Excellent work.. The enter button now work again..

One more issue if you could fix would be great... When Swiftkey get enable.. and user click alt or shift, it don't go back to normal until click on touch the screen.. Don't happen on another keyboard except Swiftkey... don't know why..

+1 Got mine a few months ago and haven't looked back. But it's good to see the progress in C800 development. CM9 is way ahead of GB, and JB isn't that much better than ICS. Also good to see the stock 2.3.6 update in the other thread, so people can unbrick etc. If it's any consolation, the C800 has better reception than the Galaxy Nexus, and also louder sound.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
Make CM9 as fast as Stock rooted (and de-bloated) ;)

Here's how to make CM9 FAST!

*caveat: I am a (unique?) user in that I value speed and simplicity. I believe the reason I can get my phone so fast is because...

​

I have no widgets running

No shortcuts on desktop (just 5 in dock)

1 homescreen

A very limited # of constantly running apps (Google Voice, Dropbox, Google Services, and Thumb Keyboard)

That being said, I like the ability to run the latest and greatest (for our phone) and just like messing around with this stuff in general. This is my daily driver and I don't have any issues that I can think of now (running latest CWM and experimental CM9).

MAKE A BACKUP!

Install CM9

Flash Gapps

Install V6 Supercharger, set the ram minifrees to 512 MB unleaded

Remove Trebuchet and Apollo

Install Nova launcher

Install Thumb Keyboard, set height to 75%

Remove all but one homescreen

Install Google Now for offline voice

Turn off all animations (in Nova and Settings > Developer Options > Window and Transition Animation scale)

Settings > Performance, set max speed to 1200, and governor to interactive. Set on boot once you mess around a bit and make sure your phone can handle it (you can always reflash the rom to get the settings back if you mess up).

Profit?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] strumcat:
Just wanted to say that I dug up my C800, installed the latest CWM, installed the stock 2.3.6 ROM just to make a pure stock nandroid, then installed the experimental build of CM9, which is working great.

I decided to set up the C800 without a SIM card as a local file/media server via wifi hotspot. That will make it easy to offload files from my gnex via wifi when storage gets low (no sdcard in gnex). FTPDroidPro works great. I'll try to find a decent streaming server app for the media.

CM9 really put some new life into the C800, and it's a fun toy again. To everybody who made it happen, thank you.

Hi. Just got a stock LG C800. My main desktop is Ubuntu Linux. If I just install adb and fastboot, then boot the C800 into fastboot and do:

fastboot flash recovery cwm-6.0.1.2-lgc800-chui101.img

can I then flash CM9? or do i need to "root" the C800? i don't know what "rooting" it means? Is it the same as replacing the stock recovery image with the clockworkmod one (as I showed above) or are there more steps?

Any help is appreciated.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] gagdude:
You have to root before you do anything! Its basically giving you full control of your phone, like accessing system level files. If you don't know what you're doing, don't do it! Research first!

But, simplest way to root is Unlock Root. Install phone drivers, connect phone, and run Unlock Root. (Available at www.unlockroot.com)

EDIT: there's also Superoneclick but for me it never worked, so I ditched it
[Miscellaneous Android Development] strumcat:
Before you can flash anything onto your phone you have to unlock the bootloader. Normally, unlocking the bootloader wipes your phone, including your sdcard, so you have to be very careful and make sure you have everything backed up first.

The usual command for unlocking the bootloader is "adb oem unlock" but it doesn't always work. So there are various programs floating around that unlock the bootloader for you by circumventing any preventive measures.

They also usually install a su binary in /bin or /xbin, and an app like Superuser.apk that controls access to su. That's what they mean by "rooting", but that's just icing on the cake and isn't a prerequisite to installing ClockWorkMod and flashing ROMs.

I used a program called SuperOneClick 2.3.3 on a Windows box to unlock and root my C800. UnlockRoot is another Windows program to do the same thing, as mentioned, but I haven't used that one.

Anyway, once the bootloader is unlocked, then you can use the command you mentioned to flash CWM. Once CWM is installed, you're in command of your phone and can put anything on it you want.

Always do a nandroid backup first, though.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] gagdude:
Wait... the LG Mytouch has a locked bootloader?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] vxbinaca:
No.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ninsei:
thanks folks. so there is a separation between filesystem rooting and unlocking the bootloader. what would happen if i tried to install cwm and the bootloader was locked?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] strumcat:
Actually I never really checked. Just assumed it did.

