[LG Optimus Black] dabyd64:
Boype, thanks again for your efforts trying to make our LG crap a nice phone.

I downloaded and installed your last build, "cm-7-20120805-p970-boype".

Of course wiped cache, data and dalvik before flashing.

The problem is that I have no sound on the call speaker when calling. If I switch to the back loudspeaker then I hear the voice on it.

I thought this problem was fixed on last version :(

On previous versions the call speaker problem was fixed sometimes by changing the calling volume level, making that made the sound appear suddently on it.

*edit*

well, it seems that my earpiece speaker just broke down :( it also doesn't work with the stock rom...
[LG Optimus Black] boype:
Yeah that bug was reported before... I'm confident I can fix that. [EDIT] actually I just fixed it ;)

:eek: can other confirm?
[LG Optimus Black] dabyd64:
:( I've just edited my post. it seems that the call speaker is broken...

*edit*

Confirmed. Is the same damn connector that also causes the usb and the power key problems for some people.

I just can't understand how a static connector just stop working...it must be a worst crap available...i'll fix it and try again your rom. Thanks bope :)

*edit2*

connector fixed. Put some tape on it to make a bit of pressure when closing the phone. Now i'll flash your latest rom...:P

*edit3*

All working fine! :)
[LG Optimus Black] dfavefenix:
I have flashed it, doing all wipes, reinstalling all apps from scratch, and everything is perfect!
[LG Optimus Black] dabyd64:
Well, both made a great support for our phone.

This kind of projects can be very annoying because of its bugs and problems.

Devs will end giving up if they get stressed too much, that's the first cause of them abandoning the projects.

Foe examle, months passing, lots of hours of effort, but lots of problems still existing. When that hapens most of us will think "Dammn! f*ck it!" and go away.

I'm sure that Ricardo spent lots of his free time on our device, but as LG and Texas are not helping too much in code or drivers...he surely abandoned, being fed up of the OB,

And boype continued this work, making a great work too.

So that's not thanks only to boype because Ricardo gave up, or thanks Ricardo but not boype because blahblah.

Thanks both for making my phone blazing fast, cool, useful, and stable! :D

And f*uk LG for making the worst support ever!
[LG Optimus Black] Mini Franki:
Boype you maybe didnt see my message about SOD
[LG Optimus Black] Mexickano:
I got my second SOD with latest update 05 August.
[LG Optimus Black] pepejose:
with all wipes before flash?
[LG Optimus Black] Mexickano:
OFC, I did it from CWM Recovery.
[LG Optimus Black] achyut:
BEST NON-STOCK ROM FOR OB!!! thanks for this absolutely great - super fantastic ROM!!!!

i might have been a regular user of it. too bad i have to use supressed for supporting the ROM :\ :|

This for Non-Stock and Zues for Stock. who says OB is dying ;)

thanks a lott!!!
[LG Optimus Black] Mini Franki:
I suggest to you to use ondemandx. I didnt get SOD since 1 week
[LG Optimus Black] Mexickano:
I will give a try, but what about lag, with ondemandX the launcher or something else lag?
[LG Optimus Black] Mini Franki:
I didnt notice a difference between smartassv2 and ondemandx. You dont lose to try it ;)
[LG Optimus Black] tantrums:
I made a test aroma installer script for this wonderful CM7 ROM.

The file below is just a demo installer, it wont flash anything

. Use CWM Recovery and choose install zip.

This is to add a more customized installation experience to all users.

All hardwork credit to boype.

- If boype permits, I can continue with the complete CM7 boype kang ROM with aroma installer.

+1 that would be great for gps fix and apps removed on rom install
[LG Optimus Black] Zulda:
SD card unmounting

Hi, I had Zeus ROM, but my GPS didn't work well. So I'm trying Boype. Here I found, that my SD card is often unmounted. Also, when I wake phone, there is "Card preparing" in notification area. Anyone has the same problem? Card was formatted, in Zeus I hade no problems.
[LG Optimus Black] vinziboy:
best rom for my OB...

just fLashed the Latest update yesterday...

wipe cache and daLvik onLy,

no SODs, no Lags speciaLLy on my high end games....

overaLL : very nice rom :good:

praise BOYPE for this project! :angel:

PS: just wanna ask if there's fuLL ICS theme for cm7(zip), can't seem to find any... :p
[LG Optimus Black] :
My god. This ROM is as active as a Volcano. I LIKE THE UPDATES.
[LG Optimus Black] Simbo_:
Ok I just flashed your build with some apps included (I had already downloaded it, but didn't have time to try). Awesome as before!

