[Q] Poor phone call quality on LG G2X [P999][ROM][CM10] ParanoidAndroid v2.17 - T-Mobile LG G2x

I have just updated my LG G2X with ParanoidAndroid v2.17. When I make a phone call, the sound quality is crackly and muffled. Did I miss a setting?
I also have gapps loaded as well (and I did check that it was the correct version)
Thanks for any help!

Yup, probably need the new baseband fix zip file. Flash it in CWM and phone quality should be back to normal.

my god
i go there, didn't find out anything with this problem.
This is a known issue.
Problem is with the baseband. It affects all known ROMs. If you want to make phone calls, you'll have to revert back to the older baseband, or go with stock 2.3.4 that was pushed.
nobody can fix that? may be just need cm or miui find out fix.

To those with the new baseband and with custom ROMs, have you tried to update your RIL using getRIL? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sibbor.getril&feature=nav_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDNd

Even with matching RIL/Baseband it still does the same thing on a custom ROM...verified that yesterday when I manually pushed the RIL to my phone...after submitting the RIL to Rob so he can update his app...

[Q] Stock Camera App

When I playback video that I had recorded, it displays very small and only gives an option to stretch the playback extremely to fill the screen. I've noticed that the camera app is not the same pretty one that I am seeing on youtube.
Here a pic of my G2x camera.
View attachment 1038022
I'm running 2.3.3
I have done a factory reset and no change
I have tried recording at all resolutions and no change
How can I fix this?
Did you recently update the phone, or did this just happen out of no where?
I bought it used and didn't update anything. I remember the camera looking like this when I got it before I did a factory reset.
Have you tried downloading different camera apps from the market to test?
If still nothing works then you probably have to replace the camera. It isn't hard to do though.

It should work with 2.3.3 as well.
Make a backup in CWM just in case, then flash the zip.

Usually, 90% of all fixes require you to flash something... Google how to "flash a zip through clockwork."

No worries, at this point I'm not too sure whether you're rooted your device or not.
If not, google rooting Android and decide if you wanna carry on that way. Same applies for flashing CWM/mods/ROMs, as buru stated as well, google it and decide whether it is for you or not.
As for CWM recovery, check this thread:

[How To] Fix popping/clicking on new/old baseband

How to Fix Calling on Any Baseband and Any ROM​
- For a ROM that doesn't support the new baseband (March 2012), flash this: http://owain.hopto.org/T-Mobile LG G2x (p999)/Domination/new_baseband.zip (Alternate link: http://d-h.st/OkL) Thank you owain94
- Those on the old (March 2011, July 2011) baseband, and want to update: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1674901 Thank you Eagl3007
- For a ROM that only supports the new one (but you're on the old one), flash this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1135176&d=1339901539 (Alternate link: http://d-h.st/UlN) Thank you Volk
Note:
This is not my work, I put special thanks to all in this. This is just for those who have the problem and keep asking for a solution.
Caution: Whenever flashing a ROM (after any ROM flash), you must always flash the fix accordingly right after.
Bluetooth calling on the new baseband does not work unless on a stock (2.3.4) ROM.
This does NOT replace your current baseband. It only fixes the problems with calling, keeping your current baseband!
First bump, do a similar for Ppl on old base band and they flash a incompatible ROM.

If you arent getting a popping/clicking noise then you havent did anything wrong, certain factors for what your problem is, could be in call volume is low, bad reception, or bad reception on the other persons end, but there's also other factors I'm not entirely sure.
Yes now it looks much better!

Incorrect.
If you are on the March 2012 baseband, BT CALL AUDIO does NOT work. Media audio does. This applies to ANY ROM that's not stock LG 2.3.4. There is the option to run a "modded" stock ROM such as BuRom & kewes (sp?) rooted, modded stock 2.3.4. Pair up with faux's GB specfic kernel and it's not terribly bad
You can also attempt to downgrade to an older baseband via kdz method.
As for G2Xer's question, I have not used it, I'll take a look at it, but I think it's more of a driver issue or something like that causing the problem.

What's up Jackyl. Thanks for your reply. I came up on this app thinking that it would reroute call audio into media audio. I'm going to try and downgrade my baseband soon per neowaves directions on the Hellfire forums. Just waiting for my sis to return my USB cable lol?

