First post will not be updated as long as things will be cleared. I am still very active on the battery drain issue and still experimenting to find the best fit. So, if all people will calm down and decide to give a hand experimenting themselves, perhaps we will cross the finish line quicker.

great rom mate!! thanks a lot for the effort!

How to use the Overclock Daemon for 1.7 & 1.8

Speaking of an FAQ in the OP. One of the more common but underrated questions is how to UV. I keep track of this thread and below is a personal note that I use in order to remind myself on how to do it. Hope it helps. :D

How to use the Overclock Daemon for 1.7 & 1.8
[LG Optimus 2x] Craxx:
THX salisbury_steak,

i copied it to my list also:)
[LG Optimus 2x] Thief777:
@salisbury_steak

how to lower the voltage?

I have - [1015MHz@0.900v]
[LG Optimus 2x] squide:
until now, I still don't understand what's the benefit of the OC daemon in 1.7

in 1.6 using pimpmycpu with save as boot.

all OC/UV are done by the script in init.d

the pimpmycpu app is actually no longer needed to run if you happy with that setting.

what's the point using the 1.7OC daemon but not the old method?

I remember topogigi said it save more battery that way.. but how actually?

will the endless while loop for detecting the screen state actually consuming more power?
[LG Optimus 2x] pppack:
Exactly, even with the battery drain it is a great rom
[LG Optimus 2x] lucfig:
Some feedback about the WiFi issue some users are experiencing.

I was using baseband 0622 with 0725 ril without any problems. The same with 0725 with matching ril. But when I used 0622 with it's matching ril my WiFi started to get disconnected after some minutes.
[LG Optimus 2x] egomantes:
Really nice ROM!!!

But I get a FC when try to open My Apps window on Market instead rebooting...

Any idea how to solve it?

Thank you!
[LG Optimus 2x] wapz:
Had drain as well, reinstalled 1.7 wipe + sp1 + ginger icons and recovered user apps, hoping to see drain fixed :-)

Before i had updated from 1.6 up and didn't trust it, so lets see if this works better. Thanks Topogigi!
[LG Optimus 2x] salisbury_steak:
Wait, how did you know that you are at 0.900v?

Anyway, since 1015MHz is the 4th frequency in the list, then the value you'll be placing in the 4th slot of S08volt_scheduler will do the under volt.

Yeah, not sure either. Especially since there's not alot of documentation about CPU daemon yet.

But... I have faith in Topogigi. :p
[LG Optimus 2x] markop90:
One benefit? Better OC control with a low-ram consumption daemon (~70KB of ram usage)
[LG Optimus 2x] massari90:
I had a massive battery drain. It turned out to be an app. It was called on screen phone or something. Since freezing that app I have no more battery drain :)
[LG Optimus 2x] salisbury_steak:
That's possible. I have On Screen Phone uninstalled actually. Since I never really use it. I then have LG PC Suite frozen.

(No battery drain here.)
[LG Optimus 2x] lucfig:
I don't have problems with on screen phone. I use it sometimes and have pc suite uninstaled. It is not dependent of it.

And the system process using most of the processor (as system panel informs me) is nvrm_daemon. Is it the cpu daemon?
[LG Optimus 2x] squide:
PimpMyCPU with save as boot setting won't consume more RAM either.

as the app itself do not needed to be running anymore until you want to change the settings.

on next boot, a startup script will let the kernel know the parameters for scaling

and that's all, the kernel will do its work without the PimpMyCPU app.

how PimpMyCPU work..

The app itself is working like what you're doing with the ES file manager only.
[LG Optimus 2x] Topogigi:
Not exactly. The daemon also takes care of limiting clock speed when screen is off , And it raises clock speed on wakeup immediately, while all the other overclocking apps and scripts with profiling capabilities manage to do it in 6/7 seconds. If anyone wants to go deeper in this, here you can find the link to the original thread.

xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1222020

As a side note, nvrm_daemon has nothing to do with it as it is the nvidia display driver.
[LG Optimus 2x] the_scotsman:
I've cleaned the last few pages of all the crap going on. Please keep the discussion civilised and on topic :)
[LG Optimus 2x] Dzhedaj:
I have not applied SP1, just installed v1.7 and then updated Neoblaze kernel to the most recent one. I have uninstalled all LG crapware like Car Home, On-Screen Phone, Weather, etc.

The phone was charged 48 hours ago, now I still have 50% battery left, with low/medium usage, including some browsing, calls and messages and traveling through good/poor reception zones where 2G/3G had to change a lot...

Data connection is always enabled, as well as 3G.

