Another convert from EB ASOP. Just switched this morning. This a great ROM. I have no need for the tablet UI, but can see the potential. Very smooth and fast. This will be my new daily driver. Great job!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
Okay, I want to try something.

Are here some users of this ROM who'd like to contribute to this thread?

I'm specifically thinking about the following things:

a FAQ consisting of all these little questions like "Statusbar is gone". this would mean someone need to digg through this thread and grab the FAQ-relevant stuff

some screenshots/designs which show (off) the ParanoidAndroid features to replace the ones in post 3

or are here even videojunkies who'd like to do a video review? Somethink like this, only with the 2x (and a little better prepared hehe).

My time is limited these days and I'd rather focus on improving the ROM further instead of maintaining the thread.

If there's no one then I'll do it myself at some point in the future.

Edit: For the G2x I do have a position open as "porting relationship senior vice president" or something like that :D

So.. if anyone would be interested in learning new stuff and porting the ROM from the O2x to the G2x (with fulltime advice from me) that would be great.

If not I'll do it myself, no biggie.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] maxesxp:
Would be cool. I'm getting into Android app development and it wouldn't hurt to learn about porting from o2x to g2x.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] noahk423:
I'd like to contribute somehow. I haven't used this rom in a while(been on Gb) but I could helpout some,let me know if there's still a possibility for me.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] geo0889:
My camera is a little slow whenever I move it around it takes a while to follow my movements... have it in default mode... did a full wipe...

Edit: I found it only does it in default phone mode when I set the dpi to that... when I switched it back to the tablet mode it worked normally but can't see the settings. I can live with it...lol...love the rom that much...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
Yes, of course :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bhowanidin:
Best kernel (other than stock) that you guys are flashing with the new build?

And any way I can get rid of the Android Reaper splash image?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] noahk423:
Ics kernels are: Harsh's(comes with it), Jarvis kernel, which I find great because video doesn't lag with this kernel, faux123, and morfic(can only flash with non-touch recovery). And the reaper, owain's roms have that, it replaces the second LG logo, it has something to do with the boot(obviously), but I'm not exactly sure how to change that.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] uncochu:
Harshs 1907 that is already cooked in. Ran it on build 2 and that thing was buttery. Dont feel much of a difference on build 4 for performance.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bhowanidin:
Thanks
[T-Mobile LG G2x] hypemanisus:
Loved the rom by I'm a data using person with data drops at times will have to wait till it's fixed them be back. Good work Tony.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
I really need a Logcat of that or can't help you at all.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] themrjason:
If I remember tomorrow, I will get you a logcat of data dropping when I receive a call, make a call, and when the gps turns on.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kodabmx:
Turn off GPS and data won't drop anymore...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] hypemanisus:
it's off i never use gps on phone
[T-Mobile LG G2x] themrjason:
Here is a logcat of data dropping.

Here are the order of events:

Started alogcat

Went to home screen

Opened App drawer

Started GPS Test

Data Drop

Data Restored

Received Phone Call

Data Drop

Data Restored

Ended Call

Data Drop

Data Restore

Data isn't dropping for me when I am the one making the phone call though.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
Okay, something strange is going on with GPS and radio there. I don't really understand why both should be related.. anyways:

I do have an idea. For that I need a "framework.jar" from a clean ICS build for the G2x (clean means pretty much no customization or cherrypicking).

I can't make a build from source currently so someone of you has to get me one. Is here anyone building their own KANGs (or knows someone who does) and can send me that file?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phatpaw:
Love the smoothness of the ROM. Excellent work.

The phone needs the ability to MUTE. Mute doesn't actually do anything at the moment.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kodabmx:
Here's the one from EB... They have the data drop fixed and it's pretty much a stock aosp build

http://bayfiles.com/file/idoz/GGFtxd/framework.jar
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
Indeed. Added that to the known bugs. Will check it out soon.

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

Attention:

noahk423 has created a great FAQ / Q&A for the ParanoidAndroid ROM.

It's now located in Post 5 of this Thread.

Please check it out and make sure to leave noahk423 a Thanks for his work.

