Alpha 10-flash problems

I like to watch videos on comedy central and sometimes streetfire.com. These worked fine on Alpha 7 and 8. Had issues with 9 but worked sometimes. But with 10 it mostly doesn't work. Same result from DolphinHD and stock browser. I read from somebody else that gallery app has some effect? I usually uninstall the gallery on every build as one of the first things I do. I hate how it never quits and restarts itself and I find "quickpic" for pictures and "Mx player" for videos to be infinitely better anyways. So how can I get flash to start working again? I've cleared cache, dalvik, but that doesn't fix this particular problem. Everything else works great. Well camera issue at 1080 is a major bummer but everybody knows that already.
[HTC Sensation] bxlegend:
A fix for flash was posted a few pages ago. There is poor performance on HD video. Edit the resolution for HD recording in /etc/mediaprofiles.xml to 720p resolution (1280x720), for a workaround with the camera..
[HTC Sensation] ianken:
I installed adwEX. I don't see any sense bits. Plus, sizeable icons and fonts ftw.

I look forward to a well baked cm7, and until then things are swell and sense is nowhere to be seen.
[HTC Sensation] Phateless:
Dialer, contacts, menus, bloat, etc. This rom is one third the size of sense.
[HTC Sensation] the-Mike_D:
Thanks. I found the file to remove all permissions from. It works now. Have to do it for dolphin as well as the stock browser but it's the same process. About the camera, yeah I changed mine a while back to the 720p by editing the file. Still a bummer that it can't be used to it's full potential yet but of course it's understood that this is an alpha build. Still my favorite.
[HTC Sensation] blahbl4hblah:
Just be glad to have cm7, as for when it'll be merged into source. It all depends on when Kmobs believes its time to merge. I want it to be merged as well believe me. But its better to have something then nothing
[HTC Sensation] Sdobron:
It's a daily driver. The problems are not major and the battery life is acceptable. I go 12 to 16 hours per charge with 3 to 4 hours screen time. With less use the ROM could easily yield over a day of battery.
[HTC Sensation] kristofpetho:
Dubbing something "Daily driver" is very subjective. If you primarily use your phone for phoneing and taking lots of pictures of your family, then Sense is the way to go...

If you mainly use it to phone, text, email, GPS, etc, then yes, even the CM7 alpha we have now is good enough to be used on a day-to-day basis.

Anyone have the fm radio.apk from selfKANG 9 they wanna hook me up with :D
[HTC Sensation] Part Four:
This is getting frustrating. I keep clearing market app data, installing new apps, clearing cache and dalvik cache, reflashing GAPPS and even using Titanium Backup's Market Doctor, but NOTHING is showing up in the market under "My Apps." I used to just get a blank white screen under	"My Apps," but now I get a screen saying "Applications owned by this account will appear here" with two buttons labeled "Browse apps"and "Browse games."

Has anyone else had this problem or know how to fix it? It seemingly appeared out of nowhere. This wasn't happening last week. Thanks in advance for your help.

This camera MOD fixed my video issues when recording in HD. Before the MOD, 1 second and my phone would reboot when recording in HD. Now I can record...Dont know for how long, I did a 1 min. video and got bored. Try it out.

Haven't had this issue but let's try to solve it.

Did you use fix permissions?

Do apps show up when you install from market?

Which version of the market are you using?

Did you try to upgrade to newer market?

Did you check if web version of market has issue with your account?

Are you restoring system apps from a previous build with Titanium Backup?

Did you get a logcat?

Respond with detailed answers and hopefully we can find a solution for you.
[HTC Sensation] hev88:
Thank you... very much appreciated
[HTC Sensation] bwilliams1:
I'm pretty sure this is what kmobs was talking about on g+
[HTC Sensation] Jiggs82:
The FM radio from alpha 9 doesn't install on alpha 10:( what am I doing wrong? I backed up and uninstalled the broken version using Titanium but it still won't install. Thanks in advance
[HTC Sensation] hev88:
Push it to system apps and change permissions to rw-r-r
[HTC Sensation] Jiggs82:
Ok thanks. Another question is there a way someone can make or add a 4g icon mod for this rom? Thanks in advance
[HTC Sensation] bxlegend:
The 4G icon can be found with a simple search. Please use it next time.

