[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danow11:
So ive had my g2 about two years now, its got is scratches and what not, but for the most part it functions well.

The largest issue is that sometimes when using the touch screen when i pull my finger away that area will stay activated like my finger is there. Happens a lot when using the on screen keyboard, and it seems to be getting a little worse.

Sometimes a good cleaning helps, but before long it comes back.

Anyone have the same experience, or able to recommend a fix.

Was thinking of doing a digitizer/screen replacement but figured id see if there were any experienced suggestions.

Thanks in advance!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oVeRdOsE.:
since my phone is new I have this ''issue''.

I got it on the motorola milestone also.

But for me, the problem appear when I have sweaty hand ( stress or too much cofee). It looks like if I still press a key even if my finger is off.

My brother had the same problem on is galaxy SII , he put a plastic film (protective glass) and the problem is gone.

In inverse, if my fingers are too dry, the screen has difficulty to respond.

My solutions : wash my hans often, dont drink coffee, dont stress and wipe the screen on my jeans.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rancur3p1c:
So I'm on an Atrix 4g worried that my phone has same screen resolution. If I want more screen real estate, will a 4.3" screen do the trick? That's only 0.3" more than I have currently...

for example I find it a bit difficult to type effectively on my phone, I miss buttons and misspell all the time. Will 4.3" be large enough to make an appreciable difference?

So many unknowns......
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sy0120:
I had an Atrix and boy was it tiny (looking back). If you buy the M you won't notice THAT Much of a difference because the soft keys hog almost .3 inches, keeping the experience virtually the same when youre typing but when you game and watch video its noticeable
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rancur3p1c:
So I should wait for a fullscreen 4.5" phone probably.

I've successfully ported / combined wkpark's CWM5 for early P990 ICS build to the latest v28G build and its completely different recovery.img

Update Nov 12: re-based on different CWM 5 and the latest v28G recovery image base. Update recommended!

Update Nov 15: re-based on CWM 6 and the latest v28G recovery image base. Update recommended! No more big font!

Requirements: Stock v28E ICS or later => new partitioning structure, new bootloader (unlocked)

Download: look at the bottom

Installation:

[LG Optimus 2x] naazgulla:
Under usb debugging mode i flashed it. but when i try to enter cwm, an android with spinning cube appears and phone restarts. It erased my internal memory and it starts with 'welcome' wizard'
[LG Optimus 2x] thamerkh:
I can confirm this ! happened to me too ! :(
[LG Optimus 2x] yukkio:
I cant install I think it cant mount data for r/w or something (i've unlocked bootloader). Also i cant do remount because when i enter adb remount i get this:

remount failed: Operation not permitted
[LG Optimus 2x] TheSSJ:
Didn't happen for me. I flashed it directly from the phone without adb.

Also I don't understand why you execute the psneuter exploit Stefan? It is more than sufficient to just do the dd if=/location/to/recovery of=/destination part.

Maybe the psneuter exploit does something with the internal storage??
[LG Optimus 2x] yukkio:
Ok, I did:

shell@android:/sdcard # dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p8

dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p8

13680+0 records in

13680+0 records out

7004160 bytes transferred in 2.740 secs (2556262 bytes/sec)

BR.

Edit: backing up ICS v28E rom :)
[LG Optimus 2x] naazgulla:
Can u please elaborate on your method?
[LG Optimus 2x] TheSSJ:
Copy the recovery.img to your /sdcard/ and then do as stated in this post:

Sorry, could you possibly point me to how to connect the phone in ADB mode. I know APX, but not ADB.

Thx so much
[LG Optimus 2x] wawyed:
i did the dd thing but how can i enter recovery mode?? I tried su, reboot recovery. Doesnt work.
[LG Optimus 2x] TheSSJ:
Shutdown your phone. Then keep volume down button AND power button pressed until you are in recovery mode. Important: BOTH pressed constantly.

[LG Optimus 2x] thamerkh:
DO NOT do that . there's something wrong with the recovery ! it wipes /data !!
[LG Optimus 2x] naazgulla:
For those having trouble copy recovery.img to internal sd. Open terminal and type su and grant permission. Then type

dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p8

Mind the spaces.

Then type reboot.

Done!
[LG Optimus 2x] Stefan Gündhör:
The recovery is fine but the flashing part seems to be broken. I've removed the link for now and might add it lateron with a new flashing method.
[LG Optimus 2x] Pete Rask:
Is it only me but I can't access my external SD after booting into CWM. Only internal. Just letting u know. Thx!
[LG Optimus 2x] naazgulla:
ITs working fine for me....just flashed new 28g rom and addons from external sd. Although log was showing lot of errors...but it was opening. Try going to mounts and storage and mount external sd from there.. just a thought.
[LG Optimus 2x] Stefan Gündhör:
I will provide a new recovery.img soon, based on v28G
[LG Optimus 2x] Pete Rask:
Yea, forgot to mention that I tried that but no success. Will try to reboot a third time and in case not working I'll reflash again and see if it makes any difference.
[LG Optimus 2x] TheSSJ:
non-sense, i have accessed cwm 10 times now and nothing was wiped..
[LG Optimus 2x] wals46:
Is it possible to code a nvflash file of new bootloader together with the cwm recovery so that it is possible to apply to the already installed original 28G without wiping data? Then this Rom could be ready for future cwm ICS updates.

