Ics 4.04 hopefully to us too - T-Mobile LG G2x

http://www.xda-developers.com/android/galaxy-nexus-gets-ics-4-0-4-update/

We'll most likely get it once the sources are updated to 4.0.4. It looks like a lot of things have changed in this build too. Maybe performance will increase on our phones?

Source has been pushed.

ok guys its here Whitehawkx AOKP 29 is android 4.0.4 maybe its just me but it seems a lot smoother

I just like the fact that multitouch was updated in it for the keyboard issues I was having... Typing drunk on CM9 was messing with everything I needed lol.

Anyone know when the OTA will be out
Been trying different ROMs but then my phone started random rebooting even when I put it back to completely stock and re-locked it. So, I sent it in for replacement. Now my replacement phone at the top of the screen used to say "T-mobile" but now just reads "LG" on the glass. I guess the later phones were no longer branded T-mobile.
One thing I noticed though is when I put in a ROM that worked flawlessly on my old phone it would cause the replacement to have random reboots, force close, and just plain lock up where I would be required to remove/replace the battery to get it to work again. Any ideas or suggestions??? I have only been able to run the stock GB rom successfully.
Any ideas on what the phones issue may be?? Or maybe when the OTA for a stock ICS will be available?
Thanks,

1. why are you posting in this thread?
2. some roms/kernels are undervolted, if your phone cant handle it youll get random reboots.
3. nobody knows when ICS will get here, NOBODY. if anyone says they know when it will get here, they are lying. there are no exceptions, EVER!

Loving all the improvements that come with this update. I just installed AOKP build 31 and have had zero issues thus far. Just one thing missing...can't hangout in G+ and we know whose fault that is. Nvidia

g2x problems

Everybody seems to have some problems with the phone. I was wondering what all the common problems with the phone are and also whether rooting fixes the problems or not.
Yes! And no!
Well, my first G2x had problems... It kept shutting off by itself, so I got it replaced. The past 2 replacements have been really good, no problems whatsoever. I shipped my 2nd one back because it came with part of the body scratched. The gingerbread update didn't really do anything for me, other then the updated baseband.
Reboots, shutdowns, over heating are all based on the device itself. Some have it, some don't.
Also, screen bleeding isn't THAT bad.
And CM7 is amazing, so why not root?
So far, the only problem I've had was that the LG updating tool soft bricked my phone. But, at least that updated the baseband. I've not seen any random reboots at all in the month that I've had the phone. Aside from the FFC camera issues that are hopefully still being worked on, this thing has been pretty good.
I bought a mint, second hand G2X and the only problem I had was with the flakey LG updater. Once I got it updated (within 48 hours of receiving it) it has been nothing but stellar. Maybe I am lucky but remember, happy people don't post much to forums such as this. But people with problems can be very vocal. That doesn't downplay the problems to those who experience them, and they have my sympathies, but I would say the majority of G2Xs out there are performing as they should. This is my fifth Android phone (last one a Nexus One which my wife now has). I am using it unlocked ($3.00 unlock code off eBay) in Thailand with 3G service on 2100 and and I couldn't be happier unless the phone had been free. By the way, I am using it stock GB 2.3.3. For now, I see no reason to root it until an exploit has been discovered so I can root it without flashing clockwork mod. The NVFlasher process kind of concerns me, and I am no noob when it comes to flashing devices.
I'm still getting reboots and freezes even after the update. I'm on my 3rd replacement. Also, still takes forever for the gps to lock. Love the phone... when it works.

Have you tried running the phone clean without apps? Then add apps back one at a time, run for a while, and then add another one? Lockups and freezes are usually errant apps, and not the hardware's fault. My GPS locked from a cold start in 5 seconds.

G2x Reboot issues

Ive tried numerous ROMs and kernals and stuff with my phone, yet none of them seem to solve the reboot issue on my g2x except the stock 2.3.3 update a while back... Is there some secret im missing? why would the 2.3.3 update fix it while nothing else works well?
If all else fails i might have to just replace the phone... im tired of stock!

I think that might just affect only certain phones. I've noticed that it affects some and never happens to others. i jsut got my G2x and have yet experienced on reboot. And I've tried Weapon, Cm7 and EG.

i hope this isnt the case. not sure how t mobile is on replacing a phone if i claim its faulty- and i would need to unroot and change back to stock recovery and stuff =\ which i guess isnt THAT hard..
Yes but if you have insurance on your sim, card then just say you having difficulty with they should give you another one if not then use the one root method to unroot back.

Yeah, I have nothing but problems with these ROMs on my G2X. Going back to stock GB today. I was late to work a couple of times because my phone rebooted itself when my alarm was supposed to go off with Weapon, and now Eagles blood I woke up to my phone being completely off, where I couldn't even turn it on without removing the battery first (cuz that makes sense). I couldn't use A2DP on CM 7 either. As far as I'm concerned all custom ROMs are STUPID.

