MINOR UPDATE

Updated to 12-07.

If you installed 12-06 without issue, then you do not need this update.

This update fixes the previously reported issue where the installer fails to install if you have no files in the /system partition (ie, you formatted it or used the scrubber).

EDIT: I'm getting random reboots tonight :(... someone should sack this rom's dev.... oh wait... Seriously tho.. maybe I've done too many clockwork backup/restore on my currently running copy... Phone hasn't rebooted this much ever.

EDIT 2: Tried CM7 "for fun" between flashes.... Guess what? That "can't reboot to recovery bug" ? Exists in CM7... I had to power off and use hard buttons to get recovery, it kept rebooting the Rom when I was telling it recovery. Once IN recovery, I selected "Reboot Recovery" from the menu -- and it rebooted the Rom. So it appears that not booting to recovery consistently is either a hardware issue or maybe a CWM issue. But I am not going to put a Recovery option on the power menu that does not work consistently. I may put the reboot option back, since that's what the G2X loves to do most ;)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] overground:
See, that's the weird thing...Reboot to Recovery has always worked for me on this ROM (when it was still implemented). One possible explanation is that I use the recovery which defaults to use ExternalSD. I'm interested to find out if the reason why it fails for some is due to using the InternalSD version. I have never tried CM7 on my G2X, however, and I doubt I ever will.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
Reboot to Recovery on the P999 and P990 is different then all other Android devices. Regular root programs that can do this on other roms don't work on the 2X/G2X. The LG 2X Recovery Reboot app on the market addresses this issue by explicitly telling the device to boot recovery from the exact partition it is installed on. If the reboot to recovery is working for you, my guess is that you are booting into fake flashed recovery because you have installed it using ROM Manager. There is a file on the sd card that bootstraps the fake flashed recovery.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] overground:
You are wrong. I have been using the NVflash externalSD version from krylon since I've had the G2X. I have never installed a recovery via ROM manager on any of my devices.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] substanceneil:
I also have nvflash cwm external SD version and have been able to reboot into recovery 90 percent of the time with all Tsugi versions. I can recall at least one time that reboot to recovery from power menu led to a straight reboot without animation. Reboot2x also works.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Beekersguy:
Is "AS STABLE AS IT'S GONNA GET" synonymous with "Development for this ROM is done"?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] avio07:
I can't get past the Touch the android screen I keep touching him and it won't go further... WTF? He's starting to feel a little molested here. I had high hopes of stability. Coming from MIUI, wiped and cleared up everything and followed all posted instructions.

---------- Post added at 08:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:28 PM ----------

Is the quadrant score of 4000+ with overclocking or just normal for this rom with the optimizations?

Please help me fix my issue, why can't I go beyond the touch the android screen when it boots up??
[T-Mobile LG G2x] wgrant:
Did you install gapps? I had this problem on a previous rom and it was because of that.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bmann_420:
Updated the Stock GB theme

XDA Thread: HERE

My site - Download: Here

I would test, but i have to leave.

@lotherius,

When the theme is 100%, ill let you know and throw it up on the post 3 :D

Im trying to finish the colorized and get the Stock GB look 100%. I also started a port for Weapons, just spreading things to thin... lol. I can't forget jboxers rom also.

Edit:

Just realized i missed the teal overglow on the boxes. Have to fix that in 3.2 later tnight... bloody hell
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lotherius:
So you're using the 4.x CWM? I'm using 5.0.2.7...

One issue I (personally) have is that I never really took the time to get to *KNOW* the G2X before diving in to fix things I didn't like! I got this phone at Halloween. So I never spent a significant time getting to know which issues are actual hardware issues and which issues are real phone issues. It just bugged me that if I wanted an overclocking kernel on a stock Rom, everyone assumed that would mean I had to have long boot times... So I fixed that and just kept hacking ;)... I had a Vibrant before, which if you were willing to use Froyo, everything was 100%... So that's the standard I expect here and it frustrates me when I can't get it.

