getting ready to flash this rom. ive been using some other CM7 and GB based roms and have been having issues with the android market. ive also used a few of the ICS roms, but they all have their issues (ICS, not the rom) so i went back to my stock backup. everything just works and i know if it aint broke dont fix it, but i would really like to try this one out. i like what i have been reading from other users so i thought why not!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] shovelhead83:
Its good.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] meniawy:
Keep trying..LOL..That's all i can do ha?"Keep trying"..LOL;)

Thanks Bro for your effort, you know what with such ROM and IC theme; definitely would same as IC.:rolleyes:

Honestly, so far i can't feel any improvement in IC edition over GB ..Only thing is theme..:mad:

This rom is amazing. The only problem is that it is, after all, stock. But Apoc made it into an amazing experience. The only reason I went back to EB is because I missed that smoothness that only AOSP roms provide. Definitely less battery life, but I think I can survive.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DsturbD:
so far so good

couple of things though, trying to update installed apps that came with the rom (titanium backup, youtube, flash) all fail the download, it says there is not enough space on the device?? this also happens when installing any other app

in titanium backup i do not see my backups that are on my sd card. i can see them in the file manager, but TB does not see them

when rebooting the phone it says the phone will shut down, it does reboot, but should it not say that instead of shut down? just asking
[T-Mobile LG G2x] buru898:
Haha I'll keep trying, and I'll release the ICS blue steel hybrid tonight after work, and call it version 0.1 since some things could be changed.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] meniawy:
Thanks Bro...waiting..:)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] buru898:
The theme is posted in Theme's and Apps section... it's coming along much better and way more easier than it was in the past actually. Give it a look, it's way better right now.

It's 3.28am so that's enough theme-ing for me tonight.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cyberbillp:
Inside tb are location settings for your backups. You have to change it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Spitfire:
Does the frameworkres file affect any speed/performance tweaks that Apoc put into the rom? Meaning, if you are starting with Weapons Blue Steel framework, rather than Bionix, will that affect anything or is it purely visual (icons, menus, etc)?

Either way, thanks for your work and bringing great themes to this rom :D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DsturbD:
ahh, thanks, got it

what about the market? i cant update anything or install anything from the market? says im out of space (im not)

**edit***

found it, you know using google DOES work LOL, it brought me right back here

clearing the cache and dalvik cache fixed my market issue
[T-Mobile LG G2x] buru898:
The theme shouldn't affect anything in the ROM, it's strictly visual. The only thing that was edited was the file that says what colors the font should be and the icons.

But then again, I did use blue steel's framework...

If it matters, I haven't noticed or seen any change at all in performance and I'm extremely aware with changes like that.

In the future I'll probably use the original apk's from bionix1.4 and only replace what is needed to be changed just to be sure.

Thanks Bro.. another Thanks button hit...LOL:D

I would love running this with a stock theme. Has anyone come across one?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mr. Apocalypse:
Dragon-G2x v1.1.1 (Repack 2) added to OP

So it seems Dragon-G2x never had init.d support, so i've unpacked it, added it in, and repacked it. The only thing i did was add init.d support to run the init.d scripts at boot like the stock kernel does. It's been added to the OP. I've been testing it for about 2 weeks, and it seems alot better. Let me know if anyone has problems with it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] meniawy:
Thanks DEV..appreciate your time Bro:D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] buru898:
I HIGHLY recommend not flashing a custom kernel.

Did 4 benchmark tests with antutu, with and without chainfire, and dragon kernel got me around 3600 (chainfire was slightly better) while stock always gave me 5400+ (with chainfire slightly better).

Just my 2 cents.

