Build 2

I finished Build 2 for the LG P990.

owain is currently busy and will port it to the P999 in the coming days, keep an eye on this thread.

I'm sorry for that process, in about a month the P999 ports will come directly from me, then you'll have the Builds at the same time the 2x has them.

But I will already post the Build 2 announcement here:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Even if the ROM was already pretty smooth I focused a lot on the overall smothness and snappiness!

If you want to update from Build 1 no full wipe is needed. Just do a dalvik wipe to let the dalvik cache rebuild.

Attention: If you want to keep your customized densities then make a backup of your pad.prop file with the "ParanoidAndroid Backup" app before flashing build 2!

New feature Spotlight:

V6 SuperCharger included

this improves the snappiness and makes multitasking a lot faster.

reduces the amount of launcher redrawing drastically.

together with the already included lagfree tune script and dalvik fixes it's buttery smooth now :)

It's fully preconfigured and gets the 100% supercharge score out of the box! (ADJ Entries, OOM Grouping fixes, Adjusted Minfree values)

(The services are not activated, as their impact isn't really noticable for us as they're mainly for Stock ROMs)

I copied the V6 script to the xbin folder. To configure it run it with Scripts manager or from Terminal with:

su
sh /system/xbin/V6*

All Credits to zeppelinrox - see his thread for a lot more details about the V6 SuperCharger

Scrolling Cache "Default disable"

The scrolling cache is automatically disabled if an app doesn't request it. The usual approach is that it is enabled if an app doesn't disable it.

in CM9 is an automatic cache disable function integrated which will disable the scrolling cache once you make a fast fling - but during that change it is a bit lagging in my opinion (maybe the missing LG binaries to blame, I don't know)

This is preconfigured. You don't have the option in the Settings to change it. If you want to remove that function delete the line "persist.sys.scrollingcache=3" from the build.prop.

Various bugfixes, most importantly:

Changed the preconfigured densities/layouts for Settings, SystemUI, Market and Camera to make them look better

Phone.apk replaced with one that properly scales (was already included in the hotfix for build 1)

Torch.apk added (was already included in the hotfix for build 1)

build

on the post it says build 2 but the file on mirrors the dates are 7/10/12 is that build 2? or we expecting build 2 for p999???:confused:
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
How about you read the post RIGHT ABOVE yours? :rolleyes:
[T-Mobile LG G2x] hypemanisus:
haha

fuuny i was probably too lazy to read all that bt how do we know when build 2 is out?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ayysir:
He will obviously announce it....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kepapas:
Build 2 please
[T-Mobile LG G2x] fortunejr:
I got it!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] n30wav3:
LOL :D .... rightly so... a sneak PEAK :p ... felt like i just watched the movie INCEPTION ...making me go back and read it again just for the beauty of it :D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] penguin5897:
I got it :beer:
[T-Mobile LG G2x] khanh1289:
How's everyone gps with the sneak peak ?

Edit: fixed by flashed gps config zip file tonyp has. Fyi for all others if you have gps problems.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jhmltn:
was your GPS working at all? Mine won't turn on. Doesn't flash on the status bar, nothing happens.

Also, my home button doesn't do anything. Wondering if I got a bad download?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] khanh1289:
Mine was flashing in status bar, just didn't lock. Don't mean to insult your intelligence but did you turn on gps? I did a full wipe then flash the new Rom then after found out gps was not locking, i download and flash the gps config file
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jhmltn:
Yep, checked all that... tried flashing with and without the gps config file... tried with Harsh's new kernel, and without... I was having other problems too -- my "Home" button was completely dead, didn't do anything. After messing with it for a while it went into a neverending bootloop. So I'm going back to build 11 until I have more time to play with it (i.e. re-download it)

With these new CM10 JB builds, I'm assuming we still need to flash the new_baseband file?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] wgrant:
If you're on the new baseband, yes, you'll need to flash it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] khanh1289:
I would definitely re download it. Once you re-flash, there are settings that let you disable hardware buttons so check that and also make sure you select internal gps in location services settings.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] wizshaw:
Ahhh... so 11 is just the kernel of the hackfest. Hmmmm maybe ill just wait because I planned to switch out the kernel with harshes anyways. Ill keep checking back though.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] n30wav3:
Hello tony.... I posted that on beene's thread. Same happening in Ur rom ... the RILJ is constantly keeping the device awake causing battery drain.... I don't know where to start a log cat for this issue so I am attaching the screenshots here... please check
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cricketAC:
You would be better off asking this wake locks question in better battery thread in Android apps forum.

