Hi, new to android. new to p990 (*just brought one)
have modded fones b4. used to be a geek on (modmymoto.com) makin monsterpacks and firmware hackin etc on v3x's.
anway
i talked to a professional today about the X2
he said dont ROOT it because of some voltage glitches with will damage the cpu eventually, also. not to install android 4.0 until it comes out from LG for my country.
I thought hmm well . I will find the community and talk to them
WHAT SAY YOU P990 USERS.
anyone had problems once rooted?
anyone had problems installing 4.0 (is it faster and i hear 30% more batt life?)
any glitches. whos bricked there fone?
Thanks for your interest/attention.
Look forward to your advice(s)
No problems here
Only thing with ICS ROMs (cm9) is there is NO HW acceleration yet... Means you can't video record with stock camera. Use a app called Camera Illuision. And for playing videos use MX Player.
Battery life, hm.. The same really. Try to match RIL and BB (use GetRIL from Google Play), try differents kernels..
Hi!
There are no disadvantages by rooting your phone I believe, at least I haven't encountered any...
As far as I know, there are also no voltage glitches on our phone which can harm the CPU. Tegra 2 is actually quite good, only their support sucks...
But, you need to know that once you want to undervolt your CPU, you can only undervolt to the minimum of 770 mV. The Tegra CPU, won't go any lower than that. I mean, you can UV lower, but it won't have any effect... , so 770 mV is the minimum.
Also, if I were you, I wouldn't wait for the official LG release of ICS, because that might take months before it is eventually released, just like Gingerbread. LG and NVIDIA are to blame for this. They are responsible for the delayed release date, because of their poor support.
k. so from what i gather. just root it. stay on 2.3.4?
i dont what to substute " acess to camera facilities and playback facilities" with other apps etc. (work arounds_) i know where this leads.. lol. its HELL!
so having stock P990 rooted is pretty much sufice to do all the major "should i say" hax.. modern... 4.0 is still bad?

Run a root test at the end..

Easiest way to test, install Titanium Backup, which you will need to backup your apps anyway for when you start flashing custom ROM's
One very good reason to flash a custom ROM, I think you only get gtalk with video on android 2.3.7, so that for me is a very good reason not to stay on stock, apart from the better performance, smoothness, battery life, etc!
im on 2.3.4 just got the fone. dont care about whats on it. wont bother backing up.
unless i need to backup the firmware right?
ill get superuser. thanks
If you've really just got the phone then I wouldn't recommend doing any warranty voiding activities.
If you search around this forum you will find a testimonial from an user that got a faulty equipment, sent the phone once for repair, checked the IMEI and it was still the same phone, se he sent the phone again and the second time around he got a different phone (different IMEI) and the phone was perfect.
So why not taking the time to make sure everything is working properly? (GPS, Wi-Fi, radio, etc...)
Titanium Backup is still a good app to check if you have root though, even if you don't want to backup anything.
Or get the app ROM Manager, to install CMW (ClockWorkRecovery), for flashing customs ROMs..

The professional is definitely not a professional lol.
Root, install cwm with ROM manager, and run happily Ics.
thanks alot guys.
ok well ive instaled 5 (games + apps) so far.
skype,angry birds,nfs,etc and nothing has failed.
using ASTRA. to filemanage.
so its probably rooted. i will test "root test" in a minute. just busying recording for my band and partying (its my birthday) flat out.
ill post back soon
btw.
so android 4.0 is not ICS yet? and thats why the vid recording etc is not working properly or is that just certain 4.0's that ppl have made?

