LG Update CM - LG Optimus 2x

There is an LG update coming this week. If i install cyanogenmod, will I have to install cyanogenmod once more after installing the LG update? Or will i be able to run the update on CM at all?

if you install cyanogenmod you will not get this update, it's only for stock rom (maybe other roms based on stock too)

Will they put the content in the update into a newer version of CM for 2X?

i'm using cyanogenmod on my lg o2x...if LG will release new firmware for camera, how can i install this firmware?

What if i first wait for the update, and then upgrade to CM after the update is installed?

Then any traces of the update will be removed. CM isn't an alteration of the stock ROM, it's built from source code from the ground up.

Not necessarily, the update may be baseband also, which controls the radio and low level stuff, which is independent from CM

Who says that there will be an update this week?

Prepare the P990 for the ICS update

I have rooted my device, installed the clockworkmod and Cyanogenmod 7.2
As far as I know you can't install a original firmware update on a rooted device.
So what do I need to do to prepare it for the ICS update?
Superoneclick unroot? will that do the trick?
Unroot
Yes super one click will unroot your phone. But you must flash it with an original 2.3 stock version if you want to use LG tools to upgrade it. Another way to get it is to download the .kdz ROM when it will be released and put it on your device.
Anyway, until now, only the SU660 -the korean version of the o2x- is getting upgrades... Patience
The best is to keep it this way and flash one of the modded stock ROM ....

What do you mean by upgrade.. I just said that when official Ics will be there, devs will make modded official Ics based roms... So you'll be able too upgrade from a modded ROM to another.

Ah okay, I thought you ment upgrading the official rom with LG-tool.
My Advice is to wat for the kernel source release.
It is said to be released 2 weeks afther the LG update.
Parandroid for O2x already has LG UI 3.0 + JB flavour. The only thing that lacks is video recording, hw acceleration and proprably other minor stuff.
So till the end of October, there will probably be CM9/CM10 release for O2x.
Hello,
How many time, in your opinion, after official release a zip cwm flashable official based ics will be aviable ? it's soooo easy to flash by this way (last time I flashed an official rom I was forced to use the ftp server method , worked well but ....)
Thanks

as soon as the official release will be out, for now be patient :laugh:, the devs on this site can produce a modded stock rom that can be flashed in cwm, just like v20q. till then we have to wait :silly:
I did use CWM to flash this: v20q.zip file (stock firmware GB) and did factory reset everything.
I can still acces the special boot menu when holding the power button and vol down button.
But I don't think the device is rooted?
Is that true?
I installed a memory cleaner app and it told me that my device is not rooted so I can't acces all the options.
So flashing v20q.zip file also unroots the phone?
Seems to be
But custom recovery remained.

[Q] Stock Rom update

Hi all, I put this question for my friend. His Nexus One was dead now came back from hardware changed. He found that his N1's frimware had changed from previously 2.3.6 to 2.1 now. He cannot find update function in the setting. Is there any way to back to 2.3.6 or any best stable stock rom at this moment? Thanks.

I'm not so familiar with upgrading stock roms, because my N1 was at 2.3.6 when I bought it. But in all stock and custom roms of my N1 and other Android phones there was at least an option at Settings -> About phone -> System updates to upgrade the firmware OTA. In custom roms this option is functionless, but it should be there. Perhaps it has been overlooked by your friend.
If there is against expectations no such option you can upgrade to the latest firmware over fastboot described here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1312540
This is the info.

I found another solution on a german blog: Dial * # * # C H E C K I N # * # * and you should receive a notification "checkin succeeded". After that check the settings again.

I don't know either. Google should help to find out. But with this roms you need to flash several updates to get the newest one. The procedure to install the updates is also different to the method I linked above. I think you have to flash them via recovery. But I'm not sure about that.
My friend just want it keeping stock rom. No rooting. I downloaded that rom u post to me. Which is 2.3.6. I upgraded from sd card. 2.1 > 2.3.6 at once. It can boot ok. But i wonder if anything not right...

