If you read in the op of the harsh kernel thread it says that the reboots only work a percentage of the time! Its not guaranteed to work eveytime. Its random and requires a battery pull.

Calling is working fine and most things are working well in this build, however, I can't get my voicemail to work, which is probably wind's fault. :/
[T-Mobile LG G2x] MWBehr:
Hmm....well I always do a full wipe, so not sure. I'll try again with build 5 when I wake up and see how it goes. Will definitely get a logcat this time if I have issues.

Use Youmail Visual Voicemail. ;)

You could reboot using terminal that's what I do.. I know its a pain but it works every time... or a hard reboot holding the power and up volume button together until the phone reboots to the lg screen

[Solved] APN dropping randomly

So I was not going to bug you Tony until I figured it out, but I think I resolved my APN settings disappearing, or taking an extremely long time sometimes to show up.

I edited the /system/etc/apns-conf.xml file and removed everything that I concluded was not in my country (or carriers I just hated, lol). I now have only T-Mobile US and other US carrier APNs in that list. It is now about 1/10 the size. When I reboot, the data connects almost instantly and after several days have not had the APN disappear once.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
That's great, I hope noah adds that to his great FAQ (which you guys should totally give a couple thanks votes!!).

Here's the direct link: Q&A by noah
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tootone:
is there another mirror for build 5? I am having problems with this one.

I keep getting getting to about 60mb and the download will complete obviously not even close to done. however my connection is insanely fast stable. so it must be the mirror.

*edit*

After my 4th try it worked, or at least appears to have worked!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
Okay, I created a mirror at http://tonyp.hopto.org, just in case someone else has problems with dev-host.

Please try a kernel change/update.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] casemandan:
good build all around and especially as far as all the settings to played around with are concerned.... AWESOME!

i get black screen of death a couple times a day after making phone calls.

fixing permission doesn't seem to help

ROM feels a bit sluggish which i understand since were missing hardware acceleration

this definitely has a future

GPS is slow to acquire full lock

but other than that its a solid alternative to other ICS.

the more the better i say

goddamn lg for being so slow to realease ics for optimus... we need the drivers!!!!:crying:

TONYP

KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK MY MAN!!!! I highly appreciate it.

I finally decided to give this ROM a shot... It's beautiful... and it makes the G2x look even sexier while running this ROM. It's a shame that the G2x/O2x doesn't have official ICS yet, it's a beautiful device... Looks better than most devices on the market right now.

I have a new testfix ready for the data drops issues, when data gets lost and won't return.

Download: http://d-h.st/YbC

It's a flashable zip, please install it and report feedback.

Edit: wipe cache + dalvik!

If I understand this correct that's another issue than the "gps data drop"?

I might need someone who can explain me these issues which occur for some people at the G2x in a little more detail.

Data still drops, tried to send myself a pic message data dropped out instantly

Does it return or stay gone? Is that the GPS bug? Please be more specific, I'm trying to debug something for a phone I don't own :D

Oh and wipe cache + dalvik after flashing the new file please.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cricketAC:
When I was using your ROM, data would come and go, doing it multiple times at a time. Especially while using GPS but not just specific to it.

Sent from my LG-P999
[T-Mobile LG G2x] xBkKx:
Its acts the same way it does on other ICS ROMs (excluding EBs), the data will drop instantly then it will kick back in after a few seconds. It always happens (at least for me) when I attempt to use anything GPS related, using the app GasBuddy and doing the map view even with actual GPS disabled the data drops, opening Google Maps and enabling GPS data will drop, trying to send MMS, and sometimes when loading the Playstore
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
Okay, thanks. The fix from me a couple posts above isn't against that then, it should fix the problem that data sometimes gets dropped and won't return until you reboot - this was reported here as well.

Will ask the EB team about the GPS stuff as well :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mikew29:
Tried the fix and it looks to have fixed the data drop I experience going from WiFi to cell data. Data still dropped, but comeback quickly.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
Ah great then it works :)

You mind share the file? It will save a lot of editing time.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jhmltn:
Data drop fix

Tony,

Whatever you did in that data drop fix, it definitely seems to have "affected" the GPS data drop.

Before, when I would turn on GPS, I would immediately lose data, and it would take 5-10 seconds to come back.

Now, after flashing your fix -- turn on GPS; lose data immediately, but only for about 0.5 seconds. HSPA symbol comes back right away. It stays for 1-2 seconds; and then I lose data again. It seems to take 1-3 seconds for it to come back the 2nd time, and then all is good.