OK, my bad on that one.

---------- Post added at 12:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:38 PM ----------

Looks like you don't have to worry about it. It's apparently unlocked to begin with.

D/ShaderProgram(10084): couldn't load the vertex shader!

^ that's the issue, and it seems to only happen on select msm7x30 devices. I've been meaning to try the One V adreno libs but haven't had time lately.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] RennyC:
Hopefully better Andreno drivers will stop some of the 3D rendering issues I've encountered, Temple Run seems to be a good test for it. I'm gonna try again today with the latest nightly and see if anythings changes. I also figured it may have been something I may have done such as installing Chainfire3D.

Any idea on multi-touch issues though? Apparently several developers have already fixed it such as SebastianFM (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1424345)

I'll post details and if you wish logs :) I want to see this firmware run well.

Update: Did a fresh install, no chainfire installed at all as I read it doesn't support 3.0+ Android (Whoops!). No more glitchy graphics in Temple Run, input delay is unfortunately there.

Ran the Multitouch Visual Test and the result is definitely a glitched multi-touch driver, if I keep my thumb down on the screen and tap with another then it forgets that I'm still

holding my thumb down on the screen. Worked flawlessly on Gingerbread LG stock ROM.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y1SKSbWAbtc - I made this video to show the glitch in action.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] spidro:
Hey is there a way to put a tracphone simcard in my lgc800 and get it working?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] vxbinaca:
No because they use this proprietary firmware in the ROM to work on the network, plus their service sucks anyway and they're a ripoff.

With the old Nokia phones though, people would buy the TracPhone ones and reflash them with OEM nokia firmware and then sell them to emerging markets as cheap handsets. It's part of the reason carriers moved away from them because the pay-go phones are partially subsidized and it was killing the carriers. Now they have these wonky Samsung/LG phones and other makers who aren't as ubiquitous and you can't use internets to get stock firmware out of, which kills the resale market for these devices.

It's rumored some of these phones ended up as the radio part of radio detonates for IED's in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Thanks for the great guide! What music player do you use? Apollo was a terrible music player IMO (gets album art mixed up, slow, bulky, etc).

How is the latest nightly (9/16/2012) ? I've been using the latest one that Chui101 released.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
I bought poweramp a bit ago. Still my preferred player. Latest is great!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] vxbinaca:
9/16 nightly:

- Still getting crashes on screen on/off

- Got ALT locking a few times, but have yet to experience shift locking.

- Camera flash gone again.

Edit:

- Still getting blank posts/emails.

But it seems even faster, more stable. I'm getting way less FC's.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
Could you grab a logcat for any of the above when they happen?

Either use alogcat and pastebin, or grab it from adb.

If we can help chui speed this up, maybe we can see some progress!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
I'm considering re-flashing in a couple of builds, just to wait for performance and stability improvements. Am I still the only one who suffered a phone that will not turn on shortly after flashing?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
I had the issue after flushing with V6 supercharger. I just pulled the battery and put it back in.

Try clearing cache, dalvik-cache.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ninsei:
Does anyone know of another smartphone that has the same screen size (physical glass surface) as the Mytouch Q LG C800? i ask cause the brand screen protector I like (Steinheil or Powersupport) doesn't make one for our smartphone.

I'll get on it in the next few days an have something then.

Netflix crash for anyone else?

CM9 nightly and Netflix crashes whenever I try to actually play a movie. Any help is appreciated.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
I'm wondering how V6 compares to apps such as auto memory manager on the "aggressive" setting.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
The former tweaks the actual android settings. The latter is an additional process that emulates those settings. It's silly to me to use a program (an additional resource) to manage resources.

Fix for webview not rendering

Seems forcing 2D acceleration (using the GPU) works to force gmail and friendcaster (at least) to display the message body.

Under Settings > Developer Options > Force GPU Rendering.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] vxbinaca:
Does this improve general performance ontop of fixing whatever the issue is?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] gagdude:
Forcing GPU rendering makes tasks rely more on the GPU rather than putting more strain on the CPU which does in effect speed up the system.

