Just look at above line and at the same time notice Temaseks laughng smiley avatar. It sure sounds like Temasek is laughing on all noobs like us and saying "do it right, kids!". he he he.:D

I flashed 67 on 63, just wiped dalvik. but lost StockCamera by Kostja_V_CM7. Reflashed and it was all ok. I dunno why but I also flashed voodoo sound. Was that necessary if I want voodoo effect? Or it is included in 67 ? bit confused as i m noob. :D

EDIT: Sorry forgot to mention, I dunno its just my observation or not, but before this rom flash I flashed Baseband 1120. Signal was weaker before with previous version of roms but on 67 the signal seems improved. It may be due to my carrier Vodafone also, as many complaints of instability were coming since last two weeks from various parts of city. But finally it seems my device is working bit strong on BB1120 and Getril1120V20l combo with 67.

Will test some more time and will post more results.

Stock CM kernel doesn't include voodoo. If u want voodoo with stock kernel, flash the kernel from me. Or else flash any custom kernel.
[LG Optimus 2x] cmahendra:
great temasek

@temasek

thanks for quick reply. i always flashed this on all recent roms from you. CMKernel-O2x-7Feb12-Voodoo.zip really gave great results on some action movie videos. Thanks a lot.

I wish the "real" voodoo features would get enabled for our 2x - but I think this chapter is closed :(

[LG Optimus 2x] cmahendra:
real voodoo?

real voodoo features? :confused: you mean voodoo sound control app from market?
[LG Optimus 2x] new2city:
It's a long story... Anyway, assuming you don't know this, but you need to install the voodoo app from market to use the "limited" features. Sorry, if I assume wrong.
[LG Optimus 2x] salisbury_steak:
Yeah. I stopped bothering with voodoo too. As I use in-ear earphones so the increased volume doesn't really help. :(

I do wish the phone has increased speaker volume though. Oh well. You get some you lose some. :)

---------- Post added at 09:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:03 AM ----------

The only enabled feature in voodoo sound for the O2X is:

increased volume output via headset.

Nothing else.

Sad but true.

If you felt that you had frequency changes or louder speaker volume output, it's most likely placebo. Kinda like the Bravia hack. Or battery calibration. :D

@pastime1971

I don't mind everytime. :D
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
True.

I'm also not using voodoo kernel. I'm on volume+ which does the same and more.
[LG Optimus 2x] new2city:
@temasek and @pastime1971

is it possible to put the pdroid files on vadonka's server as well? Can't access minus or mediafire at work .....
[LG Optimus 2x] salisbury_steak:
A word of warning for people who will try Volume+...

It conflicts with CM7's DSP manager. You'll need to freeze that before installing Volume+. (I'm personally just on DSP manager though. :))
[LG Optimus 2x] new2city:
nowadays, I don't have time to use the media playing feature of the o2x, too busy flashing kangs and roms..
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
@pastime: thanks for the PDroid included kang - gonna flash it right after the final exam at thursday.

@temasek: Hold #68 back until at least friday please :D

Just kidding - PDroids windows installer should do the job as well :)

@voodoo discussion:

Exactly - the LG 2x has a great WolfsonMicro WM8994 hub inside, which is, theoretically, capable of giving us a great (way above average) call, speaker and headphone quality.

But, as always, LG managed to to ignore standards and put a hacky solution which would hold the hardware back (sounds familiar with other issues on this phone right?)

References: here here here and here.
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
True

I had DSP frozen since 1st build.
[LG Optimus 2x] cmahendra:
Obviously I dont know this. If I am not wrong if I flash temaseks voodoo kernel I should be able to use voodoo control app, right? Or does this control only increase volume with Volume+?

Oh thanks for this info, some fog is cleared.

How to get this Volume+. Its an app or just a tweak with a flash file? If flash dont flash 7feb voodoo kernel will it disable DSP feature?

I read little bit about this WM8994 chip on O2X before, and I thought it works but seems no decent driver and controlling app is provided by LG. Are there any good driver/apps which can exploit the quality of this chip?

@all

Is there any WOW Surround Sound app which can boost sound quality for original lg earphone?

Sorry for so many Off-topic questions, but I hope its not only me, every new member would like to know that. :confused:
[LG Optimus 2x] Ximo F. Verde:
I had no idea that the o2x has a 2in/4out 24/96 audio interface with 100dB SNR!! It is quite amazing actually! Of course, apart from LG not implementing a proper driver for it, there's also google itself who has done absolutely NOTHING the last 3 years (There's a huge thread about it on android forums) regarding low-latency audio (and even less regarding MIDI) capabillities on th OS. Its Google's polite way of saying: 'If you are a musician or a sound tech, better get yourself an iOS device'. After 3 years of waiting, i can say that message is received google, thanx. The one and only reason this is my last android phone, unless something radical changes in the next few months, which i seriously doubt..

EDIT: And also 'ReTune™ Mobile 5-band, 6-channel parametric EQ'.... such a waste!!!

