Some actual Problems I noticed in Super OSR (but you can live with most of them):

SMS: When I want to see the time when the SMS was sent, the phone ignores the time zone. Since I am on CET+2 this means that answers will appear above the message I sent before. So I had to set the SMS to show the receipt date and time, which is inconvenient in some cases.

Camera: Still crashing from time to time. I did not find any reliable 3rd party app yet. I can take pictures with the phone but I'll have to restart it sometimes.

Keyboard-Numbers: I cannot enter a "Zero" in some programs, also when adding contacs the fields of the phone numbers do not automatically switch to a number-only keyboard.

Internet-Connection: Sometimes the phone needs a restart in order to connect via UMTS/GPRS. Fortunately this does not happen very often (once a week maybe).

Wifi-Standby: Wifi might quit sometimes of you switch the screen off. If you have the problem you can keep it alive when you run apps like IMO (Messenger). If you only use Google Talk or AirDroid the connection might get lost.

WifiTether: I can confirm the issue that bungphe mentioned one posting earlier. Here at least you can solve the problem with a free 3rd party all.

So it's mostly the camera and 0-Key problem that still is bad, but you can live with the rest of the minor bugs.
[HTC ChaCha] bungphe:
0 key is fixed assuming you have standard english layout. Download and apply the keyboard layout update found in this forum. You will have to do some searching.
[HTC ChaCha] Flexmaen:
Unfortunately I don't have an english keyboard. Any hints how I cold fix this on an other keyboard?

BTW I also noticed one more bug concerning the google search. when i start typing, sometimes it will only search for contacts and ignore the apps although the search for apps is enabled. anyone else had this problem?

Contact Sync in CM7

in CM7 if I do not plan to use GAPPS, it seems i will not be able to sync google contacts. So Iis there a app which I can use to sync the google contacts?

Thanks in advance.

[Edit]

I had used the Exchange ActiveSync, to sync google contacts and calendar, however it didn't sync'ed my contacts well. The phone numbers which were marked as "Other" and NOT one of "home"/"Work"/"Mobile", they did not sych well. I have more than 500 contacts, so for now converting all those untagged "Other" phone numbers is pain.

But atleast, yes, Exchange ActiveSync is alternative to sync contacts.

Do anyone know any better alternative?
[HTC ChaCha] adlx.xda:
Yes, what you need is the Google Apps. :-P
[HTC ChaCha] mobilepgk:
Yes, thanks, but GAPPS come with lots of guns n arsenals which are heavy on Battery life. :) I do not plan to use gapps. So what I am looking at is some app which provides me ability *just* sync Contacts.
[HTC ChaCha] lucasarran:
Simples. Remove the GAPPS APK's you don't want from the zip file and keep the Google Contacts Sync in. :)
[HTC ChaCha] mobilepgk:
Yes lucasarran, but it will still install Google Framework, which I wanted to avoid.

Out Of Context : These days, (may be out of fun excersize) I am getting a lot of sensitive and trying to get a very very light setup on which I have complete control. Aim is to have better battery life. So far I have got 3-4days battery life. Will post my setup details in some other thread when I am ready. So for now, wanted to see if I can base my setup on CM7 without gapps. Thanks for reading.

SuperOSR: process com.adroid.setting has stopped unexpectedly

Dear

My friend is running this Super OSR ROM on his phone. Last night he got the problem when he wanted to modify the keyboard layout in Android. When he tried to access Setting>Language & Keyboard, he got this message from Mr.AOS:

Sorry!

The Application Settings (process com.android.settings) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again

[FORCE CLOSE]

How can he fix this problem? I tried Fix Permission but it didnt work. Thanks

Any chance on getting a update on the cm7 rom for the chacha?
[HTC ChaCha] misters:
hello All ;)

sorry to ask a stupid question, but i read on internet that CM 7.2 was released and that CM7 will support HTS Chacha, so my question is : where is the rom for HTC ChaCha with the official release of CM 7.2, because for me on the first post of this thread we only have a rom from 21 March 20012 [CM 7.2.0 (CyanogenMod) based ROM: DOWNLOAD Release No.: 20120321-2039] ?

