Contacts you can export to your SD card (as a vcf file) and import in the new ROM, for messages i use "SMS backup and restore" app which is really fast and simple (there's a similar app for call logs too from the same developer on the play store if you need it), and for apps, Titanium backup...

The G2x didnt get ICS update from T-mobile. Only the LG Optimus 2x got it. @boogeyman, just make a full wipe in recovery (wipe data, format /system) and flash the ROM. No gapps needed for it :)

I used this one to start off months ago. Dont forget to use the ics branch and use your own device trees ;)

The place from where you got that info may have meant 12.04 or newer, so like darkstar, I'd suggest 12.10 too. Anyway, give unetbootin a shot tomorrow, hope that works :)

Please let us know the following: 1. which version of Ubuntu did you try to install (12.04 or 12.10) 2. Where did you download it from (links to sources, at least 1-2 of them) 3. Which version did you download: desktop version or alternate version 4. Have you tried a different USB creator...

Ah, found out the misunderstanding mate. You were talking about the Ubuntu repo, and I was talking about the android repo. Two totally different things, the android repo has to be manually and projects have to be fetched before building, the whole thing takes around 30gb itself. No wonder you...

I never listed Wubi as what he should be trying first, it is always a last resort if nothing else works. About the automounting, I have stated the obvious, and it seems like some people don't like it when that's done. And yes, you can automount partitions by editing the fstab file. About the...

Its better to keep the linux OS and repo in the same partition. Makes executing terminal commands a lot easier. Plus, OS partition gets auto mounted, while others dont, so you would have to mount them each time you boot the OS (unless you have some workaround). So its better to have the...

Hello everyone! Its been quite a while since I posted on this forum :) I just wanted to let you guys know that in the past 3 months, I've done a lot of work (development), building ROMs, kernels, and porting some ROMs too. It has been a fascinating journey, this, in Android, and this phone has...

Great to see you joining the development scene too. Remember me from xda (rugglez) ;) ? First off, here's what I suggest: Avoid installing it on a virtual machine at all costs! This coming from a ROM/kernel developer with months of experience, knowing how resource hungry building a ROM/kernel...

Ok, meanwhile, the call bug on CM10 and MIUI has been fixed on with the new bootloader and its fully stable now.

My MIUI ROM is now stable :) Oh, and ICS release is a year too late, but its here at least. Not that I'm gonna downgrade from JB to ICS ;)

Presenting my first custom ROM :) MIUI v4 JB 2.11.30 Do try it out :) Enjoy!

Yes, the auto sync of date and time has always been a problem for SU660 base bands. There was a nitz fix available for cm7 made by pastime1971, you could search for a similar one or try that out, it's link is there in temasek's cm7 thread(don't know if it would on other roms). Date syncs fine...

If you haven't tried it already, try the 420bb, if that doesn't work, try the 30c bb they extracted from the ics leak (search around, you should get the link). Never change ril on cm10 or stock ics roms. Always keep the default one.
