Thanks cant wait to wait

Thanks for a quick response. I was not sure if it was completely working so I should not of said that. But I was just wondering if the build was enough to use yet and if absolution was going in that direction.
[HTC Inspire 4G] dsmitty166:
I can't speak if we will go that direction yet, but it is not stable for use yet, only testing.
[HTC Inspire 4G] rasroygbiv:
The new absolution 3.0 will Not be ics. It will blow your doors off. The update is coming soon... It has been tested and is rock solid. Once it is ready for release, it will be. Soon enough...

no connectivity

Hi ... I dunno if I am repeating a query, however, here goes. I am running Absolution 1.6 LM kernel and am experiencing a drop in data connectivity. I do not know what could be causing this. Any suggestions/hints?
[HTC Inspire 4G] maatsby:
Easiest suggestion would be to update both ROM and kernel. There was a LM kernel a while back that had data connectivity issues
[HTC Inspire 4G] shugga101:
I know you recommend everyone to full wipe before flashing to prevent any problems. But would it still be fine to flash right over 2.0 and only clear dalvik cache?
[HTC Inspire 4G] gio22:
Different base so you should full wipe. If you don't you'll know why you are having issues.
[HTC Inspire 4G] rasroygbiv:
Yeah, you are two releases behind!:eek: The data drop has not been an issue at all during testing. Update and you should be just fine;)

navigation question

Is it me or the need to restart gps for navigation to work still exists in Abs 3.0?

Thanks.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Droidalok:
I'm using the 2.6.35.14-lordmod 8.1cfs kernel. I am unable to find the lm kernel for 2.0. Is there an update for the kernel I'm using? Please excuse the noobishness
[HTC Inspire 4G] gio22:
We are glad you like the ROM. To turn off animations go to Settings, Display and then Animations. Choose what you prefer.
[HTC Inspire 4G] rasroygbiv:
Hey Tx, do you have watchdog installed? If not, let that run and see if it flags any gps enabled apps. If that doesn't work, pm me a logcat and we will see if we can figure it if it's a bug or a bad flash.

H symbol (status Bar)

Great rom, just one question. My H symbol does not line up with the arrows underneath it. Is there a fix for this?
[HTC Inspire 4G] NunHugger:
Yeah, retheme it. ;)

Those images are the stock images from Samsung. They are meant to look that way. If its a deal breaker, you could pull images from another sysui and place them in using 7zip. I will work on making it less annoying at a later date. I have another rom that needs some love at the moment.

Just want to thank all those involved with this ROM. I have to say this is by far the best thing I've flashed in a long time. I really appreciate the hours put into making this the most complete release. I just rooted a Co workers inspire and flashed ninja on for him, now I gotta show this gem off come Tuesday. Truly amazing!

Update on GPS issue I'm having:

It appears that it's something I'm restoring w/TiBu that's causing the issue, what I'm not sure since I don't do any Sys Data only App Data.

I'm gonna reflash for the 5th time and selectively install apps the use GPS till I figure out which is the offending one. I'll update again when I figure it out.

Rather then messing around with 1.6, why not just update to 3.0. I've used all the roms, and so far I'm very pleased with the latest. The devs have out-done themselves with this one.

GPS stays on all the time

Looks like the GPS (or at least status line indicator) is on all the time, with no map or nav running. If I recall on 2.0 it only came on when gps was in use...
[HTC Inspire 4G] rasroygbiv:
This was never reported by testers, nor have I experienced it personally. I would have to assume that an app is calling on the GPS and Not shutting it off. Check permissions for apps that use location services. Also allow network location, a mist apps will use that first if it's available and enabled.

[HTC Inspire 4G] gio22:

[HTC Inspire 4G] hungmung:
Sorry if this was answered already but I skimmed and am on the mobile app so searching the threads is out. I just got a replacement for my jawbone icon that died on me a few months ago same model on the same updated firmware.

It used to be that when I was plugged in to the stereo in my car that I could have my Bluetooth on and hear the music over the stereo now if I turn on the Bluetooth it switches the audio to that instead and I'd rather not have to toggle the media box under the Bluetooth options every time I get in or out of my car if possible because I do use the media streaming to hear GPS directions easier for work. Any help would be appreciated thanks.

I finally got around to installing Ver3. It took awhile because I ASSume a full wipe should be done going to full version change. So I did and it's beautiful! I love the blue. I couldn't hack the orange for long, so I was using Advent. Great job as always! I really appreciate everyone's efforts.

My question is: you have Titanium Backup installed already. I use something else and would like to get rid of it, but it won't ever full uninstall. I figured I'd open the zip and take the apk out then re-zip and flash over the original. Would that work OK or is there a better/easier way to accomplish this? Thanks!
[HTC Inspire 4G] NunHugger:
Use root explorer and delete it from the system/app folder.

I'm trying to find 3.0 buy somehow can only see the latest version as 2.0. Could you kindly provide a link for me?
[HTC Inspire 4G] shugga101:
I noticed that with this rom.. well this build. When I take a picture it will look like the first picture I'm posting. (Bare with me I'm posting this with my phone.)

This first image is what I see.

I've sent a picture to someone else to see if they see what I see and they do not. I took a screenshot of what I see. Thats how I got that picture. And ill answer this question now. My camera is on default settings. There aren't any photo editting or other things that would change it.

The second image is what they see obviously a regular picture.