Thank for your reply.

:)
[HTC ChaCha] abc_x3:
Factory Data Reset can return it :(

But, when i try to configure End button in Spare Parts, it occured again.

I installed Go Tieng Viet, an input method for Vietnamese typing. Is it a reason of this problem?

fixed chacha-keypad files

Here are all the fixed chacha-keypad files (zip attached)

Instructions: take the .kl and .kcm.bin that you are interested in and replace the corresponding file in the rom (in /system/usr/keychars & /system/usr/keylayouts). Rename the files!

EDIT: Those files are DEPRECATED. Don't use them. The issues were solved in another way (there is a dedicated thread about this).

Hey,

Let me know how GPS works for you. I can't get more than three satellites :(

Thinking about it, maybe I should downgrade the radio. Alex and adlx: which is your radio version?
[HTC ChaCha] Alex C.:
I don't understand why xdbg and adlx don't work together :)

xdbg, care to send me a PM with a download link for your build? I want to do a comparison between them and maybe give each of you some suggestions.
[HTC ChaCha] qbert456:
Bluetooth!!! Come on! :-)

Well done!
[HTC ChaCha] xd.bx:
Ok, but I'd like to find a proper way to load the correct kcm file before releasing a new CM7 build. Also I'd like to get the camera fixed.
[HTC ChaCha] Alex C.:
I'd rather care more for Wi-Fi than camera actually. :)
[HTC ChaCha] qbert456:
I agree, I don't use camera anywhere near as much as WiFi!

This thread is very exciting though, great work guys..
[HTC ChaCha] themickman007:
super excited about this. thanks for your hard work
[HTC ChaCha] adlx.xda:
Wifi is already working nicely, as well as data.

Here is my build for people who want to try experimental stuff on their phone ;).

http://www.mediafire.com/?u45h8ur1wvyiz9u

It's not CM, it's SuperOSR (more about it here) but the device/vendor files I'm working on are compatible with CM, so once it get ready we'll manage with CM Team the addition into CM.

Working: Call, Data, Wifi, GPS, Orientation sensor, Led, Keyboard

Not working in that build (at least): BT, Front Cam, Rear Cam, KB backlight,...

About keyboard: at least "generic" layout is working fine (not the Facebook key at the moment). if you need another layout, try to replace manually the files with the needed one from the zip I posted earlier. Use root explorer or alike).

Xdbg: here is my radio info (is it the info you wanted?)

gsm.version.baseband= 47.14.35.3030H_7.47.35.17
gsm.version.ril-impl=HTC-RIL 2.2.0159HM (May 20 2011,16:53:23)
[HTC ChaCha] carstenheuer:
YES!!! PLEASE POST A LINK TO YOU CM7 BUILD :)
[HTC ChaCha] adlx.xda:
IMHO the only proper way is using an app/activity that shows a list of available layout and the user choose the one that fits his phone.

The app could then save the selected value (chacha-keypad-xxx) in a persistent property, like "persist.keyboard_layout" (calling setprop) as well as set the hw.keyboards.0.devname to chacha-keypad-xxx .

setprop persist.keyboard_layout chacha-keypad-xxx
setprop hw.keyboards.0.devname chacha-keypad-xxx

To make it persist across reboot, just read the persist.keyboard_layout value upon boot (in a script called from init.chacha.rc for example), and set again ro.keyboard.0.devname to that value:

KL=$( getprop persist.keyboard_layout )
if [ ! -z "$KL" ]
then
# Restore the save keylout
setprop hw.keyboards.0.devname $KL
fi

Should be all good ;)

Where to fit that app? I guess for now we could do a small app to propose the list. Then we could integrate the activity into CMParts or Settings...

What do you think?
[HTC ChaCha] Alex C.:
Come to think about it, I think I saw CM on English QWERTY only on any device as official support. I don't remember if there is any CM7 build with other language support, but I may be wrong (probably).

Honestly I don't think that the keyboard is the main problem right now, as all users would really like to see some CM7 support (unofficial/official) and I do hope that they could sacrifice their specific keyboard layout for a CM. Is not that much of a price to pay, is it?

