Hi,
I am from India and a newbie to Android world.
I have a LG stock ROM(optimus 2x p990 Gingerbread). The factory version of the ROM is LGP990AT-00-V20e-ESA-XXX-OCT-28-2011.
The baseband is 1035.21_20110725
After taking a backup of image of Stock ROM with CWM,I have installed Gueste 2x v3.6 Hybrid Revolution, with symbiosis kernel.I have found it to be stable with good GUI
I have observed a heavy battery drain, with RIL v10d(Europe)
I am planning to flash 218 baseband as suggested by stefan.
But before doing so, I want to clear my doubts and have few requests
1) what are the best settings for a good battery life? I am switching to 2g networks when not surfing/downloading.
I am also using lots of apps, for my kid, who uses my mobile for a hour or so.
2)In case I need to go to Stock LG ROM, where can I get the original baseband, as I do not find it it anywhere, so as to to restore the CWM backup.
3) Stefan- Your ROM is wonderful. I have got few requests.Can you please port the stock LG Messaging app, Contacts app & "Backup & Restore" app .
Thanks
I am also from India.
I am using 0725 Baseband with v20d(Asia) RIL.
I dont have any battery problems whatsoever on this baseband and RIL combo. I get a straight 1 and half day on moderate usage (Few call and texting, 2g browsing for an hour or so, some music listening)
Battery drain wont be always due to baseband. It may also depend on some of the Apps you use which run in background.
Check the battery usage from the settings and see which program is using most of your battery.
Press "THANKS" if this helped.
Use the search function instead of starting a new thread. Please close this one.
Thanks Shane582.
I am sure that the battery drain was due to wrong bb (725) and RIL(v10d Europe).
As I am unable to get the LGP990AT-00-V20e-ESA-XXX-OCT-28 version of KDZ, I had posted the mail here, hoping that some one may help me.
Anyway this is not required now.
Also since this was my first post, I couldn't thank Stefan for his superb ROM( Gueste 2x v3.6 Hybrid Revolution )
found at the link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1464986
Also I do a search properly, hoping to find a solution. Hence till date for the past one month, I was able to flash CWM, 5 different ROMs and come to a satisfactory solution for the issues faced.
Excepting for some rookies, I found the forum quite helpful, for sorting out all kinds of problems
Thanks everyone.
how to unroot and restore
Hi,
I am from India and a newbie to Android world.
I have a LG stock ROM(optimus 2x p990 ) rooted and running on cm9 NOVA HD ICS i want to unroot and restore stock gingerbread, how to i do it ???
MY BACK IS NOT WORKING DONT KNOW HOW.
WAITING FOR SOLUTION ...
THANKS
Hi guys
A friend of mine has a problem: his Galaxy keeps restarting randomly for no reason, many times in a day while using it.
What is weird: the phone hasn't ever been rooted/flashed with a custom rom, neither updated, always been 100% original. Just a normal usage!
I'm not much into this phone, so i don't know if it's a known issue or what.. but it sounds strange to me, possible hardware problem? Needs to be flashed or rooted? Other?
I've already done a factory reset and now i took off the sd-card to see if it could be it, but i'd appreciate some advices!
Thanks
Try updating it with kies, might help but can't guarantee
if random reboots happens while using too much mobile resources then its normal for galaxy mini like phone
Random Reboots might be device specific or not , It depends.
But you may want to visit the samsung care center in your vicinity area just to be sure about the latter .
Else just flash a new stock Rom via ODIN (not that it would leave your device impure as rooting does ).

Is Froyo the last "official" release or was a Gingerbread leaked/official firmware released? I'll probably try flashing something, don't know yet if a custom rom could solve the problem but still it's a possibility

With mobile resources you mean 3G/wifi or RAM? By the way in both the cases i don't think it's the problem, since there aren't many apps in background and the only one using internet connection is whatsapp!
Thanks for the replies :good:

The last official android update for for sgm was gingerbread based api.
Try flashing the stock gingerbread on the device via odin (google it if you don't know how to.) and then try custom roms.
Also the thing about resources, you already know about our sgm aka lil'g . Its not that powerful as most quad core latest devices boosted by plenty much RAM. So multitask on it wisely.