Sent from my LG-P999
[T-Mobile LG G2x] n30wav3:
Are u sure? This is only happening to JB roms both Beene's and Tonyp on g2x ... so its must be specific to cm10 port of g2x. How would an app dev gonna answer that?

Also its not just about wakelock... this thing is keeping the device awake all the time immediately after u set it up the first time. Few other people experienced that too on beene's thread. Since both ROM using the same cm10 source and since beene's gonna be away. The only person who is closely related to cm10 right now is Tony p .. that's why I asked here
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
Yes, JB is (and will be until LG updates the ROM) and alpha build.

This is something benee would have to track down when someone provides proper radio logcats - but no promise that it will get solved.

So please - do not expect JB builds to be perfectly stable - they're called hackfest for a reason.

I'm using it as a daily driver, but my battery uptime has decreased significantly.

I still prefer to have JB on my phone in this hacky state - but that's something everyone has to decide on it's own.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] penguin5897:
I'll be honest, it seems pretty stable to me. Almost as stable as GB and way faster.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] djvoleur:
I'm with you there...JB rules! :)

I think I have an idea of the RILJ issue...I just need to test it after I'm off of work...and if it does work...I shall share with :) stoopid wifi calling...

@n30wav3...tonyp isn't the only one :p
[T-Mobile LG G2x] king870:
So jb hackfest can be flashed on top of this rom??
[T-Mobile LG G2x] n30wav3:
Hey.... where is ur rom?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] LEGEND94:
It can but not suggested, problems can derive from it. It best to start fresh!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
I will make a new jb build today or tomorrow.

I will release it publicly then and not hide it like the current build ;)

The question is if it needs an own thread or should just stay here in this one.

That depends on the numbers of people who would use it - keep in mind it shares all bugs of the hackfest rom.

I don't know what's the best way to decide that question, probably by you just answering this post. Or maybe thanking it, but that would look like I'm asking for thanks what sucks :D

So everything except PMs work, I'm already getting enough each day of that hehe
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cricketAC:
New dessert, new thread. Let the log fest begin!!!

Sent from my LG-P999
[T-Mobile LG G2x] BuddhaTeh1337:
sorry for my share of those PM's lol

i think you should open a thread for it. there will be different bugs related to the PA parts of the rom such as custom density settings. i have a small one with my notification bar that i havent reported yet ( GPS is higher on my priority list).

plus if everything gets jumbled up into the same thread, things will be much harder to find/organize. it'd probably just lead to more people PMing you.

just my $0.02

[T-Mobile LG G2x] huy_gm:
I think no need new thread, we will move to jb eventually, and this thread will be forgoten like cm7 threads in near future. Number of users in this thread will become insinificant but tony still has to maintain it. Just my personal idea.

Sr for my amateur English.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
Thanks, I will make a new thread based on your feedback :)

But on the current hackfest a couple people are still having problems with RILJ.

I'm in contact with djvoleur who is trying to fix it, let's hope his first idea (to revert the changes by pastime for the P999) turns out to work.

I'll still make a new PA JB build for you but like to wait a couple more days with a dedicated thread to avoid talk about that issue there :)

Well the new thread will be about JB. And when we'll get official CM10 support I won't maintain ICS (aka this thread) anymore and just close it, so I think this won't be a problem :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tootone:
Tony, I'd like to thank you again for all you do, all the devs for that matter. The time and effort you put into this phone amazes me.

