Hi all,
My LG G2x phone flash with Pheonix Blood 1.6 CM7 is acting weird. It would have full signal bar, but I can't make or receive call. I would get a message saying 'No Services Area', but then it would work again after a few try. It happen when I do not use the phone for awhile and it sit there on my desk or in my pocket. I seem to only get this error when I am using CM7, because the Miui Rom is fine when I try it. I google it but not many post out there with this issue, and the one that do has it has no answer. Could someone please help? thank you.

I'd say re-flash and if that doesn't fix it, go to a different ROM. I used Phoenix Blood myself for about a day, then switched. Check your PM.
Yeah try reflash a couple of rom, seem like any cyanogenmod base rom give me that issue, and Miui give me random crash.
Phoenix Blood is technically a mod based on CM7, don't blame it on CM7. I had problems with PB as well, the one I have now, none. Haven't tried MIUI.
Yeah, I try the stable build from cyanogenmod website, the nightly build from the G2X forumn, and Eagle blood with all the same result for some reason. Yet stock and Miui doesn't have that issue. So that was why I though it was a CM issue.

If so it would have to be something with your phone, I don't get that problem and I haven't seen it mentioned before. Let me know how it goes with the ROM and Kernel I mentioned to you, and don't forget to flash gaaps.
Yup tried that kernel and rom you recommended and still having the same issue. Guess back to either stock or Miui for now and hope for better luck with ICS.

Weird, sounds like a phone problem to me. Good luck.
So after installing this amazing rom and loving it for a week or two; I see a kernel update and install it. Everything went smooth but I lost my wifi after the fact. I was hoping someone could help me keep the kernel and get the wifi going. nothing about wifi problems were stated and it work fine previously. I wiped everything and even tried the wifi fix manager thingy i got with the ics rom i was running previously to see if that would do it but to no avail. I wanted to ask the developer but need some 10 post so help a bro out!
p.s....gotta give props to the man who had me running jb before anyone of my friends with newer phones!!! RANDOMBLAME!!!!

ditto, this happend with my Paranoidandroid install as well. kernel allowed me to stay running without crash, but wifi is a pretty big letdown...
unfortunatly, without the kernel itself being fixed, or the wifi module fixed, we are stuck looking for another alternate kernel... oh yeah, we are pretty limited.
thanks
appreciate the quick reply man. And I'll be keeping my eye out then

found out a very possible reason . are you using his kernel with another system or is this all jt only? he mentioned something about kangbang changing drivers.

So I'm only using it with jelly time or jb. I'm flashing the os then the kernel cuz the os installs its own. This is an updated kernel for the os.I'm thinking i should maybe wipe the cache partition after the the os then do the kernel but at the same time I would think that other problems would be happening if that was the issue. What do you think?

does the system function without the kernel update?
if it does, you might want to hold off on updating til the ROM updates for it.

Hey Guys -
I'm a little new to the forum, I've usually just had a friend who is more savvy with this stuff help me out. He refers to this site always so, instead of bothering him, I wanted to see if I could solve this problem myself.
I just flashed my ROM to CM 10.1 (the stable one found on their site) last night, and it works fine but I just noticed that the camera will not connect, no matter what app I'm in (camera, instagram, etc.).
Does anyone know of any way to fix this? I've been trying to research before posting on here, I saw someone say something about kernels, leankernel and ktoonsez's kernel? Again, I'm really new to this so I didn't quite understand what I needed to do.
Any help would be appreciated, thank you!

Flash the I535VRBMB1 modem/radio from this thread..
It's a kernel issue from what I can tell. The above radio/modem reverts back to the previous modem/radio.
Ktoonz's kernel will fix the camera issue, but it will break your audio playback via Pandora. At least on mine (CM 10.1.0; KT747 6/26), it will only play in mono.

Interesting.
I switched from KT 6/26 to CM10.1.0 Stable stock kernel and audio worked fine. I figured it was KT 6/26's fault.
I should clarify: my issue is specifically with Pandora. The stock music app works fine.
Thanks guys for the quick responses! I'm looking for the kernel you're talking about on that other thread, but, and I realized I actually don't know how to specifically flash a kernel?
I've used Odin and everything before, under the instruction of my friend I referenced before, so I know my way around it, I just don't quite remember the steps. I just want to verify...the kernel file would be a .tar, and you would flash it with Odin PDA?
I'm sure there's steps I'm missing.
Got the file, last question (besides me asking the process of how to flash a kernel):
do I MD5 check the kernel file? I keep seeing that brought up in other threads
luckily, I just found that I can flash the kernel file via TWRP, so that's easier than Odin (Odin just scares me for some reason)
Ok all, I flashed that kernel. Phone is working fine. (I was nervous as hell before I told TWRP to flash the kernel)
But the camera is still not working....any other suggestions?

Flash this file the same way you flashed the kernel and update to the latest baseband. If that doesn't work, try reflashing the kernel after.

That seems to be the same file (from the same site) I downloaded and just flashed before. Is it different in some way?
Also, how do I go about upgrading my baseband?
thank!
The situation is a little confused right now.
The stable. CM10.1 release requires MB1 modem, the latest nightlies work with MF1. There is no requirement to change kernels, unless you really really want the stable release AND the mf1 modem.
If you read the first post in the official cm thread in QA or original development you'll see this along with links to the modem files.
I REALLY appreciate the help and opinions so far guys.
I'm hoping I've laid out everything I'm doing in a clear manner so you can follow along with what I'm doing.
After reading some of the replies, I think that I've done exactly what you all are saying, which is flashing that VRBMF1 kernel.
Unfortunately, the camera is still not working. Any suggestions?

