Just noticed this and I can confirm that the PDroid patch seems to introduce a bug into the ROM. For example, I was unable to open Foursquare since it kept FCing miserably - could not even log in into the app. Removed the patch and Foursquare works again. Didn't get the chance to test GPS because, well, couldn't access Foursquare hehe.
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
Oh btw, two questions:

Anyone using the sms and missed call "breathing" features?

Yes, the name sucks, but I did't wanna kang it - but I think it's a neat feature.

Just checking as I didn't see any post regarding that, yet.

Second:

Anyone knows a nice & simple theme?

I've been using the HoloGlass Theme for a while now - you might have seen it in a couple of my last screenshots with all the transparency.

But I got a bit bored of the glass - and it sucks some performance - so I'm looking for something else.

The theme is perfect - clean white statusbar icons, NO icon changes in the launcher, keeps the holo design.

I weren't able to find anything like that - most themes think they need to re-invent android.

They change the quicksettings, the toggles, the icons, the sliders, the backgrounds (mostly black) etc.

So if anyone does have something that keeps the holo design but add's a nice different touch.

arcee has some of those clean themes in the playstore, but I'm looking for some more :)

https://play.google.com/store/apps/developer?id=Ricardo+Cerqueira&hl=en

Yes, I know the mega themes thread of xda, just asking if someone has recommendations.

I started hacking the apk to remove the glass stuff, but that's a pita and takes way too much time - I have loads of glitches :D
[LG Optimus 2x] komedol:
1. Yes, I'm using the "breathing" features and they look cool, thanks! Brings back the memory of GB days (an app called LG Notification and if I recall correctly, such notification feature on LED buttons is also available in CM7).

2. You can try Betterbean CM10 theme. IMHO, they look clean and holo-like.
[LG Optimus 2x] DrummerMuppet:
I did try the "breathing" features but, to be honest, didn't like 'em that much :p I guess I like to keep things simple. Thank you anyways, having options it's always nice :)
[LG Optimus 2x] slomo90:
Yeah I'm using the breathing notification feature, its pretty neat. As for themes, you can try Thyrus holo themes, I'm personally using mianogen theme, its pretty simple but has some icon changes. I've also used this theme in the past, BOSS theme http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1687776

[LG Optimus 2x] Beorn1:
I'm using it as well, and even though it doesn't really add any real "functionality", I still think that it's really cool and I love it!

BTW I still had the nitz problem after a few restarts, but since adding those lines posted a few posts ago (or maybe it was in another thread? I don't remember anymore) to the build.prop it's working great.

Pretty cool theme. Keeps stock icons and status bar but makes everything transparent. Awesome unless you hate your wallpaper.
[LG Optimus 2x] wucinac:
Im using Hue theme. Everything is themed to black.
[LG Optimus 2x] proyatzu:
You mean that using this theme could bring less performance? I thought that themes haven't any sort of impact on performance..
[LG Optimus 2x] zorniki:
Right now I´m between 6 and 8% an hour with Wifi, 2/3G on and Sync on. What are your settings for power saving in the Wifi department? Guess I missed something. But afaics I´ve turned off all alarming apps, uninstalled GreenPower and so on. Just curious how you are getting these awesome drain values. :)

*** Syslog link ***

Oh, and your ROM is the non-plus-ultra out there! Congrats man! :D
[LG Optimus 2x] KiRAdot47:
if it has transparency ofc it will impact on perf
[LG Optimus 2x] body150165:
Talking about status bar: I installed CM10.1 yesterday and am fine with it. But I would like the status bar to be transparent. I searched this forum and the CM-forum, but can not find anything how to do.

There is a flashable zip for a Galaxy W for the transparent status bar.

Is it possible to flash it on the P990 or are those changes device-specific?
[LG Optimus 2x] Anurag pandey:
For themes I'll recommend popstyle or alloy(it got 4 different color schemes) yea they theme everything but they are pretty neat and are not too gaudy like the others. Popstyle is the best of the two but with the latest version you lose transparent status bar :(
[LG Optimus 2x] Luk_Optimus:
I used the breathing features but I don't see the advantage of'em... I like it better the stock way.

BUT anyways your rom is awesome!!
[LG Optimus 2x] alexander555:
A white Theme with black types would be the best. So you can read/view text/icons better with low brightness.

[LG Optimus 2x] k@iserex:
Theme whit heavy transparancy, masks could degrade performance slightly to not noticable but all black theme will have bettery battery life then bright/white, cos black saves screen leds while white pumps more energy to leds thus making screen uses more battery juice :)

[LG Optimus 2x] lucfig:
I think this battery savings just apply to AMOLED screens, not LCD.

Our phone has a LCD screen.

