It didn't happen until today. It was really bad - I left a voice mail for myself on a home number, and I could only understand myself because I knew what I was saying...

I am using the NVflash deodexed V28g version. V28g baseband as well.
[LG Optimus 2x] R0B3RTF1SH3R:
i had major battery drain. until i grabbed the RIL from the 28a leak. and put it in the system/lib/ dir. change permissions and bam. it was literally going down 25-30% in 30 minutes.... now first charge. day lasted 10 hours 39 minutes. before charging it again now @ 3%.... not bad. i guess. but not the best but hey. calls work. everything working as intended.
[LG Optimus 2x] Stefan Gündhör:
Small heads up regarding battery drain on v28G

I found out the reason for the higher battery drain some people noticed @v28G: It is the power consumption of WIFI that drains the battery quickly. (Maybe also phone network connection in general drains it, I just noticed WIFI draining because I had it permanently on.)

I'm on deodexed version of v28G.

4 possible causes:

- deodexing introduced some wifi bug that leads to high drain when using wifi (unlikely)

- the RIL of v28G drains the battery when using WIFI or phone network much quicker than the v28E RIL (plausible)

- the wifi module of v28G kernel or v28G kernel itself draining battery faster than v28E equivalents when using WIFI (plausible)

- something else in v28G ROM causes it (unlikely)

So for finding out what causes drainage under v28G I ask you to do the following:

compare battery drains between v28G non-deodexed and v28G deodexed version

try to use v28E RIL on v28G (I made a flashable CWM ZIP, available in my download folder)

try to use v28E kernel on v28G (I made a flashable CWM ZIP, available in my download folder)

I'm looking foward to receiving a couple of reports from you guys over the next days! We need to figure out the reason for the higher drain.

For now I've switched myself to v28E kernel and v28E RIL to see if it gets better. But I recommend you only to try one change at a time because if you change two things at once you don't know which of the two is responsible for again better battery.
[LG Optimus 2x] Stefan Gündhör:
You are

wrong.

;)

Free space in /system partition of ODEXED (= NOT DEODEXED) ROM: 40,1MB - installation of full version of Google Now for Armv7 is not possible (requires >= 60MB free space in /system)

[*]Free space in /system partition of DEODEXED ROM with even MORE widgets in /system/app: 94,9MB - installation of full version of Google Now for Armv7 is possible

Funnily the size of the ZIPs of my deodexed ROMs is bigger. But that doesn't change the fact that it's the other way round when installed.

Yes, odexed apps load faster and booting process is faster (though the difference on our phone is minimal, I don't notice any in fact).

Deodexed apps on the other hand are smaller (because deodexed apk alone is smaller than odexed apk + odex file) and can be easier modified.
[LG Optimus 2x] orangisengbanget:
I don't know if it's drained or not, but I don't think so. It's normal drain with wifi on. And it's still 20% something when I took this screenshot

I'm using default v28G RIL and baseband extracted from kdz.

screenshot here : https://www.box.com/s/mgvwfkizj5cav0e9pkni
[LG Optimus 2x] antifragger:
I don't know if this directly related... I use the V28E ROM by tony and harsh.

I changed the baseband from the SU660- V30C to the V28G BB in prepartion for flashing this rom on the weekend.

I'm pretty sure that I had a lot less battery drain caused by WiFi before flashing the new baseband ...
[LG Optimus 2x] deniskimpe:
No one with same problem?
[LG Optimus 2x] Platoon:
I agree with you. CM10 is really alot faster than this ROM. Even though i like ICS menus, i will go back to django ROM because of lack of speed.

Is there a .zip that does that i have 6gb game data on my sd cardnin the map android. So the internal sd is to little.

Would be nice if some one give me a .zip or where i must go to witch file i need to change. Thx.

Maybe some one already asked but to many pages to find. Thx.

And i need to flash bb befor installing this rom?

You said smartflash doesnt work for every one.

Thx

I've had it too yesterday. NVFlashed v28G with v28E BB.
[LG Optimus 2x] ade_k012:
i'm sorry, noob question. how could we flash bb when we couldn't use smartflash? i want to flash bb v28G, but my phone was not detected in smartflash. this happen after i flash ICS v28G using NvFlash

thanks
[LG Optimus 2x] Tranos:
what happened on google now it doesnt look to be the proper google now for ics?

