[Q] Go back to ICS? - LG Optimus 4X HD

I have installed CM 1.2 and I hate it. The wifi is worse, all of the popular apps (Instagram, Facebook, Whatsapp, etc.) are not available trough Google Play, the battery drains about 5% per hour in idle, it's buggy because it won't lock when I press the power button.
I can't find any differece between CM and JB except that CM has a bit different settings and more bugs.
How do I go back to ICS? JB sucks on P880 because the phone will get laggy due to low RAM.
If I go back to ICS, can I use my warranty for the phone or is it screwed because I have unlocked the bootloader? Is there no way to lock it again?

I did not say that CM is laggy. I tend to never get spelling errors on the CM keyboard, but on the JB stock keyboard I do a lot of spelling errors...
Anyway I hate CM because:
- Sometimes I can not lock the phone by pressing the power button.
- When the phone is locked the display will be black for 2-3 seconds when I press the power button
- My WiFi connection is weaker
Yeah, it pretty much just feels like JB but more buggy...

See, this is why I can't be arsed sticking to CM. There is so many ****ty fixes you have to do for every little problem that occurs. I just want to install a ROM that just works instantly. Like JB except that it's laggy as ****.

If your ROM is so good coded, why can you not make a guide that is easy to follow? There are so many ****ty steps and tons of different threads made by kids that you have to go through in order to install CM.
Also the battery icon is disproportionately thin. It's so ugly and looks so unaligned that I want to cry every time I see it.

My first impression when trying to install CM on a smartphone is "this is messy and the documentation is bad", which doesn't increase my hope for the ROM at all... If the developers can't make it easy to install, then how good is the actual code?

to me it looks like that!
- if u cant lock the phone properly then maybe something is wrong with your gapps u used.
- if u have big latency to unlock maybe: either u run on low cpu values/ powersave or conserve governor/ homescreen is with some live wallpaper connecting to the internet to send ads and a theme thats overweight.
- wifi definately isnt weaker. maybe it sometimes shows wrong signal bars on statusbar ( for example im above my router and sometimes i see 3 bars out of 4, but checking the signal further i see that its at his maximum power ).
About cm ? yea first impression is always the tough one. even when we saw boobs for the first time when we were kids, we thought OMG those are nice. it cant everything be so easy, click here and everything is done...

agreed to that xD iphone is so easy to jailbreak etc. cydia has everything setup so easy, "press a button and do your magic"
but we are on 5s now and still the galaxy s4 is better when we buy apple, we pay the apple logo. this apple logo costs one and a half months salary in greece.

My 2 cents.

Ok, you are not going to like this, but I just have to share my experiance with the 4.0.X series.
None, is good enough for daily use, yet.
Example: In my car, BT on, GPS on and incoming call hangs. Total lock up, random reboot. Messages: Contact process do not answere, would you like to terminate process. FB, same. Go Launcher, same.. other apps, same. Had ardx or CK kernal. No hyper settings, nothing more than on a regular GB rom.
I am starting to have dissbelieves on 4.X.X on this device. Reason? CPU and RAM in combination of looked up drivers our excellent developers can't get their hands on and mix/crossovers from other devices ports
Question: Is there anyone loobying / connected to Qualcomm/Huawei?
What can I do?
Please, this IS NOT any critique to anyone involved with any rom, port, dev, member or post. Just a question on where we are heading.

Same my thoughts and that is the reason I'm still on GB (Bumblebee), I was getting lot of Launcher Redraws also on 4.0.4 and all the other problems which you mentioned and the culprit is our RAM which is not even 512mb (only 351 or 356MB), if you switch off running background processes then what's the use of a smartphone without multi tasking.
Hi chrillefr...Have you tried IceCold 8.0...Before this ROM I had the same feeling what you have now...but since this ROM has come I have tried other ROM's experimenting but I revert back to this ROM.
Your feedback on this?...Our developers are working hard to get the perfect ROM for this phone.

.. yes, a bit of that in my mind. I know dev's are working their ass of to get all of this together and I'm blessed to take part of it too. Also, I'm thinking about "less" important features such as FM and full cam support, compiling kernals etc but I feel a bit helpless not being able to contribute more than on a philosophical level...