So the only option is to get a replacement from Tmobile? Tried rooting my wifes phone and got the same thing. Using CM7 or MIUI, random reboots, dropped calls, and SOD galore. If this is the only fix I guess I'll be calling Tmobile again...
Ive never had the reboot issue to the extreme like some have. It has happened for me a few times with stock gb, did 2 wipes in a row and then it stopped. Not a guaranteed fix, but it worked for me.
once rooted, I removed almost all the bloat that I didnt use (from xboarders stock rooted rom) and never had an issue.
I did notice a while back with the nightlys that when I put my put my screen to sleep while in the sms app, id have to pull the battery. Issue resolved for me with the currenty nightlys.

Are you getting these issues right away or after you install apps? It is usually an errant app causing reboots and SOD and not the rom. Add apps one by one and wait a bit before adding the next one. If you add one and you start getting problems you can be pretty sure that is a problem app and uninstall it. There are many bad apps on the Market that can cause loads of problems. Google doesn't do any testing on them so it is definitely buyer beware, even if the app is free.

g2x random reboot fix
I think I have finally found a fix to the SOD and random reboots on the g2x. Obviously the SOD is solved by going to setting>development>stay awake.

What can I do if I'm tired of my G2X 6 months in?

I've had the G2X since release. It was my first smartphone, and so maybe I wasn't entirely sure what to expect. (I probably still don't have a real idea.) I've had the freezing/rebooting problems since about 2 weeks in. There are times it just won't "wake up" or just automatically reboots itself. I'm way outside buyer's remorse, obviously, so what kind of options to I have? Can I still get the phone replaced by T-Mo, to hopefully get one that has less reboot issues?
In case you were wondering, I have modded the phone to see if other ROMs would fix the issue, but they have not. It seems like the freezing issue will be gone for a short time after wiping and flashing a new ROM, but then a couple of weeks later it's back to how it was. Any advice? Maybe try to trade it out on CL or something?

You have one year of manufacture warranty from the time you buy it. I suggest you call T-Mobile and ask for a replacement.

You didn't mention if you did the GB upgrade and the new baseband. If you are really tired of it just send it to me in Thailand free. I can use another phone for testing rom builds.
Hah, I did do the official GB upgrade before I started putting ROMs on it. I was basically hoping that would fix my issues, but it didn't, so then I started in on ROMs. Currently running the latest Weapon, which I like, but the reboots/freezes are wearing on me. I'll try to call T-Mo.

The phone is defective. Get it swapped out under your warranty. Mine has only rebooted and sod once the entire time I have owned it. Occasional reboots and sod are normal for Android (usually a bogus app running havoc on the system). If you have frequent problems you have something wrong with your device. If you have tried running stock without installing programs and still have problem you definitely need to do a warranty replacement pronto. When you get your new one run it a few days without adding any apps to make sure it is okay. Then add apps slowly so if one starts causing problems you can pinpoint down easier and zap it off your phone. When the G2X is running correctly, it is one of the best Android devices on the market today.

......I've been running ICS since the early SGS/CM9 alphas, somewhere in November. I've not one time had ANY encryption issues. No one can use them? I'm not too sure where you're coming from on that one.
I can not imagine Samsung is going to invest time/money/resources into getting ICS stock onto our phones. So you'll have to "take your chances", or stick with GB
Not gonna lie, your not missing much. Aside from the new notification/action bar and a little eye candy. It feels no different then GB, which was little more then extra eye candy from 2.2.
Sure it runs a bit faster/smoother, but nothing worth the risk if your that worried.
P.S. Don't expect anything to change, what we have ICS wise is what a 2 year old phone is gonna get. Take it or leave it.

Encryption Unsuccessful
I experienced the error. I can tell you that it has nothing to do with encrypting the phone. I had CM9 and Glitch Kernel 14 on my phone and had been running it for several weeks. One day I pulled the phone out of my pocket and the screen was dim and it was stuck on the CM9 boot screen. It had been running fine before I put it in my pocket and I had it connected to a computer prior to the discovery of the problem.
Some seem to believe the problem stems from the internal card not changing states from busy to available after being disconnected from a computer. When you connect your phone to a computer the internal and external cards are inaccessible to the phone's operating system. Many people and myself believe that the internal card is stuck in a state that makes it inaccessible and therefore the operating system thinks the internal card is encrypted upon the next reboot.
Many people also believe that it is also limited to hardware build 1010, however my phone was build 1012. I had to swap out the main board in my phone with one from another phone that had a broken screen.
If what we believe is correct about connecting the phone to a computer is correct. Using an ICS ROM without connecting the phone to a computer should work, but that is only if that is the cause of the problem. I myself will be sticking to a Gingerbread ROM until there is a better understanding of the cause of this situation.

Reboot issue with JB 4.1.2 vzw newest update on Razr HD

Hey so after a few days of the new update running OK I started having random reboots! I noticed on a few other sites people complaining about the same issue of reboots multiple times of the day! Just wanted to let everyone know a possible solution to the issue! I have went through multiple FDR's and did come to the conclusion that the random reboots for my phone were associated with a new update to the chrome browser and were easily fixed by uninstalling new update and telling it not to automatically update so hope this helps anyone who may be having the same issues!!!
Well so much for that after trying everything its back to rebooting again? I love my phone but seriously considering putting it against a wall!!!