Is there a way to update the baseband radio firmware on the C800. I see there is such a thing as a .kdz file but I don't know how to extract it from Linux.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] chui101:
There's no baseband in the 2.3.6 kdz file... just contains a boot, recovery, and system image. The RIL is a bit buggy so the baseband shows up as unknown but it will work.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] vxbinaca:
Chui you want me to leave my other phone stock to get radio updates or to test with? Any way i can help.

Also i think i managed to catch the screen on/off reboot problem in a logcatg
[Miscellaneous Android Development] josh2020glacier:
Okay been running for only 2 days and I'm already loving the rom. I haven't had any real problems at all on things I see are minor.

No camera flash but there is for video. Shoot I remember took HTC my touch 4 g. Awhile to fix a lot with the camera.

The stupid music icon stays on the top even when you stop music.

Keyboard doesn't fit screen easy fix replace with one on line.

Sometimes I get little lag scrolling home screen.

Never seen a 4G or Have Always 3g sign

All of these are minor things.

Is there anyway to get weather in status bar like in HTC my touch 4G

Other then this is haven't had a loss of data or anything all is good thanks dev always loved my cyanogen roms. Still use them on my nephews G1 Lol

I know most of these have been already said most likely threw out this thread but I like to give help too.

lg c800 runnin cm9 nightly
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
I noticed that It never said 4G either. It's probably because the mytouch runs a HPSA+ 42Mbps network, which is widely considered "3.5G" and not 4G. Just my guess, I don't know whether Chui has control over that or not, since the cyanogen code decides that.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] dsreyes1014:
That's weird my video doesn't work but I do have flash with camera. Is everyone else's video working?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] josh2020glacier:
Yeah my video works great try to wipe dalvik and cache

If that dont work clear the camera app from the setting

lg c800 runnin cm9 nightly
[Miscellaneous Android Development] dsreyes1014:
Ok well I'm having a problem then. lol

I didn't even know that it was supposed to be working all this time.

Error: 'Unfortunately the camera has stopped working'

I did a wipe of the dalvik and the cache in CWM Recovery and still same error.

I guess I'll try wiping everything and reinstalling the latest nightly and see if that helps. Thanks for the help.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] dsreyes1014:
Update: I wiped everything and reinstalled the latest nightly and everything is working as it should as far as I can tell.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] vxbinaca:
So we were supposed to be getting auto nightly builds of not just the rom but the recovery was supposed to be officially supported.

When are we getting jenkins builds?

What happens with our bug reports and logcats?

Is development dead?

How can i change the keyboard mappings?

Hi. 'running CM9. I want the smiley face on the pull out kybd to be the control key. i think the scan code for that key is 106. i tried editing the Generic.kl file but that didn't seem to do anything.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] dsreyes1014:
Guys quick question.

Is anyone able to video chat via let's say... with the app 'Tango' or something similar? Just curious to see if anyone is having the same problem as I am.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
Running cm-9-20120923-NIGHTLY-c800.zip (latest zip so far).

Everything works for me. Removed a bunch of crap, and using Nova launcher.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] josh2020glacier:
K finally see the H icon.

How this guy video chat when lg c800 aint got front facing camera??????
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
Reading what you write hurts my head.

Video works fine (on skype). I just can't see the other person (although I can hear them fine).
[Miscellaneous Android Development] dsreyes1014:
Well for example my wife has the same phone with stock ROM and she is able to use the Tango app without it crashing on her. With mine when a call is connected the app crashes saying it stopped working. Thought I'd ask to see if it was just my phone or not.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] chui101:
You need to edit the /system/usr/keylayout/univa_q-keypad.kl file for the physical keyboard. if you want to change key code behaviours you need to edit /system/usr/keylayout/univa_q-keypad.kcm.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] josh2020glacier:
My bad give me little bit and ill test it out too.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] vxbinaca:
I'm still getting Shift/Alt locking (though waiting a second or two seems to fix the locking).

Pros:

Faster!

Cons:

The c800 has a second MUCH weaker front speaker and the new build is using it instead of the louder one. Why LG would put a second speaker into the phone, is beyond me. All my calls are so quiet and weak now.

I have not been able to get the phone to crash on screen on/off yet.

Edit:

I've gotten it to crash. Chui is any work on this being done or are these just fresher compiles with the same bugs?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Mr_Biggles:
I've tried the 3 most recent nightlies over the last week or two. Unfortunately I still get a certain amount of lag on the home screen, menu scrolling and the like. I was pretty much used to it enough to ignore it but I was also getting a bit of lag with the on-screen keyboard. I'm not an overly speedy typist but it was still laggy enough to miss letters. V6 Supercharger helped a bit as did switching the cpu governor to interactive.