I'm on Milestone, CK kernel and it works pretty well while not under too much stress. I have 1200 Ghz, smartassV2, 409? in SD read ahead and scrolling cache default. Still as mentioned above, how much will we be able to put into this phone and still have it multitasking? Is the cost of cam, FM and so on the price we have to pay? Also, what can I do? Don't dev, just leach...

i think it depends on what u want.like if ur req is just the basics like me
im sure the matBLK provided CM9 A99 ending with the no 610 should be good enough i have been using it for a long time and have had no FC or any problems with it .My feeling is that is is very much a daily use ROM
but then i just need the basics thats all:laugh:

Multitasking, cam, BT and GPS and no wait state is what I need for daily use. Cam corder and front cam if possible.
Now, battery is good, sound and tether too.
Lets say I want to relie on my phone around others, not necessary stand out but not die on me like an old car that I don't know if it takes me from A to B.
Roms are getting larger both on cpu and gpu, just as computers and I guess we are getting closer to the limit with this one. So build light.
Sent from my A99 using xda app-developers app
Very true bro.
After extensively testing most of the roms in this forum, especially the ics ones, I've finally gone back to Sharp Rom fix 1, as most of the ics roms are not really designed for our device and though the Devs are doing there best to make it work but let's face is, I don't think our device can take that much any more. I personally multitask a lot and its very annoying and embarrassing when it fcs or reboot while your trying to show something to someone. As for me I think am gonna stick with Sharp for a while till something comes out of all the ics roms. I've asked if ck could make his kernel compatible with sharp cos I fill that will make it great.
Also don't you guys think most of these roms that aren't really meant for our phones that we regularly flash can be detrimental to the health of our phones at the long run? Like Chris will say, just my 2 cents lol.
This is just my personal opinion and am sorry if it makes some peep feel bad.

As Wesleyel said I also feel that ICS is not running smooth on our devices, I still feel that CPU and GPU are quite capable of running it but RAM is really giving us a headache, you can see that lot of 1ghz or less phones are running ICS nicely like ZTE Blade, skate, some Huawei phones also.... anyhow presently would like to stay on GB and will like to see what Jelly Beans port come to our devices by the devs

[REQ] AOSP 4.1.1_r6 (JRO03R) ROM

I would love a stock ROM without any customizations based on the latest sources dropped in AOSP, would anyone be kind enough to build me one? I'm sure I'm not the only one to want this. I don't got the kind of net or computer to compile myself (the source download itself is 6GB which is a bit difficult for me at the moment).

Sent From My Toro+ via White Tapatalk
Be wary though, I think flashing the drivers mixes things up behind the scenes, for example I'm always running bug less beast for stability and I after I flashed the drivers everything seemed fine, till I went to the hospital and well they got free WiFi which would always connect properly, u just have to open a webpage to accept terms, conditions and then u can use their WiFi, well the other day (still on bugless beast) I tried to connect it would not obtain IP address what so ever so I couldn't even get to the splash screen to accept conditions and activate the WiFi, so I thought hmm I been here before plenty of times using my n7 with the mentioned ROM and had no issues with their WiFi then I started to think it was them and WiFi must be screwed up at the moment, and well that never changed my phone was fine so I decided f-it reflash the ROM on my n7 and boom that was the fix, anyways go download the latest bugless beast he updated to latest jro03r and is completely stock aosp with a nice reboot menu and camera/lock screen shortcut are included as well

From time to time you might feel like that. But it does not mean that you can't tamper with a phone, especially a nexus one.
Yes if I would buy an s4 the only thing that I would is root it just for the sake of TB.
But with the nexus you can do anything and is super easy to return to where you were.
And no counter or avoiding warranty by unlocking the bootloader you just need 3 words to lock or unlock it and of course a backup
I don't say you have to become a crack flasher but trying mods and roms will make you have a better perspective and even convince you that stock is better.
Anyway, everything is up to you.
You can always leave it at stock and wait for that much desired OTA.
Cheers mate

I used to feel like this. Back when I had a g2x I flashed because I HAD to frequently. Every ROM would inevitably become unstable and I would find myself looking for a new ROM to flash. Annoying as hell really. My n4 is rooted stock 4.2.2 w/ franco kernel for help with battery drain. I truly yearn for the day that I don't have to do anything to a phone. Not even root. Will the nexus line eventually come pre-rooted as well as unlocked? A man can dream can't he?

I don't feel like I need to install a custom rom with this device. Tweaking it with a few mods gets me what I need. I still don't get why some refuse to mod the phone because they want to get the next ota update. Once it is released, all one has to do is flash a rooted version that should appear here within 24 hours.

This and I want Google to give the option to unlink the bloody notification and call volume. I also want brightness slider in the notification or quick settings, dont understand why no one apart from Samsung considers the importance of the slider.

Oh man! A former G2x user... that also lives in Central NJ. Remember when we were waiting for the O2x ICS update? No HW acceleration or anything, it sucked.
I don't flash nearly as often as I used to like I did with my G2x. I stick with ROMs for much longer now. I'm happy with CM10.1

I don't understand why it doesn't come pre-rooted. Just like enabling the Developer options, there should be some method needed to enable root, aside from the whole custom recovery custom root solution thing. Normal users aren't exposed directly to root, and power users who need root, can easily enable it. And... new users can root too without the need of those toolkits :good:

laggy jellybean 4.1.2

hi,i've always been a fan of the optimus 4x hd and finally bought one a week ago. was too excited to update to jellybean that i ignored all the problems i heard about and now i can't live with the problems in this update.
i read about a lot of problems with the update but after using it for a week(heavy user) ,the only problems i see are the lag and the slow charging.
i could've lived with anything but this lag is too much to take in. it gets so painfully slow sometimes. i mean,it's a quad core beast for crying out loud!
what is the best way to fix this?
should i go back to ICS?
should i root and install a custom rom??
any help anyone can give me will be greatly appreciated.
Install custom kernel and wipe all. There should be no laggs. Or flash custom rom and kernel or roll back to ics.
There is already an jelly bean lagg thread. Why not use search function ?