Valid question - but no development is not done. I wouldn't have gone through all the effort to get a smart updater script going if it was. What it means, is, some of the stability bugs are likely not going to fall soon. I do plan to do more with this Rom (unless LG drops ICS insanely soon like that's gonna happen). However, there will probably be a few test versions before the next "stable" version.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] avio07:
I thought this was stock with gapps? It doesn't say anywhere to install gapps on top of the rom.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lotherius:
No need to install Gapps.

What's going on in the background while the Android guy is on the screen is the initial SD Card media scan. Sometimes the phone will be a little slow while that goes on.

If you have corrupt files on the SD Card (including even thumbnails which tend to get corrupted often with all LG Roms), then it can cause issues with the media scanner.

If it were me, I'd back up all the files on my SD Card, format the card, and try again. Once things are running, put files back on the card. However, I always recommend deleting thumbnails on a regular basis due to their habit of "becoming foul"...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] avio07:
This doesn't happen with any other rom though? I went to using Weapon, no issues whatsoever with SD card... also is the 4100 quadrant score with overclocking kernel?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lotherius:
I installed from the 12-7 installer that I uploaded after trying out both Galnet MIUI and CM7 last night without issue... I'm personally leaning toward a media scanner issue.

Your logcat does show flex operator information, but it also shows two other repeating messages. The SetupWizard "Not Continuing" message indicates the setup wizard is waiting on SOMETHING.. and the media scanner is up to nearly 1000 thumbnails generated, if you notice, it is incrementing by 1 every time it repeats. So it is doing something, and that's probably what the setup wizard is waiting on to finish.

What happens if you clear the SD Cards? I know that's a little drastic, but it would eliminate the media scanner as a problem...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Beekersguy:
Pure awesome. Thank you! I can't wait to see where you go with this.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] overground:
What's GLS? Clearing what accounts?

Sorry, clearing my sdcard(s) <backup/restore> would take way too long right now.

I'll try booting without the external to see if that fixes anything.

Anyway, I highly doubt that is the issue.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lotherius:
I understand.... I only recommended it because there are 2 big things I see in that log: One item saying it can't continue, and one that is actually running, which is the media scanner. I've seen media scanner issues before, so I wanted to see if that could be eliminated.

The other option would be to use the scrubber script and then reflash clean if you haven't.

As far as the GLS error... I haven't seen that before ever, and a search doesn't show many results. Some of them do refer to GAPPS issues, but I haven't changed any of the Google services between this and the last release. There are a couple of issues I could look at, but without being able to reproduce the issue myself, it would be hard to know where to start.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] overground:
Booting without external sdcard changes nothing (just poweroff>remove card>poweron).

D/L the 12/7 as the 12/6 won't work after scrubber.

Will post back.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lotherius:
I really appreciate your patience - I know how frustrating these things can be..

I'm doing a titanium backup right now so I can do some test flashes and see if I can find a scenario that triggers the problem myself.

You have been using the stock kernel, correct? Or did you use the OC kernels?

*technical bit*

The only issue I can think of that would relate to the setup wizard itself is the possibility that it is signed incorrectly. Since I had to resign the entire Rom to get Toggle2G to work, that's possible. I redid the signing for the 12-6 release since some un-resigned versions had snuck their way into my copies. If that were the case though, I would think all installs should fail... If I can reproduce the problem, though, I'll try it with a google-signed setup wizard rather than self-signed.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] overground:
We have bush! :p

Scrubber + 12/7 worked fine.

Unfortunately I don't know which .zip got it working since I used both. :confused:

Damn, I should have just flashed the 12/7 without scrubbing first.

Only stock kernels for me.

EDIT: Apparently GLS= Get Location Service
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lotherius:
If the 12-7 worked then the issue was an upgrade problem... Still wish I knew the ultimate cause. The *only* difference in 12-6 and 12-7 is in the install script itself, which would completely stop if you had an empty /system partition (ie, used the scrubber)..

