Just flashed imoseyon's kernel on my rooted thunderbolt and now I'm stuck in a bootloop...any advice? I've running stock rom.
It's the lean version of his kernel and thats the only thing I flashed. I cleared cache + davik cache before flashing.
I was able to do a restore, but I want to use this kernel
It sounds stupid, but try again. Clear cache and dalvik
I've tried 5 times Even tried uninstalling setcpu and unfreezing all the bloatapps that I had frozen. Still get stuck on boot
I've also tried re-downloading the kernal file in case it was corrupt...no luck still.
Which Imoseyon kernel are you running?
Could it be that your particular Tbolt won't handle the lower voltage? Also you might want to check the md5sum again.
Good luck.

I said its the lean version, and he doesnt post md5sum so I have nothing to compare to. But thanks for using my thread to +1 your post count....
wifi is broke and my data is stuck on 1X only now after doing advanced restore-->reboot only.
Did you flash the GB Sense kernel instead of the Froyo kernel?
I used this 1... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1021404 It says Froyo... where can I find the stock kernel that you get after rooting? I need to get wifi/data working again now.
I mount the phone as disk drive on my computer, and I can only view the SD Card...ugh whats going on, so many issues after flashing this kernel
I did a factory reset now and I still cant connect to wifi/3g/4g...I think I need to flash the stock kernel to fix it. Can someone point me in the right direction please?
Flash another rom such as BAMF, whenever you flash a rom it flashes the kernel that is included in the rom as well.
I'm using his kernel just fine. Can you check your radio version?

radio 1.16.00.0402, and Im on the stock ROM, dont want to use a special ROM...
Flash a rom or the stock rom that should get you on another kernel. Also, my TB couldn't handle some of the kernels. I was never able to get it at 1.92ghz. I can only use the normal version. Try one of the other versions. Best of luck!

make sure the kernel is not oc'd to 1.92.................most phones can not handle that.
Some of the user's here, myself included, have been having issues installing any ROMs/ kernels built by Faux. What I'm trying to do is pinpoint the exact cause of this and hopefully rectify the issue.
I'm currently downloading all available ROMs and will install each to determine which are flashable and which are not.
Flashing Procedures
0. Boot into CMW Recovery: External with EXT 4 support using volume down + power method
1. Wipe Data
2. Wipe Cache
3. Wipe Dalvik
4. Format /System
5. Flash ROM
6. Select Power Down from CMW Menu
7. Power on phone without wall charger plugged in
ROM List:
Bionix- Confirmed as working
EagleBlood GB- Confirmed as working
EagleBlood FR- Confirmed as working
Ultimate- Confirmed as working
Light&Sinister- Confirmed as working
Dark&Sinister- Confirmed as working
Faux AOSP-NOW WORKING!!
CM7- Confirmed as working
LG Stock- Confirmed as working
Observations:
Bionix converts /system and /data to ext3. I figured that if the issue we were having with Faux was due to format errors then I could just flash Faux over Bionix and it would boot. In testing, it seems like Faux gets further when flashed this way but still refuses to boot. Before I would only get the initial LG screen and then it would black out. Now I can get to the second LG screen with blue background but it hangs there. Will run logcat to see what is causing the freeze once I get logcat running again.
My current theory is that there is a difference in the boot.img that Faux has built for his ROM that will not boot correctly. I have the same issue with his kernels as well. They boot to the first LG splash screen and then the screen shuts off. Still struggling with my logcat issue so I'm at a standstill until that is fixed.
Development:
I was finally able to get pure AOSP to boot by flashing Faux's AOSP and then flashing Morfic's CM7 kernel. I personally believe this definitely proves that there is something in Faux's boot.img that doesn't function properly on all devices.
At Faux's suggestion, I flashed his Stock Voltage kernels in order to see if I could get the phone to boot.
Kernel:
[ Start @ 1.0 GHz, Stock Voltage, Max @ 1.2 GHz ]
(Official LGE/Tegra Voltage Values, Same as STOCK LGE Kernel)
CM7 Kernel Version 0.1.9- Boots to second LG splash screen then freezes.
CM7 Kernel Version 0.1.9 With EXT4-Booted fine but still displayed Morfic boot animation for some reason. Kernel version shows as Faux's in about phone, though.
I want to flash my first ROM, any suggestions on which one is the most stable and better with battery life than the Stock ROM?

