There is np playing flash videos in 360p and below with cm7. What u probably need to do is either first select 360p and below OR select full screen playing and then select 360p and below to play smoothly the flash video.
[LG Optimus 2x] el_charlie:
I have v1.1 and works fine. It's the one from the Android market.

Cheers.
[LG Optimus 2x] hellokittyr:
Thanks for ur reply

So... there's no fix for above 360 yet? How come? What's stopping us? T2 related again?

This tegra2 thing is so annoying, great hardware but bullcrap software support
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
No solution that I know of. I'm ok with playing 360p flash video on my phone. No complaints.

Not exactly CM stuff, but a bit connected.

Basebands. When we say Froyo and GB baseband, what exactly it means? ( OK, I googled around and most of the time I get answers like "baseband is radio" etc. - which does not tell me much).

Are froyo basebands "made up of" froyo and GB basebands likewise? If yes, when how do you know that what kind of baseband it is? LGs naming convention is more confusing for me because when I look Paul's forum, there is a 622 baseband for GB as well as Froyo!

Any direction to a right link that explains this too is welcome :).
[LG Optimus 2x] cmahendra:
@all newbies.

Sorry I am actually junior member but will share you what I have learnt so far.

Baseband is a Radio hardware Signal supporting software (not driver) and have seperate hardware pocket location on mobile device. This is very important code for working in conjunction with Atenna chip with Mobile Radio frequencies in various countries. The radio means the 2G Network (GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900) and 3G Network (HSDPA 900 / 1900 / 2100, HSDPA 900 / 1700 / 2100). The functionalities of Actual Mobile Signal, 2G+3G Internet and GPS reception depends on this baseband software.

Baseband stored on EEPROM IC and is not part of ROM or Android OS. There are few basebands which supports better with Froyo and some support better with GB. This is why they call some basebands as Froyo-BB and GB-BB coz they were released by LG alongwith Froyo and GB models respectively.

BB does not changes with ROM Flash, you need hardware flashers like SmartFlash. BB flashing blanks data partition, cache partition but not the Rom.

If you see carefully the numbers of BB they are Month and Date. 725 means BB as on July 25th 2011. 1120 means November 20, 2011.

As per Temasek's last post, 823 and later versions of BB are GB versions and may not work properly with CM7. All previous BB released with Froyo by LG are CM7 compatible and work great. I am on BB725L. You may try 823/824/1120 but I am afraid you will have to come back to 725 or earlier.

---------------------

RIL - Radio Interface Layer is additional software driver. This comes in various versions which is distributed inside ROM seperately in different countries matching with the Baseband. Not all RIL work properly with all BBs, hence you need to find best combination of BB and RIL to work better in your country.

RIL is flashed either with ROM, or separately with CWM flashers or GetRIL application. Some experts do replace RIL file ("lib/lge-ril.so") manually in Root Area. Check this (pastime1971 post)

---------------------

I know this is just few notes a novice could understood in last few weeks after taking some interest and I am sure I could be wrong somewhere. Experts are adviced to correct and guide me too.....

Phew....!

[LG Optimus 2x] rskyline:
And i can say that in my lg-p990h that uses UMTS (850/1900/2100) the 823BB is the best so far. Because 824/1120 BB crashes my signal.totally. BTW im from movistar Venezuela working in 2G(850)3G(1900)

Hi Mahendra,

There is nothing like junior member or stuff. People who shares their knowledge are really decent human beings. I got to know a lot from your posts, and really thank you for that :D

PS: By the way, is there any way we can know that if the baseband is froyo supporting or GB supporting?

Let us see if devs have anything to say about this too.
[LG Optimus 2x] cmahendra:
Thanks a lot for your review...BB and RIL combinations work differently in various countries. I even experimented 823, 824 and 1120 with CM7 with different RIL, the radio signal was weaker here in India, but did not fail at all. May be these will work great with CM9 and ICS Stock releases.

Thanks a lot dear Divyan....

As far as I know O2X P990 and SU660 are released with Froyo in December 2010 and all BB are Froyo BBs since then. Later GB OTA (over the air) updates were released by LG with BB725 (July 13, 11). Hence devices which got 725/823/824 and now 1120, OTA update and sold after this period are GB BB. Experts please confirm.....

Very soon (after April 2012), we are expecting official ICS updates for O2x by LG in 2012Q2, that means new BB and ICS is around the corner somewhere there.....check this official news here.....https://www.facebook.com/notes/lg-mobile/ice-cream-sandwich-ics-os-upgrade-schedule/334420639902596

EDIT: Correction. GB for O2x released in July 2012, hence all 725 variations are also GB-BB. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1167284
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
There is no such thing as a "Froyo Baseband" or "Gingerbread Baseband". There are only basebands. (You can install the very first 0218 baseband which came with Froyo on a phone with a recent GB ROM, it will still work.)

The RILs aren't really "Froyo" or "Gingerbread" either, but it's useful to call them that to have some way of distinguishing them.

