[Q] Upgrading to CM7 - LG Thrill 4G

Hello,
Was wondering if I need to do anything extra before flashing CM7 nightly through CWM. My Thrill is on Baseband Version L6260_MODEM_SIC_01.1042.00 and the Kernel is 2.6.35.7. Software Version V10E-AUG-10-2011. Can I just backup, factory reset, and flash, or do I need to flash anything else first?
Thanks for any help.

Yep. Nandroid backup your whole phone then flash. Wipe data afterwards.

He/She's on a Froyo baseband.
If you are on a Froyo baseband, use the P925 version of CyanogenMod 7.
If you are on a Gingerbread baseband, use the P920 version of CyanogenMod 7.

I ended up going with Thriller instead because I wanted to keep the 3D framework. I'm undecided if I want to update to the official Gingerbread or not. Would it be a performance/battery life improvement over Thriller? If so, can I just run LG Updater straight from Thriller, or do I have to return to stock first?

If you are on v20p try this cm7.2 rom http://goo.gl/9D0Sy

what i would do in your case is go to the develpoment section and either flash a v20L official gingerbread update (kdz file, you will find an explanation thread how to flash it in there) or download an official froyo rom from original firmware section.
as far as i know you cant flash roms from PC, only basebands/ official updates and so. you need to flash roms through clockworkmod recovery.
concerning CM7 i use nightly builds. they are constantly updated with new stuff/ fixes etc, so its the very latest version of the rom. experimental mod is something you should not care about . and a stable build is basically a nightly that has been picked as a stable build.
cheers

don't use smartflash, it will format you entire data (sdcard internal). better use KDZ since it won't erase you data only system

Want to update ics

Yes i want to update to ICS. I have previously tried but ended in bootloop.
My current configuration is.
Firmware: 2.3.5
Baseband 19000XXJVT
Kernel: 2.6.35.7-19000XXJVT-CL617736
[email protected] #Semaphore_1.9.1bm
Can i just go into CWM and install
It depends which ICS Rom you want to use, theres Team Hacksung's ICS Port or One Cosmic's, imo TeamHacksungs one is the better choice, its easier to flash and to me, its slightly faster and more things in the Rom are working, if you want to flash team HackSung's one then just create a backup and flash over your current Rom if you want to use One Cosmics port, then you need to flash it over a Cyanogen Mod base Rom, simply flash a CM7 Rom, factory wipe, then flash the ICS Rom over it

Flashing HP kernel

Hi,
First of all I have to say I'm really a noob in flashing etc, but I'm trying to learn
I am interested in flashing the horsepower kernel.
I read in the Hp thread that it is only compatible with V20 l/j/g/i/c/e.
I check on my phone and I have V20m...
Is that going to be an issue ? I'm not interested in flashing a custom rom, I just want the extra performance So I'd rather keep the stock rom
And I also have a few questions about the kernel itself. Are there any downsides (apps that won't work, ...)? If ICS is released for the P990, can I just update or do I have to flash the original stock kernel back ? I also read of people that had troubles with baseband, is that something that is kernelrelated of romrelated ?
thx
Just flash the kernel and see what happens
If it doesnt work, restore your backup you made in recovery before you flashed
I've seen people complain that they can't play games like PES2012 with certain kernels.
I think when ICS comes out you can update regardless of what kernel you are using. From my understanding when you flash a rom you overwrite kernel and BB, so if you want a different kernel and BB you have to change that after you flash a rom, but you'll have to confirm this, I'm not sure this is accurate.

The ROMs which have Kernel built in....but then you can also use custom kernels which are used to optimize the performance of the device...and ROM flashing does not overwrite any BB....but yes...you have to flash through Smartflash method for changing a BB. Changing a BB will wipe the data for sure....but then after the flashing ROM you also need to change the RIL accordingly....
If you have the wrong baseband, can't you just flash the baseband that worked on the stock rom ?

