If you let me borrow your crystal ball and tarot cards I could tell you for sure. We need a non-corrupted kernel source before anything. Motorola released the RAZR i source as a corrupted tar.gz no one can open. Very nice of them to mock us

hem..now you have sources.. so you can give us cm9? Or even better, cm10?

Finding someone who can unpack and repack the boot image. It's different from any android boot image before, that we've had access too from my knowledge. You can grab a stock image and and insecured image of it in my Root utility.

....that is a themed gingerbread rom not the real icecream.... how can they base a rom on ICS 4.0 before the src is released....
Same way that the Nexus S has got an ICS ROM.

Interesting. Time to see if 'fastboot flash system' will work.
Guess if the OTA doesn't boot, then the .imgs wont either.
Edit: Argh, slow download. Probably wont have time for a while either then. Still, will give it a shot sometime tonight unless I'm beaten to it.
Edit 2: fastboot fail
Code:
sending 'system' (189563 KB)... FAILED (data transfer failure (Too many links))
Meh.

Apparently nothing
Someone compiled it, but it does not seem to be a valid image and can't be flashed.
no-one tried flashing it with NVFlash? download the NVFlash from modaco, replace boot.img and system.img with those ICS ones above and maybe that would work? would try myself but I got my phone running sweet at the min and dont want to fudge it up
It seems not all sources have yet been fully released and Google won't release the rest until december. So, I think we'll have to wait a lot longer, I'd say somewhere around June-July to get something usable.

Kernel Source Code

I'm not sure if anyone seen this but opensource.motorola.com posted the D4's kernel.
Here is the link:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/droid4.motorola/files/DROID4_VZW/
Hopefully this might help us in the long run.
i dont think this will help us unlock the bootloader, but it should make the ROMs that hashcode is working on run more smoothly
Right on, thanks for the heads up! Been fiddling with Jelly Bean, patching together bits and pieces from the RAZR sources that were released not too long ago; obviously this is more appropriate.
Not to mention getting proper overclocking kernel modules working...
I wonder if this will help in building a custom kexec kernel?

I asked over there for both, but they didn't say. I'm going to assume GB for right this second, since it says DR4_M1-215. Hopefully if it's only GB that we can get the ICS Kernel soon.

I would try to port the 3.0 kernel on SGM

But before starting with Kernel v3, I'd suggest be comfortable with those commands and compile existing 2.6.35 kernels without modifications and later with modifications. In that way, you could get more in touch with Kernel development.
Maybe these guides will help for reference :

Can I take cm10.1's 07/07 kernel and flash it via CWM?

I heard that cm10.1's 07/07 kernel has no whitescreens. I am using a newer version of cm10.1 . Can I flash 07/07 kernel on its own via CWM? If yes, how can I make it flashable? Thanks in advance.

I mean, there should be a stable ROM with everything working. Maybe not the latest release but it would be stable. I know all ROMs are stable for your phone since you don't have WS or mount problem, but there's no rom for my phone that won't malfunction.

Holy **** dude, your attitude. Everybody in this forum loves you cuz you're the only developer this ****ty phone has but you keep acting like a douche, throwing a tandrum to whoever dares to mention WS or sd card mount problem or even something that has been stated before. We are noobs, we're trying to learn, this place's like a school to us. XDA ain't your own business, we're members of XDA as well. Did I even ask you to do something for me? Did I even post to your github or anything like this? No, cuz I know that douchebags like you better leave 'em alone.
but there's no rom for my phone that won't malfunction.

Sorry, but you have clearly misunderstood the whole point of XDA. Most of the developers here (including me) do this as a hobby. I make this ROM for myself and then I share with anyone else. I am not going to do something, in this case fix bugs I have never experienced nor can reproduce, just because something is not working on your device. Douches are people who constantly spam and whine about things. Use GB and be happy.

Ok kiddo
You know, you should really take a chill pill....TheWisp is trying to do something for free here..i don't think you really understand the "free" part...myself, i couldn't spare the time to learn to develop for Android, much less fix bugs and try to create a stable rom without up-to-date blobs ( which by the way is really harder than simply porting cm to a certain device which already has jb or a variation of it)...if you really want something 100% stable go for stock (tough good luck with random crashes)..if you want something 97% stable go for cm10 or cm10.1 (i find 30/06/2013 cm10.1 to be one of the smoothest and stable of all the cm10.1 builds), and if you want something 95% stable go for cm11(the one i have right now)...you should really stop complaining, and instead of being part of the problem, start learning to develop and be a part of the solution (if developing is for you). Peace!

