Thanks for giving the SK4G new hope. Cant wait to see some progress although I know that's going to take some time

Yea, My hope is to get 3 different kernels running on this phone in two weeks. It may take a little bit longer.
1) cm6 based on the stock froyo kernel src drop.
2) teamacid's current 2.6.35 gb/ics
3) teamacid's port of aries 3.0.8 ics (eventually jb)
After the kernel is up and booting a basic set of features on the rom, I'll be sending it back to TLS and pushing out some test images.
There will be new recoveries and... I'm sure... a fist full of problems to work through. But it's a start.
Thanks again to nxd!

Wow two weeks? thats great news and thanks nxd, TheLastSidekick and bhundven for everything!

Well, two weeks of straight work. In the end, including having to live my real life as well, it may be a month. The two weeks being time-sliced between finding a job, being Mr. Mom and other work I am doing.

Well, I'm going to leave the testing to bhundven, he's playing with serious stuff here akin to fire. If you play with it and mess up, you will get burned unless you have unbrickable mod down. (Which he said he'll be doing). Unless you're willing to jump into the fire, I don't recommend it. Not to say he's going to put out something unstable, but keep in mind he's pretty much developing from the ground up and problems can arise.

Nah, don't need unbrickable mod for kernel testing.
I will do it if something bad happens, but I doubt that will happen.

Worst case scenario, I act like a total newb and flash the kernel to a bootloader partition. FAIL!
But, I'm sure I'll be a bit more professional then that.
With the kernel, the worst case scenario is having issues going from BML -> MTD or MTD back to BML. (Read this for explanation of BML and MTD)
But that shouldn't affect the SBL (Secondary BootLoader), so I should still be able to use a usb jig to get to download mode and go back to BML at any time.
The last worst case scenario is being totally silly stupid and fat finger a voltage setting and hard bricking the phone by over volting or over heating.
At that point, I'd just buy you a new phone.

Lol no offense I'm not sure I'd need one. The only reason I still have the Sidekick is for a backup in case my Galaxy S 2 decides to commit suicide.

Official Captivate Flasher Anonymous (CFAT)

I think it's getting kind of ridiculous that I flash roms 50 times a week. My wife is mad at me, and my co-workers say I just haven't been the same. I feel it's time that I startOCFAT for those of us in deep rom flashing troubles and figure out how to get our lives straightened out.
Any suggestions?

Hey man, sometimes you gotta leave well enough alone.. I went flash nuts on my DX, and obviously on my TP2 (WinLame), but with my TB I have really tried to tone it back a bit. These devices are getting more and more expensive and as cool as it is to constantly customize, take advantage of new features, etc... it's still just a phone. At some point it becomes an obsession and not jumping on GB like the masses, I have every right to be glad. It was worth a share anyway, I can't possibly be alone.

Same here. With my Droid 1 I flashed once every few days. Wasted so much time trying the latest and greatest. Now with my thunderbolt I'm trying to enjoy the phone and my life instead of spending 90% of my time flashing. I can't believe the latest GB radios are bricking phones. Just amazing... That said, I did have das bamf 2.0 for a week before going back to 1.6.3. Lol. Too addicting.

The dog barks but the caravan moves on.
I got the GB bootloop. didn't think anything of it, just quickly restored BAMF, and no problems after that.
Then I read jcase's warning and reverted to VirusROM PDQ. I miss netflix, but I believe I'll wait for a more stable option. I can't afford another phone...

Didn't realize I'd offend anyone, wowzas, people take this stuff pretty seriously. And for anyone that said this was an "I told you so", nowhere in my post does it say you missed warnings or should feel stupid for going with GB and bricking, I guess Netflix just wasn't a big enough selling point for me to try it. But now that you mention it..If you feel stupid, you should.

You offended ppl with your pompous attitude & laughing at others that had the misfortune of bricking their phones cuz they had bigger balls than you & were willing to try the bleeding edge. You may "have a right to be glad" but you don't have to be an douchebag about it. If/when you do move up to GB, don't be surprised when others ignore your requests for help getting your **** straight with an attitude like that. And to quote you: If YOU feel stupid, you should.

[ROM][WIP][ANDROID 4.0][ICS] ICS Sandwich SDK Port [11/2/11]]

--ANYTHING THAT HAPPENS TO YOUR PHONE IS IN NO WAY MY FAULT--
--MAKE SURE TO MAKE A BACKUP BEFORE HAND IN CASE SOMETHING GOES WRONG--
So since Ice Cream Sandwich just came out and alot of people(including me) don't want to wait for it, I decided to go ahead and try to port it from the resources I have. This is in no way a daily rom. ScreenShots attached. Right now all you can do is unlock it and pull up menus. You might be able to get into settings if you are lucky, but yea.
WORKS:
-The keyboard but the mappings are off
-The menu and back button
-Screen off on
DOESN'T WORK:
-Touchscreen
-Anything that wasn't listed above
Download Link:

I am going to go to Lucky's and buy me an ICS right now and buy myself a gingerbread lattie at starbucks. Then later when you get more things fixed with this rom I will flash this bad boy. Cyanogenmod should work on this after they are done with the gingerbread port.

