Beta testers wanted/feature request thread - LG Optimus 3D

Hi,
I'm going to release a new rom based on stock rom very soon. However before I release I want to send it to a small group of beta testers to ensure it doesn't have problems.
I would prefer if you know how to use logcat and know how to send me a logcat file, as well as knowing how to make nandroid backups (and restoring them where necessary ). It would also help if you can follow instructions
If you're interested, please do PM me. Include your phone model (P920 or P925) so I can keep track of phone-specific problems.
As for the feature request bit, comment on what features you would like. I will try not to deviate from the stock rom (v21D in this case) by too much, so I won't do any theming. Don't ask me to solve GC issues, I can't do that. Neither can I make ICS for us. I'm not a kernel hacker either. However, any reasonable feature request should be posted here and I'll see what I can do. Don't bet on every suggestion being included though

Good!!! i am anticipating to see your work!!! btw, i really need a function to tweak the cpu voltage to save battery as i find the battery really drain very fast!!! This is my suggestion, thankyou

I can't do that, it's kernel related and I have no experience with it. Maybe when I have time I'll try to learn.

Hi,
2 things desperately needed --
Internet Pass Through (like HTC devices so that the PC internet can be used on the O3D)
USB on the go
would love to see that in your ROM --

Help needed: Developing advanced 2.2 ROM and kernal for Flytouch 2 SuperPad...

Alright devs, much help needed to develop a fast/clean ROM for Flytouch2 / SuperPAD... All we've had is the #3925 upgrade and little to no support. Rgocal (androidtablets.net) has been developing a new launcher for the tablet and is near the testing phase. He also has Recovery built, but is in need of how to package it into a file for installation via Clockwork ROM manager on our tablets. It should make deving much easier and custom ROM's a breeze.
Many thanks in advance for any help that can be provided. Please PM me or check www.androidtablets.net/forum/gome-flytouch-ii-firmware/19602-source-code-superpad-devs.html for more info.

I guess I'm stuck with this one on my own.

Do you need instructions on how to make a .zip that is flashable from within ClockworkMod , or did I really read your post miss? If it's like this I can help you.

That would certainly get me started. I know how to make a .zip file, but where to install it (in clockwork) would be something different. I need to make sure all the files are there that I need to work. We do not have a working recovery for this tablet. the process is coming along, but slowly. I am learning this as fast as I can, but we need help.
There is more to it than that, but I guess I wasn't spacific enough. I am relativly new to this, but I do know my way around. I can provide a list of things we need assistance with if this will help.
I didn't think I was being too obtuse in saying that we needed help. When no one responded, I figured that we'd be on our own (as usual). If my comments have come off as crass, then I apologize. Its not been easy to learn this coding, etc (understandably). This tablet, the redheaded stepchild it is, is hopefully going to be something to be reckoned with once developed.
Our next BIG project will be to work with a ROM like cm7 to utilize the gingerbread platform. I personally, would like to see a Honeycomb port, but that is in the distant future.

I'd like to make you guys a ROM

Hello, I am new to XDA-Developers and so this isn't in the Development forum and I'm sorry for that. What I need to ask is about making a ROM. I want to make a ROM out of the AOSP Jelly Bean ROM, and port it to the Triumph:laugh:, but I don't know about compatibility issues. My question is: Do any of you guys know if the Triumph is compatible with dsixda's ROM Kitchen? It isn't on the supported devices list, but dsixda himself said that more devices might work with it, so if any of you have tried using the Kitchen I'd like your help. Thanks.
Good to see that you're motivated, but there's already a major roadblock to widespread ICS adoption on the Triumph because the camera won't work and the files needed to get it working aren't publicly available. You'll probably run into the same issues, making this project kinda dead in the water.
Good luck but the kitchen can only do so much. If you do use it, you will have to make manual edits to get things to work. But I don't think you can just port JB to our phones, especially with the kitchen. You will need to build from source, I am pretty sure. But don't let me stop you, just trying to give you a heads up. Try some things out and then ask some questions in the forums and somebody should be able to help you get on the right path.

I am going to try an experimental build on my friend's Triumph (I don't have one) and I'll post in this thread the results, and then I'll go from there.
I don't think that dsixda's kitchen works with the Motorola Triumph. I currently use it for the Galaxy S2 SGH-t989! But in the near future updates he may have add support for that device! And if you wanted to do Jelly Bean then you would have to get the android source code and build it from source! Building from source is much harder than building from port.
I really hope this helped and I wish you the best of luck with your development!

How hard is creating a kernel for this device?

So I am fed up with T-Mobile and Samsung not releasing a ics update for this phone. I wan't to try the new features like facelock and android beam ( really helpful). Well can we start from scratch also is there a guide to do that? It would be really awesome if someone posted a link for it.
Well I'm not sure what you are asking but are you saying if we can do a ICS kernel without source? Yes it's possible if we use the s2 source but with heavy modifications to run on our phone. Doubt there is a guide for it anywhere, though if you have an understanding of Linux kernels and a few languages like C, C++ and Java you can help us get there.
Another way we can get cm9 or any ics varient we can modify our current 2.6.35.11+ kernel to make it run cm9.
I suggest or rather think the easiest way is the waiting way because by the time you or I or anyone gets anything close to a working build the source will drop. This would be a good idea if the blaze wasn't getting ICS at all but it is.
So for now lets enjoy GB a little more I got a rom update uploading and dwitherell is also updating his awesome rom
----------------------------------------------
If helped don't be afraid to hit the thanks button it doesn't bite lol
Okay still love the darknight rom although holo launcher gets somewhat laggy sometimes.. but is there a guide for modifying the kernel to create cm9? any help would be appreciated.

