set your 2.3.5 camera to sdcard-ext then download ics gallery ...they will go to dcim on your ext sd
[Motorola Photon 4G] hellot1M:
Does Anyone know if 2.3.5ish has the same repeat SMS issue?
[Motorola Photon 4G] sjamie:
That's exactly what I did but I'm still getting the "no media gallery installed" error. Does it matter that I used Titanium Backup to uninstall the default gallery instead if Root Uninstaller?
[Motorola Photon 4G] ttkyles:
yea I don't know cause I don't use titanium backup, I use MyBackUp Root pro,works like a charm.

even though when flashing from 2.3.5 to ics/jb I never restore data just apk's

cause restoring data sometimes causes problems...

[Motorola Photon 4G] njankit:
The Black and white theme that is linked in OP doesn't work with v19. Flashing it causes the phone to stuck at the boot logo
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
I am sorry, I cannot help with the theme.
[Motorola Photon 4G] kurtcocaine:
I had the same problem but then i noticed the theme poster lists a separate link for v16 - http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=28948900&postcount=20

I never got around to trying it, but you can give it a shot if you want

May be you didnt see that either. The link leading of the OP of this thread leads to theme for older version I think which I tried and didnt work

Call Recordin, Arabic and Face lock

Hi Peetr_, Your work is almost perfect, I say almost because there are some issues if it gets solved, It will be awesome ;

1- If we can somehow be able to use call recording in this Rom, I now you told about the Chinese rom but I think it has to do with the kernel to. If you can look at it pls.

2- The Arabic and Persian text still has some problem to be read and write well, in ICS JB Roms that issue is solved, can you look at it pls.

3- Can you put the face lock to screen lock choices, the ones in the market are not good enough , the only good one I now is the one from MIUI 4 rom.

Other than that, this Rom has been with me around the world, and never let me down. Thank you very much.
[Motorola Photon 4G] matriX1218:

4. I need 4G too... ;)
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
1. I am afraid that even if it was kernel related problem and I would find some patch for that, I don't have Linux installed and I am not going to install it in near future. It's a long process to setup everything.

2. This is hard for me, because I do not even know where and how it should be looking properly. Try to install app for changing fonts, from Play Store, and try to change fonts. It could solve the problem.

3. This is really hard. I think I am not able to do that. And even if I could do that, ICS will be out before I will be finished.

4. I am sorry, 4g means making this ROM from scratch and ICS will be probably out before I will be finished.

And to be fair, I don't want to work on anything, taking to much time to make it. I started to use this ROM more and develop it less. :)

Only 2 issues are making me mad.

Repeated sms and sometimes when I try to make a call, it looks like the RIL hangs and I must reboot. But it's sometimes only.

Other than that, I am satisfied. :)
[Motorola Photon 4G] sjamie:
I finally got this to work by reflashing Peetr's gallery choice patch. When I tap the picture thumbnail in the camera, it brings me to the folder list in the ICS gallery, then I must tap the "camera" folder, then finally the picture to view it. That's a total of three taps to view the picture. Are you saying this is what you are experiencing too or does your gallery open in the "camera" folder thus eliminating one tap?

Call recording would be incredibly useful for my business but I understand your challenges. :)

I experience the repeating sms issue pretty frequently but I've learned to reboot a few times to stop it eventually. Annoying but livable.

Since my last flashing of this ROM, I have not yet experienced the calling delay (fingers crossed). It used to always occur at exactly the WRONG time for me and got worse over time. Maybe it is a memory allocation issue. Factory resets seems to set things back in order for a while but then the problem tends to creep in. I've experienced this phenomenon on many Photon ROMs.

THANK YOU FOR CREATING A GREAT ROM, PEETR!
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
I could take a look at the MokeeOS sms app. I think, it's database problem, but who knows. :)
[Motorola Photon 4G] XxCE0xX:
why does locked still have no 4g?
[Motorola Photon 4G] sjamie:
This ROM was built from Electrify stock on US Cellular and that carrier did/does not offer 4G service.
[Motorola Photon 4G] ttkyles:
peetr...

I'm getting a reboot while connecting to my Alpine car radio via Bluetooth.

using v.19 it connects and re- connects

fine, but randomly reboots.

suggestions?
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
Hmm, never happened to me. I have Clarion radio in my car.