Tks
[LG Optimus 2x] naazgulla:
I partially agree with you. If you flash it on phone itself using terminal it doess no harm. But if u try installing thorugh USB debugging mode and NVflash it then u had it..
[LG Optimus 2x] wkpark:
you can change your bootloader by the following methods

1. NVFlash method #1

the included /sbin/postrecoveryboot.sh detect MISC partition size and copy recovery.fstab conditionally.
[LG Optimus 2x] Stefan Gündhör:
Well very nice! :good:

Is there some advantage over this one (besides that GB/CM7/CM10 users can use it too)? you can't keep it either when going back to Gingerbread layout, because recovery is in a different location there, right?

Can you post a version of v28g cwm with the standard appearance?

[LG Optimus 2x] wkpark:
what doyou mean? that is for SU600 only.

Please see /sbin/postrecoveryboot.sh included in the CWM5

it includes both GB-recovery.fstab, ICS-recovery.fstab

for the more it could be possible to make CWM universal, except its default.prop and kernel.
[LG Optimus 2x] wals46:
You have to forgive me but now I have some confusion.

Please let me write again a summary of my whishes for a stock LG 28G already running with my data, apps and so on.

I would like to have

1. root (at least)

then optionally and in separated nvflash files without wiping running rom

2. new bootloader

3. cwm recovery

I also would like to know if I can nvflash these files all together in one shot.

Some posts ago I understood that it is impossible to have some of these option without wiping my data, now it could be possible only for cwm. But then how can I have cwm without new bootloader? and how can I have new bootloader without wiping data?

Sorry again and thank you again.
[LG Optimus 2x] spyrosk:
@Stefan,

I just flashed the last recovery.img as you recommended.

I can enter CWM with Vol- & PWR

but I still CANNOT enter SW Upgrading with Vol- & plugged USB in.

I noticed this: (maybe it is irrelevant but I felt I should mention it)

In first partition.cfg for V28E (the stock one not yours) the size of SOS partition was 20971520

in your latest V28G the size is 6860800 (and a little bit greater in your V28E)

Is there a posibility that the partition is too small or bootloader needs to see a specific size?

Sorry if this is nonsense

[LG Optimus 2x] Stefan Gündhör:
Oh accidentially I wrote "VOL DOWN + POWER" but it's just (VOL DOWN + plugging in USB)

Here is what I did: first it didn't work (SMartflash mode) - then I booted, set to "charging only", shut down, battery out, connected and it worked
[LG Optimus 2x] trocopassu:
It's strange, ya...for me never worked in new bootloader!!!...
[LG Optimus 2x] spyrosk:
@Stefan,

Maybe the only way to find out what is causing the problem is one of us having the problem to flash the ORIGINAL V28G STOCK rom

and then start flashing each img at a time from your nvflash version and try to get smartflash, until we find out which one causing the problem.

I can do it but unfortunately not before tomorrow evening. It is quite late here and I have to get up at 6 in the morning.

What do you think of this idea?

Nandroid Backup Wrong Date

I did a Nandroid backup of my ROM but the date is wrong . It shows me 2007-02.01.00.00.42 ? I am using the updated version of CWM .

And I notice that I still have CWM version number 5.0.2.8D . Is this the newest version ?
[LG Optimus 2x] wals46:
The same to me. Since after the flash of 28E I had to nvflash to Froyo/GB before smartflashing the new 28G.

With new bootloader smartflash stops after flashing baseband and get a connection error with 2X. Then 2x dies and there's no way to rebirth it but nvflash.

Maybe wkpark (if I remember well) is right to suggest to mount the battery just before launching smartflash on a rom with new bootloader, but now I'm not going to try.
[LG Optimus 2x] Stefan Gündhör:
Maybe you will never have to change BB again anyway! If your battery is good and v28G is already final release (IF).
[LG Optimus 2x] wals46:
Never say never. I'm so curious about this that I'm certain that sooner or later I'll try new rom, new root, new cwm, new kernel and so on.

BTW I bought and android terminal just to try open systems.

[LG Optimus 2x] trocopassu:
Ya...it's truth.

Give this "error" but works normally.
[LG Optimus 2x] wkpark:
It not normal. why the /cache partition is not mounted correctly by the /sbin/recovery ?

you'd better to check /etc/recovery.fstab and /tmp/recovery.log to fix this error.
[LG Optimus 2x] trocopassu:
Sure to give error is not normal! ...

