[LG Optimus 2x] optimusG:
First problems with PA (by a guy who is coming from LG's official releases and believes that this one is so fast and smooth!!):

1) Time/date: After a reboot I have lost the right automatic time. Everytime I choose to sync the date/time automatically it ends up with wrong time. To be precise, it ends up showing -2 hours from the real time. I am at GMT +2. I have just unchecked the automatic time and set it manually. PARTIALLY SOLVED

2) Launcher redraws: I am using the latest Apex Pro and I have checked the "always keep in memory" inside its options. I didn't have this problem with the official ICS but now I have random redraws. Especially when I open apps like youtube, browser with many tabs, when I come back to launcher I have to wait 10 seconds to redraw. UNSOLVED

3) Performance Control App: It FC randomly but not that issue. I restart the app and it opens as it should. Now I am thinking installing SetCPU app but it doesn't have all these options (like minfree task killer). PARTIALLY SOLVED

4) Battery: Even if I have checked the PSP option via Kowalski Manager and set the TX power to 4db, the wifi drains too much battery when in standby (like 1% every 15minutes). I have checked the CPU states and it seems that the device is in very deep sleep when in standby. So, surely, there is no problem with the deep sleep. UNSOLVED

I am using PA B5 with the Kowalski 100p1 (with all modules from here). O/C to 1.4GHz and a matching ril (V30A). You can see some settings I have attached.

Every tip/solution/workaround/comment is always welcome. Thank you in advance!
[LG Optimus 2x] SREEPRAJAY:
I have a dual boot....DM 1.4 and Opti 1.3 both based on V30A/B....I dont see the phone number....just checked this by changing to both the ROMs....

Trocopassu's attachment.....my device also shows in the GetRIL Premium....I mean the BB/RIL matching, with the MD5 sum.....but the phone number......NO
[LG Optimus 2x] trocopassu:
Yes...in Stock ROMs BB / RIL Matching, but in CM ROM's NOT Matchinhg BB / RIL ...But still functioning perfectly! ...

Regards.
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
Confirmed, very good catch! There has been a mixup apperantly.

Now idea how the wrong RIL slipped through - I autogenerated that table for all 4 files in the folder and pushed the folder online afterwards.

The table is correct, but the one RIL is not. I just pushed the correct v28g RIL online, as you can see it's hash does match the table again.

(and yes, I double checked everything).

This means I'll push out an early build 6 in a couple hours!

Edit:

And don't worry, the partition address in the RIL doesn't seem to have any big impact. I've been doing countless calls with this build and didn't have one isse - and most people didn't either.

Still, it's for sure better to have the correct address inside, so you'll get another build soon :)
[LG Optimus 2x] SREEPRAJAY:
tonyp

just to confirm if the unknown phone number is related to a ROM issue ?

I dont have it in DM X and Opti both based on stock ROMs.....Sorry to have asked it here when this is not a Stock based ROM.

If it is possible, could I request you to explain....else its ok

Thanks in advance
[LG Optimus 2x] Custom40:
Seems to me that you have just watched the trailer of Fast & Furious 6 ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
I don't think it's a ROM issue, but I'm not 100% sure.

It never got shown for me, not even with the correct RIL.

Let me try to gather together some assumptions on that matter:

Some basebands are known to interfere with the SIM Toolkit. I had lots of reports in my baseband thread about SU660 BBs doing that.

As far as I know the phone number is stored as a special SIM contact, which you could edit e.g. with older Nokia phones.

So this might be a possibility why my phone number isn't displayed.

As the v28 and v30 BBs are somewhat similiar to the SU660 ones (see the automatic time issue) it's possible that they do as well.

So someone could try a GB BB (like 521 or 725) and check if this will bring back the number and SIM contacts.

(But yes, first use the correct RIL if you're on the new BB, we want to make sure).

@BS86:

If you're sure that it has been working on an old build please flash them one after the other and tell me on which build it worked the last time.

Then I'll take a look at the changes.
[LG Optimus 2x] natalya:
Too much information rofl..