When LG updated the P990 to Gingerbread, they decided to also update how the RIL works internally. I think aremcee called it different "service codes". We can call this RIL V2.

When LG updated the SU660 to Gingerbread, they kept the old way of doing things, no major changes in the RIL. We can call this RIL V1.

ROMs which were made for RIL V1 cannot use RIL V2 and vice versa, it's really not a GB vs Froyo issue at all, just a matter of how they internally communicate with the RIL.
[LG Optimus 2x] Divyan:
Thank you so much , TrymHansen, for the information. Yes, the reason I got confused because 218 BB and RIL works with almost all the ROMs, albeit they being Froyo or GB.

If use an analogy of PCs, Linux and Windows can run on same hardware with one BIOS. So, BB is a smartphone equivalent of BIOS. Did I reach anywhere near the fact ?

Temasek, sorry for this OT discussion. I keep quiet now onwards :)
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
If we keep it simple, then yes, this analogy works.
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
No worries..... it is too good an information to be considered off-topic :p
[LG Optimus 2x] fitipardi:
then, why any bb/ril works better in su660 than p990, and vice versa? Whats different?

Thanks

[LG Optimus 2x] RadioCharlie:
I have an issue with the SD/internal mounting arrangements that seems to be "broken" on the latest release but worked fine on older ones. I used the Gueste Stock LG SD tweak to get the internal memory mounted as SDCARD and the microSD card as _ExternalSD.

After some reflashing (and a full Clockwork restore), if I attempt to flash the Stock LG SD ZIP, the phone boots up and crashes the "radio" giving me constant "force close" message boxes. I then have to yank the battery, restart into Clockwork and flash over the KANG - I don't lose any data but it seems that the SD mod isn't "taking". When I did it first, I did not Wipe Dalvik Cache although the Gueste info told me to. Either way, this time it's not working.

Here's what it's doing:

dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard/_ExternalSDCard auto /devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.2/mmc_host/mmc1
dev_mount emmc /mnt/sdcard 9 /devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.3/mmc_host/mmc2

Apologies if I've missed an SD tweak on this thread but it would certainly save me editing that file manually and playing with command-lines!

Sorry for this post, but I have a big problem with my phone.. And because i'ts possibly due to CM7, or, at least, because I was running this kang when I get the problem, I decided to post here too..

My networks doesn't work, or it is very hazardous. I can't call or receive a call, I can't receive en SMS, and it takes me a looong time to send one. I tried to return to the stock rom, I tried to flash another BB... After some hours the problem disappeared so 2 days later I restored my backup of this Kang and it was working great! But hours after it fails again. I also tried to flash a clean version of this kang but it doesn't solve anything. It seems to be very hazardous. Sometimes it works, most of time it doesn't.

I posted in this thread, without success.. So if you got an idea, please share.. ;)

Sorry again, thx!

Change your RIL with the GetRIL app. A matching RIL and BB will give you a better signal.
[LG Optimus 2x] mat369:
Already done, but thanks anyway :)
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
1. Check your APN settings. Is it correct? Don't assume cm supplied apn is always correct.

2. To troubleshoot, stay as vanilla as possible. No custom kernel, no affecting 3rd party apps that possibly could affect those functions u mentioned.

3. Provide a log if possible when u encounter failed attempt to call or failed functions.

What bb are u using btw?

[LG Optimus 2x] nothingtotalk:
I think we first have to determine if it's a phone related or sim/network related problem.

Perhaps if you have a spare working phone lying around or just borrow from one of your friends and test out the calling and messaging function?

On a second thought may it be hardware related like a broken antenna?
[LG Optimus 2x] mat369:
1 My APN settings are Ok, already verified that :S

2 This problems appeared with your Kang and the Etana kernel.. But it persists with a clean CM7.. And i just install the stock V10B, the problem still here! :S

The last time I installed the stock V10B, the problem disappeared after some hours, without any particular actions... I hope it will disappeared again now..

3 Yes, there is this one, but it's on stock V10B. I will restore your kang and will make another log ;)

Now i'm using the BB218. I was on 725 when my problem appeared, I tried to reinstall it or install the 823, without improvements.

Thanks a lot temasek!

Tanks again, but I don't think it's an hardware problem because I install the V10B and, after some hours, it works fine, and works fine during two days. So... :S

Another thing: the option "research networks", in settings, fails.

Verify that your IMEI hasn't been destroyed/changed. Dial *#06#*, compare what you see to what is on your box or on the sticker underneath the battery. All the symptoms you describe are typical of a screwed up IMEI.

[LG Optimus 2x] mat369:
Here I send an SMS to myself using the temasek's kang (version 63) and the Etana Kernel.

When I clicked "send", my phone didn't do anything, I just got the little green arrow on Gosms which indicates that the message was being sent. After, I lost the network connection.... And, a minute later, the connection appeared again and, then, I receive my SMS. So it tooks a long time!

After, i tried a call... It fails, of course. My correspondent's phone didn't ring. My phone, after few seconds, tell me "Hors zone de couverture" (not in the coverage zone), and i lost my network connection..

