[Nook Color General] Michar71:
Hi,

I tried to recover from a failed CM9/Google Apps install to CM7 from a backup and now I'm stuck in semi-bricked purgatory...

After restoring the backup the system wouldn't boot through and CWR is no longer available. No big deal, go to bootloader (Boot menu via Power+n still works) select SD as boot media and restart.

Except restart doesn't work anymore. After selecting "Boot now" I'm stuck with the menus and the message "Booting. One moment..." but nothing happens. (None of the other option-combinations gets me any further either...)

Only explanation I have is that the boot flag write to the memory where the boot parameters are stored is failing before the reset is executed.

So now I'm not bricked enough that it auto-boots into SD but too bricked to get to recovery or switch it over to SD boot....

Anybody knows a solution or if there is a key combination for u-boot to force a boot from SD?

Is there a way to get the bootloader totally shot so the system boots from the SD?

(This is Encore U-Boot 1.2 port)

Thanks,

Mike

[Motorola Droid Bionic] Immolate:
Any of the XDA brainiacs able to explain to a non-brainiac whether this is a matter of not having gotten around to it or if it's a puzzle that the ICS ROM community hasn't solved yet?

Also curious about the RAZR version of the lapdock app that allows use of the webcam and other functionality that the native Bionic app lacks. Is that portable to the Bionic?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] burnbrighter:
Webtop and bionic - hack it!

I too am wondering this. Or, is it possible to hack the webtop application on the Bionic to add the missing features available on the RAZR? Anyone care to take a stab at that?

Thanks!

[HTC Inspire 4G] daveyglow:
This may be a noob question but id like to know what all the hype is with switching your dpi. Can anyone help me out?
[HTC Inspire 4G] zelendel:
To be honest I dont understand it myself. The only plus to it is being able to fit more on the screen.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Agoattamer:
It gives your screen a high definition look. Think of it like a youtube video. If you watch a video in fullscreen and it is slightly blurry and then shrink it to half screen. The picture gets so much clearer. Changing your DPI is purely cosmetic. But it can cause apps to not run properly and apps not to be available from Google Play (Android Market). But there are fixes for this too.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Shimmty:
i don't get how you can raise the DPI if the phone itself has say 800X480.
[HTC Inspire 4G] MMM-BACONSTRIPS:
It's a setting offered on the Absolution ROM. I'm not sure if its a CM feature or what other ROMs offer it but Abolsution allows you to mess around with the DPI.

[TouchPad General] emo72:
for those of us in europe, who is the woz?
[TouchPad General] nunjabusiness:
Not to be an ass, but unless you have a photograph or video of him actually doing the signing or a signed affidavit from a reputable source it is not verifiable and therefore worth no more than a regular TP. I'm not saying it didn't happen, but you should be prepared for a lot of skepticism for the claim.

"Woz" is (or was) Steve Wozniak, a famous dead guy. Google it.
[TouchPad General] malikadnanm:
He's not dead.
[TouchPad General] Divine_Madcat:
Actually, if he cared to, most any reputable "signature" agency could verify it and give a COA (not free of course, but...). His STORY may not be verifiable easily, but that isn't what would make it valuable.

I also received a business card from him, but I really could care less I just wanted to meet the guy lol

[Bravo General] skeevydude:
UPDATED INFORMATION

Everything but notification power widget and rotation sensor issues. I believe both are just incompatible libs. Have to go to work so can't do any romming until I get off.

If the problem is what I think it is, it will be fully working with correct /system/lib/hw

EDIT:

After accidently selecting wipe data instead of wipe cache, I performed a reinstall and EVERYTHING WORKS PERFECTLY. I'm not sure why. Maybe I had a bad install???

I used the same zip, same changes (first post attachment) and same installer settings. Only issue is the ICS Theme Chooser theme wasn't selected by default. Other

than that I believe its fully working.
[Bravo General] skeevydude:
Found cause of rotation/noti power widget bug

Enabling 180 degree rotation causes the bugs with both rotation sensor and and the notification power widget. The fix is to not enable 180 degree rotation under Settings/CyanogenMod Settings/Display/180 Degrees.