The scrubber ensures that you have a fully wiped and reformatted /system, /data and /cache partition, and get the ext3 kernel completely reinstalled as well. ProTip is that if you want to flash to an ext3 rom after using an ext4 kernel, and the ext3 Rom doesn't format partitions itself (some don't), then the scrubber will prep the phone for the Rom.

EDIT:

Good to know the meaning of GLS.... Still not sure why it would fail. I *have* noticed that sometime it is better to wait until you have signal before starting the setup wizard as it can be laggy if you try it before you get signal. Maybe related?

EDIT 2:

And nobody comments about all the work it took to get Bloater working with more than just GPS configs? Owell, enjoy ;)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] overground:
Sorry, I probably would have noticed had I ever used Bloater.

I'm sure your additions are fantastic. Thank you. :)

In any case, thanks for all your work.

I sent a donation a couple of days ago.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lotherius:
Nah, the bloater comment wasn't aimed at you. :)

Thank you very much for the donation! Donations keep me caffeinated.

Btw, would any donators object to being thanked in the Credits on the Rom? I'm one of those people that worries that people might not want to be publicly identified as donators ;)

Btw, I noticed on today's Bionix 3 install instructions:

So apparently others agree, the android is not to be touched too soon, LOL...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] overground:
LOL, I doubt you'll run into any arguments about the donators list.

Don't think there's too many "anonymous" donators on XDA, let alone donators period. ;)

EDIT: Shutdown now works for me. Yay! :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
You're right about that. I have had people says "thanks and donation" in a thread but no donation ever comes. For all the work I have done here I have received one donation and that's it. Not saying they are expected but when you get one it is welcome and gives you a motivational boost (along with the extra caffeine as donations go into my coffee fund). A lot of people say they are going to send one but never follow through. In the past I have donated to projects like Cyanogenmod and others I believed in.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] overground:
Well, you have 2 now, LOL.

I know you were not soliciting donations.

You've done a lot of work here as well, and (if I'm not mistaken), you were the first to bring the 2.3.4 build here to XDA.

Much like lotherius, you are very active in supporting your threads and that is to be appreciated.

Thank you.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kharnage:
I'm stuck on the "touch the android" screen. Whenever I touch it it just has a green glow and nothing happens. I flashed several roms before and they all worked but I don't understand why this isn't working. I even reflashed and rebooted it. Any help?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lotherius:
If you read the posts immediately before yours, you'll see that a couple of other users had the same problem, and the solution was to do a complete wipe (using the G2XScrubber I have for download in post #3)...

Can you tell me what you did before flashing? What Rom did you have installed before? Did you manually wipe?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kharnage:
I tried that and it's a brand new G2x. It had stock GB before and I just flashed cwm then cleared everything and flashed your rom right after that
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lotherius:
When you say "cleared everything", what steps did you take? And when you said "I tried that", which did you try? G2XScrubber? I can not reproduce the issue, and am trying to get detailed information so that I can...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kharnage:
I just tried the scrubber and it works now, thanks so much. Also before I wiped the entire thing I forgot what it's called, the cache and dalvik as well.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lotherius:
Thanks...

So... what's established is, everyone with the issue actually did try to wipe ahead of time... And that using the G2XScrubber fixes it. The G2XScrubber does a filesystem format (instead of just a wipe)... The updater script is supposed to do that ALSO though if you're not upgrading.

So .... *puts on thinking cap*....

Has anyone had any issues when just doing an upgrade from a previous version of Tsugi (with the 12-7 version)?

This problem only appears when you've actually wiped manually?

Still can't reproduce it as I've tried that myself, but it tells me some things I might try to patch in the updater script...

Though it's not 100% critical if it's not blocking no-wipe upgrades, since G2XScrubber is a workaround that seems to work for everyone so far...

EDIT:

Oh, and I was going to thank your post kharnage, but I just got a message I've never seen before from the forum: "Sorry, you are limited to five thanks per day". I guess I'm too generous with the thanks...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
Sometimes if the phone is not done booting up and it is not ready it will do that. You can also try touching all four corners starting with upper left in a clockwise pattern. That should bypass that screen entirely and go to the home screen.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lotherius:
wow, I remember that shortcut from the G1 days.... lol...

