The two best pingouins working together ! (understand 'developers' of course :) )

Thanks a lot Tonyp and Pengus for your amazing work :)

I've read on Pengus Kernel Thread that the old bootloader is for now limited to a 24mb ramhack against 32 for the new one

Except that.. I don't think there are lots of (visible) differences, but i'm not a developer (at all) ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] breaxta:
First of all the new CM10 ParanoidAndroid Rom with newest Kowaltzki Kernel is awesome. Thanks for that. I am really happy with my phone now.

I only found some small problems:

1. The 2G / 3G Toggle of the "Notification toggles" isn't working. It worked for me in official CM10 but in this rom there is no change of the network connection after activating or deactivating the toggle.

2. Since my Power Button isn't that responsive I would like to have the Volume rockers to wake up the screen. But it isn't working properly. Sometimes it works immediately, sometimes after a few clicks and sometimes it isn't working at all.

3. I am not able to install Youtube App. If I install it through Play Store it downloads normally and after that it tries to install but I get an Error like this: ' Unknown error code during application install: "-24" '

So I downloaded the youtube APK from the internet and tried to install that, but then it aborts also and it says: 'Application not installed'

Thats it. The rest is just perfect :D
[LG Optimus 2x] Zoldborso:
Hey guys I'm in a big need of your help. I'm so annoyed I'm about to bash my phone into the ground and take a crap on it.

I installed everything as stated, did like 20000 full wipes and whatnot all in order as it was in OP and I'm getting a bootloop with the unlocked thingy and the LG text on startup. I'm on the new BL btw. I can't enter recovery and this crap bootloop's been going for 5+ minutes now. I'm really frustrated, and I need my phone tomorrow, please I beg you help me out on this one. When I posted in pengus' thread I had no response (I had the same issue there), even though I posted a day later again to seek help.
[LG Optimus 2x] dr4go:
First of all: make it boot again. How to do that? Use one of these two files you can find here: http://d-h.st/users/gueste/?fld_id=7432#files

This will reflash anything (including the new bootloader and also recovery) and completely wipe your phone. The only thing, which won't get touched is the baseband. I've taken the link from this thread by the way (so be sure to thank there): http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1986097

The procedure is pretty easy... in short words: remove battery and connect your phone to the pc with BOTH vol up and vol down pressed and install the apx driver for your device (it is included in both links - just for the sake of simplicity: take the G version, because it is newer). After that... execute the *.bat file if you are on windows or the *.sh file if you are on linux. That's it. ;)

Then let the phone completely boot and complete the google wizard by hitting "done" then. After this procedure you are free to flash again whatever you want... so just choose your favourite rom then (of course: a rom for the new partition layout / bootloader) and use the cwm version you like (-> also be sure to take a cwm version, which is for the new layout).
[LG Optimus 2x] gm-smith:
well i can't get it to boot. shame was looking forward to try hwa enabled pa.

i'm on old bl / extended layout coming from cm 10.1. redownloaded/retried 2 times to make sure the archive is intact.

unsure whats going wrong. the kernel is loading/pa logo is showing on boot but it stalls / screen stays black.

i did not fullwipe but formatted system etc...
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
1. I'm aware of it. That's a bug of PA which they haven't fixed. I've tried to fix it, it's currently compiling and I will check tomorrow if it works now.

2. I think that never really worked for our device. But post at pengus thread, he might be able to fix it in the kernel.

3. No problems here.

Try to reset the custom dpis before the installation to 240. Use the Stock profile in pa settings.

Well, do a full wipe then.
[LG Optimus 2x] Nova163:
Had the same issue, solved when I did a factory reset. Also make sure you're flashing the right gapps
[LG Optimus 2x] 6783:
I have a question!? I installed 30b, after flashed unlocked bootloader via NVFlash, then i had problem with recovery. I tried different recovery (from Penguis tread too) and my phone stuck on LG Logo. Maybe i did something wrong? I made this procedure a few times with different recoveries.
[LG Optimus 2x] Schnuffi_1704:
Lost sync while using 2g only

Hi,

I'm reading the forum from nearly one year, never needed to register, found all my question answered at all.

Tonyp I love your PA build and was very happy to see, you've released a new one.

Everything works fine for me, only one issue.

I'm using 2g only all the time, because of battery usage for checking Emails and whatsapp its fast enough.

I've noticed that sync got lost after half a day or maybe a hole day, no Internetconnection possible anymore. My workaround is to activate 3g after I got a connection switching back to 2g only, which is than working again for the next day.

While Internetconnection is lost, theres a higher battery drain

did someone else noticed such a problem? And sorry for the bad english
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
If you used a wrong recovery then your partition map is probably borked - you need to use NVFlash (or just the AIO tool) to restore it.