While I don't know why bug occurs, at least I know why the reinstall fixed the problem. Also unsure if port bug or rom bug. I'll update when I know more.
[Bravo General] TweetyPeety:
first of all,, you not bothering me, I would like to make my Rom compatible to Bravo

second,,, yeah you have been right, still some German in my English translation, saw some c and k's and some German Text for clock :) yeah so many strings, have to do it also in Spanish.

third,,, included some if that aks for bravo and deactivated with the Second Boot Settings Mod ( you know you have to boot one more time after coming into the system to activate it, no way to make it the first boot, because database is not created at this time ) the 180 degree rotation

fourth,,, the changes in your updater-script, that are the same as you already have send me, because couldn't find any big difference..

fifth,,, thanks for the feedback with the ICS Theme at the beginning, you see I can't really test it and normally on the Defy I saw it in the last Version and removed the 2 code lines from my default build.prop, haven't seen it in the Bravo, but its fixed also.

anything else ??
[Bravo General] skeevydude:
Some of those pm's yesterday could have waited till I had more informtion with other things, instead of a bunch of tiny pm's with scattered information. That's what I meat by bothering you.

I posted an updated english translation in the first post that I did yesterday. I think it's completely translated. The phrases aren't in proper english and missing prepositions, but everthing is clear and understandable, and I'm being a bit of a grammer nazi about it at this point. "Grammer nazi" isn't offensive to Germans is it? I'm mostly German, with a bit of Dutch and tiny, tiny bit of Native American.

I tried booting up 3 time with 2nd-boot, it never got past the red motorola dot. I'll look over the 2nd-boot and see if I can figure out why, although 2nd-init works perfectly.

Don't konw the cause of the 180 bug either. When it's buggy, logcat is clean, nor do any errors show when 180 is enabled either. I need a user with a Defy to see if it's the rom or the Bravo.

With those two lines removed, everything workes fine with the theme.

You could test the Bravo install on a Defy if you wanted to, the only thing that won't work correctly is the camera.

The only issue I see left is that the touch press color on the reboot/shutdown menu is orange instead of blue. I don't know the location of its xml to help with.

I really can't think of anything else at the moment. It worked perfectly yesterday on a range of tasks from batch TB restore, gps, compass, camera, wifi, tethering. Well, I might have had a minor wifi bug....I took my dogs for a walk, and when I got back I had to disable and then reenable wifi to get it to connect. It may have been me in a hurry and not wanting to wait for Android to do it automaticly. I've had little wifi issues like that since the new screen off wifi power policy was implemented.....I don't like it. Its a pita when you data tether with wifi. Now I HAVE to use wifi keep alive. Phone gets really hot when the screen has to stay on AND your downloading at 1.5mbps.

The undervolting may be a bit low for the Bravo, its not for me, but my phone runs stable with 1200@57, 750@45, 300@22. And yes, those are my clock speeds when I need the extea power. Some Bravo's cant even run 800@57 stable. I think the Bravo may be made with not-up-to-par Defy parts. I planned on adding that in the release info when the rom gets released.

If everything I've sent you gets added into the rom, the next release will probabaly be the Bravo stable release.

While its off topic, when undervolting your phone, you'll get more instability from the two lower values being too low than the high value being too undervolted. My phone is PERFECTLY stable with the above settings, but if I go to 750@44 and 300@22, it is EXTREMELY unstable. Also, to do a quick undervolt stress test, while listning to music, just open 6+ tabs in Dolphin HD at the same time then start pressing random links. If it doesn't crash you're usually good to go.

full work..?
[Bravo General] skeevydude:
Yes. Fully working and great.:D I only had issues when restoring apps with titanium batch with app+data, but that can happen with any rom.;) The OC vsel settings may be low. That varies phone to phone. To be safe, move Vsel 2 and 3 up one each, and Vsel 1 can actually go to 22. I've used 22 with every rom I've ever used. Some roms can handle 21-19, but 22 I've found is stable and reliable.

I've had minor theme issues, but that's probably because I used custom install and had mixed miui and ics settings. Just play with the Rom Toolbox and you'll be themed however you like in no time.

Final is a BIG improvement from 1.2. You'll be happy. Only issue I've had is golauncher gave the dock warning on first boot, after swithching basebands and rebooting, it works fine.:)

[Bravo General] skeevydude:
If anybody has any problems with the rom that are Bravo related, let me know and I'll try to make a fix.

There shouldn't be any problems with the install. Baseband should work from the start.

Only issues are with GoLauncher on the first boot, just reboot and it works fine; and the installer saying to use 2nd-boot. (And downloads in notification tray, but that's a bug of the ICS theme chooser theme)

Enjoy:D
[Bravo General] mataflakitas:
wow

wonderful.....thanks skevy420....:D
[Bravo General] skeevydude:
Let me know if you have any problems.