I do believe that the problem lies partly with media scanning during bootup. What I'm not clear on, is the connection to how the wipe is done before installing. Users manually wiping before installing should *prevent* problems, not create them. Just odd. Since the problem appears to be new, it is probably something I did in the installer. Just.... doesn't make sense, really.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] shovelhead83:
First flash with new update I came from jboxers 2.3.4. I did no manual wipes and had no issues. About an hour or so ago I came from bionix. I forgot I did have to wipe. But I did a factory reset wipe, cache and dalvik. Flashed rom then kernel and all booted up fine. Hope this helps.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kharnage:
No need to thank me, I thank you for helping me fix the problem.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ljaypham:
Hi. I might sound rediculous but I can't see flash website on my phone. Since I started switching to this room (version before 12/06) I could not see flash content. Now I am able to hit the update button for flash on the market but it said 'package not signed' and did not let me update flash

And still. No flash on my phone.

I'm sorry if sb already answered this. I tried but could not find it

Thanks in advance
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lotherius:
Flash player is *extremely* picky about versions and matching build signatures on the rom... *sigh*... If you're having this issue, then you need to completely uninstall Flash Player. This includes uninstalling any updates you've installed, as well as the original app in /system/app/LibFlashPlayer.apk. Then reboot your phone and install Flash from the market fresh.

I'm guessing you did a no-wipe update from an older version, correct? Also if you restore Flash Player with Titanium Backup it can cause this issue if your old flash has a different signature.

As far as removing the LibFlashPlayer.apk, that can be done with either Root Explorer or Titanium Backup.

I was hoping to keep it bundled, but there seem to be just too many recurring issues with Adobe's insistence of exactly matching the Rom's build signatures. I will probably remove Flash Player completely in the next version and leave it up to the market completely as to which version to install.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ljaypham:
Omg. First time I ask a question here and got reponse so quickly. U guys r just amazing. Flash working now. :)

Thanks alot
[T-Mobile LG G2x] TerryMathews:
Installed 12-07 tonight after a scrub and I've come across an issue I didn't have on 11-28: location-aware apps aren't able to grep the location. Maps can see where I'm at just fine, and Maps-based apps like Latitude can as well. Nothing else can. Movies (Flixster), google.com from the browser, 3d clock widget, none of them can retrieve the current location. And I do have location sources available in settings and not blocked.

It can't even determine my location via my AP, and mine is one that Google has scanned. Other ROMs, including your 11-28 version, report my AP with 5m accuracy.

I have no idea what regressed location services, but I hope you can figure it out because I love your ROM otherwise.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lotherius:
Will check this out and make sure I haven't done something stupid. Most likely has to do with signing if I did.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] overground:
I've updated 2x no wipe coming from 11/23.

If I remember correctly, 12/2 and 12/6.

Phone worked, but there was the lingering shutdown issue.

Wiped, installed ICS.

Flashed 12/6 again, but can't remember if I also manually wiped or decided to test the updater script to it's fullest. I believe the latter.

That resulted in the GLS failure.

Scrubbed and installed 12/7 and you know the results.

One thing I did notice is that Network Location was disabled by default, and that could very well be the issue with the GLS. Although I did also initially decline the Anonymous location data offer from Google, so that may have also set it to off, I don't really know.

Haha....Wow, I totally forgot about that shortcut from the G1 days. ;)

Tried AD2P on the ride home. Barely any stuttering using the new Music.apk which, unlike the previous builds, was hardly tolerable when data is being used. Very nice. :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lotherius:
Just tested GPS again on my way to get some Taco Hell.. little slow to lock but I am used to that. It did lock though and worked. I have noticed T-Mobile network time is off so I've been using NTP Sync. Time being off can slow GPS lock.

EDIT: Wow... Tapatalk made the image huge. Edited to make it an attachment instead.