Oh nah i already had searched and tried that zip with this alpha rom but for some reason it didn't work for me and my status bar kept forceclosing. Good looking out though
[HTC Sensation] El Daddy:
My market is back to normal after 3 days of wonkyness on all my devices. Must have been a problem on Google's end.
[HTC Sensation] vegasjoe:
Wow - worked beautifully. Thanks for the tip.
[HTC Sensation] bxlegend:
This fix has been perplexing. If you remove permissions from this file how, does it get Flash to work since the file cannot be accessed by the system? Is it actually something in the file itself causing all of the issues? I think it's worth looking into.
[HTC Sensation] aNYthing24:
From my experience the fix works - but HD video is very choppy. Before the whole flash bug I was able to watch 1080p on YouTube without any issues.
[HTC Sensation] bxlegend:
Ok I looked into it and it seems that issuing read permission to "Other" is what is really causing the problem of flash not working. So it is safe to input the following command in terminal or use Root Explorer/ES File Explorer and navigate to the config.data file and changing the permissions to rwxrwx-wx.

su chmod 773 /data/data/com.android.browser/app_plugins/com.adobe.flashplayer/.macromedia/Flash_Player/config.data

Remember it is not correct to issue no permissions to any file in the system with chmod 000.

I was referring to the reason as to why the fix works. Now that we know, the team can better track down the issue causing Flash to break.
[HTC Sensation] the-Mike_D:
Would you mind saying in plain english or even perhaps a screen cap using root explorer of what the permissions should look like for that particular file? I had to look up chmod 000 before to discover that it just means removed all permissions but I'm not following the "rwxrwx-wx"

edit: nevermind. I think what you are saying is : Owner: read/write/execute |Group: read/write/execute | Other: Write/Execute Basically just omitting "read" from other.

On another note, this is probably a dumb thing I overlooked but how do you get audable alerts+vibrate to not chime in when you are actually ON a phonecall. It is really annoying to have a loud chime while you are talking to somebody. When not on the phone it's great but anyhow, probably just a setting I overlooked somewhere and can't find. I'm talking about the alert when I'm receiving an email or a text message.
[HTC Sensation] bxlegend:
You got the gist but to further educate yourself, here is the MAN page for the chmod command. It's good to read up on commands you use in the terminal to get a better understanding about what everything you are typing is actually doing.
[HTC Sensation] CaliLove310:
I seem to be having problems with the market and compatibility issues. Apps that i've downloaded before now give me a message on their market page saying they are not compatible with my device. I've been seeing it happen on more and more apps lately. For example, I installed Angry Birds seasons a while back, I still have it installed but on the market it now gives me that error. Another I can think of is Netflix app, I recently signed up for it but I cant download the app for this reason. Which is weird, I remember seeing a post on Reddit showing that Netflix had received an update to address a few issues it had on CM based roms.

Edit: I was using LCD resolution to change the density. I reverted back to stock density and it fixed this issue.
[HTC Sensation] lamplighter13:
I am using this ROM now and do love it but whenever I apply a new theme the theme homescreen wallpaper never shows up.

The new theme is properly applied and shows up all except for the wallpaper, does anyone know how I can sort this out ?

Cheers all, LL13- :D :D
[HTC Sensation] hoskic:
How to do this push please?
[HTC Sensation] gol_n_dal:
It's a mechanism of using adb to copy files over.

http://android-dls.com/wiki/index.php?title=ADB

adb push <local> <remote>

You need to have an installed and working adb on your pc/linux system.

There are a myriad of tutorials on the subject, do a search.

EDIT: lol found this by accident: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1152148

If you don't use adb an alternative way (I'd recommend the adb way BTW) is to copy it to the sdcard as usual from the pc. Then use Root Explorer (or another File Manager) and move the file using that.

You can then change permissions in Root Explorer (can't comment directly on others but they should also be able to) to the correct ones.
[HTC Sensation] DonJuan692006:
Messages -> Settings -> Notification Settings -> untick Vibrate on call....I think that's what you're looking for.
[HTC Sensation] the-Mike_D:
Nope that's not it. There doesn't seem to be a setting in cm7 for "quiet alerts during a call." It's a loud alert from the earpiece when receiving a text message or an incoming email during a conversation that I'm trying to silence or at least attenuate.

