FD Experience ver 1.2 bugs?

Hi

I ported version 1.2 of FD experience last day. I love the ROM.. its so cool and it has the looks of an X10 or other xperias.

now the bugs or mistakes I've noticed so far.

1. No Digital clock widget

2. Picture frame says there's not enough room?????

3. Contact editor do not sync your contacts with their facebook profiles. In fact none of the ROMS did that before. so in the Infinite view, some contacts have the image as it is expected, but for some other, the picture is small and aligned to left and fills only the half of the window.

Why the facebook integration fails? it would be cool to see our friends's profile pic becomes the pic in contact editor.even the SE stock ROM could do this..I hope the developer fix this in the next issue.

If you've installed FD experience, share your experience with it.

Posted in the wrong section, I apologize for that.
[Atrix 4G General] Deggy:
After reading a few threads regarding issues when it comes to flashing, I would like to do Public Service Announcement about flashing ROMs. I want to compile tips and advice to people who are noobs like myself. Feel free to add/modify/correct these.

1. Back up personal photos, videos, music, whatever you consider valuable, onto your computer. Often. I remember reading someone lost all his son's newborn pictures because a ROM fully wiped his internal SD card. Don't let this happen to you.

2. Use Titanium Backup app. If don't know what this app is by now, you should. This will back up all your downloaded apps from the Market. DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT BACK UP SYSTEM DATA. Get the paid version! Only back up your own apps. If you flash a new ROM, restoring system data from another ROM would/could screw up your freshly install ROM.

3. If you're flashing a new ROM, I highly recommend this method for a fresh and clean install:

Credit goes to CaelanT on this one.

4. Flash at 100% battery. Never risk bricking when your phone has low battery. The phone could die when the ROM is installing. It's basically full of DO NOT WANT if you're flashing on a unfull battery.

4A. If you didn't flash at full battery, use the app called Battery Calibration. The app resets the battery info, so ideally use this app when at 100% battery. Or follow the instructions in the app.

5. Make a Nandroid backup via CWM. Preferable before you flash a new ROM, kernal, framework, ect. I'm OCD, so I personally make a Nandroid backup about once a week. You never know if your phone is gonna bootloop or boot properly. Backups WILL save your life.

Again, feel free to correct me if anything is wrong. Happy flashing!

[Atrix 4G General] coolnow:
I always wondered about backing up system settings and restoring on a new rom. Granted, it'd be perfect if you're wiping the current rom but flashing a new one and then restoring old settings would probably mess it up! Great post, bookmarked!
[Atrix 4G General] Norcalz71:
So only my second CWM flash coming up (work takes up way to much time to be playing with it as much as I'd like)

Currently on Alien #2, going to upgrade to 4 and the 1.77.30 radio.

Will going through all the fastboot wipes eliminate EVERYTHING? And then, when flashing Alien4, will it all be restored?

It is my understanding, perhaps wrongly, right now that Alien does not touch the webtop, so if I wipe the webtop partition, flashing alien will not restore it and I will need to restore is separate/manually for example?
[Atrix 4G General] beely:
Whenever I flash a custom blur-based rom (not cm7) - sorry if I am using the wrong

terminology, it still has some reminiscence of previous setting - mainly is the screen

setting. For example, a quick note widget with content I typed in and a whatsapp app

shortcut on the Home screen even though the app is not installed after a flesh flash .

I did do every steps listed by op. However, I did skipped the fastboot steps after wiping the big

3 in recovery during my first few times of flashing a new rom.

Is it normal that some of the previous settings are retained?
[Atrix 4G General] WiredPirate:
Photobucket is great for backing up pics in the cloud, every time I take a picture its instantly automatically uploaded to my Photobucket for storage. You can pick a picture quality to match your battery/data usage. I know this is slighty off topic but hopefully noone looses any more baby pictures..

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasolo:
I have noted small artificial silences when listening classical music with my SGS2, just during the quiet parts with few instruments. It seems as a noise cancellation process and it's very annoying because the listening gets bumpy. This occurs with the stock player (checked all the adjustments) and with Winamp, and also with MoboPlayer when the soundtrack of the movie is nearly background noise. I'm using the stock headphones and the lower volume of the player (listening at quiet places). Is that normal? Any solution?

