Do not update faux kernal!! 2.5.1

Im having issues that the lockscreen is freezing up so i have to pull out the battery to make it work again

You can't make such a bold statement, and not include info like what ROM you're running and other relevant info. There's also no need to start a new thread...there's already a thread on the Gingerbread kernel in the development section.

So, because you're having problems, you want to warn everyone on problems that no one else is having??..
Faux's kernels are working just fine for me.

Faux's Kernels are fine. Update and don't listen to this Guy.

WOW. Really, Really ???
Running without a kernel...That's amazing...
Faux's kernels are rock solid...Running 2.5.1 since release and NO issues...

then why has my mytouch freezing alot when i get it out of sleep

Plus i am on RoyalGinger V1.6

OP is an idiot. Faux kernel works fantastic. If you have problem with the rom, ask in the rom thread. Don't try and talk about something you don't understand.

Had problems with it the other day. Running stock rom. Kept losing signal and data. Wifi stopped after about 10 minutes and had to restart the phone just to get it working again. Went back to what I was using before and problem went away.
Not sure what the real deal was as I have NEVER had a problem with his kernal.

The kernel being discussed here is faux's Gingerbread version.

Wouldn't it be great if there was a Mytouch 4G forum that was specifically for roms, kernals, and any other type of hacking? Oh wait there is one and this thread is in the wrong forum.

you're a retard.. the reason why your phone is freezing on lockscreen, is cause you either have setcpu installed & have your screen off settings too low! don't have Max set below 368, which 245 freezes your phone! set min& Max to 368 and you will not get any freeze ups and save a lot of battery also! try it!
just don't make a thread about smashing someone's kernal who works so hard to make it for us! faux has great kernals, & you should give him the credit.

Lol sorry. Was on latest cm when tried it. Long day forgot what all I went through with this. Went back to stock rom after it was screwing up. Prolly try again with cm and this kernal. Think maybe it was a bad download causing the problem for me. Although would think I would get some kind of error when installing it.

First check whatever Rom is fully downloaded. Then check to make sure you fully downloaded the kernel. Make sure you have the proper kernel for your rom. Make sure you wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache. Then install the proper kernel when it boots up let everything load for 4-5 minutes then reboot. If your using a low voltage version try stock version. Also use the cfs kernel and not bfs since your phone is lagging.

G2x running stock froyo, Trinity kernal, and pimp my CPU BT toggle turns phone off?

My phone is running great but I can't turn off my Bluetooth and I don't want it eating battery for no reason. Whenever I attempt to turn it off it shuts my phone off instead (whether I do it through a widget or settings) If anyone has experiences this issue please help me out. Thank you guys.

And stock rom as in? Try flashing eb 1.04... also make sure u have the right kernel.... You might have downloaded a gb kernel by mistake

Which Trinity kernel are you using? Right now there aren't any listed for stock ROM.
Also as has already been said this should be in a different section.

If he really flashed trinity on a stock rom and that's the only problem then someone should let Morfic know, maybe we can finally get a stock OC kernal, I've been waiting for one since I got the phone.

Yea I did, and the bluetooth issue comes about AFTER overclocking with pimpmycpu. I tried uninstalling but the problem doesn't go away so I went back to stock with Paul's Patch and everything is fine. Kinda sucks because my phone was real fast. Also when Paul's Patch and Trinity are applied together I wasn't getting sound at boot animation and I'm OCD so it did bother me lol
and if you guys are wondering I flashed the 2 following trinity versions: (without paul's patch and still got the bluetooth issue)
Trinity15 G2x - EB1.04 Froyo - EXT4 - Vibrator works, usb mounting might not
Trinity15 G2x - EB104F - EXT4 - vibrator works (new 5/16/2011), possibly usb mounting doesn't work
Usb mounting didn't work but all you need is a Multi-Mount SD card application and you're good.
UPDATE: Just redid my phone to complete stock and it seems that the bluetooth issue is still there, I think I found exactly where it's coming from and has nothing to do with the kernal or the patch. the issue comes up only after I restored my application data and apks with my backup pro so I'm guessing something is corrupt "/

mods...please move this thread
and when someone posts in the wrong section,can we refrain from answering please? all it does is create more clutter.