ps i think i found my solution i must flash this
[LG Optimus 2x] deniskimpe:
First go back to previous version for example gb with nvflash, then u re able to smartflash the bb and then nvflash 28g again
[LG Optimus 2x] R0B3RTF1SH3R:
i have used the ril from v30 i think its one tony put up in his goo folder when getril wasnt doing it... =D

so far 1st days use, 4 phone calls, 20 texts. browsed a bit. didnt really do much. 10 hours 30 minutes. which is about normal

lastnight. fresh it was going down like 23% or something in 30 minutes. so i disabled gtalk, did some digging at what was the prob.copied that RIL in and got a much better result. but thats not with WIFI on. lastnight the huge drain with with WIFI OFF also.... so yes i think perhaps a RIL problem.... also. any code for disable FAST DORMANCY?
[LG Optimus 2x] arrediabo:
I will be trying the v28E RIL in the next few days
[LG Optimus 2x] ade_k012:

Expect some big updates tonight. New NVFlash versions with following features:

- No full wipe required

- Smartflash working again

- CWM fixed: /cache error bug solved & smaller font size

Stay tuned!

You will be able to upgrade to those fixes without full wipe.

CWM

CWM is already installed and comes with this 28G ROM, but when I start ROM manager, message appears, that CWM Recovery has to be installed. What happen, if I click to install it!? Should I not?
[LG Optimus 2x] kingvortex:
Do not install CWM from Rom Manager. If you actually read the description of the rom you have installed, you will see Stefan has made a custom recovery to work with the new partition layout. Installing a different one will 100% break something.
[LG Optimus 2x] aMpeX:
Don't!

ROM Manager most likely doesnt know about the new partition layout and thus, checks the wrong memory block for the recovery.
[LG Optimus 2x] joiN85:
New Bootloader by wkpark (Thanks):

Smartflash work! and original LG Logo

[LG Optimus 2x] Odyn001:
If you have cache error in CWM simply clear cache and dalvik, it will be fixed.

I have done like that and it Works :laugh:

[LG Optimus 2x] DrummerMuppet:
This would work for both 28E and 28G, right?
[LG Optimus 2x] nikolav75:
My experience with the wifi drain bug. I have it in both 28e and 28g - both NVflash versions, 28g not deodexed.

If the settings is "Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep - Always" - big drain - more than 20-30% during the night. 2G only...

And if the setting is "Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep - only when charging"- no drain at all - during the night less than 1-2% drain. But another bug this way. After 5-10 minutes the the screen is switched off the wi-fi can't connect again - I have to swith it off and on manually.

PS. The BB is 28G, with the 28e no idea - which came with the first version of 28e.

No idea about the rill

And another different bug with the stock keyboard (i like it thou). Searching in the phone book in Cyrillic (Bulgarian) doesn't work correctly. The search (the filtering of the results to be exact) works up to the second letter. When selecting the third letter all results disappear, although the spelling is correct. With another keyboard (Smart keyboard) everything works OK.

PS. No problem in latin.
[LG Optimus 2x] Diskb0x:
quick update:

GetRil and LG Ril don't recognize phone as a P990 and looking in the system setting the baseband is unknown.

Not sure if this is an issue or not so mentioning it as I always have updated the RIL on first boot with a new rom.

After running FasterFix I get a GPS lock in under 5 seconds whilst indoors.

Rather oddly, with a SIM Lock set, after the phone boots I get to interact with it, use menus, re-enter my gmail password etc. for a few seconds before the SIM Lock screen is show. After a reboot this is still happening. I can access, all apps, contacts etc. for around 10-20 seconds before the SIM Lock locks the screen. Can someone else verify this please? Bit of a security glitch :(

The interface seems a little laggy but this will improve in the coming days/weeks I'm sure.
[LG Optimus 2x] zgemb0:
Hm, don't use *RIL* apps on ICS or JB...

If I remember correctly, CM10's RIL was renamed and moved to other location just to avoid this.

And try disabling PIN for SIM unlocking, might help you if you have no signal / unknown network.

Baseband unknown: older version of BB. Let it be if it works.

@Stefan

I am already with BB V28e and flashed Harsh Tonyp;s Flashable Zip of V20E.

And I dont think there will be any baseband mismatch problem for me if I flash this rom. But if other people have different Baseband, will this NVFlash version change Baseband also? In simple words, does this NVFlash change baseband too?

Even if this changes BB or does not changes, it will be good idea to mention about this in first post. So you will get less questions about BB. :)

[LG Optimus 2x] aMpeX:
A problem that appeared on my phone and is, apparently, related to the new bootloader, is that I cannot boot my phone into smartflash mode anymore. The screen just briefly flashes, but the modem device is not being connected.

