[Rom][2-21-12]GingerVolt Rom 2.0 w/ Blitzkrieg Kernel - LG Revolution

Hello all! Here it is GingerVolt Rom!!! It has been fully cleaned out to decrease size and to increase speed. It will continue to be a work in progress! I hope you all enjoy!!!
What is this?
This is a very lightweight rom built both for speed and stability. This rom is based off of the latest LG update to Gingerbread. It is fully deodexed, and debloated. Almost all of LG has been replaced and as time goes by, I hope to remove the rest. Swype has also been changed to the newest Beta. A few items have been replaced with AOSP versions to increase speed and decrease size. Also included is the appwidgetpicker to clean that up.

Yes, use Revotoolkit to install recovery. After installing, hit the check recovery version, it should be 4.0.0.2 or something like that. Then reboot into recovery.

if you were a good boy and have a factory stock rooted CWM backup, then you don't have to... if you don't have one of these, then it seems as if you would... although you may be able to grab cubed's stock factory rooted rom that I think is floating around in a thread... maybe

No .tot needed. Just need to grab the stocked rooted backup off the forums from cubed. Restore that, wipe data, uninstall cwm pull both updates wipe data, and internal for safe measure, then reroot using mt's root method. He has everything you need in his post.

You get a nice fancy paperweight worst case of course. 2 people have tried to go from V4 to this. Me from Revolt1.5 I bricked and never made it into the ROM itself and Beamer made it in from stock V4 and then had lots of reboots

I have backups going all the way back, but I wouldn't have one of stock recovery (making a backup of a recovery with a recovery that wasn't installed would be hard). I was involved in the original piecing together of CWR, so I have all the original partitions, but some of those copies caused bricks, and I'm not sure which ones :O

Same as with majorpay
Only think is the cubes stock restore doesn't have everything. I wiped data and cache and dalvik and it booted right up. I installed revo toolkit and go the stock recovery from there. the pulled the OTA updates. When rerooting I wiped data and the internal storage went right through once I got the right drivers.

Thank you. I finally got this to work as far as I have the Super User app installed on the phone. I thought if I had this then the phone is def rooted yet when I try to delete ATT bloat ware it still won't let me.
Is this only because its still running the factory 2.2 froyo. Will the full SU benefits be there one I flash whatever ROM he wants on Monday ?
And what is the best rom for the cap ? I have the Eris running a GB rom that I love but I'm sure this phone is different
go to the market, download titanium backup. use that to uninstall, unwanted bloat...you cannot use the native package installer/uninstaller to remove system apps.

My personal preference... Firefly.
The Gingerbread ROMs are still Beta.
ok i have to agree... firefly...
Thanks all. I don't think it's going to matter since when I reboot into recovery I do not have the option to "flash zip from sd card". I got it rooted, installed rom manager and flashed clockwork but to no avail. This all seemed to go so smoothly when I did our eris phones.
I have his "wireless tether" working and was able to delete a ton of ATT bloatware but I think he's going to stuck with the stock ATT 2.2 ota rom.

As you have already been told in this thread you need to make sure you have modified your 3e recovery to allow cwm to work.
Sent from my HTC Desire Z
Check out TRusello's signature "3e recovery fix" also after you boot into recovery from rom manager you have to "reinstall packages" twice, then you will see all the options...

you need to reinstall packages in recovery twice.
also you need the to fix 3e recovery before you can flash the cwm .zip.
look @ the stickies in the general section. there is a thread on working around 3e recovery. it contains a link to a batch script that'll fix it
there is also odin(tethered) that can replace the kernel with one that has cwm baked in
and sgs kernel flasher in the market that can do the same from the phone as long as it's rooted.
bit.ly is great...
3e fix in my sig 100 hits to-date (dirty version)
3e fix in the 3e thread 1 hit (cleaner version)

Orange UK Atrix working hacks

Got my Atrix on Friday and thought I would share the working hacks!
Root
Download Gingerbreak 1.2 APK via XDA app via your phone and run it. Root done!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044765
Webtop over HDMI
Download zip in post below... rename old files (odex and apks in system/app) to .bak and copy new files there using root explorer. Phone will loop on force close when you rename portal.apk but just take battery out and power it back on.