Weird noise when calling

Hello,

I am experiencing plain noise when I try to call or I receive a call. I am attaching a logcat file. Any hints or tips appreciated.

*FULL WIPE on phone was done before install, flashed ROM, hybrid GAPPS, then fixed permissions.

Thanks guys
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kodabmx:
Check the OP - You're most likely using the new baseband without flashing the baseband fix
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
This sounds like a baseband problem. I have no ideas of the G2x basebands, please refer to the proper sections at this forum (or consult the Q&A post 5 which has a section for basebands).

If you have the "new baseband" (whatever this is hehe) please flash the files for that. Links are in the OP.

Edit:

@kodabmx: damn you've beaten me!

@candleworth7808: I beat you!

Three answers within 2 minutes, very nice :D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] candleworth7808:
sounds like baseband issue. which are you using? did you mean to write "plain" noise? may need to flash baseband fix. more info can be found in the Q&A section (post 5).

New post design in the OP is up!

I'm Currently planning build 5.

It's gonna be JeallyBean flavoured*, will be based on a new CM build and contain a couple bugfixes.

But I have to wait for the answer from the EB-Team on what's causing the data drops and how they fixed it.

As I don't own a G2x myself I can't debug it.

*flavoured != based on

[T-Mobile LG G2x] xeroy:
Wow, this is an amazing ROM. Good work! Most things work perfectly fine and everything is so fluid thanks to Harsh's kernel. I only have one complaint, and that's the battery life when the phone is being used; 5 minutes of playing a light game eats 10% of the battery. However, when the phone is idle, say for about 12 hours, only 20% is used, which is great! Once again, good work!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cricketAC:
Yeah that ROM is still in the pipelines where you use the phone and it hardly makes a dent on the battery front. lol

[T-Mobile LG G2x] prettyboy85712:
Good luck with that. They're closed source.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tahahawa:
But they are willing to help developers via PM only.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
@prettyboy85712: I do have a great experience with them, they were always really helpfull. Waiting for an answer currently.

Will hold build 5 for the G2x until I get it.

But I have great news for build 5:

Finally the two last bugs which bothered me are solved.

Debugging those took me countless hours and hours and hours!

For the ones interested:

The first one were the "black vertical lines" (linedividers) which you may have noticed, for example in the SMS app. They should have been grey.

I was trying to narrow it down almost each day after build 4 was released lol

I thought the error would be in the framework and had tested at least 50 new compiled framework files while trying to solve it, but it always failed.

Then I finally found out that it was a problem in the /lib folder. Sent it of to pastime who found the conflicting commit. Build 5 will be based on pastimes new Cyanogenmod KANG.

The second problem was discovered a couple days ago in the P999 forum: The muting button in calls wasn't working.

I finally pinned it down to a wrong value inside the phone.apk.

The following value was inside a XML file: <bool name="send_mic_mute_to_AudioManager">false</bool> which has to be "true" instead of "false". Who would set that to false anyway -.-

Long story short: Want to keep me happy, motivated and drink more alcohol, hit this link :cool: :good:

Currently working on polishing and testing build 5 (I like the Jellybean flavours hehe)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] rosevilletoyota:
Anyone figure out a bluetooth fix yet for the new baseband??? thanks:cool:
[T-Mobile LG G2x] iDreamless531:
I think one of them responded to you over on there thread
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
Yes we're on it. Thanks for the notice anyways.

I do have a first idea from what b0xer wrote me, it's seems like I was on the right direction.

I modified the framework file a little based on the one kodabmx sent me.

Could someone who suffers from these data drops please try this file out, it goes into /system/framework:

https://dl.dropbox.com/u/2478159/temp/framework.jar

Either use a file explorer like root explorer, create a flashable zip or use adb push.

adb remount
adb push framework.jar /system/framework
adb reboot

Navigate to the folder you stored the framework.jar ofc. You can also provide a path like C:/framework.jar

Btw: Here are a couple Screenshots for the soon to come build 5: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/kk3q58ccr0elh2d/vCOWqsJiCA

Fixed black vertical lines (they are now grey like they should)

Modded the Trebuchet launcher for a couple bugfixes

Various small changes, fixes and improvements

Synced to the latest CM source

Screenshots: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/kk3q58ccr0elh2d/vCOWqsJiCA

I will release build 5 for the P990 tomorrow.

