If you are on the March 2012 baseband then you need to be running a 21y 2.3.4 based ROM, not 2.3.3.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] cricketAC:
As of writing this post, the calls on radio baseband doesn't work with the v21y update.you need 2.3.4 version stock or a Variation of it to make audio calls work.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jeffrimerman:
It's funny you say that. I was reading an article that apple got an injunction to stop it from coming in so they were held at customs. Some suit about patent infringement. It said htc came up with a work around to get them in while they sort it out. Maybe htc had to install it to enable the work around then unroot once whatever it was got working?...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ImaWinRAR:
you might as well go and check the bootloader for S-OFF too :p
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sebrina:
Yeah... I highly doubt it.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mrrogers1:
I do mean this in as humorous as a way as possible. You must have been away from XDA LTE forum and most all technical media for yhe last 2wk to have missed this one. :)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sebrina:
Are you being serious? I can't tell...

We would have had this phone a long time ago if it wasn't for crApple please don't my wheels started, I'm not even going to go there.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jeffrimerman:
Now I can't tell if your being serious. It was supposed to come out a week earlier and so I'm assuming it was held up while they did what they had to do. Or do you mean it came out a long time before that?

I've been using my rooted photon for a few months so never had a need for the lte forum, so yes I've been away from it.

I'll get started reading since I have my LTE.

Does everyone here on this forum have an LTE? I'm assuming not....

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jeffrimerman:
I bet that's right

Yeah, hehe, I think that's what happened. It downloaded a bunch of apps automatically. That is awesome, haha! I wonder if it downloaded all the apps I downloaded to my photon. That would be sweet.

edit: It only download some apps. I'm having to download a few more
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] timothydonohue:
boot into the bootloader and see what it says. if you have s-off, we need a system dump. if you just have SU installed, and it's just sitting there, not a big deal.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jeffrimerman:
I don't think I have s-off, but when I hit the power and volume down it doesn't seem to want to go to bootloader. I try some more

Sooo much fail in this thread. The superuser app was obvious installed automatically when he signed into his Google account and agreed to backup/restore his apps with Google.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jeffrimerman:
Yeah, I agree. I guess not many knew that happens. I only remember it saying transfer settings, but it probably did say apps at the end of that question. At least if someone does a search they should find this thread and everyone on this thread will know nextime anyone wonders how apps ended up on their phone. Thanks Maxadamage
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rlanza1054:
I backed up my apps using Asus's App Backup Program.

But when I try to restore an app, it won't open file no matter what password I try to enter, which I never set a password to begin with.

I tested this issue by just backing up one app with no password set and then trying to restore and once again it won't open the file.

Thanks

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DAvid_B:
Worked for me when i went from a 16 to 32.

I did set a password though
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TXKSSnapper:
When I backed up an app (in order to use sparky root) I'm pretty sure I was forced to enter a password for the backup. Are you sure you were able to have no password?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rlanza1054:
I actually ran several tests, by just backing up one app for speed. I ran one test without entering for a password and another test using a simple 4 number password which is the minimum allowed.

The backup app would not open any of the backed up files?

Can you try testing it out for me? Just backup one file, with or without a password. Then try to restore it. See if it will open the file to start the restore process.

Thanks

[Blade General] IceCreamSandwich4.0:
Is it possible to replace my Blade's TFT LCD with an AMOLED/SAMOLED screen (Not OLED)?

I know OLED screens get burned but nothing happened to my sister's Samsung Galaxy S+ which is AMOLED.

I know how to replace the screen but I just wanna know if the TFT LCD board will support an AMOLED screen?

Also do you know any brands of AMOLED's which work with the Blade?

I don't have to replace the Digitizer, right?(Usually there is a gap between the display and Digitizer, but in AMOLED this isn't there... :confused:)

Anybody who has done this before?

[T-Mobile LG G2x] ZiZi_G2X:
LG just released a sound update for the g2x v21y firmware. Sound on voice calls is much improved!.. I just downloaded it and am talking it on right now. Two words much improved.. I know a lot of you guys are complaining about the clicking and buzzing noises, this might fix it.

http://support.lgforum.com/lg/topics/t_mobile_g2x_update_for_sound_quality
[T-Mobile LG G2x] andrewNY:
Thanks for the post. Does this change anything visible such as version or baseband numbers?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ZiZi_G2X:
Not that I can see... You don't even use the lg updater tool for this update, they make you download a separate exe file that runs the software update.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Sk8trfred:
link?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nightf0x:
I wonder if this will let those of us on 21y use custom roms and make calls.