However, the required action is performed normally and without error, is not it?
[LG Optimus 2x] spyrosk:
I think it's because in the Stefan's deodexed version the /cache partition is converted to ext4
[LG Optimus 2x] wkpark:
Ive check the bootloader included in the V28G repacked NVFlash version.

It is the V30C/V30 ICS bootloader for SU660!!

SU600 works with both V28G bootloader and V30C bootloader without problem

but P990 does not! strange enough

anyway you'd better to use the v28e/v28g cracked ICS bootloader found at

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=33939677&postcount=620
[LG Optimus 2x] Stefan Gündhör:
Dammit so I've accidentially included SU660 bootloader?? I guess that's the reason then for Smartflash not working.

Will make rebuilds of the NVFlash versions soon, hopefully also with CWM with bigger font and the /cache error fixed.
[LG Optimus 2x] rmein:
Oops... That will be my fault :o. I just flashed wkpark's SU660 cracked bootloader and recovery to see how they worked before he did his properly unlocked P990 bootloader. The phone booted normally and booted to the non-working recovery, so I just assumed we could use the SU660 bootloader. :o
[LG Optimus 2x] Stefan Gündhör:
True, I just took the bootloader you used :D

But now problem, all this will be fixed soon without full wipe:

[LG Optimus 2x] wapz:
Just nvflashed this (even though the .bat didn't work because my dodgy WinXP install has no "choice" app). I just took the nvflash command from the .bat file and it worked fine.

wkpark, are there any other symptoms we might have seen on p990 with su660 bootloader? I just rebooted and suddenly it reports my battery level as 100% even though it wasn't when I shut it down before I flashed the bootloader.

Update: my battery voltage is at 3.90v and it reports 100% full. Even when i connect the charger it says I should disconnect it because it's full. Time for a battery stats wipe I believe :)
[LG Optimus 2x] joiN85:
In win 7 work perfect...

Battery 100% is normal and date-time changed but no wipe data!

It is the fastest way to change the bootloader without data loss...

Will I lose all my data? does the restore work from nanadroid?

Whats the diffreance between V28e & V28g

Hi Guys,

Whats the difference between V28e & V28g, is any major difference:fingers-crossed:,

Im currently on V28e there is a bug in V28E the phone doesn't auto update time and date i have to manually set it :eek:

can some one tell me the difference, and when will we get a custom kernel for ICS :fingers-crossed:
[LG Optimus 2x] SREEPRAJAY:
you have the answer in one of the posts mate....some updated Kernel, binaries and a few more....stated by Stefan in one post...use the search and you will find the answer by yourself.

Auto update time is something which is to be 'set OFF'. there are some issues with that....so just stay with the manual (not a bug which u cant live without) time setting.

dont worry....our devs are out there polishing all the roughs....so patience is the word now ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] joiN85:
This is new bootloader unlock by wkpark.

ROM Manager

@Stefan,

1) To have ROM Manager full functional it requires to install a recovery image, but then IT WILL BREAK our modified one (for ICS partition layout).

2) Newer versions (newer than 5.0.1.1) don't see the external sdcard (neither in GB nor in ICS) at least for me. Can someone else confirm that please?

So what do we need this pre-installed for? If someone wants it anyway he can always install it from google-play.

Thanks
[LG Optimus 2x] wkpark:
without lost data???

NO! wrong information

as I already mentioned at http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=33939677&postcount=620

all partitions are preserved except UDB(internal storage)

the nvflash randomly break UDB partion table I guess.. :silly:
[LG Optimus 2x] joiN85:
With my package no wipe data!

In p990 with "o2x-nvflash-bootloader_unlock_v28.rar" connect phone in NVFlash mode and open "flash-boot.bat" pick 1

NO DATA LOST!
[LG Optimus 2x] wkpark:
nvflash and smartflash are all same result,

It breaks "ramdomly" the UDB(internal storage) partition.

It means that sometimes you might saved your UDB, but at other times UDB partition will be corrupted if you are not lucky.

EDIT:

the Smartflash cleaner (for SU660) always wipe the UDB partition.

Just extract the recovery image from zip file and use dd command (found in first post) in Terminal. Worked fine for me! :thumbup:

Btw, does anyone else having problems with accessing external SD in cwm? Had the same problem in v5 as now in v6.
[LG Optimus 2x] trocopassu:
By default the CWM nandroid backup makes adding the folder "blobs" ... with "millions" of files.

Picking up another format for backup - TAR - solved this "problem" ...

[Sorry my English!...]
[LG Optimus 2x] rmein:
It is not only millions of files, but millions of folders too (well, 2414 in my case).

I think this is the cause of the incredibly long SD card media scanning times some people have been having. I made a dedup backup, and scanning media files certainly took much much longer than usual. It looks like the media scanner is looking for media or a .nomedia file in every single directory, rather than ignoring all subdirectories after finding the first .nomedia.