Never had that issue with the new update. Try doing a factory reset or try the new fast boot files to start fresh. Not sure why chrome would be an issue.try the chrome beta version but I suspect chrome had nothing to do with the reboot just a bad initial update.

My Wife's phone is doing the Random Reboot thing since the 4.1.2 update as well. I did a Factory Reset on it and it still does the same thing.
I suspect an application is doing it? Because I put the phone in Safe Mode and it never rebooted while in Safe Mode.
But I have No Idea of how to tell which app is doing it, other than to uninstall a random app after every reboot to find out which one it is.
But I would like to try this fast boot option? I know how to get the phone into fastboot, but which files are you redoing? What exactly are your doing ?
Have the same problem. I have done:
SBF 4.1.2
FDR
WIPE
Even tried running a parallel rom with safestrap (bakatang)
The chrome thing did not work
Keeps freezing. Seems the problem is way worse when having the phone play some music.
I am just about unlocking the thing and SBFing back to 4.1.1 but not really interested into unlocking the bootloader. That would be the last choice for me.
If someone knows of some way to fix this, please help, this used to be a great phone...
No problem here with the sfr rom... used for over 1 month now and no problem and my system is always fast...

I've been running some tests for about a week now since I got my RAZR and the results are interesting... I've had lockups and reboots multiple times a day, most often while doing something involving sound i.e. listening to music or playing a game or video. I've tried stock and custom 4.1.2 ROMs and custom 4.2.2 ROMs and it persists so I'm inclined to say its either bad audio software or faulty audio chips. This is everything I've done:
1. turning off sounds (keeping phone on vibrate/silent) pretty much eliminates the random lockups/reboots I got from receiving multiple texts or calls at once. I noticed if I bombarded the phone and made it ring a lot it gave the same results as listening to music but if its just a text or email or call here and there during regular use it the phone works fine.
2. Listening to music, either streamed or local from phone/SD storage and through headphones or speaker, would cause skips and audio cutting out. After a few minutes of this the phone will lock up completely and reboot itself. Strangely enough it happened only rarely or not at all while streaming music via bluetooth to a stereo.
3. I don't think its anything kernel related or if it is its not causing visible errors or wake locks. My battery seems to be just fine through all this.
4. I have tried multiple music/video players, put my SD card with music in another phone and the music plays fine, stock ROMs with nothing disabled/removed still has the issue, custom ROMs debloated and modified also have the issue. I think I've just about covered every base I can as an end user to track down what's causing it but I'm open to suggestions.
I have a replacement scheduled so I will see if that fixes it, I have seen this problem reported quite a few times all over the interwebz but there are also a lot of people not having the issue either so idk. If there are any Devs or anyone skilled in android-fu that can read logcats I will be more than willing to get those for you. Sorry for the essay everyone lol
tl;dr Like others I have freezes and reboots from what seems to me to be an audio software/hardware problem, either built in or from the 4.1.2 update

one solution that has worked for me is silencing the phone or putting it on vibrate and I haven't had a freeze or reboot in almost 2 days... the problem seems to me to be related to audio/sound and not listening to music or watching videos along with silencing ringtones has put a stop to it which kind of confirms my suspicions... I will try and flash back when I can but it'll need a day or 2 of field testing to confirm if its a solution

I can confirm that audio stuff just does worse to the phone. However, I have not had your luck when silencing. Keeps rebooting no matter what. Please let us know when you do.

edit: I did have a Maxx HD way back at launch for a month or so running stock 4.1.1 and it ran perfectly, so my idea is its kernel/codec/software related. Hopefully a custom ROM (or hell even stock) with Hashcodes Qcom kernel will fix the issue we're having

I talked with vzw service, the assistant said that 2% of the phones were having this issue, wich for this kind of technology is a pretty big number of phones. Suuggested to send it to Motorola but since its rooted its almost sure not to be replaced by them. What is strange is that not everyone is having this issue. I would be almost sure Motorola is going to release a fix for this, but would not count days. Getting kind of frustrated with this phone I used to like so much. Thinking of going the htc route bc this is getting unbearable.
Any news in this? Anyone tried a new ROM that could solve this? Or even a fix?
... or just everyone had another phone lying aroud...

My wife & I both have this phone and still are constantly being rebooted. This is even after the software update. I have been wiped, factory reset, and everything possible, but I've not called for a replacement yet. Normally I havea worse luck with those.
Wife used to love this phone, now she hates it and hates we changed from AT&T to Verizon since we have no backup Verizon phones. At least we could take the sim out and go to the iPhone that's floating around the house when the phone went to pot before. Makes me really hate suggesting that we go back to Moto phones since that's all that I've used on Verizon.
Wonder if big red will get the new HTC One....
Tried flashing the MR-4 sbf, but did not solve the issue.

If an sbf didn't solve it then it's a hardware problem.you guys are definitely in the minority with this reboot issue.go get a warranty replacement.this phone and moto in general are solid phones.
