost instead of the 40% in the nightlies)

- had one crash to recovery during standby. No idea if it was caused by the wifi or the GPS :/
[LG Optimus Black] LookedPath:
i've tried to do a full wipe and all the bug dissapeared...

this is the best nightlie that i've evere tried...

thank you guys for all your hard work... ;-)
[LG Optimus Black] Felsar:
may I need to flash it again? cause I did it clean since the first flash of this rc0,wiped everything and still found those issues above listed
[LG Optimus Black] Redpik:
List of changes getting bigger : http://cm-nightlies.appspot.com/?device=p970
[LG Optimus Black] dos2unix:
link for RC0

can someone share to me the link for RC0.

the dropbox link has been suspended. thank you in advance! :)
[LG Optimus Black] mertzi:
i'm giving up on CM for a while, i'm tired of the network problems. i have tried almost all nightlies and all kernels available but no combination works and the dfvs enabler in nova doesn't help either. now i'm back at stock 10B and the network is fine with no disconnects at all, but stock is really horrible in all other ways.
[LG Optimus Black] quyTam:
see post # 1375
[LG Optimus Black] iNickMe:
Just remove kernel Nova v10, it be fine with sound
[LG Optimus Black] Felsar:
Well, I have this problem with and without nova10 so I don't think it's a kernel issue...

BTW redy2006 is compaling another rc0 [or nightly whatever] and have the same old sound problem, and it seems to be some bluetooth thing or so, I don't quite get it but that's what he told me
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
Even with stock CM, it still had audio sound.

I'm still trying to figure it out :) My first build still having audio problem. Now I had 2nd build on the way compiled, and now I had to take a break by watching One Piece Anime :D
[LG Optimus Black] Felsar:
Hope you get it figured out soon man, that bluetooth thing you say didn't work or haven't tried yet?

One Piece is great btw :p
[LG Optimus Black] TheGripper:
In my opinion the RC0 is pretty good...i actually didn't notice any bugs. And battery life has improved.

And i was using wifi 3 hours for web browsing.
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
You are using Dolphin Web Browser.. I don't know the updates of Dolphin now, but once Dolphin make a fastest draining my battery, and I won't using it again :)

-Please CMIIW-
[LG Optimus Black] zogoibi:
Battery life.

I'm on:

CM7-RC0-Kang

Nova V9 (I've read that V10 is more battery hungry),

full wipe (i.e., from scratch install),

Lionheart governor (it's supposed to be the best one for battery life, right?),

but first impression is that battery drain seems bigger than usual. Not overly bigger, but certainly bigger (can't provide statistics, though).
[LG Optimus Black] kokocf:
I agree, from 100% to 0% in six hours or less over the night, with none activity at all..., i return to nightly #17.
[LG Optimus Black] zogoibi:
Recovery mode

Another thing: with CM7-RC0 (plus Nova V9 kernel) I can't enter recovery mode with the Vol Down plus Power button key combo. Any ideas why? I know how to do enter recovery, and now I've tried many times, so I don't think that I missed the "window" for it. Am a facing a RC0 issue? A Nova V9 issue? Or simply my phone issue?

Help appreciated.
[LG Optimus Black] ephidor:
left it on 100% overnight and it was flat less than 12 hours later

initial thoughts 'impressed'
[LG Optimus Black] nikpik:
Download this app to reboot into recovery then Reflash RC0
[LG Optimus Black] agent205:
you might wanna flash this
[LG Optimus Black] LookedPath:
ok for the sound problem it's strange because when i've flashed there was any problem,after the night i noticed the audio problem when making/receiving a call...

so i rebooted the phone and all worked smoothly...

so i've made some testings and the bug is with the audio profiles...

when you set one of them the problem is there,but when you set the default one and then restart the problem dissapears...

i'm runnig nova v10 kernel...

this is very strange... ò.ò
[LG Optimus Black] dharmabm:
Just worked for me, rc0 stock kernel.
[LG Optimus Black] lvlouro:
I have audio problems and I never changed between profiles...

I've only been changing sound manually from the notifications bar or volume rocker
[LG Optimus Black] LookedPath:
for me changing through the status bar doesen't create any problem...

edit:

but i've found the problem with the sound of a call...

but i don't care about it because i have the vibration...

this version is the fastest and the more stable that i've tried...
[LG Optimus Black] zogoibi:
Thanks. I can already reboot into recovery with ROM manager. So, if I reflash RC0 and flash again Nova V9 on top of it, will my eRecovery be lost again? I mean, is the Nova kernel "destroying" the eRecovery?

Hmm.... I remember having flashed that some kernels ago, at the beginning of the CM7 nightlies. Thanks for reminding me. But... will it work on top of RC0+Nova 9?

