I was modifying MotoGalery and com.motorola.aui so it can use the CM7 MediaProvider. Try to use the CM7 MediaProvider (as i remember the stock mediaprovider has "set mode", which i replaced with provided in CM7 "release" one :)

about sdcard issues, guys, try to "comment" all the init.d scripts about sdcard (+ the alignment optimization one)

edit:

for a fast testing you can try

MediaGalery and com.motorola.aui.jar from here

https://github.com/CyanogenModXT720...mmit/ed07348b1d76f8374bd7ba2637e190497d1ba051

and MEdiaProvider from the CM7 (which you rebased as this rom)

No luck either, I tried all possible methods.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] pables123:
We have desame problem and have no luck using it so i use fj cm7.always stock while loading sd card or in boot animation.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] mchlbenner:
Issues found on this rom

1. No eqs work on this rom.

You want to replace music apk it depends on your were from.

I did not remove any system apps no need to.

I recommend the ram manager pro.

Overall very strong rom.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] hhcat:
Indeed! I found those two variables do not quote anywhere in the code. In the function "adjustVolumeUpOrDown(...)" and "initVolumeView(...)", they both use const value "0xe" for Volume Level and "0x5" for volume step. By modifying those values, the issue was solved.:D
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] hhcat:
This SDCard error appeared on title bar is actually caused by SystemUI.apk, which was said to from certain Samsung ROM. The apk provide a number of toggles but also bring SDCard error messages. You could replace SystemUi.apk with the one in Kang's ROM to solve this issue.

Attached the file.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] pables123:
How to install it.can u make direction how?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] eSu.Matix:
You need to run this ROM to be able to install it... I will just wait till hhcat with Mio,fj and peshovec fix it and make an update or recovery.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] LibertyMonger:
I tried this and lost my status bar.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] hhcat:
No. As I remembered "setMode" was implemented in libmedia_jni.so and libmedia.so in 2.2 stocked ROM. The main issue of CM7 mediaprovide.apk is it doesn't have photo/video's tag information and comments. So when you view the photo/video in Gallery, and try to view the detail infromation or to add tag/comments for the photo/video, the process crash.

On the other hand, 2.2 mediaprovider also need to modify to port in CM7. The direct copy to CM7 will see the error log like " no column compiled when trying to update/insert the media cotent".

And by comparision, finally I found it is easier to fix issue in 2.2 mediaprovider, only add one line of code in update() and insert() function. The fixed code is like "localcontent.remove("compiled")".
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] LibertyMonger:
Hi hhcat thank you for sharing your ROM bud I am really liking it. I was wondering if it supports ext3 and ext4 and apps2sd?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] pables123:
Have you flashed this rom successfully?im so eager to try this rom but i have no successful flash so its so frustrating for me.any clue how to fix this always have a bootloop or stuck in boot animation. Im so sad
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] hhcat:
That is expected issue. Did the status bar appear agian after reboot?

If no, then I need to check agian.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] hhcat:
Support ext3 and app2sd, ext4 is not support in this version.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] pables123:
Did u fix the sd card problem?i always get stuck when flashing it in nandroid
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] secret_tidus:
my phone autoswitch off when into homescreen
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] fox_die:
great rom ! the boot screen animation made me lol .. like turning on a PC.

but there is one serious problem... why I can't install any apps !

whenever I try to install any apps, either from market or apk files in sd card, the phone always does a fast reboot. Do I need to replace SystemUI too ?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] mchlbenner:
When flashing this Rom whipe all data for and after just to make sure.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] xtwister6:
what kind of battery life are you guys getting with this rom?

I'm getting 2-3 days on Bravo and don't want to back to a day of battery
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] eSu.Matix:
OK. So today I tried to flash this ROM again and I get a little more creative due to the face that the last time I've tried I haven't slept for like two days.

So basiclly this is how I manage to run this ROM and SD card without problem.

1. Flash any SBF.

2. Update to any JD CM7(I did it with Ice and fire one).

3. Delete everything → Wipe cache/data/dalvik.

4. Install this ROM true OR receovery.

5. Delete only dalvik and cache. DON'T DELETE(wipe) THE DATA(factory reset).

krishn, pables123 can try it and tell me if it works for them.

Good luck gentlemen!

---------- Post added at 01:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:37 AM ----------

I think it may work even without going true JD CM7, only by skipping wipe data after recovery but I'm not willing to try it right now cause I'm kinda busy ....
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] LibertyMonger:
I been having trouble getting Bravo flashed successfully too, that is why I tried this. I keep getting SOD with Bravo and have to do battery pulls. It is because of the issue of reading the sdcard. The XT720 is so difficult to get a good flash it seems compared to my Nexus or my moms Huawei Ascend X, hers was super easy lol. But I haven't really had any problems with this one except for the usb bug. I am gonna fool with it some more tonight. It's definitely got potential, not to take anything away from the other ROM's I just wanted to give this one a whirl. I am fixing my friends XT up for her and I need stability. Bravo just isn't working for me now for some strange reason.