Best ROM so far :)
[LG Optimus 2x] squide:
not really useful for limiting the Screen off MAX IMO.

as you need to raise it up to almost the same with Screen On Max.

in order to get a good screen on reaction.

And quite a chance you want some processes run in full speed with the screen off.

I also believe keep monitoring the screen state

and changing the values from time to time do comsume more power than set it once and for all.

That's why I'm still using 1.6 + SP1 with modifying init.d scripts
[LG Optimus 2x] kelvin_tan:
You froze the onscreen phone app ?

I thought that is the phone itself? or anyone cares to correct me?

I have been thinking whether to freeze it or not actually but unsure of what will happen if I do.. Anybody can help me there?
[LG Optimus 2x] Dzhedaj:
That app is for controlling your phone via your PC...
[LG Optimus 2x] Topogigi:
That's the content of default.prop in my ramdisk:
[LG Optimus 2x] Thief777:
1.6 are stable.

default 0.950 ?

i need to register [-50] ?
[LG Optimus 2x] Topogigi:
1.6 has no overclock daemon, so you don't need to modify anything. You can use pimpmycpu to undevolt there.
[LG Optimus 2x] fire3d:
Current drain .....
[LG Optimus 2x] fire3d:
Wrong pic above.....
[LG Optimus 2x] libehv:
gps is completely broken in 1.7sp1

it worked in v1.7
[LG Optimus 2x] Topogigi:
Take the services.jar from there if it works better for you.
[LG Optimus 2x] massari90:
I did. The reason was my battery drained fast, I checked the usage tab and it showed that that app was the cause. I couldnt actually see what the app is.. so I just went to MyBackupPro and froze it along with other LG crapware haha. Besides that, I have had no problems with my battery besides when I actually use the phone (normal battery drain) :D
[LG Optimus 2x] fire3d:
here is the correct shot from the drain:

as said before, removed some LG stuff like OnScreenPhone, automodus, PCSync

and other thinkgs that i not need.

Rom is 1.7, SP1 installed and installed the latest neoblaze kernal over it.

Overnight i lot Wlan connection, when i wake up the Phone it doesn't see any Wifi connections, but this can be an issue

with Juice Defender
[LG Optimus 2x] Striatum_bdr:
It's a VNC app to be able to control your phone from your computer. Big background activity. You can freeze it and unfreeze when needed.

It's a LG gift, part of the famous bloatware stuff. I personally removed it.
[LG Optimus 2x] SimDroid:
I have one question...

Im using Gingerbread keyboard from market, but the vibrate feedback is not working as distinctly as on Cyanogenmod. Is there any way to tweak this?
[LG Optimus 2x] BritSwedeGuy:
1.7 SP1

I would say that my battery usage is acceptable, it's certainly no worse than it was with CM7.

I have deleted or frozen much of the LG crapware.
[LG Optimus 2x] Topogigi:
Just a little taste of 1.8 for you guys....:)

Stay tuned.
[LG Optimus 2x] Bir92:
GREAT!!!

Will there be a release today ???

TY
[LG Optimus 2x] dedroidz:
You forgot the questionmark :). How Could you improve the score that much?!

I'm looking forward to the 1.8 release!

Greetz
[LG Optimus 2x] SimDroid:
Nice! Based on v20i?

Im running v20i now, and its crazy smooth, even with stock LG launcher + widgets. It even has scandinavian LG keyboard..
[LG Optimus 2x] rosgr100:
great results! I can't wait to try your new release! Will this rom use as base the v20i? what speed do you run...1408mhz?
[LG Optimus 2x] Striatum_bdr:
Already said I think it's 20i. He's waiting Paul Modaco pre-baked Gr3 to be out as the 20i leak is coming from Paul.
[LG Optimus 2x] Deathmo:
Oo, that could take long. :rolleyes:

Mabey we get LG official relaise first. ^^
[LG Optimus 2x] SimDroid:
I found it on Google :)
[LG Optimus 2x] squide:
mine with 1.6 :) even 1.7 can't beat it..
[LG Optimus 2x] Wickie87:
Great news!

Were you able to look at the features I asked about?

Furthermore, what about the wpa_supplicant issue?

Will I be able to use 1.8 @ EAP WiFi networks without any modifications?

Thanks for your answers!
[LG Optimus 2x] Morghoth:
I'm using 1.6 version witch is probably (for me) the most stable.

Sometimes Go Launcher do weird things but nothing serious:D

And I have a question: Does anybody noticed that last version of Market (3.1.5) is unable to show some apps? For example Auto memory manager... I'm not sure if it's problem of ROM or Market itself.

