CM10.1 based ROM #8 - [4.2.2] Broken: radio, batt indicator, GPS

My assumption is that this kernel does not rely on nvrm_daemon while CM10 hackfest does...no idea how to rectify that.
Exactly what i said before we need updated kernel and drivers we dont have nvrm deamon anymore. Old builds utilize that.

I can't remember how to get into fastboot, but i used to compile kernels for the samsung intercept, and this guide helped tons with decompiling boot imgs, and to compile the zimage into a boot.img, am i right on saying you need an initramfs to go with it?
When creating the boot.img, make sure to add --base 0x10000000 to the mkbootimg command or it won't work. Also, the /dev/ names have changed. Try creating aliases to the old ones for the new kernel to work? Just a thought.
The original ICS booting on this device actually used a CM7 kernel. I know because I swapped the ICS kernel with the CM7 kernel to get it to boot. So I think older builds won't make much of a difference. It's most likely just the kernel.
Edit: mkbootimg --kernel zImage --ramdisk ramdisk -o boot.img --base 0x10000000

Alright here is the boot.img compiled using cm 7 ramdisk and kernel provided by OP . use at your own risk

Thanks for giving the G2x community hope, guys.
How do I flash the .img? I feel like I should know this considering I've been flashing stuff for a while now. I'm embarrassed.

Don't feel bad. I myself can remeber how to get into fastboot mode so I have to go back to linux to move the img into a zipfile once im done with windows. I use evernote for my classes so lately I have been in windows more often.
I just tried it, it doesn't boot
Doesn't get past the first LG logo, doesn't show up as USB. Doing the same thing as the original ICS did.
You should be able to just drop your zImage and wireless.ko file in this zip and it'll generate the boot.img for you when you install update from sd.

119Below you'll find a whole rom for p999 based on the jellybean sources from CM repo compiled earlier in the week, using the modified defconfig with minor tweaks from cyanogenmod_p990_defconfig and a bootloader patch from wkpark (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=33993473&postcount=636) applied. One day I noticed this patch on one of my sdcards and decided to apply it to my build, that patch actually has pushed me to a point where there was a black screen with operational adb, all the builds before that were useless, then I rolled a whole cm10 around it.
The black screen was due to missing ICS vendor blobs, and after throwing in the vendor_blobs from p990, the whole thing just magically booted up with almost everything functional (sdcard issues were due to a typo, and wifi due to wifi module getting overwritten by prebuilt one), but the cell radio and the battery meter. There was no other code-voodoo needed to get anything going up to this point. Naberus's patches were for brightness inclusion (P999 was missing in the ifdefs), and storage fix and gpio (if I recall correctly). The latest is being built from the plain CM10 kernel with addition of wkpark's patch. Yes, it is buttery smooth out of the box.
I'm trying to roll CM10.1 for the #7, so please be patient.
UPDATE: I got CM10.1 (4.2.2) built.
If anyone feels adventurous, and knows what to do with these things below, please let me know. If you'll see some obvious mistakes in any of the things below, don't be a stranger and post your findings in the thread
Oh, and one last thing, please "no (log)cat fights girls"!

Added some extra blobs from p999, and kineto. You can disable kineto manually if it starts crashing on you.
build.,prop adjusted to point to librilswitch.so. Some patches from Naberus merged, and also his MDM6600 changes.

This would not happen without the CM kernel by RC and wkpark's patch, and the people who made comments in this thread.41I just wanted to say that I'm still alive. I've actually just kicked off a fresh build with some stuff to test. I've also added GAN Virtual Ethernet Device, so it might be a bit closer on a wifi-calling front. We'll see what's up in the morning when the whole thing (ROM and the kernel) finishes building on my microserver.40Re: CM10.1 based ROM #7 - Works: Camera, HWA, wifi, sdcard, Broken: radio, batt indic
Testing an idea, I had earlier today, that might get us the radio working... New build kicked off. I'll share more details over the weekend if any of that works.39Wow who deleted all those posts here? What's goin on here....
Anyway.... mazout and adampk ... what's ur plan from now on... r u guys leaving it here or gonna push it further?.... btw adampk ... did u test ur last changes.... also if u guys are gonna push forward u have two things that u have.... a hackfest with radio working but no hwa and ur own rom with hwa working but no radio.... so if u r gonna push it further u will have to decide ....as people said.... (deleted posts) u guys have already pull out a miracle here... so any plans u guys will set will be welcomed

I won't quit the project without having tried anything. I have some ideas...37Started building v7 some time last night after replacing some parts with stuff from p990 kernel sources. Once I'm confident it's working any better, I'll update the OP and push my repo changes to github.