Tony, you'll stick to the SU660 BB when running the next build? I can't use that BB since calls won't work properly as the other party can't hear me.. Corrently on V30A BB, when next build arrive, I'll try 725 and 521 BB's from GB, but right now, I am confused as hell.

Re: [ROM][old|new bl] ParanoidAndroid v2.6 - build 05 [Feb 12] [linaro][stable][smoot

1. Dont use automatic time adjustment, so its not a biggie. Tought that one was fixed?

2. Dont use Apex launcher, I had a lot of redraws on heavy use. Use Nova launcher insteed its as smooth and even smoother whit no redraws.

3. Try to solve fc by going to supersu app and giving su perms from there and see if it sticks giving no fc. Dont use setcpu app cos of inability of proper scaling of bouth cpu cores. Even PC app will be replaced whit trickster one eventualy for better compatability whit o2x.

4. Im using similar setup in kowalski manager and geting pretty decent battery drain. Couple of days ago had about 1d10h on battery whit 30% left and wifi constantly ON, pretty much moderate usage, whit sporadiclly heavy net usage, gaming does take some of battery too.

Ofcourse OC heavy and youll be asking for charger sooner than usually. :)
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
I know it doesn't work for everyone. I have already explained here why I'm using this particular BB.

I guess I could update to the v30a one, but I follow the "never touch a running system" approach for my BB.

Why should I change it if I don't have any issues?

I don't belive in all those hoax placebo voodoo news where some people claim to double their battery life after changing their BB.

@optimusG:

First, pretty much everything what k@iserex said. I'll add a couple notes:

You're the only one with problems I know of. I have no idea why it doesn't work for you. Maybe your carrier doesn't provide proper time values?

I don't know (nor care) why the "keep in memory" option of apex doesn't work.

I guess apex is memory hungry and blocks a lot of ram, now you do even more memory hungry tasks (like browsing with lots of tabs or watching videos) the launcher gets killed.

You can try to enable zram (and maybe even swap) if you haven't already.

Or use the V6 Supercharger and set the "die hard launcher", this might help.

Note that I rarely have launcher redraws with the leightweight Xperia launcher.

And if I do, e.g. after browsing lots of code with the github app, it redraws in about 2-3 seconds.

Known and neglictable problem.

But for sure don't use SetCPU - but start reading the kernel thread where all of this has already been discussed.

With all modules? With what modules? I certainly hope you didn't flash any modules on top of the kernel??

As I already said, start reading the kernel thread.

Additionally: Don't trust the battery statistic screen, wifis impact is less than it shows.

If you really got problems start using Betterbatterystats and try to pin point your problem.

And consider that you're using max OC, wifi and I guess 3G? Especially 3G drains a lot, 2G helps here.
[LG Optimus 2x] tr@p:
Actually to backup the guy, I had this before I did full wipe (also with new PA and kowalski 100 maybe)... don't remember now if it was reboot by me or something else... but nitz fix stopped working. I guess on some rare occasion this can happen, something went wrong on boot/reboot. I was going on full wipe anyway, so didn't care much about it.

I guess he can reflash the rom again, or simply flash nitzFix from penguses thread. Or wait new release... :D

Re: [ROM][old|new bl] ParanoidAndroid v2.6 - build 05 [Feb 12] [linaro][stable][smoot

Initially my sim card's phone number was not shown either, but after I changed it from the settings in the stock froyo or CM7 (temasek's most probably) it has been there. Maybe CM7 had the ability to write phone number to sim card.(?)

Sent from my LG-P990
[LG Optimus 2x] optimusG:
Hmmm... Ι had no problems with other ROMs. As k@iserex (thanks to him) it's not a big problem. I have just disabled automatic time/date setting.

Hmmm I ll try to supercharge it and if it doesn't help I may have to remove it (crying :p). Thank you!

OK I wont use setcpu. I have installed on top of the kernel the iwconfig package, the "DHCP Client replacement/update for CM10" package and the "WPA Supplicant replacement/update for CM10" package.

