I have GOOD NEWS!

I successfully flashed my first new rom and kernel!

Thank you every one for helping me!!

Thank you temasek!!

I love it. It is so smooth, fast compared to the stock rom.

I have a question. When I installed set cpu it always crashes when I click on the voltage tab. The cpu settings in cyanogenmod is is weird for me.

Also another question. How do I boot into clockworkmod recover. How long do you hold the buttons?
[LG Optimus 2x] jefbeck:
thanks for the build!

man, what is the normal battery usage for this kang? i was just wondering. like how many percentage will be used if (example) wifi always on, using adw launcher ex, brightness is in auto, yahoo messenger is signed in, no games, facebook is on, so what do you think? considering that i already calibrated my battery (stock battery).

CAF

Hi temasek,

How do you make the CAF work? I just tested it in video camera but it seems that the autofocus don't work. I tested it on a book panning the phone in and out but there was no autofocus.

Is the autofocus only for still picture? not for video?

I get FC's when recording HD mode in video after stopping a videoclip but its probably due to my class 4 sd card. It doesn't FC on High.

@tristan

Yeah set cpu force closes on that menu. Try Pimp my CPU instead
[LG Optimus 2x] salisbury_steak:
Congratulations!

About CPU overclocking and undervolting, that's not supported by the stock CM kernel. You will need to flash a custom kernel before you can play with setcpu or CM performance settings. I personally also use pimpmycpu though. There's a thread here in xda for the app. ;)

As for going to recovery, the hotkey is power + vol_down. Or... just use rom manager (included with your rom), there's a reboot to recovery button there.

Have fun!

Autofocus works on video. I notice that it doesn't seem to retroactive though. Autofocus is noticeable upon starting video.

HD video works on my phone btw. However, I do have a class 10 32gb card.

[LG Optimus 2x] Trystan34:
Thank you.

Is there also an app that dims the soft button lights?

I have one called Touch Key which works and did work with stock rom but it does not keep the settings after screen off. It did keep settings in the stock rom.
[LG Optimus 2x] koboltzz:
Simply adjust screenbrightness and you will see that button brightness will change also. If you use autobrightness, then untick that, change screenbrightness to your desired button brightness and tick back again autobrightness. In that way it will save your settings for softbuttons :)
[LG Optimus 2x] Trystan34:
I tried it but then the brightness of screen is to low and when I change it the brightness of the screen, the keys just change. I want the keys to stay on a constant low brightness but change the screen brightness on the screen with out affecting button brightness.
[LG Optimus 2x] eyronic:
Here you go.

[LG Optimus 2x] Trystan34:
Thank you.

One more thing. I don't know how to use pimp my cpu. What is the mV.

Set cpu was so much easier to use.
[LG Optimus 2x] eyronic:
Try this.

https://market.android.com/details?id=ccc71.pmw
[LG Optimus 2x] ron_gangte:
Use SetCPU instead. It is easier to use. :-)
[LG Optimus 2x] Medizinmann:
mV = millivolt = 1/1000th Volt

http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/millivolt

When you start Pimp my CPU it comes up with the stock setting and you can use it to under volt to save battery - that is basically it. Using voltages to low will lead to instabilities - voltages to high will drain your battery and might overhead the cpu.

As long as you don’t touch it the voltage(-table) set by the builder of the kernel will be used. I wouldn’t touch it since this - it usually makes more trouble than benefit and if you use ironkrnL or vodonkas kernel(the version with undervolt) it is already lowered.
[LG Optimus 2x] RohanAJoshi:
will try this soon.
[LG Optimus 2x] ranrick:
whats this: Change I5f0bdef1: Camera: Support CAF Gingerbread Release

what does CAF mean?
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
Its stated in my 1st post :p

CAF = Continuous Auto Focus ( for video recording )
[LG Optimus 2x] Sckank:
Any reports of bsod when charging? Had to pull battery today, but had a lot of tweaks though. Trying latest kang now, at stock. :)
[LG Optimus 2x] Lovrium:
Didn't you have Signal all the Time?

Maybe batt drain because seeking signal.
[LG Optimus 2x] el_charlie:
According to the screenshots, I had signal all the time. Because I was on wifi, mobile data wasn't used so that should have save batt drain.

I'll keep looking into that.

Cheers!
[LG Optimus 2x] salisbury_steak:
I personally use OSMONITOR from the market to export my logcat or dmesg logs. You may want to use that, or other members can maybe suggest an easier way.

