.35 Gingerbread/ICS Kernal

[DiamondRyce]

Hey when I used raenye's kernal for my LG Phoenix (P505) that is on the Old BaseBand. For some reason I get the wifi to work but I cannot get the Data to work

@DiamondRyce : does voice/text work? did you set up APN?

Yes the voice and text work. But how do you go about setting the APN as I am not sure what to do.

Yup 100% it is you APN Settings, Same thing happened to me when i first flashed a new rom and it took me a while to figure out what i had to do

In Ginger Bread
Setting --> Wireless & Networks --> Mobile Networks --> Access Point Names
Now you either select your or make a new APN and put in your providers info

In ICS
Settings --> More --> Mobile Networks --> APN
I think this is where it is in ICS 4.0.3 for P505

Good Luck

I'm pretty sure APN settings aren't working on ice cream sandwich yet. I've tried

The P505 stock kernel works on P506 too. Hopefully, Drew's kernel will supersede all of these

where can i find a .zip of the stock p505 kernel?

Good news for you turkeys:

I'm about to upload the stock LG P505 (Phoenix) source to my BitBucket.org repository and begin the patching process.

UPDATE: The official repository for the LGP505 (Phoenix) kernel source + my modifications is on BitBucket.org. If you can't see any files, it's because it's not finished uploading yet. I will be working for about an hour and a half tonight patching the kernel, and you all will be able to track what I'm doing using the aforementioned BitBucket repository link.

k, this is amazing, but do u have to be on nbb or anything when u flash this, or can you just flash a nbb .35 rom on a obb phone, and then flash this? srry im a noob when it comes to android

OK, until someone compiles a well-behaved kernel and provides source, here's a simple wifi-enabled solution I came up with several days ago.

Rules:
1. Don't PM me with personal help requests or bug reports. This is simply a compilation of LG P505 stock gingerbread kernel and aspee's baseband patch on XDA. I claim no credit beyond putting it together and online.
2. Don't mirror this file. I want to keep track of the number of downloads.
3. Don't publish a different thread, here or elsewhere, linking to the file directly; link to this post instead.

The consequence of of failing to meet rules above would be that I cease sharing my findings with the community. Since most of you used my rooting method, you probably value my contribution and don't want this to happen.

Instructions:
1. Be on old baseband (= don't upgrade to official gingerbread via KDZ flashing).
2. Download P505 kernel and old baseband patch to your SD card.
3. Boot to recovery.
4. Install a gingerbread custom rom.
5. Install the patch.
6. Reboot.

I tested CM7 nightly, blackbird and oxygen.
3G, wifi, gps, camera worked out of box; didn't test UMTS data.
Oxygen had the blackscreen bug, but the other two didn't have it.

Right Here

So as best I can tell, this is the current state of things.

OLD BASEBAND ---ie you did NOT update to the official LG released Gingerbread update

Thrive (506): You can use Jobans .35 kernel (which is not posted online anymore, but can be downloaded from other users) and Aspee patch. With those two you can use any .35/NBB based ROM. Phone/Data work, but wifi does not.

Phoenix (505): You can use Raenye's combined kernel. You can use any .35/NBB based ROM. Everything works.

NEW BASEBAND --ie you updated to the official LG released Gingerbread update.

Thrive: DO NOT try and use the Phoenix (505) kdz. It appears to be causing massive problems. Use the above methods if you want to go to .35/NBB

Phoenix: Once updated, people can switch to a //35/NBB based ROM but cannot get data or wifi.

Does that sound about right?

I tried Raenye's combined kernel with my lg thrive p506 and wifi works, but i'm not getting data to work. put in my apn settings and data was a no go.

Edit: using the funny sim version of the ROM solves my issue.

try the funny sim fix: xda-developers - View Single Post - [UNOFFICIAL][DEV/GEEKS-ONLY] Cyanogenmod 9 (Android 4.0.3)[BETA4]

 

[Deathglobe]

So you have the CM9 working flawlessly on your thrive with data and wifi?

yes, i used lupohirp's rom with raenye's kernel and old bb patch. if data doesn't work for you with the ordinary rom, use the funny sim version.

lupohirp's rom: [UNOFFICIAL][DEV/GEEKS-ONLY] Cyanogenmod 9 (Android 4.0.3)[BETA4] - xda-developers

raenye's kernel and old bb patch: p505_stock_gb_kernel_old_baseband.cwm.zip - File Shared from Box - Free Online File Storage

Natural blue what is the funny sim version for?

With this rom, version 4.0.3 of android, we can play FLAC files right?

UPDATE : Answered my own question. It can indeed.

So even if I use raenyes kernel and an ics ROM, I can't get anything still?

Also, is there a newer, preferable cwm that you guys are using? I'm still on 3.1.0.0 for the thrive.
Which (stable) nightly do you guys use?

it's for those who aren't getting data even though their apn is set.

Well, Happy to report that 3g/data works great on my Phoenix that is running gingerbread on beta4 of the CM9 (funny sim version). All we need now is a kernel that fixes wifi and upgraded phoenix users could be running ICS!

 

[WillisLGThrive]

On the p506 (thrive), it looks like the kernel is providing us with 256bit colors??
Everything seems washed out, colors are visibly washed out in something like the settings menu (you can see color layering).

Using lupohirp's rom raenye's kernel and old bb patch.

Went to youtube (via browser / (test rom) no apps, no appstore etc.,) and a simple video staggered all over the place.

But it works and so does FLAC.
