I would like to know what Tonyp thinks about this mod.. I really don't understand how this mod can change drastically the performance since already Tonyp and Pengus did a lot for this phone.. I'm a little skeptical

Radio Broken??

I can't seem to get my radio working, my phone wont connect to T-Mobile who is my service provider. Is there any steps I should take or whats up with that? I am currently using the latest bcm4329 build. Also is it better to use the bcm4329 or bcmhd (I don't understand the difference, someone explain it to me)? Is the battery meter normally not working and the phone always displaying 999% or is that just for me? I would like to recommend that when you dim the screen that the notification/menu buttons dim as well.

Wifi Tethering

Hi,
I found this ROM like the best for Optimus 2x. It has just one issue - Wifi Tethering.
Did anyone discovered how to run Wifi Tethering?
I would like to use this rom but I need Tethering.

Thx

Wifi tethering was reported by some to work in the cm-11-20141024-UNOFFICIAL-p990.3.1.zip build, but not to be working in the latest build. No password security as of yet, though.
I think I read that the trick was to activate wifi tethering and then reboot the phone if it didn't initially work.

    Notes

    First and foremost: I am not the person behind CM11 releases,some days ago @tonyp said that he wanted that someone update his thread,so i offer myself. As of right now, there are several devs building CM11 for this phone. This leads to more builds and more builds to test. The best you can do is to test for yourself and see what suits your needs. All is based on tonyp's source because he can't momentarily build himself. The build in this thread can be used with two kernels :
    -3.1 alpha 27 kernel by @pengus77(included in 27 may build),or 3.1 kernel fork by @Firtecy(built in with bcmhd driver)
    -2.6.39.4 kernel by @pengus77 to use with 01/06/2014 build by @BS86 based on @tonyp sources(built in with bcm4329 driver)

    Please respect the devs and their effort put into this. If you have questions, ask politely, if you find unknown bugs, please report with logs . Please don't asking for an ETA,when all is ready our devs will share with us :)

    I've updated and pushed my sources to the newest stable snapshot, so you can hopefully expect a new build based on M7 soon.
    M7 changed: http://www.cyanogenmod.org/blog/cyanogenmod-11-0-m7-released
    Note that it's still 4.4.2, CM will merge 4.4.3. in their next release.

    I've decided to remove the included Performance Control and just ship the prebuild Performance Control instead, I think that might be the best solution for now as the enforced 1000 Mhz limit while booting is something that should be kept in my opinion to prevent problems for certain people.


    Maybe you can find an option in your launcher to activate it or add "ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1" to your build.prop.
    While I think most of your tips are reasonable this particular build.prop edit doesn't work any more since GB ages :laugh:

    Are people having lots of problems with launcher redraws? Then I can reinclude my old CM10.2 hack to increase it's running priority.

        removed torch app (buildbreaker)
    Q&A
    Are Gapps included or i should download it?
    Gapps are already included,because tony made a slim gapps package included in his sources.

    Can you please add this and that feature?
    The builds you find here are with clean CM11 sources. That is what you can expect. Requests may be welcome, but do not expect it to be bloated with a ton of features.
    How can i install oldbl version?
    You should use cwm6.0.3.1 available directly from clockworkmod to flash it - twrp is apparently not usable!

    Oh well, I don't feel like making 10 useless posts, so I'll just upload the zip from syslog here. :) Now to find some threads that I might be able to contrubute to! :D

    So the problem is that my SIM card disconnects so that I have to enter my PIN again. I can see some errors in the log file, but I've no idea how to interpret them
    Me neither.
    Actually what's happening to you is the result of a bug fix I committed quite some time ago. Before that fix your signal would have shown as connected even if it wasn't anymore. It happens for a handful of people, but thanks to the "fix" you at least get the pin request and don't think that you still have signal.
    The reason is a sim crash, but I don't know what's causing it or how to fix it.

    P.S.: yes, I'm subscribed to this thread (and a trillion others), so don't worry.

    CM 11 speed up

    So I was facing extreme slowdown on CM11 & Firtecy 3.1.10 Kernel (32 MB RH), everywhere in the ROM, using dialer, apps, lockscreen, camera etc.

    To speed up, this is what I did:
    1. (Using Titanium Backup or Rom Toolbox) Froze unused apps like Cell broadcast, Clock (use timely instead), Email, Exchange Services, File Manager (Use Es File Explorer), Voice+, VPN dialogue, Whisper push. This frees up some RAM.
    2. Use Performance Control app 2.1.19 from this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2444376.
    The one included in settings is unusable for now. Its settings get reverted after each reboot.

    Make following changes in each tab
    a) Set CPU max frequency to 1200.
    b) Set multicore power saving to 'On'. Also accesible in Kowalski manager.
    c) Fast charge - depends on you. Also accesible in Kowalski manager.
    d) Minfree taskkiller presets - Agressive. You can also check here if Zram is active. Leave it at 18%.
    e) Voltage - leave it unchanged. Undervolting hardly gives you powersaving, but stability might become an issue.
    f) SD read ahead to 1024 kb. Also accesible in Kowalski manager.
    Also here go to VM settings, and set
    dirty_background_ratio=15
    dirty_ratio=30
    swappiness=30
    (I remember these settings from @tonyp post in Cm10.1 thread. He can further advise if we need to fine tune these settings for CM11)

    Do enable "Set on boot" for each setting page changed. Restart and you have responsive phone.
    Screenshots attached for reference. Enjoy CM11 :D

    P.S. Memory Minfree settings can be further finetuned. Hence waiting for Tony's inputs.
