Hey guys
Hope you can help me out here, getting really annoyed
my optimus 2x lost all connection to the mobile network so thought it would be a good time to upgrade.
And so i did to this rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1264721
before i installed the rom i updated my BB to 1035.21_20110725
Installation went smoothly (after 2 hours of trying and i remembered that i had forgot to convert to ext3)
Everything seemed fantastic. Keyword here is SEEMED.
MY textmessages (sms) are ****ed, sometimes i get messages from ppl 3-4 hours AFTER they sent them, and ppl sometimes recieve 2-3-4 of the same message from me.
The phone part can sometimes lock up, the signal looks good but when i try to call it never gets a line out or something like it.
Then i tried to update my RIL just in case, updated it to 0725 (v20c europe leaked gingerbread) using LG Getril app, hoping that might help. Thought it did, but alas, NO!
So guys, i really need some help here, im completely lost, annoyed and close to throwing a fit over this piece of crap phone. Never buying LG again thats for sure.
Hope you guys can help me getting this to work.
Sincerely Kim

This is more than likely a problem with your provider, not your phone.
To make absolute sure, you should smartflash back to a completely stock, stable version like 10D and see what happens to your SMSs then.
Nothing else can be done until you test it under stable conditions.
I dont think the problem is with the provider, but i have indeed tested like you said.
Flashed 622 BB and installed modaco FR19 2.2 rom
NO problems at all now.
Very weird.

Hi everybody,
I think i got an unique GPS problem in my Captivate,
The thing is, when ever i starting GPS program (GPStest, GPSstatus, AngryGPS...) the GPS symbol in the status line flashing for 3 second and disappeared... no signal and not even a weak satellite. Nothing. The GPStest keep showing clear windows. I tried every trick i could fine, every server, lots of program, and nothing seems to make this phone to find a single satellite.
When i do the tests with AngryGPS/LBST, the test just doesnt process to anywhere(keep showing me Starting test... or 0/30.. Weird!)
Required data:
I am on Europe.
The phone is unlocked At&t.
Firmware - original one(stock rom)
Kernel - 2.6.29 jetaek lee sep-11
Build - ECLAIR
Basebnd - I897UCJF6
Please, this problem is driving me crazy... the one of my main used pitcher in my previous phone..!
Thanks In Advance!
You will never have working GPS running that firmware version.

miztaken1312 is right, you'll be hard pressed to get any kind of GPS using JF6. You'll need to go to a custom ROM to get usable GPS. I can't speak for the other ROM's out there but I've had great success with Phoenix(Froyo 2.2) and Mosaic(Gingerbread 2.3)
Ok, i also tried to upgrade to GB 2.3.4 PilotXrom 3.5, and still, the same problem, no GPS signal at all, tests in AngryGps stopped 3 seconds after its start. Could it be a hardware damage? What other Rom should i try? Froyo one?
Turn your phone off and remove the battery. Tell us what the build number is. It will be 4 digits starting with a 10.

Definitely not a unique problem. I had a 1007 with gps like that. I ended up exchanging it for an 1106 and now my gps is prefect no natter what I flash. Your problem is hardware.

Yep, 1007 is your problem. I had one as well and traded it in for a refurbed 1011. However if yours is a refurbed 1007 then it shouldn't be a hardware issue.

Come on, you r in an international forum! Use English, please.