According to Sreeprajay flashing a kernel will not change your BB, so you will keep stock BB.

you are right....else i would just flash a kernel for the ROM and jump to different BB for different ROMs....unfortunately it does not..... ;(
testing ROMs will become an exciting game...just a few mins
Hp Kernel
[SuperSonic]*[April-05]*[CM9-ICS KERNEL][RC1-R] Horse Power 2x ICS RC1-R [OTF
I've installed that kernel and I run Nova HD Rebuild 1.0.3, the problem is after I reboot it shows my baseband is unknown. What went wrong? Someone help?

[Q] How to from -Stock Froyo- to -CM7-

Hi guys, just bought an O2X yesterday and I want to be sure of the steps on how to take my Froyo to CM7 or any other GB for that matter, so here's what I think it should be done:
1.- Root the phone (seems Gingerbreak works on this phone with froyo?)
2.- Install CWM (Can install from ROM manager unless I wanna be able to flash from internal memory in which case I should install the modded vesion?)
3.-Change baseband?? (this is my biggest concern, I'm on 1035.21)
4.- Flash rom + gapps if needed
Please guys if you can confirm my thoughts on all the 4 steps it'd be much appreciated
_BONUS QUESTION_
Is the hdmi and camera working completely or is the stock froyo better on those aspects, as I don't see a thread for official CM7 I'm guessing I should just download from download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=p990 ?
Thanks again.

You are almost right there m friend.
There is an unofficial CM7 thread out there by Temasek and MisjudgedTwat....it is more than what you can ever see.For CM7 ROMs, choose Kernels by Temasek or by MisjudgedTwat or by Vadonka.
If you are looking at Stock based ROMs, then go for DjangoManouche1.3 beta16. Stock based ROMs + HP or Gueste Kernels.
for the Baseband,you have to come out with the full version number ...what you have mentioned is not complete.Try V20Q for the BB with V10 series RIL...Normally, CM7 comes with a RIL which is enough. Install GetRIL app from the play store and you can change RIL if it is not compatible. For the Stock based ROMs, you can flash the V20Q Base band + v20Q RIL(both are 725 stuff)

Thanks a lot for taking the time to answer. Now the baseband thing got me a little confused, if I go for official CM7 which will come with a RIL I'd have to install a matching baseband. Can I do that afterwards or do I have to change the baseband first?. I remember with my O1 I flashed a rom and got no service because I was on wrong bb, and flashing the bb fixed it. I just wanna be sure it's fixeable if I mess up
btw.

Look at this thread...it has all the BB related things.You can flash the BB which is V20Q which is the latest for O2X (your choice as it is the service provider,region,device and so on)and this is the best as you will see in the thread which has a poll. you can then flash the ROM with the three wipes...dalvik,user data and cache.Dont forget to backup your apps and data with Titanium Backup pro or any other app.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1658047
you can then use the GetRIL app to choose your RIL...which is normally with the ROM.Best way would be flash the BB and then flash the ROM(to save time). Flashing the BB will wipe the complete data. Take a backup through CWM before.even if ou have an issues with wifi,mobile data 3G, dont worry to choose the correct RIL and reboot.
if you have any issues, wipe the three wipes and reflash the ROM.normally, you wont have any issues....just do it...
I am only trying to help...dont blame me for bricking ur phone...follow instructions and we all have a great device...YOU WILL TOO

Thanks again man, I've a better idea now. I'll keep using my phone with stock rom for a week to have something to compare to and then go crazy trying roms
I know everything I do with my phone is my full responsibility so no worries there.
Thanks!

AcidHazard Rom

Have a quick question...I'm currently updated to the 4.3 Kitchen and I've tried to flash this rom three different times on my thrill p925...I'm currently rooted with CWM recovery, running 2.3.5, LGp925-v20p, 2.6.35.7+ Kernel....after I build my ROM and reboot and flash it works great except I don't have any service or network...I'm choosing the Kernel for the v20p option when building the ROM so I guess it's included in the ROM but I've even flashed it separately after installing the ROM to see if that would work and still the same issue...any help would be awesome! thanks!
