[Motorola Photon 4G] bengals1975:
I themed my CM9 Galaxy Nexus notification drawer widgets to match the blue in the rest of ICS instead of the default white. I had an Epic 4G visitor ask about doing this for their phone, then a Photon user too! So I built this Zipthemer file to help y'all out. I don't have a Photon so I couldn't test this out. If you try it let me know if it works, or what doesn't work.

download zipthemer here

*How to use Zipthemer*

note: you may need a ROM you have flashed (CM9) in order to configure your edify script (this is the script that tells CWM what to do when you run your update.zip file)

1. Install zipthemer!

2. Open up the menu (on ICS it's the 3 vertical dots) and click on update edify (you will only have to do this once)

3. Updating Edify screen (complete

either

Option 1

or

Option 2)

- option 1: browse to the ROM you have on your phone and click it -- done

- option 2: click on download, then exit out of the screen, click options (3 dots), settings, update script format, select your phone. If your phone isn't present, see option 1.

4. Download the zipthemer file (.zip), and using a file explorer, move it to the "zipthemer" folder on your sd card.

5. open zipthemer again, click the "+theme" button, select the theme you want to apply (you can select more than one, or even only certain parts of one)

6. click "*output" button and pick the name you want for your update file (or accept the default). Leave the "-update.zip" at the end of the file name and "/sdcard/" at the beginning so it will be in your sdcard root directory and easier to find when you go to flash it.

7. click "build it!", it will ask you if you want to create a backup file, I usually do just in case so I don't have to re-flash the entire ROM to undo my changes if I want to.

8. Exit zipthemer, reboot to recovery, flash your new zip file, reboot system, enjoy!

more notes:

a. as always, it's a pretty good idea to run a nandroid anytime you play with your system (this is a do as I say, not as I do kinda statement)

b. A lot of these type of themes where some system files are modified or system apps are modified, it's good to do a wipe dalvik/cache

c. if you update your ROM to a new nightly/RC/stable, re-build the zipthemer file. It's likely that this isn't necessary, but unless you know just what the CM team changed it's probably a good idea.
[Motorola Photon 4G] softpinkishlips:
Can i apply this to my ics fone?

Im on ics 4.0.3/cm9/build 17/sgs I9000
[Motorola Photon 4G] bengals1975:
Maybe, I'll have to download the CM9 ROM for the SGS and look at the files to see. I'll look into it as soon as I can and let you know.

Has anyone heard anything at all about ICS? Being this is not carrier modified, I can't believe we haven't even seen a leak.. I know for a fact Samsung has the firmware, what they are holding onto it for is beyond me. Unless they are using ICS to market their new tab and want people to buy it just for that..
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] MinceMan:
Considering that they delayed the tab 2 for at least a month and aren't yet shipping this piece of hardware because they couldn't get ics running well on it I would guess they don't have it ready for our device yet. (that's right they said the tab 2 would be out by now! )

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] LoaganThack:
The thing that i find to be fail about this hole thing is all the ics roms (i think thats what they are called) on here have everything working except for the camera. SO Samsung take one of these roms that you like. add in the drivers for the camera then push it live PROBLEM SOLVED.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] zachpozniak:
I'm getting the mount/system error. I thought flashing the new cwm recovery and kernel would have gotten rid of that problem. It never did. I still get the same error.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hechoen:
And your trying to restore back ups made with CWM 5. Not CWM 3 right.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mike-y:
if the backup was made with cwm 3.x it won't restore with cwm 5.x and vice versa.

Also, GB roms had issues restoring backups made with cwm 3.x - you had to flash a clean rom, and then do an advanced restore, and restore data only.

i just thought that it is not possible and will brick the phone since there are different version..

one more question that i am confused, since i am in froyo version and it says on the tut that in XXKPE to flash "twice" before continuing flashing XXKPH, "twice" means flashing again the PDA or all of the file of XXKPE?

another question can i use this procedure for flashing POSEIDON ROM?

first XXKPE >> XXKPH >>> XXKPQ >>>GANESHBIYER CF-ROOT v6 >>> WIPE >>> POSEIDON ROM >>> WIPE >>> restore apps using TiB.?

thanks, hoping for ur immediate response before flashing the said ROM.