@ el_charlie

as Lovrium says, your phone signal graph is pretty much gray, except for a moment, from the first screenshot. do you have a reception problem where you left a phone overnight ?

as temasek pointed out, LED blinking actually consumed more battery than LED dim continuous, because kernel needs to wake up to blink it. i lost ~15% over 8 hours last night and my LED noti was on. (don't remember since when though.)

try charge it again, (maybe reboot or clear logcat), let it sleep overnight.

if battery is drained, capture logcat (both main and radio)

---------- Post added at 01:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:26 PM ----------

alogcat from market ?

---------- Post added at 01:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:50 PM ----------

duly noted

however, i may be wrong, but it sounds like a simple touch interface bug. i will look into it over the weekend.

on a separate note, i use weather & news widget often during lunch hours to catch up w/ tech news, and i am annoyed by scrolling. if my scroll/fling gesture is not straight up or down, it just turns left or right to different section. quite annoying, which i have been meaning to look into... :(

edit: ok, i am totally wrong here. not a simple touch interface bug.

edit: i can't seem to reproduce it. i will keep trying, but anyone who manage to reproduce it, please post a logcat...

---------- Post added at 01:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:29 PM ----------

hmm. i was not aware of this noti-gesture bug, because i didn't know you could use gesture on notification. silly me... :confused:
[LG Optimus 2x] el_charlie:
So, the signal graph should be green??? :eek:

That's weird because I have signal here in my bedroom. Sometimes data is unstable, but never the signal. I can make/receive calls without problems.

If I start recording a logcat with "Catlog" app, the phone will sleep or that app will prevent the phone from sleeping???

Thanks for your help Mr. Pastime and also Temasek, You've been very helpful.

Cheers!
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
When on wifi, your phone signal should be as per your graph, so nothing wrong with that. Still only thing I find is your led blinking for 26 minutes.
[LG Optimus 2x] Wing_Zero85:
Tnx man. For me it' better a kernel with very little mod, like as you do with voodoo sound. When a kernel starts to be too much "tweaked" it has several bugs, like vadonka or setiron kernel...

I've suggested to insert the 32 mb ram hack because some time ago I'm searching it to implement myself and i've saw that was only a row to modify !

(but I can be wrong).

If you're going to insert oc capabilities, I suggest to NOT use e-penis! I think it's enough to OC up to 1.2 without e-penis or other disaster tweak...

btw, thanks for your stock kernel with voodoo sound. That's the only way to have voodoo sound without bugs! :)
[LG Optimus 2x] :
I had a full charge and I see my phone at 97% in morning. Using CM7 stock kernel and 824bb. So, problem is from a 3rd party application. I suggest removing the led blink app and try.
[LG Optimus 2x] DrummerMuppet:
Here's a screenshot of my device's stats. As you can see, Phone Signal is mostly green for me.

Maybe it has something to do with your BB/Ril combo? Which ones are you using?
[LG Optimus 2x] el_charlie:
218 BB and RIL
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
Planning #59
[LG Optimus 2x] IntenseColor:
I somehow improved my signal a bit by putting the preferred network type to GSM auto (PRL) from GSM only.

Here's a screenshot:

The first half was on GSM only. Second was on GSM auto (PRL).

I was in the same building the whole time.
[LG Optimus 2x] rskyline:
Better wait for it instead download #58 :D

[LG Optimus 2x] pastime1971:
try some systematic tests that you can think of to isolate the problem, such as

1. let phone sleep for an hour and check battery drain %

2. send yourself email, let notification blink and do 1.

3. change to led notification = dim light, do 2.

4. turn off wifi and data and do 1.

5. turn on airplane mode w/ wifi on and do 1.

---------- Post added at 06:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:25 PM ----------

why is your wifi turning on and off all the time ?

is your wifi policy "off while sleep" ?

just curious, because "off while sleep" will turn on mobile data (2g or 3g) and 3g consumes more battery... (unless mobile data is disabled or 2g only is selected)
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
I'm using notification restart, too. But Status bar restart looks even better, doesn't need any persmissions.

Does anyone have a proper way of reproducing this issue? I've had it myself but I don't know how to reproduce it. A logcat would be good to see what's going on - if I find some time after my exams I'll look into it.