Not sure what that means, or what is going on during those drops, but it at least suggests that you're in the ballpark....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cyansky_1:
PM me if you want the optimized file, it is US/Canada specific though for T-Mobile/Windmobile only. I would like some more people to test it and tell me how it affects their data.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cyansky_1:
This should be a result of the APN issue. Let me know if my APN file I sent you resolved this.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] prettyboy85712:
PM sent
[T-Mobile LG G2x] geo0889:
The issue with data not coming back on after switching from wifi seems to be fixed I still the data drop from GPS turning on and going into play store but it takes a lot less time for data to return than before I flashed the fix..
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mikew29:
I know there are more important things to get working properly, but if possible , could you add the ability to center the clock in the notification bar? And maybe custom carrier text?

Love the ROM and thanks for supporting the p999.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
There's one issue with a wrongly scaled window when you're getting an incoming call.

Is the ROM ready for the 2012 new baseband?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jhmltn:
ROM seems awesome -- so far it is working great. Very smooth.

Only problem so far? I can't actually get into the Paranoid Settings. Settings FCs if I try to open it. The rest of Settings menus work fine.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
Full wipe yes/no?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ayysir:
Shall try this in a few. Glad g2x still have life. I want it to be a next hd2
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jhmltn:
Yes -- full wipe.

Edit: Hmm. Cleared data for "Settings" and now it works.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] djvoleur:
Careful with what you backup/restore in TB :p
[T-Mobile LG G2x] owain94:
No you need to flash the new baseband zip file after the ROM I will add a backup file for it so you won't have to flash it all the time

Ok i just did works great, a few lags du.

No problem its good.

Ask Facebook to update their app to use proper API's instead of their own syncing way that is been killed in ics

You can use haxsync for proper syncing Facebook contacts
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
Not working because Google unliked Facebook. Use apps like HaxSync.

aaaargh owain, you beat me because I answered both question at one time! :D

Just installed it from the market, everything working perfectly fine for me.

Properly wiped? And don't restore apps like YouTube (and system apps) via TitaniumBackup.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ayysir:
Any way to get hot boot in power menu?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
I will add it to my "maybe" list for the next build. The last option in the reboot menu is pretty much useless anyways :D

For now there are tons of apps which should accomplish that, just search for "hot reboot".
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
I do really like both features as well.

Custom carrier text might come (but not anytime soon).

The center clock patch doesn't work well with ParanoidAndroid in ICS (because of the dpi changing capabilities).

A problem here is that ParanoidAndroid is still closed source. This makes implementing it way more difficult than just applying the commits at the source level.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] l0lcats:
I flashed to this ROM, build 5, today after having used EB 4.0.4. Before using the latest EB ICS ROM I updated to the March 2012 baseband and have had no issues. I used the P999, T-Mobile and after flashing this ROM I needed to flash this baseband fix as I was getting the odd feedback when making/receiving calls. On that note I really don't believe it's accurate to say that this ROM supports the new baseband. If that were *truly* the case the fix wouldn't be necessary.

Otherwise PA build 5 seems to be holding up a lot better than EB 4.0.4. Definitely faster, no lag, reboot options work. I notice that in Portrait the tablet ui gmail will crash when opening an email but if it loads in landscape it's fine so no big.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
I don't see any problem there. Especially as the Question is phrased "What baseband can I use this on?", and the answer is "any", which is totally true.

Does Android support flash? Yes, when you install the Flashplayer.

Does this ROM support the new baseband? Yes, when you install the new baseband fix.

Does Android support iOS apps? No.

Thanks again Noah for maintaining this great FAQ!

Just wanted to say thanks for the rom and the browser fix. I am on the new baseband and this was my first experiment with an ICS Rom. I had absolutely No problems at all getting both the Rom and stock browser working. Owain's baseband fix works great too. Although it won't be my daily driver w/o Nvidia's drivers I am truly impressed by how smooth and stable things are. Thanks to Harsh's newest kernel w/ overclock I can smoothly play my kid's movies using just software decoding.

I thought the install instructions were clear and thorough.

By the way, I created a Userthread.

I got a couple PM's from people who are not allowed to reply in the dev thread yet and asked me about it.

It's located here: [ROM][CM9] ParanoidAndroid [Userthread]

You don't have posting restrictions there, feel free to ask and talk about any question you'd like, I don't even mind slight offtopic there.

