The recovery does nothing for me. It backed up just fine. But then I tried to install the stock JB rom and it says flashing successful in 2 seconds. Then I reboot and obviously it fails to boot as I deleted /system to install the rom. When I go to restore the backup I made I get md5 mismatch error.

So I had to flash the kdz to get the phone running. I rooted and flashed freegee again. Again when I dirty flash the rom to test, in 2 secs I get successful message but nothing changed. I didn't delete /system this time so I would not have to flash kdz again.

Use this recovery. It works perfect for creating and restoring backups. And its touch interface is MUUUCH nicer to use.

Hi, I seem to have some issues:

I've tried the FreeGee app from the marketplace and get this error: "there was a problem untaring the file. Please try again"

I've tried the .bat file and it says:

./freegee.sh[7]: exhit: not found

./freegee.sh.[12]: busybox: not found

This script is for the wrong device...etc, even though I have a bell device and downloaded the bell version.

What could be causing these issues? My software version is E97310h, if that helps

Thanks

Whenever I try flashing a rom using twrp I get error, unable to mount usb-otg, any ideas?
[LG Optimus G (International)] Shelnutt2:
That's normal. Were gonna push an update with newer recoveries soon here.
[LG Optimus G (International)] xxbeanxx:
Is flashing aboot and boot necessary or can I just flash recovery to get cwm?

I really only want cwm for nandroid backups and to flash an odd zip here and there.
[LG Optimus G (International)] tankzar:
+1, having the same issues here. I am rooted, confirmed with Root Checker. Anybody have any ideas?
[LG Optimus G (International)] Shelnutt2:
You can skip boot but you need aboot (bootloader).

Install busybox from the market.
[LG Optimus G (International)] SharkbotJR:
Just wondering if this is safe to use on my e973. I did an ota update when I got the phone a couple of days ago. I got root and installed busy box. Dont know what other info I need.
[LG Optimus G (International)] LNJ:
If you have root and would like to try other roms, then you have to unlock. If you don't care about custom roms, you don't need to do anything else.

Will this work for the new jb updates?
[LG Optimus G (International)] Shelnutt2:
Not at this time. It looks like they swapped out sbl stack in the ota. I'm waiting for someone to give me a dump of sbls on ics and on jb for me to verify. Then I can update accordingly.
[LG Optimus G (International)] yeekli:
Totally agree, if you are intended to use Custom ROMS, why did you even bother to upgrade to the Official JB at the first place. It would make you life much easier if you root and unlock you device when it's still on ICS, since all the root/unlock tools for ICS are much more maturer and been tested.
[LG Optimus G (International)] sucsss:
any easy way to do that?
[LG Optimus G (International)] Shelnutt2:
From an adb shell or terminal emulator run the following:

su -c "dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/sbl1 of=/sdcard/sbl1-e971-JB.img"
su -c "dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/sbl2 of=/sdcard/sbl2-e971-JB.img"
su -c "dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/sbl3 of=/sdcard/sbl3-e971-JB.img"
[LG Optimus G (International)] lunde20b:

btw, will that code also work on the e973? I have both phones, and can provide either one.

Ok I've tried posting this in the cm10.1 thread at least 8 times, and it keeps showing up in this thread, not the cm10.1 thread. What the f***!!
[LG Optimus G (International)] Shelnutt2:
If you could post that for e973 that'd be good to.

Can anyone grab the ICS sbls for me too?
[LG Optimus G (International)] mandroid717:
I have been running custom Roms from day one. I decided to installed the official jb update to see how it felt. I then decided I wanted to go back to a custom Rom. I kdzed to stock ics rooted and freegeed. Everytime I ran feegee then rebooted the LG logo would flash on the display and the phone would freeze. With having installed the official jb update do you think it may have modified some firmware that would affect freegee. I did notice something unusual. When the phone reboots after running freegee it starts to boot then quickly shuts of and starts again. This is the first time I have seen this glitch.
[LG Optimus G (International)] ShorelineDroid:
Reply

It very well could have because a few things change with JB such as the sbl partitions - the one thing I've noticed with KDZ is it doesn't touch all of the system partitions - so if a partition has been modified that KDZ doesn't hit then it could create problems when trying to unlock. The best revert is truly to LGNPST with the stock .tot file that way it hits all of the partitions.

Does anyone else have this issue after updating to JB and going back to ICS via KDZ method?
[LG Optimus G (International)] mk_ln:
I seem to recall reading something like that regarding KDZ != LGNPST in terms of completeness, but didn't really think it would cause an issue. What originally happened to me was that I upgraded to the OTA JB (Rogers) and then successfully rooted then tried to FreeGee. The FreeGee failed and I used the KDZ method to revert back to Rogers JB (and it seems that I didn't lose any data from the KDZ either). From there, I used LGNPST to get back to stock ICS and rooted + FreeGee and am now on RootBox. What I found interesting is that chad and houston both suggest that it's best to unlock the bootloader while in JB, but FreeGee doesn't seem to work on JB currently...
[LG Optimus G (International)] brownsmell:
I am confused by them too mk_In, it must have been a brain fart when they posted that. I have been researching this and I think you are right that Freegee will not work after upgrading to the JB kdz.

I installed the xperia JB rom over ICS and I lost the ability to reboot to recovery. I would kdz to JB but I am afraid of getting stuck like you did.