It's in the first post..
[T-Mobile LG G2x] buru898:
Nice I'll do this soon.

EDIT:

Ok going to do it now... haha Chrome tells me the .exe "appears malicious."
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dragonrider8844:
I tried it and it reinstalls everything. Data still there, but you lose root, custom kernel, and custom recovery
[T-Mobile LG G2x] buru898:
Did you nvflash cwm and install any non 2.3.4 stock ROM to see if sound in call works?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dragonrider8844:
I haven't yet. I was heading to gym so I restored my backup. Going to try when I get home
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Nexus Cable:
Downloading the tool down. Funny, I just made a thread about call audio being bad. Going to try this out. Also read above that it resets everything to bone stock, after flashing to a new ROM, will the updated audio fix be retained?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tahahawa:
Someone make a nandroid of this, ASAP! This could be the key to fully working March 2012 baseband on ics!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dragonrider8844:
I just installed an ICS rom and there still is the clicking sound :(
[T-Mobile LG G2x] buru898:
Well I did the "update" and flashed cwm and restored my 2.3.3 backup of bionix and calls work for me now (using grooveIP as my phone is disconnected at the moment) and before I'd get the static noise.

So I'm assuming it worked for me, I'm PRETTY sure I still got the popping noise when using grooveIP? I'll restore another backup and see if anything else changed.

Restored an ICS backup and call works through grooveIP still...

Hmm... wonder if they did just change something minor in the baseband to allow it to work?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] moeahmad1995:
Of course it is going to be malicious, it is from LG :p I want more people to say it works before I update to the new baseband. Anyone else try it yet?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dragonrider8844:
Maybe it only works with wifi calling and grooveIP. It didn't work with 4g
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cricketAC:
So what did they fix? In their article they write its for the clicking, popping sound that some users face.

Should I update or should I not?

Sent from my LG-P999
[T-Mobile LG G2x] andrewNY:
I think the most likely thing is that they changed something in the ROM itself (like the RIL, or similar code), so flashing another ROM isn't going to benefit.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Nexus Cable:
Okay, so finally after several hours of installing this and that, I finally got back to a stock rooted 2.3.4 v21y. I figured cool, its working now, no call audio issues. Proceeded to install EB (GB 2.3.7) and now I'm getting the clicking and popping sounds. Going back to stock again and seeing if I can run this update, then reinstall EB to see if call audio is fixed.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] redmonke255:
What baseband are you on?

And guys this update is most likely supposed to be used on phones that have the latest baseband in conjunction to having the stock 2.3.4 rom. I doubt it's meant to make better audio quality if you're still on the old baseband.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tahahawa:
I have gotten the program used to flash the update, smartflash. And the bin it used. And the dlls. It doesn't look very helpful though.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] BuddhaTeh1337:
im still on stock v21y w/sound update. did someone say they needed a nandroid?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cricketAC:
Its better if you do it. It might help some1 down the road.

About updating, i don't know. I never had clicking, popping sound during audio calls. Mine was the leaked version update, maybe ppl who got it OTA got this problem. I don't wanna go over the hassle of updating, losing root, CWM etc just to find it it doesn't do sh!t to my phone. lol.

Thou its a fact that the new baseband issue and the audio calls popping clicking sound hasn't been fixed with this update.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] BuddhaTeh1337:

[T-Mobile LG G2x] buru898:
Probably if you don't wipe or format /system, maybe you'll keep some files that let audio work or something?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] syl0n:
Flashing Cyanogen wipes System.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] buru898:
Then it's something else in the ROM partition that has the capable files that isn't in /system.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] BuddhaTeh1337:
im guessing they just made a minor change to the V21Y Baseband, not the rom. i havent tried flashing ICS or any other non gingerbread roms since my phone is a speed beast on meth right now and i'd like to keep it that way. hrrrrm....maybe i should do a banchmark and see where im at cuz its super niiice. =]

PS

downloaded 2XL MX Unleashed or w/e, GTA3, Trial Xtreme 2, and its still snappy and lag free. I <3 my G2X lol
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DustyVV:
Installed the sound update, and tried going back to Weapon (2.3.3). No luck...still have that popping (or whatever the heck that is) on calls. Perhaps it's because I used Nandroids, rather than wipe/fresh installs. IDK.