The other issue I have is that my battery life dropped pretty drastically. I used to get 3+ days from a charge on GB but it dropped to just making it through a full day. I don't have a data plan and don't use the phone for email, facebook, etc. even on wifi. Just some texting, ereading and the odd phone call.

I did get one crash on screen wake, but everything else seemed to work as it should.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] chui101:
They're pretty much newer compiles with the same bugs. The flash patch hasn't made it in, so if you want that functionality you need to use the experimental build from a few weeks back.

I haven't gotten much work in lately because between school and work I haven't had time to compile. I'm currently saving up money for an AMD FX system which should be able to do a full compile in about an hour.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] dsreyes1014:
You be pretty pleased with that cpu. I'm running a fx4100 and yes compile times should only take an hour. Glad to hear you're upgrading.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
How much do you need still? Maybe we can send some money your way :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] josh2020glacier:
I agree I might be broke but if you need cash to help this phone then maybe we could pitch in to help.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] dsreyes1014:

[Miscellaneous Android Development] vxbinaca:
Yeah let us know.

I have the eclypse with virgin flashed the latest nightly from stock.

Loving the ics experience on the phone. Only issues I have are

No 4g so far

Physical keyboard quirks. No .com or smiley buttons and shift and function keys stay enabled.

No camera flash

A bit more laggy than stock but i do have a large picture library.

Other than those, which most i expected coming in, I have been running for 2 days and have no plans to back to stock. Thanks for the great mod!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] josh2020glacier:

[Miscellaneous Android Development] vxbinaca:
Nova Launcher is awesome on this ROM. I pull Trebuchet and replace it with that, and with the 25 cent sale on Nova Prime, it's purrrfect.

Let's see how the new nightly goes.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] chui101:
I've priced out a build at ~$350 that should do the job perfectly. AMD 880 motherboard, FX-6100, 8GB ram. I should have enough money saved by next Friday (next paycheck) to order it!

wiping data for this video camera to work?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] josh2020glacier:
Try reinstalling im not having any problems whats so ever with the 1003 biuld. Camera and video work fine for me

lg c800 running cm9 nightlies
[Miscellaneous Android Development] vxbinaca:
Yes, you always wipe.

Flashed the latest nightly. Running a lot smoother. Wiped dalvik cache this time too so that also might have helped. Flash is working for video but not the camera.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] josh2020glacier:
K i came from biuld 930 only wipe dalvik and cache then installed rom. The camera flash is working perfect for me. Hmm???

lg c800 running cm9 nightlies
[Miscellaneous Android Development] dsreyes1014:
Yea I just wiped data for the camera app and that seemed to work on the 9/30 build. I'll try the latest experiemental and see if that helps.

Update: It worked on the latest experiemental build as well. Thanks guys.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] vxbinaca:
How'd they get the nightlies to double speed in a month? This thing used to crawl with Chrome and now it runs decent even with a live wall.

Mind you, here's the mods I do that improve performence:

- Latest nightly/gapps

- Flash Cerberus and SU to latest vers

- Flash the custom tuned half of V6

- Kill/Remove Trebuchet and replace with Nova Primed

- Xylthe's calc installed, stock one removed.

- AdFree.

- Turn off all animations, set them all to 0.

- GPU render.

Phone flies when you do this.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Mr_Biggles:
Sorry to sound like a dummah, but what is Xylthe's calc? Google wasn't pointing at anything obvious. Thanks.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] vxbinaca:
His name is hard to spell but heres a link to the app:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.android2.calculator3

It's CM10's baked in calculator. It's better than the one you normally get and works on ICS and JB. I think all the built in apps should have expanded market updateable versions used in CM builds that are actually maintained so we don't have to get new roms for a fix to the one applet.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bunu:
What is the custom tuned half of V6 and maybe a link to the latest SU (if it is the binaries. If it is the app, we can get it off the play store right?)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
I think he means the custom minifrees that are set up for our phones. I use the unleaded 512 MB (I think).

Also, you can flash the latest SU form here: http://androidsu.com/superuser/

Now sure how much that speeds things up, but couldn't hurt ;)

I think you can check on the SU app as well for updates.
