CM_Arcee's ICS Beta ROM Discussion Thread - T-Mobile LG G2x

I feel like it deserves its own thread in the General section as the other one mainly pertains to ICS development.
Anyways, my voice to text was working flawlessly at first but not anymore. Anyone else having the same problem?
And if you're still unsure about running it, here's a short vid on it and how it runs.

I haven't. What does it do when you try to send another one?

i get a weird problem that went im in the messenger app, if im typing in landscape and then go back to portrait the screen has a weird black overlay and I cant really see anything... it wont go away unless i restart the app... other than that stuff is running fine
Edit: I think this is a known problem because its an "android 4" app... he mentioned they would be glitchy

Its kind of strange, people can receive my messages but I won't get theirs when they reply. I've tried wiping cache and reflashing but it was still a problem.

Yeah hardware acceleration isn't really fully working yet since its just a hack at the moment. That's why apps that utilize it are still weird at the moment. But hopefully he is able to fix that in the near future.

Boot loop
I posted on General ICS thread before I saw this one, but I used G2x Scrubber and I have tried normal Factory Reset, and Than I flash CM9 and Gapps( for 4.0), but it gets stuck at the Lg screen and goes into bootloop... I can still get to recovery but I cant get CM9 to work any suggestions?

The only real issue I have is when I tap the screen, sometimes it'll act as if I'm holding down on where I tapped. Camera works for me now, but attempting to take picture make it not respond, asking me to force close. Still, it's good been good enough to use all day for me.

does gps work correctly??

Camera doesn't work, any suggestions? It will start up and take a picture but then freezes.

get the camera 360 app from the market. it works perfect for me.

GPS works. Not sure if it's more or less stable than Gingerbread though.

Blink

After installing 2.1, blink no longer seems to function.
Does anybody know why or have any solutions?
Thanks
Yeah i noticed this myself but I thought cause I hadn't went through to do the setup again for it, I'll see how it goes since I change some colors up.
I have found blink is working, but only when the phone is locked
For me it is not working only for incoming SMS

BLN Just Wont work (flashed 3-4 roms)

I have Infin1ty rom on right now, before that was stock, then oxygen, then zulu and opensoju.
All these roms had one thing in common----BLN wouldnt work for me.
I tried reflashing, wiping, doing EVERYTHING that i can think of! and BLN just wont work. I have NO clue why, i reflashed roms, bought the pro app and still didnt work.
The test notification works fine. Im running the stock messaging app and GO SMS, and for some reason nothing works.... im getting annoyed it works for everyone else accept a dozen or so of us xda members.
BLN works fine for me using Opensoju. Make sure to download BLN from market.

I have always had Netarchy kernal! in every rom i put that kernal on! its the newest one as well. I might be switching to trinity however.....but im so confused why this doesnt work for me!!
i have all the correct kernal and everything, im so confused
I use a Trinity kernel with NSCollab, and it's ok.
Sorry, i can't help you :-(
So i just flashed the trinity kernal (one in the first post) and it still doesnt work with BLN.
all that happens is phone vibrates, i see my widgetlocker theme, then phone shuts off and the bottom keys arent lighting up. Whats going on?
I followed what this guy did here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1088690
and it works for me.
It's not a perfect replacement for LED indicator. It only works on new messages, i.e. it won't stay until you clear your notifications.

[Q] Phone Lagging Terribly when using Wi-Fi

Every time when I connect to a Wi-Fi network my phone starts to lag really bad. I've tried different Rom's and it seems to be a problem on all of them.
Anyone know a fix for that?
Thanks.

What do you mean by lag? Like your phone stalls and lag when opening/closing app drawer or scrolling app drawer and home screen? Or browser lagging?
I've never had this problem. But you can retry flashing the rom but before doing so wipe data/cache/davlik and format system.

