I have tried so many roms, so many times. I cannot for the life of me find a good rom for every day use that can use my data. Its very upsetting so Im looking for help. I even changed the BB to new so I could use CM7/9 roms that are New BB only but my data never works.

What can I do?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ccdreadcc:
flash old baseband and use a old baseband rom....
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Herox:
Is that really the only option? I rather not go back to a rom below 2.3.7. I cannot even download any roms that are not still being worked on as the download links are all mostly dead.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ccdreadcc:
its a known problem that in new baseband data doesnt work for US circle

maybe try the old baseband fix.. search for it..
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Herox:
Have tried. It causes roms to glitch out. I tried the funny sim fix and it makes some not boot and others unable to use gsm period.Thats the whole reason I am trying to find a way around it. Oh well. Any suggestion of an Old BB rom to use?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ccdreadcc:
im still using old baseband and cosmic xperia by trettet..

im very happy with its performance and battery ;)

[Optimus One, P500, V General] Herox:
Well the last good rom I used was megatron v1 and I used it for quite some time. I'm putting it back on old BB and then going to install a new bb rom and use the fix and see if that works. I rather deal with slightly glitchy than nothing.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UnitedOceanic:
Hi there,

i'm planing to take a look at the whole android programing, moding thing.

i fooled around with some easy apk mods, and themes but i want to take a bit deeper. i found many tutorials how to setup a dev environment. but none of them could tell me what system is better/easier to use.

my system is a lenovo notebook with enough power and ram to run ubuntu as host and xp as client with virtualbox. but my xp, well windows days in general are long gone.

what setup can you recommend?

ubuntu host

>xp client

>ubuntu client

>mint client

and what about wine/mono for those small community "windows only" tools?

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] yogodo:
Hi all!

My wifi is not working at all on my xperia neo mt15i. In wi-fi settings it just says "Error". Trying to enable wifi: "Turning on ..." flashes by and then "Error".

Here is the story:

It used to work of course. Until yesterday. A few days ago I reverted from 4.0.2.A.0.62 to 4.0.2.A.43 (?) and rooted it. Then I upgraded to 62 OTA. This was of course to get root. No problems here, wifi working.

Then, yesterday I wanted to test ICS. So I unlocked the bootloader with instructions from sonyericsson using fastboot in linux. Went smooth and I confirmed the unlock. Flashed an ICS kernel with fastboot. Went into recovery, wiped all, did an update with a zip, rebooted. But here I got stuck on SONY logo at boot.

So I went into CWM recovery and did a recovery to the backup I made before unlocking bootloader. After booting everything looked good, but I did not check wifi. Went to sleep and this morning I realized that I had lost wifi. Could not get it to work at all.

So I tried once more to do recovery of same backup. This time I wiped caches, factory reset and wiped dalvik-cache before recover backup. After boot, same problem with wifi.

So, what do I do now? I have searched forums but have no clue. Please help!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] yogodo:
I had a look in logcat and found this:

E/WifiService( 268): Failed to load Wi-Fi driver.

Is there a mismatch between kernel and wifi-driver? How come, since I did a recovery I would suppose both kernel and all drivers would be recovered and match?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
Which ICS you used, since you say you flashed zip? And stock one is in img.

Is it possible that you didn't wipe system partition before flashing zip? I made same mistake yesterday, and got to stuck on sony screen :) Even though I didn't move to some different rom, but the same, so it's strange, but never mind.

Then you say you went back to your backup(.62 ?), did you also flash your old kernel?

So what kernel do you have now on your phone? Stock?

---------- Post added at 11:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:32 AM ----------

Ah, there's problem :) kernel isn't contained in backup made from CWM. You need to flash it trough fastboot.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] yogodo:
First I followed this guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1468866, to get root and then go to 4.0.2.A.0.62.

Then for ICS I followed this guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1517794.

So the nandroid backup does not contain the kernel. I will try to flash kernel from 4.0.2.A.0.62 since it would match my backup. I hope :)

Thank you Madfysh for your help.

I will come back here later this evening or so and report the result.

Cheers!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
Yup, I'm using same ROM now. Most likely you forgot to wipe/format something, as I did yesterday :)

Strange is that before I flashed that zip I was already on that ROM, so not sure why not wiping system partition confused it, but.. :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] yogodo:
Maybe I will try ICS again first. Making sure I wipe everything.

But as I recall I think I followed the instructions.