I'd use klingonian if that'll get me CM7 on my ChaCha ... (I hate Star Trek and anything related to it).
[HTC ChaCha] xd.bx:
By popular demand: http://www.filefactory.com/file/ce98701/n/update-cm-7.1.0-ChaCha-KANG-signed.zip MD5=154c47fb54cef44071eccf9af9ddfc68

What works: bluetooth, wifi, touchscreen, 2g/3g, lights (although perhaps I need to tone it down a bit), rotation, proxymity, gps

What doesn't: camera, non-qwerty keyboard layouts

To switch the keyboard, you could try to use the kcm files from HTC's rom (attached to this post) using for example adb push:

adb remount
adb push keychars/chacha-keypad-ita.kcm.bin /system/usr/keychars/chacha-keypad.kcm.bin

If you have GPS issues and you happen to live in Europe, I recommend flashing radio 7.47.35.17: http://www.mediafire.com/?96q32l4qxpvojqu
[HTC ChaCha] Alastor_ru:
Guys, sorry for interrupt your discussion about keyboards...

But why not to use 3rd party apps for it? Like ruKeyboard or AnySoftKeyboard?

I use the 1st one for cyrillic input and it works fine with official chacha FW.
[HTC ChaCha] adlx.xda:
Thanks for sharing your build :-D

I think they should use the one I have post (kl & kcm fixed), not the stock ones from HTC (which will break because of undefined keys like HTC_SHARE).

Does anyone in here wanna create a flasheable zip per kl/kcm pair and post it? (quite easy to do, just don't have the time right now). Could be a easy alternative also (easier than adb IMHO).
[HTC ChaCha] adlx.xda:
There are virtual keyboards right? Sure, it's an alternative, yet quite a pity in the case of the Chacha, as the physical kbd is the attractive of that device, isn't it?
[HTC ChaCha] qbert456:
Xdbg = awesome!

I'm going to give this a go once I get back to my pc.
[HTC ChaCha] Alex C.:
Hehe, this really made me laugh :D

As a side-note, the official radio for 1.52 is 7.51.35.19 on Europe. Is there any chance you can incorporate this radio into your build (in future releases, not now)?

I'm pretty sure Mikevhl uploaded all the radios for all the versions available in the dev section somewhere.
[HTC ChaCha] Alex C.:
They are both awesome, give props to all the devs that spend their free time creating something that you might use for 6+ months.

I am thinking of designing a statue for both adlx and xdbg. (in photoshop of course) :D

Congratulations to both of you.

how to flash it right Latest

i am asking how yo flash CM7 & SuperOSR right

here how i do it

1 - full wipe(Wipe data , wipe cache , format boot , format cache , format data , format sdcard , format system , formatsd-ext)

2 - toke SD card out and connect it to PC and delete all partitions and create fat 32 partition without siting drive later

3 - put it back in phone and partition SD card like ( 256 Ext - 128 SWP)

4 - power down and connect SD card to PC and copying files

5 - start flashing like this

{(1- CM7 then reboot ) (2- SuperOSR - reboot ) (3- Google Apps - reboot ) (4-Arabic keypad & Fix permissions - reboot )}

after that i can`t find Spare Parts

and can`t set render effect under

Setting>SupSetup> Parts (From CM)>Interface

and i wandering if i can set render effect on boot?

Now I Use CM7 and want to move all apps to sd how can I do that?

!!!!- _- !!!! Sorry For My Bad English !!!!-_-!!!!

[HTC ChaCha] g0rnex:
hello,

big problem, phone reboots when trying to install an app from market or titanium backup. Reflashing does not fix it.

running CM7.2.0-RC1 on my chacha.

Just wondering if some1 else here had this problem. Or does anyone know a link to a good fix?
[HTC ChaCha] adlx.xda:
¿Did you wipe Data? (choose in recovery is "Wipe Data / Factory Reset" IIRC).
[HTC ChaCha] Flexmaen:
Hmm... You could try to empty the cache of the market app.
[HTC ChaCha] g0rnex:
yes ofcourse, did all that was possible.

