G2x - 6 days and counting with no lockups/reboots

I just wanted to throw my 2 cents in for those who have had problems with their G2X rebooting or locking up and requiring a reboot. I update daily to the latest Cyanogenmod build and have already been going on strong for 6 days without a single reboot/lockup.
Before this, I was experiencing multiple lockups/reboots throughout the day.
Except for battery life, I'm happy with my G2X now.

Ditto.
CM7 is what brought sanity back to the phone for me.
Only reason I reboot is because I flash the dam thing every night.
Can't wait for the RC or stable release.

I guess I must be a lucky one. I haven't had any reboots or issues like that with my G2x. The only reason I rooted this phone was because I suspected the bloat was causing my Audio to studder. After rooting and installing then Ultimate G2x Rom with faux's stock kernel, I can say this g2x is now one of the best phones I have owned. I can't help but wonder how many issues with rebooting and what not would be solved by removing the Tmobile and LG crapware they put on this phone.

Same setup here and no reboots or freezes or anything like that.

I'm running the stock ROM rooted with the faux kernel and I've NEVER had any rebooting or freezing.

Same with me, stock with faux. I also applied paul's fix.
Are you using the pre-UVed kernel? Did you UV even more? Right now I'm undervolted -25mV in addition to the -50mV in the kernel

The only rom that gave me trouble was the unofficial GB leak. Every few hours the phone would be off in my pocket.
All other roms ran like a champ. Been running CM7 since #0, only straying to try other roms for a day. No complaints.
To OP, CM has always been rough on battery life. Try using another kernel and you should get more life.

Eagles blood 1.0.5 ftwwwwwww... All great roms out

Quick noob question...what do i wipe if I just want to flash a kernel over stock?

Yes, I've already installed eagles blood 2.3.4 but went back to my stock setup...I still want to try out other setups to see what I like best...another noob question lol
Can I just backup my stock kernel and flash it if I dont like the custom kernel? Or do I have to restore my whole stock rooted backup? (my nandroid backup I think is the correct term) thanks! Sorry for my newbiness hehe

yea u would def have to restore your stock nandroid backup, because no one has just the stock kernel from lg u can flash, so yes u would restore the backup, then if u wanted to flash the kernel wipe cache and dalvik then install fauxs kernel and your good.......also and if u dont like it which u probably will, just restore the backup again, and u should really try ebfroyo 1.0.5 it looks just like gingerbread and u have the stock camera app and its so quick, awesome rom

Im def going to give ebfroyo a try! Thanks for the help bro!

[Q] MIUI Problems

I switched to MIUI a few days days ago, and I've been loving it so far. But I have been having a couple of issues.
Every so often my phone restarts for no reason. Sometimes when I'm in the settings application. Other times when I'm playing music. Regardless which music app I'm using, it'll restart my phone after 15-20 minutes.
My other issue is that my phone thinks its a Desire HD. is there a way to change
that? I can't access certain apps in the market because of that.
Thanks in advance.

I would try reflashing the rom. What kernal are you using with the rom and which version of MIUI? There is a discussion somewhere in the MIUI thread about changing the description in the build.prop file to make it show as an Inspire

I'm running miui 1.7.23. Not sure which kernel, probably the stock one. I haven't really read anything about the differences or why one is better than another.

It sounds like a bad rom flash. I would wipe data, cache, and dalvik cache. Then I would reload the rom. The stock kernal that comes with the latest rom needs to be updated with the latest Lordmod kern but it should not cause the problems you are having.

thats a problem with many of the new modem leaks

Just installed your rom this evening (1.5) so far so good! I did install infusion 1.1 for oc, Iam having a market problem went to download a 20+ Meg file and it told me I was out of space, any ideas?
Good job by the way!