I am currently reflashing a GB based NVFlash solution to confirm this happens only with this specific flash. I will report back.

edit: My suspicions have been proven right. When flashing back to the old bootloader, smartflash mode is working again. It's just nitpicking, but flashing a baseband after flashing your zip is not possible.
[LG Optimus 2x] mikle_01:

LINUX NVFlash Update

Hi Stefan,

while unpacking I saw that the Linux users are not included when flashing your newest ROM. I have attached a zip file containing two files. These two files have to be copied to the directory where the ROM files have been unpacked to. 'nvflash' is the linux counterpart to your 'nvflash.exe'. 'flash_linux.sh' is the equivalent to 'flashme.bat'.

Usage:

1. Change the directory to the one where all the files have been unpacked to. (The ROM files and the two from the attached zip)

2. Then in the terminal you can use

sudo sh flash_linux.sh

to run the same procedure you are doing under Windows. There is no need to install APX drivers or anything. Just use the old "battery out, Vol+/- pushed while inserting the USB cable" trick and you are ready to go. Tested to work under Ubuntu 12.10 64bit.

You could include the two files in your next release if you want.

[LG Optimus 2x] Topogigi:
Hello,

I compiled some useful modules for the stock kernel and I attach them to this post.

Remember that for making cifs.ko to work, you have to load md4.ko before.

Deadline scheduler is a special version patched by me: it works really fast....

You can put the modules into /system/lib/modules via "adb push" and load them with insmod.

I patched this wonderful rom a bit (enabled ext4 for /data and /cache, patched in supercharger, tuned all the partitions with noauto_da_alloc and switched the stock busybox with a good one) and the result is amazing for a 1GHZ stock kernel. My only complaint so far is about the governors: they all keep the second cpu active even if the kernel is compiled with the auto-hotplug tegra specific function. I can see the second cpu going to sleep only in a custom (recompiled) kernel as cpu.c lacks the cpu_up export to allow external governors (such as hotplug) to be compiled as modules. But it is more than enough at the actual stage....

This is a quadrant sample with all my tweaks applied (antutu is around 5600)....I'm a happy camper, thanks Stefan!
[LG Optimus 2x] SREEPRAJAY:
I am just quoting rmein's NVflash toolkit explanation, to find some clarity for myself.....nothing to offend anyone

***NEW ICS TOOLKIT*** NVflash_ToolkitICS_02.zip - 291.39 MB

This is for the new ICS partition format with unlocked bootloader included.

1. Backup internal partitions (useful for rooting any new builds)

2. Flash v28e ICS rom or backed up partitions using new LG partitition table

3. Revert to gingerbread partition layout with normal and large (ICS) partition size (no rom included, boot to CWM only)

4. Restore ICS data partition

Am i dreaming or if i understood right....the unlocked bootloader is the one from SU660 and creates the Smartflash non-availability...isnt it/.

So, can we flash something and end up with the same issue again?

any thoughts about this guys?

[LG Optimus 2x] spyrosk:
With both you can convert back to GB layout.

The ICS one has the v28e as base ROM (but with the wrong bootloader). After returning to GB layout you have to restore a backup of your previous GB ROM or flash another GB ROM you prefer.

The other toolkit has a GB ROM included in case you want to flash this.

Strange battery behavior

Hello everyone,

For what it's worth, I'd like to share some strange behavior I encountered with the v28G ROM today.

For information, I'm running V28G NVFLASH-Deodexed (no CWM) + V28G BB (flashed via Smartflash on stock v10b prioi to nvflashing v28g).

Yesterday I ran a battery calibration with the so-named application. Today, for optimization purposes, I decided to fully discharge the battery. I went down to 1% (in almost 20hours with 3G always on and medium use, which is not bad by the way !). Then the phone turned off. In order to really pull all the power off the battery, I switched the phone on and on, expecting it not to be able to switch on eventually. Every time I switched the phone on, it went to the LG bootanimation, and then switched off out of power after some seconds, not having enough power to get to android system. I did this more or less 15 times.

But at some point, It got to android. I was able to type my PIN code and entered the OS. The battery indicator was showing 100%, and battery monitor widget 999%. Also, I had a "unknown baseband" issue, with no signal.

But what stroke me was that I could run the phone like the battery was still full. It ran for more 15 minutes, before I decided to reboot it because I was kinda afraid of the no signal issue.

I plugged the phone to the AC charger and rebooted, and everything was back to normal : battery showing 1%, charging, and baseband/signal back.

What I mean here, is that I think there is a real problem with battery management, because the system thinks it is empty, though it is far from really being empty ! Which certainly leads to all the power consumption issues we know (high battery drainage mostly)

I came form a clean NVFlash process, battery calibration, so I don't think I made something wrong.

What is your opinion ?

Regards,

dapez
