Syncing with Google

Hey!

I love this ROM, but am experiencing a problem that I cant figure out. I cannot sync with Google :( even after installing gapps for ICS (I store my contacts in Google)... when I go to System settings --> Accounts and Sync, sync is pemanently off and when I touch the google account, nothing comes up on the page that usually displays 'Contacts', 'Calendar' etc.

Please help.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ALESSIO94x:
It's strange... in my ideos I does not have this problem... try to wipe datas and reinstall the Gapps package.

Hello,

I flashed this rom a few days back on my Ideos U8150...and I am very pleased with the overall experience....it is very smooth, fast and amazing layout...only problem I faced

1. Could not install Youtube because it says not compatible with the device..

2. Random restarts and hangs at random points when there is too much load I guess.

Although, the work around for youtube is...i just downloaded an apk file instead of downloading it directly from google play store...

P.S: I also found another ROM coldfusion ICS for u8150 based on cynagenmod...I checked out its videos and it looks pretty much similar to this one...can any one tell which is a better choice and why?

Thanks.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ALESSIO94x:
This one is based on Android 2.3 (cyanogenmod) and the other one is based on Android 4 ICS. So the ICSIdeos is much more stable than coldfusion ;)

icsideos

Been using this a couple of days now, and like it a lot. I had been using dronix 0.6 the run and liked it apart from the battery drain.

This is a great rom with nice graphics, thanks.;)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] zealouszee:
Okay, Thanks. By the way, thanks for the great ROM. Just like the person above my post, I used to be a dronix fan. I didn't know I could get my hands onto something better. But, when I installed ICSIDESO, it feels like I have a whole new mobile set in my hand. I have already impressed my other friends who has far better configuration than my U8150, but still can't get ICS lol! Plus, I learned to use Link2SD as well. So, More Internal storage+ ICSIDEOS has been the perfect match for me!

One more thing though, I sometimes have problem with the music player. Sometimes it doesn't start and gives force closed. But, I kinda fixed it by clearing the data and cache or whatever it is in the application info of Music app and it worked great then.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ALESSIO94x:
Thanks to all the fans of this ROM! A new version soon... ;)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] zealouszee:
Nice...when should we expect a newer version?

P.S: I am having some weird problem now...On rotating my cell phone...(when the screen rotates..) the screen gets fully green (Solid Green Color appears) for 2-3 seconds and then it gets back to normal....I tried restarting the cell phone...and now after the restart is completed...it goes fully green for 2 seconds..and then gets back to normal..any idea what could be wrong? Should I try reflashing the ROM?

Thanks.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] zealouszee:
Well, That was something with the Holo launcher. :) I cleared the data of Holo Launcher restarted my phone and it fixed it..no more green screen...!

About the update, I think the music player should be worked on a little..everytime I open the music app when the screen is rotated it either gives force close error or restarts the phone. When the screen is vertical It works fine. Plus, If I start the music app while the screen is vertical it starts fine and I can rotate the screen without any error. it just doesn't start holding the phone that way.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] zealouszee:
hello,

im back here ..well.. today..i by chance started FM radio..and it doesnt work.. :( gives me force close all the time..tried everything..is it a known issue? any solutions?

thanks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ALESSIO94x:
This is issue is common to all the cyanogen release for our device. Radio will never work on Ideos u8150. Sorry :(

[Miscellaneous Android Development] zealouszee:
Its okay..but I am having a worse problem now....well... for some reasons, i wanted to reflash my phone..and i did...it all worked fine..but here is the major problem..my cell is not charging when I plug in! :( I don't know whats wrong..when I plug it in..the lights of the charging turns on and the battery says its charging but just for a second or two..and then theres no charging..i tried to to charge it from my pc then...and when i connected it did the same...

its not charging even with my pc..although i can see the usb debugging mode and i can use it as usb mass storage..im able to browse all the files of my SD card on my pc when the cable is connected to my pc..but my cellphones not charging..any idea what could be wrong? I didn't face this problem when I flashed this ROM before..

Thanks..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ALESSIO94x:
Try to change ROM and report if it works again... or is your battery that is dead.

Inviato dal mio samsung con Tapatalk 2
[Miscellaneous Android Development] zealouszee:
It fixed itself for a while..it was charging like normal today..but then the problem is back on...when I try to charge by turning off the phone..the phone bootsup instead of charging.....i will try to change the rom and try.

P.S: I am having some weird problems about the battery as well.. Like my phone suddenly shows 0% battery left or very low 10% battery left all of a sudden.

thanks.

This may help someone else. I was failing at installing this ROM from CWM Recovery 6.0.1.2 but succeeded when I "downgraded" it to 5.0.2.8
[Miscellaneous Android Development] StuttgartKiwi:
Hi ALESSIO94x, thanks for this rom - I've just installed v2.0 on my U8150 for the first time and it looks great!

One question though: why does "About Phone" show the Android version as being "4.0.4 ICS", when in fact it's really 2.3.7 Gingerbread?

I know this rom is meant to look like ICS, but the actual version is still really 2.3.7, and this is the version that should be displayed in About Phone. Otherwise it's misleading and causes confusion amongst the users. Being able to see the true version running on the phone could be important for users to know.

Could you kindly correct this for your next update of this great rom, please?!

Thanks!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ALESSIO94x:
I like it, and I like when I show "About Phone" to my friends... It's a sort of joke ;)

In the first thread I wrote the version of Android... so users should know this!

i was testing your rom, it's realy well done,

i found two small bugs:

1-when i receive a call, the ringtone make a loop and stop, instead to continue indefinitely until to answer.