Well i just release build8 and no more holo launcher
As for a guide, there isn't one. There's guides on how to make your own kernel from the source drop and the initramfs from a stock rom but to modify the 2.6.35.11(gb) kernel to work with cm9/ics takes a lot of work and a lot of backporting and unfortunately every kernel is different as every phone is which is why no guide is ever accurate. Honestly, the best way to contribute is learn a few languages and start learning slowly. Unless, of course, you have knowledge on linux kernels then that'd be awesome
Either way i started a channel on irc #teamfah-q. That is where team fah-q(merwin, flyers00, thomas.raines, and myself) hangs out and shares ideas with each other and talk about changes and we do drop leaks to our builds and mods and the such. Join us on the channel.

I tried exactly this once... and let me tell you, it's REALLY difficult. I started with a T989 kernel and after months of work, still had a non-booting kernel.
I'm starting again, but moving much slower since I have an S3 now. I'm also trying to get a "console" on the device so I can see if the thing is actually booting at all.
Joy.
Good luck if you want to start in on this, I wish you the best

[Q] SGS4G

Okay, Let me start by saying two things. Yes I'm new to this. And yes I looked in the forums for something similar.
Now, basically I just recently rooted my Samsung Galaxy S 4G. It is Model SGH-T959V, Firmware 2.2.1, Baseband T959VUVKB5, Build FROYO.VUVKB5. There are a few things I was wanting to ask the community.
Is it possible or a good idea to update it to JB, ICS, GB. And if so what are the benefits and procedures to do so?
Secondly, I've been looking into getting some custom roms. So far the only things I have found haven't been comprehensible. They either require a higher firmware version, have no explanation as to what the rom does, or have highly technical steps which are way beyond me. Does anyone have any recommendations as to what would be some good roms? What they do? And the benefits of using them?
If this has all been discussed somewhere else and have just missed it, please feel free to link to the thread and close this one.
ok i see you are new to the concept of flashing and rooting ....etc) you should try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1001759

First, you should start here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1470716 Second here http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S/SGH-T959V now you have all the source of instructions and guides to follow all you have to do is take some time to read and search. and now good luck to you and your phone..
Well, as for the Odin thing a lot of people have said it can brick your device, and that's not something wanna do.
As for the other guides, I started it, I got to the point where I'm updated to GB 2.3.6. The rest of the stuff didnt say what it was for, so I was unsure as whether or not to proceed. Are they required for flashing ROMs? Or just extra stuff?
The last one didn't seem to have anything really useful, but I didnt look at every last thing.
And what about useful ROMs? I've looked around online and a lot people recommend Cyanogenmod, although no one has said what it does. I looked at the steps and it seemed over complicated to install for someone new to this stuff.

In this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S/SGH-T959V it will guide you to rest of Custom rom's and kernel's that you must need to use in order to
start flashing custom rom and kernels. the rest is a guide which you can use and it will save you'r time from looking around.. The only rom which is very much stable to our phone are
GB and ICS while Cyanogenmod 10/10.1 are still in Alpha and beta stage..
Yeah, I saw that as I looked through it more. Just a lot of it is way over my head so it's gonna take me a while to get to it
That's right, you will never get lost by following that guide because everything you need to know are already in there.. just take some time to read and you
will be enlightened as you go on the process..
Well, my biggest problem is I keep looking for useful and cool ROMs, but haven't found any so far. So at the moment I can justify to myself to go through all those things just to not have anything to put on it. So far I like the GB look and feel much better than FROYO. I've found a few minor apps here and there, but so far nothing that has required flashing.
Or you can check some of the great ICS rom's we have, here i am going to provide some links of it for you.

This are just few of the rom's we have that i personally try and use it by myself, but you can have as much as you like and you can take a look at the development section and hand pick some
of the great rom's courtesy of our great dev's..
Cool, I'll check out those GB ones. Thanx
Good luck and make sure to follow as per OP's instruction of flashing the respective rom's to avoid further problem, u won't get lost as every instructions are provided
for the ease of use and flashing.. and take some time to each and every rom you flash so that you can personally experience the goodness and you can make a choice which rom you think it's best for you..

Any rom Testers?

On request of some C2+ users on xda and on FB, I have decided to port my roms for C2+. I was told some time back I postponed it due to other roms in hand.
Looking for a couple people to test out my roms, first Rom will be a stock which is little bit modified or tweaked type rom, nothing special.
Its not ready but I have started working on it. Postponed the work for few days due to other roms All next roms will be based on this stock. But maybe some people will like this tweaked stock also!
You must have Recovery working without any issue and some basic flashing experience and some good hand on 7zip!!!
Edit1: No need to reply here, just send PM for discussion first!
Important: Please note, till date I have not allowed anyone to port my roms for C2+. If someone stole any, I dont know. Inform me in PM if anyone did it here.
Thanks
C Mahendra
Ready for any Testing
Ready for any testing mate. I above a noob can get you a logcat or provide benchmark etc. so count me in