However, I applied lunar ui theme today but the status bar background won't change.. I messed a little bit with some themes (which shouldn't cause this problem) and I don't know if it has already been when I flashed the rom.

Anybody else experienced this issue?

[LG Optimus Black] bl4ck0p5:
what CM7 setting are u using for status bar? i found out that if i leave that setting on "default" and use a theme that supports transparent or semi transparent status bar (such as Meizu and MIUI) the appearance will automatically change, including the status bar. Try this and see what u get :]
[LG Optimus Black] ThunderBolt_BR:
Front Camera

Hi Boype!

Excellent job! The caller's voice is no longer saturated. Thank you again and also for returning the ROM to its pure format.

How do you manage to fix the front camera video recording? Setting its quality to low and the image is displayed again. Is there another way?

[]'s
[LG Optimus Black] adxgrave:
No problem here.
[LG Optimus Black] dcop7:
@boype

Could you add this commits?
[LG Optimus Black] adxgrave:
Download ics cm7 theme by sonny sekhon. Apply the theme via theme chooser.
[LG Optimus Black] dcop7:
And maybe other windows animation?

Thank you :)
[LG Optimus Black] ducanh.do88:
I come from CM9 nightly6. Full wiped but I got all stuff from CM7, no integrated things, and the same problem with wifi address (always 00:00:00:00:00:00). Can someone explain?
[LG Optimus Black] Simbo_:
Oh sorry, I talked of the background of the expanded status bar.. :o

Here a screenshot of my problem:

hope you know how it should look like..
[LG Optimus Black] Park82:
wifi not connecting

Hi guys. Coming from Zeus, I just flashed this. Looking and feeling very slick.Thank you!

However I am not able to connect to my WiFi from it. Any ideas? I am running

WPA2-PSK with AES encryption.

:confused:

/Forgot to mention that my router is set to Wireless N only, never had a problem with that tho. Edit: switched it to b/g/n and still cant connect.

/tried to set to static IP, still cant connect.

Mac address shows up as 00:00:00:00:00:00

Running out of ideas now, help pls.

Okay found this now:

I don't have stock anymore but made a backup of Zeus, going to try to get the config file from there.

Edit:

Wanted to copy data.ext3.tar to my pc to try and extract. USB Storage is also not working on my device... /runs back to Zeus

Really a pity because this rom seems very fast/smooth, thanks for all your efforts thought boype.
[LG Optimus Black] bl4ck0p5:
is this what u're talking about?

---------- Post added at 03:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:25 PM ----------

oh, when the notification bar is pulled down, now i get it. did u try restarting ur phone after applying the theme? sometimes it solves the problem with a cm7 theme.
[LG Optimus Black] Park82:
Yeah it seems so as in my edited post... To bad USB storage seems broken as well.
[LG Optimus Black] Mexickano:
Im getting issues with normal calls again, the sound is quite noisy when I do or receive a call, should I reinstall again with full wipe to solve calls sound and front camera vide recording?
[LG Optimus Black] atillaahun:
Why would a reflash solve an obvious bug? Meaning the second one of course.
[LG Optimus Black] dabyd64:
Something strange happended yesterday. Battery was at 100%, I went to sleep at about 4 AM. Next day at 11AM the phone was dead, battery 0%.

And there were just a few wakelocks every hour from my email.

I had my CPU settings at min.400MHZ, max 1200MHz, interactiveX.

After than weird thing I reverted to 200MHz min and it no longer happened.

Now I'm at 60% after 7hours, because I forgot to disable the wifi.
[LG Optimus Black] Mexickano:
Cuz there are other persons who aren't suffering the same issue as me, ok?, thanks for your help.
[LG Optimus Black] Simbo_:
I always rebooted after applying a theme...

[LG Optimus Black] ErnuB:
You don't want/need a high setting on low cpu, it would drain battery, Boype was actually aming for 100 - 1200 but such low cpu caused SoDs
[LG Optimus Black] dabyd64:
I had set that way previously so it started at 400MHz minimum, to avoid SODs, and no problem so far until yesterday.