I would add that CWM and gingerblur / greyblur are working for me using this:
http://briefmobile.com/atrix-4g-rom-installation-guide
Guys a little help needed please.
I have a Orange UK Atix and was on the stock rom and installed Gingerblur through Tenfars CW Mod, the problem being when it had installed and I rebooted from CWM my phone is stuck in a boot loop ( the phone wont go past the moto boot logo and has the LED notification light flashing red ).
Any ideas on how to resolve this?
All help is greatly appreciated.

Gingerblur is for the Atrix 4g isn't it? Is that not slightly different hardware? Ie you've probably bricked your phone. Although guy above said he flashed it so best pm him or try a reflash and wipe.
Personally I don't see the point in risking a flash for the same os with a gingerbread theme. Theres not going to be any advantage. I only put the other hacks as they are relatively risk free and you can unroot or remove the patched webtop etc if you have any issues.

Goto the stock android recovery and do a data wipe/factory reset after that take both your SD & SIM out and power it back on, you can put back the SIM & SD after its working.

yep this should fix it, but using gingerblur over orange rom is a bad idea, different framework files etc. it should work but i wouldnt recommend it, google UOT kitchen and you can make your own gingerbread theme for the orange rom as long as your rooted
How do I go to the stock android recovery?
hold vol down while turning on, then keep pressing it until it says android recovery then press vol up, then when it shows an android logo you have to tap the bottom right corner of screen a few times to get options to show up
Works great on t-mobile stock.

[MOD] Zipalign Any ROM at Boot - Flash This CWM

I put took an init.d script from the Darky ROM and included it in this CWM update along with the zipalign tool. The script will run at boot and zipalign all apps, both system and user. As always I am not responsible for any bad stuff that might happen as a result of flashing this update...you know the drill, so please have a nandroid restore available in case something goes wrong.
What is the benefit of doing this every boot up?

It is smart and will not re-zipalign, it tracks what has been already been zipaligned. If you install new apps it will make sure they too are zipaligned. Any time you want to make sure that everything, even updated apps are zipaligned you can delete /data/zipalign.db and it will recheck everything. That file is where it tracks what has already been zipaligned.
StarBust uses this same script if I am not mistaken.

Flash the zip from cwm and then reboot. Check in /data if you have zipalign.db and zialign.log then the script has run.
Note that if you are running a custom rom it's probably already zipalign.

I will take a look at his ROM. I suspect that he has init.d support implemented differently than I did and that this is causing the init.d scripts to be run twice. What files do you see in /system/etc/init.d?
Update: So I checked his ROM...this is already part of his ROM, so no need to flash this MOD on top of Task's ROM.

[One Click]Updated!!! LG Revo All in One Pkg for Root, CWM 5.0.2.7, and Unroot

This is an All-in-One package to Root and install CWM Recovery or to UnRoot and install the stock recovery. I have spent many hours trying to modify this to be as easy as possible for all to accomplish their goals whether by modding or returning to stock.
What is This?
This is an exploit built by the Revolutionary team, that was ported to the Esteem by djrbliss, then I was able to fix permissions and install su and superuser. The exploit is not built by me, rather by the Revolutionary guys. This zip contains the proper drivers for the Revolution, all root files, and the Root&Recovery.bat file. The .bat has been modified to fix ANY of the problems people are having with root, and will make it so that CWM will stick through reboot. It installs the newest versions of the su binary and Superuser.apk. It will also install ClockWorkMod Recovery also (no need to run RevoToolkit anymore). The unroott will uninstall and delete the su binary and remove Superuser.apk. It will also remove CWM and install the stock ZV7 recovery.img. If there are any problems, just let me know.

Guys I'm trying to get back to 100% to get Gingerbread. I was able to get follow the steps from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1326347
I got the stock ROM and recovery back, I was able to search and download the first update, but I cannot find the gingerbread update.
And I still have Root and none of the programs seem to work to unroot it, they always get stuck at psneuter or whatever.
I ran this program and it removed root but during the process it showed a lot of "Failed"s
Still cannot find the Gingerbread update under "about phone---->software update---->check new. Says no update available. Anyone help me out?