Enviado de meu LG-P990 usando o Tapatalk 2
[LG Optimus 2x] aMpeX:
It depends on the kind of crystal used.

AMOLEDS power each pixel separately, hence black means more disabled pixels means less power drain

LCDs are either "active-blocked" or "active-unblocked" (these are not the proper words btw) which means they either draw power to block the pixel (black) or draw power to release the pixel (white). While the former would drain less power with a white background, the latter is more battery efficient on a black theme.

In most cases (as far as I know) LCD screens are of the "active-blocked" variety which means a white background is more power efficient.
[LG Optimus 2x] proyatzu:
From what u said i understood that a white screen (i suppose themes with glass/transparency stuffs too) could drain less battery and be more performant then a theme without glass/transparency on our lcd device. Then on our device themes with glass/transparency, are not only pretty, but they are more battery friendly and performant. I get it?
[LG Optimus 2x] calatemaze:
No, white it's not the same as transparent. The phone will always be slower with transparent anything.
[LG Optimus 2x] mkchan:
Never knew this things as im working at an LCD manufacturing company here in taiwan..anyways, can we cahnge the font of the phone? ICS have this..
[LG Optimus 2x] aMpeX:
as far as white/bright themes are concerned yes.

Transparency is another story altogether.

First you need to determine if the transparency is static or requires processing power (say if the transparency is dynamic and the CPU has to determine what is behind it and so on)

As far as the display is concerned it doesn't care if the pixel is light green or bright green with a 50% transparent white object above it.

then again when you look at this Computer screen test: click me!

the power saved is negligible. You can save far more energy by simply dialing back your backlight because the backlight uses far more power.

Then again, if a white background makes your screen more readable at lower brightness levels than a black screen, then you can save a lot of power this way.
[LG Optimus 2x] sudden36:
Hey ho,

I downloaded and installed your testbuild (date: 22. 5.), now I can not acces the mobile dropbox website anymore, also after i visited dropbox i cannot access any other webpage, it stops with: This site has stopped working

In addition i cant access any subforum via xda app anymore, but can view threads that are listed at the "newest" page :confused:

I did not do a clean install, but will try on the weekend, have to go back to my backup ;)

I deleted the data of both apps, and tried reinstalling xda app, but neither helped

Have a nice logcat

Yes I do! Like it a lot! Sometimes I'm fooled by the Facebook messenger notification thinking it is a sms, but now I can tell them apart :P
[LG Optimus 2x] mind_challenge:
Can someone please explain to me what is this "breathing" feature, I tried googling, but couldn't find it. Thanks.
[LG Optimus 2x] tavoc:
havent tried it, but i think it is: the keys are glowing if a message comes in, like on and off.
[LG Optimus 2x] DrummerMuppet:
Using the Search function would have given you the answer to your question, no need for googling this time since it's a ROM feature introduced by Tony on T-Build 3 :p
[LG Optimus 2x] owais40:
Com'on didn't you read the changelog for build 3. Go to Settings>System>Status bar

and enable the Breathing Notifications for SMS and Missed Calls. You will see for yourself animated notification in Status bar when any SMS or Missed Call comes...

By the way tonyp, Breathing Notifications are awesome :D
[LG Optimus 2x] clashman90:
small problem

Hello tonyp.

My friend has a little problem.

I froze data and mobile coverage,, was with wifi and internet worked perfect but when removing the wifi, but does not change data (even though I have it selected).

I have labeled data, but does not work, I can not make or receive calls.

After restart everything is back to normal but the low battery a lot.

Rom: CM10.1 T-build 03

Version Kernel: Kow@lsky Exp122

Bootloader: NEW-Bootloader

BaseBand: v30a

Greetings and thanks.

Battery drain

Thanks Tonyp for you efforts. It has been great again to have this phone because of you ROM. However, what concerns me is the huge battery drain even though the phone is in deep sleep mode. I tried underclocking but it is still subsist.
[LG Optimus 2x] MatVekk:
Thanks

Use the rom 03 with kernel122 in newbl, and after a few days of use, I can say that I am proud of this phone. Thanks tonyp and thanks Pengus.
[LG Optimus 2x] LarsPT:
So this is why GPS has been so great lately! You wanted feedback... it's awesome!! Maybe you didn't get many issues because you didn't try in many different locations? And by different I mean more than one thousand kms apart. Before it had a lot of trouble locking when in a new location (I'm travelling back and forth every week by plane because of work so I had some trouble with GPS) but I noticed a big difference now, thanks!
[LG Optimus 2x] mas2112:
I have this weird time zone problem. Most of the time, I get the correct time from the network. But sometimes, my phone all of a sudden shows utc time. After rebooting it shows the correct time again. Anyone else have this problem? I'm using tonyp's build 3, kk 122, bb v30A.
[LG Optimus 2x] KiRAdot47:
because of the V30 baseband, tony included a fix, but you need data to correct the time offset

on v30 bb time is in NITZ, not GMT (afaik)

i got rid of it by flashing a v20 bb (this doesn't mean you have to do like me, just an example)
[LG Optimus 2x] rktdi:
A little feedback:

Breathing option - using it, loving it.

