[DISCUSSION] Cyanogenmod 9 (Android 4.0.3) for Optimus One

[optimus x]

Since the development section is becoming all too over saturated with general discussion. This thread is meant to help users of ICS 4.0.3 by Lupohirp. While this is a beta, I think that it's stable enough for anyone looking for the ICS experience to use daily.


NOTE: UNRESOLVED APN ISSUES WITH T-MOBILE (NO DATA, WIFI ONLY)


BETA 3 CHANGELOG:
(Released 14/2/2012)

FULL OPENGL RENDERING
3D
MIC FIXED
ENABLED GENLOCK SUPPORT IN KERNEL (A Precursor for developers to fix Camera, NOTE: CAMERA IS NOT YET FUNCTIONAL)
CPU SET ON BOOT FIXED



Install:
http://ics4p500.blogspot.com/
Wipe data/ factory reset
Wipe Cache
Advanced>Wipe Dalvik
Reboot System

Reboot into Recovery
Flash this version of GAPPS (FULLY Tested and working specifically on this ROM)

Reboot and enjoy Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.3 on your Optimus one.




EDIT: FOR BETA2 USERS ONLY
Flash this Microphone/ Audio fix (thanks to cyrix.vs)
Mirror
(To enable voice through apps such as Skype, Google Voice, guitar tuner/ anything that isn't a standard phone call that requires use of your microphone)


OPTIONAL (Recommended) Kernel:
Franco3 kernel (2.35 kernel with kgsl drivers backported from 3.0 or 3.1 kernel)


Current bugs:

Please remember this is still in the early beta stages. It is stable enough to be used as a daily ROM, but there may be small issues. Please report them and I will update this thread with known bugs.

Camera does not connect (_Arjen_ is currently in the process of re-writing camera driver.)

Stock browser has been known to glitch out ( Temporary Fix: Install Browser+ )

Stock ICS Live Wallpapers do not work
(Live Wallpapers from market or elsewhere install and work perfectly fine though)

Audio problems with Speaker/Bluetooth Low Sound Volume ( Missing file libraries, Will probably be fixed in Beta3)

Mono Audio instead of Stereo
(Will probably be fixed in Beta3)

Audio Player Bug
(CM9 Music App plays through speaker occasionally after calls, PowerAMP auto-plays whenever a headset is plugged in) (PowerAMP is more manageable imo)


APN issues (Connecting to 3G/4G through T-Mobile & Vodafone)

Overclocking/ CPU Settings:
Conservative
480/ 748 (things get unstable at 768 and higher on my device)

Recommended Apps for ICS:


AirDroid (wirelessly manage & control your Android device from a web browser Over-The-Air. No more USB needed)

Keyboard:
Swype Beta

Thanks guys. Could you guys post general tips / settings / issues that aren't covered in my initial post so that I can update this thread?

Like battery life, Personal preferences of Governors and Overclock frequency, etc

Also add the Franco3 kernel to your first post.
Its a 2.35 kernel with kgsl drivers backported from 3.0 or 3.1 kernel

Unfortunately not, I just installed it earlier today to test it out as an alternative to Opera. Browser+ does work well and it is the one I'm currently using.

Looks great, maybe I will include it in my ICS build to replace stock browser

It only has something extra, I don't think it is that much, but not a bad idea

Updated... I didn't know there was a Franco Kernel for ICS. I just flashed it, and it's much smoother than the original kernel that came preinstalled (of course it is a Franco Kernel so that's pretty much expected)

Not yet, current release is build for armv7, but perhaps someone builds a version for armv6 when all code is merged into Chromium.

It's a kernel Lupohirp build using Franco's sources.
If I'm right it this version will be stock kernel for next beta-release.

Yeah I figured that. Franco isn't developing for Optimus One anymore as far as I know, But I'm glad that Lupohirp modified Franco's kernel.

Good idea. I'm liking ICS Browser+ so far. Stock browser is usually the first thing I drop with a new rom. Great job Arjen!!

Yes I am using T-Mobile (Optimus T) and have had no issues with it.

 

[Jrhodes85]

Is that so...ill try it out...one last question...its not a good idea to flash back to v10e while still running cm9 ? Wouldn't you first have to flash an old BB rom than flash the old baseband

I flashed new baseband first, then did a clean install of CM9.
If you flashed back to OldBB while using CM9 you shouldn't have any Data or Phone Signal.
