I want to know after installing cm9 last nightly and last gapps and working with cm9 freshly installed on my LG Optimus 4G LTE with BELL can I comeback to the state where I am right now:

I have Stock ROM with some installed and configured apps I have made a backup with the ClockWorkMod Recovery apps

If yes, all I have to do is to restore the backup made this morning over the cm9 installation and I'll be back to gingerbread 2.3.5 and all my apps?

Thank's

Alain
[LG Nitro HD] S1XXV:
Yeah that's all you need to do. I've gone back to stock a few times after flashing cm9 and had no problems. I always wipe caches first. Just a preference of mine.
[LG Nitro HD] abellemare44:
OK, last step before I install CM9 on my LG-P930

What are working and waht are not working in the nightly Build CM9 for LG-P930???

Is there a link where there is information about that, like I have with the HP Touchpad that I have flash with a nightly build of CM9, there is a rootzwiki link that explain everything that is not working!!

Thank's

Alain
[LG Nitro HD] beaups:
^Everything works? GPU acceleration isn't quite right still but other than that....
[LG Nitro HD] aremcee:
Huh?
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
I believe they may be referring to the flickering bug. Obviously acceleration is working just fine.
[LG Nitro HD] beaups:
Maybe it's just me. The interface is choppy. Games (words with friends for example) are choppy, while smooth on other ics phones..and wwf hangs in many instances now. Video in camera is choppy. HD video playback is choppy (haven't tried, other users have reported).

Other than the choppy graphics, and having to manually reset white balance in camera frequently, it's quite excellent.
[LG Nitro HD] aremcee:
Yeah, that has nothing to do with acceleration, or even the GPU.
[LG Nitro HD] beaups:
And since we can't get a proper thread on cm forums, I'll add that data occasionally dies - both wifi and 4g, needs a reboot - and wifi always shows a a significant battery drain (sometimes #1), even though it doesn't appear to be actually affecting battery life.

---------- Post added at 07:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:05 PM ----------

not what I was referring to.
[LG Nitro HD] drumist:
Yeah, I get that too. Data is unreliable at times. I also get pretty bad battery life compared to debloated stock ROM. Maybe those two things are related though. There's also the jittery screen thing, but for the most part it doesn't really cause problems. I'm not expecting it to be perfect at this stage; I'm just impressed it's working as well as it is at this point. (If there's anything I can do to help track these issues down (logfiles, etc), I'd be happy to help.)

It's a very good ROM and I've been pretty happy with it. As long as you can charge a lot, you should be able to use it as a daily driver already.
[LG Nitro HD] Flyview:
My wifi doesn't ever drop or stop working...

Is the jittery screen when dragging and holding finger still not present on the stock rom? (Upgraded to CM9 as soon as I got the phone)
[LG Nitro HD] Flyview:
Has anyone gotten the SMB network sharing to work in ES File browser? Scan doesn't find any computers on the network and when added manually it just doesn't work.
[LG Nitro HD] ssoonngg123:
after 0429, my nitro becomes very lagy.. has any other body experienced similar stuff? :confused:
[LG Nitro HD] drumist:
Correct, stock ROM doesn't do that.
[LG Nitro HD] FlintPNZ:
Stock BB and FW doesn't working good with cm9, as you say data and sim are unreliable at times. I also have tried to flash BB and FW from p936. As a result power consumption increased and I got some problems with phone calls e.g. sometimes I can't hear the opponent during a call and same on the other side.

Try to flash updated at&t baseband and firmware. It works very nice with cm9.
[LG Nitro HD] drumist:
That is what I have been using (AT&T v10j firmware/baseband). I personally haven't noticed any improvement compared to the stock AT&T v10f firmware/baseband.