Right, it was late and I thought I was in my german pocket pc forum In short:
Got a new LGOS, it hung in hardreset with "S/W Upgrade". Found out if I deactivate account syncing, it would proceed, so one issue gone.
Second, I started GetRIL out of curiosity on the rooted standard LGOS ... it reported a bad match. On a new 2.3.4 LGOS. I wondered why?
Maybe the BaseBand not upgraded... normaly it shoud be at least 0725 (and matching RIL also 0725 (v20l) )
EDIT: Silly me ... busybox was not installed ... now it looks quite a bit better
Hi everybody!
I see here a lot of people from Europe but I'm in Canada and hope for some help.
I just got LG o2x and trying to use it with cheap data plan in Ontario through 7/11 Speakout.
First problem - they filter traffic so I have to use proxy. And even then phone is really slow and sometimes even market has to be reloaded couple times... My connection drops sometimes inside the factory I work in and then doesn't pick up... I guess you know.
I've read about people saying that this phone has great hardware but poor software
I already rooted my phone (to get autoproxy running).
Now I need to put custom ROM and kernel...
That's where it gets confusing. I have Barnes&Nobles Nook Color with CM7.1 on it. And I like it. Also I have Acer A500 with stock HC3.2. But I'm still dummy in Android
From what I understand I can put CM7.1 (Thanatos2x v5.1 or Temasek's Kang), MoDaCo. Right? Any other suggestions? But then there is tonns of kernels... How to choose? I just need basic features to surf net and create hot spot for my kids tablets
And another question is BASEBANDS. What are they and should I change it or not? I'm in Canada but getRIL says I have:
RIL 0725 (V20I, Italy)
Baseband 1035.21_20110725.
Thanks for any suggestions or pointing to right direction!
Aleks
You can flash CM7 temasek's KANG on your phone (link in sig)
A kernel I would recommend you to use is vadonkas ETaNa Kernel. (link in sig) It's a great kernel with good performance and battery life.
You don't necessarily have to change your baseband. Only when you really have problems with signal or call quality. A baseband is more or less a driver which regulates signal etc. Changing your BB requires a full wipe, therefore I wouldn't recommend it. If you do have bad signal, you can mostly solve this problem by installing a matching RIL with your BB. GetRIL app will tell you which ones match and which one don't. If this doesn't help, then you should change your BB.
Or, you can read a bit and not spam the fora..
Hi, I recently updated my phone's baseband to 1035.21_201111120, with RIL 1120(V20I), and ever since that I noticed I can no longer connect to my 3G network.I tried downgrading my baseband to 0823 but I still cannot connect.
Does anybody know what is the best baseband and/or RIL for the Optimus 2x?
I'm in Mexico and the phone's with the carrier Telcel.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks.
Update
I've since downgraded my baseband to 1035.21_20110606 with matching RIL 0606, and I still cannot connect to 3G networks or have a data connection in my phone, I will give 0823 a try now.
Strange that you cant connect to 3g.
I changed a lot of bb, and for now am using 0218 because i heard somewhere that the guy that is making cm7 for our phone is using the same bb.
And i have no such trouble as you do, in fact i have a better signal and better battery usage.
Sorry for my spelling hope you understood me.

Guys,
CM7 ROMs recommend 218 BB. Try changing your BB to 725V20Q or BB V20L/M. It works very well...if you are on CM7 or CM9ICS, then the BB are recommended by the Developers in their posts...search and read that.
No 3G is normally the cause of unsuited BB and RIL combo....also install the GetRIL app from market and check for the suited/recommended RIL for your BB.
I'm currently running baseband 0823 with RIL 0823 V21b, and everything works well except for 3G, but I just found out it's my carrier who's blocking data connections on my line, a quick visit to the customer support center should fix that!
All this time thinking it was a baseband/RIL problem!
At least I found out before doing something more drastic.

Sorry had to reply, its rare to see Telcel + Optimus 2X in these forums... I tried BB0824 and doesn't work with 3G, I didn't tried BB0823 because I though it was from China or Singapore (SU660)... I'm right now in BB0725 and 3G works really fast, it only lags when you don't use it for hours then use it again it takes like 5 seconds to "wake up"... but I guess that's a power saving feature.

I think my battery lasted a bit more on 0823. Maybe it was just my imagination
I've found 3G works fine on 0823, didn't test it on 0725 tough, maybe I'll get to that one of this days.
Thanks!

My phone didn't see my wifi router's ssid until I changed the wifi channel in the router settings from 14 to something else. At least channels 3 and 6 work for me. Of course I'm not sure your problem is also wifi channel related...
has anyone installed the new software for GT-I9305
and has anyone had any problems?
my phone is about 2 months ols
international version ( grey import)
Android 4.1.1
reason i ask is my friend and a few ppl we know have upgraded software on I9300 and now their phones are very very slow, like 5 seconds to open messages everytime.
so ive donwloaded the new software (OTA pushed), but i want to make sure its not buggy before i let it install.
bit the bullet and did it
didnt change to 4.1.2
not really sure what the changes are yet
responsiveness seems to be same as before, so thats a relief