+ 1,000
[T-Mobile LG G2x] n30wav3:
I dun think there is anything wrong with making a new thread for Jb build as it is already in such a stable state as far as the first (non sneak peak) build is concerned ;) .. also since the drivers are expected to be released in the near future :p making both roms completely stable. Both ics n jb deserve their own thread with their own complementary and issue resolving comments. Making much less clutter n confusion as the roms progresses

---------- Post added at 12:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:10 AM ----------

As u wait for djvoleur to solve the problem... can I request something in the rom :) .... actually this is the only thing stopping me from using this rom as daily driver.. as I watch TV shows a lot... the thing is owain used something either browser fix or overlay in his rom which allowed browser flash player streaming with video on ics... Mr. A adopted that on his genesis rom so he has flash video streaming too. As we won't be getting drivers in next month maybe... it is a perfect solution to at least one of the drivers related problems which should be adopted by all roms... I really want to use ur rom for paranoid settings but every time I wanna use flash I had to go back... IS IT POSSIBLE PLEASE IF U CAN TAKE A LOOK ON IT IN TILL THE RILJ IS SORTED OUT? :p :rolleyes:
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
Flash does work in the browser when you don't disable hwa in HwaSettings. That's the main reason I included the HwaSettings app - when you need flash in the browser you enable hwa - when you don't you can disable it to fix the ugly crash on rotation.

Or does the video streaming you're talking about need some special commit/setting?

Then please ask Mr A or owain what exactly they did and send me a link to the commit, then I'll gladly add it to the ROM as well. :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Slomo5793:
Hey tony, did you guys try messing with the settings in the testing menu? The *#*#4636#*#* menu?

Just a suggestion. I barely know anything about this. Lol

I woulda tried but I'm not sure what to do :p
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
I was just preparing to make a new build like promised - but github is down :(

gtg soon, so I guess the build is postponed.. but I'm not sure when I'll get time again this week. :rolleyes:

See here: https://status.github.com/ (Major service outage)

They had problems yesterday as well, but I had hoped that they would have solved them by today.

Edit: Note: Github is the page where the source code is hosted - and I need to sync to the new sources to fix a couple things.

I'm sure this has come up, but if it hasn't, check it out. Whenever I plug in my USB cable to my tower, i get a reboot, then loop between LG screens and Paranoid splash. Once I plug in, 5 seconds later it goes into boot loop.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] penninajx:
What kernel are you using?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] stevew84:
Ah, I reverted back to another nand, but probably one of the Morfic kernels. Can't say for sure though.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] partylikeaninjastar:
I had the same problem. There's the fix.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cricketAC:
Tony, you said in bld11 you are using JB hackfest kernel with some tweak from benee. But when i went in about phone. Its says romans (rmcc) kernel? Is that the same kernel benee has in his blind build?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sungersoo:
The letters on the numbers when trying to dial a number are too small. I tried changing some of the apps in settings> paranoid settings> dpi/mode

Is the hackfest PA taking the place of this ROM or are they seperate?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
Well they're separate. But I currently don't see a reason to update this build as there isn't happening much on the ICS front.

PA ICS development is totally abandoned and Cyanogenmod does only do a couple security fixes but won't include new features anymore.

In 3 days I'm going on holiday for a week - if LG won't have made their freaking update until then I'm planning to do another ICS build.

If this does happen then build12 will feature an AROMA installer with a couple install options :)

I'm not sure what else will be changed though.

Here's the CM9 changelog: http://changelog.bbqdroid.org/#p999/cm9/next

As you can see there's nothing happening anymore - and the last commits which were made doesn't affect our phone.

But if you have feature requests make sure to post them until I'm back and I will have a look what to include.

The best chance for implementation are always source commits, as I can merge them pretty easy.

You can find new things for example here: http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#/q/branch:ics+status:open,n,z or here: http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#/q/branch:ics+status:abandoned,n,z at the official CM gerrit.

I cant hear any of my calls at all after i flashed this rom and the new baseband fix i can make a call and receive:confused: one but i cant hear anything at all.. any idea what i can do to fix this???
[T-Mobile LG G2x] BuddhaTeh1337:
if you are on the old baseband, this would happen. go >home>menu>settings> phone info and look for where it says baseband check and see if you are running the march baseband or july.

You are most likely on the New Baseband. Flash the new_baseband.zip in the second post under downloads and you'll get in call audio.