I didn't test any of the ROMs for quality but I would personally stick with a Froyo based ROM for now. Gingerbread is simply too buggy and missing a lot of features.

I was finally able to get pure AOSP to boot by flashing Faux's AOSP and then flashing Trinity's CM7 kernel. I personally believe this definitely prooves that there is something in Faux's boot.img that doesn't function properly on all devices. That would explain why I am unable to flash any of his kernels, either.
Most likely scenario is that you have a "weaker" chip which cannot handle the default OC to 1.1 and Under volting. Because of your case and a few others like you with the "weaker" chips, I have decided from next version on to include LG STOCK VOLTAGE version of my kernel as default kernel for the ROM and it's up to the users to install the OC/UV version themselves afterwards.
My solution is while in CWM, after you flashed the ROM, before you reboot, FLASH my STOCK VOLTAGE (SV) version of the kernel, then reboot. You should have NO ISSUES with STOCK VOLTAGE kernels.
So far for MT4G and G2x, I have been lucky with my phones. Both phones I can Undervolt and overclock AT the SAME TIME with very aggressive settings and remain stable with multiple runs of stress tests and benchmarks.

The only problem with that theory, Faux, is that Morfic's kernel undervolts as well. Flashing his kernel on top of your ROM is the current workaround that I've found.

I don't know what Morphic is doing with his under volting, theres no source code to compare. My source is based on CM7 with my tweaks added and its available via github for inspection.

Please don't view my opinions as doubting your ability. This has just been a frustrating journey for a lot of us because we want to use your kernels/ROMs. I couldn't find anywhere where this had been addressed so I decided to take it upon myself. At this time, the two options we have are flashing your stock voltage kernel or Morfic's. Now that it's booted and running, I can say that you've built a beautiful ROM and I hope you continue to support it. Amazing work.

I took NO offense of your investigation or posts. I am actually glad you did all these. You have provided me reason for using stock voltage kernel as default. I was contemplating about this change a while back, but since your post, I decided to do it so more people can try my ROM without having random reboots or issues due to UV/OC combination.
I am simply posting what I can and cannot do. I can do only what I can read and see.