EDIT2: Sry for the mini-rant, but you can tell that im not alone here.. http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=3434
[LG Optimus 2x] :
Actually, the Voodoo sound dev, supercurio, just said he's resuming work on it. Don't get your hopes up to high, he doesn't make any promises if he's getting it all to work for our device, because of crappy LG implementation...

[LG Optimus 2x] alncool:
I've starred the issue. Hope a lot of people there do the same. Its priority could be passed to High if we got enought votes...
[LG Optimus 2x] Ximo F. Verde:
You are probably right, but im afraid that google has missed the train for good mate. Apple´s coreaudio&coremidi implementations for iOS are having spectacular results on new and ported-from-osx audio software. Using the same architecture means versatillity-compatibillity hence so many bigname (and even more smallname) developers have already done wonders (see Korg, IK Multimedia, Native Instruments etc). Make no mistake here: Its not that Google hasnt heard of/ is not aware of the issue. They just DONT CARE because for them, the music/sound industry/professionals is nothing but a small niche market compared to the millions using gapps for example. There are about 2 1/2 decent audio apps for android (well maybe 3 or 4 lol), obviously none of them in need of low-latency audio, while the appstore is filled w 100s of them (many of them of v high quality), let alone the vast hardware (i/o interfaces, MIDI controllers etc) built for the platform. I am a big android fan, hence insisting on buying android devices, but what is but a small detail for google makes a huge difference for me. If things dont seriously change by the end of my o2x's lifetime, im definetely going to 'the dark side' (sadly).

Thats all, sry for the threadjacking. Great work temasek, thanx for this wonderful rom. btw, did you see that post regarding hwa on the android browser using that libwebkitaccel.so ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2DZnie3u0YI ) ? The video shows great results. Could this find its way to our o2x and if not, can you (if you have the time and can be bothered) explain us illiterates why not? thanx again and sorry for the rant
[LG Optimus 2x] :
That's not how I read his post. You have other info? Anyway, we will get ICS eventually, wont we?... :D
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
If I am supercurio, why would I continue with GB support when ICS cm9 is in progress? I would definitely put my effort on cm9 support.

Anyway he did mentioned that. Perhaps I misread, perhaps not but that's not important so long as supercurio said he will continue this project of his.
[LG Optimus 2x] mipr:
@temasek - first of all thank you very much for your work - I'm using your kangs for quite a long time now and generally they work really great :)

Now, I have one quick question: after flashing P204-67 yesterday I noticed that SetCPU lost its scaling governors. Previously (e.g. on P204-66) there were two available: powersave and performance. Now the drop-down is empty. I believe that the change is in the kang because I flashed the same kernel as before. The question is what could have changed that SetCPU lost its ability to "recognize" scaling governors? BTW, PimpMyCPU still works as expected, i.e. the governors are there (I still prefer SetCPU because it recognizes a bit more "events").
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
ARM optimizations ported from cm9 possibly. I believe if cm9 does have these optimizations then the custom kernel that supports cm7 must make it work on cm7 with those governors again. It should be custom kernel to make it work on cm7 and not the other way round.

Anyway its just my guess cuz I'm on stock cm kernel and it doesn't have any governers to choose.

[LG Optimus 2x] mike-o2:
Hey guys, what is your recommendation for the best battery life with this ROM?

I use ironkrnL48 and love it. The battery life is very good when I don't use the phone, but as soon as I surf the web and use GPS or leave the phone in some area where I have a bad signal reception, the battery runs dry in 11-13h.

That's not very good.

I think it might be due to Baseband 218 which I use. Is there any combination you can recommend?

I'm in the vodafone Germany network. Any suggestions are welcome.
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
Yeah, especially in bad signal areas the battery will drain fast. The setting "2G only" will save a lot of battery. I don't think it's baseband related, 218 isn't known for a bad battery life. You could try vadonkas kernel, maybe it will give you a better battery life.

Funny that your nick states "o2" but you're in vodafone :D
[LG Optimus 2x] 4lph4:
Hi, being sick at home I have time to test an installation from scratch of the KANG 67 on the CWM recovery 5.0.2.7.

What I did was:

Factory reset

Format system

Install Kang#67

Install Gapps 20111214

Reboot

And I had this screen at the end of the boot sequence. The first time I saw this screen I selected Setup Wizard (Configurazione Guidata) but I had some application crashes. So the second time (start again from a clean install) before going on I rebooted once.

Same screen appeared, but this time, once selected, the setup wizard worked well.

It is a small issue so no big problem. Did anyone else try a clean install with similar results? or there is something wrong on my phone?
[LG Optimus 2x] raiden-snake:
this rom comes with lg launcher? i hate adw launcher.
[LG Optimus 2x] SP1996AC:
It comes with ADW...

You could always freeze it with Titanium Backup and try another launcher...
[LG Optimus 2x] raiden-snake:
just install and no market? grrr where can i get google apk?
[LG Optimus 2x] mike-o2:
@Tonydl

Yea, that o in "o2" stands for my last name and the 2 because mike-o was taken ;) but then the company o2 came up and I was like c'mon now everyone confuses my name for them.