On Another note: the flash fix from Lsears is the correct one. I tried the alternate setup that the more recent person suggested of just excluding the "read" from group and that does not work at all. Only the removing of all permissions to that particular file works (on the mobile flash 11 that just updated in market recently)
[HTC Sensation] Phateless:
Isn't there some option somewhere to attenuate volume? That might help.
[HTC Sensation] DonJuan692006:
CM Settings -> Sound -> untick Vibrate during calls. My thinking is that you may have a bug where its not just enabling vibration but enabling the notifications in general. I don't run into that issue but I also keep my phone in Vibrate mode 95% of the time.
[HTC Sensation] bxlegend:
I've tested it with several sites with the update to Flash 11 and forced closed the browser with every permission change. This was all done on the default browser. Which one are you using? This can give us more insight into what is causing the problem..
[HTC Sensation] Part Four:
I've determined that the issue started after I used Titanium Backup to detach a few apps from the Market. They were paid apps that I got for free from the Amazon app store that I no longer wanted to see in the Android Market. Nothing I've done, including reattaching them, has fixed the problem. Anyone know what I might be able to do to fix this, given the info provided? Thank you so much.
[HTC Sensation] rednav:
I'm getting an FC when I'm assigning a photo as contact from the gallery app. The same works via the contacts app.
[HTC Sensation] Part Four:
Please help answer my question before discussing other issues, thanks. :)
[HTC Sensation] stonew5082:
That setting refers to headphones only i believe. Speaking of which, i cant get the attenuation to work. Anyone else confirm? When listening to music notifications are quite annoying. The attenuation seems to do nothing...
[HTC Sensation] bxlegend:
I don't know how to answer this as it looks like Titanium screwed up your market info. Did you try going to the market website on your computer and have it re-download the apps to your phone to see if it will restore the links? If not try restoring older backups and see if the problem happens on those just to make sure. You may have to work the issue out with the Titanium dev.

---------- Post added at 09:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:35 PM ----------

I didn't get an FC at all. Are you running leaked Google apps? Try running a fix permissions. If the problem persists, get us a logcat.
[HTC Sensation] the-Mike_D:
I use dolphinHD mini. (had to adjust permissions for it's own version of the file also) But I've confirmed that it plays fine also on the stock browser (cm7 A10) as well. I don't know why it wouldn't work for you if you've tried every combination? I can tell you what the consequence is though of removing all permissions to that file is however. The video does not pause/stop playing on it's own when you receive a call or even when you minimize it and go back to your homescreen. (You know it didn't stop because you can still hear the audio from it in the background) Although visually it will take 2nd place to your incoming call screen or homescreen. It's not able to receive the alert from system that it should stop. It's a lesser annoyance however than to simply not be able to view web flash content so I suppose I'll stick with this setup until it gets worked out.
[HTC Sensation] Part Four:
In case y'all hadn't heard, Adobe has discontinued work on Flash for mobile devices. Apple "won" this one.
[HTC Sensation] bxlegend:
I wasn't saying it didn't work, I was saying my way (chmod 773...) works with latest version of Flash 11. Try chmod 662 and see how that works for you. I feel like we might have to go back to the old days of listing all of the apps we are running to sort out all the inconsistencies with each user.

---------- Post added at 10:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:30 PM ----------

They've stopped future development but will continue to release bug fixes and security updates for current Flash 11. As soon as they fix all the issues with HTML5, i.e. use open codecs and not proprietary ones, Flash may be abandoned on all platforms in the future.
[HTC Sensation] pr0x2:
Because they want to push adobe air. That is the reason for not making flash 12 for mobile anymore.

[HTC Sensation] Bubreg:
Well, to be honest, flash is a very problematic technology... almost unnecessary. I'm sure that ANY future alternative to flash will be better.
[HTC Sensation] Part Four:
Well now, this is pretty incorrect.

It's all about HTML5.

I'm using Market version 3.3.11, which is what the market automatically updates itself to, no matter which market I use.

My Square card reader also isn't working. I just enter the info manually, for now.
[HTC Sensation] kusotare:
Or it could be that it's only a few of you that dont know what he's talking about. I understood him just fine. There is an application called "Square" that allows you to take credit card payments for services, etc. through your phone.

With this app, you can either enter the card information manually every time someone wants to pay you, or you can get a card reader that plugs into the port on your phone so people can just swipe and go.

His card reader is not working with alpha 10. That clear enough for everyone?

I need you to perform the following steps.

Connect your phone to your desktop.

Open up the command line (Windows) or terminal (linux).

Change your active directory to the one you saved ADB to.

Start a logcat by typing

adb shell logcat > /sdcard/logcat.txt

and hit enter.

Launch the square app and try to swype. Do this at least three times.

Stop the logcat by hitting Ctrl+C.

Mount your phone as USB Storage.

Open up the logcat.txt file and select and copy all the text.

Open a browser and go to http://pastebin.com and paste the text you copied there.

Come back to this thread and submit your issue again with a link to your http://pastebin.com post.

With all of this done the devs will be able to better address this issue. Thank you!