Got it working!! Thanks guys woohoooooo GingerVolt Madness!
I just wanted to see what i might be doing wrong...
I can't get the root.bat to recognize the device, I have uninstalled the drivers and reinstalled, but still am not able to see device ( I can see drives if I set to mass storage, so I know I am connected)
The Revo is brand new out of the box from VZW and froyo ver 2.2.2. Do I need to be on a different OS ver. to get this to work ?
Thanks in advance.

It should work on 2.2, but 2.3 is out, so I would try to get the update first.
Make sure USB debugging is enabled.

[Q] Help with gingervolt 2.0

Hello, I dont know where the help forums are for the lg revolution and it wont let me post for some odd reason so hopefully here, i can ask for help, and not get banned x3.
So im tring to flash gingervolt 2.0 and well, it's not working. Ive tried updating from gingervolt 1.3, adding the 2.1 version of blitzkrieg and a theme. But the problem here is. It just goes to the LG screen then turns off and vibrates again going to the same screen. When i get very lucky it boots into the boot animation and into the device. But some parts freeze if i try to do something and sometimes the boot animation freezes. If anyone knows about this problem or think they can help. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Also i don't want to use stock or gingervolt 1.3, i think 2.09 is so much faster so i'm not wanting to be recommended on another version or another Rom. Thanks.
Restore your back up and try re downloading and trying again

Did you wipe data before flashing 2.0? Just trying to cover the bases

Start over from stock GB would be your best bet.
Sent from my VS910 4G using XDA App
Yes i wiped data. I followed all of the directions. Also i dont like stock at all, are you saying i should try from that. I did that to.
I agree that going back to stock GB would probably be the best solution. Then just start over from scratch
i'm running gingervolt 1.3 and didnt even realize the was a 2.0 for it....lol....
could someone post a link? or point me in the right direction?
Much Appreciated

I didn't wipe data before flashing. But it's most likely better off to do it like Kane said and also starting from a Stock GB then flashing GV 2.0
Hi all,
I'm new here, and couldn't find any references to this specific problem, but this thread appears to be vaguely related. I'm GV 1.3 and just tired to update to 2.0. CWM makes it appear as though the update worked, but when I restart the phone, Settings --> About Phone still shows it's on GV 1.3. I tried the update twice; the first time, I chose "Reboot phone" from the CWM menu after installation, and the second time, I powered down. Same result both time.
Per the instructions, I did NOT wipe data, since I was already on GV 1.3.
Any ideas/suggestions?
Thanks!

Thanks spc hicks09
after reading previous posts I was suddenly curious why my revo said 1.3 when it should have said 2.0

You should be fine. The name was not changed in the file. There are many posts about in the gv 2.0 thread.

Oh, that might explain a lot then. Other than the build number, is there any indication that I'm on 2.0 now? The animated startup graphic is the same as it was before.

If you can overclock without flashing the kernel then you're good. 1.3 didn't have the kernel implemented.

I wouldn't know how to overclock my phone if it smacked me in the face...
I was having some trouble with Bluetooth, so I went back to GV 1.3 and checked the build number. When that didn't help and I ended up having to factory reset my phone to get BT working again, I went back to GV 2.0 again, and noticed a different kernel build number. I guess that's one way to tell that I'm on 2.0. I can't tell any difference in how it works otherwise, though.

Battery problems
Has anyone else had any problems with the battery dying fast after switching to gingervolt 2.0? Since updating from gingervolt 1.3 to 2.0 my battery has been dying significantly faster (from 100% at 7:30am to 20% at 9:30pm with hardly any use and yes I have the extended battery). I am using rom toolbox and have the cpu set to Max: 1305Mhz and Min: 576Mhz with the governor set on smoothass (this was also set on 1.3 with no issues). My phone also will occasionally freeze and reboot at random times. I also noticed that it seems to lag when opening certain apps. Verizon tried to push an update to my phone which thankfully did not go through but i was able to go into the system files and change the system/lib/libme_main.so and change it to system/lib/libme_main.so.bak. That seemed to stop the update from trying to install. I also went to etc/security/otacerts.zip and added .bak to the end. Doing this accomplished nothing and now it wont allow me to remove the .bak from the end of the file. I love gingervolt 2.0 when it is working properly and hope I can get it to run smoothly. If anyone has any suggestions please share.
