Ive read different places that the official, or close to official GB rom has been leaked. I searched and didnt find it on here.
Is there actually a leaked version? And I am talking about a USA version that has hdmi support and is stable?
If there is and I am just missing it on here, could someone point me in the right direction?
Thanks!
is this is true ... WOOooOOT

this is a leak, that can have HDMI working if you flash back the to the leaked Kernel with SGS kernel flasher or odin it back on there.
i have never used this, but i read about and just decided it was not worth it.....but i THINK this is close to what your looking for.

Thanks for the quick response...Im with you, id rather just wait.
I am running the froyo infused rom right now with the gingerbread launcher. I love it.
Overall, what benefits will GB bring over Froyo? I mean froyo has copy / paste, and brought us flash support, and I am running the GB launcher, so what will be the benefits?
Its a little snappier, you can use video chat on Skype, gchat. Sound latency is supposed to be improved, though I haven't noticed. Not sure what. Infused on froyo is great. I was really happy on it.
I've been running the newest gingerbread leak for a week and everything is great, including battery. I still have to delete some at&t bloatware though.

Thanks for the update! lol
Im not really in a rush for the GB update, as I just purchased my infuse and ready to flash some roms. Ill be busy for the next month.
For the others that are anxiously waiting, just try to keep busy with the phone and let time pass. Checking everyday is not going to help. lol. Im sure once its out, sooner or later, were going to hear more flash addicts about when new/updated roms coming out. smh

The 15fps is easily fixed, but the hdmi requires a new kernel not to mention the adapter that didn't come with the phone.

needs a new ROM too, hdmi needs support in the launcher and probably the framework as well. The video app is also special so it can output hi Res video and turn pdf the phone screen no simply mirror a low Res output to the TV.
Simple question. If it ever becomes available (no official updated in well over a month) will you use this as an everyday ROM on your G2X?
I for one may try it out, but as most users have reported on the CM website, CM7 is so broken I may just wait for the stock version.
What do you mean by cm7 is broken? And I very likely would use it?

Here's the way I figures it: my stock ROM was bugged, it took soft bricking it and reloading a stock rom, which went buggy and finally flashing CM7 to get a rom which worked correctly. The only broken thing I notice if DSP manager FC'ing and Volume+ FC'ing, if I compare that to the ton of advantages and the fact it's actually stable OS-wise, I'd rather deal with two apps FC'ing at times then not even being able to text or the responsiveness being so poor that I want to throw the phone at someone.
So, yea, +1 for running CM9 if/when it comes out.
Yeah... I don't think cm7 is broken at all.
Gapps not loading for you is your fault, either you did or didn't flash the right zip, or it's just ignorance on your part.
Of course people will use cm9 if it works for our phone, that's a redundant question. ICS would run so smooth for us if everything works.
Just switched to cm7 because of random reboots and programs closing out while using them on stock.
cm7 is ok so far when i restored everything i got alot of force close but thats all due to mixmatch date since i was on 2.3.3 lg and no on 2.3.7 cm7.
but i got everything to work just find for me. Took the rom apart and repacked it with some stuff.
So what im saying is you probably did something wrong. And i would run cm9 if it came out that would be ICS but also ill be moving to a galaxy s2 by the time it comes out.
CM7 is Gold
Transitioning from the stock G2X ROM, to CM7. CM7 is like Goldmaster for this phone, as good as it gets. Awesome battery life. Usability, No random crashes. It just sounds like you picked a bad version to begin with. Now what built, and nightly were you using. Did you try the stable 7.0.0.1.
Always clear cache & Darvik and then proceed.

Can't say I've tried to send a true mms, just huge texts messages which get sent as an mms. Try an app called Handcent; the stock messaging app is to fail!
Before getting throttled for downloading on a 2g network (so much for that 5gigs of "high-speed" data, liars), youtube worked fine.
GPS issue has nothing (well, almost) nothing to do with CM, there's three threads that I know about regarding gps fixes. The only "gps" problem I notice now is that google maps sucks at getting a lock and I have to use Gps Status to get the satelites homed in on me before Maps will get my location.
I am positive the devs will get us a good working version of ics so when cm9 comes out and is as stable and fast as my current setup i will daily drive it for sure
Making bad decision's one at a time.
Once a working ICS-based build becomes available, I will certainly give it a look.
CM7 is working fine for me, i had to flash the gapps, and its working fine. And yes i would run CM9 when it comes out...
For sure I'll use, cm7 rocks! Hope cm9 goes the same way!!
I have been running the HFS rom since v1, and for the most part it's been very nice. However, I was saddened to learn today that the dev will not be working on the g2x anymore. I know there are a few other ICS roms available, but I do not know a whole lot about them as I've mostly been in the HFS forum. If this dev does in fact leave, which ROM would you recommend for replacement (ICS only plz) and why? (highlights and lowlights to be aware of??)
Thanks!! (hopefully this information will help out a lot of people)
I could be wrong but didn't the HellFire ROMs come from the Phoenix Blood ROMs? If they did then they took queues from EaglesBlood. That would be the one I would recommend. I am currently on a Gingerbread MIUI ROM but anytime I want to used a CM based ROM I always go with EaglesBlood because it has always seemed really stable and gets good battery life. The dev also is quick to respond and does his best to fix any problems. Just as an FYI there are 2 versions of EaglesBlood ICS:
This one is based off of the AOSP source code Here
This one is based off of the CyanogenMod CM9 source Here
Hope this helps!
I doubt hell is going to end his rom. All the cm9 based ROMs are about the same. AOKP is pretty nice. I like the clean and bare bones AOSP thing that eagle's blood has going on. Really these are just toys for now tho.