The steps:

1) Flashed PA + Gapps

2) Flashed the new Kowalski kernel

3) Flashed the 3 modules

4) Reboot

Sorry for the offtopic but I didn't know that it was a kernel issue.

OK. I may have to complete 2-3 charging cycles to clearly see about battery drain!

Many thanks guys!
[LG Optimus 2x] BS86:
I installed V30A baseband with the stock-ICS-Rom, and sim contacts were still working with Django Manouche X 1.2.1 - and i am pretty sure it was still working with your build 02, too - can i simply flash the old build over my build 05? or does it need a full wipe before?

just installed the 28g-newbl-ril - no change even after reboot, and no change with v30a-newbl-ril even after reboot... and nothing changed - except that my phone did a automatic reboot just after it had finished rebooting.

and getril still did not get the RIL-version

Edit: after restoreing a backup i made before changing RIL, I had a reboot, without having to enter the pin after it finished rebooting - i had that same thing with the 30a-RIL, but thought it is a bug
[LG Optimus 2x] k@iserex:
@optimusG

Regarding modules, dhcp and wpa updates, if Im not mistaken they are all included in the latest kowalski kernel, so its not a kernel issue at all. As Tony suggested start paying attention to kowalski thread to be on track. Battery do need couple of cycles to perform optimally, so stick whit ROM and observe battery drainage trough better battery stats app, so you could be well informed whats goin on. :D
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
Actually dhcp and wpa updates are not in the kernel but in the ROM.

In fact you NEVER had to flash those in PA as long as you've been using the newest builds.

At the time pengus released the flashable zips my new build went online which included these updates already.

Even worse: These zips from pengus thread are outdated, in the meantime a couple other cherry-picks have been added.

If something important needs to be flashed (excluding new kernel releases) I would announce it in the thread and update the instructions.

So anyone who follows the instructions from the OP (+ flashs a potential new kernel update) is safe.

Yes, you can swap between my builds without wiping (actually between all cm10 builds).

But to be absolutely safe just do a backup, then wipe, check out if there has been a build where SIM contacts worked, then restore.

And I don't know about sim contacts. I don't use them - they're 1990 ;)

Maybe an app like this might help you? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.needom.simcontacts&hl=en
[LG Optimus 2x] tr@p:
True that... at least on android contacts are pretty easy to manage. Just sync with your google account, and every rom change, phone change (at least android ones) are simple. Just log in, and wait couple of secs to sync them... ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] zchuxz3x:
Re: [ROM][old|new bl] ParanoidAndroid v2.6 - build 05 [Feb 12] [linaro][stable][smoot

[LG Optimus 2x] BS86:
thnaks, will try the old builds tomorrow. Backups are routine here ;)

I don't have contacts on the SIM, except some of the provider, like mailbox and stuff, my personal contacts are in the google-account ;)

don't want to constantly back them up ;)

i just thought that unknown number and sim-contacts are related, thats why i listed all the things, and while searching for the error, i found the wrong RIL ;)

Good ROM but.. battery no much =/
[LG Optimus 2x] optimusG:
@tonyp and the others who search about RIL issue.

I think that I figured out why GetRIL gives an error ("No RIL").

Navigating to system/lib, the file which is responsible for the RIL has a filename "liblgeril.so". If you download the matching RIL with GetRIL you will see that a new RIL file is added to the libraries with the filename "lge-ril.so".

So, after a clean install and before opening GetRIL, I manually changed the stock "liblgeril.so" with the V30A one (for new bl - of course I renamed it) and rebooted the phone. Then I have opened GetRIL and I received the same error message.

I think that GetRIL installs the right RIL file with a wrong filename.

Hope this helps a bit. :cyclops:
[LG Optimus 2x] detesto:
I raised them 25mV, and it froze again, and then raised it another 25mV, and it froze once more.

I think I'll revert to build 04 for now.
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
build 06 is building right now, will be available soon. :)

It's a kernel issue, you can stay with build 05 and install pengus newest 010 kernel.

