Hey what is the accuracy rating for our gps chip? I was using it today and with satellite view on it had to be to within just a few feet because it was amazingly fast and accurate.
[Motorola Droid 3] MrObvious:
I tried it and it didn't seem as accurate as Gingerbread. Maybe it takes time to warm up?
[Motorola Droid 3] Dri94:
I find it verys. Im not sure if the amount of sattelite usage at the time effects it.
[Motorola Droid 3] 3mvv:
Also, I hear no sound on calls (nightly 3/18). Reverted to 3/16 from hashcodes website (online cache/davlik wipe). Works again.
[Motorola Droid 3] jediman:
No what I am saying is it is very accurate and fast. Moreso compared to stock.

How can i disable the virtual softkeys under the dockbar in cm9 nightly 19.03. In version 11/03 this not installed.

[Motorola Droid 3] jon135:
Quick question again, are the keyboard backlights and hard key backlights working in this build, or is it just my phone? If its just me, does anyone know what I could do to get them working?
[Motorola Droid 3] jediman:
Might sound dumb but go into the brightness settings and disable then enable again. Used to have that problem with liberty off and on.
[Motorola Droid 3] Hashcode:
In the CM9 build you shouldn't be seeing the soft buttons. Is there a chance that your launcher has an option which got turned on?
[Motorola Droid 3] jon135:
Thanks, totaly worked.
[Motorola Droid 3] Rennert:
Go launcher not. Is the framework-res.apk and systemui.apk different to cm9 11/03? I use the changed files from 11/03. I test this with original framework and systemui

Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep - Only when plugged

in system settings:

System Settings/Wi-Fi/Advanced/Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep/Only when plugged in

after a period of inactivity Wi-Fi disconnect and activate 3G to preserve battery, that works Ok but Wi-Fi do not connect automatically when the phone resume activity.

I'm in 19/3 rom
[Motorola Droid 3] Tyfighter:
First off, Wow. This is quite the upgrade from 2.3, I'm super impressed with this rom and I've not really seen anything yet to dissuade me from using it as a daily driver in the few hours I've had it going.

Unfortunately, my wallpaper appears to be stuck static and unscrolling. I ticked the box in the settings, but no dice. Is this a known issue, or is there some kind of work around? Not super important, I guess, but its a nice frill.
[Motorola Droid 3] pm2gonzales:
I'm guessing some hardware features are not fully functional so depending on the (live) wallpaper, it may not work or may be choppy. It's really only a matter of time until hardware codecs are done.
[Motorola Droid 3] Cheezhead19:
wallpaper scrolling is a bug in trebuchet, other launchers can get it working.
[Motorola Droid 3] koftheworld:
I'm using alpha 6 with both camera fixes installed. Sometimes I experience no audio during calls and have to reboot.has this problem been addressed (assuming it was a reported issue)? Also, is it worth the update to the latest nightly?
[Motorola Droid 3] tacosrdelicioso:
I have not ran into that problem with both aokp and cm9 recent nightlies. I used to have it now I don't. :) yes...its worth it. Choose your poison..cm9 or aokp
[Motorola Droid 3] gierso:
Just had vthis problem in the 0315 one.installing 0321 to see if it work better

:( everithing wasgoing perfectly :P

Welli kinda provoked it by changing to cdma to get de meid.tosuscribe to mfn

But instead of wiping i will update
[Motorola Droid 3] 3mvv:
Problem appeared for me once with 3/16 and 3/18. Reboot helped.
[Motorola Droid 3] SithDagger:
1st thank you hashcode, this is an awesome rom, love it so much more than the stock gb that my droid 3 was on. :)

2nd for those of us crazies on tmobile/at&t, flashing this won't ruin the radio.img, but will require modifying the build.prop again, so I'm attaching a modified build.prop to this that will work with release 3/16. Just unzip, stick the build.prop in your /system/ directory on your phone, and reboot, should work great, I've rebooted mine with this exact file and it connects to tmobile every time. :D
[Motorola Droid 3] gotoman00:
having a new wifi related problem with the 3/11 build, this has happened a few times so far... the wifi obviously has a problem with constantly switching on and off, but i've recently found that sometimes it will stay switched on with no network connection and no matter how i try (settings, power widget, pull down widget, wifi manager app) i cannot disable the wifi and go back to using 3g... it just stays toggled on with no network connection
[Motorola Droid 3] seventieslord:
really looking forward to this. To me, this is the holy grail! Just need the camera working and I'm good to go. Camera's too important to me.

---------- Post added at 07:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:57 AM ----------

hmm, just noticed that there's a camera fix here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1510485

so it looks like I'd just be missing bluetooth and video camera. I MIGHT be able to live with that, short term. other ICS features that I've never had before, I can continue to not have.

(actually, post 2 makes it look like bluetooth works for calls. that's all I need it for! can someone confirm?)

if that is working, that just leaves the video camera not working.

all the "known issues" I can live with. Except maybe one. So - lastly, and most importantly, how bad are these GSM issues? How crippling are they and how frequently do they arise?
[Motorola Droid 3] koftheworld:
Camera fixes are rolled into this rom.Bluetooth is ok for me.I use it for music all the time.camcorder isn't working yet.

This is a wonderful rom that had been my daily driver since last year.
[Motorola Droid 3] danifunker:
I switched to AOKP after running CM9 nightlies for about a week due to the GSM issues. I can't comment on the bluetooth, since I sold my car I have not had many uses for it. So far running on XT860 aokp is great. No restart required for over 24 hours.
[Motorola Droid 3] seventieslord:
I take it you aren't a GSM user then?

Dang, this is so tough.... I am torn. I guess I'll just give it a try and find out myself how bad the gsm issues are.
[Motorola Droid 3] SithDagger:
Been using the 3/16 build from this page: http://blog.hash-of-codes.com/downloads/motorola-droid-3/cyanogenmod/

[Motorola Droid 3] amaroth:
I just went from CM7 to CM9 a couple days ago and to my surprise I use adobe flash way more than I realized. Is there any fix for this yet??
[Motorola Droid 3] pm2gonzales:
I am a GSM user in Canada with XT862 on AOKP (03/16), and the following (similar to Rick#2's patch) worked for me (taken from AOKP thread):

Everything is working perfectly except for some things that require HW acceleration. Blu-tooth is working well I use it in my car all the time. I personally have not encountered the "loss of audio by enabling blu-tooth" issue but others have. Make sure that if you're using Titanium backup, you can recover apps, but try to limit the data you're recovering to blutooth/wifi connections. I found that every time I recovered ALL data I kept getting phone FC's in several instances and phone would be in FC mayhem.
[Motorola Droid 3] seventieslord:
I installed CM9 after everyone eased my concerns today. It all seemed to go well. Only problem is, CM9 is behaving the exact same way CM7 did back when I tried to install it on my D2G:

---------- Post added at 07:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:44 AM ----------

OK, so now back to this part.

You said you were using CM9 and had "issues" with GSM. Sounds like it was at least working - you were able to add APNs and get data. Is that correct?

If so, do you have a backup made of this working configuation?

OR - did you have to do something special to get data on GSM?
[Motorola Droid 3] danifunker:
I had to use the XT860 patch developed by rick#2 in order to get anything to work. As I tried adding the APNs manualy with no success (after adding an APN it would not appear in the APN list).

I am using an XT860 device though, so this might not help you.
[Motorola Droid 3] nasty007:
If you have SIM card lock (PIN) then you cannot add APN manual.

Like you said, you add APN and it would not appear in the APN list.

I have same problem with stock ROM and then when i disable SIM card lock i was able to add APN and get data connection.

Same thing is with CM9 or AOKP.

Its maybe problem with phone because phones primary network is CDMA.

im using phone in Croatia on GSM network.

Disable SIM lock, reboot phone and try adding APN.

I'm fully aware of that thread, but the question keeps coming up here. As a matter of fact, I may have asked this very question already in the fixes thread...I can't remember, but I think it's already over there, yet it keeps cropping up here.
[Motorola Droid 3] JasonOT:
I don't know what you think you've read, but neither Google nor its Android partners have any intention of turning Android devices into ultra thin clients that are useless without an internet connection.

His characterization of how ICS handles storage is completely wrong. The architecture to support SD cards has not been removed simply because the GNex doesn't have an SD card slot. Hashcode is not inventing a feature, the CM9 team is not inventing a feature, and I have not invented a feature with my poking around. The GNex handles storage differently than what has been traditional in Android; this does not mean the traditional method has been eliminated from Ice Cream Sandwich. To suggest Google would do eliminate SD card functionality, and effectively make the storage of every previous phone useless, is preposterous.

The GNex sets up as a single LOCAL volume. This is why the GNex does not support USB Mass Storage, but Media Transfer Protocol instead. Existing devices with removable storage can still be set up in the traditional partitioned method. Google is in no way attempting to use cloud storage to replace application storage. Cloud storage in addition to local storage is being explored as an option for media. The existence or non-existence of expandable storage is a choice of the device manufacturer, and it's frankly kind of stupid to think Android manufacturers would move toward offering fewer features.