Yes, they require rooting, unlocking the bootloader etc. Please, please start using the search function.
If your phone is expensive and you can't afford to risk it then you shouldn't ever be messing around with it as there is always a risk in anything.

hi,i've always been a fan of the optimus 4x hd and finally bought one a week ago. was too excited to update to jellybean that i ignored all the problems i heard about and now i can't live with the problems in this update.
i read about a lot of problems with the update but after using it for a week(heavy user) ,the only problems i see are the lag and the slow charging.
i could've lived with anything but this lag is too much to take in. it gets so painfully slow sometimes. i mean,it's a quad core beast for crying out loud!
what is the best way to fix this?
should i go back to ICS?
should i root and install a custom rom??
any help anyone can give me will be greatly appreciated.

To reduce the lags,
Type 3845#*880# on the dial pad and enter the hidden menu.
Scroll down, select MLT, uncheck the box at the bottom and restart your phone.
For fast charging, enter the hidden menu, select Module test/Charging test. Check the box at the top, replug your charger and voila!

you don't have to answer me. so you don't have to be rude and condescending. if you think i'm being stupid by not using the search just ignore me. but don't be rude. you've been no help,by the way.

No you don't have to do that. MLT has nothing useful for the end user.
Backup your data and try factory reset for the lagging problem.
Sorry but these are the only two solutions i know.
If you decide to root your phone one day, you may try LGP880 Booster for better gaming experience and fast charging. Search the forum for the download link.

It's not about being stupid. The very first rule of XDA is to always search before asking any question.
I wasn't being rude or condescending, just honest about the risk to your phone if you can't afford to take that chance.
Maybe you should consider winding your neck in a little bit, you're new on here and need to learn the rules before you go mouthing off at people who have been here a while and take a lot of time to help people on the forums.
thanks,again. i appreciate you taking the time to reply

Try them out and judge for yourself. "Best ROM", "Best Kernel" etc threads are not allowed on XDA as you will get as many different opinions as people who reply, and they tend to lead to arguments.

Hi thanks and I might try to put stock wiz back as a option but I'm waiting for the updated ROM that mine is based on
Also thanks I'm aware the right speaker is broken now that the creator doesn't know if that problem will be fixed but again thanks for the info
Hi, dsilx!
I have installed this ROM a couple of days ago and, I have to tell you, it was the best I've tried since I started to change it. I didn't tried to use the internet and performance booster, but I'll give you my impressions about those features as soon as possible. Nevertheless, these are the points that I'm able to speak a little bit by now:
(Very) Nice Points:
-Speed (transitions are very fast and not jittering)
-Usability flow (very very smooth indeed)
-Battery usage (surprisingly economic)
Points to improve:
-Right Speaker not working (as you may already know). (But since we may encounter this issue in most of ROM's available, I guess it's not that important, even because the sound works right using my earphones)
- Sometimes, the wallpaper is show somehow disregulated, righter or lefter from the position that I've choosen before.
There's another fact important for me.. This ROM have revived my TAB 3, since it lost the efs ( I still don't know how) and recovered only by NEON CUBE ( I don't know why either), what I haven't suceed with the lasts I've tried before.
In a comparison, It's still a great ROM at the end of the day...=D
So, thank you very much for your nice job and be sure you can count on me for the tests you may need in the future!!
Peace!
Gustavo

Hi now thanks for gratitude and niceness now one thing I have to ask keep in mind I'm just a kid but I didn't understand the last part about efs etc. If u could can u plse explain its more kid friendly haha but thanks for the info
Hahahahaha....
Relax, bro, I think I didn't express myself quite clear. Pardon me for that....lol
Two months ago, I was trying another ROM and suddenly Tab begin to don't accept any ROM instalation, showing the message "Failed to mount /efs", or something like that. Then, as a lot of things need my attention at the university and my job as well, I haven't had time enought to research properly in order to directly fix this issue.
I just keep trying to put some ROM's during the rare free time I've had, always regardind the correct version (T210), but with no success (the same message occured).
But this time, with your ROM, it has simply worked and I started to scream like a little girl and run around my house, jumping and singing...lol...besides this a little bit thick lying part, I was very happy for my Tab coming back to life again, this time with a performance I've never had....=)