[LG Optimus 2x] Beplexor:
Hi guys, I'm definitely thinking about buying an LG Optimus 2X, because over here in NZ it is by far the cheapest dual core phone, yet is similar/on par with many of the latest phones.

Before I decide to buy it however, I'd just like to ask a few questions to clear things up.

- Based on many reviews, the UI seems occasionally choppy, and I've also heard that many users aren't happy with a large number of bugs and crashes. Is this fixed when the phone is updated from froyo to gingerbread? Ice cream sandwich is also officially coming for the 2X which sounds promising.

- Is the battery life acceptable? Spec sheets say it runs on a 1500 mAh battery which sounds, theoretically, quite awful :/ I'd like to know if you get used to it or not. I'm not a huge traveler, so I'd use it at home most of the time, occasionally when going out.

- Design-wise, the camera protrudes slightly on the back. I'm worried that this might make the lens more susceptible to damage and cracks. Has this affected anyone?

I'd really appreciate answers for these questions. Thanks a lot.
[LG Optimus 2x] SP1996AC:
Hi!

1. The stock ui can be choppy because of the crappy software that comes on your phone. This is because the stock LG rom kind of sucks and is really slow. This problem persists on both Froyo and Gingerbread I believe. Therefore my advice is to root your phone and flash a custom rom on it. This will make your phone a lot smoother and better. Also, I wouldn't wait for the official ICS update. Knowing LG, this might take some time, just like when they released Gingerbread. They said that they would release ICS during the 2nd quarter of the year, but I wouldn't be surprised if they would release it somewhere in 2013...

Anyway, CM9 is available to us, and this is ICS, although not stock. You can find a couple of CM9 (and CM7) roms in the dev section.

2. The battery life is pretty good. But only when you use a good custom rom. I've heard many stories from people who got massive battery drains on stock unrooted phones. Sometimes they can't even last a day with normal usage! However, with my current combination. (signature :D) I can last for about 2 days with moderate usage. (twitter, Facebook, 9gag, YouTube, XDA App, and about a hour gaming) So, yeah, again, root and flash your phone.

3. Don't worry about the camera. So far, I never heard a story of someone who cracked their lens. The camera quality on stock is actually quite good and on normal CM not really. But, by flashing camera mod you can really improve it and make it close to stock. Also, the piece of glass in front of the lens can be broken. Some users, like me, make better pictures without the back cover on. This is because the piece of glass in front of the lens can be quite dirty and full of fingerprints. That's why I decided to cut it out :D. Don't worry about the lens, it has its own protection too.

Hope this helped!
[LG Optimus 2x] Mungulz:
What protection is that..?
[LG Optimus 2x] LarsPT:
Even when you remove the back cover the camera still has the lens (just like any normal compact camera), The back cover is actually only there to prevent the lens from getting dirty, I believe, and it's easy to clean (every time I take a picture I clean the back cover with my shirt and the results are pretty good :) )

Now, regarding the OP, I bought it and I don't regret my purchase not one bit. It's true a lot of people complain about bugs and crashes but my experience even with the stock Froyo ROM was actually good. And when I flashed a custom ROM what was already good just got great.

So yeah, I would say there's nothing out there that beats the price/quality on the O2X.
[LG Optimus 2x] SP1996AC:
@LarsPT

Uhuh, that's true. The lens has its own piece of glass in front of it which protects it. The extra piece of glass from the backcover is just to make sure that the lens doesn't get dirty. In my case, this extra glass remains dirty even if I try to clean it. Therefore I decided to cut it out... :D
[LG Optimus 2x] Beplexor:
Thanks a lot for that detail. I'd like to ask a couple more questions though :)

I can see that you're using CM7. I've thought about rooting the O2X if I ever got it, but I've heard that the camera and video recording is a bit screwed up if you root the O2x with CM. Is this true? If this is, there are many ways to fix it right?