That's with both at 1ghz.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] theking_13:
Use Faux's OC/UV kernel, I got better scores than that with his. I HIGHLY recommend flashing that one. ;)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] buru898:
At 1ghz? And not setting the minimum and maximum CPU to the same speed (1000/1000 instead of say 312/100)?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] theking_13:
Yes, with the default performance governer.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] buru898:
Hmm, might give it a try then... but any custom kernel hates my phone, sadly... but thanks :).
[T-Mobile LG G2x] theking_13:
Aha also, if the OC/UV kernel doesn't play nicely with your phone, just use the stock one he posted. :D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mr. Apocalypse:
Ya'll don't have to use a custom kernel. I just post them for optional reasons. I believe in having options. :) If your phone performs best without a custom kernel then don't flash one. If you think your phone needs a little "help" by overclocking or undervolting, then go for it. Also, the date is set, v1.4.1 will drop this Saturday, I'm done with GB and ready to get back to work on ICS. I promise it WILL be the last.

Sent from my G2X XDA app cuz I'm stalking your mom....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] buru898:
Even non-overclocked hates my phone, sadly :p.

Hah I know sir. I thank you for your patience and amazing effort.

This is the only ROM, on any phone I've owned, where I honestly don't have a flash addiction.

It just baffles me how amazingly smooth and functional this ROM is... and the battery life is ridiculously good.

This ROM is as close to perfect as it can get.

My only bother, and it isn't your ROM, is, when on auto brightness, the LG camera will revert to whatever brightness is manually set.

Once again, you're amazing, and I love and appreciate you so much more for not gloating about your accomplishments and skills.

:).
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Spitfire:
This owns. I haven't touched my phone since flashing 1.3 and this will be it till a fully functional ICS comes out. Love your work bro.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] rosevilletoyota:
Thanks Again

I am looking forward to the update. I have me trying out the MIUI that was just released and like the customization. There Black ICS theme gives me a real ICS look. Which I can get that with your ROM.... Anyways plan to go back to yours on Saturday....Thanks Really looking forward to ICS but know it will be a few months till its Solid! thanks:D:D:D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] TheCoutures:
Hey see this ROM is getting an update and is still an active OTA Stock GB 2.3.3 rom which interest me greatly.

I'm currently running Weapon G2x 3.0_R1 but it is pretty obvious the DEV has abandoned that ROM for future projects which is fine but defiantly interested in a active rom as coming from the HD2 there was nothing but active roms.

Anyways has anyone come from Weapon to this ROM? My main concern is video chat with TMobile Qik and WiFi calling work as where my house is (of course go 2 miles one way or the other and your fine) is a cellular dead zone for any carrier so WiFi calling is a must.

Thanks
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cyberbillp:
Wifi calling is perfect, and I'm pretty sure qik works. Saw that a few pages back.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] stevew84:
I installed this for the second time, used to have it before. But foe some reason I have no signal what so ever. Its not my reception, because I am home and I always have 4g. Wifi works, though.

I've set the apns back to default, restarted, but nothing. Not sure what is going on here.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mr. Apocalypse:
v1.4.1 FINAL is released....

The OP has been updated to v1.4.1 FINAL. Also, since it is some minor updates, i see no need to do a full wipe if you're currently on v1.4, so there is a No-Wipe Quick Updater in the OP as well. :) If you're currently on v1.4, then you can use the quick updater to get on v1.4.1, without wiping anything. I'll be providing support as i see fit, but mostly i'll be on hiatus for a while, working on ICS. Soon, i hope to have something that can get on the same level as HFS, AOKP, or Owain's KANG. Again, i want to thank all that contributed, tested, and used this ROM. It's been one heck of a learning experience. Good luck to everyone and their G2x, and have a nice day. :D

Are you sure you didn't install this on top of another ROM, ie, did you wipe before flashing?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] stevew84:
I was using the dragon kernel in the op, I switched to faux and it worked fine...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] stevew84:
Anyway this rom is crazy smooth, better than the other gingerbread stuff out there.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] theking_13:
Thank you! Going back to this till you get ICS ready. If you need a tester, PM me, I'm definitely looking forward to it.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] buru898:
So I took a go at one of the "better" CM7 ROMs... it was smooth, but omg, it stuttered A LOT when typing and doing other things. It wasn't like "lag" per-say but it did stutter a lot on a lot of things.

