I was having /sd-ext issues before flashing BO2.0. Unable to read, write, mount or unmount, format, or wipe. Flashed BO2.0 and still having /sd-ext issues. I'm able to play music, pictures, video through the phone, but won't do anything when in CWM (always comes up with error). I discovered this when trying to go back to stock unrooted ZV8 using Mt's AIO, but kept getting permission denied when it comes to the sd-ext (mounting, wiping etc). The AIO rebooted my phone while tethered, but just went back to what I was running before (ZV8 rooted with BO1.1). I would like to accomplish root on ZV9 with BO2.0 flashed and fix my /sd-ext issues. Any thoughts?

EDIT: When using the No-Frills Widget it death vibrates. Backup Assistant disabled? I can't restore my contacts.

MT, thanks for the patch. I flashed it and now voice search isn't working again. I uninstalled and reinstalled voice search and that fixed it, but wanted to let you know. What other improvements is the patch supposed to fix?
[LG Revolution] meabrams:
Don't know if anyone else has had this issue but after flashing to Broken Out 2.0 I get random force close that popup and gone before I can see what the problem is (theses are coming up only during during the Sd scan process) The other issue is when I'm watching video through the browser (Jet flicks) it will stop the video and goto the boot animation them back to the stopped video and then back to the boot animation and it will do this 3 or 4 times before it completely reboots into cwm....

Got to the point that I had to reflash Broken Out 2.0 beta (can't have the phone down while I'm at work trying to stay awake lol)

Does the software update try to run for people that upgraded to BO 2.0 from v8?

For me, it was like aio easy. Flashed v8 tot, updated to v9, used mt's aio for root, used easy v8 for cwm, flashed latest bo, got vod (vibe of death), wiped everything, still had vod, flashed blitz 3.0 beta. NO MORE ISSUES!! Just dsp manager fc's all the time. I would like to try that out :D

Going from BO 1.1 to 2.0

I am seeing many others ask the same questions and no definitive answer being given.People have asked "what is the ideal pre update configuration?" "What do I need to do . . . ?

Perhaps the OP should be revised to have a clearer set of instructions?

Many of us are on Broken Out v 1.1 on ZV8. We froze the system update because BO 1.1 couldn't handle it, because root would be lost, all kinds of reasons. We were fine with a our BO 1.1 rooted Revos, albeit with nonfunctional bluetooth.

We would like to upgrade.

The classic forum response of "the answer was posted previously" is frankly B.S. - it was not and the thread has 74 messages. It should be in message "1"!

So, please guide us someone. We'd like to have functional phones. We'd like to take advantage of and enjoy what sounds like a great development job by mtmichaelson.

what are the easy steps - assuming NOTHING - from zv8 BO 1.1 to zv9 rooted BO 2.0? numerical order, with links to all required files, scripts, etc.!

I have put these kinds of lists together on other threads for other phones and devices for others in the community. Now I am asking for some help!

THANK YOU for your patience.
[LG Revolution] iamjerry123:
I flashed it over 1.1 vz8. Perfectly fine.
[LG Revolution] idivorceyou:
thanks iamjerry. do you have bluetooth? did you retain root? did you freeze the system update to zv9?
[LG Revolution] JetBlue:
It's really not that hard at all to go to v9 and get root and cwm it's as fast if not faster than v8. All the files are in the development section.
[LG Revolution] :
I was curious about the same thing.

I was on ZV8 BO 1.1 with root and CWM

Basically, I just flashed BO 2.0 over my setup, then the patch 2.0.1.

Reboot the phone, unquarantined software update and it's been running fine for several days.

I initially had the same Calendar FC issue some were having but my solution was to go into manage application, open calendar and just clear cache and data. Once my calendars re-synched it run just fine.

That's it for me. I had one vibe of death when I set the clock speed higher so I've throttled back to 1.4 and I am fine.

Not once has software update popped up and I even did a manual "check for new updates" and it found nothing.
[LG Revolution] I.M.famous XMAN:
Sorry i didn't post any links was at work and at work now. Will add them later.
[LG Revolution] :
Speaking from personal experience. I am sure there was a reason that Verizon and LG felt it necessary to release a ZV9 update, and I always like to have the latest software anyway. So I recommend updating to ZV9, then rooting, then installing CWM, then flashing BO 2.0.1.

Other configurations may work fine as well, but that is what I did, and having the latest version of all software can never be a bad thing!