Gps - with 03, it locks within seconds, even if I am inside, standing by the window. Awesome.

Over all - no complaints at all, perfect rom / kernel!
[LG Optimus 2x] Trystan34:
I love this rom!! I have one problem though is this fixable? I can't change the brightness, when i try do it it changes the brightness of the leds and not the screen.
[LG Optimus 2x] jtlibre:
Hi!!

I keep am eye on this thread hopping that TonyP or someone else can find a fix for the trouble of the "no connection" issue.

Is it possible or is something connected with some different is something group of phones?

Is there any thing I can do to help? My knowledge is very limited but I can follow procedures and send logs if it helps. I do like this rom and would like very much to use it day by day.

Best regards from Zaragoza.
[LG Optimus 2x] owais40:
BTW did anybody notice the "Power Sounds" option in Settings>Sound. I think its new in this build and wasn't there before. It gives you "Notification Sound" and "Vibration" when charger is inserted or pulled out :D
[LG Optimus 2x] apsheheer:
The download stuck when the screen go off...is that a kernal issue or anything else...
[LG Optimus 2x] massimo69:
Its a kernel issue. We are waiting for the new wifi driver from [MENTION=3783116]pengus77[/MENTION].

It should solve the issue.
[LG Optimus 2x] pengus77:
It's a LG kernel driver isssue that doesn't play nice with the hotplug code (2nd core to sleep when screen goes off). I need to dig into the source and find out where it uses queues on the two cores... or replace the driver with an up-to-date one.
[LG Optimus 2x] clashman90:
pengus friend, would be so kind, to see this problem. If you need other logs.

again ordain others.

Thank you.

But I think more detailing is required. I can not use it as my daily ROM as it disconnects from network ...:(
[LG Optimus 2x] Shadowchaz:
You need to provide more information. Are you changing the brightness in Kowalski manager? Or are you changing it in the settings panel?

Also let us know what ROM you use, as I don't remember seeing anyone else with this problem :)

It works if you change it using the settings panel...

Go to Settings->Display->Brightness, untick Automatic brightness and move the slider. :good:

Signal issues

Okay, a couple people here reported issues with their signal.

I'm not sure if lots of people suffer from it - I doubt it, It's usually a loud minority with issues like that.

Be it as it may - I don't have any issues.

I went through the logs, but didn't see any apparent hints there unfortunately.

Here are a couple suggestions which might or might not help you to fix the issues.

I'd suggest someone creates an own thread so people who suffer from problems can start collaborating and post about their experience.

This has helped people who were suffering from the Transition wifi/data bug in the past as well.

The thread should get started by someone who is willing to put effort into maintaining it.

You're of course free to link to that thread in here then.

Try to change your baseband. This has already fixed the issues of a couple people. I'd suggest to start with v30a (EU) / v30b (Asia/Pacific), some of the popular GB ones and even check the SU660 BBs (v30c, 0420).

Try changing your RIL. For that I have hugely updated my RIL download page:

http://goo.im/devs/tonyp/P990-stuff/Basebands/RIL

Included is the CM ril, I'm not exactly sure where arcee got it from. It's not the same as the v28g one (as stated somewhere before).

Take the appropriate ones for your bootloader (compare the md5!).

I took the misssing RILs from carburanos ROM (thanks!) and changed the partition pointers in a hex editor for the oldbl versions.

If you know any more RILs please send me a link (to the RIL file, not the entire ROM!), then I'll add them there (SU660 ones for example?)

Try the erasing CAL Data method by dcseek's great findings. Check out x_justins' thread for pictured instructions.

Yes, this takes some time as you need to use a stock rom to restore the IMEI, but has helped lots of people with various issues caused by old cal data.

If you want to check if it's kernel related try flashing 121. In 122+ you could go to /system/etc/init.d/95kowalski and change the "echo 2" in the the last line to a "echo 0" and check if this does have an impact.

If that doesn't help, I'm out of ideas. I don't have the time to dig deeper into it currently - the RIL/BB field is way too complex for that.
[LG Optimus 2x] creison:
Ok iC it here my friend leme try here :cowboy::good:
[LG Optimus 2x] andreilica:
This ROM is awesome. I just love all the new features and stuff. :) But apparently it's a bit slower than your PA CM10 and not as smooth as it. Another thing, I installed that ported camera for cm10.1 and after made a photo and tried to see it, the screen remained black and then the phone was slow as hell( became unusable) . And after a few seconds it hot rebooted. If I can provide you any logs, which of them? And I don't know what to do now, if to stay with this rom or rollback to the CM10 . Thank you anyways for everything! :)

Great work tonyp, old bl & kk121v3 and everything runs PERFECT

In my case, i think is faster and smoother than PA12. However,i'll run a couple benchmarks to compare scores.
[LG Optimus 2x] JUMPhil:
That's by far the best ROM I ever had. I really appreciate your work, Toni. Thank you.