Bugreports, Feedback, dev-related questions etc. are as always welcome in this thread of course.

Most people who posted here can just continue in doing so, I only created the new thread as additional service for users who wanted it.

But maybe in doing so this thread will become a little more development related which wouldn't harm.

The thread is at the P990 / 2x section.

That shouldn't be a problem as problems like the GPS bug do belong into this (dev) thread anyways.

By having a combined thread for the P990 and P999 there are more possible readers who can help each other out.

I'm subscribed to that topic as well of course.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Euzhan:
Great idea.

Btw, When I close the screan and I open it. I have more ram. I do not know if it has to do with the cache scrolling. I really want to know. I feel that the memory is purged when the screen closes. It happens to me when I use the browser.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
Something great is coming in build #6 for you guys!

You'll get the possibility to turn of the 2D hardware accelleration for individual apps.

There are two reasons to do so:

As it's more or less broken on our phone it causes a couple problems. Have you noticed how the facebook crashes when tilting? You can easily fix that one by simply disabling the hardware accelleration! :)

To save RAM and battery

This will solve a couple bugs for malfunctioning apps. Not all though, Chrome for example isn't usable at all without hardware accelleration. (FYI: I already tried to apply the same fix to it which I did to the Browser.apk with individual hardware accelleration for different UI elements, but it doesn't work. Chrome relies too hard on something that's broken for us).

If you want to learn more about hardware accelleration, I quoted you an article here.

If that's too long for you just read the red highlighted parts ;)

I haven't yet tested if we get the same memory overhead mentioned below. It's possible that we don't have this at the 2x because we don't have the real 2D real hardware accelleration.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sungersoo:
I dont know if this is a common problem or not but at times when I use apps such as google play maps and facebook, the internet cuts off. Is it from my kernel or dpi?

Beginning with build #6 I will change the main download place from Dev-Host to goo.im

Thanks to both for offering me their great premium accounts for free!

Goo.im is a lot more flexible (SSH access etc.) and I can offer my ROM automatically with the GooManager.

No need to use that, you can download and flash as usual. But as it's really easy to set up I thought I will just offer it as well :)

Fixes Facebook rotation for example.

After installing a new app the database sometimes doesnt update, just clear data of hwasettings and open it again to force a db rebuild.

Data drop fix from #05 testfix1 included due to the great feedback.

Thanks to the EB-Team for kindly sharing it to me. (Credits will get filled tomorrow).

Incoming call screen alignment fixed

Main download site changed to goo.im: http://goo.im/devs/tonyp

Build is up!

Thanks to goo.im for their free account!

Soon it should be listed at the GooManager as well.

It requires twrp instead of cwm though.

I'm using it for a day and absolutely love it - finally a working touch recovery and no more volume key malhandling.

I can't even open the zip on my computer, it looks like the file didn't upload properly. The md5 sum is different then what tonyp originally posted also.

My phone can't open the zip either, thru a file explorer I mean. Bummer

Edit: the file for the P999 is 10mb smaller then the p990. This could be the problem. There's also been 67 downloads. Has anybody been successful at getting this installed?

Same thing happened to me...wasted 20 minutes using nullifier to get ready to flash and then got the same error. Thought it was a bad download cuz of my phone so tried downloading from a different phone and still same thing happened. Now back on build 5.

Of course not. You can flash it as usual with cwm.

Only for the GooManager you need to use twrp, but no one needs to do that.

Sorry for the bad upload, apperantly my router decided to flip some bits. I will re upload it ASAP!

Build 6

Data Drop fix is included due to the very positive feedback.

Thanks to the EB-Team for kindly sharing it with me.

I modded the Phone.apk again, this fixes the buttons in incoming calls.

They were too close together which was related due to the call mute fix I did before.

Main download site changed to goo.im: http://goo.im/devs/tonyp

Thanks to goo.im for their free account!

From now on you can download the ROM with the GooManager app, too!

It's a great app, even supports update notifications if you're a fan of this.

It includes the same features as ROMManager premium, but for them to use you need to use twrp as recovery instead of cwm.

I'm using it for a couple days and really like it, touch navigation is so a lot easier.

But choose whichever you prefer, CWM or TWPR.

Prepared the ROM for the HWASettings app.

With that you can disable the hardware accelleration for individual apps - which fixes issues like Facebook crash on rotation and might(?) save battery and RAM.

The app is already included but not working yet, please await the soon to come build #7

Synced to the latest CM source.