Ahh unfortunately they won't. Most major devs and developer projects don't go after SDK ports not just ours in specific, they're too broken to fully benefit anything as of now but in the future with source it could prove beneficial. But I'm with you on that though.
@Xboxfanj and Allmasteraa: You guys have 14 key different keylayout files within \system\usr\keylayout and none of them wholely match the Epic save for two perhaps. So your key placing issues can lie within that. Also, in most cases the files within \system\usr\keychars are .kcm.bin in most of the instances I've seen them and edited them, the ones lying within this build are just .kcm so that can be an issue also but a fix too. I just thought I could let you know so it could be of some help to you. Not going to flash this just yet, or anything for that matter since I've a need for some stability, but just wanted to help where I thought I may be able to.

its literally an AOSP build... 4.0.1 (with a bunch of other digits after)... same old kernel... sound doesnt work so you can even make phone calls... its a mess to say the least...
and i doubt it would be fully working since we still dont have tegra2 drivers from nvidia... 2.2 to 2.3 is a doable fix, 2.3 to 4.0 is no beuno... nvidia or LG has to throw us a bone on this one...

Cant wait for this to be put on this device. Tried a Galaxy Nexus at the local store and was amazed at the software. I would get one of those but seriously Tegra 2 is better than sgrx 540, Trust me that GN can not do what this G2x can in terms of gaming!

cm10 soon?

i know we had a thread and everything reguarding this and the p990 (2x), however the changelog on BBQLog has the p999 G2x actually implemented into the menu for devices. this is good news for us that have been waiting patiently !!
click LGE and its there offically
http://changelog.bbqdroid.org/#
Was it not there before? And I wouldn't get too excited, the Optimus One is listed there also and I HIGHLY doubt that is going to get official CM10
I believe that's still the cm7 changelog.
It just says cm10
It wasn't there before. When the 2x got close it was there. It wasn't there a couple days ago, that's for sure.
Perhaps for cm7, even if it is for a nightly once a month.

It is certainly new look at the log dates there is work being done today also the work has been done every few hours apart.
No, no and no.
The entry in the BBQLog has been there for quite some time.
If you knew how it worked, you'd also know that all of those changes are generic and have absolutely jack squat to do with the p999.
Try selecting a different, unrelated device if you don't believe me. You'll see the same changes. Maybe more as other devices have cm10 changes checked in.
None of the changes I see on BBQLog say anything about the p999 getting cm10.
My money is on "ain't gonna happen". If it was going to happen, we'd have heard something by now from Ricardo or others. The fact that there's been silence basically tells me that there's a huge roadblock and nobody wants to take the heat for coming out publicly and killing off the G2X's last hope.
EDIT: If I'm wrong, I'll eat a sock.

I take the silence to mean that no one has really given it a go yet. I think if there was a huge roadblock, they wouldn't keep that a secret. Just today someone posted an unrelated G2X comment on one of RC's G+ posts... If he had tried and didn't think he could get it to work, I think he would have let us know, at least to shut us up a little bit.

That's not necessarily the case. Letting people know this device is hopeless could also cause more people to bug him.
This speculation is unwarranted anyhow. I am however curious to why there hasn't been an update on CM10 for us. I do think that likely there was an unexpected encountered problem like the call bug issue on the O2x and still persisting WiFi drain.
And I have two other devices running a full working CM10, and besides the working camera and better battery life, they really aren't that different in terms of fluidity. If RC releases a ported CM10 for us it will likely still have most of the same issues.
We just have to patient. I mean, I don't have the money to buy another device, so I have no choice. If you have had the opportunity to jump ship... why *Haven't* you already? It's been nearly a full year since LG dropped this phone from support and we found out Nvidia won't share drivers, and some of you are still here complaining?

I take the silence to mean that no one has really given it a go yet. I think if there was a huge roadblock, they wouldn't keep that a secret. Just today someone posted an unrelated G2X comment on one of RC's G+ posts... If he had tried and didn't think he could get it to work, I think he would have let us know, at least to shut us up a little bit.

Never think you understand what an angry programmer will do. They are not like regular people and won't feel at home on earth until the mothership picks them up.
Since ics official for p990 gonna come shortly, I guess latest we get what we want is sometime after source drop.
Beyond that I can't comment on what I don't know. I won't be buying an lg product for two reasons now though.

Yea I figured he's going to use official p990 sources first to fix up cm10 for o2x, then hopefully port to our phone.
Hopeful speculation.

Idk about original post but 2 things bugs me and this is my first/last time complaining: 1. Its been about a month and not a single word. An yes,no, maybe would be enough so I would atleast know to whether hope patiently or dont hope and 2. I cant do anything about it :'( ow well lol
Agreed just a simple yes after p990 is up and running and no ETA would be all I would need. Sorry I know I will get flamed for this but I can't hold back..... RC is a xxxxxxxx for never answering his over 50 or so inquire's about p999 .... I stopped counting at 50. Even a " I will get to it in time" would be something.

Allow me to play devils advocate....
I don't see anything wrong with people just wanting an update. Even a plain "yes we will eventually get to the p999" just so people are not waiting in vain. That would probably put out a lot of the repetitive "When are we getting cm10" questions. A lot of people are patiently waiting for an update, or a word, or anything and it would be nice to know for sure that something will be done eventually. Right now it just comes across as the project is dead in the water.
I am not bagging on the developers btw. They are awesome because they do this stuff for free and on their spare time, but it would only take a minute to put the word out, if it's a go or not. Just saying...

The moment they say "No", the mass exodus would begin. I wish they'd just come out and say "No" so that this subforum would quiet down.
The p990 just got dropped again from CM support, so doubt we'll get it.
Does RC know that the G2x is also experiencing the bug sound? Maybe some one can port it over to check. It's the only thing holding it back from being Stable.

P990 General thread, "CM10 User Thread" Tony said it himself.
I suggest you guys start looking over at their threads, because not much is happening here other than complaining.

The P990 won't get CM10 properly working until the ICS source drops for the phone. Luckily there have been rom leaks, but who knows how long it's going to take LG.
And then IF they get the sources we MIGHT get a fully working CM build.
Don't hold your breath guys, a lot of stars have to line up before we'll get anything.