Lastly this third picture is what I see for some apps. I noticed this graininess came from the quickpic app because I installed the 3d gallery from the absotools and the pictures don't display the graininess. But at the top of the third picture it says my phone isn't compatible.

I'm on a full wipe. fresh install. I did the inspire 4g branding the GPS configuration and the killersloths killer script. But that was after the fact I saw this. For both the grainy pictures and my phone not being compatible.

This has only appeared on the 3.0 build. Previous builds didn't show this error or graininess from pictures.

For now ill uninstall quickpic and use the 3d gallery. But if you have an answer for why it says my phone isn't compatible even though it is. Please let me know.

Thanks

[HTC Inspire 4G] Swisser:
Hey everyone. Since flashing this new version I have noticed a substantial decrease in call quality. I guess the easiest way to describe it would be a metal static quality to it, if that makes any sense. I tried re-flashing the rom, re-flashing the radio, and messing around with setting but all to avail. I've been extremely impressed with this rom and this is the first problem I've had. thanks!
[HTC Inspire 4G] cwhitney24:
Hmmm...mine has been good here. Are you using a Bluetooth or no Bluetooth? Also is this on incoming, outgoing, or both?

I got your 10 char right here
[HTC Inspire 4G] Swisser:
no Bluetooth and just incoming. at first I thought it might have to do with dsp but then I realized that I no longer have dsp installed. and I guess it could be a hardware problem but it started happenening Ruhr after flash so idk. if I don't get it fixed before I get home from work ill just revert back to strange brew and see what happens.
[HTC Inspire 4G] hungmung:
You could try flashing another kernel and see if that helps at all.

Sent through the power of Cthulhu!
[HTC Inspire 4G] hungmung:
just so you know a workaround for having Bluetooth on and stereo plugged in is to go into Bluetooth settings long press on your jawbone and choose options then uncheck media then only calls will go to the Bluetooth. You just have to make sure to shut turn it back on if you want to stream media.

I want to update on my status if anyone read my post at 1 am eastern. Anyways. I flashed the battery theme in the absolution app and it caused a boot loop. Like an idiot I didn't back up. But I did a full wipe and install around 10 am and the device isn't compatible error message is gone. And I'm back on same settings and everything. Quickpic still does the graininess but I like the 3d gallery better.

That was just an odd error I was having I guess.

---------- Post added at 02:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:23 PM ----------

Still no ads. I'm not sure what's going on on your end. DL the android sdk and extract it to a location you'll remember, open a command window(this presupposes you're on Winblows), cd to the location to where you extracted the sdk, then type adb logcat w/your phone connected and usb debugging enabled.

Now watch the output log for what site it's trying to load ads from and post back w/that info.

Alright, so I just wiped data/factory reste'd and did a wipe of the cache and Dalvik cach then I went to "install zip from sdcard" and chose Absolution3_LM.zip. The process was extremely quick, and either I messed up something or this ROM installs crazy fast, but this is all it said:

"Installing: /sdcard/Absolution3_LM.zip

Finding update package...

Opening Update package...

Installing update...

"The Collective Presents

ABSOLUTION

CM7 Mod

Install from sdcard complete."

Is that it? I haven't rebooted my phone yet because I'm a noob and am afraid that I might have done something wrong, so it is still in recovery.
[HTC Inspire 4G] gio22:

OK, so I flashed absol 3 and for some reason I have been getting huge battery drain. I tried reflashing, and and still huge amounts of drain when I open an app (pulse is the main drain.) I tried uninstalling and reinstalling pulse and still huge drain. I'm gonna try using existz kernel and see what happens, I but if that doesn't work what should I try? I just came from miui and my apps never ran at 90% of my cpu everytime I opened them.
[HTC Inspire 4G] rasroygbiv:
Instead of just reflashing, try redownloading the ROM too. Unless pulse doesn't play nice with the new base, (which no one else has reported) you may just have a bad download

If any of you want to talk to the team, we are using an app called Palringo. Just add theandroidcollective as a group. We look forward to hearing from you.
[HTC Inspire 4G] AdmnGT:
Alright, just two more questions :

1) Should I keep the default performance settings (e.g., VM heap size, compache, etc.) that you guys set, or can I change them for the better?

2) Once I have the ROM installed, do I just flash new radios and kernels in recovery or is there more to it than that?
[HTC Inspire 4G] gio22:
1) Making changes is up to you however understand that if you do, things can start messing up.

2) Flashing a radio is the most important thing to do correctly or risk bricking your phone. There is a radio thread in the Dev section for Inspire. I suggest you take time to read it thoroughly and get an understanding there before you try anything. Radios don't actually get flashed in recovery, they get flashed in the boot loader. However, if you want to flash a new kernel, that's fine. Just make sure it is a AOSP GB kernel. You will find the ones we recommend in the Absolution Tools app that is included with the ROM.
[HTC Inspire 4G] AdmnGT:
I am unable to find the kernels in Absolution Tools, unless they go by some name I don't recognize. Also, I tried to install Google Apps (I waited 5 minutes and I wasn't promoted with anything. It just went to a blank Console screen after I waited.)
[HTC Inspire 4G] rasroygbiv:
The settings are good as is, but of course you can always play with them to try to improve on it. It might be worth doing a little reading too. Radios can't be flashed in recovery, they are flashed in the bootloader. As a team, we recommend LordMod or TalonAce for the kernels.
