I tried it but it just force closed. Maybe there is a lib or something that needs to be used. I am actually pretty sure of that. Link to me the ROM you got the Cam from.

Haha, I upgraded to 1.2 and when I pressed the power button it did the TV-going-off look and I freaked out for a sec b/c my phone had never done that (hopefully that IS normal). Looks very cool. Thanks for all the hard work!

I'm trying to download version 2.0 now, but your website keeps telling me that I have to slow down and wait 37 seconds before I can download. I can't wait!!!!

EDIT: Nevermind, I got through. I must have waited long enough!

I've attached a screenshot of what I see most of the time that I click "download." I ended up getting it and am flashing now, so no worries.

That is strange. I have never seen that. I will look into it. Did it happen the first time you tried? I wonder if its seeing you and another user as the Same IP? Weird! Can you PM me your IP address so I can examine the logs? I think I see your IP because its the only one with multiple attempts, lol.

Yeah, it happened the first time I attempted to download. Then it happened the second and third time, after I waited what I thought was an appropriate amount of time. Once I was successfully able to download, though, I haven't been able to reproduce it again unless I click download, click cancel on the file download prompt, and then click "download" again right away. That's what I had to do to get the screenshot. My IP address is XXX.X.147.17. That's probably enough to identify me.

I had that happen as well, I think it registered as a double click when I hit download. (This was back when I downloaded 1.2)

I have gROM 1.2 Can I just wipe cache/dalvik and keep my data to update to 2.0?

I wonder why it registered as a double click? Oh well. I am going to see if there is an option to disable that.

From CM7.... Ummm... I dont know for sure. I would believe you could but is that version of OS made for VD baseband? I am not sure

From 1.2... Yeah, I would believe you can without and issue. I did not make any changes that should affect an incremental upgrade.

I also made the ROM forcibly wipe cache (which contains dalvik) so you dont need to worry about wiping that before you flash. I am hoping that will cut back on upgrade issues that people see. Sometimes people forget to wipe, lol


BTW: This thing hums right along! I was quite impressed with it. Drew did an AWSOME job with this kernel! I think you will enjoy

Ok, I just looked at the CM7 build you are on. You would have to upgrade to the latest radio to use this ROM. That would mean you will eventually loos everything during the update / re-root process.

yes, CM7 is on ZVD radio. gROM is on ZVH. Follow the ZVH rooting thread instructions and then you can flash gROM.

I did not do a full wipe and it seems to be fine. Of course, I manually wiped cache and dalvik cache, not knowing that the ROM now automatically does that for you. Nice touch. I also like the fancy welcome message in recovery after flashing.

I agree, this definitely seems to be snappy!

Re: [ROM] - gROM 2.0 - 10/5 - GB 2.3.3 - ROM Updater and O/C'ed!

I'm on the edge about rooting and putting this rom. Really like the progress of this rom, and would like to see the problems I'm getting are fixed.

Can anyone do this simple test for me.

Enable GPS, start Maps, get your position, press the lock screen button up on top to lock the screen, press again and unlock, move around the map. Did the map just came out empty?, is it working properly?

Currently using stock ZVC I have the problem that Google Maps will crash if I lock the screen while the GPS is on. Every single time. Navigation will not crash but will stop displaying the map when I press the Home button. This started happening after some maps update months ago.

Thanks in advance.

Yea, I figured the wiping issue would be just a bonus for those that forget, lol I'm not advertising it as a "feature" but its there and will remain there from now on. Just a good back up for forget people.

You know the updater script (the message you see) is something I have always done on my Evo 3D ROMS but for some reason... I just forgot to do it on the Optimus! lol

And yes, its quite a bit faster than the prior builds. That and the ROM Updater app was why I decided to go with V2.0. I felt there were major upgrades to the ROM.

Now later on this week (or next) I will start playing around with the ext4 stuff and try to get the internal storage up to the 1GIG mark. Then I will attack the pulldown power menu. That will be by far the most challenging.

I just tried it and it worked exactly like it should. As soon as I unlocked and maps popped back up it was ready to go with no hiccups. I tried it multiple times and it worked as it should each time.

Love the new update Only issue I am having is when I go to put the power control on my screen everything comes up blank. Is this normal or do I have to do something else to get it working? Thanks for the help and the great Rom.

I was able to reproduce it by logging out and trying to download as a guest. There was a guest limit of one download every 60 seconds. Some sort of DDoS / flood control. I think I fixed it... I hammered it really fast and it was good. Let me know!
