Funny, you don't list Belkin. Seems the most issues OV users have had have been with Belkin routers. I used to own a Belkin G+MIMO, worst piece of crap ever. I wouldn't even use it for a doorstop for fear it's stench would drift in through the door.

Now my Linksys WRT54g with DD-WRT running on it is an amazing combination. For those not familiar with WRT/Tomato, they are firmwares that you can run on many different routers to increase performance and functionality. It takes a $50 router and gives it more functionality than a $500 one, you can even use a cheapo router for enterprise solutions! For instance, you can boost the power signal so high the FCC might come looking for you! ;)

I can walk three houses down the block and still get a wifi signal on my Optimus V from my home, and the router is in the back of the house behind a chimney! So I wholeheartedly agree, any wifi issues are due to either a poor router, a bad ROM flash, an app behaving badly, or a hardware defect in the phone. ;)

Yeah, looks like my first try has a bug in it. I'll try to iron it out before the next build. I also will add a registration feature to allow automatic notifications, trying to decide between the internal android notifications and using SMS/email.

---------- Post added at 09:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:27 PM ----------

I just tried the link on the first page of this thread, the post I made a couple of pages back about the new build, and on the wiki, all the links seem to work fine.

If you try to click on one in a quoted post, it will still be bad, I can't fix other people's posts. ;)

Two builds ago makes sense, I believe that is when they added the option to the quiet hours menu in CM. I'm not sure why it isn't working properly, I'll have to try setting my phone's quiet hours to a time of day I get alot of notifications and test it out. If you could grab a logcat and post it to pastebin, it would be helful.

@jondi23: I fixed the notification sounds, not the vibrations during quiet hours. ;)

Hi JerryScript,

Myself, I shoulda done more research before picking up a Belkin N600 DB/F9??? whatever it is. I live in a large home with a bunch of other guys and the house spending budget doesn't allow for much so I wanted to stay below the $100 mark. Well coincidentally or not about 2 months ago when I purchased it was when I was switching back and forth between yours and mrg666's builds but when using his I began to have connectivity problems. mrg666 recommended, at least at the time, to use yours or BobZhome's because of the "wifi fix" [in case anybody's interested mrg666 referenced me here: https://github.com/inferiorhumanorgans/android_device_lge_thunderc/issues/43 and here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=17291436#post17291436 while saying this: "I am not 100% sure about the reason of your WiFi problem but Bob and Jerry include a fix for a rare WiFi problem which I removed from my build since about one month ago. After many builds and hundreds of downloads after I removed that fix, this is the first WiFi problem I see"]

So before I go on and on too much (too late!) one thing I neglected to do was take the Belkin out of the equation just in case for some reason it is the culprit. When I restore my apps/data I also restore my wireless settings. Now this was a couple of months ago so... the plan for me is to install mrg666's latest whilst not importing my wireless data and see what happens.

mrg666 you've been very helpful & supportive so far - don't know if you remember but I was the/a person having boot circle issues, I believe it was some sort of thing with the themes, back around the end of Aug - so I'm gonna keep on going & testing 'till I can't anymore! Thanks.

mrg666 - I wasn't sure if the camera fix was just yours or also in the IHO main.

JerrryScript - yo' the WRT54g's are still going for $75ish these days. And I don't know how many I gave away over the years because I used to have some of them just lying around gathering dust (yes, no bs) Of course it's been a few years now or I wouldn't be b***ing about it. Especially now that I know about all the cool stuff they're capable of these days (like mrg666 is talking about: Tomato, and I seem to remember something like "dd something" that I've heard of lately).

Ok, later and thanks again to ya'll:D

EDIT: JerryScript - just clicked on the link from github and it's working now. I always check your post or there first, not sure why it wasn't working.

EDIT (again): BTW there ain't much to do in Martinsburg, WV when you're travelling - and the internet sucks at least where I'm at (took over an hour to download JerryScript's build). At least I'll have something beautiful to look at tomorrow when it's sunny out. Sorry JS, I mean the countryside! Though your's is green also:) Hah, I guess I'm witty afterall...
[Optimus V Android Development] mrg666:
Did you see this one at newegg?