Android 4 IS ICS.. But Nvidia haven't released the Tegra2 drivers yet, and will probably don't do it before LG release a official ICS to the phone..

oh i get you now. makes sense. not signed drivers. so the other dependant software/hardware wont operate its like um. that on motorola codegroups also. some of them had the no cert codegroups mixed and the flex/flash/seem edits you had issues with some russian firmwares that had the codegroups of other fw's that had NO RSA. so you couldnt use certain drms and installs (native intergrated mods) and (additional mods like itunes etc) into the fone because of RSA.
so it was up to the communities to find RSA removed codegroups and compile fw's from them.
is it similar to this?
Don't know
But cm9 works for daily use, for me

Hi,
There are few users(including myself) who have continuously been facing the problem of buggy touchscreen across various ROM's.
issue: Buggy touchscreen, mistype, multitouch
Note: This problem is specific to very few users and specially on OC kernel.
I would like to request all those who are facing this kind of problem to discuss it and arrive at the feasible solution.
TIA.

i hv a sweaty hands , when my hands is sweating , the sweat left on the screen so there's one touch , so when my finger touch another place , there's another touch
so i always have problem in gaming when i'm sweating
if ur hands are like mine, it's not the screen problem but ur hands
i have the same problem. and it is not the fault of sweaty hand... believe me.
wrong section mate.
use non-OC kernel.
Yes. I have this problem! All roms using Ketut's kernel have this problem for me!! I do not over-clock above 800 Mhz and still have this problem!!
This makes typing, panning and pinch to zoom impossible. So, I always revert to stock rom or a rom which does not use Ketut's kernel.
I then experimented with the stock rom by flashing Cf-root kernel by ketut over DDKQ8. Then, the touch became buggy and there were wrong touches. I have discussed about this problem with many people and they say everything is fine and it is my fault. But this is the problem with ketut's kernel and I am damn sure as I have faced this issue in all roms using that kernel(CM7 by FAT, SGSII themed rom, and even stock rom after kernel patch is applied!)
This is a serious issue!!
BTW, please use the general thread for such posts!!

Be Kind everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle
It's mostly Kernel related.
For stock roms, try CF-ROOT B82-ex. I dont face any touch issue on this kernel (but on B83 and B84 i have problem)
For CyanogenMod roms, try Zimage Mod Kernel, or Skynet's kernel..

thnx every one for discussing it as it was specific to very users.
There is one thing that its not just OC issue bcz usually its all fine on CM9 by Maclaw.
And yep also on official CM 7.2 there is no touchscreen issue.
i am currently using Miracle V4 + Zimage Kernel...and it working smoothly without any problem.
I also face this problem since the very beginning.
I agree, this is a kernel problem, mayne mixed with hardware specification (as only few users face this issue).
So people, this is not because you do not face this problem that you have to laugh about it.
Better to try to find a solution...
My last try was the last official Cm by Coolia. Still face the problem, but very less. Zimage was also a great solution.
Skynet kernel is also good (no random touch), but i found an issue with the compass on that kernel.
I really think this is Kernel related. And please note that:
- Random touch always occurs on the lower left corner of the screen...
- The problem is heavy on Oc kernel (I mean it's even impossible to type your pin code correctly when you start your device!)
- But it also happens with non oc kernel...
- Last thing: if you underclock the cpu around 600mhz, the problem dossapear. So maybe it's related to high frequency only...
Maybe it's cpu and kernel related then... As I guess there is different version of the phone.
Hope we find a great kernel solving this problems....

Well guys using all ROM's based on ketut's b83/b84 and never had any touch screen issues. Can the baseband affect it in anyway?
Don't know, but i tried different baseband from different country and the problem still the same...
The problem is really related to custom roms, or customs kernel at least, as there is no such problem with stock rom.
Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda premium
hmmm well as so many users are saying, surely it's due to kernel. But i think this issue never arose for users like me though it's a major issue as buggy touch screen may lead to wrong phone operation and i guess one will like to install a ROM with that problem. I hope the devs will find any solution.
So devs, any solution?

Stock? Bricked? Xenon? They seem a bit outdated and people seem to be having some issues in the thread, should I stick to the one that comes with CM9?
I have never used a different kernel. I dont see the point when we can already overclock the stock one and it runs super smooth already.

