Intrigued by 1.92 oc. Which kernel/rom combo is best for that support?
Sent from my Xoom using XDA App
To be honest its not advisable to get to 1.92. Too unstable and performance gains over 1.4 are minimal. If you want fast, run perfect storm 1.4 with ziggys kernel oc to 1.4. Gingerbread roms are nice but unstable and the accompanying radio is horrendous. Finally the gb kernels are not good yet since the source has not dropped.

Thanks! I waited for the lg revolution and that thing is a total bust. Excited!

I personally like Imoseyon's kernels best. Lots of good ROMs available. Play with your options and see what suits you best.
Is the Netflix app available for non gingerbread roms?

I don't believe so. If you're asking because of the radio issue, check out CM7. It's Gingerbread and has a working Netflix but without the brick risk.

Aren't there inoperable features in that though? And will any oc gb kernel work with it?

It's not prefect, but no rom is. The main problems are:
1) toggling from wifi to mobile data requires a reboot, although there are reports that this has been fixed
2) some people experience buggy data connections while many do not
Not any kernel will work but Imoseyon's does and is quite good (arguably better than on Sense roms). There are others as well.
While it's pushed as pre-alpha, it's plenty stable enough to run as a daily driver. Many people do. I would rather run it than a Sense 2.1 rom.

I've been using CM7 for about a week now, there was an update on Saturday that fixed the wi-fi and data connections work fine. Only problem I noticed was going into an "Extended Network" area caused 3G to drop, but if you enable international data roaming it connects back to 3G.

Are there any ROMS biult upon 2.3.7 yet? I'm currently running GSInfuse, and I like the ROM, but I would prefer running the latest version of Android. (I always like having the latest and greatest kernel, OS, and modem on my phone).
Cm7 runs 2.3.7
Sent from my SGH-I997 using XDA App
Can I O/C CM7, or run my own Kernel? I personally like to keep up to date with the latest modems, and I'm running Kernel Infusion-GB-CoreA. If I can't OC it to at least 1.6 GHz, I won't run it.
cm7 has a built in oc kernel which does go to 1.6ghz. you can not run other gingerbread kernels on it that arent meant for cm7.
Cool on the Kernel, but can I install new modems to the ROM? I'm currently running KK3, and the speed is great.

Yes, I'm running KK3 on CM7 -- working flawlessly.
One caution though if you're considering CM7 -- bluetooth doesn't work, and won't work any time soon...
If that's a deal-breaker for you, then don't bother with CM7.
I've learned to live without my BT headset, because I cannot live without CM7
U can overclock to 1.6 on cm7 but it'll crash or at least mine did. 1.4 works tho.

Wish they could fix it. $250+ tickets for not using BT makes me have to have it. Loved CM7 on my captivate.
CM7 Bluetooth works, just not with all devices (headsets in particular). Wiimotes work perfectly and it also pairs with my computers.
bluetooth data works, bluetooth audio doesnt.
Cm7 says 2.3.7 but its actually 2.3.4....2.3.6 is the highest unofficial firmware we have
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda premium
MIUI is 2.3.7 and there is now one built with ICS framework. It still has the same issues with Bluetooth audio though.

where are you getting that information from?
I recommend miui. It performs magnificently, but allows you to change your theme daily if you so choose. I'm running miui @ 1.4ghz and it has no problem with it.

the miui build is based off the cm7 build. you will still run into issues like bluetooth audio. so keep that in mind.
My "information" is i have compiled it and taken it completely apart and examied all the firmware and libs....i study....alot...check the forum

No offense intended, but you don't study hard enough then. You are completely and utterly incorrect. CM7 is indeed 2.3.7. Period.

My dad just bought the wind mobile version of this phone. What is a smooth basic ROM you guys would recommend for him? he doesn't need anything fancy
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
I like weapon but you could always start with the basic rooted stock rom and go from there.
I suggest eaglebloods latest rom, which can be found in the development section of the g2x. It is extremely smooth and stable. I would also use faux123 4.6 kernel with that rom.

Must try Tsugi. It is a pretty basic rom but is blazing fast and reliable. It has never crashed on me as long as I have been running it. Can't say enough good things about it.

I've heard great things about Tsugi! So +1. I've tried Weapons, wasn't my cup of tea. Froze quite alot in the early builds.

Really? This poor horse...
I use Weapon 3 which is based on stock Android 2.3.3 with Faux123-0.1.3 recompiled kernel. It has very good battery life, is fast, and very stable.
Galnet MIUI, it really is impressive
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
After trying both Tsugi and Weapon, I personally prefer Tsugi. It seems to work slightly better for me, and I overall seem to have fewer issues. The LG Camera also seems to work slightly better on it although I can't point to any definitive area, other than the fact it has a panorama mode (which only sort of works).
Weapon is great if you want to run Touchwiz, which I find makes more sense to people who don't know what they're doing. Another big deal is that Tsugi doesn't have the shutdown issue where when the phone runs out of battery instead of turning off the screen just goes black and drains the battery more. This may or may not cause damage to the battery, but it's not worth the risk.
Just my two cents
i would say eagle
Jboxer's 2.3.4 LG Colorized is what I settled on after trying pretty much every current ROM.
Sent from my LG-P999 using Tapatalk
I would say leave it alone. usually the one originally on there is the safest and most stable. I have installed the latest nightly build 201 from cm. Its for me and I know what to do if something is wrong.
My wife's android phones I always kept at stock for her so whenever there is an issue its easier to fix.
Just stay stock bud and your dad should be fine ok?
Miui.us is Da best so far with trinity kernel,axura, then tsugi? There's a mess of them? Lol

