Where are my green bars and 4G icons? - T-Mobile LG G2x

Not sure why but like with the last leak, the 4G and signal bars stay white. Now from what I understand they go green after syncing with google as well as staying connected to google.
My account is sucked and all gapps are working just kind of perplexed why it does not show green.
Thanks!

For some reason, T-Mobile decided not to do it that way. Your phone is connected to google and is syncing, it just doesn't show the green. It kinda sucks, (even though I dig the green though!),but it is what it is.

I liked when it went green. Anyway to add it back?

I was under the impression that's a CM feature. Has it ever worked that way on stock roms?

It's a Gingerbread feature. It works the same with WiFi. It turns green when it has a reliable connection.

Thanks for your contribution.
Not to downplay it, but whats the point if its always green? no difference than its always grey, right?

I agree, thanks for trying but I don't see the point so much.

No, the green means an uninhibited connection to google servers. Sync will still work, doesn't mean it's working properly. Do a master reset and see if your apps auto download. Something is wrong, it's a feature of gingerbread to turn green when properly connected. No, TMO didn't decide anything, this hasn't made it throught TMO yet, LG just messed something up.

I'm not sure why they would leave it out. They either said "hey, it's not important", or it is just something they haven't enabled for this test release (see LG camera app).

EH, there's no point. It just looks better. haha. But thanks for being positive!

Has anyone just flashed the zip and kept the old baseband? Not used the updater? If so can you verify its still grey? Probably a shot in the dark but doesn't hurt to ask.

[LED] CM6 Led Settings Enabled CMParts.apk

http://android.erley.org/CMParts.apk
I've recompiled CMParts from git to enable support for changing the LED Notifications. Just download and install.
Before people go complaining, yes 90% of the settings don't work, and will never work on our phones. That's due to hardware limitations, not software issues. This is here for those that missed that working 10%. Will update with each new CM6 release, as long as I have a hero (being divested to AT&T).

Supposedly? Maybe? It's uninstallable so it wouldn't hurt to try and report back. I built it trying to solve a different issue, that it didn't solve. I figured it might be useful to others (especially those that used this in the nightlies when it was enabled).
okay so maybe i am having a brain fart but how in the hell do you install this i tried doing it from recovery but that didnt work so did i miss something i cant do it from in the phone as well ????

Just install using Astro
I don't think the trackball notifications will work with this, those are still locked. But this will let you change the LED notification settings (color, etc.)
Maybe in the OP we should put a list of working colors, although as far as I know it's just green and orange.

So would that .apk work with CM 6.1? I am still getting a solid color when my notification lights go off, even when I pick the blink frequency within handscent.
Thanks in advance for any help!

Same issue here. I called both verizon and htc... they gave me the same answer. It is a roll out issue. Apparently because its in phases... whatever. My first tbolt came down fine; this is a replacement for a broken power button and now nothing. but at least I still have free tether! HA HA fail/win you decide.
Drop down to 1X and then search for it. Once you find the update, switch back to 3G/4G to expedite the download. Worked on my girlfriend's Thunderbolt.

Yep! i was rooted up until yesterday. While rooted I checked for & successfully detected it. But I rejected. Did a full backup using TiB and ROMManager first then unrooted. Now that I am unrooted, I cannot detect the update anymore. Been trying for 24hrs.
Just going to give up and reroot using the rooted update.

dropping to 1X doesn't work for me. However, here's how you drop to 1X:
Dial *#*#4636#*#*
Then go to "Phone Info"
Scroll down and choose "CDMA Only" from the Drop Down. Note the setting before you change it so as to revert later on.
Good Luck and let us know if it works for you.

LED notification and brightness for stock 2.3.4?

On the new stock 2.3.4 that was just released, there are 2 features I miss greatly.. one is the dimming of the led lights.. and the other is using them as a notification. Has anyone found an app that works? I did find 1 notification app but from what I read, it sucks the battery down cuz it flashes.. can't do a steady light.
Thanks !
Did you try LG Touch LED Notification? It has steady light option.

There's a link in the thread I started about the application for notification toggles in this sub-forum. As to your question about the text things. Your phone lights up while you're texting? That's kind of normal don't you think. The screen coming on when the text comes in is a stock messaging thing. Nothing that can be done except installing a custom messaging application, as far as I know, I like that it lights up.

G2x signal bar questions

Hi, I just got my t-mobile g2x as a replacement phone from t-mobile
everything is fine, except the signal bar's color is always "WHITE/GREY" regardless 2G/4G, when I was using G2, it should be like green-ish.
Is that totally normal?
I am running stock 2.3.3, with t-mobile contract, and I definitely already sync/connect to google server (background data), because when I search a lot of ppl just saying "you are not connect to google".
Alright, another thing bugging me is coming out
The phone kept shows the screen before lock breifly, when I unlock the screen
Not solvble again?
It's LG's ****ty coding no way around it if you're on stock to my knowledge

Yup. Their crappy overlay directs the signal icons to the same icon for connected and non connected through XML. You have to go change it manually. The lock screen is due to their animations overlay... Their overlays are a nightmare and very VERY shoddy work. Their "devs" are more worried about sticking their name in code rather then actually coding. If you decompile their apps you will find tons of errors....

Green bars means you are connected to google Talk. It's has nothing to do with sync. Try signing into google Talk and see what happens. . Took me a while to figure it out too.

You're wrong, "green bars" mean you are synced with Google and you have an active data connection. Try flashing CM7 or CM9, your bars will change colors when synced with Google.
O yes, you are right. Just tested it. Cool.
It seemed to me that whenever I sign into gtalk my bars will go green. It turns out that is not the case. Learning something new everyday.

Status bar signal/wifi icon gone white on [ROM][JellyBean][4.1.1] Unofficial CM10

I have flashed JB CM10 on my infuse few days back. Just today, after a reboot, the signal and wifi icons went white from blue as shown in screenshot. Note, that all status bar icons were blue before reboot.
Anyone knows why? Thanks in advance.
I believe it has to do with it not being able to connect to google. Try entering the browser or check your google account in settings.

That's right. THANKS :good: I'm logged in to my work network and I know that there's some issue with push on gmail and other accounts when I'm connected to my work network. I just tried disconnecting from work wi-fi and signal icon goes back to blue.
Kinda weird, never had that issue with my stock GB. But, I'm okay with white icons as it's not causing any trouble, except a little distraction.
Thanks again.