Why I wonder...? This ROM doesn't do that, at all... so why does "oh so great" CM7 do this then?

Eh, I just restored my backup of this ROM. I'm still surprised this ROM out-performs even the "latest and greatest" CM7 ROMs.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] shovelhead83:
I'm a flashaholic but this is my stable go to rom also.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] stevew84:
main difference is that this is android 2.3.3, which was build for the g2x, so that is a leg up right thre. Weapon g2x is another really fast 2.3.3 ROM.

the cm7 stuff is all 2.3.7. That should explain some stuff.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lowrider262:
1.4.1 running great, think I'm gonna take a break from flashing new roms for a while with this one. Thanks for all your time & effort Mr. A, its definitely appreciated.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] theking_13:
Did you wipe and whatnot? Using EaglesBlood till I get a chance to back up this rom, then taking Bionix for a test drive. I always get buttery smoothness, even in the messaging app with some threads topping 5k messages. On OTA GB (any rom) I can't have it over 2k-3k because it will take forever to load.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] lowrider262:
battery mods

here's a couple battery percentage mods i whipped up in uot kitchen, wipe cache & dalvik then flash. should work for anyone on 1.4.1 but I'd suggest making a backup just in case:) the first one is battery % icon only and it changes color as the battery level goes lower blue>green>yellow>red. the second one is all green battery % + thin outlined lockscreen sliders.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] buru898:
Even coming from a fresh wipe, cm7.2 stutters often.

I've been using this ROM for a really long time, so it's instantly noticeable when things aren't as smooth and consistent as this ROM.

I just wanted to long press volume to change track feature, but it isn't worth it actually lol.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] stevew84:
What launcher r u using?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lowrider262:
launcher pro +
[T-Mobile LG G2x] stevew84:
Thx, very very smooth.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] wyldkard:
I had problems before with Dragon kernel with random reboots. Will your repack fix that?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mr. Apocalypse:
It may, see i never made changes to the source itself, just the ramdisk. The same thing that Lotherius did to Faux's kernel. Dragon & Faux's was using a pure stock ramdisk, and if it was never modified to run init.d scripts at boot, then it was like removing the performance scripts that the rom dev put in. It could be a strong possibility that your phone just doesn't like Dragon, just like my phone doesn't like Faux's. So there's no telling if it "will" fix the reboots, but i was using that repack while i was testing v1.4.1, and saw no negative effect, and since the permissions was finally set correctly and ran smooth with that repack w/o overclock, that let me know that my scripts were ran successfully at boot. It's completely up to you if you want to try it, no pressure on you, but its not a promise that it will fix the random reboots you've experienced :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] theking_13:
What about CM 7.1? 7.2 are basically nightlies.

Sent from my amazing G2x running EaglesBlood and Faux. :D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] buru898:
I suggest stock. Neither kernel likes my phone with default voltages and default speeds.

I don't know why but I get random reboots with anything but stock.

Sad story :/.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mr. Apocalypse:
Every phone is unique in it's own way, especially with custom roms. Just like humans, exact same parts, different way of working.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] buru898:
True... it just sucks how "different" each G2X can be.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Spitfire:
Buru have you tried clocking the "minimum" speed on a custom kernal to something other than the lowest possible? I was having a hella-time with SOD on faux OC kernel and that fixed it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lowrider262:
same here. i always set my minimum to 300+ and it pretty much solves the sod problem for me on any rom/kernel combination
[T-Mobile LG G2x] buru898:
As a matter of fact, I did when I tested out faux again. It did solve it, and tried to undervolt but that's a huge no for me lol.

So I ran some antutu benchmarks... and got the same scores I did with dragon...

At stock speeds, stock kernel outperforms them both under the same variables.

But then again, people say benchmarks don't make up the entire experience... but I did notice more fps with stock on Scrabble with friends, and six guns... pretty noticeable difference actually.

