CM7 on Optimus V

[icemank121]

Lets try to keep all CM7 discussion related to the Optimus V in this thread, so its all in one place, and not clogging up the Optimus S threads, zefie has enough to fix without problems not even related to his phone being mixed in.

Heres the list of current V specific issues:
1) Carrier text incorrect
2) MMS (For more info: http://forum.androidcentral.com/optimus-v/61696-virgin-mobile-mms-issues-thread.html)
3) Build.prop needs updated for VM to display model and other things correctly
4) Reversed Home and Menu buttons

If people are interested, until CM7 stabilizes for the S and we start making V specific builds, I can make an update.zip that will change the reversed buttons, carrier text, build.prop, etc.

just fork my repos and update what you need to, it should auto sync my changes since i dont need to update the files in question

then you can build your own nightlys

If no one else decides to do it, I will. I'm not very familiar with github and such, but i'll figure it out if no one else takes charge.

I'd really appreciate it if someone capable would be willing. Coming from a nexus one, I miss being a flashaholic
I'm no programmer though :/

i just got finished installing it all and getting it up and running, swype open beta works fine with it (have to work around the fastboot bug on reboot though by swapping input methods)

 

[icemank121]

I was able to fork zefie's source and create a VM version with the correct carrier text, etc. Works great, carrier shows VM now, correct key mapping, etc. I'm gonna test it tonight, as long as no problems arise ill post it tomorrow. Working good so far though! MMS is still a work in progess, and may never be fixed, but hopefully we will be able to eventually. Thanks to zefie for all his hard work, I'm just making minor changes for our phones.

Thats awesome man! MMS is pretty important, but I think many of us can do without. There is always the option of using Gmail for sending pictures. Cant wait to try it out, if it passes your approval.

awesome! also can you check to see if when you play music it starts lound and then gets quiet via the phones speaker? also some apps have the problem as well. i think its related to the DPSM manager if its on the S as well then it will be fixed its just a matter of time

 

[icemank121]

Zefie's newest code fixes the audio normalization so my build and his next build will fix this I believe.

Sounds like it's coming along...

I am currently on zef's 18th nightly and loving it, so the vm version is bound to be better for my phone.

Will be nice to have an audio fix as well.. keep up the good work.

Count me in, compadre

I'm gonna hold off on release since there is someone at xda making a V version, his is pretty good, he has sending mms working, and hes working to rip the Virgin code from 2.2 and add it to fix receiving, grab it at [ROM] aospCMod for the LG Optimus V | CM7 | AOSP 2.3.2 (Gingerbread) [02/21/2011] - xda-developers

 

[Gutterball]

As soon as the mms incoming is working? I'm on board! I tried the optimus s version and its bad ass! Just no mms. Really what does it matter cause I cant recieve mms on stock rom right now either! LOL

Same here, when MMS is working, I will switch over.

I installed this yesterday and have been playing around with it all day. I really like the CM7 mod. It would seem as though everything is working I can send and recieve mms. The gps seems to be working. I very rarely use bluetooth so I havent checked it.

It is lots faster and scores a 1661 on Antutu benchmark. Only issue is overclocking above 800 causes a crash.So I run (when needed) at 787.

Have more available Memory as well 421 mb

Battery Life has doubled over 2.2.

SO I like the mod I have the 2.3 keyboard and theme installed. Looks and feels like 2.3 full.

Lots of custom settings available. Very functional and user friendly even for a noob like me.

Thanks to all the devs!

Why exactly did you bring this back from the grave? AospCM7 has been abandoned. You really should try one of the IHO roms.

Yeah, the IHO ROM's such as the BACKSide and BobzHome, everything is working now. You can get those and other IHO ROMs here.

When flashing any custom gingerbread rom you need to install gapp.zip found at the link on the IHO page.