Ps... I been having a heck of a time with my sdcards, transferring files. I found that booting into recovery and connecting to usb there to transfer the files worked best for me. Maybe try that with the ROM to make sure it doesn't get corrupted. Just a wild idea lol.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] pables123:
can i flash this using update in aor or the nandroid and restore it?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] fox_die:
wiped data again, and the problem still persists. It doesn't let me install any apps, always do a fast reboot when hitting Install button for some strange reasons.

Seem to be just me having this problem, eh. :(

(coming from UK default rom, wiping all data before and after do a Nandroid to install this rom)

edit: uhm, seem to be old data app folders in my sdcard that lead to this issue... I'll try deleting them and let you know
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] kousik:
Yes that can be a reason. The permissions/owners of the old data app may not be correct. Also check if your app directory is writable (by system user).
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] LibertyMonger:
I lost home key function and the usb connection is better but still acting funny.

PS.. I think I lost some of the extended power menu as well

Does anyone have an ICS keyboard or something better I can push through system? I deleted the one that came with the ROM now I am having a heck of a time replacing it.

***Don't seem to be too much wrong now, there is still a hiccup when connecting USB, sometimes it works, sometimes it will say cannot connect for memory access or charge and also I get an occasional android.something.media quit working or something, can't recall exactly. And the Home key not working. That's about it. That I can see for now, I still need to fix the radio volume too.

***GPS works great except it uses the bluetooth icon in the status bar. Another thing that works that we never had I don't think is the screenshot.

This ROM runs wonderfully great! Lol
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Zachary57:
You mean that sdcard error is due to flash ?

Do you have them when you flash sbf too ?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] hhcat:
Did you remove provision.apk in /system/app? Removing this apk would cause Home key issue.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] fox_die:
I managed to install Titanium backup via ADB. Despite that, I still can't install apps by market or restore apps with TB and get a reboot every time.

update: I figured out what's causing the reboot, after a few factory resets. That's my sd card. ah, that doesn't mean my sd got damaged or something, it's still working properly. The problem starts when I plug my sd card in and continues to exist after that, and the only way to fix is doing a factory reset. Before inserting my sd card, I can install apps normally, adb, and from market. So basically I'm running without a sd card now :|

only thing I notice that I get the sd card error too in the notification: android.process.media.and I replaced the chinese music player with MiuiV3.apk but still get the same FC from com.android.mediaprovider

should I reformat the sd card and delete the app partition (fat32) ?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] pables123:
Is there a way to flash this rom without bootloop?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] LibertyMonger:
I have flashed it a few times now been running it for 3 days and haven't had a single bootloop or forceclose. Not sure what the heck is going on lol. I had the USB issue and now homekey issue

I really don't think so, all I did was replace SystemUI.apk. Nope Just checked, it is still there

***Anybody have the apk for theme chooser? I can't find it anywhere

---------- Post added at 11:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:02 AM ----------

No the sdcard error is not due to flash, I been having a lot of problems with my sdcards reading and writing, they keep failing and I have to keep repairing them. I had this issue with Bravo a while back, the XT isn't very friendly with my sdcards. So I figure most of the bootlloops and forcecloses and SOD's are caused by this. Also may be a cause of not getting a good solid flash. At least for me anyway. I have zero problems with my moms Huawei Ascend X using the same sdcards.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] pables123:
fail again sad mode
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] mchlbenner:
Youtube crashes or reboots the same on flashplayer.

All else works great

Thanks

The problem the vessel is set too low.

Overclock 800 no reboots
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] pables123:
can u give me please an instruction to restore this rom successfully? im always stuck in boot animation and reboots eventually please help thnx
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] LibertyMonger:
There really isn't any special instructions, just flash it like you should with all ROM's. RSD SBF file, root it, setup OpenRecovery and after you install Open Recovery copy over the OR file with Mioze7Ae's special OR file and boot into OR, wipe all, flash the ROM and wipe everything again, Try this though, after flashing, power off before reboot and remove the battery for 2 minutes. Then power on. It probably won't help lol, just seen it somewhere. Good luck! It is still running great for me! Wish someone could help me with themechooser though.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] bagongs:
here is a backup of the theme chooser app. restore via titanium backup (if it works), otherwise extract the apk that you'll find inside ;)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Zachary57:
@hhcat

Hi,

Can you post modded framwork and apk that enable hd record ?