For more smooth experience gpu overclocking its more important than CPU overclocking!
Sowp-1984 said in rootzwiki.com 25/6:I have not disappeared.
Real life has a way of getting between the things you wanna do and have to do, that's why I had a little kernel dev pause, but I am back since a week as the Sensation kernels show you. The touchpad is 2nd on my TODO list, the OneX is next up.
That would be great, for some reason Every rom is always at some point randomly causing reboots, no overclock
Can't find out why

Hello everyone, as the title suggests if only Sammy released JB for my phone. I love the look and feel of it on the S3 but just dont like the phone, its too big and bulky IMHO. I am eagerly waiting for the S4.
Anyway, the reason for the post, i have been using CM10 on my I9000 for the last couple of weeks, i actually love it ands it actually pretty stable but and its a BIG BUT the battery drain finally killed the last remnants of patience i had with it. 12-15hrs on one battery charge is just not satisfactory.....so ive gone back to stock GB 2.3.6 and already the battery life has dramatically increased. Is this a firmware issue or poor hardware I wonder.
In anycase i would like JB back on this phone but I would like at least the same battery performance as GB, so my question really is about which JB ROM i could use?
Anyone got any ideas, recommendations or rom-avoidance advice? Anything would be helpful and much appreciated.
Thankyou!
G.
Use a different modem, and try a tweakable kernel like Semaphore. Also install betterbatterystats. That will tell you what's keeping your phone awake. I get two days out of my worn out two year old battery on the latest CM10 with low to medium use. Back on ICS, before I changed the modem, a RILJ wakelock would keep it awake pretty much all the time and I had about 12-15 hours of battery life. I'd rather Samsung stay as far away from software development as possible because nothing they have ever done in that department has been even remotely usable.
I also wish Samsung would release official JB for the I9000, but I'm afraid it's never gonna happen. They have left the I9000 behind it seems, and I think Gingerbread 2.3.6 was the last ever official update. It's custom ROM's from now on for the Galaxy S.
I wish i could fly.

1. are you suggesting you can change the modem - how on earth do you do that??
2. ive heard the word Kernel being used but actually dont know what one is or what it does. complete novice to all this im afraid - i know about ROMs (for JB) like Cyanogen CM10, Slimbean and HellyBean etc etc, and have actually heard of this Semaphore but not actually knowing what it is!
Can you explain what this all means at all ?
btw - i get your point about Samsung especially on thier own non-andriod phones. to be fair the stock roms work flawlessly on my i9000 and the UI progression from Eclair to GB is staggering...even if it is cloaked as Andriod development....still looks and feels better than any Iphone. Thats what i meant by i wish Samsung would of developed ICS and JB for the I9000.
What helps in terms of battery life CM roms is:
-using 2d as much as possible and 3d only when needed (browsing, downloading apps etc). Problem is that 2g mode will not allow you to use data and make phone calls at the same time
-disable location services or at least gps when not used
-freeze/remove apps you are not using (stock email, talk, gmaps are battery drainers)
-disable CM built in app&data backup and use TB instead
-use lowest acceptable screen brightness
-buy a brand new battery

Hmmmm well all that seems like a gr8 idea but then what would be the point of flashing CM or any JB custom rom if i werent going to be able to use the features within it, like you would an S3 ??!!!! Kinda seems pointless to me... At the end of the day JB is the latest and greatest version, youd want to use and explore its capabilites as much as you can, without comprimising hardware performance..
Surely there must be a non battery draining and stable version of JB out there.......:crying:
@up
Totally agree with you. These are just workarounds that make you able to survive a day without recharging but at the same time limit user's satisfaction from owning a multifunctional device (eg no location and gps = no Google now). I'm switching to SGS2 that will get official jb shortly so will see if it gets better battery life but I do not expect miracles. The only hope in Google and Motorola cooperation. Motorola's battery + updates from Google must make a great combo