I mean that it starts lagging overall. Everything I try to open it takes forever and sometimes it's so slow I can actually see some system animations frame by frame. I've the issue with stock software(no root) and after I've rooted. I sure hope it's not a hardware issue. Wi-Fi works it's just making my phone way slow and it's downloading via Wi-Fi...
Something else I've noticed-once in awhile when I try to turn of Wi-Fi it will say there is an error and it won't turn on-have to reboot the phone and then it works...but still would slow down my phone....
so if you're not on wi-fi the phone is fine?
What rom are you running currently, and stock kernel or no?

Has to be a hardware issue. Fresh out of the box shouldn't be like that.
Hmm, that is the third replacement and all of them had the issue out of the box....I guess I am just "lucky" then...:-(
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
The only thing you can try is a custom kernel on a different rom, as the 2.3.4 rom has no kernels besides the stock one. I doubt it though since it is like that from out of the box.
Thanks guys. I might try and ask for another replacement phone from T-Mobile then....sounds like hardware problem....

Are you out of the grace period?
Do you have insurance on your phone? If you have insurance you should have no problem getting it replace.

Thoughts on the ICS leak?

So for those of you that have ICS up and going on your skyrockets... What do you think so far?
I personally am seeing more responsiveness of my device. On GB it was a little sluggish and then I kinda got used to it, and now that I have ICS it's so much better. Apex Launcher is WOW on it.
My battery has lasted much, much longer too, and I've been doing tons of stuff on it this morning.
Can't wait for a rom based on stock ICS.
i like it but my home button wont work even after reodining and factory resetting any ideas
I love it,, what are some great ICS optimize launchers..? Like nova?

A couple notes
1. I can't figure out how to take a screenshot now.
2. What's the home button problem? Like...in an app and hit home and nothing happens? Or can't use the home button to enter into d/l mode to flash CWM?
I have the latter; I can't enter into d/l mode to flash CWM now.
Edit: Wait...I might have it now. D/l mode, that is.
Edit: N/m. That was stock recovery. Any ideas how to get into d/l mode so I can flash CWM?

The other thread pointed out that taking a screenshot on ICS is done by holding one of the volume buttons along with the power button. So it's change from the home button in GB to the volume button in ICS.

I have to use XpressConnect to connect to my work WiFi and when I d/l'd it, it was from Market and didn't stick. Then updated to Play, d/l'd again and everything is kosher.
Just having issues getting into D/l mode again to flash CWM.
Were any of you experiencing bluetooth connection problems? I am suffering from the well reported issue of intermittent bluetooth connections and drops.
Im curious/helpful that ICS may fix this issue...

Yeah, I read that on another forum as well but all it does is make my volume go up or down, depending on which volume button I hit. lol
Does it work for you?
Edit: NVM. Got it. Volume down + Power. A little finicky at first, it seems.
Power off and Restart from Device options menu are not working for me, they just hang and I have to pull battery. Otherwise everything else seems to be working.
Powering down phone freezes. And the market is constantly force closing. I have tried fixing permissions. Reflashing. Not in that order of course. Nothing is working for me.

Hi, not is just me but screenshot not working, power+home.
When doing the picture, the keyboard does not show smile icon etc, just dark keyboard. That's all I found so far

I just meant that I've been out of the flashing scene for about a year until recently and this phone has a different method, plus the fact that it took me 2 days to get everything backed up, set back up how I like, etc. I've lost my nerve I guess. I used to be a serial flasher of roms back in the Eris days. New rom that nobody's tried yet? Sure thing. These days I'm even hesitant to flash something if it's tried and true and nobody is seeing any problems. Plus the fact that my hardware is messed up. (I dropped it in water twice by accident and the screen also broke in a separate incident)

Damn, still working after water twice, nice! Just do a backup before, so if you don't like it, you can restore everything you had. And, if your S-ON, remember to flash boot.img separately.

Sounds like a Chrome issue maybe. I haven't touched any GPS items yet, so its either Chrome, or something T-Mobile jacked up.

Are you pressing it quickly or holding it for a few seconds. Mine works perfectly, but you should be pressing Power+Volume Down, which is stock for this ROM.