Guess I'm stuck with stock 2.3.4. If the GPS wasn't so much improved, I'd go back to the old bb and Weapon. Weapon was much more stable, and feature rich. :(

Anyway...there's my 2 cents. For anyone wondering if this would work for 2.3.3.

Note: wifi calling on 2.3.3 was fine, with or w/o the sound update. It's calls off the tower that got the noise.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] redmonke255:
Can anyone else confirm that the posted method works fit CM7.2?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] FatalityBoyZahy:

[T-Mobile LG G2x] Dralanmage:
I can confirm it works for me. I'm running the new RC3 CM 7.2 with v21y and the LG sound update. Audio is fine in calls.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] xBkKx:
Did factory reset/system wipe from 2.3.4 and flashed CM7-RC3 in-call audio is working perfect here also. Wifi Calling and on network
[T-Mobile LG G2x] redmonke255:
Wow that's awesome I'll have to give it a shot. And gps lock is still great, due to the latest baseband?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Dralanmage:
GPS lock was fast when I tried it... only been running it a few hours. However, I noticed my satellite strength bars were funky again. They weren't as high as they were pre v21y, but they were in the 300s and maxed out in gpstest.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] syl0n:
I can confirm that calls work fine with this baseband update in CM7.

GPS signal bars are still broken but that's a CM7 bug, I think the values need to be divided by 10 and then they look about right. Maybe someone should submit a patch to CM. :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] FatalityBoyZahy:
Awesome! Maybe CM9-based ROMs will work now? o_O

[T-Mobile LG G2x] mustangtim49:
I'll also confirm cm7.2RC3 everything including wifi calling works

Just wanted to add, that GPS lock was instantaneous. I have to say, anyone who experiences this phone will agree, this is probably now one of the best phones you can have. Period. Yes, have rebooted multiple times
[T-Mobile LG G2x] g1user101:
I'm coming back to g2x. So the new sound update works with cm7 rc3?? Have u guys rebooted and tried calling multiple times
[T-Mobile LG G2x] xBkKx:

Anyone tried a different kernel? I'm gonna try now.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dragonrider8844:
Im using Faux's 049b1 UV one and it works. Haven't tried 50b yet
[T-Mobile LG G2x] redmonke255:
Everyone has used this with RC3, what about RC2? I think this build was just made for the new baseband and the sound update didn't change anything in relation to roms (seeing as miui doesn't work with it).
[T-Mobile LG G2x] xBkKx:
I personally don't see why anyone would think the sound update would have anything to do with fixing the issue in custom ROMs, why would LG care about that? It works in RC3 IMO because the CM team did something in their ROM to make it work, the sound update is just for issues some people have been getting even while on stock, again, IMO
[T-Mobile LG G2x] syl0n:
I have gone through CM commits and I don't see anything related to this recently?

[T-Mobile LG G2x] DeerSteak:
Curse you, now I'm downloading CM7.2 RC3. I found that SuperOneClick 2.3.3.0 works with the audio fix ROM, and ROM Manager supposedly flashed CWM 5.0.2.0 (though I haven't tried rebooting into recovery yet). And I thought I was happy with the stock ROM, too, but the temptation is great...lol.

edit: ROM manager's CWM was a bust (didn't flash, just rebooted into stock recovery - battery pull and reboot worked to get me back) but I found the NVFlash one-click recovery. Live and learn. I've had 3 different T-Mo android phones (Optimus T, Vibrant, and now G2x) and all 3 were just a little different. ROM Manager worked for the Optimus T (which my wife has running CM 7.2 RC2), flashing the Vibrant was a HUGE PITA, and this is just different again.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tahahawa:
do not use rom manager to flash recovery. Ever. Use nvflash.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] homerxd:
Battery life seems to be better on stock rom. Did you do anything to improve it on cm7?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Dralanmage:
Odd. I am having the opposite experience, and I haven't done much to CM yet. I'm still running their default kernel.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] homerxd:
I was getting 30+ hours of light to moderate usage on stock. On CM7 the battery is depleting at a faster rate. I'll run couple of cycles and check if it changes anything.

Also the speaker volume is definitely lower than stock ROM. Everything else seems to be fine so far.

I really hope Owain can fix his ICS ROM soon so it will be compatible with the new baseband! I miss ICS. >:(
