Just do a full nandroid backup with ROM Manager... It will save everything and you can revert right back to where you were... Restore it after playing with ROMS
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheStick13:
I use Titanium Backup, and it will back up your Sense homescreen settings (widget/icon layouts and such) under "[WALLPAPER/SETTINGS] Settings 2.2.1." TB is an EXTREMELY helpful app, especially if you plan on doing a lot of flashing. It will let you easily backup and restore all apps, app data, messages, settings, and all of that other fun stuff. Definitely worth the $5 for Pro.

Hello guys, I tried to follow a thread here about sysctl on my x10.

Installed the app but when I tried to launch sysctl it always force closes, tried setting up the configuration for sysctl using droid overclock but when I save changes and exit this application it force closes too.

tried running terminal emulator to enable sysctl and when I hit enter it brings me back "unable to give rights"

Any ideas what could be wrong ? suggestions.

thanks

[T-Mobile LG G2x] ShatBag1105:
This is actually on old hack I used from the G1 forum. This is really useful if you are in an area where 4G or 3G is weak and you phone keeps switching back and forth to edge. Very annoying...

Install AnyCut from market

Open AnyCut and click NEW SHORTCUT

Click ACTIVITY

Scroll down to "Phone Info" and select that.

I renamed the shortcut "FORCE 4G" but you could name it anything.

Click OK

Now open the shortcut on your home screen, and scroll down to the bar that spans across the whole screen. This is the bar that controls all your network types listed here.

WCDMA preferred - The GSM phone is capable of using both 2G and 3G data communication and when signal strength is low 3G is favored more.

GSM only - The GSM phone is capable of using only 2G data communication. When the 2G signal is too low you get nothing at all.

WCDMA only - The GSM phone is capable of using only 3G data communication. When the 3G signal is too low you get nothing at all. (FORCE 4G!)

GSM auto (PRL) - The GSM phone is capable of using both 2G and 3G data communication and when signal strength is low 2G is favored more. This one is a bit confusing to me since PRL is associated mostly with CDMA technology and not GSM technology.

CDMA auto (PRL) - The CDMA phone is capable of using both 2G and 3G data communication and when signal strength is low 2G is favored more.

CDMA only - The CDMA phone is capable of using only 2G data communication. When the 2G signal is too low you get nothing at all.

EvDo only - The CDMA phone is capable of using only 3G data communication. When the 3G signal is too low you get nothing at all.

GSM/CDMA auto (PRL) - Some phones are equipped with both GSM and CDMA capabilities. This setting appears to just have the phone attempt to stay connected to the data communication type that works the best. (MY FAVORITE ON G2X)

Unknown - If none of the above fit or the phone is acting weird as far as connecting to the carrier, you will see your preferred network type is set to this

Im sure this hack works on all android devices, less options will show for phones w/o that capability.

BetterCut will obviously also work and youll be able to customize an icon for the shortcut :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DelinQuentisDQ:
Menu, settings, wireless and networks, mobile networks, network mode, wcdma only.

Won't that do the same thing without all the work?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] crx4xharder:
*#*#4636#*#*

Phone information

Scroll down

Change WCDMA preferred to WCDMA Only

Same thing as well... If youre that desperate for "4g", however, if you lose 4g/3g you lose ALL SERVICE, I believe. I had played with these settings on my n1 last year. In the end, I found WCDMA preferred was the most reliable ;-)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jayohwhy:
He's talking about changing the hidden menu. There are two menus, if you change it in the non-hidden menu and not on the hidden menu, is different.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] hiko36:
This should probably be moved to themes and apps or general. Nothing really developed here, no offense.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Berat:
This isn't the hidden menu this is just the phone info menu that you can access with *#*#4636#*#*
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mainmast2:
Thanks! I skirt the edge of society and there are a few ROMs that I really like to use that don't have this option built-in. Bionix has it but CM7/Faux and others do not have the option available from the mobile networks menu. I'm sure it adds to radio life if you set it to stick with the highest signal since the phone won't be switching towers.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DanDigity:
I have a post about this in the Q&A section, but have any of you experience the G2X using only 1X or CDMA data frequencies other than 4g?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] labsownyou:
Okay so I don't know what to do. I was trying to upgrade to one of these: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=842000 (I don't know which) via ClockWork and everything seemed to go smooth, atleast until it booted up. Now, I'm stuck in an endless bootloop of the boot logo ->

"Detect a recovery command

Erasing MSC

Booting recovery kernel image"

What I've tried:

Nvflash: It doesn't recognise it long enough for it to work

Hard reset: Didn't help at all. Still the same bootloop.

If anyone could help I'm open to any suggestions at this point. Oh, and sorry if I missed the fix (If there is one.)

Thanks,

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TJEvans:
That thread is for stock recovery images...so, out of the box firmwares at different points in time.