This was the first time it went wrong, it was like if the phone was stalled at 400MHz and not going to sleep.
[LG Optimus Black] ducanh.do88:
Sorry but can you reup download link of 20120803 version?
[LG Optimus Black] kinjal:
Till i install this rom people told me that my voice is not clear and sounds with echo. I don't have similar problems with other roms. Any ideas?

Wysłane z mojego LG-P970
[LG Optimus Black] dabyd64:
Again the strange battery consumption, and it ended in a SOD.

Pics attached.

I'll go back to the last 300-600-800-1000MHz version
[LG Optimus Black] Mexickano:
You mean:

200-1000/1200

300-1000/1200

Etc.

Cuz there ate many combinations.
[LG Optimus Black] raffux3:
do you have 5 august version??

---------- Post added at 05:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:11 PM ----------

me and another user we had this problem 10 pages ago but, he was not concerned
[LG Optimus Black] boype:
I did not read all posts that were posted since last time I checked the thread, but anyway:

I understand that the microphone during calls is still quite annoying. I guess I know why that is still the case. I'll release an update soon. Other than that, I haven't really done anything in terms of development. I felt like I needed a small break :)
[LG Optimus Black] Mexickano:
Thanks and you deserve it.
[LG Optimus Black] sekhar13515:
Why you feel it bricked..

Just install OS with Smartflash Tool

Use ROM converter for more help

Press THANKS button if i helped
[LG Optimus Black] raffux3:
don't worry we understand :)
[LG Optimus Black] dcop7:
If you have the time, add this features:

commits?

Thank you and good break :D
[LG Optimus Black] dabyd64:
I had the aug 05 version when I got that problem. Since boype added the underclock the SODs began, and since then every new build game me problems.

I'm back to the 2120704 version, which has been the most stable so far.

Thats why I said that I was going back to the last 300/600/800/1000MHz version, BEFORE any overclock/undercoclk modifications.

boype..can you make a ROM version without anything else than the gps and audio routing fixes? That would be great!

We need a stable phone, like the first versions of your ROM, I don't think that 100MHz less will give me lots of more battery juice... at the moment it has only given SODs and headaches for everyone.

I mean making a static ROM version, with just few add-ons, but working OK.

Then post the two ROM versions, so people can choose between the latest version with all the new add-ons and tweaks, or the "classic" without anything new nor updated but working. And continue your incredible work on the "development" release.

I don't know what other people think, but it would be nice to let them give their opinion.
[LG Optimus Black] Hbohd:
Don't say that newer versions gave headaches and Sods to EVERYONE, because with the final tweaked and modded cm7 i dont meet any problems..

But, it is still a good idea to add older versions with new fixes to first post ;) just for ppl who had problems :)

To boype: you have made significant progress with cm7 so you just deserve a break :D if u still have some enery, add new fixes aaaaand.. time for holidays !
[LG Optimus Black] dfavefenix:
Not a SoD or frozen screen i ve got :) in 5 days with the new release

Its just pure awesomeness!

Congratz boype!!!

PS For all getting some issue, reflash Rom with all wipes(Sd too) and reinstall apps from scracht one to one!
[LG Optimus Black] raffux3:
yes I agree. the 04 august is the best
[LG Optimus Black] dfavefenix:
Dont know that you do guys... I have flashed last versions,and not any SoD, just awesomeness....

But i do all wipes, sd too, stock kernel/governor (not oc or uc) and install all apps from scratch...
[LG Optimus Black] Mexickano:
It have the call sound issue?, I mean when you do a call the other person can hear you perfectly?
[LG Optimus Black] kinjal:
You make a great work. You have to take a free time... but please do it after you fix mic problem :)

Wysłane z mojego LG-P970
[LG Optimus Black] jatinmend:
Please read when you have some time

The call sound quality very poor and distorted

The problem in original cm7 and the roms based on it

Pl give update

There is no crystal clear sound like stock rom

i mean the both party i.e. listener and caller hear distorted sound

also it make the conversation annoying.
[LG Optimus Black] adxgrave:
Mee too doesn't have any problem with the latest version. I'm only cache and dalvik wipe from the previous version.

That being said, I flashed the previous version completely from scratch, add apps one by one from market an wipe sdcard too. No sod no echo (except when using loudspeaker during call but that understandable) and no nothing else except awesomeness. This is the best non-stock rom to date.