Yeah, I know.

arcee changed the name of the RIL because people kept using GetRIL to change the RIL without knowing what they were doing and lost signal by doing so.

So CM10 and CM10.1 ROMs are not suppoted by GetRIL.
[LG Optimus 2x] detesto:
I'm a little confused between the links on the first post. Am I supposed to install the kernel

kowalski-kernel-010-newbl.zip

or the kernel

kowalski-kernel-100p1-newbl.zip

wich by date I think it's the newest kernel?
[LG Optimus 2x] thewoZa:
Install 11p4 - 100 versions introduced overclocking / undervolting = instabilities on some phones
[LG Optimus 2x] pengus77:
Not really a kernel issue, it's your phone that doesn't handle OC. Stick with 1GHz and download the last nightly from my thread that uses stock voltages.

build 06

Thanks to BS86 findings about the RIL i decided to push an early build 06.

But as I didn't want to build a new rom without anything new I spent a little time on adding some new features as well ;)

Changelog:

added a backup script which will backup your custom dpi settings when upgrading to a new version.

As this will get installed with build 06 it will work from flashing build 07 upwards - so you need to backup and restore for one last time.

String optimizations for bionic

EXPERIMENTAL (aka: do a backup): option to move the tablet status bar to the top.

Still need to test this in more detail, but this way it might be actually useful to enable the tablet UI workspace.

TabletUI workspace + a dpi of ~160 needed I guess, but if someone has better ideas post them in here.

Thanks to Peter Gregus for this feature!

option to control visibility of soft keys in tablet status bar

added option for seperate auto-rotate toggle (next to the settings button on the notification dropdown)

Yes, you can still just use the toggle. But this way you'll get one additional place if you want to add lots of stuff up there

Settings - Display

Hi tonyp!

Thanks for you hard work.

I love your rom and pengus kernel but I have a buggy phone that doesn't like OC/UV... so after new kowalski I got a lot of freeze or BSOD (now with last 2 experimental kowalski I got only BSOD no more freeze).

This morning, upgrading to latest build 06 + kk_exp_20130215-101, without wipe, I noticed that some applications had lost the configuration (not all, eg. gmail, whatsapp, nova laucher lost config but email, facebook, calendar no).

After about an hour got first BSOD as reported in pengus kernel thread.

So far perfect. Stable device for me. As far I have learned for our old granny, just don't use social shaite apps - facebook, g+, twitter etc, they are very greedy and buggy by itself. Without them the device works as should and battery life is very good also without additional syncs. Just use a browser for it...

So far only overall ics+ os letdown is sound - how in hell disable notification sounds while listening music on headphones that does not volume down and up ? Not mentioning the overall fidelity letdown, supercurio altough brang some hope in that department.

First: There's seriously no reason to bump your own post at the same day. You have to give the people - and me - some time, I'm not constantly at xda, :rolleyes:

To the memory management question:

You can use any possible way to change the default memfree values.

Overlay them with the init.d script or use an app from the playstore that sets them at boottime.

That's why I baked my changes into the framework (aka overwrote the default settings) - my customizations won't interfere with any overlaying then.

Try to wipe /system first.

Quicksettings?

Just flashed the 02-build after having updated to build 06 and made a backup, and either i remembered wrong, or something else changed on my phone: no sim-contacts and Unknown phone number on build 02, too ... but the PA-settings were kept, just like it should since build 06, or shouldn't it? ;)

I think this error is not related to base band or RIL, because with DMX 1.2.1 it was working, and i know that because i called the ADAC (car service club), which is a sim contact while i was on that ROM (DMX 1.2.1), and already had the V30A baseband on that ROM. But I don't know which RIL it uses.

But from my side, no need to investigate this issue any further.

Back on build 06, Something else occured: Suddenly i get notifications by xda-app, i got them yesterday after I inserted the correct RIL manually, but never got them before, although they are activated in the app-settings (installed the xda-app at the end of January after going to build 04 (the "return to v28g-build")). Does this app use the RIL :confused:
