reports

Hi, first of all, congratulation for the wonderful rom, it's a really amazing job. I've installed successfully, followed all the hints and instructions, and after 2 days of use I can report as follow:

1)with wifi ON (I have wap2) seems that the phone after sleeping >15min cannot be waked up, the only way seems to remove battery and reboot.

2) camera is working fine, but video crashes.

3) cannot find a correct way to charge the battery and have a quite reliable monitor of battery level (I've installed battery widget , fully charged and then clean battery stat in recovery mode)

4) leds notification annoy a lot, I also tried to change settings in the Light Flow app, but cannot understand the behaviour of the leds, may I remove the app?

5) Market works fine, I have installed the last version, downloaded separalety and flashed, no problem

Thanks again
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] kuskro:
1. Yes, wifi is a pain in the neck because if you change the sleep wifi policy to have the wifi on continually it drains the battery and either it can never be used with the gps at the same time. To solve the problem we need a new wpa_supplicant, dhcpcd, iptables and new kernel. I solved the suspend problems and now it is a bit more stable to work with but the disconnection problem it's still there.

2. The charging process works well (I mean it is reliable) but the display controller is a kernel issue, if you remove the stats after several charging and discharging it is going to work better. Battery Widget is the best way to control it through the voltage.

3. There is not other better app for kovsky than the version of Light Flow I reached you to control the leds. You have to learn how to use it. With "Light Flow Lite" app we can disable the annoying LED notifications but before making changes over notifications leds disable the app temporarily. Set "direct mode", enable "run it in foreground" and create a shortcut on the status bar. After, to apply the changes, enable the app and turn off the screen. (Note: the app has a sleep mode that disable all leds).

Thank you for your constant efforts for the X1, kuskro. I'm thinkinh of installing android on my old X1 for fun, but I don't wat to lose mu custom WM6.1 rom. The dual-boot method you described in the first page of this topic, will allow me to keep it and use also your android rom?
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] J0hnTR:
Feregorn, NO.

It's a Nand ROM.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] Marcintosh:
Unless someone converts it into a EXT3 ROM, you can't keep both Windows Mobile and this ROM. If you want, you can try EXT3 ROMS.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] kuskro:
There are really good ext roms on this xda's forum, my favourites are the jerrytan93 ones.

This is a nand rom and it'll be developed as a nand rom. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Best.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] Feregorn:
^^No inconvenience mate! I thought as much but when I read that dual-boot method I was hopeful for a moment. Anyway no harm done, and I will follow up on those ext3 roms. A shoutout also to those people that answered my query. All the best!
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] scuarapopas:
remember, ext3 rom, don't have camera, video, gps etc..

Hi,

I tried ZeamDroid and I really liked it. I had some minor problems with it but the problem with the SIM was strange somehow.

When the phone is started there isn't any PIN request and thats why the phone is locked.

As you can see by the icon beside wifi. The problem is not that the SIM isn't recognized, he just don't ask for.

When I go in to the Settings -> Location&Sec -> disable SIM lock the phone asks for PIN and the phone is useable. When I undo the setting the phone stays useable.

I hope that someone understands what I'm trying to say xD

[XPERIA X1 Android Development] kuskro:
The mobile signal are settled on UMTS-WCDMA by default (it saves battery), so if you had sim troubles because of your provider only support UMTS-HSDPA/HSUPA, you should modify the command line ro.ril.hsxpa=0 to ro.ril.hsxpa=2 on /system/build.prop file with a file explorer like Root Explorer or Astro or ES File Explorer (free).
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] Smoover:
Hi there,

after testing IceDroid and Code Butter, I have have now flashed ZeamDroid to my X1.

My main issues in IceDroid and Code Butter were the unreliable WLAN connection and the phone occasionally not waking up from sleep state.

The WLAN situation has improved a bit with ZeamDroid when compared to IceDroid and Code Butter although the connection still drops from time to time.

[EDIT]: "Direct mode" was disabled in Light Flow. After enabling it, the phone now wakes up just fine from sleep state when charging.

The wake-up issue however, is even more prevalent in Zeamdroid than I experienced in the other builts.

I followed your post-installation instructions regarding Light Flow.

Every time the phone is connected to the power supply the four LEDs surrounding the screen are activated, that's not a problem.

But as soon as the screen turns off automatically, the phone can not be resurrected in any other way than removing the battery and booting fresh.

Thanks a lot,

Smoover
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] Smoover:
The only problem I have with ZeamDroid right now is that the screen will not lock.

I tried the "pattern", "PIN" and "password" methods in the Android settings, but after pressing the power button or waiting for the screen to turn off, no security feature awaits me when activating the screen again.

I tried the "Ripple Lock" app that comes with the built but that does not seem to have security features to keep unwanted users out.

Did I miss something?

Yours truly,

Smoover
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] kuskro:
No, you didn't miss anything. I modified the IceDroid framework to disable all those CM's stuff (e.g: lockscreen) that gave problems. So, ripple lock is a bias solution.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] Smoover:
Is the lock screen feature part of CM? I would really like to protect the phone by PIN even after a restart. As far as I can see, any lock screen app from Play only acts as an additional layer before the built-in Android security feature.

Best regards,

Smoover
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] kuskro:
On Settings, set "direct mode", enable "run it in foreground", create a shortcut on the status bar. Then, on Notifications, enable all notifications and disable all the notifications light. After, to apply the changes, enable the app and turn off the screen.
[XPERIA X1 Android Development] kuskro:
Modify on your build.prop the ro.ril.hsdpa.category=15

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brorave:
Alright. My Inc is having some problems. Here are some facts

Bought on December 23, 2010

Rooted it somewhere in January

Ran CM6 till CM7 came out

Here's what's was going down after I flashed to CM7

Flash CM7

Every 15 minutes my google maps app will randomly crash. No matter what I'm doing a "GOOGLE MAPS HAS STOPPED RESPONDING" sign will appear.

Random reboots in the middle of doing nothing

Re-flashed to stock, then back to CM7 and everything seemed okay... until a few days ago

Suddenly while browsing the internet EVERYTHING CRASHES. EVERYTHING.

The browser, music, messaging, screenshot it, even google frameworks.

wtfman.jpg

reboot my phone, this occurs again after a few hours.

Next day it happens again. Now, my phone got stuck in a boot-loop

So I flash back to CM6. Now here's my phone's symptoms.

Home button won't work. It vibrates on press, but doesn't do anything.

Search button won't work

No lock screen will ever come up. Ever. It's set, but it never appears.

I cannot receive calls. People will call me, and it will immediately show up in my call log, but the answer screen simply doesn't show up.

What did I do wrong? How do I fix this?

Alternatively, how can I flash back to stock and make it look like I never rooted it? I believe I'm still within my warranty.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jackbtha1:
What hboot and radio are u on? I know if your not using a gingerbread radio with cm7 it likes to go all wonky at times. I would wipe everything try a fresh install of cm7 and flash a gingerbread radio as well.

Sent from my Droid Incredible
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] POQbum:
sounds like you didn't wipe everything correctly. Did you wipe cache, devcache (probably spelled that wrong), data, datadata? Also did you restore apps through TI backup or any other backup app?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brorave:
hboot 0.92.0000

radio-2.15.00.07.28

I did not wipe errything the first few flashes. But my last flash I wiped my cache, data, etc.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jackbtha1:
Try flashing the 7.07 Gingerbread radio, get it here http://pvillecomp.com/?page_id=18 and see if that helps.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brorave:
Are there any alternatives to that?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] puertorican:
Try flashing another ROM and see what happens. Make sure you wipe cache, dalvik, format system, and boot. Nandroid before you attempt that. Give Joelz Prime Xl 3d a try.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] refthemc:
First update that old Froyo radio with the new stock not leaked and totally safe because Verizon officially released it radio that jackbtha1 suggested.

Second, boot into recovery and run "fix permissions." That option always helps me when my phone decides to FC everything. It has helped me so that I run it after every rom flash now :)

[Captivate General] MadGoat:
Is there a way to "Hack" the throttling service on roms? I Noticed my service has gone to crap lately.

I did some digging around and found out about this "thottle.src" (or something) that is running on my phone. It links to a sort of settings file in /data/system/throttle.

I've played with removing and deleting this sort of "throttling key" file and have realized it is honestly limiting my down speed (upload is not effected in my tests).

If I delete it and do a speed test real quick, I can get around 3.5mbps before this service re-downloads this file.

After this file appears again, I'm limited to 0.3mbps... Upload however is never effected and is a solid 1.5mbps.

It seems there is a lot of back and forth with this on the forums/net. Some people say its not possible for carriers to limit data speeds via the client handset. Others are just as curious as I am, or have seen the throttling themselves as I have.

With everything this community is about... I would have for sure thought this would have caused a explosion by now?

So Do we understand this service in its entirety yet? Can we get rid of it? Is it something that can be baked into roms?

I personally want this throttling sh-tuff to pound sand.
[Captivate General] MadGoat:
I found this method to getting rid of the throttling mess:

http://www.androidpolice.com/2010/1...riers-data-throttling-on-your-android-device/

Looks as though there are theme issues, and wireless network settings no longer work afterwards...

This is over a year ago?! And the community hasn't beat this to the ground yet?
[Captivate General] MadGoat:
Well I was successful in removing the throttling service from my cm7 181 nightly...

AND WHAT DO YA KNOW!?!

I'm getting my old speed again... ~2-3mbps down and that constant 1.5mbps up.

So its not a myth,

No I didn't have a Icon in my status bar informing me that i was being throttled,

Yes it would continually re-download some strange key file.

and now, with nothing else changed but removing the throttling service... I'm back up to speed.

Just an FYI if anyone in the future end up in the boat I just climbed out of...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CJSnet:
If you've received the OTA update only, please comment.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ferris2375:
Yes it does. You will need to re-root then re-flash CWM
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CJSnet:
And if I'm just using the stock ROM, just rooted?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jmbillings:
It will still remove root, so you just need to re-root afterwards. You won't lose any data though as it doesn't re-lock fastboot or anything. Literally took 2 minutes.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CJSnet:
Is there a guide to rerooting without unlocking fastboot, as I assume this differs from the original rooting process for this phone using the modified img and bat file?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KiNG OMaR:
Unfortunately no, you'll need the bootloader unlocked for the superboot method until there is a better root solution available :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CJSnet:
What I meant is that this OTA does not lock the bootloader. The bootloader is therefore unlocked. All I'm asking for is a step-by-step guide to rerooting from that state, with it unlocked.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CJSnet:
Hmm this is weird. I was prompted to install the OTA fix. I just have the stock Google ROM, rooted and that's it. It rebooted, showed the wireframe hexagon animation for a second, and went to an android with a /!\ exclamation mark. I had to remove the battery.

Now I can't update and it has disappeared from the update page in phone settings. Check for update doesn't bring it back.

Is there a place to download the update patch?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ferris2375:
Same thing happened to mine. I just found a zip of the update here and flashed it via CWM. You will still need to re-root and re-flash CWM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CJSnet:
And here it is! Just rename to update.zip and place in the SD Card root folder, then reboot into recovery and install update.zip:

Hi guys, i need to learn something.

I use Bigxie [ROM] [OTA] [GSM] Android 4.2.2 JDQ39: Rooted Busybox Deodexed

and want to update 4.3 with similar;

Fireb33 [ROM] [JB] [JWR66Y] Galaxy Nexus 4.3 stock (deodexed, rooted, busybox)

So do I need to vipe anything or just download and flash via Twrp?

And better for me is: can i just download an "update.zip" (for same root-busybox-deodexed stock rom) instead a huge rom file?

Will i lose any data with any way?

Useful General Information Regarding 2G and 3G for either CDMA or GSM modes

For CDMA Networks there are Only three Modes Controlling CMDA 2G or 3G:

CDMA only CDMA phone force Only 2G Mobile data. if 2G signal is too low you get no Signal.

EvDo only CDMA phone force Only 3G Mobile data. if 3G signal is too low you get no Signal

CDMA auto (PRL) CDMA phone can use both 2G and 3G Mobile data . if signal strength is low then 2G is favored more.

Please see Automatic Mode ( GSM/CDMA auto (PRL)

TWO GSM Modes that include the word "CDMA ",But They Do Not Relate to CDMA Networks :

WCDMA preferred GSM phone can use both 2G and 3G Mobile Data . if signal strength is low 3G is Preferred .

WCDMA only GSM phone forces only 3G Mobile Data . if 3G signal is too low you get no Signal .

Other GSM Modes :

GSM only GSM phone forces only 2G Mobile Data . if 2G signal is too low you get no Signal .

GSM auto (PRL) GSM phone can use both 2G and 3G data Mobile Data . if signal strength is low 2G is Preferred

Automatic Mode :

GSM/CDMA auto (PRL) - phones equipped with GSM and CDMA .( Not Sure ) phone attempt to stay connected to the Mobile Data type that works the best ( through choosing the CDMA network directly or GSM Roaming networks , not sure ) ??????.