When you downgrade successfully post a link to the method you used. I am tired of waiting for this to be fixed.. I am running Cm7 nightly .. and Cm10 seems a dream - most devs have moved on now.. so I should at least get the best working phone I can

Update: I emailed the developer but he said there's no way to reroute the Bluetooth call into the media. He's tried but said he and others have hit a couple blocks.
Additionally, I tried again to downgrade with no avail. For some reason my XP machine does not recognize my G2x when in SW mode. I know were all awaiting for CM10 BUT Im crossing fingers that our great dapharoah will take a look at fixing Bluetooth (no he never stated anything im just assuming since he's working on cm7 still).

Let's try comparing logcats from a g2x with v21y baseband and stock gingerbread connecting to a Bluetooth device and making a call, to a cm7 device doing the same thing. We should be able to find some sort of discrepancy correlation in the logs if we look hard enough.

I am on 21y, CM7 weekly, but can flash and go stock in 5 min to logcat both.

I don't think it will get fixed though.
The story I've always been told is LG needed to release something, maybe code, and it's something they didn't have to under open source.
Something like that.
Sent from...I can't tell you, the Nazi XDA Moderators will shut it down.
lol i have been following googles code site pertaining to this problem and it seems like even the CM team has ignored it since cm7 came out right after the v21y baseband release by LG that "fixed gps signal"....well it also broke radio usage until owain92 fixed it. but still nobody has solved the cell over bluetooth issue. media plays just fine, just not phone calls. im hoping that by mazout360 and king-nai compiling themselves and incorporating hard fixes into their rom, that they will not overlook the bluetooth issue. i have a feeling that their rom wil be phenomonal when its finished.

[Q] hellfire sandwich rom

Hello,I searched all forums but cant find a answer to my issues,hopefully someone can help.
I flashed hellfire sandwich rom to my g2x Now my issues are
picture messaging dont work-I can send regular texts but not with pics nor can I receive them
I get process at android ,com has stopped and I click ok bit it keeps coming back until I reboot
the second one is my battery bar indicates a full charge but its been on for about 6 hours now-I did install battery recalibrate but it still does it
third is that my phone number says unknown and my voicemail number is also not known I have a feeling this is related to my mms erros too.
Thats about all please help.I did have cyanogenmod 7.1 installed before and was having the messaging issue then too.I did switch to another version of hellfire after that and everything was working great except my battery indicator had ? mark in it and the phone shut down and had a hard time rebooting.I used g2x scrubber before I installed the hellsandwich rom and followed directions to the t so I dunno whats wrong
Thanksfor any help,Steve
When you go into settings/about phone what baseband shows up?
m6600a-scautnz-2.0.972ot 1 [may 21 2012 16:00:00} TRULGE_08.09.02R_MDM
Were you originally on 2.3.4? I don't know if it will help or not but if so try flashing the new baseband fix zip file. Its a sticky I believe in the g2x general section. I know its meant to fix problems with calls but it couldn't hurt I guess.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda app-developers app
yes I was on 2.3.4 I will give it a shot and let you know how it works out.
Thanks,Steve
No problem. I double checked, its stickied in the general section under “how to fix popping in calls" just download it to SD card and flash in cwm and reboot. Hope it helps!
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda app-developers app
well it was worth a try but no go,any other suggestions?
I honestly have no idea. I'm currently running an ICS rom (eaglesblood) and have none of those issues. However my voice mail had the same "no voice mail number" error. I'm assuming you're on t-mobile...if so, just put this number in for your voice mail and it will work properly:
+18056377243 This will definitely fix your voice mail...as for your SMS messages...hopefully justjackyl comes in here and can give you some better information
I think you should try reflashing your rom. Or try a different one. You have a lot of weird issues. When you go from gb to ics or vice versa are you wiping /system?
Good call twitch. Make sure you wipe /system under mounts and storage in CWM!

phone randomly shuts down on me getril still says ril/baseband dont match i tried switching ril's from the drop down list but nothing changes.
under baseband in getril it say recommended march baseband. Any suggestions?
Whats the model number on the label?
We are not quite sure how you have a may baseband, the P999 basebands carry June and March months. I believe June 15 2011 and the last was March 11 2012.
I keep wondering if your not using the Wind G2x model which is an O2x P990 branded as G2x or even using a P990 in general, which this than would be incorrect ROM and could definitely cause all these issues.
In you screenshot it will say P999 because the ROM build states that, not the phone.
Check your model number sticker please.