***Possible Bug and Fix***

I've noticed that the settings menu likes to act wonky; ie, not adding in check boxes after selecting item. Only occurs after Batch TB Restore, with and without app+data from what I've noticed. Wiping Cache\Dalvik fixes it. Actually, could be that or converting DB's to WAL mode...I did both at the same time, both times that issue happened. Once on test2, and again on final. I also switched DB's to rollback mode at the same time I wiped cache\dalvik....I was in a hurry to go to sleep....

If anyone else who uses TBPro Batch notices the same issues, or the issue if it doesn't happen with TB, let me know what you did so I can update the 1st post with correct information and add a fix or a don't do this.

Once it comes and goes, I haven't seen that issue reappear.:)

***End***

This is probably the MOST customized rom on all of XDA for any device. I'm glad our problems are minor, and that the fixes are simply reboot or wipe cache\dalvik. The 2 easiest fixes to do, imho.

At least we don't have the Defy Plus, seems like Tweety's going through hell with it. Battery and kernel issues....We should all feel extremely lucky we have the same Battery and Kernel as the Defy.

(Q) Has anybody used multiboot with this rom?

People having multiboot issues in Defy forum, just making sure we don't have them. I haven't used multiboot since the beginning of the month, and never tested it. Tweety didn't either, afaik.

[Bravo General] marquae11:
Why does the battery drain so fast? Its draining like 6 percent a half hour

sent from my Motorola Bravo
[Bravo General] skeevydude:
Is that in deep sleep, wifi, 3g, bluetooth? I had 10% loss overnight with 1 to 2 hours of music, only internal raido on.

Here's a bunch of ideas to try to cover everything.

It could be your overclock settings. Read where I posted about overclock bug, it does apply here, and probably any CM7 you try to run. It's been there on any Defy CM7 I've ran in the past month anyways. I run overclocked at 1.1@56 with the settings I posted in the other thread and my battery usage is about normal. You can safely tune the lowest vsel to 300@22. That'll make deep sleep and vsel1 use less battery.

Also, try something like Advanced Task Killer in the Market. Disable the automatic app killing, and use the widget to kill tasks when your done using the phone. You can even set an ignore list so it doesn't kill apps like phone or your sms app or whatever. Its not really a good idea to use any task killer in its automatic mode, but that widget is convenient.

Take advantage of the Notification Power Widget. Add in mobile data, sync, gps, bluetooth, and wifi and you can turn off anything at the swype of a thumb. It's actually my favorite "widget" of CM7 because of its battery saving features.

You could try using battd from the Bravo CM7. Its located at /system/bin/battd. Install with adb using "adb push /path/to/battd /system/bin/battd" then "adb shell chmod 0777 /system/bin/battd" then reboot. Or use Root Explorer, or another root file explorer, and copy\paste from the sdcard and set the permissions like in the screenshot. I like Yaffs Explorer, but half of its in French. Its the best for setting permissions, imho.

Also, theme in screenshot is ICS by kovdev. GoLauncher set to 6x5 grid with icons and font at smallest. And the 15hrs@300mhz was from being on charger playing music while I was asleep, or wifi usb tethering.

I hope some of this helps. I only get bad battery drain when using cpu intensive apps or when using radios. Especially multiple radios. Other than that, maybe 1~4 % an hour, 4 meaning I forgot to turn off wifi AND 3g and had 5-10 mins of calls. I can lose 10%+ an hour using snes9x and sixaxis with loud volume:D.
[Bravo General] marquae11:
Does deep sleep mean the same thing as turning the display off?

sent from my Motorola Bravo
[Bravo General] skeevydude:
The phone is supposed to enter deep sleep when the display is off and you're not using a ton of cpu, like if you're reencoding audio, listning to music, etc... That's why I recommend using cpuspy to check your oc setup, and to let you know you're hitting all vsel modes and entering deep sleep when you're supposed to.

The thing about that oc bug I mentioned, is it is mentioned in github and recommended to use the CM7 after boot option, The cpu governors just don't act right when bootmenu and cm7 have the same governor enabled. Set boot to performance to boot fast, then conservative or smart ass in cm7. Conservative, when tweaked, performs real good and will use all vsel ranges as needed. Smart Ass will go high and low fast, but its hard to get it to use vsel2, but it drops vsel's faster.

You'd never know that the oc bug was in effect unless you go out of your way and try to find it. I'd of never noticed it if I hadn't been tweaking my oc settings and was realizing none of them were working, at all, and that WILL cause a high battery drain. When my phone stayed in vsel3 NO MATTER WHAT, I knew something was wrong.

Have to go, bossman's here.