Hah so I'll stick with stock since it likes my phone best, and seems to do better. Battery life is ridiculously good with it to so why fix what isn't anywhere near broken :)?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lilaznpanda:
I installed the no CRT tv on/off animation and was wondering if there is a way to reinstall that animation?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
easy way to do it is just flash the rom over again... other then that wait for a response. That is a no wipe needed ordeal.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mr. Apocalypse:
Yes, you can flash the zip attached to this reply, it will give you both CRT On/Off, if you want one and not the other, let me know.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Spitfire:
Bah, on 1.4.1 I'm having a problem pairing my bluetooth headset (bluant Q2). It force closes when I try to pair it (process com.android.settings), then if I try to pair again it will say "incorrect password." This has happened on other roms and it seems to be completely random (for example, I was just on v1.3 and it worked fine), anyone see this before?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sambodie:
I can always pair but have another problem. If I turn off my BlueAnt (leaving the phone BT on), then try to turn on the BlueAnt latter, it does not connect. Happens on 2.3.3 ROMS for me. Not on 2.3.7 or ICS.

When you tried to pair the second time, did you hold the button on the BlueAnt? I got the incorrect password message when just touching the BlueAnt selection on the phone to pair.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Spitfire:
I just tried that but it did not work. It's still in pair mode it's just failing.

An idea I had was to clear the data under the settings process app in antek app manager. Would that be a bad idea? What kind of info would that delete? There are also bluetooth process apps in there as well that I could try to mess around with (unless it's going to ruin something).

Edit - what gave me that idea is that my email.apk was force closing and I cleared the data in that app and it worked afterwards. Is it worth trying with settings?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sambodie:
I don't know the answer to your question about clearing data in settings. I also had odd issues when I used the BlueAnt app. And if I restored any old system files from Titanium.

I don't think killing various BT process apps will kill anything in a bad way. Just might need a reboot. Some apps like Pandora seem to launch BT related programs, so it is worth a try in case something like that is hanging you up.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Spitfire:
Clearing settings data did not hurt anything, but it also didn't fix my problem lol.

I re-flashed the rom and paired the BT before flashing themes or kernals, and it worked. Completely random...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lilaznpanda:
Hey thanks a lot. Ill try this when i get home.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Spitfire:

One other question - I've updated to 1.4.1 (works like a charm, btw), and I just tried to reinstall the LG Cam 3.0 - I get a generic icon and when pressed, the camera says "Application is not installed on your phone."

[T-Mobile LG G2x] wcpatton:
Trying to switch from CM7 to this rom, a few things I miss though and am hoping maybe someone has solutions.

I'd like to be able to volume down to go from ringer to vibrate to total silence.

When I use the zip in the OP to remount my SD Card, if I try to connect by USB, I lose all of my SD mount.

-Can I transfer everything for the CM7 location to the new location?

I like the free floating ring unlocker with the custom apps for the unlock screen, can I get that anywhere?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] buru898:
I don't think any stock based ROM will do that for the volume. You'd just have to set silent to either vibrate, or not vibrate.

If you mean to change the mount points of your external SD to just be /sdcard then it's stated when you flash it that you can't connect via USB.

Download a lockscreen app from the market (go locker, widget locker, miui lockscreen) because this is stock, you can't do that unless a developer does it, and don't think anyone will.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] stevew84:
What Google apps should I be using with this? I have the apps for 2.3.5 but I didn't see anything for 2.3.3.

You don't need gapps withstand this, or any 2.3.3 rom for that matter.

None, because the Google Apps are built in.

Random Reboots

This is the best rom out there.. I am currently on his ICS version because I always like the newest stuff. I always think about going back to this Rom because I have never had an issue since his last 2 updates. I Never had a reboot issue. I know the developer does not like the nulifier but if you have flashed a lot and have never used it try it. maybe even format the SD card. You will get the cleanest install possible. Post again after you try this. I am Sure your issues will go away!:D