If I remember rightly it should be the newest unrooted stock rom. So if it boots successfully it should be fine. Why do you think anything is not right?

isn't there is 2.3.7 as latest? I know CM has it, not sure about stock though.
I felt not right because I could upgrade from the lowest version rom 2.1 to highest version rom at once... just like it's root and flashing rom.

Good question. I'm not sure about that. A quick Google search let me think that the latest version for the N1 is 2.3.6 and 2.3.7 were released exclusive for the Nexus S.

If your device was unrooted, it should still be. You just flashed the whole firmware at once via fastboot instead of applying every single update via OTA or recovery.

So 2.3.7 stock is only for Nexus S As I know 2.3.7 should be latest version of Gingerbread, right?

Problem with Lollipop custom ROM

My phone was running official ROM, MIUI Jelly Bean until I decided to install custom recovery, repartition into 1.2 GB system memory and install custom ROM. I tried to install Xenon HD and RR and it booted. But after the lockscreen appeared, it stopped to respond. The touch sensor, the buttons except when I press and hold my power button. I connected my phone to my PC it didn't stuck anymore. It worked fine. What's the problem? I'm new to this phone. Do I have to install MIUI 6 first?

i suggest you to full wipe and then flash ROM and use appropriate and best available kernel for your ROM
btw I am using @Bitti09 's CM12.1 last build at the moment and will try his NEW OptiCancro ROM after few days

No. It was because I didn't update my baseband. I was too lazy to download the update [emoji14]
Now I have a fully working lollipop ROM.

By updating the firmware from MIUI 5 to MIUI 6. The baseband got changed too. I guess lollipop will work on our device if we use baseband that comes with MIUI 6.

Do you mean the modem (aka radio)?
That image should be flashable as a zip, assuming it's been extracted by someone. Good point, no flashable zip anywhere?

Anyone else get an update today?

I got an Android System update today, 26mb, and it tried to install it and failed...
Phone running stock, latest OTA, no root... But the bootloader is unlocked and it does have the no-force-encrypt kernel installed... Is that why it bombed?

the only way you can install an ota is by being 100% completely stock. any changed files and every ota will fail.

I flashed the stock rom with the Nexus toolkit a few weeks ago, LMY48L which was supposed to fix stagefright... So I wonder what the changelog is for this one?

I suspect you meant LMY48I (not LMY48L). If so, you are probably getting LMY48M now.
LMY48I was supposed to fix stagefright (among other bugs), but stagefright needed one more fix, which was included in LMY48M (among other bug fixes of course)

I received the update on my Nexus 9 yesterday and on my Nexus 6 and Nexus 5 today. all updates went smoothly.
So what is the latest and greatest version of the stock rom for the Verizon variant? This new M version?
How does it run with that kernel installed? Is everything faster and does games run with no issues now

Looking for a link to the latest stock ROM

Some days ago, an update was pushed to Thea (XT1072), with security patch from August 2016. The version seems to be 24.201.5, and build number is MPBS24.65-34-5. Seems like it fixes a touch issue plaguing CM ROMs for Titan/Thea, and the dev is asking for the ROM in order to fix it in CM. Can anyone provide me with a link for it?

Nope, and ended not needing it all all.
Just curious, does the new update bring Android 6.0.1? Does it worth it to flash stock only for the bootloader, I have no touch issues whatsoever. What kind of touch issues do you guys have?

I notice it with Marshmallow. Touch is less sensitive compared to Lollipop. You would flash the new stock firmware and then install CM again (if you wanted).

I see. Basically you flash the Stock > Update to latest version > Root > Put CM13 again right?
The only thing stopping me from keeping Stock is the OTA update failure with root...

Install latest stock firmware, flash custom recovery, flash CM.
If you get an OTA update prompt just install stock recovery and let it update. I'm not sure if unrooting is required.