I might hold the P999 build back 1-2 days here for testing the data drops. Awaiting an email reply from b0xer.

* note that flavoured cherry candy does taste like cherries, but there are no cherries inside ;)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mister Hat:
I'd love to have the statusbar blue line light up when you touch it like in JB. That'd be sweet. None of the cm9 themes do it though.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] iDreamless531:
Does it have JB transitions like Owains?? Maybe JB keyboard? The predictions are sick on CM10
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
Yes it has. They're fantastic! :good:

Regarding the Jellybean keyboard:

I did consider to include a port but decided to leave it out.

The most stable one is at the Playstore for free, just go ahead and download it.

The predictions are almost Swiftkey-like, well done Google.

JB Keyboard:

[T-Mobile LG G2x] Slomo5793:
Is anyone else having battery trouble?

My battery has been running out pretty quickly on this rom and I don't even use too much data
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
Build 5 is ready and released for the P990.

I can port it to the P999 if you want, or shall i wait and try to investigate the data drops first?

I'm not sure if everyone here is suffering from the Data Drops or just a couple people?

And do the people who suffer from datadrops have this problems with owains #80 as well?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kepapas:
Just drop the link I don't mind rebooting when data drops:D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cricketAC:
Yes and Yes. Its alright, just post the build already. You can fix the drops later on in 6th or 7th build.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] xShadoWxDrifTx:
Wow..

So I started running into problems on Owains Build78, it started lagging and really locking up my phone to the point that apps wouldn't work and my phone wouldn't turn on after the screen went off.

Ran fix permissions several times and no luck, but enough blabbering on about that build failing on me later, it worked fine for a month+ but... yeah.

Then I did a taboo..

I flashed Build 4 of Paranoid droid, and after all the suspense..!

It was perfect.. so far

Only has been one day, but the speed.. I have to admit it is at least 2.5 times than what I was using before.

I don't know how you did it, but this thing truly is buttery smooth and lag free, I'm amazed, props to you dev.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
Okay, build 5 is uploading. Should be up in about half an hour, I'll announce it then again.

This is the first time I'll port it from the P990 to the P999 myself (owain did it before for you guys). As I don't have any experience with that you have to report if everything is working (boot, wifi etc.). Harshs kernel is included, as always.

And just to make sure: You do suffer from data drops at all ICS ROMs except at EB, is that correct?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] noahk423:
You are correct my friend, every single time GPS is on and using mms and also play store.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Bladedwings:
The most prominent data issue is when data stops working all of a sudden and is only fixable with a reboot. The data icon is there, everything is enabled, but data just doesn't work. If this is the data drop you're referring to, then it's been the most prominent with this ROM. Every other ROM, aside from Eaglesblood, has had a similar problem, but less frequently.

If you're referring to how data temporarily disconnects when making a call, then I don't know. I haven't paid enough attention to confidently say no other ROM has it, although this is the only ROM I've noticed it on.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
Build 5

Build 5 features:

You wan't even more Jellybean features?:

I created a new Gapps package with Google Now included!

This is a ported version of Google Now. More information can be found here.

Not working:

Can't exit the app using the back button on the Google Now 'Cards' screen

Full Jelly Bean voice search in the app.

To use the voice search there's the app "Voice search for Google Now" included.

Open it by longpressing the Searchbutton, with the persistant search bar or add the included searchbar widget to your homescreen

You can install a ported Jellybean keyboard with the new predictions engine

The predictions are almost Swiftkey-like, well done Google.

It tried to use the wifi tethering on build 4 with my Nexus 7, and while it worked "better" than on previous builds, it still wouldn't connect. On the old builds, it wouldn't even start the android AP process. Now, it seems to start up on the phone just fine, and my Nexus 7 sees the network, but it can never get a connection established.

I know a logcat would have been helpful, but I was in a position that I needed the tethering to work right away, so I had to flash a new rom for the time being.
