Anyone else noticing the the backlight on the buttons not turning off? Disabling backlight in Settings has no effect.

kernel command line needs lge.rev=10
the backlight driver isn't reading the board rev correctly.

Jasamour, could you post links to all of those components? I'd like to give that a shot, and I'm having trouble chasing down all of the pieces.

Never mind, I'm a n00b. Look in the first post at the mediafire link...

...nope. That hasn't happened with me. Backlighting for the buttons works just fine for me.

Oh!! Here's a little something for folks to chew on: it seems that the music player app Rocket Player may not like ICS and above. I've had my Opti S go into sleep mode AND NOT WAKE UP (thus forcing a battery pull) pretty often with the Oxygen (haven't tried it with basic CM9), CM10, The JBC (back when it was 4.2, I never tried the 4.3 version because THIS BEAST was already underway by the time I found out about it, lol), SlimBean, & BeanWhiz roms...and it's happened again with this one, though not nearly as often as with the aforementioned ones.

Dunno about Rocket Player, but PowerAmp works like a charm on every Rom you just listed.

Shinkenred · Jan 18, 2014

PowerAmp? Never heard of it...gonna have to try it...

It was the first music player with a graphic equalizer. I bought it when Gingerbread came out because I'm a musician and audiophile, and I've never been satisfied with stock music players. It really is quite good, it's kept me happy for almost three years now, and that's no mean feat!

VM670 on 4.4.2? Yes, indeed.

I see it has tag editing, nice!

brotherswing · Jan 19, 2014

Yes indeed, and more relevant to this thread, it works brilliantly on the OS2SD build! In fact, I've never found a Rom it didn't work with and I'm a certified Crackflasher.

VM670 on 4.4.2? Yes, indeed.

I uploaded a new build:
cm-11-20140116-thunderc-skinbark.zip (link in OP)
Not much new, incorporates wifi password, play store app installation and button backlight fixes, along with small upstream fixes. This one will install on Sprint phones without modification. Hacker's keyboard is the default because it's 1/2 the size of AOSP keyboard and I like it better. AOSP keyboard is in the /extras folder inside the zip along with other apps and ringtones. Flash the rom, flash gapps, reboot. Set things up and reboot a couple more times to help things settle in. There may be a slight performance improvement due to optimization using GOptimize. I highly recommend this tool for stripping out unneeded languages, libraries and debugging info as well as optimizing graphics files in apk files. The reason the rom is dated 3 days ago is because I've been experimenting with the settings on this script (it's a slow process). The settings I ended up using for system apps were
-m2 -zo -c -j75 -e- -a0 -d5 -b19 -l5
I ran it on all apps in /system/app and /system/priv-app as well as framework-res.apk. You have to add the /frameworks folder to the PlaceApksHere folder for it to work properly on system apps.

I just flashed the latest build..Booted up nicely...But i have NO ENGLISH language option...Did i go wrong somewhere?

brotherswing · Jan 20, 2014

Just need to tell the Rom this:
Je ne parle pas Francais, je parle Englais! Je ne sais pas!

Just ignore the Azerbaijani login option, click Next. It has something to do with stripping out unneeded languages, I guess that and Chinese refuse to be stripped!

brotherswing · Jan 21, 2014

I attempted to download the newest build, but encountered this...

VM670 on 4.4.2? Yes, indeed.

Ah, I should have known. Thanks, I'll download it later when my toddler is asleep. He has the terrible two's something fierce and using a pc in front of him isn't an option. Makes playing Rift almost impossible!

//edit: reason, duh
If you're using the os2sd rom from the other thread...
//end duh
yes, unfortunately.
it might be possible to do it with either a script (using fdisk to repartition, and newfs_msdos/mke2fs to format the partitions) in recovery. needs to be specific for different card sizes. somebody may make one now that it's more out there as an idea.
That would definitely require backing up your card, because it'd wipe the whole thing clean to repartition it in recovery, I don't think you could easily resize the vfat without just wiping it out and starting over.

The regular rom works fine without any sd-ext partitions.