Once again thanks. The main things I want to use a phone such as the 2X for is web browsing, gaming, mail on the go and cameras.
[LG Optimus 2x] nexus2515:
NOT AT ALL

In CM, there has been ported a camera app(stock LG) due to which it is just good
[LG Optimus 2x] LarsPT:
I think you'll be more than happy with the O2X to do all of the above.

If you want to check picture quality you can check it here:

The first four photos (take a look at the arc de la défense) were taken with it, I like it.
[LG Optimus 2x] Beplexor:
Thanks to everyone who's posted. I've just got one more question for people who have rooted their 2X. The web browsing seems quite laggy when using stock froyo (perhaps gingerbread?). When you root the phone, is this problem solved? Thanks.
[LG Optimus 2x] LarsPT:
Hi Beplexor!

When I'm surfing the web the only time I get a "laggy" experience is when the reception is not so great, like when I'm on the train or bus. If I'm at a fix position with HDSPA it surfs great. I haven't even felt the need to user another browser other than the stock one.

Really, there's nothing I can throw at this phone that it can't handle! I'm not the most demanding of users, but still, I find it great!
[LG Optimus 2x] vrowdy:
I'm glad everyone is so positive about this phone, but I am not.

It has lots of issues and glitches, and although tweaking, rooting and installing custrom roms is certainly nice, there is always this or that 'wrong' with it. It all depends on what you want.

If you like tweaking and messing around and don't mind some rough edges, then yes, it is a nice phone which works well.

If you want a phone that just works, then no, this phone is not a good idea.

Stock firmware has major issues, dependant on some unknown variables - could be hardware revision, could be network, could be xxx.. Fact is, that I cannot use stock firmwares of Gingerbread properly at all. And there are more people with this problem. The cell-radio keeps crashing. CM 7.1/7.2 does not have this problem, so I'm using this.

However, voice quality is poor, I have issues with Wifi not wanting to activate after 2-3 days and I need to reboot every 1-2 days anyway because of performance drops. After 48 hours it is impossible, for example, to watch a Youtube video, use Skype or play any game. After a reboot performance is great again.

So, it all depends on what you want with and expect from a phone. And of course how much money you're willing to spend and a whole lot of other factors :)

And as for the CM9 builds (ICS): the camera doesn't work properly and things like FM radio don't work (properly). Also, no HW acceleration so some newer ICS apps don't work either. So, I'm eagerly awaing the official LG ICS to see how that fares.

Bottom-line: I'm not saying the phone is bad for everyone or it's a piece of crap, I'm just saying that if it is important to you that the phone 'just works' and 'always works', then this phone is not a good idea.
[LG Optimus 2x] LarsPT:
If your phone was crap with stock firmware I think you have a faulty equipment and should have asked for a replacement.

My phone worked great with stock and works excellent with custom.

No matter what brand you choose there will always be faulty equipment. Of course, some brands have tighter quality control then others, and that reflects on the price.

For the price of this phone it is normal to expect worse quality control, this just means the probability of getting a faulty equipment are higher, you just have to test it properly and send it back if it doesn't work.

Of course, if this is something you would rather pay more and not have to worry about this, I would advise against LG, but so far this is my second LG phone and I'm a happy customer!
[LG Optimus 2x] vrowdy:
Thanks for your reply. Based on my experiences with the device, I am pretty sure it's not faulty equipment.

The price of the phone was close to 500 euros when I got it, so the argument about the price doens'nt really hold, imho.

Let's just say there are people that are happy with it, and there are also a lot of people that are unhappy. Therefore, I personally cannot recommend this phone if you want one that always/just works.
[LG Optimus 2x] LarsPT:
We might have some semantics problems here.

In your original post you say "Stock firmware has major issues, dependant on some unknown variables - could be hardware revision, could be network, could be xxx.. "

When you say the hardware revision is a factor, for me hardware revisions are there because the older hardware had flaws. For me this qualifies as faulty equipment.

The "current" hardware revision, or at least the one I've got, worked fine out of the box. Maybe that's why you're not as happy a customer as I am, because you got a "hardware revision" from back when the price was still 500 eur. Now I can say it's much better, I've had no issues so far at all.
[LG Optimus 2x] Beplexor:
Hi guys, I'm only 15 years old and any phone I buy will be bought using my own money earned from a part time job. I want a medium-high end phone, but it's my own money and I'm not willing to cash out heaps, therefore I think the O2X will be a great choice. I understand it's not the most stable phone out there, but the fact remains that it IS a very affordable dual core phone.