I'm trying to tether my bionic to any number of laptops/desktops with built-in wifi or a dongle (Win7), and it keeps getting stuck on "Identifying". I read that this was a problem on some Intel wireless cards but none of the devices I'm using are Intel-based. I've tried changing channels, turning encryption off/on, all without any success. What else can I try?

bananacakes 0.7e works with no problems for me. If you're looking for battery life over speed try tristans bfs kernel, a little laggy but better battery life.
[Desire General] MatDrOiD:
snq- makes very good kernels from what I heard.

ManU's and thalamus' kernel are only for AOSP roms and cannot be used with AceSMod (sense rom).

[Motorola Droid 3] lacesout:
My Droid 3 is rooted and I received the OTA notification. It downloads fine, reboots the phone, and begins to update. About 1/3 the way to update, the Android turns into an Exclamation point and reboots. Once back to home screen I get an Update Failed error.

Here is what I did so far:

-Defrosted all apps then rebooted

-Restored all system apps with Pete's One Click Root

-Pulled Battery for 5 min

-Factory Reset Phone

After each of these steps I tried to install the update and same thing. Will not get past 1/3. Any suggestions?

[Motorola Droid 3] lacesout:
Thank you, this work!
[Motorola Droid 3] pmauddib:
lacesout, had the same experience. Used one-click method to root, then used psouza4's bloat script to remove, then restore apps when the update became available. These were my only mods. Went to /system/app and all app's are back with the proper apk extension. Update downloads fine, then hangs at 1/4 to 1/3 of install. Anyone else with similar experience or thoughts as to what's hanging the OTA install?
[Motorola Droid 3] nu2droid:
If you used the script to re-bloat the system, use root explorer and double check all the ".bak"s were removed. I don't remember which one, but I remember there was a file or two the script skipped over.

Also, if you did a nandroid before debloating, you can restore it, then go get the update. (The second option is what worked for me).
[Motorola Droid 3] pmauddib:
Thanks for the reply and the tip on root explorer, it's an elegant tool, more intuitive to use than the freeware apps.

All the file extensions in /system/app are either .apk or .odex with the exception of Fota.apk.bak, and Fota.odex.bak. As the first time I heard of nandroid was your post, I unfortunately didn't use it, so I don't know if these were the extensions before I used psouza's bloat removal script. Fota was not on the list of scripts to remove/rename in his original post.

As Fota is the "firmware over the air" app, it is suspicious that it's the only one with a .bak ext. I am using root explorer to rename both, removing the .bak, and then will attempt another update.

Success! "Your phone has been upgraded to 5.6.890.en US version". Have lost root, at least for the moment. Will deal with that tomorrow. Last thing to do before going to bed is find the "Thanks" button. Thanks for setting me on the right path. P.
[Motorola Droid 3] pmauddib:
Unable to root after OTA to .890

One click root not longer works. After clicking "run_to_root_your_droid3.sh" on PC (Ubuntu 10.04) I get no prompts on screen, but phone does reboot twice. No su privileges after boot. Busybox is installed in /system/xbin and there is nothing I can do about it as I can't mount r/w. Using Root Explorer and Script Manager as tools.

I realize I'm going to have to increase my learning curve here. Would appreciate any links to relative threads on this topic, or suggestions on what to try next (I have searched, but need some direction).
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Steven3k:
Hi,

I have a rooted Samsung GT-I5500 phone with stock Android 2.2, unfortunately the g-sensor is always reporting incorrect values for the Z axis.

That is when the phone is placed horizontally I get values of about 1.2G on the Z axis, while when the phone in standing vertically or in landscape mode I get values of 1G on the X or Y axes (as they should).

This causes applications to think the phone is being moved, for example in "GPS Status" I costantly see the acceleration value being around 0.2 even if the phone is not moving.

Moreover there is no calibration option under display settings and the procedure described here (for another model): http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=6999499&postcount=8

cannot be applied because /system/bin/sensorcalibutil_yamaha is missing.

Can someone kindly help me? :(

Hello!

I have ha a problem ever since the 2.3.3 update that has made my X10 pretty much useless... The problem is that it wont connect to my home WiFi network (after the update, ran just fine on 1.6 and 2.1) unless I used Static IP.

However two days ago I had to flash the phone using SEUS and it have not connected to the WiFi ever since no matter if its static or regular.

I went to the store where I bought it and the dude over there was able to get into their router and told me that the error lied in my router so I am now asking you guys if you have any Idea whats causing this issue.

The router I am using is Belkin N1 wireless router [FD58231-4]

The reason I am putting this under the X10i Q&A is that I remember other having the exact same issue and maybe someone has found a solution (searched XDA up and down but to no prevail...)

What in my router would cause my phone not to get any internet connection?