Oh, I will check the IMEI, thanks everyone!

Edit: my IMEI numbers are corresponding ( I don't think if i have to be happy or not x) )
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
Strangely enough it would have been good if the IMEI was destroyed, because that can easily be fixed.

There's a lot of errors in the call-log, after which the there's a crash of the rild. I'm no expert at this, I guess pastime can correct me, but they seem to come right after the phone-part requests the VoiceMailNumber. Many timeout errors right after that, and then an unrecognized response, and a rild disconnect.

I'm out of my depth, I'll leave this to pastime, but I guess you could try inputting the voicemailnumber manually and not use the sim-supplied one, just to see what happens. Over to pastime.

[LG Optimus 2x] pastime1971:
@ mat369 & TrymHansen,

i am no expert in this at all.

however, those timeout seem to be about unmuting (AT+CMUT=0)

not sure if it is before or after the origin of the problem.

however, i think this is where you lose network

D/RILC (11917): [UNSL]< UNSOL_MO_CALL_FROM_OTHER }
E/RILJ ( 1617): Exception processing unsol response: 1058Exception:java.lang.
RuntimeException: Unrecognized unsol response: 1058
E/RILJ ( 1617): Hit EOS reading message length
I/RILJ ( 1617): Disconnected from 'rild' socket
D/RILB ( 1617): Notifying: radio not available

EOS concerns me. (i think i seen it before.) it is in RIL.java. worth looking into.

edit: EOS may be because radio already crashed.

edit: it is beyond my understanding... :mad:
[LG Optimus 2x] cmahendra:
I defenitely call this on the topic. Not off-topic. ROMs consist of RIL, rils behave differently on different devices and different BB. And if one wants to know how they are related to each other, I think its better he should know. Many people still are blindly flashing roms and complaining of no network or low network, due to RIL in rom which is not matching with BB.

Yes BB is not froyo-bb or GB-bb but they came with those variations thats why we are puttting them in understandable names or categories. But I am sure, recent BBs do not work better with old roms or stock roms in most places throughout the globe. 824 worked in very less places, rest are complaining.
[LG Optimus 2x] mat369:
I've set my voice mail number, but it doesn't seems to solve the problem...

No, the two times I install stock Rom, the networks fails again during few hours, and surprisingly the problem disappeared. And I don't know how, I don't know why.

Ramesh Babu? My operator is SFR, in France, and I don't know anyone called "Ramesh Babu"... x)
[LG Optimus 2x] nothingtotalk:
I had the same problem with you. Other ppl couldn't call through because of the "out of coverage" problem. Was on 824BB and matching RIL. But after I flashed the nitz exception and data_local_prop_NITZ_GMT.zip and enabled automatic time, it seemed to work.

I still get occasional network drops but it is far more stable now! Try it and see if it works for you.

@nothingtotalk: I was on BB 725 when I encountered this problem for the first time. Now, I am on BB218, so no need these fix. But thanks anyway :D
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
Some p990 phones (esp. "Made in Korea" ones) seem to have some hardware parts from su660 and therefore work (much) better with su660 basebands.

But as "the best bb/ril combination" depends on more factors like your provider, your ROM, your network coverage etc. there is no easy answer to what bb should work for most people.

I for myself can't use 823 at all (no signal) - others can't use 824 at all. The most stable ones seem to be 218 and 725 - but some people (like me) need to use 824 (or the new 1120) to have a good call quality.

NITZ exception handling is a bug fix for when carrier sends NITZ without DST, which makes LGEStarRIL.java > respondsNitz to throw exception and automatic date/time doesn't work.

http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#change,12021

NITZ override is to a tweak. P990 BB/RIL converts NITZ to local time for some reason. in CM, we revert it back to GMT (LGEStarRIL.java > responseNitz) however, SU660 0824BB/RIL and (1020BB) seems to report it in GMT. this tweak allows user to make local to GMT conversion bypass using ro.telephony.nitz=GMT. data_local_prop_NITZ_GMT.zip adds it to /data/local.prop

[LG Optimus 2x] markop90:
Some time ago I had some serious baseband problems: with a certain operator (TIM, Italy) my o2x was unable to make calls and send sms. I tried that sim with another o2x, and all worked fine; so was my baseband that had problems. I checked my imei, it was the same of the imei written on the box.

I tried everything: every rom, every baseband, nothing. Always the same problem.

I sent my phone to warranty assistance, but not even lg assistance managed to solve my problem.

So, when it was returned back to me, i decided to try my last chance before throwing the phone out of the window :D : i flashed a baseband with ERASE CAL DATA option activated in SmartFlash. I believe it is a sort of low-level erase of the baseband. The flashing succeded, but i lost my imei (it was all zeros). It is simple to restore it, just set it via AT commands.

After that I made a call: THE BASEBAND WORKED FLAWLESSY AGAIN!

So, if you have serious problem like the mine, as last chance try to flash the baseband with that option enabled.