Auto PRL ( Preferred Roaming List ) :

this list should be updated frequently , help connect to 3G ? . to get update ( through *228 or through Dialing ##778 , Then Select Prl then Update . i don't have much Knowledge about the following , But some who change Carrier would download PRL suitable for the New Carrier and replace the existing . through using certain Software ( Powerful Software that Can damage Your phone if you Don't know what you are doing ) , and is that required or Not . for myself i would not do it unless it is a Must.

Hope help testing and adjusting setting for 2g,3G , i myself was confused about some of those setting Especially WCDMA Preferred

You can reach All the above Options through Phone Information menu ( called also testing menu ) by dialing *#*#4636#*#*
​

I appreciate if you hit thanks Button , if you found this Post useful
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] adammwhiles:
While working for Verizon I know that *228 option 2 is the one you select to update just the PRL. When updating the PRL it just ensures your phone has been updated on the network with latest additions to towers and such. Possibly can improve your signal strength in areas where improvements or new towers have been added. This also can help when you travel in extended network where Verizon has a roaming agreement. It is recommended to do so atleast 1 time every 3 months.

Choosing option 1 from the menu is for when you are changing devices(esn's) on your number. This will program the proper MDN and MIN as well as SID into the phone so it can work on your number and the Verizon network. Sometimes doing option 1 can resolve issues with your device as well, but in rare cases.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] m_srayi:
so there is no way can force the htinc2 to work with h or 3g
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] trkaaa:
yes you can force 3G as follows ( All mentioned in my above Post ) :

for CDMA ( if you want to use CDMA network Only )

EvDo only CDMA phone force Only 3G Mobile data. if 3G signal is too low you get no Signal

For GSM ( if you want to use GSM networks only )

WCDMA only GSM phone forces only 3G Mobile Data . if 3G signal is too low you get no Signal .

if you don't want to force 3G only , But

make 3G Preferred when Both 2G and 3G are available

:

for CDMA ( if you want to use CDMA network Only ) :

CDMA auto (PRL) CDMA phone can use both 2G and 3G Mobile data . if signal strength is low then 2G is favored more.

For GSM ( if you want to use GSM networks only ) :

WCDMA preferred GSM phone can use both 2G and 3G Mobile Data . if signal strength is low 3G is Preferred .

For Both ( Auto ) :

GSM/CDMA auto (PRL) - phone attempt to stay connected to the Mobile Data type that works the best

You can reach All the above Options through Phone Information menu ( called also testing menu ) by dialing *#*#4636#*#*

i guess it works like this but not sure ,

if you choose EvDo onlythe phone will force the connection to Verizon Wireless 3G only , it will not try to use the sim Card to use the roaming GSM networks !!!

if you moved to another GSM carrier ,then you have only GSM ( No CDMA ) , then if you used WCDMA only the phone will only connect to the 3G provided by this Carrier

Hello all

I've had a bit of a search and can't see my questions being answered, if they have sorry point me to the posts.:o

1: Are there any obvious drawbacks to updating using OTA rather than the other ways? The phone is still in warranty and I know 3rd party builds may invalidate it.

2: If I update to Ginger bread OTA do i need to unroot froyo first?

3: After update can I still root the phone and use a Webtop hack

I think that's about it.

Thanks for any help

Two questions:

1) how do one add additional language to the android keyboard (default GB 2.3 comes with many more languages)

2) where do one get these languages? (I'm looking for russian). I have CWM backup from Atrix2 which had that language, can I extract it?

P.S.

Just so we are on the same page, I'm talking about Settings -> Language and keyboard -> Android keyboard -> Input languages

Box.net is giving away 50Gb to people with LG android devices.

I edited my xoom build.prop with root explorer, rebooted, installed box from the market, and signed in.

Here are the values i edited

ro.product.model=VS910 4G

ro.product.manufacturer=LGE

It might be wise to make a nandroid.

Once you have your 50GB for life feel free to restore you build.prop to its original state. The 50GB won't evaporate.

Easier method is to just go down to your local VZW (or other wireless store that uses live devices) and log in on one of the demo devices. Might as well login to dropbox on a Sense 3.5 device while you are there too and get your extra 3GB storage there also...
