I have a LG Phoenix P505 and am on old baseband and had to use a old baseband fix to get my cell signal to work.

Re: [HOW TO]Perfect working CM7

I have been using this ROM for a while now and I must say I am impressed with it, aside from the fact that bluetooth sucks the life out of the battery IMHO its the best ROM out there.

Re: [HOW TO]Perfect working CM7

Are you both talking about the nightly in the first post or the newest nightly. I didn't create anything new and the battery life depends on kernels to, Battery should be about the same across all cm7 ROMs using my method. At least that's my experience.

Re: [HOW TO]Perfect working CM7

Thank you, thank you, and thank you!! I came across about upgrading to Gingerbread by a youtube video (Install Android 2.3.7 (Gingerbread) on LG Phoenix (P505) and LG Thrive - YouTube) and did it step by step like the video, knowing I was taking a chance on doing something that had been done back in December of 2011 (because you know, something that worked then, may not work now). And of course, I was right, got plagued by the stuck LG screen and the blackout screen, and no service. Then, with some googling... I found this. Haha. But thank you for this very helpful (and RECENT) post. I now have a working and updated LG Thrive. Very grateful

I can't speak for anyone else but I am using the following after going through the steps outlined.


Baseband LGP505AT-00-v20f-open-com-dec-22-2011+0
Kernel 2.6.35.10-perf+cm9 Arjen@lappy #1
Mod Version Cyanogenmod-7-20120819-NIGHTLY-p500
Build number GingerBread

I can't speak for anyone else but I know I am getting almost 2 days on a charge as long as I don't use bluetooth. The second I kick that on my battery is dead in a few hours. Aside from that I can leave data and wifi on just about all the time with no issues.

Re: [HOW TO]Perfect working CM7

So I'm not positive yet but it looks as though I may need to revert back to gb in order to get the full wi-fi tethering functionality that I need for work. Can anyone running this setup do me a huge favor and see if native tethering can be toggled on and off more than once without crashing the phone? I'm wondering if the issue I'm having is a bug in arjen's kernels or not. For greater clarification on what I'm talking about see my post here.

Re: [HOW TO]Perfect working CM7

So why exactly does the USB Mass Storage not work after doing this method?

Re: [HOW TO]Perfect working CM7

until there in a new kernel we wont have usb mass storage on gb. don't forget to grab the newest cm7 nightly.

i may look into fixing up a kernel though with everything working. my code knowledge is limited as is my spare time, but ill start looking into it.

i recommend airdroid for wireless file transfers until i can get usb mass storage working.

Re: [HOW TO]Perfect working CM7

I'm looking for a recommendation whether I should update my phone using this method. I've listed what I've got now below and I have USB mass storage, which is important to me. Can I update some parts and still keep the USB mass storage? Thanks for all the help!

LG Thrive p506
Android Version 2.3.7
Baseband Version V07u-000-000-MAR-23-2009
Kernel Version 2.6.32.9 Joban #8
Mod Version CyanogenMod-7.2.0-RC0-Thunderg-KANG
Build Number GRJ90

Re: [HOW TO]Perfect working CM7

I don't know of any way to get USB mass storage working, besides using an old-bb rom with just joban kernel like you're doing, or use an ics rom like Arjen's piccolo. But if you want something new this will let u install any p500 rom.

Re: [HOW TO]Perfect working CM7

If you want a ROM without the black screen bug then no USB mass storage is a down side u gotta deal with. I did.

Re: [HOW TO]Perfect working CM7

I have a LGP505 which was on Rashed's JB, working perfectly (apart from the known bugs) and I'm trying to move to CM7 nightly. However, I'm unable to get service even after using Old baseband fix. Any hints to what's happening?

I have again installed Rashed's JB and it's working fine.

Re: [HOW TO]Perfect working CM7

others have had issues with the new cm7. not sure if its been fixed or figured out, but the assumption is something has changed.

Re: [HOW TO]Perfect working CM7

Yes the p500 nightlies no longer work for p505 or p506. P505 doesn't get signal and P506 gets worse graphics glitch than the old color banding problem. The only solution is to find exactly which date it stopped working and use the build before that, or just use the stable 7.2.0 version that was released months ago. http://get.cm/get/2Kz

Re: [HOW TO]Perfect working CM7

I think this needs a bump for people still trying the old mmatt and kang roms.

Updated first post to have simple cm9 installation instructions and links.

Thanks for updating! I'm currently running Gingerbread installed with instructions from this thread on my Phoenix P505. I tried ICS successfully but it felt a bit slow when compared to GB and I missed the FM radio support. My current preference is to run the stable 'cm-7.2.0-p500.zip' as per the instructions, although I may change it again later!

I'm not clear what 'lgp505icskernel-19062012.zip' does beyond using Joban's 2.08?

 

[LifesGoodPhoenix]

Re: [HOW TO]Perfect working CM7

Joban is old base band. 2.6.32 kernel
Lgp505ics is new base band 2.6.35 kernel.

Re: [HOW TO]Perfect working CM7 + CM9

USB MASS STORAGE DOES NOT WORK FOR US ON CM7
Use airdroid or something similar.

Does the fact that USB Mass Storage is broken also mean that Android debugging over USB also does not work?