1) I flashed the ICS kernel

2) Boot to CWM and wiped all I could wipe in the menues, even advanced/wipe dalvik-cache, and factory reset or whatever. Instruction says "format system, format data, format cache". I can't find that in CWM menues though. Is THAT my problem (with ICS)?

3) Flash update zip and reboot. Here it got stuck on SONY logo. Waited at least 15 minutes.

So maybe there is something I missed to format/wipe/clean?

By the way: if I now look at kernel version it says 2.6.32.9-perf which I think is the kernel from 4.0.2.A.0.62. So it did recover that from the backup? No?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
Yup, there's your problem :)

My phone is on charger now so I can't check to be 100% sure, but I think those options are under mount and storage.

No. It's just Sony didn't change kernel version. :)

That doesn't mean you can use kernel for GB on ICS and vice versa.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] yogodo:
Sir! You are absolutely correct! I just booted to CWM and there they are!

OK, thank you!

And thank you again :)

To night I WILL try ICS again, wiping even more!

Cheers!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] yogodo:
I realized I had everything I needed at hands: ICS kernel, ICS update. Go for it!

So I rebooted to CWM and did all wiping and formatting. Then update with zip, reboot. And now I've got ICS! Nice! Everything thing seems to work alright, awesome!

Problem solved then.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
;) Glad we solved that :)

Enjoy in ICS.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] kapilthio:
But you got it working in ICS. Same is happening for me. Its working in ICS but not on GB.

I am on Droid 3 which has locked bootloader & I have read that Locked bootloader = NO Kernel Replacement. Hence facing same wifi issue.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] yogodo:
Oh yes, I've got it working. The problem was that I mistakenly had the wrong kernel. I went from GB to ICS switching kernel and everything. Then I tried to go back to GB but I did not switch back the old kernel.

I actually never tried again to go back to GB since I got it working in ICS. But I suppose it would work in GB if I switch kernel and install my recovery backup.

Good luck!

Hi, I am having an issue regarding the camera in gingerdx rom.

Whenever I capture two to 3 shots continuously my camera goes black and it remains black until I press home button and restart camera app, sometimes it happens with single shot also. Please help me I love this rom and not using it because of this issue.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B.Jay:
Known bug, even listed in the GingerDX Bugs List & Solutions thread.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mujeeb999:
even the miui camera has this bug
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B.Jay:
Like I wrote in the thread I pointed you to: lgCamera works for me, and even Barcode Scanner works fine.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alamjit_singh:
solved

all gingerdx roms (xperia X8)even v31b has one error of camera(after some shoots camera turns black) ...in rom setup zip file(open with winrar) just replace camera.apk (system/app/camera.apk) with my camera.apk then instal rom... all errors will be disappear or u can replace this at the same location in mobile with root explorer then instal it also
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 95mediatech:
i also has this problem!,but its not bother me at all i rarely use Camera on X8 and i had this problem in previous GDX ROM but in currently the latest

v031b doesn't have the problem i didn't notice that.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xWhiskey:
Yeah, I mentioned in the other revived post I also had this problem, and my ROM is FroyoPro v2.5. What's different with this apk to make the camera work properly and what is the cause of the problem? Would it work on Froyo?

Perhaps I should check this LG camera and see if the problem still persists there.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alamjit_singh:
Just replace the file in my way u can test it urself

(NOTE) The 100% right method to install my camera.apk(to fix this permanently) in any rom is ->

In rom setup zip file(open with winrar) just replace camera.apk (system/app/camera.apk) with my camera.apk then instal rom (tested at all android v2.2 and 2.3 )

for gingerdx v31b it is working ...to test this in froyoPro Android 2.2+3

1) instal root explorer

2) go to location system/app/

3) mout from R/W to R/O

4) copy original camera.apk to ur sdcard at some safe place ( Do not mix my camere apk with this app)

5) Now copy (my camera.apk) and delete (system/app/camera.apk) then past (my camera file) to this location ..then inslal it also

then run ur camera ...

****(special case ....if after restart camera not running or capturing any photo ....then search and instal (camera.apk and GalleryDX.apk or gallery.apk) from location (system/app/) ...

then run camera)****

u will find the difference... now u no need to clear data of camera app in system/application.