I know this isn't the first thread of this kind to be made but everything seems out of date, a month marks a lot of updates fixing old bugs and making new ones. Anyway, I'm looking for a custom ROM and possibly a separate kernel that is "stable" (as stable as a custom ROM could be) and battery friendly. I was going to do AOKP or paranoid android but I hear in later updates they got buggy from using newer radios and some people are getting the sleep of death. I'm also interested in the Siyah kernel for the lulzactiveq governor but I question its stability and compatibility with other ROMs. I'm a noob and this is going to be my first flashing of a ROM aside from the massively fail attempts on my old Droid Pro. I'm already rooted and unlocked and made a NANDroid with clockwork recovery but advice on flashing and software is cool. I hear with Odin the yellow triangle pops up when you download boot but with cwr it doesn't which is why I plan on using it. Also, exactly how does one clean flash? I know dirty is just clearing caches so which should I do?
Using the latest OTA with the G7 baseband, still ICS.
TL;DR Stable bettery-friendly ROM, advice on flashing, possibly a kernel for ROM for better battery life?
Thanks a lot, sorry again for making the millionth thread on this matter!
Big fan of CleanRom here. I've tried different JB-based roms but keep coming back. I'm on CR 2.5 now with the HD radio, but have been on 2.1 with CleanKernel previously, along with the stock and G7 radios.
A "clean" flash will have you wipe data/factory reset as well. You should do this when switching Rom bases. I dirty flashed from CR 2.1 up to 2.5 and haven't had issues though.
Edit: FWIW, I can routinely see over 24hrs on a charge under normal/low usage.
Edit 2: If you care about your apps' data, you might want to go ahead and run a backup with something like Titanium Backup before doing a clean flash.
I'm no expert but I will answer a few of your questions. I rooted a month ago and have flashed every rom I can find, every rom I used has its own quirks and nothing is absolutely perfect.
It wouldnt hurt to just flash a few roms and see what you like best. As long as you have your backup and you can boot into recovery I dont see how it could hurt right?
At this moment I am using LiquidSmooth-JellyBean v2.0 RC3. Its quick and really clean but I have to manually cycle WiFi to get it working after I leave a routers range (i'm sure theres a fix but I havent looked yet)
A Clean Flash- Wipe your dalvik cache from recovery>advanced and data wipe/factory reset . This is wiping all your phone settings/data. Backup before this point since theres no going back unless you have a backup.
A Dirty Flash- you are installing on top of an old ROM without clearing all of your cache- you can retain settings but will have a high possibility of problems.
GoodLuck!
Thanks, I'm looking at cleanROM now. Is it ICS or JB? Usually it's either mentioned or there's a [JB]/[Jelly Bean] thing in the title but it's got nothing.
Also, does anything not work like wifi-direct or NFC? I know sometimes it's a per-person thing and other times there's a bunch of stuff you have to do to get things working properly.
If it doesn't have wifi or NFC and is ICS based I may as well play with other ROMs then. I don't want my phone OOC for too long though b/c I'm looking for work and lack a house phone.
Touchwiz ICS is the most stable at this time! It does not matter if its Beans, Synergy, or Clean Rom...they all are based off of VRALG1 Touchwiz... anything different between those are just additional mods baked into a stock rom. AOSP still has RIL issues, meaning the data handoff between 4g/3g is bad. Alot of times when Im on the outskirts of a solid 4g area the device's data connection flakes out.
CleanRom is using VRALG7 base and that is ICS. From what I remember CleanRom was pretty stable.
Quick definition:
Anytime you do not format your system, your not doing a true clean install.
Factory reset/data, cache, dalvik is a considered a clean install only when running the same base version (4.0 or 4.1 for example).
When changing base versions you should be doing all that + formatting your system (cwm under mounts and storage) or your just flashing a jb rom on top of an ICS rom. Issues arise because of this. Most devs are calling for this too.

Synergy R73 seems to be the best so far. No reboots. Fast stable. Had Clean Rom Prior to it which was also great. Tried Jellywiz but kept having issues.
So only ICS roms are stable? I kinda want jelly though, which ROM seems the most stable? I hear older versions of AOKP and Paranoid work better then the newer ones. Siyah + AOKP might be neat, alternatively Euroskanks CM Kang project with the same Siyah kernel. I've read some great things about lulzpowerq which is why I want that kernel so much, probably with SIO or NOOP for i/o since I hear they're wonderful for battery life. The main battery problem is from using the HD radio though, right? So just flash to G1 and it should be good?

Synergy .r73 and KT747 ...
Most of the issues you hear about are caused by overclocking (anything above 1728 MHz is just for bragging rights or quadrant scores), underclocking (anything under 384 MHz is asking for trouble) undervolting (don't get ridiculous here ... your CPU needs power), using a task killer and/or applying unnecessary tweaks (e.g., V6 Supercharger ... totally unnecessary).
My phone, wifi and GPS work flawlessly, and my 4g speeds are off the charts.

Well according to that thread "You may see tiny blue text on the bootloader screen indicating that it is copying." So I would assume that's it.
To be honest, when researching this whole lost IMEI issue, I was so paranoid that I did EVERY type of backup that was discussed in these forums. I saved every backup file to my dropbox account, my phone, and my computer just in case. I'll admit, I'm a bit more care free when flashing now, but I have yet to experience a lost IMEI issue.
If you're paranoid like me then it never hurts to do the other backup methods.

there is no stable jellybean/cm10.x or ics/cm9.
your options with those are the hackfest versions that have no HWA, so no vid recording, some things like netflix don't work either.
Or you can have the non hackfest jellybean which has HWA but no working RIL. (NO MOBILE/CELLULAR ABILITY)
CM7, build 3-1-13 for LGP999 from get.cm
Than I'd suggest mazout360s kernel v205OC.
Also, look and see what your baseband is in under System Settings about phone. If you have the March 2012 basebands you also need to flash the base band fix.