What were you running before you tried to flash one of these?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] labsownyou:
To be honest I don't know. It's been like this for like, 2 months. I just haven't had the time to do anything about it. I read somewhere that something like this has happened before, but not to this extreme. Something about it not liking being flashed through Clockwork or something.

Thanks for the reply.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mantara:
It specifically says not to load them through cwm. Can you get into recovery by holding down volume+ when you reboot?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mantara:
If you can get to recovery (cwm) then flash this to clear all the bad data out.

Then bownload and flash this. You will be happy with it.

What you've done here, is make a thread complaining about the 10 post requirement, so noobs can feign interest to get 10 posts and spam the development forums. In all honesty, senior members (who can be trusted) should need to approve of them. Or mods. But there would be too much for the mods to approve. Hence the trustworthy seniors.

[Off-topic] Archer:
I personally disagree quite strongly with it. When it was first being discussed I was under the impression that new users would not be able to create threads in the dev forums, and I was all for that. Then I realised it was not that, and suddenly the Q&A, and sometimes General, forums are filled with people asking for help flashing a ROM. My usual response is "ask in the ROM thread - the rules of XDA state not to make a new thread if there's an existing one", and they quite correctly respond that they're not allowed.

Basically, this new rule has made the Q&A and General threads even more disorganised than they already were.

I must admit that I didn't like it at the begging because I wanted to post a replay in one of the threads over there, but after thinking twice I guess it's a good thing to have such a rule. After all, it's not that difficult to get 10 posts!

In the past few months I was just a reader in XDA, when I wanted to replay I registered to do so, which led me to discover that I need to have 10 posts before I can post the replay I registered for, which led me to the general forums to find some useful topics that I can contribute in, and I guess the next step will be more contribution into the forums now that I'm a member!

[Wildfire Android Development] xd.bx:
EDIT: this thread is obsolete. Please consult the latest changes at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1162273

Nothing fancy, basically a stock build of AOSP 2.3.3 using device/htc/buzz from CyanogenMod. However I can't seem to get either radio or wifi working.

link to compiled ROM => http://www.filefactory.com/file/cb6789d/n/buzz_signed_052311_042218.zip

wpa_supplicant manages to associate with the network, but fails to start DHCP for some reason:

V/WifiStateTracker( 99): Changing supplicant state: GROUP_HANDSHAKE ==> COMPLETED
V/WifiStateTracker( 99): New network state is CONNECTED
D/WifiStateTracker( 99): DhcpHandler: DHCP request started
D/dalvikvm( 421): GC_CONCURRENT freed 226K, 51% free 2814K/5703K, external 604K/989K, paused 7ms+7ms
D/dalvikvm( 172): GC_EXPLICIT freed 189K, 50% free 2932K/5767K, external 1304K/1504K, paused 82ms
I/WifiStateTracker( 99): DhcpHandler: DHCP request failed: Timed out waiting for dhcpcd to start

Then radio is not working either, it didn't even ask for a PIN code. Like it cannot communicate with the modem. I'm using the libs from stock HTC ROM 2.22.405.1.

Also, the Camera app doesn't work as well. I feel like I'm cursed by the hardware :(
[Wildfire Android Development] nhnt11:
Make sure you have the proprietary files from Arne's github: https://github.com/arco/proprietary_vendor_htc

You shouldn't need to use libs from an HTC rom. Also, if you're building from AOSP, did you get any weird errors about being unable to open/create dex caches? I was trying to build an AOSP rom but I seemed to have zero access to the filesystem (including /data). Running #mount gave me some weird message saying "Toolbox!" or something.
[Wildfire Android Development] xd.bx:
Thank you for the quick reply. I didn't know about Arne's github, thanks for the link! I'll be sure to try it out.

So far I don't seem to have problems with the filesystem, /data is writeable and even system if I remount it read/write. Did you use stock AOSP in your ROM or the CM7 git? I tried the latest CM7 git but it failed to compile (had to fix errors in a couple java files, then gave up).
[Wildfire Android Development] xd.bx:
Just to confirm data access if working:

# su dhcp
su dhcp
$ ls
ls
$ cd /data/misc/dhcp
cd /data/misc/dhcp
$ touch 123
touch 123
$ ls -l
ls -l
-rw-rw-rw- dhcp dhcp 0 2011-05-22 15:57 123
[Wildfire Android Development] nhnt11:
Weird, I've been locally building CM for a long time and never had any problems. You probably missed the proprietary files, you need to clone them into vendor/htc.

I was trying to build AOSP. I think it was a problem with busybox though, because other than mount, quite a few commands I tried failed to even recognize the command.
[Wildfire Android Development] xd.bx:
So you were right, I was using the extracted libraries from my stock 2.2 HTC ROM, and they don't work too well with 2.3.3. Using the proprietary_vendor_htc libs (which are somewhat newer) actually did the trick :)
[Wildfire Android Development] xd.bx:
So wifi is working fine, and data too. Browser however crashes, seems to have something to do with JavaScript/the V8 engine.