---------- Post added at 02:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:05 PM ----------

Tried this, not only when i download apps from market it gives an error. when i try to install from titanium backup phone reboots.
[HTC ChaCha] Alex C.:
Installed anything special? Link2SD? Something similar and maybe your SD card doesn't work anymore?

Can you recall the first time it happened? What did you do before that?
[HTC ChaCha] M.WeWe:
is there any chances to answer on my questions.

i know that you are Busy with cm9 Developing​
[HTC ChaCha] didije:
Repartition your SD card. That does it always for me when I encounter that issue.

---------- Post added at 05:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:59 PM ----------

Why on earth would one flash 2 roms one after another? Chose only cm7 or superosr.. (I understood that you flash cm7 and then superosr, if that is the case just chose one of them). I use Dark Tremor a2sd, but there are many apps/scripts that are able to move all apps to SD, even system apps. Google is your friend, search for dt a2sd, data2ext, a2sd, link2sd etc.

Regards
[HTC ChaCha] adlx.xda:
No need to format the sd cars in the pc if you are going to format it in the phone. No need.

After formatting the sd, you can show it to your computer from Mount options, Something like Mount USB iirc.

Then, run only one wipe: Wipe Data, the one in the first menu screen. It will wipe data, cache, ext... Everything, just in one wipe! No need to do the other wipes. Don't say it's safer out whatever, it's just not.

Then flash one rom, cm or superosr, not both!

Don't reboot after flashing!

Then flash whatever you may need, like GoogleApps (only for CM) and keyboard patch...

After having flashed all the stuff, you can reboot.

isn't it easier? ;-)
[HTC ChaCha] didije:
Hi adlx, is it possible to create a script like this one as a temporary solution for the front cam? This is just a dirty trick, but if it can be done it will be good for temporary workaround... It works for that phone running cm7.

To be honest, I don't need the front cam. But I'm not using cm7 or superosr because of the WiFi issues. It just doesn't connect/reconnect as it is supposed to. It is pretty much always stuck at obtaining IP address until it tries to reconnect again (sometimes 3-4 times) or I turn it off and on manually. I have tried to forget and connect again to my WiFi, tried changing channels, protection type, setting sleep to never, regulatory domain to 13/11 channels, static IP etc. but with no avail. If this is fixed, it would be the best rom out there for ChaCha/Status.
[HTC ChaCha] adlx.xda:
I will check that, thanks a lot for pointing that out, it could be a way of tricking the libs and apps, and get the front Cam to work! Nice find.
[HTC ChaCha] didije:
I had U8220 and I just remembered that trick dr. flo did @ Modaco, and I think that it can be done with ChaCha as well. I remember I could use it for video chat, and taking pictures as well, and I think that the majority needs it for apps that support video chat.

Speaking of Cm7, do you have any idea how can I resolve my WiFi issue from my previous post? I tried something myself but with no luck...

[HTC ChaCha] M.WeWe:
when install any app phone restart

didije002

i have did what you said i flashed Cm 7 and Tried to use Dark Tremor a2sd

here what i had done

after flashing CM7 went to m

mount & storage

then mount system and mount data

then i flashed dtapps2sd-2.7.5.3-beta04-signed.zip

then wipe cache and restart to system but when install any app phone restart
​
[HTC ChaCha] didije:
M.WeWe, I can only write down what I'm doing when flashing every rom, not just these two. So here it is:

1. Partition your SD Card (I usually set ext3 256mb, for me that is more than enough, swap 32mb and the rest of the SD Card to fat32). Reboot problems that you are having are related to your SD not being properly partitioned (that was the problem in my case at least), so try repartitioning your SD Card again. Remember that you only need to partition your SD Card once, not every time you install new rom.

2. Download Cm7 or SuperOSR, Gapps, DTa2sd, and everything else you may need (like keyboard stuff etc.) and put them on SD.

3. Boot into recovery, chose wipe data/factory reset (I also chose mounts and storage and then format system) and then chose install from SD Card - Chose your zip files and this is the order in which I'm installing them: Cm, Gapps, Dta2sd and others. After you install everything reboot your phone.