I know that you guys say root and flash the moment you get it, but like some people say in this thread, the phone doesn't seem to work to its full potential e.g absence of certain applications, shady camera etc. If I get the phone, it's highly likely that I'll just wait until stock ICS comes out, which isn't far away; LG promised it within Q2 of this year.
[LG Optimus 2x] SP1996AC:
Yeah, well I wouldn't wait for LG if I were you. It's more likely that they will release ICS during the 2nd quarter of 2013 than this year...

Also, the stock rom doesn't get the full potential out of the phone because the stock software is just really, really bad. The O2X has a great piece of hardware but this crappy stock rom makes the phone so ****ty...

The only way to get the full potential out of this device is to root and flash it with any custom rom and kernel. Trust me, you'll notice an enormous difference in speed, stability and smoothness.
[LG Optimus 2x] Beplexor:
I'll definitely give that advice a chance...just wondering, if I were to root it, I'd just go into the Android Development section right? Could you please link me to clear tutorials on how to flash CM (such as the one you have right now) onto the O2X? Thanks.
[LG Optimus 2x] SP1996AC:
I think this should pretty much cover everything... :

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/LG_Optimus_2X:_Full_Update_Guide
[LG Optimus 2x] Beplexor:
Thanks a lot for that! I've actually decided to get the O2X now, just ordered it! I have just been on the official cyanogenmod site and I've come across the mod for O2X. There is a list of of three downloads: Stable Mod, Experimental Mod and Nightly Builds. Which one is the version that you currently have?

Finally, I'd just like to clear things up fully. On the version that you have, what are the main issues (if they exist at all)? For me, cameras, gaming, web browsing and texting are a must; they all work fine right? I'd still like to be aware of any other bugs or non-fully functioning aspects of CM. Thanks!
[LG Optimus 2x] SP1996AC:
Uhmm... I use the Unofficial Build (KANG) from Temasek. Don't worry, it's still CM but then with some extra little goodies baked in (cherry-pickings). With other words, I use a CM7 version compiled by an user, Temasek, instead of a CM7 version compiled by the official CM bot. But if you want an official CM7, then you should use the latest Nightly Build, because they're far more stable than the 'Stable Mod', not to mention that nightlies are even better too. Actually, you can compare Temaseks Unofficial build with the latest nightly, I believe there's not much difference between them. Nevertheless, a lot of people like his Unofficial builds.

There are no issues for CM7 I believe. I'm using it for about four months now (actually three, I also played a month around with CM9 which is a little too buggy for me, but it was awesome anyway :D) However you should keep in mind that the camera quality of CM7 is not so good, compared to the stock camera quality. This is because the camera needs special libs from the stock LG rom to work good and those libs don't work on CM7 for some reason. But, there's a solution to that! Go to Temaseks KANG thread (link in signature) and go the third post. There you'll find a whole lot of mods compiled by other users. Download and flash the camera mod by Kostja_V in CWM recovery. This improves the camera a lot.

Hope this helped!
[LG Optimus 2x] LarsPT:
Hi Beplexor!

First of all congratulations on your purchase, I hope it will meet your expectations and that your hard earned money will not go to waste.

Just a couple of things I would like to suggest. When you do get your phone spend one week or two test-driving it. And throw everything you can at it... Use GPS, 3G, data, Wi-fi, Radio... make sure everything works as it should. If not do your best to demand for a working unit. LG is not so good on quality control, or so it seems.

Also, unless you're flashing ICS, all custom ROMs are fully featured, there is nothing broken. And in ICS the only broken feature is hardware acceleration which is needed for high resolution video playback and recording, and any applications that might use it (like Chrome for example which uses HW acceleration for smoother scrolling).

All the best and welcome to the forum! When you do start experimenting with your phone let us know and we'll point you out in the right directions. I strongly suggest that you take your time and do one thing at a time, if possible with the guidance of someone in here :)