However I did just decide to do a clean install with the latest CM9 build so we'll see if I notice any improvements.
[LG Nitro HD] Namuna:
The 4/30 nightly is out before the changelog, anyone know what's new? or maybe it's a hotfix?
[LG Nitro HD] handsupdb:
No Idea, I flashed and dont notice anything different as with most of the nightlies :P
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
lolz, x2

there have been a couple/few times where I've noticed a change since day 1, me *thinks*, but I also haven't experienced any jittery screens or lags, etc........had the occasional hiccup with a radio or 2 or something but a reboot always cleared that pretty much.

over time though, I have noticed the battery life getting better, especially lately BUT that is because juice defender finally kicked in somehow and it is doing its job.
[LG Nitro HD] rsalan:
JD works now? I haven't been using it since GB! How much improvement are you getting from it compared to stock CM9?
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
It's possible that this commit didn't make it into the 4/29 nightly. If it's not that, anyone's guess is as good as mine lol.
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
yes, it does work now and works well. it's estimating a 1.96x improvement, I wouldn't go that far, I'd say ~50-75% improvement. I've got the advanced setting dialed in with the radios and the screen<- makes big diff.
[LG Nitro HD] beaups:
^can you share your settings?
[LG Nitro HD] drummer07:
I did notice a slight lag between swiping, selecting menus, that I didn't notice before. Battery life is much better than the earlier builds.
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
here ya go

my increased battery life dropped to 1.81 estimated but i was out & about listening to pandora all day so the screen was off but the LTE mobile network was on 100%

[LG Nitro HD] aquariuz23:
I don't get this, not sure what is going on, but I randomly lose data connection. I will go from having H+ connectivity, and then a few hours later it will completely disappear with only radio available. No matter what I do it won't come back, unless I restart the phone. Now, I randomly get Edge connection, and again, it's stuck there until I restart the phone. I haven't tried LTE since I have not been in the coverage lately. It seems the 04/27 nightly did not quite fix the data connection issue. Gonna give the latest nightly a try, hopefully it will fix it.
[LG Nitro HD] stephensonbrady:
I am completely lag free except for when I'm plugged into the wall charger.... Then everything is super laggy... From the lock screen, to the browser, to the home screen swipes.. It's not really a new issue for me but I thought it'd get better as the newer nightlies come out. Anyone else experience a similar issue? Thanks... And it's really not a huge deal for me anyways because things are so smooth when it's not charging. Just thought I'd bring it up.
[LG Nitro HD] FlintPNZ:
Have you tried another charger? Maybe it will help you.

I've had same issue on my iphone 4 becouse of chinese charger :)
[LG Nitro HD] Flyview:
Are you using setcpu?
[LG Nitro HD] Namuna:
As Flyview is asking, are you using SetCPU? This sounds like you've got a rogue profile kicking in when your phone is charging.
[LG Nitro HD] hereric:
Is anyone else having lots of apps force close the first time you open them, then they work fine?
[LG Nitro HD] Flyview:
Yea sometimes I get this. A reboot usually gets rid of it for a good little while.
[LG Nitro HD] stephensonbrady:
Nope, not using set cpu or anything like that. Just default cm9 nightly settings. I will definitely give a new charger a try and report back. Thanks for the replies!
[LG Nitro HD] ssoonngg123:
Me!
[LG Nitro HD] stephensonbrady:
Yep, it was definitely the charger. Thanks everyone for the replies.
[LG Nitro HD] leo_bsb:
I started to use the nightly today. It is running perfect, I still didn't encounter any issues.
[LG Nitro HD] smashcz:
try video record, no problems? mine keep focusing..
[LG Nitro HD] leo_bsb:
I noticed a little to much effort to focus, but If I kept the camera still the focus stopped. Videos look great on 720p
[LG Nitro HD] hereric:
Anyone experience random restarts on latest nightly
[LG Nitro HD] 996gt2:
I haven't gotten random restarts yet, but it seems like the latest nightlies are actually less stable than some of the earlier ones.

I'm getting app crashes much more often than before. Earlier today, the torch app wouldn't open. Then the contacts app wouldn't open. Had to reboot after each time to fix these issues.
[LG Nitro HD] rsalan:
Agreed..
[LG Nitro HD] leo_bsb:
trying new nightly now
[LG Nitro HD] FlintPNZ:
leo_bsb,

There is no anything new but localization fixes.

update-cm-9-20120502-NIGHTLY-p930-signed.zip
Add Localization support to Torch widget (android_packages_apps_Torch)
frameworks_base_core - Update Italian Translation FIX (android_frameworks_base)
frameworks_base_core - Update Italian Translation (android_frameworks_base)
CM9-Settings-Update Russian Translation (android_packages_apps_Settings)
[LG Nitro HD] drumist:
Those changelogs don't include every single change, so there could have been additional changes not listed.
[LG Nitro HD] chrisrotolo:
they dont? I thought they would. CM9 is usually thourough..

would they not document the important changes but log the language packs?

maybe Im wrong..
[LG Nitro HD] kernelpan1c:
Not all the changes on are there.