[EDIT] Ok, it works like a charm!
[LG Optimus Black] elite4ever:
reflashed with full wipe again, and with the custom kerner, for now. most of bugs seems fixed ;)
[LG Optimus Black] zogoibi:
But have you flashed some Nova kernel on top of it? Or you're on bare RC0?
[LG Optimus Black] johnnyslt:
this is the latest build of cm, it includes all the commits as of today :

http://www.multiupload.com/IOJJVLNEWF

md5 : f6c0c34033868bfc9814411eaecfac01

credits goes to : cyanogenmod, Ricardo, knzo...etc
[LG Optimus Black] agent205:
CMIIW,but AFAIK, when you flash a new ROM the other mods, like kernel and eRecovery, are gone

so you need to reflash it again :D

nova v9 has no eRecovery anymore because,in that time, CM7 >#17 already had Recovery-from-boot access

but i'm not sure if RC0 also had it, i haven't tried it yet :p
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
Nova v09 features Kernel Injector and has no eRecovery because it was removed. During beta testing Nova v08, eRecovery seems causing bootloop/no boot during that time. So the solution to attain kinjector is remove it till they can figure out another erecovery in future kernels. Huexxx Kernel on the other hand, still uses boot.img, that's why eRecovery is no problem in addition. HTH
[LG Optimus Black] stellar_d:
Battery Life Unacceptable

Hello I'm desperate for help. I did a clean install of RC0 (no nova) last night, wiped the battery stats when it was fully charged and let it sit on my night stand over night. When I got to it this morning it was nearly 60% depleted with no activity at all. I have wi-fi set to shut off when the screen was off. Only gapps installed and of course better battery and cpuspy. I would LOVE to be able to get the life that I'm reading about from other users, please please help!

I'm starting to wonder if my battery itself is the issue?
[LG Optimus Black] dharmabm:
the stock kernel which comes with my rc0 selfkang - so yes, bare rc0
[LG Optimus Black] zogoibi:
Agent205 & gabwerkz: thanks to both, and sorry for my not understanding totally well.

So, does all this mean that, if I want recovery-key-combo on CM7, I can't flash Nova (>#8) on top of it, and if I want Nova (>#8), I can't have recovery-key-combo (unless using Huexx-eRecovery patch)?
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
Wifi depletes battery fast. Look at your photos, wifi on ratio is 100%. Also, stock CM has DVFS enabled which in some cases shows abnormal scaling of frequencies. Like 1000mhz locking. On custom kernels Like Nova, DVFS was disabled. HTH

---------- Post added at 01:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:59 AM ----------

Yes, AFAIK eRecovery stops at Nova v07. Nova v08, 09, 10 has KI. Kernel Injector is a way to maximize compatibility with the ROM and the custom kernel. Boot image is read and written using system's own dd. Combining kernel image with existing ramdisk is the job for kinjector,

For reference: > Aprold's Kernel Injector

EDIT: I don't think you can flash eRecovery patch with Nova08 and further. It might cause a problem. You can try but be warned.
[LG Optimus Black] saidhabla:
I can suggest to go for a Custom Kernel... #10 it's working great for me...
[LG Optimus Black] stellar_d:
Sorry, I forgot to include the snapshot of the cpu spy. It did say it was in a deep sleep for 97% of the time. The other remaining was at 300mhz.

So even if the WIFI set to shut off while the screen is off (which it was the whole night) it will still drain? Is it good practice to just leave it off entirely? With the stock rom the battery survives much longer even with it on.

If I'm looking for battery life, is it worth switching to Nova? My only issue with it is that it seems to not function well with my blue tooth parrot.

Thanks for the prompt help! I know I'm not the only noob with this issue :)
[LG Optimus Black] saidhabla:
Thanks for the update.

Are the audio bugs still there? I think I won't update until that's fixed...

Thanks again.

---------- Post added at 11:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:06 AM ----------

I went to NOVA for a couple of days, but with the #20PLUS (RC0) and Kernel MOD #10 the battery life seems good enough. Similar to the NOVA8.

When install, whipe all data... it helped for me.
[LG Optimus Black] johnnyslt:
Don't know yet, but recording video seams better
[LG Optimus Black] nikpik:
Currently downloading.. Will check if the audio problems via headphones is still present. I'll try to do a call as well but as it's in the wee hours (1:00 am), I think it's better to put this off later.
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
You have to understand Governors how they behave and scale. Nova v09 only has 3, Lionheart, a heavily tweaked Ondemand and interactive. I haven't tested v10 yet. Head over to Nova Kernel thread and go back to some pages. I've had 7+hours mostly standby with some usage and battery is still 92% I think. That is no Wi-fi.

So have this test with your stock ROM. Shut off wifi and let the phone sleep. Turn it on only when you need to browse and monitor changes with your battery.