The "more viable option" he suggests would make it so that applications like TiBu cannot access ANY storage, regardless of it being a physical SD card or an EMMC virtual SD card. The internal storage of the GNex still appears as an SD card to apps like TiBu, just the same as the D3 did stock, and just as a few of us have been discussing in this thread.
[Motorola Droid 3] jiangkarl:
Yes I was talking about the xt862. Your phone has the same problem?
[Motorola Droid 3] Voltage Spike:
Storage Environment Variables

Not a Motorola users and I didn't read the full thread, but I'm looking into a problem and stumbled across this thread.

The built-in storage uses the environment variable EXTERNAL_STORAGE. The removable SD card(s) use the SECONDARY_STORAGE environment variable (which is a colon-separated list).

So it should read, at a minimum:

export EXTERNAL_STORAGE /mnt/sdcard
export SECONDARY_STORAGE /mnt/sdcard-ext

Since SECONDARY_STORAGE is relatively new (but apparently part of AOSP), you may need additional environment variables, but this is the way going forward.
[Motorola Droid 3] emprize:
i have the similar problem since alpha1, means i still cant use this rom until the fix come out. Simply cm9 say cant detect my sim card so cant make call or 3g data, have tried all method that everyone mention include yrs.

Don't take this post serious, its a joke lol
[Motorola Droid 3] jiangkarl:
hashcode said he might need some time to fix the GSM problem, so you might need to wait for some time if you can't find a way out.
[Motorola Droid 3] emprize:
yea i know, i just hope he mean international gsm and not only usa gsm
[Motorola Droid 3] billyhoyle13:
Alpha 2 is working just great for me and I'm on GSM in Canada. Alpha 4, however, does some strange things (SMS not working properly, losing the network, etc.), so I've reverted back for now.
[Motorola Droid 3] Dri94:
You did ask it but never got a response to two of your questions there, i overlooked them,sorry. Autostarts is working great for me. Installed it yesterday. and you already know the keyboard question now. I added the fix to the Page though. What seems to be happening is people post bugs there that are already known and expect a fix, when they dont get one they come here and still dont have a fix but they interrupt the development. Anyways i hope people will keep going to the Fixes thread so this can be kept for development talk only.
[Motorola Droid 3] xxspark89xx:
In regards to back-lighting on the keyboard and softkeys:

I was able to find that you can manually adjust the settings, i.e. through:

Changing the value set in "brightness" from '0' to '1' at the following locations

\sys\class\leds\button-backlight\brightness (for softkeys)

and

\sys\class\leds\kpd_backlight_en\brightness (for keyboard)

However, I was unable to figure out what automatically changes these values? For example, something somewhere that 'listens' for an event trigger, like unlocking or light-sensory input and in result turns the backlights on or off.

I'm led to believe that the Kernel has something to do with this feature not working?

It's so annoying when I use my phone at night, like a text message or something - and having to have to go to the home screen to toggle auto-brightness just to re-route back to the SMS app and reply.
[Motorola Droid 3] jorgonv:
you can flash this zip to install CMsettings.apk. Then you can enable the autobrightness toggle in the notification bar. It's not a fix, but it is easier to enable/disable autobrightness setting.
[Motorola Droid 3] Hashcode:
I'll check this out tonight and see how it affects the /sdcard-ext mount. Thanks!
[Motorola Droid 3] VincentDHam:
This doesn't work. I flashed it and don't have the settings.
[Motorola Droid 3] jorgonv:
It's a separate app called cyanogenmod settings. It is not part of the system settings
[Motorola Droid 3] Dri94:
I already discovered this friend, its been in the fixes thread. Im trying to find what error is causing my app not to run properly as i made it so yu can simply toggle the light on and off.
[Motorola Droid 3] will5:
Hi hashcode :)

Dont know if you fixed "Keyboard slide out will unlock phone"

But, it´s easy to fix.

Just look on the decompile framework for /res/values/bols.xml

And change:

To

Hope it helps.

------------------------

Also, about kb light turning off...

Have you checked this?

It´s in /res/values/arrays.xml

I think if you set 255 to the six entries, kb light wont turn off while screen brightness changes..
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
same.................
[Motorola Droid 3] seventieslord:
That sounds like a great idea, but when I try to disable sim card lock, it tells me I need a password... I have no idea what that would be.
[Motorola Droid 3] nasty007:
it ask you for your SIM card PIN code, when you get SIM card from operator you must get PIN and PUK code

Normally when you reboot phone, on startup does it ask you for code?
[Motorola Droid 3] seventieslord:
It does not ask me for a code on startup. But the sim lock box is checked in settings.