MF1 is a modem not a kernel.
And you have two choices
1: stable 10.1.0 with MB1
2: latest nightlies with MF1
Other combinations won't work. If you have any more questions quote me in your post and I'll get an email notification.
Thanks
It worked! That MB1 modem flash got the camera working properly. Hopefully nothing else stopped working, but if it did, I'll be back here with the quickness haha.
Thank you guys all so much, I'm glad I decided to try and figure this out on this messageboard, you guys were most helpful!

My experience
I find that keeping all three of the modem AIO packages (MB1, MD3, MF1) in a folder on the phone or external sdcard can be helpful when switching ROMs to ensure you can flash whichever one works best. Also, sometimes installing the wrong gapps package can break certain things like the camera which cause them to crash or other normal functions of your phone. And so, I also keep my roms in their own folders with the appropriate gapps version for that particular ROM. You can check to see which versions of each you have in 'Settings > About Phone" If you already knew all of this I apologize. Just thought it could be helpful.
How do I fix it?
Baseband Vrlg1
Kernel 3.4.45 cm
I believe it was firmware related, but that was do to the latest firmware. I don't think that is the issue though. Have you tried flashing a different kernal?

Yup, needs MF1. I just flashed over 3 days ago from tw rooms that didn't need it.
Installed mf1..no luck. Do I need to wipe? I'm pretty sure worked when I first installed cm
camera not working also
Hey I had mf1, installed cm nightly 6/30. At first my camera worked no problem...but now it doesn't work at all. I'm considering updating a newer nightly hoping it may fix the problem.

This sounds identical
Any luck finding a fix?
I've been having issues with all sound dropping out on various ROMs and I don't recall this happening on any pre-3.4 kernel based ROMs.
All the download links in the threads for 4.2.2 ROMs are now dead so I was wondering if anyone has an old file kicking around? Or know where I could find one? My hard drive died a while back and it seems everything since then has been 3.4 based so I no longer have any 3.0 ROMs on my computer that I can try myself.
Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Haha, yeah, I know. But when your phone has no sound whatsoever, it ceases to be useful. Can't remember that happenign to me on 3.0 so I figured I'd check it out.
Also, not too sure what the big deal is with 3.4. When it first came out, there was the wake lag, then that was fixed but bootloops became an issue. The 3.0 ROMs were more reliable for me in general, just not as up to date.
EDIT: Your first post ever was to tell me that? Haha

No sound issues so far but I keep getting random soft reboots and apps constantly closing (no error or pop up), Cleared caches in recovery. Anything special I'm supposed to do after flashing this? I'm so close to having a working phone again, this ROM seems likes my best bet...but now it's giving me other issues.
Thank you for your time.
Try changing skin on the phone and then change it back also for soft reboots what works for me is uninstallin kernel Turner and reinstalling and applying settings again

OK, been busy all weekend so here's my findings:
I was able to get Liquid Smooth working using the Bubba Vn5 kernel. That was the first step.
Then I had to give it time and see if my audio dropped - and it did. So the 3.4 kernel doesn't seem to be the issue.
So I ran a logcat and while not completely versed in what to look for, I did find some audio errors relating to the audiopolicy manager, and tone generator and soundpool. Did a bit of searching and seems it could have to do with my firmware, which, of course, was also switched when I changed to the 3.4 kernel. I'm going to try reflashing 2.15 and maybe upgrade to 2.16 if that doesn't work. If neither work, I'll have to see about downgrading, but since I don't have a lower flashable zip, I'll have to mess around with an RUU so hopefully it doesn't come to that.
Thanks to everyone. At the very least, you're helping me eliminate possible causes.

If I can get my sound back I'll probably be sticking with a 3.0 based rom as at the very least I'm not constantly plagued by bootloops so I'll gladly take your copy of blackbean if you don't mind. Just another option for me to flash
p.s: my logcat should be attached. If anyone has experience with reading them, it would be greatly appreciated if you could take a look and see if anything stands out. Thanks again to everybody.
Ok, so I managed to extract the ruu using a script and flashed the rom.zip via fastboot. I am now on hboot 1.13, running LS v2.4 with bubba vn5 (3.0 kernel) and am still without sound. Logcat shows the same errors as the one I posted above (not sure exactly what they mean, but they are audio related from what I can tell.
Since I have ruled out everything I can think of on the software side, could this possible be a hardware issue?

Thanks, based on my searches, it seemed like every older ROM had dead links.
No drivers or sound hardware, huh? So something isn't right, haha. I've had sound at points so I assume there must be something up with how the software interacts with the hardware or my hardware isn't stable and works only from time to time.
Not what I wanted to hear but what can ya do? I've posted this in the Q and A forum as well, see if I can get some more info. Thanks though.

Got it downloaded
I've tried the newer, 4.2.2 Sense ROMs and while not entirely sure (I wasn't really looking for the sound issue at the time) I recall it happening on them, too.
But I'm going to try the old ViperOneS 4.1.2 ROM because I know that I had no issues at all back when I was using that. If it's still present, I'm going to assume it's a hardware fault and I'll have to try and unroot, s-on, go back to stock, achange my CID and all that crap and see if I can't get it replaced.
Thanks for your help.