Anyone able to play "Draw Something" on any CM7 based roms without it freezing? The game would start up but then after like 20 seconds it would freeze. I've tried on a few CM7 based roms and even MIUI but it only seems to be fully functional with no issues on stock roms.
Iam having problems to with it also on my cm7 T-Mobile g2x it would freeze and can't touch anything. Can't even play it.

I works "OK" on cm9. still very usable becasue i have been playing it for the last week, but it does freeze up every once in a while, and FC, and one thime form me it froze completely and i had to do a battery pull. So it works, but not really super well.
I'm having the same issue on the latest nightly for my G2x. I thought it might have been AdFree or another conflicting app but I haven't had any luck narrowing it down. Anyone find a way around this?
Add me to the can't play list also.

Yeah this poses a problem for me as well. Girlfriend just found out about this game and she was in love with it. Then found out it doesn't work on CM7 ROM's... F'in bummer.
Had to wipe and flash a stock based 2.3.3 ROM in the middle of the night just because she wanted to play the game with me.
Lol needless to say, I hope this problem is fixed somehow because stock based G2x ROM's are so bad compared to CM7.

Lol I am in the same boat bro, my girl is begging me to play every day and Im on CM7. Sucks. Was thinking about wiping and flashing a stock ROM myself but just not worth the hassle. Hoping someone finds a fix soon, I tried everything.
Also thought it was an adblock problem, till I stumbled accross this topic.
What? Are you guys running straight CM7 or CM7 based ROMS? I am running EaglesBlood v2.8, which is based off of CM7, and Draw Something works perfectly. Even faster than it was running on Bionic Reloaded v1.2 which is based off of stock.
The only "lag" I noticed was when I first started up the app, it took around 10 seconds to show me the login screen.

I'm running that too, and it crashes non-stop for me.
What kernel are the people that are affected running?
Personally, I'm running Faux's UV one, without DS.
I'm running straight CM7, the latest nightly to be exact. With the latest update of the game I can launch the app almost every time but it freezes when I try to enter actual gameplay. Ridiculous.
Try using Faux's kernel.

This is the fix. I installed Faux kernel with CM stock voltage. No freezes and ****. You can try other kernels too I guess. The only other kernel I tried was trinity and stock and they were both freezing.

Can anyone else confirm this?
I am running ICS (AOKP?) on my G2x, and have installed many apps. Recently I noticed that the phone kind of runs slow - sometimes laggy when I open such as apps as pandora and google docs, etc. That makes me wonder if I should look for a faster ROM. Which one is the fasted? ICS is generally more resource hungry? or Gingerbread could be lighter and faster generally speaking?
Go with an OC/UV kernel instead. You can try faux049b5 or morfics or harsh 1904 or 1504 with OC. They are all good in their own sense.
The respective links of the kernels are in the development section.
Anything besides ICS
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
Well, there's a few things we need to know. Who's ROM are you using? EaglesBlood, Hellfire, CM9, Team Kangs? And what kernel are you running? The stock included in the ROM or did you flash a different one?
I'm using EaglesBlood ICS 4.0.3 with stock Faux Kernel. I didn't have that issue. That's one recommendation. Depending on which one your using will depend in other recommendations. If you decide you use AOSP (MIUI) instead I recommend Stormaggedon's ROM's. MIUI.us kept giving me force crash errors for force crash errors for a force crash error for reporting the force crash on start up. Didn't matter how long it sat nor how many times I restarted it.
Try EaglesBlood first. I'm about to clash Hellfire ICS with the harsh kernel. I'll let you know how that runs.
Edit: HellFire ICS with Harsh Kernel works nice. Its smooth, no lag, oh and in the developers settings have kill all apps when you leave them. Try that as well.
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA
Pretty much all the roms are fast on here. Its what you use your phone for and install on it that eventually start slowing it down.
I know I personally favor the hellfire phoenix rom, but asking or saying which rom is the best/fastest is kinda ignorant as they all are the best for their own reasons.

Your missing one update. He's up to 1.09 now. Oh and um... yeah, GB is slow. Something I figured out when I made the change to ICS. But, I think I'll humor it. Ive been looking for a half decent GB rom. Might try EB's out.

Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
Go with any GB rom (CM7.2 RC1 for me with Faux kernel), they are much smoother and faster than ICS roms currently are. I have tried every ICS rom (even with harshs latest kernels as of yesterday) and while they have made great strides I find CM7.2 RC1 to still be much smoother and faster (especially under heavy usage).
