Re: CM 10.1 for Canadian Optimus G

When someone has the time, can he try to wipe everything then reinstall without restoring apps ? Cause here i have 0 problem. Got all my text, notification light stays on, never got a wifi reboot nor a SOD. That was for the whole weekend, i got my phone Saturday morning.

Trying now on your March 18 build.

Phone has now black screened. Will not boot and will not enter recovery no matter what. LG Logo --> Black screen.

I have managed to get it into download mode, going to have to LGNPST again..

Re: CM 10.1 for Canadian Optimus G

Did a clean install. Only installed tapatalk. 3 hours later no issues at all.

Can I flash gapps now?

Firstly, fantastic work. I hope I can contribute as I become more familiar with the inner workings of Android.
I've had this rom on since early this afternoon, I had one sod shortly after installation on an incoming text message. I turned off the notification LED and hasn't happened since.
I'll try for a day or so without LED, and then I'll turn LED back on and see if anything changes. I know its anecdotal but inconsistent behaviour is a pain to diagnose.
However during my drive home it was acting very weird, rebooting after locking the screen a few times.
Now that I've been at home for the last 2 hours, no issues...
I'm new to Android but I'm not new to Linux or programming, if there's any way I can help isolate these issues, let me know what I should do.
Keep up the great work!

We deducted the problem was either by leaving wifi or entering Network internet (3G/4G). I am trying to diagnose that at the moment. I will see if there is a new baseband in the jb kdz or if there is new wifi files. We will see from that point what we can do.

Thanks for the quick reply!
If you need any testers/debuggers I'll do what I can.

I'm psyched that you finally got your phone Chad. Let the genius continue! This last week has been a horrible week to have a loaner galaxy s.

Re: CM 10.1 for Canadian Optimus G

For our kernel issues,you might want to have a look at Houstonn's rootbox ROM. It works very well with no crashes and LED works as well.

Also, I've got your cm10.1 running with Houstonns Rogers modem update and so far not one sod or wacky reboot during my drive home.
Both roms are very impressive!
Keep up the great work!

haha, i think you are the first one to say this rom is more stable.

I had a hard lockup on Houstonns, and I'm getting screen flickering which I've mentioned in his thread.
Only thing I've noticed is no NFC on yours, I've yet to test the LED though.

I edited that out only because after re-reading it, I didn't want to offend anyone because both your roms are extremely valuable to owners of these phones!

Ok, i got an update. I'm doing some test. I'm able to make the phone crash as i want. However, for the wifi crash, i can't get it when bluetooth is activated. Can anyone who usually have the phone crashing when leaving the phone there with wifi on but not connected activate bluetooth and see if it still crash.


Edit:
I'm probably wrong, but my bet on that is that the crash happen when the RIVA controller (taking care of radio, wifi, bluetooth, etc) goes into sleep. Maybe mako controller has some feature our phone doesnt have. Turning bluetooth on might prevent that controller to go in sleep, thus avoiding the problem. The funniest part with that problem is that it leave no trace in logs. looking at dmsg would prevent your phone to go in sleep so you can't look at it live. Last_kmsg, serving exactly that purpose show the reboot like it was normal. I get the feeling this will even be funnier to catch why it crash than i tought.

Re: CM 10.1 for Canadian Optimus G

Just wanted to drop you an update, I got one crash reboot when I was testing my mobile data at home. BT and WiFi were turned off, just mobile data flipping back and forth between 3g h+. LTE is not good in my house.

    Hi, This is a continuation of the CM 10.1 nightlies thread. Things has been moving on and we are now at CM 10.2. I have been working with xboxfanj, houstonn and bbelos to bring you this. Again, this is based on mako with adapted change for optimus G. This time we are even more in sync with CAF (Code Aurora Forum).

    What is working
    Everything.

    What is not working

    You tell me.

    Here are the repo needed for our devices :

    https://github.com/TeamPlaceHolder

    Of course, you have to be rooted, to have bootloader unlocked and a working recovery to flash this custom rom.

    DO NOT FLASH NEXUS 4 KENEL MADE BY 3rd PARTY. THIS WILL MOSTLY PERMA BRICK YOUR DEVICE.

    This is simply because people tend to use partition number and not by-name and our partition is different than nexus 4 ones. i.e. The rpm partition on our phone is the boot partition on nexus 4. So flashing a custom kernel will flash a boot.img in your rpm partition and then you are bricked. You have been warned.

    Like usually, i can't be hold responsible if you damage your phone during any of the process described in this thread.

    Thanks :

    Thracky and houstonn who also works with me on this.

    and a special thanks to shelnutt2 who shown me how to fix 3G
    and juggie who found out the good file to change to get wifi working

    Download

    All the downloads will go here :

    ribs.bbqdroid.org

    Use geeb package

    Gapps package :

    http://goo.im/gapps

    Modem :

    There is a newer modem now available (From JB update. Houstonn and I extracted each of them and made flashable so you don't need to do the painful process of kdz only to get a new baseband)

    MAKE SURE TO NOT FLASH KOREAN MODEM.

    How to intall that rom ?

    This require you to have TWRP or CWM already installed on your device. I recommand the former. On our device, this mainly mean you have rooted your phone and unlocked the bootloader.

    Apparently, it seems these instruction where not clear enough. So I'll try to make them dumbproof. If you are not following these instruction and it doesnt work, dont expect support. It's like buying a cake mix where you only need to add milk and call the company saying their product is bull****, you added water and only got a brick. To add to this metaphor, Asking if it's because you used CWM instead of twrp or reverse is like saying : Did it didnt work because i used a fork instead of a whip to mix it ?

    To flash this rom, you have to be on older Bootloader. You can alternatively flash the bootloader i linked in this thread. Read the post carefully before you flash.

    1. Download file in the download section.
    2. Put the rom AND the gapps on your internal SDCard.
    3. Reboot into recovery.
    4. Flash CM rom.
    5. Flash Gapps package.
    6. DO A FACTORY RESET (EMPHASIS HERE)
    7. reboot into system

    There is a new build up. It has fixed bluetooth and has latest cm changes.

    Is there ANY WAY you can add to this the changes in faux123's Nexus 4 kernel (see here http://rootzwiki.com/topic/36722-kernellinux-340-makojbuvoctuncifsv001-nov-30/#entry1032460) to reduce the horrible msm_hsic_host wakelock battery drain?

    You sir, deserve a punch in the face. Come on. We are not at optimizing things. I'm still trying to figure out what is working or not. This is really stupid.

    Note to all other user : I WILL NOT ACCEPT FEATURE BEFORE EVERY PROBLEMS HAVE BEEN SOLVED.

    on a related note to your question, if you would have read carefully, you would have seen that i already use faux123 kernel . . .
    Anyway, this is not going to be the case soon.