Thank you
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] fox_die:
finally I've solved reboot issue.

now I try to install Calendar. Get both Calendar.apk and calendarprovider.apk here, and put them in /system/app

I've already changed the user id in /data/system/packages.xml

however, when I try to add new event (using Go calendar widget) I only get an popup "no calendar. You have no calendar" . So how can I make it work? do I need to reinstall Google apps?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Knoedelkopf:
same here.. only bootloop :/

did re-sbf then nandroid and wipe everything.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] fox_die:
try removing sd card and boot without one? I used to have problem with it.. reboot every time installing apps...
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] LibertyMonger:
It worked thanks a bunch Bud!
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] eSu.Matix:
How did you solved it? Can you share your wisdom? Please. :)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] nrgaway:
I have not tried installing this ROM yet, but in the past some ROMs or features would not work correctly since my SD Card had errors. It seems often it will have errors (multiple cards as well).

So try to fix errors in aor first, for both FAT32 and ext partitions (if you have both) BEFORE wiping and installing. This always helped for me; maybe it will for you as well.

Also if you still have problems, does it help if you install ROM on battery compared to being plugged in to charger?

Also did you try with SIM removed when installing?

All of these things have happened to me in past and were fixed by doing above. Now I always fix sdcard first, remove SIM and do not have charger plugged in when installing, I only ever plug it in when its totally done installing and I then shutdown phone to insert SIM.

I hope this offers a solution and help
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] SickBeast:
I just wanted to mention that this ROM nearly bricked my phone. There are obviously some bugs that still need to be worked out.

It crashed while I was flashing it, and then my phone boot looped and it was a PITA to get into the bootloader to revert to stock.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] LibertyMonger:
Still having no performance issues. I don't understand all the trouble you all are having. Very weird. Sorry if anyone feels misled but I just reported my experience. My XT hasn't ran this nice and smooth and consistent for quite a while.

***I haven't fixed my homekey yet, was hoping hhcat was gonna release an update. Not sure how to fix it.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] SickBeast:
I tried again flashing from the stock ROM and it got stuck in a boot loop.

This ROM needs some work before I'm willing to take another chance on it.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] space4ace:
Just like SickBeast, pables123 and a few others, I cannot get this rom to boot; I only get a bootloop.

Anything else we should try? :confused:
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ndempist:
1. fresh sbf, instal OR, root it, paste Mz OR, boot into OR, wipe all, restore this rom, wipe all again, reboot then bootloop.

2. then i tried fresh sbf, instal OR, root it, paste Mz OR, boot into OR, no wipe , restore rom, wipe all, reboot then bootloop.

3rd attemp fresh sbf, instal OR, root it, paste Mz OR, boot into OR, wipe all, restore rom, no wipe, reboot then bootloop.

4th fresh sbf, instal OR, root it, paste Mz OR, boot into OR, no wipe, restore rom, no wipe, reboot then bootloop again.

5th fresh sbf, instal OR, root it, paste Mz OR, boot into OR, wipe all, restore this rom, wipe all again, reboot then bootloop, turn off, remove sd card, turn on again still bootloop. :D

sometimes i saw lockscreen, try unlock it then bootlooop :D
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] LibertyMonger:
WOW This is sooo weird fellers I had great luck my first time! Lol. It's making me look like an Arsehole huh? Hahaha Sorry guys I really don't know what to say. Not even sure there will be any support for this ROM anyway.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ndempist:
nope its okay :D glad if this rom work for you mate. :)

sometime every XT720 is not identically "same".

=======

i just remember, i'm not using mod sbf maybe thats the different afterall
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] space4ace:
I am using xt720mod sbf and still all I see are bootloops. :confused:
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] ndempist:
then it must be xxxx factor lol ...:D

was joking sorry..

im back to khals v4 till this rom fixed ...
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] LibertyMonger:
Maybe you all are getting a corrupted file. Maybe tomorrow I will up my copy see what happens. going to bed now.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] space4ace:
Here's a quote from a thread in the general forum:

So I guess we're back to square one.

I was thinking that maybe, for some of us, installing from a backup of system in nandroid is not enough. Maybe something else needs to be replaced also. :eek:
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] eSu.Matix:
I'm passing the bootloop but the more surprisingly, when you boot this ROM you don't actually go true wizard where you set your account, time, etc. but you start directly with GoUglyLauncher.... Then after some reboots it starts to tell you that your SD card is ****ed up. So annoying...

---------- Post added at 03:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:39 PM ----------

@Liberty What was the SBF you flashed before installing this ROM? Anyone tried it with Motoroi SBF plus included fix?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] LibertyMonger:
I used the CBW SBF. Here was the fix for the SDCard error
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] mchlbenner:
hi

I found this v4 update.

it will fix sdcard error and gives it a regular cm7 look.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Inge2000:
Hi is there any screenshot for this rom ??? is this rom in anyway better than other roms ???

Greetz :D
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] TIMZOZO:
It's all based on opinion. It's a very good Ginger but the keyboard was far from user friendly.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] space4ace:
My latest trials (and errors) :D :

I tried flashing different sbf (CBW, UK, French, xt720mod) and still getting the bootloop.

