Its the synergy theme from the market. Im using the free version since technically they are supported on our phones. I dont think there would be a issue but unless I can send the dev a request to fix it then I aint giving him my money :P.

---------- Post added at 09:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:11 AM ----------

Im having a problem with BT but not connecting as a router. I think there is some connection between the two tho. Have you tried tethering your pc to the phone via BT? Im interested in if it will work or not.

If not then I would bet both yours and my problems are very similar in something within the BT configuration is not getting turned on with the rom.

I was able last night to connect to my PC via BT (both with the phone and my Nook), and to get a proper IP assigned via dhcp from the PC. So it reinforces the idea that there's something not playing nice between the rom and the tethering app.

Android uses dnsmasq to handle dhcp, and I'm slowly trying to get smart enough to start investigating how that is set up, but I could really use some help!
[Optimus V Android Development] bluefire_000:
That is exactly what is happening. Anyway I flashed with BACKside 9192011 version and it didn't turn out good. First off, the battery indicator is always at 0. Everything seems fine until the screen timed out or if you lock it, then when you unlock it it just loop with the android logo (the one you see when you boot the device after the IHO one) and the "warning: this phone will self destruct in 5 seconds." (<- anyway to turn this off?) Restarting the phone yield the same result. Any idea how to fix this?

Thanks

I'm not able to install custom bootsounds, dunno why.. it's in mp3 format and I renamed it properly too. What am I doing wrong?

[Optimus V Android Development] YouArePoop:
thanks. ran 9 and 12. don't really notice any differences so far.
[Optimus V Android Development] eollie:
What rom are you using? Jerrys rom is the only one withthe script built in. Search my posts and you will find a how to on installing the script.

My problem is I cant get my pc or vehicle to connect for anything but phone. Media will not play at all. So if you are not able to connect to pc via bt for wifi then I suspect its a issue with the bt module used in this version of CM7. Im actually glad somebody else is having some issues with BT working properly. It reassures Im not going crazy lol.
[Optimus V Android Development] leolawliet:
I'm using Jerry's rom
[Optimus V Android Development] eollie:
You are putting it in the /system/media/ folder right?

Just put it in that folder.

I know you said its renamed properly but make sure its not named like android_audio.mp3.mp3. Ive actually seen this happen a couple times.

make sure it has the correct permissions too

Our phone has 512mb of memory. Using the Supercharger the 512 hp selections are recommended. 8 and 9 assume you have 50-100% more memory than what the phone has. the script, as I understand, to example says if I have 100MB free memory wipe out apps in the 5th tier. if I have24mb memory wipe out those apps in the 2nd tier. You want more apps to be in the lower tiers so they stay and you have more apps in memory. 1GB settings will flush more out since it's proportionally expecting more free space.

I'm trying to envision an analogy involving water, fish and an an aquarium... can't think it through, though. Something about the aquarium is 512 gallons the fish are apps and the water is memory used. free memory would be the air above the water I guess. Regardless, we don't have a 768 gallon fish tank or a 1024 gallon fish tank. This is where I can't get my analogy all out. Big fish come in... there's poop everywhere.

[Optimus V Android Development] konnspiracy:
Can somebody give me a quick run through on the v6 script and how to use it with our phones specifically. Thanks for your help.

These last few builds have come along way, in that they have really good memory management. I have kept my applications the same but I see a constant level of memory management control. The only weird thing i have noticed is that the browser will randomly close if i have it open for awhile. I will have 2 tabs browsing xda and overclockdotnet and it will randomly close. I think this is just when it uses alot of ram it is forced closed.

Also has anybody thought of doing a "sense" build? If my old g1 could do it this should be more than enough hardware to work with. We just have to find a dev who is interested.

[Optimus V Android Development] JerryScript:
Please realize that these benchmark scores mean very little. Benchmark progs are good for testing changes and comparing the before and after buiild's performances, but that's about it.

Example: Run a benchmark, then run the SuperCharger script, reboot, then re-run the benchmark. Depending upon the choice you made in the SuperCharger script, your benchmark results will probably be slower. However, real life usage and experience shows the SuperCharger script does make a difference.

Also, be sure you leave your phone laying flat on a table and do not touch it while running benchmarks. Touching the screen or moving the phone can make a huge difference in your results.

