U need to lower you rom standards or make the perfect cm9/ics rom. I had a problem with our device not having enough roms until someone explained to me that we don't need 20 diff cm7 roms or 10 diff ics roms. Our devs do a good job so we don't need those the amount of roms we have is good look at the older smartphones and their roms. U see they are not up to date. (Like most of ours)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] polarbearmc:
lower your rom standards?

lower your rom standards?

i totally agree with the op. i'm not complaining about the great work the devs are doing. they're doing what they do because they love it and that's great. but every rom has issues in the "doesn't work" section and there's no reason us users shouldn't be asking for a rom with nothing left that doesn't work. i mean that should be everyones goal, right?

if there was a single rom with no known issues, i'd be on it in a heart beat. especially a sense-less one. i'd even take gingerbread if it was no known issues.

and as for "we don't need 20 different cm7 roms and 10 different ics roms" ... of course we don't. i'd like to see ONE of each that's fully working.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] K7Cobb:
Yes thats the goal but if theyve released the rom with 1 or 2 problems then why should it be a problem. I use virtuous infinty and has 2 problems thats it. Dont quote me but i dont think there is a PERFECT ROM. Because again it is a rom not made by the company but our devs. And then again the roms our devs make have less serious problems than the ones companies have
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
Then you get the invite to either put up some work, or fall back to the shadows. You guys asking for stuff we do for free in our free time sucks. And to see how unappreciated we are. If we pulled all links everyone that's whining now would be in tears
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] K7Cobb:
EXACTLY. I'm not a dev but this is what I did not want to happen but seems like nobody can agree
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
For those that haven't taken the time to READ to see what others are saying about how a ROM works......well there is no excuse for you and IMHO have no business saying a word about anything. If a person is so smart that they know how things SHOULD work but can't even figure out a few commands in ADB & how to make it work then you're getting things backasswards. Just download it, evaluate it and if you don't expend the friggin' TIME to read then just STFU!

What you're showing is ABSOLUTELY NO RESPECT for the vast amounts of time and effort these developers have sat at home alone into the wee hours of the morning LEARNING by trial & error and collaboration among themselves for their OWN betterment. NOT FOR OURS!!! We are ALL damn lucky that they see fit to share ANYTHING with ANY of us and ask for nothing more that a little honest feedback and an occasional THANK YOU!

now....off my friggin' soapbox
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] manimmal:
We shouldn't be asking unless we can help in some way, shape or form. As you said, all the devs are doing what they can though we may not be aware of it. Look at how much time Blue put in Bulletproof alone. Kudos Blue!!!

If you want a ROM with no known issues, it exists! Go back to STOCK! LoL One of each ROM that's fully working will not happen because of the reasons that Blue listed and I agree with him completely. And the term "lower your ROM standards" is very fitting to me. It doesn't mean settle for less, but more so just pick the ROM that best suits you. They are there.

My DD right now is MikXE for various reasons and I've never had a single problem with it...at all. I don't use WiFi tethering or WiFi calling but those are features important to some(now I'd LOVE for just 1 feature to be added to it *cough* screenoffmusiccontrol Strapped *cough* LoL), but if it doesn't I'm not going to die. Already perfect in my eyes and I love it the way it is! And Blue's Bulletproof is flawless, everything works!

If a person doesn't like reading then XDA isn't the place to be. Sometimes within the thread there are tips shown that will fix some issues within the ROM that one might not know existed without reading. Then, in other threads there are ways to tweak things to get certain features working in the ROM that may show as not working in the OP...sometimes! Either way, if we want EVERY single feature on the phone working (Even the ones we don't use?) then Stock/Bulletproof is the only way to go. Otherwise, just get a new phone...?

Makes no sense feeling we deserve better for our phones when we have better, but just not up to "our standards". What the devs do...is FREE! As Strapped mentioned, if we had none of these ROMs/Threads, what would we do then? I for one sure as hell don't want to find out!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
WELL SAID!!!!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] onebornoflight:
Threads like this sincerely make me sick. I'm an end user ONLY for lack of a viable machine to build on... Somehow i figure building roms on the device isn't feasible (haha!) But my first reaction to this thread was "don't flame the guy don't flame the guy."