I am not the original purchaser of the phone, I bought it used and verizon-unlocked and it worked just fine in the stock rom. Super fast gsm data, and it held a connection like no phone ever before. Then I installed ICS and CM9, and can't get an APN to stick.

On another note - if canadian rogers users are telling me that they are having no issues with AOKP, maybe I just need to go to that for now. I assumed originally I would be losing a lot of fun options and tweake, but the AOKP screenshots of menus look pretty cool. If I "downgrade" to AOKP from CM9, what am I really missing out on?

So I decided to check out the Data Usage for this month (my billing is 2nd of month to 1st) and I found something interesting...what the hell happened to facebook? :eek: hahaha What's also interesting is that I got billed that data (even though facebook is unlimited for my account) so idk what the hell happened?

Anyways just wanted to share this hilarious info
[Motorola Droid 3] adamskub:
From what I understand is that we need Hardware Video Codecs working to get that feature to work and it currently is not working.
[Motorola Droid 3] seventieslord:
If you install CM9 and then all your apps, settings, contacts, etc, and a new nightly comes out and you flash it, does it overwrite everything or does just the CM9 nightly overwrite itself and leave all your stuff alone?
[Motorola Droid 3] slayer621:
As long as you don't wipe your data, you will retain everything. Flashing to a different ROM will leave all apps, contacts, text messages, pictures, etc. The only thing that will change is the system.
[Motorola Droid 3] seventieslord:
Holy crap - it worked!

I decided to "revert" back from CM9 to AOKP so that I could get my data working. To my surprise, I could not enter APNs in there either. I was pretty shocked.

I went here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1465297 and grabbed the "other" patch listed (I had tried the first one originally).

I went back into recovery and followed his instructions exactly. I installed CM9, wiped, mounted system, formatted system, installed the patch, and rebooted.

Three straight times I got no boot animation, just a blank backlit screen. So at this point I thought I had a brick. I went back into recovery and, with nothing to lose, flashed CM9 again.

This time it booted. I switched to GSM mode, chose a carrier, and BOOM, all my APNs were already there. Within seconds I had 3G data service.

Hope this can be helpful to someone else.
[Motorola Droid 3] lotzakritters:
I've got that many times with different roms, pulling the battery fixes it for me every time. I thought the same thing as you the first time it happend. Hope that info help someone out too. :)
[Motorola Droid 3] digitalsynner85:
facebook, if you haven't noticed in the permissions, has access to retrieve all of your texts, calls, etc, so it's a possibility that the facebook app has been sending your info, not 100% on that though

edit: just checked my FB data usage, i'm sitting on 112mb of data used lolol, i have 100% unlimited data so it won't affect me, just hilarious how much data it uses, might switch from FB back to friendcaster pro
[Motorola Droid 3] kernelguy:
Looks great

In spite of the worrying reports from some GSM users, I decided to try CM9. I flashed the Mar 16 version, wiped data and cache and booted into CM9. Right off, everything worked fine. For Data to work, I had to get to the APNs menu to enable the right APN for my carried - Tata DoCoMo. The network mode had a set of options - GSM/WCDMA was pre-selected and it worked; choosing 'GSM only' did not help.

It has been about 24 hours and everything looks and works great. Face unlock and video recording don't work ofcourse. I haven't tried Bluetooth yet. Time to change the signature again!
[Motorola Droid 3] MrObvious:
Maybe I misread but why do you get billed for the data?
[Motorola Droid 3] adamskub:
My plan includes 500MB of data usage and under that I get Social Networking for unlimited (basically Twitter & Facebook access is 'free' and doesn't count towards my data usage) but for some reason it got included in my usage. Oh well I just decided to restrict its access.
[Motorola Droid 3] redsox985:
Check your sync settings as well. If it's set to sync every 15 minutes and cache images (can FB do this, I forget), then your usage could be very high. You can limit it though just by scrolling down, as it seems you have found.
[Motorola Droid 3] meklord:
If your phone is set to sync contacts with Facebook (under settings -> accounts & sync) it will pull all their status updates to your contact list. No idea how often this happens but with mine turned off I only had 2MB of background data use for the FB app. I just turned it on to see how much that goes up.
[Motorola Droid 3] adamskub:
It was set to every 60mins

Ya I know it'll use some background for contacts and what not but I don't think this was the problem. About 150MB happened within 1 day and I didn't even use Facebook that day it pulled the data. Either way I'm not over my cap so it's all good but I'll be keeping an eye on it from now on that's for sure! :p
[Motorola Droid 3] The-Captain:
Awesome! I'm gonna go test this.