I'll try with gingerbread when i see my friend, thanks! I own a i9000 and flashed pretty much so i know odin and similar stuff, no problem
And yes i tried the mini many times, doesn't have a bunch of ram but still i think it can't be a ram-lack problem since it did the same also after the factory reset, with few apps installed!
Thanks again for the help :good:
Oh, was forgetting: how does the cyano run on the mini? Smooth? Battery killer or ok for everyday use?
Try cm7 by mebitek. Despite its source code is old and official cm7 is way more ahead of it, the mebitek's cm7 relays on battery & performance like a pro..
by resources I mean more ram and CPU usage
background apps ( they don't play big role as they get closed automatically)
running big games (HD one)
etc.
if you have many apps, cut the .android_secure folder and paste it on your computer.. i had this problem with the stock GB 2.3.6.. reboots reboots and reboots!! i pasted the folder in my comp, delete unnecessarily used apps and VOILA! it was running smooth again.. but now i'm using cm7..
I updated to official gingerbread release, then after putting all the (few) apps into phone storage i removed every android-secure file!
I'll see how it goes with this, if the problem remains i'll try a cyano or go directly to the service center
Thanks again for the tips!

Helloo...im using your great rom for few days.Its quite good...but kinda slow for me with stock kernel(i know that i can flash other kernels) Can you add strong accord kernel ?
Thx
Sorry for bad Eng.

It is possible that the ROM provides customization options within the system and not at the time of the install mode similar CM10 that are based on?
For example: clock in the center or on the side, various styles of lockscreen, clock + date style, style icons and battery etc..
Another thing would be, you can deploy LED notifications?
Sorry my English.

Customization options within system requires a lot xml file modifications. This will take some time. For notification, have you tried LG Touch LED Notification app? Its free on play store.
I've got a question about choosing apps, can i add my apps before install/flash rom? i mean, can i add my luncher, keyboard, im using holo luncher and swift key (both are bought) and it will be nice to have only them without others lunchers/keyboard.

No that works not. Generally speaking you need something first to change it.

I just installed this rom since about a week, had some battery drain problems. I switched to the interactive governor and this got a bit better. One big drain is wifi, for this i installed an app which disconnects wifi when screen goes off and on again when i wake my phone. Another problem is that the phone is constantly awake and never goes into deep sleep. Any solution for that?
hi ppl, here is my review, i change to hellmanor kernel. first impression that its running good, i need a lot of battery and when i set to lionheart and cfq. i manage to have a working phone over 24 hrs with low usage, around 8 short calls, about 2 hrs of wifi, no data 2/3g at all, and around 1 hr of gaming. and few minutes ago i put to recharge, battery left b4 charge - 44%
the funny thing is that i notice that my phone start to ring very late while incoming calls, i use vibrate with sound, while a call is incoming, the phone vibrate around 5 sec b4 the sound kicks in, this wasn't happening with stock kernel.
do u think that it might be the governor i chose or maybe I/O ? maybe the low cpu speed when phone in deep sleep?
thanks

Lockscreen
Hi Tantrums,
first thanks for you work.Greate job I have several questions. Is it possible turn off the locksreen rotation? I hate it If i get the sms or miss call, the notification bar show me. But if i turn off this in notification, sms still like unread. I want accept it from notification, not go to the sms or dialer and tap to miss call or sms. Last is GPS. After lock the satelites, gps work normal. But if i want use it for running, walking and others, gps is not realy correct. Sport tracker show me bad way, distance and speed. I guess gps use only few satellites. Do you can change this for next version? Please! Because you ROM is awesome.
Thanks you.
I wonder how I install CWM recovery without flashing the regular v20s via SFT? I tried not to install this custom CMW ('ve had problems with it to restore roms at other times) but could not.
I await your help.
Hello!
I have not been able to sort out the issue of date & time sync with my network provider, I have to do it manually & I have to go through all the pain every time I reboot my phone.
Also, is there any app to control the extensive battery drain?

from the Play Store, download and install "No-frills CPU Control". Open the program and set the governor to either "performance" or "interactive". Set the scheduler to "cfq". That should help with the battery. (it should actually double it).
Not sure about the time sync. Someone else was manually having to do it too.
Have you performed a factory reset via settings or the hidden menu?