Im usually goid with this stuff. I portrd several roms to other phones... easy things is root..
Made a quick froyo rom to use.. installed cm7... all easy.. i m actually sending this from a rom a made for the thrill... confused
For some reason i flash entropy kernel. Go into cwm and wipe everything (red cwm) then flash your rom and it just hangs at samsung. Cannot read anything on my computer for logs to see y it hangs... i have installed from both stock and then tried with cm7 first... i can usually figure this stuff out.. i have uaed odin 7 times with the same results at the end
Sent from my LG-P925 using XDA App

Well idk why it would be hanging at the Samsung screen....this is NOT a port....This is a native Infuse rom ...shouldn't have any issues flashing from any rom or Cwm

great job¡
I've flashed quite a few ROMs this past couple of weeks, including miui and the unofficial CM7 compile, but this one is my favorite so far. I'm not having the data dropoff and intermittent. back key failure I had with those ROM s.
I'm assuming that's there's no way to get the T-Mobile Theme Chooser on this ROM? I've had some success with the theme kitchen so far,but still a long way to go.
Great job on this and Good luck, we're all counting on you

Too new to post in Dev...
I saw that a lot of people are having trouble with apps sorting alphabetically in the app drawer. It wouldn't work for me until I chose to save and restart right after I set it. Then the phone rebooted and now were are A..Z.
LOVE THIS ROM! Awesome work Dman!

Thank you

Do you recommend any tweaks, adrenaline? I believe Entropy doesn't like it.
Love the rom, now I can watch media hub movie.
Big thanks for everything you have done.

Couple of questions here. First though, I love the rom, and I think it is off to a great start. Keep up the good work! Now, my questions pertain to the tw4 launcher. First question may be dumb, but no matter what I do, I cant get it to sort apps in the app drawer by name. Is this a glitch or am I just dumb? Also, I flashed it yesterday and installed all my apps and it was working great for a while, then the tw4 launcher kept force closing on me and crashing the system and rebooting. I dont know if this is a problem with the rom or an app, but I haven't downloaded many new apps recently. Also, I was getting reboots on most other roms that I tried recently. Or could it be a problem with my phone? btw, I completely cleaned everything and wiped everything and started from scratch before installing this rom.

How can I tell if I've downloaded the right zip file? I used the link in the original post which took me to Multiupload.com and I downloaded CatyRom_v1.5_Infuse.zip. When I flashed my phone, it doesn't look quite like the screenshots. There is only an Applications icon at the bottom of the screen and it seems like the original home screen is now to the far right.
Just seems like somethings wrong, or it didn't get flashed correctly!
I am still learning and this is my first Droid. My background is in BB's and so far I've learned a lot playing around with my Infuse.
Any ideas or suggestions?

1.5 is the update...I changed launchers...screenshots are v1.0

Answering a call

Hi all
When I receive a call, it takes ages until I see it on the screen, so I can actually reply it. Is there anything that I can do to improve it? This is the thing that annoys me the most.
thanks

People only conplain of that lag when they are custom roms first time on stock rom(correct me if im wrong dont have a fantastic memory ) maybe try a reflash? Or OC or wiping data and/or wiping cache and dalvik cache
EDIT: i dont believe wiping cache and dalvik cache will help but try it out first and if it works you'll save yourself the trouble of restoring data after a reflash or factory reset

what about any mods of your own like scripts kernel flashing etc
If so reflash stock jpu
I am currently using stock jpu and I think its fast even better than certain custom ROMs

I don't really know. I just have OC kernel, the rest is all stock rom. The problem is that the stock kernel (more stable from my point of view) haven't got the recovery, so I flashed g3mod kernel... actually my phone is fast, stable and i have no FC's at all, the only problem is that, but is a very important problem as is actually a phone! not anything else... would check for any improvement...
thanks a lot anyway

If everything is stock and unrooted like mine, then calls work perfectly. They just lag a little when ending the call.

why my infuse is slow with 2.3 rom.

hi i have a question when i upgrade to a rom gingerbread 2.3 my cellphone don`t run games like asphalt 6.is only my cellphone is what i want to know thanks

I would try reflashing the rom Remember to wipe/factory restore, wipe cache,fix permissions and install your rom