The only benchmarks I use are apps themselves. For instance, the amount of time it takes for Angry Birds to load to the play screen is one of my favs. Angry Birds uses the graphics, math, sound, and network portions of the CPU to varying degrees. The difference in the amount of time it takes to start up on a stock OV compared to on IHO or other custom ROMs is immediately noticeable. The stock browser is another good one, since it uses graphics, sounds, networking, and GPS. See how long it takes for Google to load up, the difference is also noticeable.

Long story short, please don't waste too much time being worried about benchmarks. They really don't matter.

Having a problem with the 9/19 backside. Flashing it over a previous version.

My Google acct disappears and the option to add it back isn't there. Can't open Gmail.. weird stuff.

Redownloaded.. same result. I've ended up restoring the backup. Any one seen this?
[Optimus V Android Development] mrg666:
I have updated my build in the Wiki with 09242011. Synced two recent merges in the CM framework/base repo adding missing functions in the 2D accelerated rendering libraries. I wanted to test if OV had any benefit from these merges. So, if you try please post here if you see any improvement on the screen animations and transitions. I am not sure if this is placebo effect but there seems to be some improvement on the screen animations on my OV. There are no other changes.
[Optimus V Android Development] leolawliet:
What permission should I set?
[Optimus V Android Development] YouArePoop:
Just make sure after moving the file it retains its read/write permissions. For whatever reason using File Expert to copy files to system position causes them to lose rw for me, and I know bootanimation.zip won't show during boot without them.
[Optimus V Android Development] leolawliet:
I have tried changing the permissions and transferring the boot sound via Root Explorer. I'm gonna check out what permissions the boot sound has.
[Optimus V Android Development] deaver_92:
You don't have to reboot in-between flashes. Make a backup, wipe cache/dalvik, flash rom, flash gapps, reboot. All done. If you want to flash a theme such as Green Machine take the steps to flash the rom, reboot and set up the phone, reboot recovery, make a backup, flash the theme, wipe cache/dalvik, reboot.

Please note: this fix has been explained three or four times in the last two days alone. Do some research before posting an issue please.
[Optimus V Android Development] captaincrook:
I'll give it a whirl after I do a calibration (first boot usage right now). I'll stay on CM for a bit as the battery life has improved.

There are email apps that will make it easier to move messages between folders. However, I use the stock email app, and if I need to recover something from the trash, I press the menu button, select folders, select trash, find the message, open it, and then forward it to myself. ;)

i seem to be getting alot of FCs on programs that normally wouldnt in older builds- any way to check whats causing the FCs for troubleshooting reasons etc

I would try redownloading and reflashing the ROM, and be sure to check the md5. ;)
[Optimus V Android Development] fstmstngs:
Has anyone else had a problem with overly high in call volume, even though the volume is all the way down? I had it with Jerry's build, and now on mrg666's. I can hear my voicemail clearly from two feet away and the speaker crackles quite a bit. Is there a way to adjust the gain? I looked around the market, and everything seems to boost volume instead of lowering it.

I noticed a slight decrease with juice defender too, I alternated daily with it off one day on the next, and after about a week I came to the conclusion that it decreased my batter by 5% more per 8 hour work shift. Give the rom a couple days, your battery will be better
[Optimus V Android Development] blarfiejandro:
Okay, I hope to start catching up on stuff late next week. :D
[Optimus V Android Development] mkoyskip:
have a question updating a rom on top of another when using ext4 partition - if i flash over with the new rom can if i just enable my data2ext4 again giving me access to my installed apps? or do i just have to do what i've always done and wipe/reload everything? i guess i can just try it tomorrow if i have time, was just curious...

thanks.
[Optimus V Android Development] mrg666:
There is a recent commit in CM frameworks/base repo for enabling FM support in bcm4325. I have merged it and built again. But FM is still not working. :( FYI.

---------- Post added at 04:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:53 PM ----------

As long as you don't do a full wipe (wipe cache/dalvik cache is okay) you don't loose your apps in the sdext partition (ext4 or anything else). You can just mount it with whichever method you use (I use link2sd) and get access to your apps in there. BobZhome's ROM does that even without this additional step AFAIK.
[Optimus V Android Development] bigsupersquid:
there are some interesting initialization bits in the codaurora gingerbread build for the fm radio; a couple of *.rc and one or more *.sh files in the ramdisk, and a tiny bit that might apply in the init.rc

I'll dig 'em up and post what info I have relatively soon.
[Optimus V Android Development] mrg666:
You have got a PM.
[Optimus V Android Development] socaljon:
Works great on my optimistic v. Thanks
[Optimus V Android Development] mkoyskip:
Thanks, I'd tried out BobZhome's rom previously but hadn't figured it out as I ran out of space very quickly when restoring my apps. I guess I need to sit down and figure out link2sd so I can know what I'm doing wrong when I try it again (I'd thought that using link2sd automatically moved/linked apps but that's not what happened for me - just ran out of memory...)