2-The rom dont read sim contact, but only those imported on phone or gmail

3-the wifi received signal seems a bit less than other rom

Why you dont make IdealIcs based on coldfusionx cm9?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ALESSIO94x:
Thanks for your report, but I does not have anymore this phone. Anyway thanks to all and enjoy this ROM ;)

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] fjsferreira:
I recommend you use the one from the link I posted, because any other stock 2.3.5 ROM and you'll end up with a locked bootloader and, because of that, with no access to usb in pink mode. that would be reversible, but requires more unecessary work....

To start the upgrade process you must have the UPDATE.APP inside a dload folder in the root of sd card. Any other file structure and the upgrade process won't start.

It should look like this:

SdCARD/dload/Update.app.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] CZ Eddie:
For just $10-$15 delivered (depending on seller) it's the best looking "slimmish" case I've ever tried. Perfect fit and beautiful looks.

Hard shell with see-through sides that look almost chrome like from some angles. Which gives the phone an iphone like appearance (chrome bezel on iphone).

Was going to give this case an A+++ rating until I discovered it degrades my data signal by anywhere from 50% in low signal areas to 10% in good signal areas.

GPS didn't have any noticeable issues, though I didn't check signal strength.

So just a warning. Very, very nice looking/fitting slim case.

But it does degrade my download speeds.

Here are a couple links. Both have different descriptions but are the same case & color.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xlazaruzx:
I have the blue one and I don't notice any decrease in data or gps signal. I don't use this case anymore because it's a pain to take it off the phone so I switched back to my SGP ultra capsule.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] guapinoy:
thanks for the input which one is thinner? this case or the SGP?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xlazaruzx:
This one is thinner and made of hard plastic. The SGP is also thin and made of polyurethane. Go with SGP it's a little expensive but the quality is top of the line. I have few friends who have the Skyrocket and they all bought the SGP ultra capsule after seeing mine. They all said it felt better holding it compared to other cases.

It won;t protect from water damage, like rain, humidity, taking it to a washroom:)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] guapinoy:
This case is beautiful. It's hard plastic with an aluminum-ish textured back. I happened to grab the Black one for less than 8 bucks shipped on Amazon. It's a low profile case, reminds me of the Incipio Feathered cases.

Now the bad news...It really does degrade signal quality. Before this case, my signal was -86 dbm and after the case it's -101 dbm. This is on UMTS/HSPA, don't have LTE in my area.

I also tried some speed tests. Without a case on average 3mbs down, 1.2 mbs up. With this case on, I got 1.2 mbs down, .65 mbs up on average.

Like the OP stated, I didn't think it really affected GPS, but my tests were not as extensive.

So a great looking case, with a crappy downside.

Back to the Diztronic for me...sigh.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jimhlt:
Hard to tell from the ebay description exactly what this thing is made of.

- Anodized Brushed Aluminum Hard Shell Protective Snap-On Case Cover

- Made with Shatter Proof ABS Plastic

One line says aluminum the next one says ABS plastic. I would expect any metal case to degrade reception.

Does look good though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] guapinoy:
I decided to test and pry off the metal-ish back. Its only glued on the plastic. Did some more testing and saw that reception is back to normal without that layer. Of course the case is ugly without that layer. There's a lot of glue so you would have sand it to get all the glue off and it'll scratch up the see through plastic.

Like I said ... back to the diztronic.

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Luppertazzi:
Huge problem with Defy.

Had the phone for 7 months, and for the past month, every time i make or receive a call, when i try to end the call i cannot, because the screen is black and the red led is shining. Either i dial a number and the screen goes automatically black and i have to wait 2-3 minutes for it to get back or actually remove the battery, or i recieve a call and i can't end it because the screen is black whilst talking and afterwards.

I had this while running 2.2.2 CEE and CM7 which i'm running now. Any ideas?

Thanks.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vap_66:
I'll take a wild guess here, but since you had it in two ROMs and judging by the effects, could it be related to the proximity sensor?

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Luppertazzi:
Yes. I managed to find a videon in which some chinese guy unscrewed the right-sided bolt a little and it fixed his issue. It partly fixed mine too. In any case, way better than before, now i could actually try and close a call every once in a while.

But is there any way to permanently solve this?
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bikerabhinav:
^ Here's the video you're talking about: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uMk1S90MjbY&feature=youtu.be

BTW, same problem with my Defy. It used to work perfectly but then a few months ago I started noticing some problems with sensor (using Nordic 177-5 and CM7). Then I reflashed Nordic and used WajkIUI but the issue was still there. Luckily, WIUI has an option to completely disable proximity sensor which I did. Now, I have moved on to CEE 179-002 and CM9 and the issue comes back because now there's no option to disable proximity during call.

I still have to try out what that Chinese guy has shown. The very dim red light in sensor region is constantly glowing (if you look closely). Definitely a hardware issue.

Anybody else has permanent solution?
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bone101:
I have had the same problem.

A small time after i replaced my screwed front housing (broken screwholes ) inkl. Digitizer-toutch glass .

Im on quark's cm9 defy+ build march 30 at my normal defy.

A kernel change from 4.5.2-109 DHT22 to CM9 kernel solved the problem till now.

Now im looking for 4.5.1-134 DFP-231 kernel CWM update.zip
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bikerabhinav:
So I followed the Chinese guy's video and found the my proximity sensor starts working, when I put a little pressure on the screw with a screw driver. Video tells us to rotate it, but mine works by pressure. it again stops working when pressure released. Now I don't know how to keep it constantly under pressure. :confused:

It's probably loose, coz sometimes it works on tapping the sensor.

How are you able to run CM9 defy+ build on normal defy? Which is you base SBF ? are there any special steps required to install defy+ cm9 on defy? Please let me know, I'll try upgrading kernel, it might work!