The CM changelog is here:

http://cm-nightlies.appspot.com/?device=p930

The P930 device tree changelog is here:

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_lge_p930/commits/ics

However as said above, some changes are committed without ever going through Gerrit (which is what the cm-nightlies.appspot... site shows)

Gerrit = http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#/q/status:merged,n,z

[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
Yeah, but in this instance I think they're right, nothing actually appears to have changed except for the aforementioned localization commits in the 05/02 nightly.

Edit, and I have no clue what the changes are between the 05/02 nightlies. I just noticed that a second one is available. We'd probably have to dig into the other branches that our Nitro build depends on to find what the difference is if any.

Edit2, the only thing I could find is potentially tmobile theme stuff being merged in. I don't use Trebuchet, but I'll see if there's anything new in Settings here in a second (I'm about to flash the new 05/02)

Edit3, as I suspected, the tmobile theme code hasn't been enabled in settings (which I'd expect to see a commit for in the P930 branch). I dunno guys, it looks like not much has changed in the last 3 days in terms of actual functionality.
[LG Nitro HD] chrisrotolo:
Im just saying, if there was any major changes, or anything we (the end users)should be aware of, I think they would include in it in the changelog. git commits are likely just behind the scenes code clean-up, merges, etc.
[LG Nitro HD] queequegscoffin:
Is there still a need to cycle and delete battery stats if you install new nightlys at 100% battery?
[LG Nitro HD] kumayam:
I just noticed the search/menu button works when u hold it down...accidentally did it..just wondering if it was working on the previously nightlies because on the early ones, it didn't work so I assume it wasn't being used
[LG Nitro HD] kumayam:
No need to I think, I never did I a never had any issues with my battery
[LG Nitro HD] drumist:
This was never necessary.

[LG Nitro HD] leo_bsb:
The hold for search is working on mine.
[LG Nitro HD] drumist:
That's weird. Is it NOT working for anyone else?
[LG Nitro HD] Flyview:
I think it's working for people using apex launcher cause they just included that in their latest update. Doesn't work in other apps.
[LG Nitro HD] hereric:
Ya it works for me on apex
[LG Nitro HD] rsalan:
I'm using nova. Maybe it doesn't work on trebuchet?
[LG Nitro HD] kumayam:
If u r on ur home screen it does, using apex
[LG Nitro HD] hereric:
Anyone else downloading the third version of the 02 nightly?

All three have different md5s so there must be at least one change in each right?

Running it right now, seems pretty smooth.
[LG Nitro HD] Flyview:
Getting it now.

Hey, off topic, does anyone know how to zoom dolphin browser to 100% pixel per pixel? The only way I've found is by clicking on a text box.
[LG Nitro HD] drumist:
No, not necessarily. Just the fact that it was built at a different time/date will cause some files to have different times/dates saved in them, which means it will have a different MD5 sum. For example the build.prop file contains the exact date/time when the build was done.
[LG Nitro HD] hereric:
Good point dude. In other news I just got an lte sim and holy crap its fast!
[LG Nitro HD] M0D1441:
Jealous! Y'all got CM9 support (At least a nightly) before us Skyrocketeers :D

Cheers, and enjoy your frozen treat! ;)
[LG Nitro HD] 996gt2:
I see it on my homescreen as well. Any idea what it does?
[LG Nitro HD] KindaWack:
I get the dead white pixel, but only in the calculator app.

As every knows late doesn't work, but can anyone get hspa+ working? So far even with the phone apn my speeds are the same as regular 3g. Until the lte issues are fixed I might have to use hono's rom, also is anyone having the battery drain pretty quick?
[LG Nitro HD] TRF-Inferno:
From initial BrowserMark runs, it doesn't appear that the Adreno 220 is doing its job and everything is getting off-loaded to the CPU. I'm getting 36k points in BrowserMark whether Force GPU Rendering is on or off.