I'm also kind of agree with those who suggest to boype to avoid adding other thing like external commit, tweaks etc and such unless adding it will help fixing important rom functionality until this rom is stable for everyone. Adding things at this stage might introduce more bug. Later maybe boype can declare one as stable and continue from there for bleeding edge version.

Just my 2 cent. I'm happy with this one at the moment. Thanks to you boype and do take a break. You deserve it.
[LG Optimus Black] Mini Franki:
I dont know if you know about bluethooth no sound problem?

And i got a SOD with ondemandx too :(
[LG Optimus Black] 123egg:
I also got a problem

when I try to unlock my screen, I think it unlocks because I can still press bottoms but I cannot see anything on the screen (so phone unlocks but black screen) and I need to press vol+ & power to reboot

It happen 2 times under interactivex 200-1000mhz on a clean install of latest update, thx
[LG Optimus Black] di3cbl:
Erm this is an optimus black forum...

EDIT: Oh wait I get its bcos ur ob can't work lol my bad
[LG Optimus Black] Siguiriya:
A well deserved one, no doubt! I flashed the latest ROM yesterday and I'm having the same problem... on smartassv2(any freqs) if i start playing a song or receive call, the phone reboots into recovery. Not only this, buy i've noticed that the song i started playing will have 0 bytes after this...

Interactivex is working so far so good,no sod or wakelocks since yesterday.

Boype, pretty please look into this :)
[LG Optimus Black] dabyd64:
I haven't tried setting the G button for that...but in the advanced camera settings you can set vol+ or vol- to do the same thing, which is almost the same as using the G button. In fact using Vol+ is more comfortable than the Gkey.
[LG Optimus Black] vark75:
So, what is the solution?
[LG Optimus Black] ThunderBolt_BR:
Port stock Camera

Hi Boype,

First of all, thank you very much for this amazing ROM. It is nearly almost perfect and was the reason that made I buy another P970 for my father.

I would like to ask you if it is possible to port the camera drivers from the original ROM into CM7. Doing so would solve the HD videos recording issue, which in my opinion is the only major problem that is avoiding CM7 to become full stable for our devices.

Thank you again and congratulations for your hard work!

[]'s
[LG Optimus Black] boype:
I'm actually currently working to add the g-button as a possible camera shutter key. I'm quite positive that I can do it.

I'm also working on this issue at the moment. However, all I can think about is replacing the responsible modules from CM7 with the ones from stock ROM. However, I don't think that attempt will be very successful... But I'll do some more researching about the issue.

Also, I'm aiming to release a new version some time next week (like in 4 or 5 days). I don't have too much time at the moment, since I have to hand in a paper for university on Monday.

Download this and install. I included the correct wireless module.
[LG Optimus Black] TugaSoulHunter:
Hi there. I tried to install this ROM but it bricked my phone and I don´t know why....What is the problem? The zip file with the ROM have the Kernel inside or do I need to flash the Kernel after installing the ROM? Thanks

Edit: I manage to install the ROM now....just having a little question. Can I flash the LG keyboard over this ROM?
[LG Optimus Black] boype:
You gotta search if you can download the keyboard somewhere... you can probably even find an .apk file which you can simply install instead of flashing.
[LG Optimus Black] TugaSoulHunter:
I tested the LG keyboard that we can find in Zeus post but it doesn´t work...it gives me fc all the time. :/
[LG Optimus Black] boype:
I suppose then there's no way of making it work... Try this keyboard, it's what I'm using and it's pretty awesome :)

[LG Optimus Black] Siguiriya:
I've started getting sod and wakelocks with this rom. Only basic apps installed, so i'm sure it's the rom. Back to latest CM nightly.

Could it be the kernel?
[LG Optimus Black] boype:
Regarding wakelocks: I don't think so. Regarding SODs: Yes it may be the kernel. In fact it may even be the smartassV2 governor... But for the most part, my kernel is based on the same kernel as nightly (lge-kernel-sniper) with only very few tweaked parameters. I have not had a single SOD in over a month...