Did you flash v30 baseband? Coz for me it solved the problem with auto time/date sync.

I used the base band from Huexxx when I updated from GB to ICS:

You should be able to change the base band even after you install a ROM image.
Hi, I'd like to try this ROM but I just have a few quick questions as I couldn't find a clear answer reading through all the posts in this thread and the dev. thread...
Is flashing the baseband absolutely essential to run this ROM? I currently have V20j as I'm in Canada on the Koodo (Telus) provider. I noticed the basebands (versions V30x) are for Europe and Germany etc. Would this not cause an issue as I'm in Canada? Would the language still be in English?
Also there are several baseband versions, I'm not sure which one I should use. Can anyone help me understand which one I should use (if any)?
Does this ROM contain it's one gapps version as well as it's own Kernel? (I'm currently using kernel 3.0.8)
I'm currently running Mackay 2.7.6 (JB 4.2.2) so I'm assuming just a factory/data wipe, wipe dalvik cache, wipe cache, and install the zips from SD, correct?
Can someone confirm the bluetooth works with this ROM (audio works) as well as camera works completely?
Thanks in advance.
I will try with the v30 baseband.

No it's not essential. I don't know if it's better to stay with your baseband or flash the european open. I would first stay with the one you have and than after a few days try the v30 one, if v30 works well it's probably better. You know that some contries in europe speek English too? (Like England.)

Your getting something complettly wrong here, this is not CM9 based it's based on the oficiall LG v30b, so Gapps are not needed (you could say there already included, but it's more like there not removed). Marvel11 comes with aroma installer and includs 3 different kernels. Mackay is CM10.1 based, so everything is different, the kernel for sure.
Can someone confirm the bluetooth works with this ROM (audio works) as well as camera works completely?

Camera works, GPS didn't for me (europe) but it might for you, bluetooth I hardly ever use so I can't garantie but it works on other v30 based ROMs so I don't see why not. (As said it's not CM9 based.)
Don't make a fuss just try it, it should work. If it doesn't you probably made something wrong, than come back explain what you did and probably a few ppl can help you.
do we need to flash v30 baseband separately? doesn't it gets flashed along with the ROM?
Is there a relationship between bootloaders and basebands? I mean, can I use an old BB (say a v20a or v20g) BB with the new bootloader? Anyone tried it? I'm asking because I've flashed a stock ICS (aka v30a BB, new bootloader) and then moved on to ParanoidAndroid by TonyP. But now I wish to test how my 3G behaves on my original BB, but I don't want to re-install everything. If I can keep the new bootloader, a simple nandroid backup will do for the inevitable wipe caused by the BB flashing.

I'm asking about bootloaders, not RILs. Since I'll keep on using PA, I'll use whatever RIL comes with the ROM. As Tonyp explains in the Basebands thread, you don't mess with RILs in CM10 based ROMs (which PA is one of).
You can use v10 v20 bb with no problems at all. I think the best option for cm10 roms is to use old bbs since with v30 bbs cm10 roms show one hour less than it should be. I meab the time is now 8:30 but on a cm10 rom it would show 7:30

Well, I've never had those time problems. Maybe it's because I don't get time from my network (I try but it seems that they don't send it anyway ).
Since I need some time to do the backup, I'll try flashing the baseband on the weekend and when I have the results I'll post it here.

Quick help for a newbe: where to find New Bootloader
Hi there,
I am a newbe that wants to load a custom rom on my LG P990.
I've read a lot about it already and on this forum etc.
I hope you are willing to provide me a few sentences explanation:
* I want to load CM11, I need the New Bootloader for that. Where can I find the New Bootloader?
* I also found out that there is an All In One Toolkit. Does this toolkit include the New Bootloader? Can I use this All In One Toolkit for flashing CM11 to LG P990?
* It does not become clear to me if I only need to download the ROM or also the kernel? Or does the ROM already include the correct kernel? (e.g. following this latest build/update on this XDA forum: post by gucky01 on 25 Oct. 08:41)
* Finally you can maybe provide me a few words on the difference between 3.1 and M1? Why have two sources of ROMs been developed, why not just continue with 1?
Thanks a lot!
In aio u can change bootloaders
Flash with recovery the twrp 2.7.10.zip search it in development. After boot to your twrp recovery make wipe
And install the rom
The kernel is inside the cm11 rom
OK, I was able to flash to CM11.
Just one question: I searched hell out of google, but I cannot find nowhere TWRP 2.7.10 (or twrp 2.7.10.zip), and not at all for LG P990.
Latest version for LG P990 is TWRP 2.6.00 according to official TWRP site and according AIO-tool.