I am using two of them (bought refurbished) with Tomato 1.28. They are very good.

If you need, you can extend the range with this super-easy mod. Link is just for reference, you can buy the required two pig tails and antennas somewhere else at a cheaper price.
[Optimus V Android Development] Whyzor:
My suggestion is to leave it out internally. There's nothing I despise more than a service that is always running in the background that just checks for updates. Some Google apps on PCs do this and a lot of people get angry about it. Update checks should happen at most during startup of that app, or have it attached to an Android App so when the user visits the app market they get notified.

Low audio volume on VOIP calls through built-in SIP handler.

IHO is awesome, but I have one issue that is driving me crazy.

The maximum volume for the built-in SIP client is much lower than it is for normal voice calls. This issue seems to get fixed, and then reappear, from release to release.

BTW, thank you for all the great work!

The icon for "Toggle Brightness" in the Notification Power Widget doesn't change as I cycle through brightness modes.

This started happening after updating to 11012011. Anyone else having this issue?
[Optimus V Android Development] JerryScript:
I can't reproduce this bug. I just enabled the widget, enabled all brightness levels, and tried it out, and it worked fine. Be sure auto isn't checked, since we don't have a ambient light sensor.
[Optimus V Android Development] Ventrue05:
wired headsets still dont work for me. :(
[Optimus V Android Development] Whyzor:
Just use the CM7 feature (CM settings - interface - status bar tweaks) that allows dragging the notification bar to set brightness, upper left for 0%, middle for 50%, and right for 100%. It's a lot quicker & easier.
[Optimus V Android Development] irieKEN:
Thanks, Jerry.

I have the following levels selected: Dim, 50%, and 100%

I tried disabling and re-enabling the notification power widget, but the icon still refuses to change as I cycle through the levels. It only displays the "Auto" brightness icon.

Update: It seems that the phone is stuck in Auto Brightness mode (even though I can cycle through the brightness levels), but I cannot seem to find where to disable Auto Brightness.

If nobody else has this issue, I will wipe my phone and start over with the latest release.

Update: Seems like this guy had the same issue: http androidforums.com/optimus-v-all-things-root/378525-rom-wip-backside-rom-cm7-green-machine-theme-35.html#post3436472

Hmm. The option is grayed out, because Auto brightness mode is enabled, but I can't seem to find where to disable auto brightness. The option does not show up under either Settings-->Dispay or Settings-->CyanogenMod Settings-->Display

Is there a config file for me to edit?
[Optimus V Android Development] jayleekay:
Jerry, for some reason I don't have the time across my status bar. Do I need to enable it somewhere?
[Optimus V Android Development] digitaljeannie:
To disable auto brightness you have to do it through Spare Parts.

default color is black. you can change the color in settings -> cyanogen settings -> interface -> status bar tweaks -> clock color

WOW! Looks gorgeous.

You can also add the ICS Roboto font. I find it easier to read and more pleasant to see. I have added this file to the Wiki as well. Roboto is now the default font in the latest MiRaGe build.
[Optimus V Android Development] wilberfan:
I've never dealt with adding a font--other than via the UOT Kitchen. I found an .apk for the roboto font--do I just install it? Does it have to be 'enabled' somewhere?

I'm not entirely sure that this is an IHO issue, but I figured that with all these new changes, it may well be - When trying to save pictures from within apps (Facebook in this instance) long-press does nothing, and the "Set As" menu, which used to contain an option for saving the photo to the gallery, no longer does, so the only way to get a picture is to screenshot it.

I have uploaded the 11112011 palindromic build :) to the Wiki. This build comes synced with CM repo and a few other changes as follows

- Roboto font replaces default system font which I find easier and more pleasant to my eyes

- Updated Superuser.apk and su binary to the latest versions (CM repo still has older versions)

- Power widget defaults for brightness and sound buttons.

- Updated 'download space check' init script

I have also uploaded the matching 11112011 transparency theme. Please don't use the themes from previous builds and boot at least once before flashing the theme.

I have tested on my phone and it seems to be working fine.