I did not notice any problems, but I will change to 2G only now to monitor it.

Could you please extract a logcat and radio logcat after you notice you lost sync?
[LG Optimus 2x] Schnuffi_1704:
thanks tonyp,

you've got a link via pm. Hope this will help you

There should be an app called hwa settings in the app drawer. Looks like a cogwheel :cool:
[LG Optimus 2x] goodmamba:
Hi tony and once again thank you for your work on Optimus 2X.

Is there any way you could post a list of known bugs/workarounds for PA compared to the official ICS?

I can hardly wait to try your ROM.
[LG Optimus 2x] footwork*:
Nope not there, not listed in apps, nor in Titanium Backup.

EDIT: N/M, reflashed. It's there now.
[LG Optimus 2x] hungyhamster:
Ive used official ICS and CM10 this is the first build ive found usable as daily with no bugs, using Paranoid build 1 and Kowalski p009 kernal.

Ps. old bootloader

Sv: [Talk] ParanoidAndroid [Userthread]

I am currently on cm10 and Kowalski kernel. Running great imo - but is this rom + Kowalski kernel even better, in your opinion?
[LG Optimus 2x] Zoldborso:
Thanks! I figured a way myself with nvflash, but I was on the G version, but my logo was white. Pengus said white is old bl's colour. I'm confused. I flashed old bl back tho.
[LG Optimus 2x] gm-smith:
big big thanks to the penguins & men delivering this package. it is really worth to use PA & kowalski kernel.

i've been following raum's guide to activate swap and was in turn able to turn of zram. using the dyninteractive governor and the row sheduler.

, this feels like a new phone comparing to cm 10/10.1. great battery usage and standby, no lags (but i don't game) and i'm not even consider upgrading from build 1/latest kowalski yet because i'm addicted to the new feeling this has brought to the trusty ole p990...

again thanks guys, i appreciate it! everyone not using this combo is a fool :p
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
I agree :p

(although in all honesty I don't. As I wrote in my thread, it is targeted for stableness, so that's the #1 priority! No OC or similiar stuff will come to it by default.

If you're looking for sth. rock stable I would totally recommend it, if you're looking for the newest of the newest I'd recommend cm10.1)
[LG Optimus 2x] BS86:
i switched to this wonderful ROM (PA 2.5 build2) coming from DjangoManouche X 1.2.1 NooC, which is stock based

everything works wonderful, i flashed the swap-enabler, set the kernel-governor of the kowalski-10-newbl to dyninteractive, set the maximum CPU-frequency to 912, and everything keeps on going smooth and wonderful, even the Battery-Consumption :)

Except one thing:

I wanted to remove the CM-camera, but i have no idea how to ;) i already flashed the ICS-camera, but the facebook-app keeps crashing, once even to BSOD if i try to take a picture out of the app.

So, how can i remove the CM-Camera? i did not find an apk in system, and it is not listed in the Apps-Menu

Something weird just happened to me. Upgraded from CM10 PA 2.5 b (old bl) build 1 to build 2 (plus Kowalski kernel old bl from 009 to 010). I forgot tonyp's instruction and wiped cache + dalvik (old habits die hard). Now my app drawer is messed up (seems like something wrong with DPI setting, the icons look to close together) and when I tried accessing paranoidandroid settings - launch, I got a blank white screen (can't change to tablet UI or anything else).

Can anybody help?
[LG Optimus 2x] babaandnana:
Hi tonyp,

Will a gb baseband work with pa? I always use network signal in dbm and as i can recall, i get 59ish dbm signal strength before vs. 75ish dbm now in the same places. Im on v30b now. I was on v20L prior to switching to pa.
[LG Optimus 2x] imperator01:
Once again a great rom,thaks tony.

I'm on old bl and everything is great,no major bugs.

Charging is ok,no bsod,one culd say almost perfect:fingers-crossed:

Don't know is it rom or kernel related, but I think that the battery life is a bit worse compared to first release.

Could be Ril related,or kernel, I don't know?

I'm using old v20q BB,anyway need more charge cycles to test the battery life.
[LG Optimus 2x] kingvortex:

That will restore the launch page. I suggest reading the actual development thread for the rom every now and again as useful information is posted there often.

Of course, keep user questions and suggestions to this thread only :D
[LG Optimus 2x] Mynix:
Hello Tonyp

After some hours of fun with your rom I have some feedback to give :)

- Your rom is rather smooth :cowboy: (except some little freezes yesterday) and 'rather' because some apps take some times to launch :/ (like 'little physics 2d games', 2-3-4 seconds to launch)

- Battery life seems to be good, no problem with data connexion (BL 725, France. 2g/3G/Wi-Fi works, and the toggle button too :D)

- There's just the MMs apk that I don't like and I will try to change it and yeah Trebuchet which is not perfect (I'm trying other launchers..)

