Facebook contact sync

Facebook contact sync should work according to the First Post. But i can't get it to work. It's seems impossible.

When I click "add account" in the accounts and synchronise section and i select "facebook", the pop-up menu just closes. There is no way to add my facebook username and password.

Although the facebook app is functioning well. The option for syncing contacts is not showing up inside the facebook app settings menu.

I already tried reinstalling facebook app, but it makes no difference.

Any suggestions?

I came from Virtuous Quattro RC3, now using your rom CM9 Alpha 2.0.

When i installed CM9, i used factory+data+cache wipe and i also did an dalvik wipe, just to make shure my phone was completely blank.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] robuser007:
I found almost no differences to andromadus roms (battery% works, less options)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] D2Dchris:
my amount of apps is quite minimal (just 3 app-drawer slides). The rom seems to be slow from the beginning even after a reboot and no apps running in multitask (long-press-home) menu.

Apps like Browser, Chrome, Gmail, Facebook, Market. All run very slow.

Tomorrow I will take a look at supercharger. (First i need to sleep, I live in the European timezone)

Would an re-installation of the rom make any difference?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] D2Dchris:
Supercharger seems to have good results. Rom goes quicker now. Thanks!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jerl92:
stock cyanogen framework is not the best, to much missing tings

i tink i will go back with andromadus or maybey icecoldsandwich any idea ?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tiger2wander:
I think official CM9 framework is not stable / smooth now because of it's development process is not focus on our devices, so I think you should start work with some guys has experiences in this zone to make it better.

I've just enjoy Desire Z and will take sometime to understand how it work in the deep then will give a hand to make it better!

Strong days!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jerl92:
i'm alone, i'm the only one who's working for that rom

I will go back to andromadus framework in order to keep that rom clean and simple
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tiger2wander:
Same with me :)

Like your idea, go ahead mate!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] he3r0:
great rom, only issue I've had besides mentioned in the first post, was to get keyborad backlight running. eventually, it kicked in and works now. love it! keep up the great job.!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] johrie:
It is a bug in every ICS rom. You have to turn on the automatic brightness.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] he3r0:
ahh so that is what it was, i was just trying every option, and finally i've got it to work. but i didnt considered that a bug, rather my lack of know-how ;)

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] DJMartini:

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] robuser007:

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] EdKeys:
I'm thinking more and more that this is not a problem in the ICS Roms, but a problem with the different carriers that we all use since only some of us are experiencing this problem. I believe it has to do with the radio/rcdata that pertains to our specific carriers and also that the build.prop file might have to be changed with different values for different carriers. That's something that will prevent our ICS rom developers from working on improving and developing more features for ICS.

I'm going to start a new thread in the General section of the forum so we can deal with this issue alone and not clutter up the rom forums with the same issue time and time again. If people experiencing this issue can look up the latest RUU released by their specific carrier from here:

http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Vision

and post in this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=27195433#post27195433

I'm going to look over the radio/rcdata in these specific carrier releases and see if I can help in getting this issue resolved.

CM7.2.0 RC3 to CM9 Beta 11

Hi:

I'm too lazy to scroll through 100+ pages of replies, but here's all the kinks I found so far:

1. The volume is very inconsistent; one second it's fine and the next minute it is almost a whisper even when cranked all the way up, or the levels for music will seem to reset to a different level.

2. In Apollo, the album art/artist view never seems to stick.

3. In some web forms, auto-correct will make the cursor bounce backwards (e.g. isnt --> isn't will make the cursor bounce to before the ') or to the beginning of the form.

4. The spell check won't catch all spelling errors, or in some cases will only show when I'm in another web form.

5. I know that this is a limitation with Google, Inc, Android OS or even ICS itself, but:

5A. The contact icons come out pixelated. Is there any way to have the server retrieve a larger, higher resolution icon?

5B. Increase/modify the flick scroll speed? It seems much stiffer than GB.

5C. When contacts are displayed through Phone, is there a away to display only the name and call button like it did in GB instead of the name and all the numbers (and some numbers show up twice if they have a Facebook)?

6. When "show password" is enabled in Wi-Fi, it will often revert back to showing the "dots".

7. the "www. .com" button seems to function as a "back" button, and the 3 quick launch buttons do not work at all.

8. For Chinese contact entries, most show up correctly by phonetic order, but there are some contacts that are not in order, like 沈(Shen) is under "C" and 俞(Yu) is under "S".