---------- Post added at 01:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:25 AM ----------

You compiled this, or a link of dharmabm's previous compiled RC0?
[LG Optimus Black] kokocf:
I'm not sure but if you flash huexxx e-recovery maybe help you
[LG Optimus Black] Redpik:
I flashed it and started with google sign-in. So gapps are installed in ROM already.
[LG Optimus Black] agent205:
ummm, let me explain like this :

nova kernel v0-v7 = have recovery access

nova kernel v8-10 = no recovery access

CM7 #0 - #17 = have no recovery access

CM7 #18 - #20 = have it

hope you understand :D

CMIIW

i've flashed huexxx's eRecovery over Nova v10 (#17), and it works well :D
[LG Optimus Black] nikpik:
According to the checksum it's a different from dharmabm's release.
[LG Optimus Black] stellar_d:
I have an understanding of the governors. I'm just hesitant to go nova as I find it messes up my blue tooth too much. My biggest confusion was why in the battery stats reports it says its waking up but no wifi usage in the graphs, yet it says its on 100% in the report. Even though its set to shut off when screen is off.

I'll give it a try with wifi shut right off and see. I've also just updated to the latest RC0 with a full wipe. I'll let you know what I find. Again thanks for the help!!
[LG Optimus Black] zogoibi:
Thx. I did and it worked... so far! Hope no surprises. :S

It did, thx. :)

Thanks mate! That's the kind of explanation that a newby like me was in need of! Now it's crystal clear.

But, then, to all of you, here comes the $ 1 Million question:

If CM7 #20 has recovery access and Nova v9 honours kernel injector feature, why I don't have recovery access with RC0 (CM7>#20) plus Nova V9?
[LG Optimus Black] Redpik:
Audio bug still here....
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
You mean volume down + power button? eRecovery and arcee's own (CM) PBR - pseudo-boot recovery are of two different things. CM's Nightly 18-20 and the RC0 already have PBR. eRecovery (Knzo, Huexxx) conflicts to it somehow or with the KI method.

So in context, we have PBR (CM) + eRecovery with the previous kernels. But with the KI introduced in Nova v08 to latest, we only now have PBR. :) Hence the volume down + power button method to enter recovery.
[LG Optimus Black] nikpik:
Confirmed :/
[LG Optimus Black] johnnyslt:
i've compile it
[LG Optimus Black] zogoibi:
That's correct, gabwerkz: I meant PBR. I've flashed (full wiped) RC0 + Nova V9, and I don't get PBR. Why that can be? Should I re-flash everything again?
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
I think PBR is hard to implement. The timing of pressing the button and all. :D

During boot, you have to be precise in pressing the buttons. Even I is having a hard time to implement it.
[LG Optimus Black] dharmabm:
Nova v10 does appear to break cm7 native recovery in my kang
[LG Optimus Black] zogoibi:
Ok, maybe that's the reason why! I'll try harder. But I really tried something like five or six times...

Hmm... But I'm with Nova V9... Might also break it?
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
With a stock CM7 installed (with no custom kernel), was it easy to use PBR?
[LG Optimus Black] zogoibi:
Ok, there's nothing like finding out by oneself: I've just flashed CM7-RC0 and PBR works like a charm, first try, no problems.

Now I'll try and flash a custom kernel, and see what happens.
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
Before you flashed Nova kernel, (stock CM), PBR worked? Cause i can't enter PBR as well. I only adb my way whenever needed/bootloop. So we can report to the thread if the new Nova kernel's break CM's native recovery.

Anyone succeeded entering PBR yet using new Nova kernels?
[LG Optimus Black] zogoibi:
You've anticipated my post by 30 seconds! :)

Now, after flashing Nova V9 on top of RC0, PBR stops working. So, it's confirmed: Nova kernels (at least V9) break native PBR in #20 and above.
[LG Optimus Black] gabwerkz:
:D there you go, so another bug came out. We don't have any emergency recovery as of now. Might want to report to aprold for that. Thanks for testing.
[LG Optimus Black] zogoibi:
Already reported in the DEV thread. Yep, we have no PBR, but at least we know that Huexx eRecovery patch can be flashed and works with no problems.
[LG Optimus Black] lvlouro:
I had #20 with nova 10 then due to problems I reflashed on top of that #20 only wiping dalvik and I can't enter recovery...

so reflashing cm doesn't bring recovery back
[LG Optimus Black] jason600:
Can we use the binaries for the audio from nightly 17 in the later builds?

N17 was the last build without severe audio problems. If we could replace the audio files in n20 (or later) with the files from n17, then we could take advantage of the new commits without the audio hassles.

Which files/libs would need replacing? Or is there a reason this wouldn't work.