Thanks for the rom. Best yet, but the only problem I have is the gps, I don't mind that is doesn't lock the fastest but what happen to me is that is goes completely white. The map is gone. I don't know if anyone else got this problem too?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
As I'm back from my vacation I will make a build 12 soon. Right after build 5 CM10 PA.

It will contain the USSD fix and I learned a couple things while working on the performance aspects of JB which I'll try to include in ICS as well.

Yes :)

This is not the ROMs fault. It happens on all CM9/10 ROMs and is caused by the missing hardware accelleration.

Only thing you can do is close and reopen it. It never happened on navigation for me, only when scrolling and zooming around within the map so I can live with it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kvnd:
Weird mine goes blank as I am driving and not touching anything. Should I try flashing it again or use some kind of kernel?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
I don't really think that would help - but it's worth a try and you could still go back to your backup if it doesn't work.

As I don't use the navigation of maps very often I maybe just hadn't noticed it - although at the last 4hour drive everything worked like it should.

Disable hwa in hwasettings for Maps. This won't fix it, but maybe it helps.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kvnd:
I'll try that. Thanks, you're awesome. Looking forward to build 12.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
As promised I uploaded build 12.

Note that this build is untested by me - it's too late to factory reset and go back to ICS at the moment - I really need to go to sleep (yes, sorry - I admit it, I do sleep as well :o)

So please provide feedback if everything works!

Changelog:

USSD fix

memfree values baked into the framework (instead of the init.d script)

back to arcee's kernel. hackfest one will be provided via a separate flashable zip within the coming days.

some small performance improvements

synced to the latest CM9.1 sources

As always: If you appreciate my work press thanks, vote this thread 5 stars, recommend this ROM to your grandmother and consider a donation.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
Quick status update: Build12 will most likely be the last PA ICS version.

As SU660 ICS has been officially released we hopefully should get official CM10 soon.

Which means fully working PA CM10 builds! Hooooraayyy!

Don't worry, as far as I know you p999 guys will get official CM10 as well, even if T-Mobile and LG are both scumbags for dropping support for you.

CM9 is pretty dead anyways, there isn't anything happening at the source.

I won't delete the source for a while though, so if there is an important security bugfix (like the USSD one recently) and someone still wants to use this ROM (really?) I can make another build.

It's been a fun ride, thank you all for your great participation in this thread, I enjoyed talking & discussing with you here.

See you on the CM10 thread soon :)

Hi, just curious, how smooth/stable is this comparing to PA hackfest build 5?

I am currently using build 5 atm, but if this is more stable i am probably gonna try it out.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cricketAC:
Stable, no. PA.bld5 is stable than this. But battery wise this takes the cake.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] hhwong:
ahh i see, guess i am sticking with the hackfest for now then

honestly, the battery drain isnt that bad, if you are entering area where you get weak or no signal simply enter airplane mode.

and turning wifi off when ur not using it, my battery can last a whole day literally from 8an to 11pm and still have about 35% left.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cricketAC:
Is that with an extended battery on 2g network? Mine tops at 9 hrs with 3g(don't have 2g for my carrier) and stock battery.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] hhwong:
nope, stock battery and 3g entire time, just use airplane mode when you have no signal, the battery drain is horrible if you have weak or no signal but if you have full 5 bars or at least 4, the battery drain is quite alright, wifi as well, just turn it off after ur done with it.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] OPTheory:
E/Trace (7337): error opening trace file: No such file or directory (2)
W/Genie (10033): no network location provider, can't get a location

I seem to be having issues with Maps and the News and Weather App being able to find a location. It appears my Location services is completely broken. If I go into Maps, and press the compass button at the top right (this should take you to your location) it says "Please enable a My Location source in system settings."

If I go into Settings > Location Services...

Google location services and Location & Google Search are both checked. GPS satellites is not checked. GPS source is set to Internal GPS.

Any ideas what I should do about this? I'm getting a lot of errors in general on my logcat if I filter it to Warning and above with

adb logcat *:w

I'm also getting a very poor data connection. Not a poor signal per se. Just no data. This is after the T Mobile apk was applied.