Other than that, great job on making ICS available; it sure saved me the headache of anxiously waiting for the OTA (and risking losing root)!

Freshly installed this rom and already ran into a couple of problems.

#1 Tried using Titanium backup to restore apps and the text suddenly got corrupt. Restarted phone and was fine.

#2 Was using Skyvi and suddenly volume dropped really low for no reason. Restarted phone and was fine again.

Keep up this good work. Thanks.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Kubax83:
fixed.

Superwipe did it.

efs_wipe seems to be not enough some times.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] DJMartini:
Have had this problem on all of them. Think it's a light flow problem
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] spendlicek.o:
Hi, i have tried only two so far. (beta 10 and beta 11). Light flow in clearly installed beta 11 works almost fine.

So does whole Beta 11. Its fast and smooth and I like new settings of launcher. Thanks. I was never so satisfied with my "Z" like im with this great ROM. Thank you.

Touchscreen issue

So I've been having an issue where the bottom of my screen is unresponsive from time to time. What it seems to be is that the phone thinks that the virtual buttons are supposed to be there but they aren't. I've tried this rom and the Andromadus betas but both seem to have this issue. To test out my theory, is there any add on that can be patched to add the ICS virtual buttons back? Already tried updating my kernel, clearing my cache and a fresh install and none of those worked. The issue seems to come and go. I'm about to try updating my radio image. Any other ideas?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Frag1le:
Yeah i also read some articles that not every usb port supports the fast charge. Thats why phonemakers limited the current it leeches from usb ports. Usb ports can get damaged if the device pulls to much power.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] .ili.music.ili.:
I think I may have had this issue before. What I'm usually getting is my bottom buttons like home and menu become lit up but I can't press them. I tried clicking all around the screen but nothing really moves. It's like the touchscreen stops working. To fix it, I simply hit the power button to lock the screen and then turn it back on, works perfectly again.

Though I had this issue on Gingerbread as well. Dunno. Maybe I have a defective phone o.O
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] banq81991:
The bottom buttons work fine. It's the quarter inch right above it that isn't responding. And turning the screen off/on does nothing

Update: So I tried a few different kernels with no success. I tried AOKP with the on-screen buttons but that didn't do anything either. As a last resort i reinstalled CM7.1 which also did nothing. I finally just restored back my backup and the issue seems to have gone away. We'll see how long this lasts.

Hi all, i'm new to this phone, i'm triying this ROM now, beta 12, with no major issues so far... one thing I noticed is that keyboard backlight doesn't turn off when there is sufficient external light, with the original ROM it would have turn off to save battery when using on direct sunlight for example. Maybe there's an issue with the light sensor? or is it something that I must configure? anyone experiencing this too?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jordanjay29:
Hey jeri92, any way to adjust the haptic feedback here? I feel it, but it's EXTREMELY weak, especially when I'm touching the Home/Menu/Back/Search buttons. Normal phone vibration is perfectly strong, but the button feedback feels like a pushover.

camcorder issue

All the time since I've been using this rom (first beta) i have a problem with my camera. making pictures in the normal camera mode & panorama mode is no problem. But as soon as I try to record a video it stops working. It's not an error, I just get the message "unfortunately the camera has stopped working".

Does any of you experience the same or is it just me?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] masterismos:
your question is answered long time ago. PLEASE dont change the settings about the storage mode(sd card) video works only in 480p, by default is 720p. i read about 100 posts about the video rec problem.

Talkatone One way audio since beta 9

I love this rom but since beta 9 or 10 I am getting one way (outgoing only) audio on voip calls using the Talkatone App. Is this possibly a kernel issue and if so does anyone know what kernel I should use to solve this.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ccooluke:
Hey, love having ICS again on my G2. But sometimes when playing (cartoon wars 2) when I hit the home button, do something else, then return to the game, it glitches and freezes up real bad, and there aren't any other apps that I've opened. It didn't do this before, so I was wondering if it was because of ICS and is there any was to optimize gameplay performance?

Also, I've noticed the render effects are gone from CM7. Is this absent on any ICS rom? I really liked being able to change the temperature of the screen at night. Anyway to get this back?

thanks
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Frag1le:
I just flashed BETA 12 on my BETA6+kernel7.

Also flashed the newest radio .19 zip 3.1 installer and new rcdata.img

All seems to be working fine on BETA12.

