New CM7 Nightly - T-Mobile LG G2x

http://get.cm/?device=p999
I don't have a bluetooth headset on hand, so I cannot test the state of bluetooth calling!
(It's from the 8th, but nobody posted about it, so i figured I would)

Nothing in the change log shows any changes to Bluetooth so I'm gonna assume it's still borked...

agreed at I don't notice a lot in there for us to update it lol... Although this is the longest I've stayed on a rom since my G1 came out and I didn't root it til after 9-12 months lol... been on 7.2 "stable" since release.

I'm on CM7 Nightly #225 and I have no problems with Bluetooth at all. The only problem I have with this ROM is sometimes it takes longer to connect to WiFi.
Other than that, CM7 #225 is flawless.

Are you on the March 2012 baseband? That is when the Bluetooth problem appears. If on an earlier baseband then your comment is irrelevant.

Just tested it on the Mar-12 BB. BT still not working for call audio.

EDIT: actually the bluetooth bug filed with CM is correct.
Let's all star it for some activity though:

Everyone with the new baseband with a rom other than v21y has the issue. The inly resolution so far is to downgrade to an earlier baseband, perferably oct 24th or july

Doh, seems I should have read a few more threads on this before doing the upgrade.
Honestly.. everything was work ok.. before I upgraded.. I do think call quality is better on the new BB.. but enough that I want BT gone.. no..
so I need a original upgrade or restore file with an earlier bb on it eh? I will check the dev section.. hopfully there is a thread with it.
Now, I could run the 2.3.4 with the BB and BT works? I could put CWR on it.. so I am still rooted... even run a Faux kernel I guess? I just wont have all the CM settings - correct?

I didn't test everything. I was mainly curious to see if the calling was clear. I didn't keep it on long as ics roms have sucky data for me.
As for video, I don't believe it works on any ics rom. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. I don't really keep up with them because of the data issues.

From my testing, BT does not work on the latest EB AOSP 4.0.4 build 4 release.
also, FFC is upside down on new baseband.
personally, i'd stick with rooted stock or CM7 if your one V21Y. at least until doniqcc irons out the wrinkles. i flashed last night and restored my CM7 backup this morning after going overnight from unbelievably GOOD battery life on CM7 to unbelievably BAD battery life on EB. but it is nice knowing that good things are down the pipe for the G2x. dont lose hope for a fully functioning ICS =]

Loud choppy/helicopter sound in-call

So I had an issue with my g2x and was sent a new one that I got Friday. I backed up my G2X that is rooted and run eaglesblood 2.8 with rom manager and than rooted and booted it up on the new. But than when making calls both me and the person on the other end here this loud choppy noise like a helicopter and we can't hear each other at all. So I got tmobile to send me another one out. I did the same thing and thought everything was fine made test calls and everything. I got away from the house and got a call and the nosie was back. I had the wife on in the house and now I'm back home and the phone works fine when its on WiFi. just when I use it on the network... thoughts?
Upgrade your baseband to 21y, or use and old ROM that's compatible with your current baseband (which is probably 21e).
I am going to look this up a bit but I am not sure how to upgrade the baseband got any tips on where to start reading?
okay I download getril and the baseband was wrong or whatever but now it says fixed but still is doing it.

It's more likely you're on the latest bandbase which is March 2012. That would explain the issue and not as previously suggested.
Search 21e and read up on reverting backwatds... pretty much use 2.3.4 stock modded roms or use cm7 rc3 and up for the baseband you're on now.

That's the latest which isn't compatible with most ROM's. You need to run stock or EB AOSP which don't have the issue or downgrade your bandbase and run whatever you want.
Okay going to try the newest EB loading it up now. how much can I restore than with Titan backup pro?
Wow this new EB has a cool installer app thingy!
I didn't suggest it cause now were probably going to be reading a new thread complaining about things not working, while it is one of the best ics roms!

Don't restore apps. Install clean the first time.
Yea why are people suggesting half working ics roms?
Here are your choices: kwes's stock rooted, bururom, CM7.2 RC3 and latest nightly.

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.

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.

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.

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.

need some quick help with this one

took both mine and my wifes g2x back to 2.3.4 stock. ran the updated baseband on both but for some reason her's still isn't making/receiving calls. also her baseband is showing jul 15 2011.
i did this to hers last night and didn't bother checking it. now shes on a 8 hour road trip with our 2 girls and has no phone.
i also tried the lg support tool but the phone has a jacked up charger port and would never connect to my computer.
If she has the July 2011 baseband try putting the 2.3.3 ROM on it or if she still has CWM installed flash this on her 2.3.4 ROM and see if it fixes it http://db.tt/abISGgzB

If she's still on the 2011 baseband then any cyanogenmod rom should work as well... her phone wont work because she has a v21e baseband and is running a v21y rom.
This has been the cause of alot of confusion on the forums the last couple months.
Hope it works out.

I'm not positive that is entirely correct, I haven't been around here much but last time I checked that latest CM nightlys only work with the latest 21y baseband.
she's on stock 2.3.4. lets not worry about custom roms cause there is no way im talking her through downloading and installing a rom
what i don't get is i used the same zip file to do both of ours. after doing the exact same thing on both i ran getril and mine passed but heres did not. mine is good with 21y and her's prompted for 21e.
is it just a simple fix of her d/l'ing 21y through getril?

Like I said before she needs a v21e based rom not a v21y based rom.
And no all new cm aren't only for the new baseband.
Just because its a custom rom doesn't mean its any more complex or unstable, in fact with this garbage device the custom roms are more stable than the stock ones as far as I'm concerned.

Rooted G2x won't make calls outside of WIFI

Hey guys. I'm new here. I've spent the past hour of so trying to search the forums here and elsewhere. I just haven't found the correct answer.
My g2x is rooted with Hellfire 2.3. It makes calls fine when it's on wifi. As soon as I leave a wifi area, it can still make calls, but there is a clicking sound rather than a dialing and the other party can't hear me and I can't hear them (one person said it sounds like a train chugging.)
The closest thing I've seen is an RIL issue?
I downloaded the GetRIL app but I just wanted to ask before I do something to screw the phone up worse.
BTW. this has been an issue with every mod I've tried so far.
Thanks for your time and please be patient with me. This is very new to me and I'm still learning.
Please search first..