These developers have taken what some people get paid to do and enhanced it to almost an art form where they are singularly doing the job that entire DEVELOPMENT teams get paid to do for MONTHS at a time and you have a developer like XMC working on 4 roms at a time AND a kernel and whatever else AND a real job and school or whatever. Seriously if they aren't doing enough for you then code your own dream rom or run miktouch (which ran off stock kernel PERFECTLY for me for the first three months I was rooted).

Besides... What is stable for me might not be for you, or for any of the other end users here. I've ran MikXE, Vanillabean, MikMIUI, CM9 alphas 2-6, Paranoid Android and am currently running Virtuous Infinity alpha 2. ALL have been more than stable enough to function for me with a few quirks... Given i don't depend on Wifi as much as some, but still. Everyone makes a huge deal out of 1080 camcorder but seriously on this screen nobody can tell a resolution difference. I needed gps to work well and calling to work... I was a pizza delivery guy so that was what I needed to be stable.

Seriously to the OP - IF you aren't brave enough to try roms and see what works for you (seeing as how i've had ZERO of the reported bugs i've seen on most of the roms i have run) then stfu and do us all a favor and go back to stock or get a nexus and have a good time. There you can have 50 versions of everything you could ever want to ***** about. OR become a viable member of this great team and contribute. Help test the roms because stability is only a NAND away.

*steps off my soapbox*

And to answer the subject question:

There are plenty of stable roms to choose from. Most every rom here can be used as a daily driver... It just comes down to what YOU can live with as far as bugs go... After all stock had that battery getting really hot "bug" didn't it?

Wifi disconnecting with screen off without an app seems so inconsequential compared to a bug that can fry your device, right? Lets not forget that i've been testing roms and kernels that might've fried my device with only a G1 as a backup LOL.

Oh yeah... And in case you guys missed it...

TBalden, Kornyone, XMC-Wildchild,Strapped365, Sun_Dream, Blue and the rest... You guys kick ass. Let me know if you're ever in Bama and i'll buy you all a beer or several. And... Welcome riyal as well! You have taken my doubleshot from stock hell to the ecstasy that is whatever os i feel like running at any given time.

Sent from my HTC Doubleshot running Virtuous Infinity 1.33 alpha 2.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
Well to tell all the ICS ROMs around here should have been stable already only if we were given ICS updates. Problem is we were not and developers recycle CM source code or ROMs from other HTC devices praying that most of them would work to bring up ICS on our device. Ok that's fine but there are propriety files still missing or incompatible drivers which makes the bugs. Unless some dev would put his life in reverse engineering the missing drivers and stuffs we wouldn't be expecting any stable ICS ROMs here.

@onebornoflight

what did I do? Lol I'm no doubleshot developer yet I'm still at the learning stage just owning this device for almost just a week now. Didn't provide any development stuffs yet :p
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] onebornoflight:

Or would you prefer to be unincluded LOL?

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] onebornoflight:
Crap.... There's a fix for that somewhere in another kernel I think. I can't remember which one though.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
Its fixed in the latest alphas, should also be fixed in the latest "stable". But run alpha 5 its the most stable. Overall

Clockworkmod Recovery (CWM) + TeamWin Recovery (TWRP) for LG P940 (Prada 3.0)​

As we can't modify neither boot nor recovery partition we need use 2nd-init.

This means that the whole recovery resides on the system partition.

For more info see this article about 2nd-init: http://cvpcs.org/blog/2011-06-14/2nd-init._what_it_is_and_how_it_works

This is now a fully signed recovery!

We can manually sign the images now (leaked LG RSA keys). This means this installs to the separate recovery partition and is not bound to the installed rom anymore.