Lollipop for the Optimus 2x

Welcome to the official thread for the Lollipop roms for our Optimus 2x
As to start, this thread is exclusively for the developers who are interessted/working on on the Lollipop ports for our Optimus 2x
We had alredy some build like the OmniRom , CM12 and even ParanoidAndroid.
This thread is exclusively for discussions for the developers and for the testers to test the new made roms so I will update the links as the roms get made. So I am only posting here the links of the latest version, to get the versions from the past you wil need to browse throught this thread
Update 05/6/2016
Gucky did it again! New build for CyanogenMod 12.1 is up, and now with fixed camera! When I get the full list of working features and bugs, I will upload it here. Thank you Gucky for your massive help and contribution to this community. This device is very old after all, and you still find the time to tinker on it. No words really. Respect!
CM12.1 : https://sourceforge.net/projects/lg...cm-12.1-20160531-UNOFFICIAL-p990.zip/download
WARNING the Rom is still not stable, but we are close!
ParanoidAndroid: https://s.basketbuild.com/devs/Puri/p990/AOSPA(lollipop)
Take in mind that all these roms are unstable besides the CM12 rom,but it still has some major bugs which we as a group will fix.
As in all of this, stay tuned for updates
Good job my friend
Thank you very much. I'm downloading right now. It would be useful, if you could upload your (Lokal) Manifest, too. So we are able to re- build the rom with the necessary changes.
Looking forward!
Credits goes to you!

TheMysteryouse said:
Hello everyone.As you might know me from some threads where i comment some stuff.Anyways, since Lollipop was announced i was obssesed with it and my wish was that i would be the first one to make the version availble for our device.
Well i kinda did it....KINDA of course but we need some help if we wanna make it work.I call ALL of the developers for our device to work together to make it work.We are so close to get it fully booting.I made it boot to the animation and now where the help comes in use.We need some developers who can enable ADB on our device in the bootanimation.TO be honest i dont really know anything about sources and that stuff but i know some things.With the help of @tonyp and @timduru which I am the most thankfull of that gave me hope to make this.So here we go!
WARNING!!!
ONLY FOR DEVELOPERS
No one should download and flash this rom because you will get stuck in the bootanimation and will need to install previouse rom again and install everything over...blah blah blah.
Also the link to the rom is here ----> https://www.dropbox.com/s/fwhg08ux7qhtgsh/5.0 test.zip?dl=0
So if someone gets it working, please pm me in the progress. Cheers

I can be your tester my phone got a battery problem so im having fun with flashing roms
I will try to exchange the updater script from my build with yours.
Lets see if I can flash mine.
And your your problem: I think there are one or more patches that we maybe need, witch timduru wont need because of the tegra3 hardware. (maybe some patch for our old egl hardware)

Well, it might be that he used KatKiss from timduru for the TF101 which has a Tegra 2, but still our phone uses the Tegra 2 AP20H, while the TF101 uses Tegra 2 T20. Small difference in the chipset, but still a difference. Easiest would be to port from the Galaxy R or Captivate Glide, but they too struggle with Lollipop over in their forum. Anyway, TheMysteryouse used timduru's AOSP rom, so maybe it would be easier building the whole thing from the demo CM12 sources available.

Nope, this rom has NOTHING to do with the tegra 3 rom.I used the rom for TF101 tablet which is tegra 2 but had a cmall chipset difference.So yeah I am still trying to do some things like searching the framework sources from tony to see if he has a code in the build.prop which directly enables ADB from the boot, but cant really find it.Anyways try your best and so the others.Cheers
Hi guys, after some testings I could get booting to finish. There are some errors left. But I will work further this evening and upload the rom afterwards. Think this will remain a test build for some time, till Tony or DJ can fix the errors.
Stay tuned!
Any video or screenshot? xD
Sorry for nob request, but working well or not, its great to our comunity
p.s. if need tester in future, you, TheMysteryouse or DJNoXD.

Awesome news buddy! Lollipop on first power dual core android device! Switch to 1+ One as a primary phone for some reason but I will continue to follow and supporto you!
That is great!!! ))))))))
Ok. I have to go one step back. The rom is not ready for the testers and I'm too tired to test more. For those, who want to repeat my steps or want to finish...
I replaced the files in Mystery's rom with my own Kitkat ones. The first half, than the second. Now I could get it to finish the booting process. This steps I went on and on. So I could reduce the problem to the framework-files in "system". If you replace all of them, it boots up with some error messages.
I think we have to reduce the 40 files inside more and more to find the reason for the bootloop.
All the best to you,my friends!
Damm this is great a device from 2010 receives android L. 4years later. If I can borrow the old optimus 2x from my father then I could also look into the problems if it's not booting yet then. Till then continue your work.
