Hey guys,
I've coded a tiny app to reboot your Optimus 2x or G2x into recovery mode without holding any buttons. Best thing is... it's free ;-) It doesn't install Clockworkmod, so if you want an app for that, check out Paul's paid app for that (Which does it on the O2x only)
I'd be really happy if you'd tap the ad displayed in the application, but you don't need to.
Yes, the app is ugly, fugly, disturbing, etc. but hey, it works :-D
It's to be found in the Android Market here: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.m...sma.lgo2xreboot, on AndroidPIT.com http://www.androidpit.com/en/android/marke...recovery-reboot and in the attachment of course!
Update: Implented a check if the app is runnning on an LG Optimus 2x or G2x.
Update #2: Made the app less fugly, thanks to fitsnugly.
Update #3: SU660 compatibility
I also attached the source code, if you're interested.
Thanks for the application, especially for the source.
Btw it wont work on [email protected] Editon ROM. ro.product.name returns "Optimus 2x" on that ROM.

That ROM should change the name, since its an unusual name for the device .

The ROM developer should fix that then, the other ro.product values are either too generic, or P990. This app should work on SU660 phones too, so lge_star is the best solution IMO. And I don't want to leave out the check, because writing on mmcblk0p3 on other phones could harm important data. ;-)
Nice one, works like a charm
Thanks, works great
thank you very much maxisma....
hehe I installed this 10 minutes ago and now I notice the thread and about ro.product.name just go into system and edit the build.prop, change the ro.product.name to lge_star then reboot and the program works fine
Thanks, and i clicked on the ad. How much do you get for it?

wonderfull! +1
Great job!
I would also prefer if there was a "Shut down" option.
(I don't like the long push power button)
Dude thanks! Great job. Saved me a lot of time.
Really nice job! If you have the time, make it look a little smoother tho, than just two big buttons.. But a really nice job! I like the app!
It`cool, thx

With this tool, my Optimus 2X SU660 now can reboot to CWM. Before I can't enter with the combine keys. Of course, I need to use Root Explorer to edit build.prop file: change to ro.product.name=lge_star ( from SU660 ).

[Old Now Froyo Only!]
Hi all,
Update 30/03: Testing seems okay so flashable zip file for recovery added.
There seems to be a lot of demand for a silent video camera and I sometimes wonder if the motives are questionable but nevertheless, I aim to please.
LG have put security around the video camera sound files (these are in camera.apk/res/raw/ - camstart01.wav and camstop01.wav). They verify the file by name, id and most significantly a hash key. This means it is impossible to change the files without changing the code.
So here we have the modified Camera.apk with code changes.
No video camera start sound
No video camera end sound
Still camera sounds not affected
Sound file verification and sound trigger code removed, no code added
Download the .zip file below and flash it from ClockworkMod Recovery.
Download: O2xNoVideoSound-unsigned.zip
Please report back and I like the 'Thanks' button below...
It seems to work like it should, no beep when starting/stopping recording!
Thank you very much
works great thanks!
Thanks! It works without problem!
Won't get it to work with my 2X
Sorry, im new at this...Why won't it install? Im opening it through Superbox/file manager to install it, but it won't work...help plz

I tried flashing this through CWM and it ended up getting stuck in a boot loop. Had to restore my backup to get it to boot again. I'm running stock Android 2.2.2, Kernal 2.6.32.9, Build FRG83G and LGE version LGP990-V10d.
Any ideas why it's not working?

No, I don't know why sorry. It should work, it simply replaces one file.
In fact I can't imagine what could even cause the loop. To be honest I'd need to see a log to confirm what the problem was.
If you can get a log with adb whilst it's looping I'd take a look for you but of course this is effort you may not care to go to.
Thanks for the reply and offer, but yea that is a bit more effort than I think the silent video is worth at the moment. Hopefully nobody else is having issues.

I tried to change name on the original contacts.apk but it didn't matter. do i have to delete the old one before i try and install the new one ?
*Edit*
I got it now, only overwrite the old one and it should work !
Nice share. When i bake MCR r4 from the online kitchen at modaco this afternoon, I chose the LG contact, simply because the stock froyo contact.apk doesn't look good.
Just wanted to say it did not work for me on stock but it does on the fr4 ROM.
Anyway, thanks for this!
I'm sorry, and I know that there is a chance I get fried for this but, what is so great about the stock dialer/contacts? It doesn't have T9 search, and looks rather awful... To me the LG integration is nice, and sense even better
I just wanna know why people choose stock over "custom"

Hi
I have noticed that a lot of people have complained about HTC_IME don't save the settings and words not being saved to the dictionary, as I love this keyboard it's a must that everything works... so I thought if we can try fix this problem, on my Nexus S it works great but on the 2X like I said, problems.... can it be kernel related?
I'm on stock LG ROM v10a and do not have any issues with HTC_IME. my settings were saved and words were also saved to the dictionary.

So maybe the problem may lies in the kernel? Have u tried to reboot the device and check as whether the settings and words are saved? Many of us can save but after a reboot or kill keyboard to apply certain changes all the words will be back to the original state...

don't know man... :/ maybe with CyanogenMod 7 it will work again, otherwise try the Smart Keyboard Pro, it's exactly the same as HTC_IME.
Which version of HTC IME are people using? I've just installed an old one I had and it's very pixelated... Anyone got something a little better?
thanks
Edit: This is the link to the LG Keyboard, good for CM7 : Download

I had these errors too. You need to change your input method to the LG keyboard. That stopped the constant fc stuff for me. Flashing the LG Keyboard apparently ****s up the stock one.

Hi Devs,
i've just integrated with success the keyboard from leaked LG rom.
To let all users/devs profit, here a short explanation how to do this:
You need to copy following files from leaked rom:
1.) libautohan_jni.so
2.) libjni_xt9input.so
3.) libxt9core.so
4.) usr/xt9 from usr folder
5.) AIME.apk from app folder
after flashing your upated rom, reboot and choose from keyboards in settings
the LG keyboard and all is fine.
Tested only on my gingerbread rom, and it works - i dont guarantee that this
would work on Froyo roms.
thanks for reading
Thanks a ton for the tutorial ;-)

There are not only music libs. Whole audio subsystem is modified by LG to work with FM in another way that in CyanogenMod. So to change libaudio (main device specified library) we should change too much other libs and still can't be sure that it will work.

Why is everyone so lazy? If we devs were so lazy there wouldn't be any roms or kernels avaliable. Just take the files from the leaked rom and push them to your system. Is that too hard?