- Yesterday I faced the very slow charging bug, but if rebooting while pluging it seems to charge normally (but known bug on old bootloader)

- Britghness very low when unlocking (wake up phone I mean)

- Also what I would recommand is the expandaable status bar while in full screen (a little swipe at the top and the status bar appear !)

Very useful for time/battery/notification while playing

- And long press on return key to kills apps would kill a bit faster and do not play/pause games if possible.. (What I had on miui GB)

But that's only feedback and ideas

Thank for your work !

Yeah I know, I just said that it could take a little bit less time to kill apps because here it's like 4-5seconds

And not play/pause the game constantly while waiting for killing :/

[LG Optimus 2x] Custom40:
Haven't really bothered to ask before, but why is it, that the DPI Changer you posted waaay back in time modifies apps too while the PA settings don't?

I'll illustrate this by showing two screenshots of a random app (Root Explorer)...

PA Settings with Tonyp profile applied:

DPI Changer:

I just prefer the second and was wondering if there was a way to get that without using the DPI Changer?

Thanks once again.

Note: 1st screen taken after a full wipe followed by flashing build 03 and selecting Tonyp profile...
[LG Optimus 2x] aldyu:
The PA profile possibly did not apply to that app, it is still on 240 dpi. You muat manually change it in per app setting..
[LG Optimus 2x] Custom40:
Tried changing through per app to 240, 160, 190, everything there is to change there and it remained completely the same as before....
[LG Optimus 2x] sane?:
Your problem is the dreaded 'designers' got their hands on YouTube and excised the 3D view in latest versions of the apk (not fashionable). If you want the 3D 'wall of TVs' view, you need to find an old version of the apk - and not update.

Baseband: 1035.21_20121130

Automatic time did work before without a nitzfix: no

Automatic time works now with the testbuild: sometimes

Anything else you think that's useful:

Automatic time does not work if I flash the test build with it enabled, however if I flash the test build with it disabled it works when re-enabled after boot. But every reboot after this does not work.

Hope this helps

Have You?

Guys, firsto post over here! Yay :D

Been using this PA ROM for about 2 weeks and WHAT THE HECK! This ROM is amazing!

Just noticed a little something that I would like to report and see if you gays had the same issue. I was using my phone normally the whole day. When I woke up today my Phone was with about 40% less battery and I've noticed that "Media Services" was running for about 6h and keeping my processor going hot!

Do you guys know if this is kernel related? If it is maybe it will just get fixed in Kowalski's #012 tomorrow...

I'm on ParanoidAndroid 03 btw!

AW: [Talk] ParanoidAndroid [Userthread]

That does not sound like a kernel bug to me, i don't have this issue.

At mine, media server is shown when i listen to mp3s or use whatsapp a lot, because the mediaserver "provides" the data that is played with the mp3-player app, and also the whatsapp in-chat-notification sounds are media-sounds, not ringtones.

Please take a look what over apps you have running, that might cause the mediaserver to "provide" data

Hey guys, this is the best rom i've ever flashed on my 2x, without any doubt.

But only one thing, sadly, the camera quality.

BTW, sorry for my noobly question :o

how to change bootloader

Hi guys,

I am a bit confused with how the bootloaders work. The new bootloader seems to have some advantages (fast charge) with really no disadvantages, right? I searched for a explanation on how to chage bootloaders on the p990 and didnt find something written in a way for me to understand fully.

Is there a how-to that you can point me to?

tnx in advance
[LG Optimus 2x] Dscheesix:
Use this toolkit, it´s very easy: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2020737

But be carefull and read the instructions first please :D

Bootloader changing is option 4 but it means you have to reflash your ROM and stuff (apps, ...), ext-SD won´t be touched, but internal will be formated.

EDIT: also you should look up what Bootloader your prefered ROM needs (most only work with new-BL OR old-BL), only flashing because new BL seems to be better won´t help :)

I just wanted to note that mivv is working on O4X lockscreen for his ROM, would that help you in any way once he has finished since his is CM10 too?

I'm on tonyp's PA Build 04 and never had issues with the sd card. Did you do a full wipe before flashing? Maybe there is something wrong w/ ur SD? In that case backup and format might help.

There is a fix for internalSD mounting from what i heard:

Hi,

sry to hear you got this problems. Do you know the P990 toolkit:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2020737

I see three possibilities:

1. Software/ ROM got mixed up

2. SD Card is damaged

3. Phone hardware is damaged

First I would use CWM to format the SD (and formating the other partitions wont hurt too -> see: full wipe)

you can try to do a virgin PA installation and see how the phone performs - if well then

restore backup (backup first and save backup to PC).

hope that helps