Oh, and your latest update seems to be working fine for me - I've had some power/speed problems but I think I've been running more apps the past couple of days also - might delve into SuperCharger to see if that makes any difference. Thanks for the update.
[Optimus V Android Development] blarfiejandro:
Yeah, I was looking at the schematics, and I'm 90% sure there's no FM antenna... odd way to save money.
[Optimus V Android Development] mrg666:
That kills all of our hopes. But, FM app asks for plugging headphones to use its wires as antenna. You mean even the headphone wires are not usable?

By the way, good to see you here.
[Optimus V Android Development] blarfiejandro:
lol, I'm still here. Sometimes. :D

I was looking at that a while back to see if I could figure out how to do headset versus headphone detection. As far as I can tell there are only four wires to the headphone jack on the Optimus S/V (left out, right out, mic, ground). So, no, I don't expect the radio app to ever work (altho it's clearly not even being initialized correctly at this point).
[Optimus V Android Development] mrg666:
You either have a configuration problem with the SDcard/ROM or application problem with the way you use the sdext tools. But such discussion is out of the scope of IHO discussion here. I would recommend you to read the relevant threads of the sdext tools you choose.
[Optimus V Android Development] captaincrook:
Alright not noticing any noticible speed in the UI rendering on Mirage 9/24. I do have TWS close to 30%, and that ain't right for me. Any tricks to alleviate? I have changed my PRL for informational purposes.
[Optimus V Android Development] mrg666:
It would be great if you can test that TWS with the previous build at the same spot, you can get it here.
[Optimus V Android Development] deaver_92:
So I have some interesting info on this issue. This has been reported before and is present on my phone. Strangely enough it is a recent issue as it showed up within the last couple builds.

Even stranger, it is present in the recent Optimus S GB update. My friend has the OS and was complaining about the volume being too loud when it was all the way down. I had the same issue on my phone so I told her what I successfully did to fix it:

While in a call, turn the volume all the way up, then back down to where you want it. The volume will change after you have reached max volume.

This fixed it for my friend and myself. I'm thinking if CM pulled some stuff from the OS source they probably pulled this issue.
[Optimus V Android Development] blarfiejandro:
Yes. I believe it's been reported in the thread, and potentially on Github as well. Bumping the volume up a bit then down to the right level seems to fix it.

P.S. Looks like Best Buy has the VM670 on sale for $99 online (maybe in store too).
[Optimus V Android Development] mikeyeffing:
Was there ever a fix for the MMS?
[Optimus V Android Development] captaincrook:
Oh not I'm comparison to the previous build, just overall it seems for the past few days. I guess its just an off weekend. My apartment sucks so I expect some percent usually but 30 is higher than what I'm used to on obijohn's BB. (<7%)

The battery life is great nonetheless so far but I'd be able to crank out like a few more hours once I get it ironed out.
[Optimus V Android Development] Jsadik123:
Yup, a long time ago.
[Optimus V Android Development] mikeyeffing:
Was it in an update to the rom? I flashed and everything seemed to work but MMS. Ill try again. Thanks for the quick responce.

Reflashed and it worked fine. User error is my guess lol
[Optimus V Android Development] Jsadik123:
I'm glad it works ;-)

Bigsupersquid is working on the initialization of FM. Let's see what he will come up with.
[Optimus V Android Development] bigsupersquid:
I wouldn't hold your breath... if zefie couldn't crack it, I bet it's a tough nut.

I just noticed extra initialization in the CAF gingerbread (which I used to totally frag my old v by accident.)

I will post updates as I learn more.
[Optimus V Android Development] mrg666:
I have uploaded the 09262011 build to the Wiki. I have synced with CM. You can go here to check the changes since 09242011.

Two of the most visible changes are

- Camera interface updated yet again. I have tested movie and picture modes both still work.