Either way, thank You Topogigi for your hard work! Can't wait for your 1.8:)
[LG Optimus 2x] deep750:
Checked the app, it says that it isn't compatible with my device

quote in norwegian
[LG Optimus 2x] squide:
I wonder if there is any method to remove the OC daemon...
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
Sure there is. Edit /system/etc/init.d/S02aroc or delete it alltogether.

(or, as you can see from the script, installing any of the packages it checks for at startup will also disable it.)
[LG Optimus 2x] squide:
it will stop it from running, and is there anything left behind ? :)
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
The path to the binary is in the script: /system/xbin/andrev_oc. If you remove that you can of course also remove the directory with the max-min settings.
[LG Optimus 2x] squide:
Currently running 1.6 without the said script on my phone~

thanks for the info, and this may clear the stuff stopping me from upgrading to 1.8 :)
[LG Optimus 2x] spadb:
Can confirm rolling back to 1.7 Services.jar overwriting the one provided in 1.7-SP1 works a treat, can get a GPS fix in about 10-15 secs here in Tamworth, UK (even inside my house!). The one in SP1 takes forever to get a lock.
[LG Optimus 2x] franky_z:
same to me, previous 1.7 services.jar works! had to wait for the first fix about 90s but after that i get a fix in 10-15s inside at the window...:)

have to say that i did also this tweak (don´t know if gps.config is really needed):

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1066933

and flashed this for nokia servers (changes gps_brcm_conf.xml):

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/11251744/lgos-gps-nokia.zip

--> this is a fix for germany, you have to edit acNtpServer="de.pool.ntp.org" in gps_brcm_conf.xml to your country.

from german forum: http://www.android-hilfe.de/root-ha...-fuer-leute-mit-cm7-oder-ohne-hiddenmenu.html

perhaps this helps for some with gps problems...
[LG Optimus 2x] BritSwedeGuy:
For all those asking "WHEN?!" - the less you ask, the sooner it will be! ;)

FYI zero GPS problems for me with 1.7 SP1, (I am using ClockSync and FasterFix)
[LG Optimus 2x] squide:
enable wifi tethering, you'll see why there's SP1
[LG Optimus 2x] fire3d:
yes, can confirm this too, i flashed SP1 back to test, GPS Fix there is a nogo,

it finds up to 10 satelites but no fix ......
[LG Optimus 2x] :
No problem with GPS over here. Applied SP1 over 1.7 and also using ClockSync.

Stable fix in 5~10 sec.

J.
[LG Optimus 2x] Gingernut78:
In the v20i leak ClockSync is no longer needed as LG have included a configurable NTP time update function into the Date/Time menu and it works very well ; )
[LG Optimus 2x] rosgr100:
gps doesn't work too! I can find only three or four sats and i never lock on them!
[LG Optimus 2x] sahilkhurana:
Is there a download link for v20i ? :)
[LG Optimus 2x] stevvie:
I just tried my camera and it can NO longer see my external SD card. I get a message saying "External SD is not exist. Storage is changed internal SD." Yes in that bad english, thats the error that is shown. No How do I get the camera to goto external SD like it did before on either 1.5 or 1.6 ?
[LG Optimus 2x] Gingernut78:
It's a option setting once inside the camera app, you can choose internal or external.
[LG Optimus 2x] vivmar:
probably tomorrow...just asked to paul.
[LG Optimus 2x] Deathmo:
I believe it, when I see it.

Heard that to often, sorry.

And btw. I dont want Pauls roms.

I want the topogigi custom rom.

So the only thing I wait for Paul to relaise his rom, is that topogigi said that he would only relaise his rom, when Paul does.
[LG Optimus 2x] davjan:
topogigi most wait for relaise is version of v20i

because it is based on pauls kitchen

and you may relaise your version of v20i what is made with pauls kitchen the moment paul relaise his prebaked version of v20i
[LG Optimus 2x] spadb:
Well I don't know about your phone, but my WiFi tethering is working perfect via my Thinkpad using WPA2 PSK. In fact I'm using it to reply to your post. So copying the services.jar from 1.7 over the one in 1.7-SP1 has had no ill effect for me.
[LG Optimus 2x] zarkon85:
Hi, on my phone camera is not working... when I click to take a picture or change to video mode it do nothing. Tried 1.7 with and without sp1.
[LG Optimus 2x] davjan:
working fine here
[LG Optimus 2x] zarkon85:
Now working again, I'll try to install sp1 to see where is the problem...

Edit: now with sp1 it works. Problem solved.
[LG Optimus 2x] Thief777:
Agree...

I do not need the experimental kernel from Paula, I need a firmware optimized Stock.