Cannot Install Custom Kernel

This is a strange problem that I only started to have once I installed Team Nekkid 7.2 RC dated 3/29.
I can flash the ROM no problem, wipe dalvik and fix permissions and I'm good to go without any issues. But if I flash the ROM, then either morfic or faux kernel, then gapps, when I go to wipe dalvik, all I get is a quick screen flash with no option to actually wipe dalvik.
I go back and wipe the overall cache completely, fix permissions, the reboot. I am now stuck at the morfic boot animation until i pull battery.
If i try to install a Faux kernel, same thing happens with dalvik, but gets stuck at the blue LG screen.
Once i battery pull and get back to CWM, i wipe everything, reflash ROM and gapps, wipe dalvik and fix permissions no problem and boot up into whatever ROM i choose.
EDIT: Went back and flashed Bionix 1.4.1 and was able to flash a Faux kernel and wipe dalvik. Booting up this ROM now.
I also have NO problem with ICS ROMS/kernels.

When you say NO PROBLEMS with ICS ROMs, does that include Google Maps and the stock browser working perfectly??
Which ICS ROMs have you tried? How is battery life?
Thanks!

Flash kernel last, and redownload the kernels!

I did all of that. I flashed the kernel before and after gapps but end up with the same result.
I have a feeling there is an issue with the CWM since I am constantly flashing roms/kernels and have never had these problems before. I'm at work so I cant use the Nvidia tool to flash CWM so I have to wait until I get home.

I usually just follow the instructions precisely by the OP. (Wiping/formatting, flashing rom, gapps, restart + let 10 min stand if required by OP) I have not installed another kernel that what the ROM has included. Should I try that? If yes, which one? I currently have EGB AOSP ICS 4.0.4
[UPDATE] Ok I got it now. Just read your last message

Short answer: yes, install a different ROM
Long answer: go to the developing section of the G2X forums and find out the info with the countless threads.

I've tried 3 different ICS roms and read hundreds of posts and found nothing that would fix the maps and browser issues. I guess I have to wait a bit more for the devs to work on them. Maybe the lack of drivers is the problem.

Look for Owain's Unnoficial Build 55 thread, and use Firefox browser, that is the most complete ICS ROM and Firefox doesnt have the rotation problem.

My main concern is Google Maps not working properly. I rely on it in my job a lot and can't have it blanking out on me like that.
I've tried the replacement solution for the stock browser - I installed Dolphin HD. I'll try Firefox, though. Haven't used that on a phone since I had the Nokia N900 - Ah, the good times when I still believed in Nokia

If the maps shows up and then goes blank, simply close the map and re-open it.

I know the close/reopen "trick," but I thought there might be a ROM that just has the Gmaps working. If there's none I'll just wait. Is Owain's unofficial 55 based on 4.0.4 ? I'm also going through his thread now in hopes of finding it. I'll probably just flash and see then.

Try to update to 2012 Baseband

Hello Everyone,
I am trying to update to the new baseband but everytime I run the fix my phone still says I have the july 2011 baseband. I am running Hellfire 1.8 and I tried to do it the way it says by flashing ROM, FIX, then GAPPS. but to no avail.
Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

I just got finished doing this, WOW the GPS has a fast lock now. Make sure that you flash the BB FIX after you restore you HFP

Guys I cant install the lg update tool. gets stuck around 10% then just stops. Im already having issues and I havent even gotten to the phone part lol help? tried rebooting laptop, running w7 64bit T420 8g RAM. I dont think its my laptop..
UPDATE: added screenshot of where setup gets stuck.

follow this thread. works like a charm. make a backup of your device first.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1248644
the steps in this thread will restore a stock gingerbread rom. when that is done, use nvflash and put the stock recovery back on as well
reboot your phone and do the update that way (over the air). look in About Phone under system settings and you will see a menu item at the top called software update (or something similar). use that to update your phone, you will end up with GB 2.3.4 and the new baseband
if you want to use a custom rom, eaglesblood build 4 has support for the new baseband built in or you can use CM7 RC3 or a currently nightly, or you can use either kwes or buru's roms, OR owain has a bb update zip that is supposed to work on any rom
good luck!