Before anything else, please install CM10.1 (http://get.cm/?device=galaxysmtd), CPU Spy (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bvalosek.cpuspy) and BetterBatteryStats. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1179809)
Now in BetterBatteryStats, look at the "partial wakelocks" near the end of a day's charge and drain cycle. This will tell you what was keeping your phone awake. My money is on RILJ being at the top of the list and active for several hours. If that is the case, you need to change your modem. Check CPU Spy as well to see how much time your phone spends sleeping when it's supposed to.
Modems
The "modem" is basically like a driver file for the phone's radios and such. (Cell radio, WiFi, GPS, etc) It tells the phone how to use those things. So some modems are less efficient or not tuned as well for your specific carrier.
http://soggycashew.weebly.com/i9000-modems.html - Here is a collection of modems packaged in Clockwork Mod zip files. If you were able to install CM10, I'm sure you know how to install them.
Go to the "i9000_release_dates.txt" file and try the most recent one. If you have an i9000M which supports the 850MHz band, only use the 850MHz-capable modems. Likewise, if you have a regular i9000, don't use those. Testing may take at least day or so each. If you're still seeing a RILJ wakelock time more than about 20 minutes a day, try the next latest one.
Kernels
The "Kernel" is sort of like the BIOS in a PC. It starts up first then Android runs on top of it. Android communicates with the kernel, and then the kernel communicates with your phone's hardware. It runs the screen, sound chip, vibrator, radios, everything. Some kernels are basic and only include what they need to run the phone normally (like the stock Cyanogenmod kernel) and some are made to let you change all sorts of settings of how they operate.
I highly recommend Semaphore JB for CM10.1
You'll find that here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1786220
And the app to change settings here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.semaphore.sm
For improved power savings, use the app to turn on Deep Idle, make sure WiFi PM FAST is disabled, and you may as well turn on fast charge. (no power saving, but a shorter charge time is nice)
Android
Now this stuff is pretty simple, but it can be overlooked. Make sure to turn off apps that auto-update or at least lower their update frequency as much as possible. These are brutal for battery life. With your Google account, only enable sync for things you NEED to have updated automatically. Like Gmail and Chrome. Things like Contacts and Calendar you can update manually whenever you want but you probably don't need it constantly ready to sync. You can also do things like lower the screen brightness and turn off the fancy stuff, but I don't bother. 100% screen brightness all the time for me. I'd rather have a good experience than another couple minutes of battery.
I really hope this all helps and you can get on the latest ROM without the crippling battery drain these phones sometimes get. And you have the right idea about keeping all the effects and things on. Everything's active when the screen is on anyway, so battery savings will be negligible. Good luck!
All operating systems have a kernel, Windows, OS-X, Linux, whatever, it's just that in a closed system like Windows no-one knows its specifics or can do anything to it, whereas Linux's can be.
(Take a look at your screen when turning on your phone, the kernel image is not the first you see)

They should do that as soon as possible as the JB thing means a great progress in Android development. The new OS is really faster, covers alot of minuses from the previous versions and Samsung, being so good in the last few years they should stay in touch with new, good ROMs if they dont want to begin to have Google as their second conquerent.

Apple just stops updating devices for no better reason than they want to force upgrades, it's not like the old devices wouldn't work. Like what Samsung did here, except at least porting Android over would take a little bit of work/time. Still no better though. Apple also holds "features" back from older devices purely to market something new on their otherwise indistinguishable upgrade. (like Siri)
Nobody, including Apple, should follow Apple's example. I think Samsung should stop bothering with bastardizing Android and just hand the drivers over to the devs here, because they actually make software people actually want to use, and enjoy using.
...its very sad that i9000 won't get ( >= ICS), sgs1 is still very good phone...
Wish, you were here...
successfully using cm10 stable without any customized kernels , no battery drains, just do a factory reset from firmware settings, and you will be happy

It isn't, this phone is basically an S3 with a different radio or a Note 2 with a different screen. Same progress can mostly be applied across all 3 devices, it just requires someone that knows how to do it. Just look at how much codeworkx has done on CM 10.1 for I9305 in the past week or so, he doesn't even have the device yet he was able to more or less bring it up to speed with the aforementioned devices due to it being so very similar.
Unfortunately, since it is so similar it will also suffer the same problems as the other devices. Such as graphics glitches and worsened battery performance (than compared to official) due to badly documented RIL from Samsungs part.

I have also been following codeworkx cm 10.1 progression over the past few weeks, and I was curious as to know how it would make it faster/easier to build if we have the "source code" from Samsung. Is it a similar process with changing chips in cars where certain values and percentages are needed to make particular parts work instead of trying to experiment??
Thank you in advance

Partially, it's more like trying to install a new engine into a completely invisible car where you can only barely feel the parts and the only way of knowing if you've done it correctly is if the car works.