UPDATE: I was able to boot into recovery by installing Rom Manager and using its toggle.
[LG Optimus G (International)] mk_ln:
yep, Shelnutt2 also mentions that FreeGee will not work with JB currently.
[LG Optimus G (International)] mathsz:

Confirmed this worked after kdz'ing the Rogers jellybean update.

Holding Vol. Down + Power doesnt seem to get me into TWRP, how many seconds do you hold it to work? If I hold it for 6 seconds or less it boots normally after flashing the LG logo 4 times. 8 seconds or longer and after the LG logo shows twice it turns off.

Also, should we install CWM before flashing roms or is TWRP safe now too?
[LG Optimus G (International)] iamtha1:
Vol up + power.... Then when ur in bootloader press volume down twice then power should get u into twrp
[LG Optimus G (International)] brownsmell:
thanks iamtha1.

Is it safe to flash new roms with TWRP? In the past some ppl say it bricked their phone because TWRP corrupted their SBL.
[LG Optimus G (International)] mk_ln:
i've been using TWRP for all the flashing on my E971. I've soft bricked my phone after using a custom AT&T kernel and running Antutu, but I don't recall soft bricking as a result of flashing with TWRP.

[LG Optimus 2x] redmonke255:
My back cover has been broken for a while now and now the camera lens is beat up and got dirt and stuff on it from being in my pockets and on tables. The cover is good for keeping the lens safe.
[LG Optimus 2x] 60nine:
yes, it's good to have it covered for preventing any mechanical damage to the lens but in my case i rarely keep anything else in the phone pocket...

when the phone seats on the table, the lens is still protected from the mechanical damage because it isn't in the same level with the table but slightly inside the back battery cover...

only dust can access it...

however... it was just an idea :)

Hey guys,

I hope somebody can help me out here. I'm trying to configure the cm build-in profile manager with the application group feature.

App of choice is xabber, a great xmpp client. I disabled the ring tone and vibro notification in the app, added a new group which includes xabber and set the notification to on, but it vibro override. The vibro does work when I get a notification, but does also vibrate when I remove the notification from the task bar with a swipe. It does also vibrate when I go on or offline. I just want a vibration when I receive a new message. While writing this, but I real there is probably no way for cm to differentiate between a real notification and a status change. Can anyone confirm this?

If someone has some an idea on how to solve this or where I can find documentation for the cm profile feature, I would appreciate that.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AzNTypeR:
Well.

I decided to do something stupid the other day and create a second partition for my SD card, which took more than 3 hours to backup the data!

Anyway now I discovered that my phone moves all the Linked apps back onto the internal memory, after relinking, I decided to restart my phone and now it wont turn on unless I remove the SD card. Now, after reinserting the SD card, its mounted but Link2SD cannot find the second partition, even though MiniTool recognizes it.

Any help or should I try recreate the mount scripts.

BTW, this all started when I pressed Quick Reboot in the Settings menu of Link2SD.

EDIT: As it turns out, my impatience took over and the phone successfully turned on, with all my apps on the internal memory in /data and I only have 36Kb of space left.. >.< Time to relink all my apps. I think its my phone moving all the apps back onto the internal memory. Anyone know a way around this?

TG P990 ICS V30A - Stable - Rom and Advanced Kernel

BY TOPOGIGI

FEATURES:

Long story short, this is a follow-up to the excellent work Stefan did with his ICS28G release. I decided to post this rom some days before my original intentions, because Stefan's thread is now closed and there will be no follow-up. Besides that, LG is making us wait until the end of the world before releasing their official update and this will make me work twice at least (now and when the proper kernel sources will be released). That's all.

Feedbacks are welcome.

DISCLAIMER: This ROM comes with NO warranty. If you brick your phone, don't blame me, I'm only experimenting with my phone and sharing the results with you, mates!

P.S. This rom wipes completely your phone (see changelog for exceptions),Backup all your data before installing this Rom!!!

CHANGELOG:

NOTES and KERNEL SOURCE:

CREDITS:
[LG Optimus 2x] Topogigi:
ROM is uploading now (37% at the time being).

In the meanwhile, I drop some notes and some thoughts about it:

1) I use this rom from last week without any issue (besides overclocking) ad I must admit that even with the recompiled kernel I noticed no issue. Battery life is quite good compared to CM7.

2) The kernel is the same that AREMCEE used for his CM10 and the issues I noticed there are not present here. I mean I did not encounter the in call audio bug nor the Bluetooth always disconnecting issues here. So, I think that the old bootloader has a role in these bugs (the kernel is not the guilty part).

3) Overclocking: this is a real mistery for me: on other devices the same code works a charm: here you can't achive a stable OC even at 1.2 Ghz. Please help me to discover if this behaviour is limited to my own device. Try to OC gradually and report your results. The rom will always boot at 1.0Ghz, so no risk to brick it!

4) ZRAM really helps in making device snappier, so you can assume that LG did finally a good work and all the lags you can experiment are due to RAM constraints.

Let me know....

EDit: yes OC is little flaky right now but we should be coming to stable point when more people work on it.

And old bootloader is not related to in-call audio bug, it will appear after 3-4 days. But its not always the case, that issue is not traceable. Bluetooth fix was simple and it would not be in your kernel if you are not using cyanogenmo_p990_defconfig