****this camera.apk will not work for android v2.1 and 4.0 ,4.1 .....ics jb etc***

if u r not satisfied with my camera.apk (incase this is not working 4 anyone) then u can again replace the original file with my camera.apk then instal it ...after restart if camera is not capturing any pix then instal GalleryDX or gallery also

---------- Post added at 11:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:07 PM ----------

when we run the camera first time(after installation of rom) it usually does not gives any type of error ...but when we close it and run it again

then -> capture 30 photos continuously m 100% sure it will turns to black in b/w these 3 to 30 clicks.....(then u will find it needs to clear data first time)

and after clear data first time .....u will face this prob in every 3 to 6 shoots
[EVO 4G General] mobeus1:
So it might be a bit premature to celebrate but I believe ive found a much a simpler way to get your evo ( or any other CDMA phone) on boost. *this worked for me and would like to know if anyone else could try this to confirm it works as im out of phones.

what you need: Boost Donor phone. (not activated, new or Used)

htc evo, droid etc etc with alterations already performed( cant discuss what I mean by this but search google)

step 1) and this is the only step!!!! instead of activating your donor phone and getting NAM and nv files and aaa , keys and all that other garbage, just activate your EVO. once you activate it the keys and all other info is automatically sent to the evo upon hands free activation.

Thats it!

My guess is when new account is made keys etc are generated from meid and sent 1 time and 1 time only. as-long as its a "boost" phone it will automatically update all files.

again this has worked for me on my fiances phone and took about 10 mins once alterations were made to her evo.

Would others please try this to confirm it wasnt a fluke.
[EVO 4G General] Tripp-phpBB:
This seems like it should work, I've seen discussions before where some say it worked liked this and others said it didn't. So you're definitely not the first person to bring it up but I'm glad you posted a basic guide that others can try and report back.

My problem is I already have an EVO on Boost Mobile. I'd rather keep the same ESN/MEID as they're from my old TP2. I don't want to buy a donor phone to use those numbers but I don't think you can activate a new phone with an ESN that is already on your account.

Either way, great thread.
[EVO 4G General] mrkevo3000:
You still need to get NV items even with this method, there's no way around that, even if it says phone has been successfully activated, here's how to check, after phone has been successfully activated by hands free activation open up the dial pad and press ##33284# go down to data, it will tell you if your at 1xrtt or evdo A. Of course you want to be at evdo A. If it shows 1xrtt, which it will cause you haven't written the necessary NV items. You must go write your NV items..... On a side note that ##33284# is only going to work on a sense ROM, some custom roms won't let you access that, best to do it from a stock ROM, then flash your little heart:D

I want to remove the PIN request after the standby but I can't find where to change the this setting. I just remember a page where I can choose to use a PIN (numeric code) or a password. My ROM is Foliomod 1.4.

Does anyone know how to remove the PIN request?

Thank YOU!

From the official android guide for Honeycomb:

Go to settings (in bottom bar touch the time, open the settings page and go to settings at bottom of that menu)

[Folio 100 General] everyname0:
I'm using Foliomod 1.4 and, unfortunately, I have to confirm that once you set the pin code or the password to lock the screen, the lock setting menu DISAPPEARS! That's why I could not find it.

I had to reset the Folio, then entering the 'position and protection' menu I found the lock setting menu, but as I said, once activated the pin code, that menu vanishes making impossible to change or remove the pin code (had to reset again).

It's a bug of the Foliomod that should be fixed..
[Samsung Infuse 4G] jfromh:
Alright. Just got my Infuse last month. I picked this phone for specific reasons. Nevermind that. What I am curious about is this:

How secure are custom ROMs?

I know...noob. However, I have read a lot about it...or attempted to anyway. I am not finding much in the way of a technical explanation of why custom ROMs are secure.

Because of the nature of what I do, I need things to be pretty locked down.

I used to have a cappy, which I flashed a few ROMs to, and eventually bricked. But again, my job deals with personal info in my gmail inbox. I can't compromise that.

Alright, super long blabfest cut short: how secure are any of these ROMs?

Thanks for reading, thanks for writing, and most of all, thanks to the Devs!!!

[Samsung Infuse 4G] Clark Joseph Kent:
I am not a Dev, but I understand a little regarding software security from my software hack days. :eek:

Running these Custom ROMs are secure, it's your individual setting per app is where you manage your security. There are software apps free and paid, I have tried Norton apps for security on the Infuse, check it out its free and I believe it has a trial period. I understand what your concern, I have 4 email accounts that I run, with a govt email being forwarded to one of the four.