EDIT 2: About the GPS issue. If you did the no-wipe update there might be issues? Not sure... This kind of thing is why so many devs just go down the "ALL WIPE ALL THE TIME" route and don't do no-wipe updates. When you go changing configurations and system files, even minor things, sometimes old configurations either become invalid or unreadable causing issues.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] avio07:
After installing Weapon Rom, I was able to use scrubber and get your rom working.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bmann_420:
Okay, updated the stock GB theme with the stock battery, and an accurate battery mod as well. Ugh :D

Both tested and confirmed. If anybody actually notices something different, then let me know in the official thread.

Figured this would be somewhat public + PM status.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] TerryMathews:
I wiped everything and restored no backups. All fresh. And Maps works, its just other location-aware apps.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lotherius:
Personally, I could NOT live without Titanium backup! However, the ONLY system file I ever restore is my wifi passwords. Having to bug everyone I know for their router passwords again would be a huge hassle.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kuhla:
Progress report: I was not entirely sure if I needed to use G2X Scrubber or not since I was using Oyasumi kernel but I downloaded 12-7, rebooted into CWM, installed from zip, rebooted. Assumed the "intelligent" installed would take care of it. Seems to have done the upgrade intelligently. I was able to update flash from market successfully. No other issues at this time. Only tested wifi.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Lowgo:
I ran into another issue with bluetooth. Using my bluetooth earpiece and the stock voice calling app, the call is initiated properly and connects, but as soon as the connection is made, the screen goes black and nothing will bring it back. The call connection will continue, but I have to hard reboot the phone to get the screen back. I thought this may be a conflict with some other app on my phone, so I did a complete wipe using the Gx2Scrubber and reinstalled a clean copy of the 12-7 version. I tested it without reinstalling any apps and it did the same thing. If I initiate a call manually (instead of with the voice app), and activate bluetooth, it works better, but still has issues.

I'm curious why I haven't seen more bluetooth problems listed in this thread. Is it just my phone and this ROM? Or, does nobody else using this ROM rely on bluetooth? For me, it's a necessity to have a functioning bluetooth.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lotherius:
I have noticed a little flakiness with Bluetooth myself. Not totally sure what is going on with it,but will definitely take a further look at it when I have the chance.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] substanceneil:
I am still having this download error (see my post earlier). I am currently using 12-7 tsugi, still stock kernel. Just to check, I restored a nandroid backup of xboarder's 2.3.3 with all of my same apps, and download works normally. Then I installed 12-7 after wiping, no apps, etc, and the error persists.

Is anyone having this issue? Any ideas on how to fix?

(attached is a screen shot of the error).
[T-Mobile LG G2x] C0dy:
Same thing was happening to me. Download Astro File Manager, go into preferences and enable browser downloads should fix it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] plumeroad:
Not sure if it was mentioned before, but I noticed the /etc/hosts file contains ad blocking entries that may be causing your issues. I know I had some downloading problems until I cleared them out.

BTW, I love this ROM! Thanks lotherius for your work on this.

Moving to this ROM from EB 2.3.3.

Tsugi-2011-12-7-0007.zip

James Bond edition. Oh yeah.

---------- Post added at 11:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:27 AM ----------

Looks like I'm getting the "unable to touch the Android" bug. I'd like to provide as much help as I can.

I was running EB 2.3.3, CWM 5.0.2.0

My process was:

Turn off phone. Turn on phone to recovery.

Wipe Cache.

Wipe Davik.

Wipe Battery stats.

Factory Reset.

Run G2XScrubber.

Run Tsugi Install.

Run Tsugi LED dimmer.

Reboot.

On first boot, got Media crash. Shortly after "radio" was denied Super User, then...

Problem.

If I click, the Android lights up, but it doesn't proceed.

Let me know how else I can help.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] overground:
I would run the G2X scrubber again immediately followed by a reflash of 12/7, then reboot. Wait a few minutes before attempting to touch the Android :p.

Assuming that worked, go back and flash the LED dimmer.

EDIT: There's a fix for the Radio being denied SU in post #2