Not complaining, I think I found some bugs:

- Search key does not search for me, but it does vibrate on press.

- You can't really rearrange your existing quick settings tiles. They're always completely messed up then.

- I had the same problem with bluetooth that we had with hotspot on official cm 10.1: It tries to activate forever (until I reboot). (That was after I used some bluetooth app, which activated and deactivated bluetooth a few times, I think.) - I made no logcat.

I'm on new BL, this ROM :eek:, KK121, everything fresh installed over a completely wiped device.
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
Then don't post it.
[LG Optimus 2x] LarsPT:
Did you make it by now? No need to flash kk120, it's included. It's the kk121 which you should/could flash after.

But just try a full wipe, format system and flash the ROM, nothing else. If it's still not booting, try downloading the file again, maybe it got corrupt, even if I believe your recovery should detect that...
[LG Optimus 2x] DrummerMuppet:
What do you mean? I was able to rearrange / add / remove tiles without problems (see screenshot below).
[LG Optimus 2x] JUMPhil:
Add and remove also works flawless for me, but when I try to move them around the order gets messed up. I "solved" this by deleting all tiles and adding them in the order I wanted them to be.
[LG Optimus 2x] DrummerMuppet:
Just tested again to be sure and didn't have any issues rearranging tiles. Odd that it doesn't work for you. Maybe someone else can check, too?
[LG Optimus 2x] creison:
Unfortunelly kk 120 or kk 121 did not work with me and i did the full wipe, format system and flash many times and no luck :(

Im in the new bootloader and using latest TWRP recovery.

I also download the ROM 2 times and place one in internal sd and other in external sd and same problem boots cynogen 4eva!:(

Thanks in advance for the atention!
[LG Optimus 2x] querobolo:
Is there any solution for the problem when you turn off the screen and it takes a ****ing long time to turn on again??

By The Way, this ROM is more than awesome...PERFECT JOB
[LG Optimus 2x] pengus77:
If you're on windows, install the adb drivers.

If you're on linux or mac you don't need them.

Install adb, turn on the phone and connect usb cable. When the LG logo disappears and you see the spinning cyanogen one type "adb logcat" and see where it gets stuck. Report that log here. Pull battery, disconnect usb, put battery back in, turn on, connect usb and when you see the cm logo type "adb shell cat /proc/kmsg". Report that log here.
[LG Optimus 2x] DrummerMuppet:
This seems to be related to automatic brightness:

Another user reported that switching to manual brightness fixes it. I don't really mind it though, but I'm sharing the info here just in case someone else missed pengus' post on his thread.
[LG Optimus 2x] dced:
Can confirm that the switching of tiles is perfectly fine as well.

[LG Optimus 2x] Fess2Fess:
Hi all,

I had the lost signal issue too. I could manage to get rid of it til now. Maybe it will help someone.

First I disabled dynamic fsync (it didn't change anything).

Then, I went to recovery, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, flash KK121 (it worked well on my device), rewipe cache/dalvik to be sure. Everything turned back ok.

So I gave a second chance to KK122, and follow the same process as above.

reboot to recovery -> wipe cache/dalvik -> install KK122 -> rewipe cache/dalvik -> reboot system.

Since then, it works fine for me.

[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
Let me quote myself:
[LG Optimus 2x] Trystan34:
I am on tonyp - T-Build 03 (old boot loader) and latest Kowalski (old boot loader). When I changed the brighness by doing this "Settings->Display->Brightness, untick Automatic brightness and move the slide" It does not do anything. It used to change the brightness of led light (home button, search button, back button and option button lights). I then changed those lights in the Kowalski manager and it permanently changed it to one default light setting which is great but now when I change the brightness with options it does nothing at all.
[LG Optimus 2x] DrummerMuppet:
Just tested over here and had no issues with the brightness slider. It changes screen brightness without a problem, so it must be something at your end.

Did you come from another ROM before installing T-Build 3? If so, did you do a full wipe? Did you restore anything using Titanium Backup?
[LG Optimus 2x] Trystan34:
Yes, I came from CM7. I think I did a full wipe. I installed the new recovery menu which was new to me and where it said "slide to wipe" or something I did that. I then did restore apps from Titanium backup but made sure to not tick any other settings. I may have missed one but I am not sure.
