CyanogenMod 7.2 rc0 kang test build

This is a test build with work mostly from arcee and a little by myself to get the newest cyanogenmod to work with the radio on the p925 aka LG Thrill. This build has arcee's latest patches for better a2dp and removal of gps logging.
Install the same way you would cyanogenmod. This is a test thread and will be removed once arcee gets the p925 nightlies up and running. Leave any feedback you have below and I will pass them to arcee.

arcee has started nightlies for the p925.

Do I install like an update(wipe caches) or do I have to wipe everything and factory reset?

if you have the arcee kang build installed than all you have to do is wipe cache. If you are coming from a lg based rom you need to wipe data/cache.

Do we need GB baseband? Also, the link doesn't seem to work.

Of course not. It is made for the thrills current radio. Until LG and AT&T decide to release gingerbread for us we have to have two separate build setups for the p920 and p925.

so sad that in this day and age with ICS out, we are still crying to the bastards(LG and AT&T) for GB release

Hmmm...I really liked CM7 but it tore through battery life way too fast. It's okay while I'm on Christmas vacation but once next week rolls around, there's no way I can have that short of battery life. The longest I was able to hold a charge was 7 hours and that was without using my phone, down to 1 screen, only Gmail and exchange synced, and screen off. I tried 3 different batteries and all the same result.
On the Doomed ROM, I can get 8-10 hours of battery life with making calls, texts, downloading apps, uninstalling apps, playing games, running multiple screens with quite a few things synced, etc

So far looks and runs great! I have what may be a dumb question though, is 3d capability taken out of this cm7 or is there plans to keep 3d. As of now there's no 3d apps and 3d button is now inactive. Great job on this though!

Sorry still no 3d or hdmi. You can view 3d videos through youtube still but you cannot take them.

Ah gotcha. Any plans on being able to have 3d capabilities on here in the future?

I know he wants to get hdmi working but 3d I am not sure.

The 3D issue is with LGs propriatary 3d software that does not seem to work well with others...

I could honestly care less about 3D. I'd rather see HDMI fixed.

There is no 3d (except in camera, weird) b/c it relies on lg's proprietary 3d framework, and cm7 is built from Google source.

Wow. This is excellent. A2dp works awesome so far! Also this build deals with notification sounds while music is playing better than even the stock rom.
Great work.

arcee did a good job and showed me how to make it compatible with the old radio.

Installing now, I've tried just about every rom. I'm practically ready to sacrifice 3D and HDMI for something great. Please let this be great...
Please think of 3D in the future as well
EDIT:
So how do I access my internal memory? It will only mount my SD card, and it will not show my internal in Astro.

it's located under /mnt/emmc

Most important issues that remain:
Too much gain on in call volume.
Ambient mic still acting as phone mic instead of noise cancellation.

[Q] ICS - is it worth the upgrade?

Hi Guys,
I want some feedback regarding ICS update. Is it worth it? I am on Rogers (Canada). Any one experience ghost call/sms? How stable is it?
I would appreciate any feedback?
Thanks

A lot of users are having difficulty with the base band working. There's a thread about it in the optimus forums. My son uses mine to play angry birds. Wifi works well. I think someone mentioned problems with Bluetooth connections. As with most things your mileage may vary.

Mine runs ics great a little lag at times but pretty good working it all out though

From my experience MMS sucked, the camera was buggy, and there's a lot of Korean bits left in it. I think GB Prometheus ROM has it beat by a long shot to be honest. If you like working on Android you'll enjoy it cause you will be doing a lot of it.

It charges the phone a lot faster, battery's charge lasts longer than before while not using the phone.
Once you have flashed the baseband with the fastboot procedure (because once you have flashed the ICS rom you lose the GB download mode) and once you have deleted all the Korean T, Nate and SKT bloatware, it runs pretty great...HOWEVER!!!
You ARE NOT going to be able to adjust the brightness while watching 3d videos or movies while using the stock player...
You ARE NOT going to be able to use the 3D Converter as you used to with GB because IT DOES NOT TRANSFORM ANY GAMES TO 3D!!!
The CAMERA PROBLEM!!!
Some games are not running like they should (ocassional slowdowns not present while using GB) even if they are in 2D and you have most of the telephone's ram free.
Everything else appears to be working fine.

So far I've had great results with wifi, sms, and phone on straight talk in USA. Wish I could say for Rodgers. There is a thread here that discusses working basebands for the O3D and the Thrill. you should check it out.

[Q] CM9 (Fat'n'Creamy) vs. CM10 (JCSullins)

Hi,
I just thought it would be useful to start a thread focused specifically and exclusively on the pluses and minuses of the two great choices we have for our Touchpads.
I suspect a lot of us are sitting with CM9 nightlies and wondering which way to leap...what do people think? What are the benefits and issues with each?
Thanks.

I'd say that is more of a "Pro" than a "Con", in my opinion.

Even without flash support we can still install it and run it with native browser or Firefox.

I was noticing graphics errors with flash on CM10, either low FPS or scrambled looking flash elements. I also got this in other UIs in CM10 randomly. I went back to CM9 since I don't really see the benefit of CM10 at the moment.

I like cm10! Much smoother and faster! Graphics are great! Flash works great in both dolphin and puffin browser! My antutu scores were much better!

What's considered to be the best rom for stability and battery life that is ICS or JB?

ROM for Optimus 2X?

I tried the Optimus Thrust and Gueste cm7 and cm7 but I am Not satisfied at all! Which one is the best Rom for this phone? Are there any smooth roms with good battery life and short charging time? Im now on old bl but I can simply Update it so no matter about that.

1. Best rom threads aren't allowed here
2. But to answer your question, there is never one ideal rom. It's a personal preference. What I'd suggest is, look at the few popular roms, like one each on ics, cm10, cm10.1 which are trending currently on the forum(browse in the development section to know more, but don't ask in those threads "is this rom best or better than that other rom" etc.) , and give those a try one by one. Settle on your favorite one among those.
Most out here would agree that there is no best, there is a user's personal favorite. Henceforth, a request and an appeal to other new users to not create a similar thread and use this as a reference.
Regards

I personally think that stock gingerbread is the best one, i know it looks like awful due to LG UI Skins but, my back to life O2x is running like a fresh phone now. CM7 as you mentioned is very good at performance but not at battery life, after my O2x bricked when i was trying to install stock ICS, i was using Nova HD and it is pretty awesome, but i think they stopped the development. If you have any question, you can ask me, i will be glad to help you!:victory:

As was explained above, the 'best threads' aren't allowed, one reason, it's avoid discussions since every person has a different opinion based on usage, installed apps, installed mods, etc.
I'll close this to avoid more related posts...

[Q] Cyanogenmod 10 camera problem

CM10 is not really stable in this state and I'm sorry. It would never ever be stable for this world to Xperia X8. CM7 is enough stable for X8.

perfectly stable on my x8. tried a few cm10-based roms as well. not as fast/responsive as cm7, but just as stable.
@op: what rom+kernel combo are you using?

yeah. i noticed some people having issues now. maybe due to the unified kernel? i don't know. the only bug i have is bluetooth which i don't use anyway. it's also present on cm7 for the unified kernel.

Thank you for your answers. I think i will try CM7. Hope it fixes the problem.