4. Enjoy

To move your apps to SD, search for DTa2sd commands via Google. You enter them through terminal emulator. Download it from play store if not included in the rom. Remember, before entering dt commands you need to enter su in terminal.

Also note that data2ext works just great with Cm7 so you might want to try that one instead.

Regards.

P.S. OP, Sorry, I know that this is development topic, but he is asking nicely ;) and maybe this can be helpful to someone.
[HTC ChaCha] Flexmaen:
Following Problem:

with SuperOSR (seems also exist in CM7 and CM9).

Certain Apps (e.g. Google Talk, Airdroid, etc.)

will lose internet-connection

some time after the screen goes off. Even when I selected that WiFi shouldn't go offline. I also had the problem with UMTS only.

Solution:

If you have some programs running, they can avoid that this will happen. E.g. you use the IMO Messenger and Airdroid will stay online too.

I just tested this and can confirm this behaviour. Maybe it's possible to find a solution in CM7/9.
[HTC ChaCha] ethancottier:

GPS issue

Funny, the GPS issue (that we work around going back to stock rom)... they have the same issue with the HTC Desire (Bravo):

http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/detail?id=5437

Comment 31 by wv8...@gmail.com, Jul 6, 2012

solution for me.... restored stock rom, activated gps in that rom,it was working, i obtained MSL # just in case it would be needed, then restored CM 7.2 this time leaving the GPS turned on in the stock rom, GPS works great in CM 7.2 for me now, did not need to use MSL #

hope this helps some

Comment 40 by santospr...@gmail.com, Yesterday (25 hours ago)

Should be some kind of initializacion problem, if you installed the ROM with GPS disabled it will not be able to start it.

I tried the old lib aproach just overwriting it instead of rewriting the whole rom:

- Just extact /system/lib/hw/gps.bravo.so (md5: a0e98f2cdff2012706109afcce123908) from update-cm-7.1.0-Desire-signed.zip

- Rename phone /system/lib/hw/gps.bravo.so, copy the 7.1.0 version, reboot, activate GPS (this time icon appears but does not work).

- Reboot again, copy back original gps.bravo.so.

- Reboot et voila.
[HTC ChaCha] riorim:
I confirm for the "flash stock/activate gps and get a fix/restore CM nandbackup" trick : works very well on mine ;-)

Now on this CM7.2, everything is ok for a daily use (I took this phone for work), the only thing disabled left is face camera but i don't use it for my purpose.

[HTC ChaCha] xd.bx:
Not sure if this is related but IIRC, a Java component (GpsDownload??) downloads the satellite trjectories from the XTRA server, then passes it on to the libgps which by "some magic" writes the data into a part of the radio. "some magic" can be a direct write into the nand partition. Now this data is valid for a certain amount of time (the trajectories will diverge, but slowly) so if you have a fix in the stock ROM, you'll retain the data in CM. Unfortunately I didn't study the XTRA on the ChaCha so I can't really provide more help, but as a side note, there are debug flags that can be activated in the framework.
[HTC ChaCha] adlx.xda:

I Have posted this from 31 days ago

and i am attaching to you ParfieldIME v4.0.433 can you set it to use Arabic on start like the old one
[HTC ChaCha] Alex C.:
If the IME changes the assignment output of one key I don't think that anything can be done. Just an assumption.
[HTC ChaCha] adlx.xda:
That's right, this IME seems to expect another mapping. Two options: change the IME, which I can't, no sources. Other option is change the keymap, which is also not possible, as it would affect all IME's (for example LatinIME).

I don't know how to solve this. I don't know either how it's achieved in the stock rom...

[HTC ChaCha] ToadFootNS:
Have you tried fixing permissions? Opet terminal and type "su" then "fix_permissions". Ofc type it without "" :)

If this doesn't work go to recovery and clear all user data and reformat all partitions.. then do a clean install again.

Try going into recovery, wipe cache and dalvik cache, re-flash and see if that works :) if not... wipe the data as well