Very good start for a first Nightly build though!
[LG Nitro HD] 996gt2:
The battery drain issues seem just as bad as they were with Android 2.3. The battery still drains at a crazy quick rate (and I've had my phone for about a month now, so it's not a brand new battery).
[LG Nitro HD] KindaWack:
I had really good battery life with gingerbread, with cm9 I lose 40% in 6 hours with no usage just sitting there idle.
[LG Nitro HD] 996gt2:
I haven't tested the idle battery life with CM9 yet, but the battery life in use seems pretty similar between Gingerbread and CM9.

In both cases, I'm getting about 1% drop every 2 minutes with the screen at 25% and using HSPA+ for data (not LTE). With the screen turned up to 75%, the battery can actually drop 1% every minute under use. That's not exactly good battery life by any means, especially considering my battery has been calibrated and has been in use for about a month now.

Anyone have ideas on how to improve it?
[LG Nitro HD] warishuku:
Very laggy!

Hi! I just installed this room, it is amazing! but I have a very weird problem, the roms seems to be extremely laggy when I open apps or anything, it is very fast in menus actually, anyone know why it's happening?

Cheers!

is it anybody try to flash into 6200
[LG Nitro HD] Cromson:
I tried 2 hours ago, not working... error in CWM (installing zip).

[LG Nitro HD] kernelpan1c:
Could someone with G+ please ask RC where he wants users to report bugs?
[LG Nitro HD] Billy Madison:
they don't have rss on nightly page? how would I know about updates?
[LG Nitro HD] gfx1980:
It's great.I have flashed the rom to my nitro hd.
[LG Nitro HD] tuanda82:
great news. Now since it is nightly build; we need to know how to roll back to the original. In case...
[LG Nitro HD] Maverick.Marq:
Much better once I wrapped my head around the gapps missing had wifi issue at first but its OK now
[LG Nitro HD] rsalan:
Anyone experiencing lag? Especially with the Facebook app? =[
[LG Nitro HD] dnorthington:
Nightlies are automated builds. So no bug reports until release candidates.
[LG Nitro HD] dnorthington:
Did you do a backup in CWM before flashing?
[LG Nitro HD] dnorthington:
Try friendcaster. Face books app is slow and a memory hog.
[LG Nitro HD] gte460z:
The third 5/02 build has a smaller file size so something had to change.

Battery draining faster faster

I have install the latest build CM9 LGP930 May 2th with the latest gapps April 29th and everything is working well, but the batterie is draining faster than the stock rom with my LG Optimus 4G LTE with Bell

What do you do to stop draining battery like that before with gingerbread 2.3.5 installed "stick rom" I was able to do all day with mail web and facebook now in the begining of the afternoon I have to plug it to charge the battery!!

Thank's

Alain
[LG Nitro HD] drumist:
Yeah, but it might not even be something that affects our device.

No one is manually uploading nightly builds. CM has computers that compile a build every day and automatically upload them. That's what the nightly builds are. Even if there are no changes, a new nightly should appear approximately once a day with the latest changes implemented, whether there were actually any or not.
[LG Nitro HD] kumayam:
u did a fresh flash so its going to take atleast 24 hours for ur phone to build caches etc...it should optomize by tomorrow and u should have better batteries..my battery life has been great and ive been flashing these nightlies for a while now

anyone else having trouble attaining a GPS lock? Today I was trying to use GPS to make my way to a job site but the damn phone wouldn't lock... I was in my car so it should have been able to pretty quickly : (

[LG Nitro HD] hereric:
Wow, I'm going to try to flash CM9 after wiping data and see how that goes. It was cloudy today, would that have anything to do with it?

Also are there any universal A-GPS patches available for CM9 yet? I remember I had one for CM7 on my Incredible S and it made a huge difference.

The recent nightlies don't seem as smooth. :(
[LG Nitro HD] Flyview:
Well, I've run into a big problem. I think someone else was saying they had a similar problem earlier, I'll find the post.

I went into ClockworkMod Recovery to flash the 5/03 nightly as per usual.

Made a backup

Cleared cache, dalvik cache

Installed 5/03 nightly from sd

Installed GAPPS update from sd (posted on the previous page)

Restarted

Phone is now EXTREMELY slow. Every new activity takes about 10-20 seconds to come up. Otherwise, scrolling around feels the same. But once you click anything, it freezes for 10-20 seconds and finally what you wanted comes up.