Bad Battery - Battery life (Advice)
If some of you have noticed sudden "reboot" let's say, I have got an advice for you!
Some months ago, my phone suddenly turned off even if the battery level was up to 80 percent. I was pretty shocked and I did not know what that means. Then my phone tried to reboot but it stucked in bootloop and I could not turn on the phone. Is it caused by rom? I thought. So I removed the battery and inserted back again. I plugged in the charger and then I was able to boot my phone again. It happened very often and I was crying a lot.
It was very annoying so I decided to buy a new battery. I replaced the old one by the new one and now everything works perfectly.
And of course it will take some time to get the new battery working well (I recommend full charging cycles (from 20 percent to 100 percent)).
Do not discharge your battery to 0 percent. It does not like any of the Li-ion batteries.
touch my phone does not work
please help me !
can you teach me how to build tonyp's source code ,thks!
it sees some code not in tonyp's framework/base ,like getSimNameBySubScription.

Battery Charge Issue
First of all thank you tonyp and all others who worked to get Kit-Kat for our old phones and make it new again
However I have below questions - would be really grateful if someone would help me with them. I am on M1 Jul 21:41:16 CEST2014-20140716
1) I am unable to upgrade my M1 with CWM and TWRP with all versions and all possible wipe methods, was trying to update (gucky01) weekly updates but always ended up in an error, tried dirty, clean dalvik, clean partation..aah everything, but no go
2) This is most important one, since I have upgraded to above mentioned ROM from stock ICS, its taking ages to get a complete charge. Really need some help here since I was able to get a full charge in like 80mins I guess with stock, however with this one it usually take about 5 hours! for 1500mAh battery?? Really?? C'mon!!
Let me know if there are any workarounds for above posted questions.
Thank you again to all developers, god bless you all

Hey guys, i'd like to ask:
Running 13. October build w/optimizations and latest 3.1 KK.
When I manage to get oom (4 tabs in browser or so), phone becomes unresponsive (as expected), but then the notification bar gets really laggy. Interesting is that when it's extracted to fullscreen, the animations are really slow (5 fps or so) , but when the less i see from navbar, the faster it is. (When i swipe down the bar for just a little bit, it doesn't even lag). Do you know what can cause this problem? I thought it might be rendering problems after systemui.apk got forceclosed while oom.

Unknown issue with Google Play services
Update: I found a solution. Please see post #20 below.
Hi, I've installed the latest tonyp test build 20150130. I did a full wipe but often get "Unknown issue with Google Play services." Any ideas why?
I have installed some of the latest Google apps such as Maps, Play Music, and Hangouts.
Google Play services is currently version 6.5.99 on my phone. I've tried clearing the cache and can't see how to reinstall it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
Everything is great except for the camera. I have a problem when recording video . picture freezes . I do not have that problem with ICS . I use the kernel M1 .
Anyone have problem with mobile data?I use last tonyp rom and its fantastic,but same problem i have like on previous roms,mobile data crashed all the time...

Hey all, I solved this by updating Google Play services to version 6.6.03. You can find and download it on MihirGosai's [APPs] [SHARE] Google Play Services 6.7.74 and Google Play Games 2.2.09 thread.
Not sure if it made a difference but I also switched from CWM to TWRP 2.8.1.0 found on DJNoXD's [RECOVERY] [newbl] TWRP 2.8.1.0 touch recovery [2014-11-30] thread.
Things seem a lot more stable after these two changes.
Thanks for the awesome ROMs tonyp!!