I'm going to test batterylife compared to Virtuous Sense 2.0. with cpu governor on ondemand (like Virtuous OC daemon), smartass and smartassv2 and max cpu on 1024mhz

I do notice that the launcher is a bit less snappy then BETA6+kernel7.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] DJMartini:
BETA 12 works good for me =) Running V6-Supercharger (only none of the add-on's as it slows my phone down always)

I've got the WiFi calling installed with latest radio .19 and matching rils.

SetCPU with custom profiles 1024mhz.

Someone explain different in smartassV2 and smartass along with the noop/sio/bfq stuff or point me to the right direction for reading info on them?

I've got a 1500mah battery. Just idled without turning on screen the battery drains about 10% every hour! Without a lot of use I can get about 6-8hrs out of it. Using it I'm charging at least every 3-4hrs back up. At night I have Juicedefender turn it on night mode and goes 10% after 12-5am ... It wakes every hour to get background data.

Anyone else know how to save a little more on battery life?

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blk_jack:
10% while idling is extremely high. I get 1% an hour while idle and ~15-20% an hour w/ the screen on, depending on what I'm doing (games, etc).

JuiceDefender can actually be very bad if you have it constantly turning on/off your connection.

Is there an issue with bluetooth audio in the most recent build (12)? I did a full wipe + the wifi calling add-on + supercharge script/services.jar update. When I connect to bluetooth in my car the audio still comes out of the phone. Media audio is checked in the bluetooth connection settings. I am using the google music app and not the included one if that makes a difference.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tOz666:
Yes, Auto Brightness is enabled and keyboard backlight doesn't turn off.

I've also noticed that external speaker volume is low, I was using Unity Kernel on a stock rom, and that kernel tweaks a 20% increase on volume, it sounded acceptable then, can this tweak be applied to this ROM/kernel?

Took your advice and I uninstalled JuiceDefender and removed setCPU after reading the diff. in govern. Just leaving it at 1024mhz smartassV2 ...

I'm still seeing about the same drain only worse now when actually using the connection to pull data.

Any other suggestions?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Mirko935:
Try enabling and editing custom levels for buttons and keyboard. In Settings>Display>Automatic backlight tick 'Use custom' then go to 'Edit other levels'. You can also see the sensor readout there and check if it functions properly.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rand0m_insanity:
I'm sure you can. Been doing so since Beta 1, skipping a few releases, based on feedback. So far, not much problem at all. Though of course it will be best to do a ful wipe to avoid any issues.

Just keep a nandroid handy just in case things don't go smoothly. :D

[Issue] Garbled Text Rendering

I'm on Beta 12, and I'm also getting this weird text rendering issue that I saw mentioned a few pages back. Basically, text in widgets, on homescreens and in the Google Play app will get all garbled. It doesn't seem to affect text within text messages or emails. After a reboot, everything is fine again.

It may have something to do with the new ICS fonts.

Otherwise, everything is working great so far. Thanks!

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] travis:
Hello,

Great ROM - absolutely loving it! It's like having a new phone, but (there's always a "BUT")

- I'm on Beta 12 and I cannot get the phone to notify me when I have answerphone messages waiting (I might have had this problem ever since changed from official CM7).

I know my problem is probably CM related and I have googled (unsuccessfully).

Hoping someone knows a workaround.

P.S. The only problem I have with text on homescreen is the system sometimes duplicates the same widget on top of itself (which creates a garbled text appearance) this is cured by closing and re-opening launcher.

Do I still need to wipe the dalvik cache ?

performance is getting poorer and poorer after a couple of hours under normal usage...

supercharging doesn't seem to give a "super" effect

Beta 12
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Frag1le:
Here are my experiences with BETA12 compared to BETA6+kernel7.

- Lots of text rendering errors on homescreens and in menus.

- The launcher takes longer to refresh then it did with BETA6+kernel 7 exiting heavy apps.

- Less snappy

- Way more batterydrain. I don't know what's causing this but the batterydrain is just rediculous. Like 10~15% per hour doing nothing more then idling. (i tested with max cpu 1024mhz, governor ondemand and smartass(v2). I won't even speak about how much drain it has when using the phone actively.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rand0m_insanity:
For me, yep I do wipe both Dalvik Cache and the Cache partition to be sure. It won't delete any of your data anyway. It would take some time to boot up though.