- A new lock screen widget: Rings. You can see it in action here

I have tested as much as I can and did not find any problems yet. But be ready to flash your previous ROM in case there is a problem.

Do not use the old transparency theme with this build since the framework and Systemui have changed significantly. I will add the new theme tonight. => DONE, you can download it now.

WARNING about link2sd

: If you don't use link2sd or still using the old version 1.8, you don't have any problem. The latest version 1.9.1 has difficulty with this build due to new native apps2d function introduced in this version. It complains that the second partition was mounted after the user interface and asks a quick reboot instead of creating its own mount script. Do the following to remedy this problem.

- Before flashing the ROM update, using a root file manager (I use and recommend ES File Explorer) copy /system/etc/init.d/11link2sd to your sdcard.

- Flash the ROM update as usual.

- After the first boot, you will see link2sd warning in the status bar.

- After giving about 5 minutes time for the new ROM update to finish its tasks, run link2sd and let it do the quick reboot.

- After quick reboot, copy 11link2sd from sdcard to /system/etc/init.d and change its permissions to rwxr-x--- (use ES File Explorer)

- Reboot and check if links2sd warning is gone.
[Optimus V Android Development] mjs2011:
thanks mrg666. that lockscreen looks really fun!

i'm still having issues with my sd-ext and haven't had a chance to hook it up to a PC yet. i wonder if your method could possibly fix the issue. most likely not, but you never know.

for reference, i'm the guy that wiped data in recovery and i haven't been able to get my partition to mount ever since.
[Optimus V Android Development] konnspiracy:
If you have data moved to sd ext then do you still have to worry about all that?

Because I have to reinstall data2ext and then my apps re-appear. I guess what im asking is what is the difference from link2sd and data to ext2?
[Optimus V Android Development] jawz101:
There are some sd-ext methods that don't work with IHO. Since I've been on this ROM I've stopped sd-ext/data2ext simply because it doesn't seem reliable. Rather I just move apps to the main sdcard partition since it at least gives me more app storage and is a stock ROM function.
[Optimus V Android Development] mjs2011:
OK. The ring lockscreen is the best thing since sliced bread!
[Optimus V Android Development] YouArePoop:
I use data2ext and it works great. Only downside is I have to complete wipe everytime I flash newer version. Simply upgrading breaks all the apps .
[Optimus V Android Development] qccoles:
The ring lock screen is freakin amazing! I don't even see a need in widgetlocker...at all...I love you, keep the lockscreens coming! Thats a huge factor for me...lol.
[Optimus V Android Development] wilberfan:
This always happened to me--both with BobZ's built-in darktremor apps2sd (stable) and the latest darktremor apps2sd beta that I applied myself...
[Optimus V Android Development] pbailey212:
You don't have to do that with link2sd, you just have make sure l2sd is on your internal memory, or download l2sd again after flash. Then you open the app, pick your ext. And reboot to mount, and all your apps are back.
[Optimus V Android Development] Whyzor:
I just wanted to report mrg666's 20110926 build has a broken accelerometer, the screen doesn't rotate for me. I see another commit in BobZHome's source that should fix it. Everything else seems ok. Also the 2D acceleration code that went in on 0924 build does seem to help speed up menu scrolling a bit. I'm running 480 max on interactiveX governor and it's smoother than ever.
[Optimus V Android Development] mrg666:
Thanks for the feedback, Whyzor. Accelerometer works just fine on two phones here. Are there different sensors used in some OV phones? This sounds like the black-screen problem with the newer phones.
[Optimus V Android Development] konnspiracy:
Accelerometer is very snappy on my OV...

also I have noticed when I first got my phone a month ago that I couldnt overclock more than 844mhz. at 864mhz my phone would reboot immediately.

now I have done 7hours of stability test on 844mhz and alot of angry birds and web browsing and its fine. I can also bench at 864mhz.

I guess what im getting at is has there been any changes in the cpu side of things to make this happen? I have never had a cpu that had to be broken in lol.
[Optimus V Android Development] leolawliet:
mrg666 I tried your latest build, so far it's the most stable build I've used, and it has become my new favorite :)

One question, what's new with the kernel in this update that isn't included in the latest BACKside rom?
[Optimus V Android Development] leolawliet:
InteractiveX is godlike, it makes a huge difference. For anyone who hasn't tried it give it a shot :D