Paul for a long time to play with kernel:(
[LG Optimus 2x] Topogigi:
This is partially true. 1.8 exists from the day the leaked v20i appeared on Modaco and I patched the base from the beginning by myself, not even following the kitchen thread because all the issues and bugs found and corrected there were present in all the other LG GB leaks already available, and I already knew how to solve them. So, the truth is that me and Paul are sharing the same base, but I didn't use his work to develop my v20i based release.

If you want my 2 cents, I don't agree with Paul's policy of not distributing the leaks he receives from his sources with the original content unmodified, because:

1) He is not the owner. LG owns them at least for the part that is not covered by GNU license.

2) That is against my own belief in free sharing informations and knowledge

Not sharing the base for development has several minus points, such as you are forced to develop all alone, and perhaps you lose your time looking for answers that someone already found. Boring and time consuming, in my opinion. Nevertheless, I DO RESPECT Paul's great work on our phone and decided to wait in any case for his prebake release. Opinions are opinions, but they aren't the things that are worth to live for. Respect is one of them. And I will cherrypick some of his mods as soon as prebake will be out for sure. He is really a great developer. :)

Anyway, here's the changelog for 1.8:

- Rebased on v20i with all the usual patches and mods of my previous releases.

- Back to old market: it will be replaced by the new one automatically after the first access, but this time you will not experiment issues with the "application is not compatible with this device" bug.

- Revised deeply the S08volt_scheduler script: I always asked myself why the standard script from pimpmycpu did not help in changing schedulers on boot, now I got the answer and you can freely change the scheduler and it will stick on reboot.

- Battery drain defeated: still not behaving like v10d but battery consumption is quite good.

- Cleaned /system/app and removed one file regarding LG remote support I forgot to remove in 1.7

- Deadline scheduler now is the default scheduler. Better than bfq in my tests.

- Removed extended poweroff menu as it was bugged. Waiting a new release from trapacska before putting it in back.
[LG Optimus 2x] davjan:
looking out to the update

I understand you about the fact that paul can not claim the rights to be the person that control when other people (like you) can spread there version of the rom because like you say it and stays the rom of "LG"

but I also understand you wait until paul spreads the prebake version because than you can use some of his cherypicks

what I realy want to say is I look out to the update and like the way you respect everybody's work
[LG Optimus 2x] Sckank:
Topogigi, are the v20i from you still as snappy as v20e? Love your work ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] :
That is 120% true

I have the v20i leaked but is not that good as topogigi's roms

So here comes the question

Will U release the rom before prebake Paul's?
[LG Optimus 2x] eraldo:
Will we be able to install your v20i rom over the 1.7 v20e version or will we have to wipe?
[LG Optimus 2x] davjan:
I recommend to always do a wipe , some apps like to FC if you don't wipe , most likely market , maps , and other google apps like to FC
[LG Optimus 2x] Sckank:
I'm pretty sure that we at the very least can restore /data, or what do you say?
[LG Optimus 2x] abdullah1985:
Im using 1.7 and it supports arabic in reading and writing ( no arabic in menu) will your 1.8 be supporting arabic ??
[LG Optimus 2x] davjan:
I think that will be no problem , but why don't you use titanium backup , or an other backup app?
[LG Optimus 2x] jay_snake:
Can you cherry pick the BBA support from his services.jar?
[LG Optimus 2x] Sckank:
Because it really fast and easy. But then again, I bought a license on titanium. So why not? ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] Topogigi:
There will be only one version and it will not wipe for people coming from 1.6 and 1.7

People coming from other roms, will need to install 1.6 (yes, 1.6. Not a mistake) and then flash 1.8 after the first boot.
[LG Optimus 2x] Topogigi:
Yes I will but not in first release. All the modaco addons from the prebake will be optional downloads.
[LG Optimus 2x] davjan:
will android market not FC because of the older version you wil use in 1.8 (if you dont wipe and come from 1.7?)
[LG Optimus 2x] sorcio91:
Can i ask you why 1.6 and only after 1.8?

Why not 1.7 and then 1.8? I'm confused xD
[LG Optimus 2x] Topogigi:
Finally you realized it! I always told you that support for arabic was included, but you never believed me! :D

Anyway, I have still to check it in v20i....let me see.....it works!
[LG Optimus 2x] jay_snake:
BBA support will be in the prebake. Looking forward to the support in your rom
[LG Optimus 2x] Topogigi:
Chefs receipts have misterious ingredients sometimes..... :)

1.7 often caused bootloops when installed from scratch, 1.6 is safer because of different filesystem optimizations. But when 1.6 is loaded, you can upgrade safely and further filesystem optimizations don't cause bootloops. I tested it thoroughly.
[LG Optimus 2x] Topogigi:
Maybe I did not explained it clearly. It will not be in my 1.8 first release but it will be available as an optional download.
[LG Optimus 2x] sorcio91:
Thank you for the explaination :)

PS: i made some nandroid restore to 1.7, do you suggest to reinstall the ROM (1.6->1.8)?
[LG Optimus 2x] Topogigi:
Yes. Never use nandroid to backup my roms, actual CWM is not compatible with optimized filesystems.
[LG Optimus 2x] Bir92:
I hope to get the 1.8 very soon because Changelog looks good!!!