I tried restoring the backup but it is the same, I tried a factory reset, it is the same, I tried no SD card, it is the same!!!

HELP!

EDIT2: Looks like I need to do an "unbrick."

[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
who all did this? i did not and all my goog apps are still around, etc.

could this be the culprit?
[LG Nitro HD] hereric:
Could be, I see no reason to re-flash GAPPS if you aren't wiping data and previously had GAPPS installed...

Even though it was an update, the apps update through the play store so you shouldn't have to reflash them unless its a clean install.
[LG Nitro HD] Namuna:
My understanding with gapps is you DON'T need to keep updating it everytime there's an updated version...As the apps in gapps will auto-update from the Play Store anyway. Am I wrong ?
[LG Nitro HD] drumist:
Only a few of them are on the Play Store. Most of the apps and libraries included in the gapps package can only be updated through installing a newer gapps package.

Gapps changelog can be found here: http://wiki.rootzwiki.com/Google_Apps#Ice_Cream_Sandwich_.28Android_4.0.x.29
[LG Nitro HD] Flyview:
So then it's ok to install as update from zip? Should cache/dalvik be wiped first?

I'm having a hell of a time trying to unbrick it now....nightmare.

The critical question: Why is a [nandroid] backup also affected by this slow-down? We should be able to reflash a backup and be certain it will be 100% like before. Apparently not...
[LG Nitro HD] drumist:
I think so, yes.

The only thing I can imagine is that something is being modified that shouldn't be getting modified. Nandroid only backs up the partitions directly associated with an installed ROM -- system, data, cache, boot, sd-ext (if it exists), and .android_secure on the SD card. I'm guessing that a partition other than those is being modified for some reason.

Could this be a bug with CWM?
[LG Nitro HD] Flyview:
That's what I'm thinking, some sort of CWM bug. If this happens randomly with flashes, I won't be flashing every nightly anymore that's for sure. I'm still unable to unbrick. Some help in that thread would be appreciated.

Edit: after 12+ hours at it I was finally able to unbrick and restore the nandroid I had saved, yet have it working this time.

I'm afraid to flash any more updates until we figure out why a simple nandroid isn't restoring everything, but instead leaving something corrupted. This seems to have happened to a number of people where they had to unbrick the device with a full stock rom (only Asian available) in order to get rid of the severe slow-down.
[LG Nitro HD] airicd22:
This newest update is smooth and I'm seeing better lte connection.
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
I assure you guys that you are experiencing some sort of placebo or have somehow changed a configuration setting that has positively affected your perceived performance because there have been no real changes for at least a week now. For the people that have somehow made their phones laggy...I dunno, I'm at a loss for that one. The newest gapps is definitely not the culprit, though. I flashed it just fine.
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
party pooper.
[LG Nitro HD] Flyview:
Could it be a bad download? Do you check the md5 of all updates?
[LG Nitro HD] gte460z:
The newest nightly has a crap load of changes listed
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
The newest nightly that's not yet available. My goodness, if anybody has any issues tomorrow, I won't be able to say anything about there not being any real changes lol.

Edit: @Flyview,

I don't personally verify md5s, but I'm quite sure Rom Manager does before it lets you flash it and that is the only way that I flash updates. I truly have no idea how any bad rom flash could make a phone continue behaving slow even after a nand restore to the point that flashing a .kdz file is the only solution.
[LG Nitro HD] Flyview:
Oh it checks? I usually just manually boot into CWM and do it.

Well from pushing the AT&T files last night, it seems like firmware.img and baseband.img isn't changed by a nandroid. All the others are. Hmmm I wonder if I could have restored it by pushing the ATT files directly through ADB rather than flashing the full Asian kdz, rerooting and then pushing the ATT files.
[LG Nitro HD] drumist:
Yeah, it's possible. It could also be another partition on the phone (ones that generally we never touch). I'll definitely test it thoroughly if I ever get that problem to happen on my device, but I'm not going to go out of my way to try to make it happen.

I always flash directly from recovery as well. I don't trust ROM Manager. :P

Oh wait I forgot I turned my lte off while the phone was charging. Everything is still good.