Another problem is the Camera application that crashes when it starts. Any hint?
[Wildfire Android Development] bpye:
Camera is because it uses alpha transparency which requires a GPU, go look at adeadrats github for a working overlay. V8 is an issue and it required a patch in CM7, I think it's https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_external_v8/commit/532f57435e2effb4fd1e226e6dc0b88ad551c6e5 for the fix. You should be able to apply it to aosp. If you want any more help feel free to pm me :)

EDIT: Just noticed part of that patch is for unaligned access which doesn't apply to stock AOSP afaik. You just need the unaligned access fix.
[Wildfire Android Development] nhnt11:
I had to add a fix from CM to allow froyo camera libs... I'll see if I can find it for you. Check github history for frameworks/base. It was something in CameraService.cpp IIRC.

And rather than PM'ing like ben1066 said, I think it's better if we keep posting on this thread. That way we can all learn right? I suggest you change the thread title to mention Dev-Only.

Edit: I'm not sure if this is it, but if you haven't, add the following to the end of CameraService.cpp (under the CameraService::dump() method):

#ifdef BOARD_USE_FROYO_LIBCAMERA
static CameraInfo sCameraInfo[] = {
{
CAMERA_FACING_BACK,
90, /* orientation */
}
};

extern "C" int HAL_getNumberOfCameras()
{
return sizeof(sCameraInfo) / sizeof(sCameraInfo[0]);
}

extern "C" void HAL_getCameraInfo(int cameraId, struct CameraInfo* cameraInfo)
{
memcpy(cameraInfo, &sCameraInfo[cameraId], sizeof(CameraInfo));
}

extern "C" sp<CameraHardwareInterface> openCameraHardware(int cameraId);

extern "C" sp<CameraHardwareInterface> HAL_openCameraHardware(int cameraId)
{
LOGV("openCameraHardware: call createInstance");
return openCameraHardware(cameraId);
}
#endif

Hey guys,

Sorry for the late reply. I'm working on a fixed ROM right now.
[HTC Inspire 4G] S.Reno9:
Ok at random times, my phone will be showing full service...all 5 bars...or sometimes even just 3 bars....but showing it has service. Yet I have no internet and cant make phone calls or receive phone calls.

If I reboot the phone or turn airplane mode on and back off...everything will start working again....but this only last for a little while.....

I first noticed it after trying out LeedDroid, so I restored cleardroid and the problem was still there, I've since switched to the Ace Inspire rom by gtg....and tried using both the 26.06.06.30 radio and the 26.09.04.11 radio and there matching RIL. Same problem on both. When its working data speeds are great...best I've seen....but the problem is, its not always working.

EDIT: So I ended up formatting my SD card and starting all over with attn1's rooted stock rom, then flashed ClearDroids rom and so far so good, no problems.....my data speeds are back down to about 2.5, and I'm definitely missing the 4 to 5 I was seeing on some of the GB roms...

A little scared to flash anything else, so does anyone have any ideas on what might have happened, or had any experience with there phone not connecting even though it says there is service?
[HTC Inspire 4G] S.Reno9:
Any thoughts????
[HTC Inspire 4G] kirk123:
Did you do a full erase, wipe cache, dalvik prior to flashing the ROM?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Tx Redneck:
My guess would be something to do w/ the latter radio flashing. I lost good data speeds due to radio flashing and had to rerun the hack kit on.the rom I was usin to get them back.

Try.flashing just.the rom you want without the ril and see what happens. If I flash the ril, it breaks GPS on mine.
[HTC Inspire 4G] S.Reno9:
Yeah I always do a full erase, cache and dalvik before all my roms, I dont have that much stuff on my phone in the first place, so I dont mind starting from scratch each time.
[HTC Inspire 4G] S.Reno9:
Thats good to know....maybe the RIL flashing is what did it...its just odd that when I restored my nandroid back up of ClearDroid...the problem was still there, even tried flashing the Radio 3 times in row.... one minute I would be getting 4mb down and 1.8 up....then 2 minutes later...no data, no phone calls...yet full 5 bars of service....then if I waited longer...it might start working again...and so on.
[HTC Inspire 4G] zuriken:
Similar issue here on a STOCK rom. Looking at H+ with 3 bars and while the phone app works, I have absolutely no internet access.
[HTC Inspire 4G] laxwillsch:
There us something going on with flashing some of the desire hd roms and then the inspire roms. I lost gps under leedroid and after restoring a backup some thing stayed and was still causing the issues, it continued after flashing numerous roms. I had to redo the hack kit and start from scratch to fix it. I bet that you are having something of that sort going on. I was scared to flash anything after I got it set up but now I stick to either aosp builds or roms by US devs and haven't had any issues. Also on a side note, I have heard some people saying that gps on the inspire only works with a clear view if the sky, and mine will lock inside to 10 m in under 15 seconds. I think you just need the right rom.