Steps Involved/Walk Through

As far as getting to ZV9, I flashed the ZV7 TOT, then OTA'd to ZV8, then OTA'd to ZV9. I couldn't get unrooting and flashing back to stock recovery with any of the AIOs to work so I just gave up and TOTed it....

I wanted to also post a link to another tool that can be used to flash CWM after you root ZV9 using the LG Esteem root trick.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1630821

I can confirm that the tool worked for me. Just an FYI...

---------- Post added at 10:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:50 PM ----------

It should say v2.0.1 after you flash the recently added patch from MT (check out the OP). The patch fixes the issues with Voice Search force closing plus a couple other tweaks to the kernel from MT.
[LG Revolution] iamjerry123:
I flashed 2.0.1.... and it freaking removed my status bar
[LG Revolution] teh Phil:
That's probably the launcher. I had the same problem, until I explored the Xperia options and saw a "swype up to hide notification bar" option was checked. I ended up replacing it with the ADW launcher from 1.1, as I'd gotten used to the increased customization (5 dock programs, adjusting columns/rows, etc.).

Also:

The phone seems to be the most stable (for me) with a 1.6 GHz max

BlitzKrieg 3.0 beta seems to be smoother, even after the 2.0.1 patch

Still getting the FC for DSP manager, but a quick freeze and it's no longer a problem.

Also getting a persistent FC for "com.google.process.gapps"

As someone else stated, if the calendar is being temperamental clearing the data/cache fixes it.

I thought I was on ZV9 prior to going to BO2 but apparently not because it shows ZV8. Is there a way to get to 9 without starting over?
[LG Revolution] Blammo79:
To be safe, I did the following and have no almost no issues on BO 2.0.1, the only issue still being occasional screen freezes.

1) Flashed the ZV8 tot to go back to stock.

2) Did a factory reset to wipe all data (included the internal SD card

3) Used Software update to upgrade to ZV9 OTA

4) Did another factory resent (including the internal SD)

5) Rooted and installed CWM using the easy all in 1 for ZV8 (still works on ZV9).

6) booted into CWM and installed BO 2.0

7) let it boot up and activated it.

8) installed 2.0.1 patch.

9) installed all apps through the market(s), and then used Titanium backup to restore data only.

10) Got phone set up the way I want with ADW launcher.

11) had to flush data and cache of a couple of apps, like Gmail and browser

Overall, its running the best the phone ever has. It is very quick and responsive. Haven't even tried the Blitz 3.0 beta yet. If I find that there is too much lag/FC/vibe o death/reboots, I may flash it, but otherwise, I am loving it!

Thanks MT and everyone else who has put work into the Revo! Almost got rid of it for a GNex, and while I think I want to eventually go the Nexus route down the road, this new update really turned things around for this phone! Great work!

I am slightly confused in regards to using the Blitz 3.0 beta kernel with the new BO v2.0 (2.0.1) ROM. Can someone please clarify if flashing the Blitz 3.0 beta kernel gives better stability and performance? I had thought that the Blitz 3.0 beta kernel was for BO v1.1 primarily and that the new BO v2.0 already comes with an improved Blitz kernel that added additional I/O scheduling, governors, and overclocking capabilities compared to Blitz 3.0 beta, which does not have that capability. Please correct me if I am wrong in my understanding of this. Thank you in advance!!

Hey just wanted to let you know that I was trying to run BO 2.0.1 but had issues with constant rebooting no matter what I did. I finally went back to ZV8 updated to ZV9 then rooted and put on CWM ran BO 2.0 still had rebooting issue loaded the patch and it ran better but still had reboots. I read another post that someone put out that they used the Blitz kernel 3.0 beta so I loaded it and no more reboots and I even got it to OC to 1.9 with no over heating and no reboots. Works great... only issue I have now is the DSP manager but found that if you don't use the extreme bass that the FC isn't an issue..... Thank you MT for this work exceptional.....ran all day 10 plus hours using email and browser and still at 58%....

I've downloaded this several times, both on my phone and computer and I just can't get it to install on my Revo. I install from SD in CWM and it runs through the install (kind of quick) without any errors but when I reboot and check About Phone it still has Blitz 2.6. Anyone else having this issue lately?
[LG Revolution] ScallywagginIT:
I believe that the 2.6 is referring to the linux based kernel version (2.6.35.7) used within the Blitz 3.0 beta kernel. "Blitz 3.0 beta" is merely a version scheme created by MT. I am running the Blitz 3.0 beta kernel currently and my system info. shows:

2.6.35.7-perf+
