First of all: If you came here to download CM for your Optimus 2X, you can go ahead and leave. In this thread we can group the progress made in building CM. Should there be a succesfull build, a seperate thread with the [ROM] tag will be made.
So I guess there are a lot of folks that want CM on their O2X.
Here are my findings with the build:
-Downloaded the tar.gz with all the device specific files from Goddchens repo
-Synced official CM repo
-got files from the 2X with the scripts
-ran the build
All pretty standard stuff, but it fails to boot anything.
I end up at a plain android
Will go ahead and try with another boot.img
Share your building experiences
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Edit: This is no longer a dev thread but has became a random, all things slightly related to CM7 and O2X thread
Mod edit :moving this to general as this is just a discussion when devlopment happens ill move it back- haree

What if you use Paul's boot.img?
And when you say "All pretty standard stuff, but it fails to boot anything.
I end up at a plain android" - what does that last bit mean? It did boot but you got stock ASOP Android???? (If so, that's all we really need to progress but I doubt that's what happened).
What i meant was that it simply displays "android"
like when you boot into clockwork recovery but it stops there
I tried:
-my boot.img => effect described above
-Pauls boot.img => bootanimation from LG, bootloop without access to logcat
-Goddchens boot.img => same effect as mine
Try to build CM 6.X, not the Gingerbread build, use the MCK kernel, should be fine.
Maybe someone will start LG Star vendor tree at Github? Will work on it when I'll recieve my O2X...

As the title says, does anyone here knows any link for KDZ roms with CWM included???
I've tried searching, but most links are not working anymore
I'm a new Oblack user who currently got stuck on v28c with no CWM
I'd like to try other rom, but most custom roms are in zip files which must be flashed cia CWM (am I right??)
If there are any other way to solve my problems, please be glad to tell me
Thanks for all ur helps
There are many ways.
first, i don't think there is a kdz with cwm. There are bin/fls for smartflashtool with cwm injected
you can do that woth the lgextracttool.
or else you can flash an old firmware and follow nooby's big noob how to guide and do it the traditional way i.e. have cwm
is there already a v30b rom as zip for cw out?

Well, there's a repack of the V30B with V30I kernel from Korean's SU5900 - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=35118906&postcount=282
Note that front touch light keys do not turn off even though option to turn off is enabled, apparently a kenrnel bug.

No way to inject CWM in stock rom
You need to install a custom rom like IZS or Marvel v11

With this, you can simply brick your phone..
Why brick the phone may I ask, I'd like to know cause I'm planning to flash a stock patched ROM in the. Next week or so.
And if this met hood isn't safe. Then what is the solution??
And if its too dangerous I'll stick to marvel v11, especially, since it run great.

Injecting cwm into a v30 ROM will cause a security error-aka brick the device. For v20 so GB ROMs and below it works fine. we'd have to inject a v20 bootloader+patched v30 kernel/boot.img+a recovery. Injecting the bootloader in deed works, but if it fails for ANY reason, it might permanently brick your device!

sry for asking, i seen your thread of v30b repack, i thought you made it with the CWM or TWRP recovery support, is there a differnece between the UAE rom and the one you repack?
btw my question is for pure knowledge, my country doesn't have ICS version, so i wonder if there is a big difference between those roms, cause except the local language and as far as i understood since i start diggin around here, i guess that maybe the baseband will be a bit different, what else may different between the regions of ROM
thanks devs

Always depends on the carrier, but mostly you mentioned the most important things. Sometimes apps are different, basband, language and here it seems they also updated the kernel source, since it is 3.0.8+ instead of just 3.0.8, but as long as we dont have sources, we cant really tell well basically you need to take the system.img, a new boot.img, with fixed cmdline args, repack it, like I did, flash it in cwm or twrp and that s it. No real magic behind it. You can probably even use my old blue led fix kernel. Just replace the system.img in my repack with this one. You ll find the tools to extract that stuff in Dev section. Bin/fls extractor and the bin extractor made by xonar. Then you ll have all partitions. Rename the system.img you get to system.img, replace it in my repack, flash, done.

hope this will help OP to make his version work with the UAE.
btw i think i will try and dig the bin file if there is ics for Egypt, may be ill find hebrew local there. but probably its just for the digging not for try to change anything in the ROM. cause i do have the knowledge
thanks again and again for the info. you guys teaching me a lot around here.

Hey guys!
Because there aren't very many ROMs for our 4X HD, I decided to port Slim Bean from HOX! There are no problems flashing this ROM but anyhow it doesn't boot. I would really like to give you my logcat, but taking a logcat didn't work, too. Maybe there are some developers, who can help? I would really like to see Slim Bean on 4X!