You can also flash a custom recovery via fastboot (no prior rooting required)

yeah, /system/app is actually an extra partition on lg's stock rom.

type "mount" in a shell and see what i amtalking about.

the recoveries are aimed to be used with custom roms, so i wont maintain any support for stock roms.

i barely have any freetime atm and am pretty busy getting cm9 to run (without all that awful drm stuff).

if you want to install an app to /system/app/ you need to manually copy them, change the mounts (which involves modifying init) or by unmounting system2 and remounting /system.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] sorrowuk:
Got a bug to report with these recoveries. Both have this problem. Maybe you can fix at some point.

When doing a system backup or restore from recovery the system/app contents are not backed up or restored.

This is because the system/app contents are stored on a different partition to the system partition.

There are stored here:

system2 -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p13

All the other system files are stored here:

system -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p10

Therefore when doing a backup or restore this partition system2 needs to be mounted at system/app

sorry i cross forum for this,

i have a p920 device and ics port rom from xbsall.

everybody seem so get your twrp working on their device but for some people like me it just wont boot to recovery.

it just boot normally to the system.

i tried to reflash all over again including the ics bin baseband and reroot my device multiple times without sucess to boot to recovery.

however i did manage to boot to twrp once at the first time and did a full back up. but i messed up with my imei and have to flash again. since then no luck boot to recovery.

is there anyway i could restore my twrp backup using fastboot? or some other way? hopefully if i could somehow restore my twrp backup and make it work again

i was wondering if you could help me with this.

thank you so much in advance.

Hello Sir @milaq,

I have SU760 official ICS 4.0.4 running, I installed your 1.0.1.0 Version apk and chose TWRP and it installed flawlessly.

It has been working great ever since. Now that you have updated your APK and it installs directly into recovery partition I wanted to know is it safe to install it in Optimus 3d SU760?

I know that an other developer dexter I guess have a working recovery but it only works with custom U-Boot and then you have to flash many other files, that process just scares me.

Please Reply if you have time, Thanks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] milaq:
yes, it is. 3g video calling should be possible. but please ask in the general prada 3.0 thread.

i've updated the installer so that it uses safe paths. i suggest you do a backup of the recovery partition with

dd if=/dev/block/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.1/by-name/recovery of=/sdcard/recovery.bak

in a terminal shell.

also, make a backup of your data via the 2nd init recovery you already have installed.

afterwards it should be alright to use version 2.1 of the recovery installer.

since we can access fastboot, the p940,p920 and variants are very hard to brick.

Okay I tried to install this new Recovery in my LG Optimus 3D SU760 running official ICS 4.0.4, right after I tried to enter recovery my phone just shut down an now it is not turning on.

It shows LG Logo and just turns off again. The Older version worked the one which was being installed in ROM itself and not the Recovery partition.

About the Key combination I tried Volume Minus + 3D Button nothing happened. Then I tried Volume Plus + 3D button and it bricked.

The older version worked maybe because it only needed Volume Negative button, and Prada has Camera button where Optimus 3D has 3D button.

Whatever the reason I thought you guys should know. Best of Luck
[Miscellaneous Android Development] milaq:
thanks for sharing.

myeah, the o3d cant load the kernel included in the new recovery. although both devices share most of their hardware, their kernels greatly differ.

the old recovery method used 2nd-init, which means it used your kernel (the one that is already installed in your system).

but you should be able to unpack the boot image, repack it with your kernel and sign it with ifttool. you should have a working recovery then.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] saaqirajput:
I have absolutely no Idea what you are talking about. :confused:

Anyway If you have spare time someday look into it. I have uploaded "boot.emmc.win" and "recovery.emmc.win" files here made by your TWRP on SU760. I don't know if it will be helpful but here it is anyway.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] milaq:
alright :)

made a quick and dirty recovery image from the kernel you provided and the p940 recovery ramdisk.

if the second init recovery worked, this one should too (not sure though).

this is already signed, so you can use it with the stock bootloader.

please test and let me now.