---------- Post added at 03:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:34 AM ----------

Why don't you kindly ask vadonka for a CM7 Stock kernel with ramhack? His buildsystem can build all kinds of different kernel versions (ramhack, shared etc.) pretty fast.
[LG Optimus 2x] el_charlie:
Give me a hand here,

What are the 3G bands for the SU660??? I tried 824 BB and got no 3G.

I assume that BB 502 (which many people recommends) is from SU660, so I'll face the same issue.

Can someone give me a quick tip about the differences between BB??? For example: 725 - average voice quality - modest battery life.

Cheers!
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
There's no answer for that. There are many differences between all the devices and your country/provider will matter, too - you have to test for yourself.

I tried to collect some information on BB824 here - I'll add that some people won't have 3G. You did install the matching v10 RIL, didn't you?
[LG Optimus 2x] markop90:
My Wifi policy is set to "never", but the phone after a while disconnects Wifi... on the contrary in your graph is always active... have you an app to lock Wifi?this because if you set options like continuous pinging the battery drains a lot

IMHO Wifi is the culprit
[LG Optimus 2x] pastime1971:
@markop90,

are you using a tasker or 2g/3g app ?

my wifi sleep policy is "never", and my wifi stays connected.

with wifi on (802.11b), my battery drops ~2% per hour, so that shouldn't be the culprit. (and i have sip receiving call, and gtalk connected.)

besides, in el_charlie's screenshot, wifi was on only intermitently.
[LG Optimus 2x] salisbury_steak:
My wifi policy is set to "Never". And it is always connected too. (That's the expected behavior.)
[LG Optimus 2x] pastime1971:
i believe this is worth investigation. but i can't seem to reproduce it.

Nothing is wrong.

Vadonka offered me a site on his server to host my files. As a compliment, I put his name on my signature.

[LG Optimus 2x] umirza85:
Is there a way to show that my phone is charging on the status bar? since there is no led it is annoying to check in settings or close phone to check the lock screen? Im using the latest build and the percentage option from cyanogen settings.
[LG Optimus 2x] pastime1971:
uncheck percentage option. you will have battery icon w/ lightening inside, and level going up and down.

edit: doesn't percentage option show small battery icon which changes color when charging ?
[LG Optimus 2x] rskyline:
Have you tried to deselect percentage show and select it again? Because i have a little battery bar along with the battery percentage numbers

Enviado desde mi Optimus 2X usando Tapatalk
[LG Optimus 2x] pastime1971:
i remember that checking percentage option, you get percentage number right away, but small icon didn't at first. (don't remember what it took to show one though)

edit: just tried... setting it in portrait, you only get number. rotated screen, and icon appears.

edit: question is do you get icon change (color or something) when charging. i don't know because i haven't used it.
[LG Optimus 2x] afpapa:
I get the bar next to percentage to move up and down. No color change ate least when the battery is in the "blue zone"
[LG Optimus 2x] rskyline:
Well here shows some changes.. while charging shows filling the battery up and down till its get full and when your battery drops bellow 10 percent it turns red so yes it shows when the phone is charging

[LG Optimus 2x] zhehao:
I got this bug before as well.

I suspect it is the kernel problem.

Are you using 3rd party kernel?
[LG Optimus 2x] alakyr:
it's several time that my phone have random restart or anyway go back to the PIN window when it lost signal for a while...this, for what i remember, with build 5x but now i'm installing the 59 hoping to don't have anymore this problem
[LG Optimus 2x] IntenseColor:
I am using JuiceDefender. I told the app to turn on wifi every 15 minutes for 1 minute.
[LG Optimus 2x] pastime1971:
probably not kernel, but rom issue.

as temasek mentioned, here is a commit that tried to address it, http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#change,11989

i do not know if that commit fixed the issue completely or not.
[LG Optimus 2x] IntenseColor:
Some T-Mobile themes are missing the small icon next to the percentage.

It's available in the 3 default themes.
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
Definitely not completely resolved. On N1 CM7 nightly thread there are reports of same issue. Also confirmed by another KANGer who kangs 3 other devices...same issue.
[LG Optimus 2x] pastime1971:
it sounds like it is a well known issue.

i'm sure devs are working on it.

i could try debugging it, but i can't seem to reproduce it.

if anyone knows how to reproduce it, let me know.
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:

When #60 is available, pls support pastime1971 by testing it and providing feedbacks.