I've got bootloop on my Paranoid 3.X for our LG.
It booted once when I copied nearly all files from HOX rom ( of course aprat form kernel, vendor and some others) but it was unstable and stuff. I'll relase it in a week when it's working. My advice to you is to start from copying nearly all files form HOX rom ( it's so similiar to our LG) and gradually replace needed files from CM 10.1 to fix bugs, make wifi work and stuff.
I had succesfully booted paranoid but it was not usable, had FC's all the time. And when I ported it using standard file copy scheme it gave me bootloop. I'll try to find this sweet spot and will relase it.
Keep up your work, any new roms are aprecciated.
Well, how about compiling, not porting?
One thing I have seen before is people port a ROM for quickness then build it from source while we enjoy the port. Nothing wrong with porting if its a good ROM and its done properly, would do one myself if I knew how
Sent from my rooted P880
Now that my 64 bit Arch machine is working flawless maybe I'll start digging into compiling stuff from source But I will probably fail hard (baaasiiic C/C++ knowledge) let's hope not. But I don't see any sense in making people compile from source instead of porting. If they could do this they would ! But not everyone is a real dev , so be happy with ports they provide us !
Hey nice that more people care about our device! I know it's a little bit OT but I tried to port paranoid from hox to 4X and it also hangs at boot up (bootanimation is shown) ...
I used this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2232773
There had been no errors in cwm while installing!
I wiped data /cache partion /dalvik cache and format system before flashing....
maybe someone can help me/us

Sorry,
we can't tell you much about it. We need the ROM to check if you made a mistake.
From which device did you ported it? Does it has the same screen?
If not, then you need to resize every APK in the ROM or take a Paranoid ROM from a device which has the same screen.

I know, but my internet is slow, now it finished uploading! Here is the Link: https://www.box.com/files/0/f/839004648/1/f_7762315260
It's portet from HOX (same resolution also xhdpi) and it's paranoid 3.10! Both Roms are 4.2.2 (it's first cm nightly release for 4X as Base!)
HOX has also same cpu and gpu as 4X (tegra3) and so I guessed that it would be the best device to port from!
I tried to logcat while bootup, but adb don't recognize 4X HD (adb drivers uninstalled and reinstalled again!)
I wiped data factory reset /cache partion /dalvik cache and format system before flashing and data /cache after flashing...
No errors in cwm while installing...
I also tried point 8 from tutorial to copy libandroid_runtime.so to base rom and I tried to copy libandroid_servers.so and
libmedia_jni.so to base rom (thanks to tobixdev), but nothing helped - same: stuck at boot!
hope somebody can find the fault and fix it !

Hello everyone,
So I'm planning to "fix" my friend's Optimus 4X HD because the phone is super laggy and battery is extremely bad running the stock 20C ROM. I've tried flashing the official ProBam but the battery is still pretty bad and performance not that good. Given that ProBam is not supported properly in here, I'm assuming it may not have all the optimization offered by the P880-specific ROMs available around here.
However, I want to install something that would be sufficient for use without any noticeable issues. So it's not features I'm looking for but stability, performance and good battery life.
My question is, what do you guys suggest as a good ROM/Kernel combination which would work as a daily driver?
Also, I noticed there's an issue with compatibility between the latest CM nightlies and available kernels, would appreciate some advice on this.
Thanks for your time!
I recommend you Vanir Rom from 101713 newer version give me fc phone.
Deactivate all Animations and flash Demetris Play or Prime Kernel (i recommend download the toolbox from arararagi because it can increase charing speed and saturate the screen with colors then flash prime it is compitable.
You will have a snappy phone.

I flashed Vanir 101713 with Optimus Prime 2.70 as suggested by Nemeziz 56th. The phone is super snappy and battery seems much better so far. I faced issues with telephony as the phone struggled to connect to the mobile network until I loaded the modified RIL based on Flying_Bear's tutorial (thanks for that). Not sure if it would've worked eventually without any modifications, this is a bit confusing...
Another problem I faced today is that the screen refused to turn on after the alarm went off, I read this happened to other users as well. Is it a ROM issue or kernel?
Do you guys suggest I update to the latest Vanir nightly with AnyKernel Optimus Prime instead? If so, do I need to factory reset or is it safe to just dirty flash?

Should be fine to dirty flash.
However I assume you have unlocked the bootloader and flashed CWM (Or TWRP) so make a backup before you do, just in case.
Don't know if it's still the case but WWJB v008 kernel is incompatible with Vanir (even the Vanir specific-pack) so don't try that one.
There's an init.d script floating around somewhere that will fix CPUquiet on Anykernel Iodak, I'll see if I can find it for you.
Carbom ROM, Vanir and Probam can be used in a daily basis (They are in my order of preference). All of them with their default kernel cause many custom kernels are having some wakelock problems in later days....
Thanks for your input I might give Carbon a try, seems nice as well. But ProBam with its stock kernel is definitely a no-go for me, was horrible in my case.

I can't give you a straight answer on that sadly, I don't know enough about the different kernels to make a choice myself tbh.
I've tried them all, and see the different options in trickstermod but I have no idea how to test which one is better for me or even decide what I want in a kernel.
But anyway was just saying there's a fix for the CPUquiet if you want to try Iodak.
Try liquidsmooth -zaiben and slim bean also since they are great too.

no updates ? windows xp still have updates after a million years. ubuntu 12 were almost perfect and of course they have updates. everything has updates , dont think bad for updates
So there are many combinations of stable rom/kernel.
For me Slimbean 2.1 + OptimusPrime 2.7 or iodak8.5repacked works perfect.
And this software saved my 4X from selling out