i've used pretty much all the ICS roms on here and by far the best have been Genesis and HFS
I'm not sure if I like Domination or HFS better because I haven't used HFS since 1.7 and I've been on Domination for quite sometime now. I'll be on HFS once the next update comes out. HFS has always been a favorite of mine, but Owain's ROM tempted me over and I've been on it since.
Genesis is really cool, but I prefer the CM9 power widget over the AOKP one.
I actually haven't tried EB since build 1. Maybe if I get bored, I'll switch to it again sometime, but I'm pretty happy with Domination and HFS.
In my opinion you just have to use some roms and find which fits your feel the best. I've went through maybe 3-4 ICS roms before finally sticking with ASOP 4.0.4 EaglesBlood for the (in my opinion) battery life and performance.
My phone loves Domination by Owain94, all others seem to not agree with mine so just try all of them and see what she likes

I'm on AOKP ICS but I'm considering going back to a GB ROM because of the better battery, a reliable HD camera, no sleep of death, etc. Anyone else on the same boat? I can't make a decision! :\

I went back and haven't looked back! ICS was too much of a hassle with all those problems you listed. If you haven't seen it yet, LG released a GB 2.3.4 update as of a few days ago I believe. I just updated to that today and it has been nothing but fast and reliable so far (knock on wood haha).

If you do decide to upgrade as of now (from reading the dev thread about this new update) it looks like if you flash a custom rom after installing the new march baseband you won't be able to make phone calls. Only works with the stock LG 2.3.4. Just a warning if you were thinking of flashing a rom with the new baseband. I'm sure they will come up with a solution soon though, they always do!
I've upgraded once to ICS, and I went back immediately. Although there were times when I flashed different ICS roms from different devs, but they all seem to have the same issues, so I just stayed on GB, I'm happy with Hellfire Phoenix, really stable with Faux CM kernel at stock voltage.
I did as well, the UI wasn't worth all the technical difficulties. Went from HFS to HFP.

Can't the baseband be restored to an older one withe the GetRIL app on the Play Store?
Btw, does the release of 2.3.4 signify that we won't be getting ICS officially? I might as well abandon ICS now if we're never going to get updated drivers from Nvidia...
Sent from my AOKP G2x
no and no to put it simple.
The GetRIL app does just that get's RIL's no a baseband.
We never knew or will we know cause LG can't make up their mind it seems. Some forums have public LG moderators/employees that state that they haven't heard a thing about LG giving the G2X ICS love. On the other hand I have read places and posted here that LG's Facebook stated that they will update our phone and the European version to ICS sometime in the 2nd quarter. So it's pretty much don't hold your breath and be patient.
The fact that LG hasn't given up on updating the G2x means a lot...even though it's been EOLed, though. But, speculation is speculation.
i went back to GB, due to the camera issue. the ISC roms are great but unless LG\Nvidia releases their drivers these roms will never be perfect. another reason i went back to GB is because i like MIUI (the whole interface and the ability to record calls). cant wait for MIUI v4.

Coming off of about a month using ics roms, its nice to get back to gb because EVERYTHING WORKS! Also, pretty sure the o2x will get ics towards the middle of this year. We just have to wait for the drivers to be ported. Until then, some of us can make due without hwa, but its hard to stay away from gb for too long.
Back on MIUI for now. I themed it to look like ICS so I'm satisfied for now. Much better battery life too! But I miss the ICS multitasking still.
I really like the UI on ICS and it works well enough for me that I've just stayed on it. Went to GB for a day and decided against it. The known issues with ICS have not really been an issue for me at all.
I used and was very happy running CM7, even installed it on my girl's phone which will likely stay that way.
A few weeks ago I went to Eagleblood's most recent AOSP build and don't see myself going back to any form of GB. Yes the ICS ROMs do have their issues but so far nothing game breaking for me.
pretty new here and I never even tried an ICS ROM yet. But even as an Android semi-noob it makes sense that an ICS ROM will not be as polished as a well done GB ROM. Hoping to try one soon but the general sentiment of this thread makes me think it will be a while before I do.

They're very usable and stable enough for daily use. If the known issues don't bother you, then you'll enjoy ICS. The first ROM I flashed to my phone was an ICS ROM and I've remained on ICS since. I tried going back to GB, but ended up flashing ICS again the next day. Give it a try. If you don't like it, you can always re flash a GB ROM.

ok im not sure about the update frm anything other then 2.2.2 from vm but i do know as im running it right now the fusion rom that downloads the evolution 1.1 file that ends up being evolution 2 is 2.3.4 and all features are working including camera and hdmi and its running as smooth as the sharp rom the only thing i did different then normal was flashed the fusion rom over froyo cream and everything as i said is working great
lol i see u created this rom or just uploaded not sure but maybe this kernal could work with the cm7 for hdmi and camera more on hdmi kinda of an everyday use when u have young kids

If the evolution rom has working HDMI then its 99.9% chance its Froyo based, the 2.3 can come from build.prop. changes
Also the cm7 tickerguy is nice but its the oldest and most outdated of all cm7's for the triumph
1.tickerguys cm7
2. Whyzor took over after Tg and has whyzors Tg-reloaded
3. G60 took over after whyzor and made g60madman cm7
4. G60 took it a step further and got a team together and made MTDEV-CM7
All the roms except mtdev-cm7 are based off cm7 the older version, while the mtdev-cm7 is based on cm7.2 final
Which includes many updates both from the cm7 team and the mtdev team have been added
The only difference I've seen outta all of them is whyzor's tg reloaded has alot of tweaks set to maximize battery life, but its still an older cm7, currently the mt-dev team has been working on kernels and tweaks since they have pretty much everything except HDMI running flawlessly, also some users have reported small wifi bug which there looking into as well
The real deal is BSydz PA CM9 ROM for the triumph that is on the android forums board.