I'm at work till 10pm so sorry if I.can't reply in a prompt fashion.
The guides should have told you everything you needed and order to flash.
You still need to let me know what your baseband is as well. It should be March 2012 since you mentioned you were on stock 2.3.4.
If thats true, than you need to flash the baseband fix. If I were you, since you didn't flash all at once, I'd start over and wipe everything.
So boot into CWM and
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache
goto advanced and wipe dalvik cache
goto mounts and format system
flash in this order( this is the order i use anyway)
flash cm7 rom
flash kernel
flash new baseband fix
flash gapps
than goto advanced and select fix permissions
reboot and wait 10 min
reboot wait 5 min
proceed with phone setup
reboot enjoy
links:
you already have the rom
gapps---> http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip
if your on the march2012 baseband you will need this fix--->http://d-h.st/OkL

As I told you, if you flashed one of Adam's CM10 variants, you will have full HWA and I've heard it's pretty snappy, but the RIL was not working, so no cellular connection. CM7 is ok, there is still a lot of tweaking you can do.

As I told you, if you flashed one of Adam's CM10 variants, you will have full HWA and I've heard it's pretty snappy, but the RIL was not working, so no cellular connection. CM7 is ok, there is still a lot of tweaking you can do.

Have been using CM10 for two days now, only have noticed the JuiceDefender app will not run properly. Browsing is super quick.
So very recently my phone started to do things on its own. It starts pressing things on the screen randomly on its own, the screen locks up. I would have to keep tapping something to get it to work, or lock the screen with the power button, then unlock it to work, but then the issues comes back after a few seconds. Its rooted with Cyanogen 7 20130301-NIGHTLY, kernel 2.6.32.55.
I reset the phone to a fresh rom install, and the issues were still there. I changed out the battery, because I am suspicious that it is an issue with the battery or power.
Any help appreciated, thanks!
Flash a custom kernel. I never run CM7 with its stock kernel. The thing about the G2X is that every individual device is "different." My G2X handles the trinity kernel best, Mazout's kernel is great but gives me SOD's constantly, although I have not tested any of his latest builds since I only run ICS hack fests. I think flashing a new kernel would help you out a lot. I would recommend trinity (as they're my favorite), Mazout's kernel or Faux's kernel. In that order. I would also try over clocking and under volting when you get the chance.

Can I flash the kernal while keeping the same rom and contents?
Yes. I would just clear the caches first. Then flash the new kernel

Ya I figured that out, I tried both trinity kernels and mazout, for some reason it would not boot up past the load screen. Not sure if I had to wait that long. I just went back to my nandroid backup, but for whatever reason the problem is not there anymore. I suspected that this was a hardware issue. Funny thing, my spare battery just broke down, it started to inflate. I need to get a new phone me thinks.
But now I am curious as to why I couldn't get the kernel to work. I would still like to do that. I even tried a stable CM7 rom and then flashed the kernels, still to no avail.
It takes a few minutes to boot up after you flash a new kernel because the system has to rebuild the caches.

Few minutes does not mean over an hour does it? It just gets stuck at the boot logo for at least 45 minutes before I get annoyed and turn it off.
Lolol no!!!!! Few minutes means 5 at most lol. Are you sure you're flashing the correct kernel? Mazout does make more then one kernel. So does Trinity. Not trying to make you sound stupid or anything.....i just can't imagine why the kernel would cause the phone to freeze during boot.

I have asked about my problem here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=49089235#post49089235
I got the correct kernel, just some weird issues, but some guy is trying to help me out.
Make sure to use the correct recovery. At least trinity is incompatible with CWM touch.