Sorry it just turned out that it was my jobs firewall that didn't allow the install to talk to the Lg servers. I got home and it worked so I now am running HFS 1.8 with the new baseband. Thanks for everyone's help on this.

how is your BT and call quality? those are issues on all but the stock 2.3.4 that comes with the new baseband (and the tweaked roms based off it)

The only thing I've tried through BT is tethering, as I dont use a BT headset, which works great. Call quality is clearer but not a huge difference. Data drops less often now though.

Try and get as many people to star that so perhaps the developers won't keep telling us it's "Hit or miss" and not a big issue.
I've had no luck with Bluetooth on new baseband but it works great on the stock 2.3.4 ROM from LG. Loaded with tons of bloatware to slow your phone down again.

i starred it and hope it gets fixed one way or the other and i agree, the new stock 2.3.4 works great and getting rid of bloat shouldn't be a problem however, just yesterday and today while running 2.3.4 my phone would just start getting really hot doing nothing but sitting in the holster, screen off, 4g off, BT off, wifi off, dont understand, but i put cm7 june 10 build on and now it doesnt do that

Yeah, I can run custom ROMs and all is well other than Bluetooth for call audio. My problem is I drive all day and have to use Bluetooth, so I'm stuck on stock
Hopefully it will get fixed.

CleanROM 5.6

I wanted to post a BIG thank you to the devs at CleanROM 5.6 but since I'm a newb it wouldn't let me post in the CleanROM development section. Just wanted to say THANK YOU! What a HUGE improvement to stock. I installed Tuesday late afternoon and yesterday was my first full day on it. 15 hours of normal use (lots of texting, a few 10-15 minute phone calls, facebook etc) and I was still on 50% battery!
This is a GREAT Rom and I will continue to use this one as my DD-
Thank you!!!

Running CleanROM 5.6 with LeanKernel 1.6 seems to be a great combination.

I agree with you. It was my daily driver for a few weeks and I absolutely enjoyed it. It was a professionally handled rom.

Best ROM out there by far.
I couldn't agree more.

Love this ROM. When Scott originally said he was going to give up his phone to his wife and stop development I started trying others but I always come back to the best. This ROM rocks with the ktoonz kernel on smartassv2 and row.

I absolutely love this Rom as well. Unfortunately for me I will be reverting back to rooted stock. That's the only way my GPS with Maps will work. I tried EVERY suggestion recommended. I tried GPSFix. I tried GPS Status. I even followed instructions on flashing A GPS PATCH and it installed correctly. Tried again same thing. Locks but when I start moving it jumps around. I try to navigate somewhere it shows me in another state. All messed up. When I go back to stock with root I have no problems. Oh well.
Edit; Went back to stock everything on my phone and still having GPS issues. I guess I'm gonna have to go get myself a replacement phone

I too have had the best experience with CR. Jumped on board around 2 or so. I've tried others but keep coming back to CR. Best battery, stability, and support. Thanks Scot!

I've been running CR lite for a long time and that's only ROM that is not flickering on email. I am loving this a lot.

5.6 is the newest.
When new update is released. Down load ROM and simply dirty flash over 5.6
For lean kernel. One must download and place in SD card.
Boot into recovery.
Flash or install ( whatever you call it) the kernel.
Wipe cache
Wipe dalvik cache
Fix permission.