Thank you for your time and work topogigi !
[LG Optimus 2x] myotepf:
Execute your convert-to-ext4 (piece of updater-script) after nandroid and all is good. No ? I do it to revert 1.7 after test my '20i modus Topogigi'... Thanks to your work.
[LG Optimus 2x] salisbury_steak:
As I have a slow internet connection during the weekdays. Can anyone please upload the services.jar from 1.7? I'd like to try it out since I'm having the same behavior on my end. It'll see around 7 satellites, but it takes forever to lock on.
[LG Optimus 2x] ryaneu:
can't wait for V1.8
[LG Optimus 2x] abdullah1985:
Hebehe yeah there is support for arabic but arabic alignment ( from right to left ) is not supported . But thx for that i really like your work.
[LG Optimus 2x] ilmancr:
patience..patience...cant hardly wait for 1.8..:)
[LG Optimus 2x] Topogigi:
This is smart.
[LG Optimus 2x] BTK12:
Small wonder is when the rom 1.8?
[LG Optimus 2x] rexren:
It will need 2 days that we can get 1.8 because Paul may release GR3 prebake tomorrow.
[LG Optimus 2x] akyp:
Adobe Flash 11 is available on Market now, and it seems to have solved performance issues with v20 series ROM. :)
[LG Optimus 2x] Wickie87:
@Topogigi So how about the Wifi problem? Has this been resolved? And did you look in to the features I requested, or not? Please respond.
[LG Optimus 2x] Bir92:
hey guys how do I use this one ?

ty
[LG Optimus 2x] myotepf:
Make un updater-script.zip where you keep only META-INF (copy your Topogigi-rom.zip, open the zip, del all except META-INF) and in META-INF\com\google\android replace updater-script. Install Zip with CWM like you do to install a rom.
[LG Optimus 2x] b3ndech0:
i guess i found a bug.

In cm7 i used the app "transparent clock", if i clicked the widget the clockapp opened automaticly. This doesent work anymore, i can place the widget without problems but the shortcut seems broken. I tried 1-2 other clock apps with the same result. What can i do?

edit: other problem i forgot: ife got a lot of browser crashes while surfing somebody else?
[LG Optimus 2x] Topogigi:
Already told you that I cannot test it here. For the remaining part, I will answer as soon as I can
[LG Optimus 2x] Wickie87:
Thank you for your answer. I know you can't test it, but I was wondering if you made some changes to the 1.8 wpa_supplicant file.

If so, would it be possible to send me the new version of wpa_supplicant? Then I would be able to test it.
[LG Optimus 2x] nearnine:
Thanks for this Super ROM btw ^^

But is there an AOSP lock screen mod available for Topogigi 1.7?

Everything's working fine for me in this rom but there's a 1 or 2 second delay when i press the power button to unlock the phone. I hope this can be fixed in the upcoming release.
[LG Optimus 2x] sorcio91:
You can try 2 methods to reduce this little lag:

-Edit /system/build.prop file. You'll find a line user.feature.lock_andy=true, change it to =false. This will activate the normal android lockscreen, not the LG one. In my opinion is a little bit faster

-Increase the frequency of the sleep_max file in /system/etc/andrev_oc. This will increase the speed of the phone when it's going to wake up, but this will decrease battery life. The allowed frequencies are:

1408000

1216000

1100000

1015000

800000

503000

389000

216000

IMPORTANT: i tried widget locker but it slows the wake up! It's confirmed by me...so...do not use it
[LG Optimus 2x] Gingernut78:
In v20i there is a new option in the date/time menu for ntp time server sync which is not available in v20e but quite handy.

But after checking it's really only an extra line in the build.prop file.

Just add this line, save & reboot:

user.feature.ntp=true
[LG Optimus 2x] abdullah1985:
:)

:) I know i have been annonying, i have a question though, is it possible to make a patch to make gingerbread roms support arabic, there are several patches for sg2 and htc phones which can be modified to be used in lg phones .
[LG Optimus 2x] salisbury_steak:
Yep, same here. Getting stock browser crashes too. Im wondering if its a stock browser issue, or if the rom is too aggresive in memory management.
