I had an idea and it seems to be working (although it scares me a little) - in settings, I doublechecked to be sure that data was turned on (which it is) and then noticed that the next option is Data Roaming - connect to data services when roaming. Which made me think hey, the Roaming indicator is on (even though I'm not roaming, or shouldn't be) so what if I check that box. It gave me a scary "this may cost you big bucks" message, but ever since then, even with wifi explicitly off, I am getting my email on the phone and can access the internet, etc.

So - scary fix, I guess. As long as I don't go anywhere that would REALLY be roaming, but I'll never know...

I'll need to take that into account in the code.

Does anyone else have a different baseband string? You can just look in the about phone menu to check.

Really? Not the first time I have purchased a "weird" anything........... In the about phone it says LG-VS660 for Model Number however.

It is checked in my phone also. Has been for the last month and a half or however long I have been flashed to this. One billing cycle and it didn't register anything. If you read back, I think that is the work around to get data however.

I was joking. It's different than the os and ov that's all. It looks closer to the ot and p500.

This is the fix in CM7 also, had it like that for a long time now. There are no roaming charges ever. Most plans (voice and data) no longer have roaming charges at all anyway .

Yes. I have the same baseband as jgramkow.

**JimJ2mz** · 08-22-2012, 03:58 PM

My baseband number is exactly the same as jgramkow's.

This is on Lg Vortex.
I'll try the new rom once I get home.

**JimJ2mz** · 08-22-2012, 05:55 PM

I've started using AOKP. I've gotta say. It's really good!
But customizations and the additional Nova Launcher discourages me; strange.
I don't exactly like the Nova, and therefore I use the stock launcher. Unfortunately, the stock launcher does not have customization settings. And if I want more settings for the Nova, I have to buy the Prime version.

Guess I'm coming back to CM9.

BTW, is there a difference between the gapps(small).zip and gapps .zip that was just uploaded?

**tdm** · 08-22-2012, 07:07 PM

Use the small gapps. The large one won't fit. The only difference is that face unlock is removed, I believe. And we can't use it anyway.

**JimJ2mz** · 08-22-2012, 07:36 PM

And what does the Swagger option do? LOL
I also don't see a music app for AOKP.
In the apps managment, I do see MusicFX and...Unicorn Porn? O_O;

Rumor is that swagger does nothing, but I haven't actually verified in the code.

AOKP doesn't ship with a music app, you need to download one from the market. Or, if Apollo floats your boat, you could take Apollo.apk from the CM9 ROM and sideload it.

I believe UnicornPorn.apk is wallpapers (not naughty, just an amusing package name). But again, I haven't checked.

**Zhara** · 08-23-2012, 03:28 AM

Yeah, unicorn porn is a live wallpaper. Pinkish-purple with floating unicorns to be exact.

I hate to be noobish, but where is everybody getting AOKP for the Vortex? I'm googling and googling it and not finding it.

Also, will this build "Quattriumus" ever be updated?

Thanks!

**tdm** · 08-25-2012, 03:02 PM

getquattrimus.com

Yes it will get more updates, be patient. I have other phones...

Try this:

just get the most recent.

tdm, were there any changes between beta2 and the beta3pre that didn't install besides trying to make the ROM flashable on every device with 1 zip?

That was pretty much the only significant change so far.

**rockcell** · 08-29-2012, 10:32 AM

Is there a way that we can get a build that will let us use an app like Link2SD? I'm up against the limit of the Internal Storage.

**RidDleZ** · 08-29-2012, 11:01 AM

This ROM already has a script for this. It works automagically, but you need to have an SDEXT partition.

I have an SDext partition set up, and it's worked well. But, the built in script doesn't move anything in the /data/data folder (at least that I can tell). Now, this may not be the most significant source of memory use, but it adds up to close to 100 MB for the apps I use (by a rough estimate). Since apps like Link2SD can handle moving these files automatically, I thought it would be easier to disable the built in script than to rewrite it to handle more functions.

I had an issue about one week ago where several apps wouldn't update, as it said I didn't have enough memory or resources or something. Sorry, I can't remember the exact phrase for the error. I ended up doing a clean install of the AOKP rom. I saved everything with Titanium Backup, then rebooted to recovery, then wiped data/factory reset, cache, Dalvik-cache, SD:extpartition, and .android_secure. I then re-flashed the AOKP from 7-31. When I re-installed my apps with Titanium Backup, everything started working well. I must have done a dirty flash and it caused some problems. Hope this is helpful.

Depending on when you created the EXT partition it may not be moving the apps or all the apps data.. I experienced this, and had to do a fresh install as well. Is there an 'app' directory in the SDEXT directory?

It is not trivial to remove the built in script because it does both apps and dalvik. I should probably separate those functions.

Anyway, I'll think about what to do about this for beta3.

**blade2885** · 09-15-2012, 01:43 PM

Great Build

I have noticed with the VS660 if you turn on wifi the roaming indicator seems to disappear and the service indicator seems to function properly. Also I'm not sure if this qualifies as a "workaround" but if you turn on speakerphone it fixes the mic volume issues. I do seem to be having a problem getting barnacle to work though, whenever I start it it just says "starting" and I never get the message from SU to allow or deny it. - Barnacle working now that I enabled Roaming Data