Yeah I use that App "Toggle 2g" which automatically switches to 2g when battery is low, WiFi is active or when the screen is off. it helps, but I still drain lots of battery when I'm using 3g for surfing and stuff.

It definitely uses up more battery then it used to under the stock based MoDaCo FR19 and Gueste2x v2.2.

I love CM7 and wouldn't want to go back, it' just the battery life which is not optimal.

You recommend vadonka's kernel rather than ironkrnL? I thought it would be based on ironkrnL?

Do you get good battery life with it?
[LG Optimus 2x] SP1996AC:
Flash the gapps zip from temasek's mediafire page.
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
Never tested the ironkrnL - I'm using the stock CM kernel currently. vadonkas kernel is not based on ironkrnL, it uses lots of optimizations from different kernels. But it might not be totally stable, yet.

Maybe someone else has good tips for battery life or different kernels - I accepted the battery life and charge it all the time for now :D

When I can't charge for a longer time then I usually disable internet (and enable it once in a while for a short time) - and the battery will hold for several days lol.
[LG Optimus 2x] cmahendra:
I agree about Free version, but it seems you never used ADW Launcher EX. Its very fast, highly-responsive, smooth animation, very easily configurable and probably the one which uses lowest battery. May be developers wanted a huge difference in Free and EX. :D or it looks like they want to prove their point why the app should be bought. lolz:D

Well guys, sory to bring bad news, but it seems that flash streaming is a issue with the phone and not cm7!

[LG Optimus 2x] CVonV:
the stock FM radio has more than 5 presets IIRC and my stations do have RDS, as such the stock app picked up the station names. and my reception is fine.

i have said it before but 720p youtube vids in the stock browser works fine for me on build 23 & 29. mind you this was over my home wifi connection. i wouldn't bother with 720p over 3G/HSDPA

the youtube app does not do 720p.. only 480p (HQ)

are there any specific streaming flash vids you want me to check out?
[LG Optimus 2x] ergoen:
About 720p YouTube videos: older clips where the videos are encoded with h264 work fine since the o2x can decode them in hw. Newer videos though are usually coded with the webm codec which our phone can only decode in sw mode, thus it becomes a slideshow.
[LG Optimus 2x] Philomene:
Hy Temasek,

hmm i just tried watching a 720p vid that was uploaded only 3 days ago.. no probs here. can you link me to one that stutters for you?

also, regarding the radio.. i seem to have found an issue.. a lot of the time i can't get the audio to sound out via my headphones.. it wants to redirect to the bluetooth headset and even if i click on the speaker icon to enable speaker output.. nothing comes out :S also i meant 5 presets from before.. not 6 as I wrote
[LG Optimus 2x] C0D3N1N3R:

was on 67 flashed over 63 since 2/3 days was working fine. but without any good reason I flashed to 67 with full wipe. now having issues.

1) flashed first got statusbar FC, then

2) reflashed rom. then got external card missing.

3) reflashed rom. flashed with with external card to mount as subfolder, again started getting FC

4) finally wiped all and restored nandroid backup....phew!

Is this anything related to EXT partition and SDCard mounting method issue? Once got Gapps issue also. Then flashed gapps of august worked for the moment.

a) Please inform me what partition we have with this rom EXT3 or EXT4?

b) which is best gapps for this rom?

c) want to mount internal memory as sdcard and memory card as subfolder. which flash I should do?

d) Anyone have flashable which can wipe all and also covert to EXT3 or EXT4? Saw somewhere single file wipe but not able to find now. :(

e) what is exact flash sequence if I want memory card as subfolder?

Please help me, kind of messed and stuck here.... (thank god took nadroid backup before messing up)
[LG Optimus 2x] rskyline:
#63 as #67 had EXT4 partitions that CM7 package convert automatically. The steps to flash this rom (I'm coming from stock) is wipe all and flash. The best gapps are the latest GB package. To switch your internal and external like you want is on settings-CyanogenMod settings-applications-CHECK USE INTERNAL STORAGE. And then reboot and you're done

Enviado desde mi Optimus 2X usando Tapatalk
[LG Optimus 2x] salisbury_steak:
a) EXT4

b) Look for the Gapps for 2.3.7 in Temasek's mediafire.

c) Do you mean using the _ExternalSD like how stock rom does it? Sorry man, I haven't tried it. Doing mount hacks not native to CM7 may cause unforeseen data corruptions. I personally don't recommend it just for the convenience of an internal folder. Just use the application options inside CM settings if you want to switch mounts between internal and external SD.

d) That, is also in Temasek's mediafire.

e) See answer in (c).

Apparently that doesn't happen to me. If u read carefully from his post, he mentioned 2nd try wipe again and was successful with the gapps. If gapps is the problem then no matter how many tries u perform, it will still not work.