Anyway, next release will have interactiveX governor as default.
[LG Optimus Black] REAPER1992:
is it posiable for you to port "usb on the go" to this kernel
[LG Optimus Black] LookedPath:
it is since the 25 of june that i'm using your last kang and i had only a sod from an app that was installed in the sd card by the system because the setting was to automatically select the memory where the app should be stored... i think that is the origin of sods...
[LG Optimus Black] kirigaze:
Yup, I think interactiveX is much suitable with CM7. Just from my usage experience.
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
Hey guys, i am also using your kang and i gotta say, i am impressed ;) battery duration is very good, no lag, no sod or whatsoever ;) gonna post a screenshot of battery today. About 2 days with low usage for me :)
[LG Optimus Black] Mexickano:
What a good combination, pretty smooth and faster, the only thing that bother me is when it reboot by itself at the night. That's it.
[LG Optimus Black] kirigaze:
Could you tell me how you use the LauncherPro? Just installed it? Or should I remove the ADW first?
[LG Optimus Black] inso420:
First install Launcher PRO then uninstall ADW
[LG Optimus Black] boype:
I have updated my initial post (page 1) with the new version and screenshots.

Main additions to the new version:

all CM7 commits up to 2012-07-04

G-key usable as a launch button for the camera app, as shutter key inside the camera app, and also as music play/pause key when the screen is locked

option to set increasing ringtone

G-recovery

Sure it will :)

Best regards
[LG Optimus Black] boype:
First of all, thanks for the positive feedback.

The video recording stutter has been a known issue for months now and has been reported several times to the CM7 team. I'm afraid there's nothing I can do about it...

Also battery life in CM7 is known to be lower than on stock ROMs. It has been like this from the beginning, but the modifications I added improve the situation quite a bit. I recently tried to underclock the lowest frequency from 300 Mhz to 200 Mhz to save battery, but I was not very successful.
[LG Optimus Black] Mexickano:
I'm getting wakelocks with OnDemand and InteractiveX, now after almost 3 days using it issues start to appear, only if calls could get a better sound, now Im trying Temasek's one with Boype's Kernel, pretty good till now. Anyway i will come back to this rom.
[LG Optimus Black] boype:
eeeek... We've had that problem before. I'll check it out again.

I'll release a new version with a few fixes later today. I already give you the changelog right now:

- Another attempt to fix the 'overamped' microphone during handset calls (I'm not talking about the background noise issue here)

- Fixed front camera not working in high quality video mode

- Fixed GPS fix not setting permissions properly on first boot

- All CM7 commits up to August 9, 2012

- Kernel: Fixed the issue where the CPU ramped down (or appeared to ramp down!?) way below 200 MHz

[EDIT]

Some info regarding the messed up FM radio:

The FM radio turning on Bluetooth is NOT a bug, since the FM radio is integrated into the Bluetooth chip. It only appears that this is a bug, as the LG stock FM radio app hides that Bluetooth is activated. In reality, the stock FM radio app turns on bluetooth as much as the CM7 FM radio app does.
[LG Optimus Black] rop12770:
Until now, no problems with the latest version either. Sound is ok, no SOD..

[LG Optimus Black] ErnuB:
Aroma installer included?
[LG Optimus Black] atillaahun:
Thank you, I'd like to test it, but I can't always start over with a clean install.

Would you be so kind to make updates to the 20120803 build, like the #7-8-9 fixes?

It takes like a full day to put up all the apps and make their settings - and I don't have it recently. :(
[LG Optimus Black] atillaahun:
I see, I was also considering it, but does it recommended (by boype I mean)?

Just many people sayin' that don't dare to make a bug report unless I made a clean install. And I kind of agree.
[LG Optimus Black] boype:
Just go ahead and try :) and make a backup before of course.
[LG Optimus Black] noname7676:
gps fixed?

Plz tell me, is this fixed in the latest update?
[LG Optimus Black] atillaahun:
It seems it did. Though I didn't put it under serious testing, just started GNavi, planned a route, turned of the screen, and a few minutes later, the signal was still locked. Maybe if I don't forget I will test it in the bus, in the morning on the way to work, whether it will navigate me over the way with the screen off.
[LG Optimus Black] adxgrave:
Is there an option to disable the G-Key function? I've found that while mounted on my gps mount, the lid of the mount pressed on the button.

Not sure if it's the cause but while using sygic navigator the phone became warm and sometimes reboot itself.

Yeah, I think you delete the KEY 95 CAMERA WAKE_DROPPED line from /system/usr/keylayout/qwerty.kl