I tried the v4 update (didn't think it would change anything but, you never know). It didn't change anything!!! :p

I will try the korean fix ( just to see).

I'm at a lost to understand why it works for some people and don't for others.

I'll report back if I figure anything good (or bad!). :eek:
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] LibertyMonger:
Did anyone try re-downloading the file? Whats a good file site to use nowadays since the 4th reich is shutting everything down? I will upload mine...
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] mchlbenner:
You can find this file in flfalcon archive files.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] space4ace:
I need an expert's opinion on this.

As you might know already, I keep getting bootloops when running this rom. I sometimes see the lock screen and I even was able to unlock once and open the drawer before it rebooted again, and then bootloop etc. This only happens if I remove the sdcard and then boot. With the sdcard in... Nothing but bootloops. I tried 3 sdcards, same results. I repaired the sdcards too.

Can any other user make a nandroid back up of system.img and maybe boot.img or anything that could make me boot this and upload it as a trial? I don't want a full backup that includes your data or anything like that.

Does my request make any sense or maybe it just doesn't work that way? :confused:

In case you didn't figure this out yet; I'm a newbie! But I know how to flash sbf, install rom, updates, backup and restore.

Let me know what I could try next. I'm fresh out of ideas! Except for using a hammer... On my head, not the phone. I love that phone! :D

[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
From what I can tell this is based on fjfalcon's 2011-11-30 build and there are actually very, very minimal changes to the core framework (very similar to what we had been discussing in the other thread). I think the frameworks edits are already just about as minimal as possible.

$ diff -qr falcon/framework system/framework | sort
Files falcon/framework/android.policy.jar and system/framework/android.policy.jar differ
Files falcon/framework/com.google.android.maps.jar and system/framework/com.google.android.maps.jar differ
Files falcon/framework/framework.jar and system/framework/framework.jar differ
Files falcon/framework/framework-res.apk and system/framework/framework-res.apk differ
Only in system/framework: com.motorola.android.camera.jar
Only in system/framework: com.motorola.android.mediasync.jar
Only in system/framework: com.motorola.aui.jar

Comparing the smali of android.policy.jar and framework.jar, this is what I find*:

Files falcon/framework/android.policy/com/android/internal/policy/impl/PhoneWindow.smali and system/framework/android.policy/com/android/internal/policy/impl/PhoneWindow.smali differ
Files falcon/framework/framework/android/hardware/Camera$EventHandler.smali and system/framework/framework/android/hardware/Camera$EventHandler.smali differ
Only in system/framework/framework/android/hardware: Camera$FaceDetectCallback.smali
Files falcon/framework/framework/android/hardware/Camera.smali and system/framework/framework/android/hardware/Camera.smali differ

Files falcon/framework/framework/com/android/internal/R$id.smali and system/framework/framework/com/android/internal/R$id.smali differ
Files falcon/framework/framework/com/android/internal/telephony/gsm/SmsMessage.smali and system/framework/framework/com/android/internal/telephony/gsm/SmsMessage.smali differ

Most of the changes are minor and should be easy/harmless to reverse to java and incorporate in the tree. The most intensive edit is to add the face detection callback.

Caveat: I have not even tried to install this ROM. I trust that it works for somebody, somewhere.

* To simplify the comparison, I preprocessed the baksmali of fjfalcon's 20111130 framework.jar and android.policy.jar using this:

#!/bin/bash

find falcon -type f -name \*.smali | while read x ; do
grep -v '\.line ' $x \
| grep -v '\.parameter' \
| grep -v '\.prologue' \
| grep -v '\.local ' \
| grep -v '\.end local ' \
| grep -v '\.restart local ' \
> tmp
mv tmp $x

about bootloop

I had successfully updated from kang 7.2 to this ROM with no boot loops (switched 3/4 times between both roms).

But after i copied the framework-res file into system/framework attached in the first post,the screen went black and now i am also getting boot loops from lock-screen.After restoring my backup while Switching back to this rom again its getting bootloops even after wiping all(cache,userdata).
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] peshovec:
I was applying almost same filters in meld

but honestly, did not find find time to check more about them... so still .prlogue .line etc are unknown to me

trying to slide the above onscreen
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] LibertyMonger:
This ROM ran super great and smooth for me, it was a 2.3 ROM with a 2.1 stock feel if you know what I mean. It ran smooth and consistent with no FC's, blackouts or bootloops. I do not know any of the techy type stuff so all I can do is report experience lol.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
I didn't mean to imply that it doesn't work or that I don't expect it to work. Only that I haven't had time to flash it myself. I've lost my second XT720 that I used for experiments so it's a lot more of a hurdle than it had been for a while. That's all.

LM, if it worked on your phone, it's got to be pretty solid. :p