[LG Optimus 2x] unfugor:
thanks a lot for this rom, especially to the cm developers who really do great work, i am very happy with my phone now, but there is one problem left, sometimes after a reboot my phone does not connect to data, nothing fixes that but a reboot. the phone gets signal bars but no 3g or h icon and i cannot connect to the internet. are there any workarounds i have missed and if not how could i file a bug?
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
U selected WCDMA Preferred, WCDMA only, GSM Only, GSM Auto PRL, etc..? which one?
[LG Optimus 2x] xIceCream:
Lol. When u post your #60, I think I was too soon to download. All file hosting websites are not updated yet. Except from Vadokka's site. Lol :D
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
From now onwards, I will only upload to mediafire & minus.com when I'm home. Vadonka's site is FAST so I will upload to this only when I'm not at home :)
[LG Optimus 2x] markop90:
No and no. So I am the only who have this issue. I set a static IP too. If I remember correctly it was a common issue...
[LG Optimus 2x] el_charlie:
I was about to ask that.

I believe that setting doesn't survive a reboot by either setting it from Settings App or by entering *#*#4636#*#*. It switches back to WDCMA preferred after a reboot.

In fact, there's a typo in the Spanish translation. It says WCDA instead WCDMA.

Cheers.

EDIT:

The APN file has wrong settings for the Venezuelan carriers, the three of them. Can I edit it and attach it so you can submit it to the CM team?
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
I haven't tried gerrit submission. Maybe u ask pastime1971 first.
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
Do minus or mediafire have a "remote upload" function like rapidshare? Then you could just enter the link at vadonka's site and are good to go :)
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
Hmm ... I doubt it though cuz both are free. Anyway now I can't track how many downloads per build.....not that its important ..lolz.

If anyone knows that its possible, pls let me know.

Btw check out those new pickings, rather interesting features.

Thanks. :)
[LG Optimus 2x] el_charlie:
Well, I'll post it here so anyone can submit it. It's the CM's apns-conf.xml with modified values for the three Venezuelan Carriers: Digitel, Movistar and Movilnet. All other values are untouched.

I tested myself and works very well.

Also, here's the typo I was talking about.

I don't know if this is the right place to discuss this, but setting ro.telephony.default_network to 3 sets the radio in PRL, but entering in the INFO menu (*#*#4636#*#*) it still says WDCMA Preferred. In Settings it still says WCDMA/GSM Preferred (which is the PRL).

Another, more related issue to CM7 is that I set the heap size to 48m in the CyanogenMod Settings, after flashing a new KANG the setting remains the same but in the build.prop says 32. Even after changing it to different values in CM Settings, 32m stays the same. I had to manually change it in build.prop.

Cheers!
[LG Optimus 2x] pastime1971:
can you try DHCP and see if it stays connected ?

somehow i doubt that static IP vs DHCP affects sleep policy. i would be very surprised if so. :eek:

---------- Post added at 08:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:59 AM ----------

build.prop is default value (at the time of compiling), and as far as i know, the file doesn't get changed. SysmtemProperty is what ROM actually uses and user changes and it is saved somewhere in /data.

i guess build.prop value is used if user set value doesn't exists yet, and once it does, SystemProperty has priority over buld.prop ? (

edit

: and if you do factory reset or data wipe, it gets used again as default ?)

edit: someone please correct me, if i am saying wrong things...
[LG Optimus 2x] :
build.prop does get overwritten on flashing new ROM. Hence, I add the nitz fix by flashing the ril in which I add the entry after a rom flash.
[LG Optimus 2x] el_charlie:
Would you kindly take a look on my modified apns-conf.xml???

If it's ok, please submit it. It would be very helpful for Venezuelan users. The APNs in that file we're mostly wrong. I always had to modify them to get mobile data.

I don't know why anyone didn't submit that before.

Thanks in advance.
[LG Optimus 2x] pastime1971:
there are two more lines different in your apn-conf.xml. (Free Mobile and Free Mobile MMS)

edit: oh, i see. it is a commit that temasek cherry-picked.

---------- Post added at 08:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:24 AM ----------

i meant that user changing values from Settings doesn't get saved to build.prop, but goes to SystemSetting (?) somewhere in /data.

---------- Post added at 08:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:27 AM ----------

it just came to my mind.

if i make "ro.telephony.nitz=GMT" to init.d and put it on custom_backup_list.txt, probably you don't have to re-apply that zip every time, right ?