I came back to thank you once again JerryScript, the kids love your ROM and all there friends want phones like theres. Amazing what a ROM can do for a little phone like this. The only complaint I have is only with one off the phones and the fact that it reboots allot. I know it isn't the ROM, cause my sons phone runs like a beast on the kernel that came with the ROM. The phones are identical in that aspect. I was wondering if I would need or if another kernel might help my daughters rebooting phone. I have hers running at 600 mhz as of last night and I'm waiting until she gets home to find out if it ran better at normal speed. My sons phone runs great overclocked (not max of course) and it is stable as can be. Any ideas or suggestions would be great.

[Optimus V Android Development] JerryScript:
It's entirely possible there was data corruption at some point, either during file trasnfer or during flashing. A single spike in current can mess up a single important data bit that can throw everything off.

@mrg666

New build seems great. No issues. Wiped cache and dalvik - reinstalled New Build(after changing the "bootanimation.zip" within/and removing "File Manager" and placing "Astro.apk" in its place)/Launcher2/Bootsound(CoD MW3 Main Theme)/Gapps/Roboto. In order. Boot up. Then reboot back into recovery and flashed the touch up theme zip. Reboot. And she still is smooth, fast. So far fully functional. And basking in ICS Glory. I don't see a "Thanks Button" or tab anywhere on this app. So I'll just put 'er here...

Sweet ROM, as usual. Thanks

One question. Is there a way to default this ICS Launcher in flashable zip format? Basically, no ADW, No Launcher2.

Install process would be ROM, LauncherICS, Bootsound, Gapps, Roboto, Ziptheme.

I just have OCD and would love to eliminate any useless/unused elements. Hence why I replace File Manager w/ Astro everytime before I flash a new IHO.

P.S. My DOOM notification sound, and all others(God of War 3, and Command & Conquer) all work fine.

Yes, I'm a gamer. ;)

You can check out the Launcher2.zip file and modify it to work for other launchers. You will need to edit META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script and replace app/Launcher2.apk in that file. Don't unzip/rezip the file, just add/delete/replace the files within the package manager (7zip is good in Windows or use File roller in Ubuntu). You could also merge the zip files and updater scripts to make one large file and complete all of the mods at one step.

BTW I installed 11052011 and my wifi is working! I reverted back to a 10022011 nandroid for the heck of it and my wifi problem came back. Doesn't matter since your build now works for me again. I like to think that it could be possible that there's some mystical force that just didn't want me to use your builds for a while... nah. Though I'd almost rather believe that then consider the possibility of a specific hardware problem just on my phone. Perish the thought! [Plus I still never fully troubleshooted the issue such as a complete fresh install with no backup-restore, fresh sdcard, etc - oh and one other that I should have done: revert back from the Juice beta since it has enough issues on it's own as far as I'm concerned.]

she messaged me this evening and said that it hadn't rebooted since i put it back to 600 mhz. I'm going to let it ride until next weekend when the kids come back to stay with me for the weekend. Then I can tell you more about what is going on with it. I'm thinking the hardware might have a flaw that will not let it overclock. If so, and she wants it faster, I will be taking it back. Thanks for the reply, and i will update you later on.
[Optimus V Android Development] JerryScript:
If it's running fine at 600, then it most likely is the chip. Not all chips are the same, ours only have to pass factory stress tests that rate them at 600. They are in fact built faster, all chips are, but they are rated at the highest common value the manufacturer can get without a significant failure rate.

If you can reproduce the bug when you have her back, let me know which apps are crashing the phone and I'll let you know if it's truly an overclock issue.
[Optimus V Android Development] SuperFilapo:
So I should be able to change some of those settings? If so what are safe, tested values?

Sent via LG VM670 - IHO-MiRaGe - Full ICS Theme
[Optimus V Android Development] JerryScript:
As I stated in the post you quoted, it's different for every chip. You will have to experiment to determine your stable high end.

Take it up a notch at a time, but be sure set on reboot is NOT checked at this point. Each time you raise it, try a few intensive apps like a 3d game, the camera, etc. If they all run without your phone crashing, kick it up a notch. Once you find the point your phone crashes, back down 1 or two steps and enable set on reboot, and you should be fine. If you later start getting crashes, try lowering another step before you investigate other causes of the crash.