You updated to v19 from your v15 nandroid? Or clean installation?

You can try with another kernel (v15).
[Motorola Photon 4G] ttkyles:


I did go from my 15 nandroid. to 19

I'll try a clean install of 19 and see if that works.
[Motorola Photon 4G] DarkJatrix:
I just tried to install v18 from cm10 and its stuck on the unlocked Motorola screen.....any way to get this to boot? I deleted user data already and cleared both chaches
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
And why don't you install v19? ;)
[Motorola Photon 4G] DarkJatrix:
Cause I just got the phone and v18 was on the SD. I got it by formatting system. Is there any way to bring back the blur home launcher?
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
I am sorry, but no, it's not possible in this rom.

[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
This has nothing to do with the rom. Looks like radio problem.

Hey there guys

peetr_ is just flashed v19 and everything is running smooth , except my data does not wanna work , im on gsm and I add my apn and enable mobile data but nothing shows up on the top bar , rebooted phone and no go :( , another thing is about the notifi with no toggles you uploaded , i flashed and when i powered my phone back up , I didnt have notification bar o_o , hope i can get a solution to this , big fan of your work :D
[Motorola Photon 4G] dingo502:
Would it be difficult to incorporate back to kill?
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
Hmm, I guess I should have tested the no_notif_toggles. :) I did some fixes to it and just reuploaded. About data, try to flash 254_12 libmoto_ril.so.

It would be probably, because I don't know where to start. I would have to search and search for hours. :)
[Motorola Photon 4G] manybreak:
Hey peetr_ about the data the libmoto file is the one on the first page? where the locked version files are? Cause im rooted and flashed the unlocked one or that doesnt matter ? :]

Oh and btw i flashed the olegfusion kernel
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
Ok. If you're unlocked, I guess you have radio from 198_7, so you can try to flash 198_7 libmoto_ril.so or somewhere here was libmoto_ril.so from Atrix that works. Or is there a possibility, that your apn is not properly set?

Kernel doesn't matter I think.

Edit:

No_notification_toggles.zip repaired.

Youtube issue

Hi peetr_, what a great Rom, works really well, GSM also (im from Colombia), but buddy... i have a issue: its impossible watch a youtube video, wont let me play any video, i try everything: fix permission, download new tegra gapps (also i dont see the youtube app in my phone or installed programs and wh i try download the youtube app via play store don't let me, simply stay "downloading"), well thi is annyoning.. i read al the post a don't found anything related, can you guide me please, im really happy with the Rom performance, but video is video ;)

Again thx by the effort make the mophos more "enjoyables", gretings from Medellin, Colombia (and sorry my ugly english)
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
Hmm, I am a little lost, in your installation process...

1.recovery

2.wipe data/factory reset

3.install rom

4.reboot system

5.login to your Google account

6.open play store

7.install YouTube

8.enjoy videos

If you cannot download it, try restarting.

Still nothing? Try factory reset one more time.
[Motorola Photon 4G] juanlopera:
Hi Peetr_, first thx for the fast answer, well, i before reinstall with the same steps that iu describe me..., but the same thing, then i try with the V18 of your rom, and until this moment, works full, no youtube issue, i give a try after one hour with the V19 again (making all wipes) and... the issue reappear (imposible download the youtube application from market, all applications download fine) and again no videos from web...well, i return to V18 and 101% happy... everithing works like charm!

Hey buddy thx again for brings support for the mophos, sincerelly: this is the best Rom that i tried ever (the Sprint bloatware and Blur was my nightmare before... no more :)

ahhhh, another thing: its possiblemake a toggle bar with 2g/3g toggle?... and how its deveploment with USSD codes e xecution (well, i read that you are gsm else, ussd are really helpfull with my carier, but i can live without this now), sorry for bother you a lot buddy

Greetings from Colombia
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
Well, I don't understand why play store from v18 works for you and from v19 doesn't, but I am glad, it you managed to get it working.

2g/3g toggle is not possible with Blur Phone apk. There is an app for this toggle, sharing phone process id, but it was somehow problematic.

USSD is not working and I don't even know where could be the problem
[Motorola Photon 4G] ttkyles:
Peetr your ROM is working like a champ

here in Portugal .

Using a Vodaphone sim

You rock!

Thanks so much

Oh one thing, having a hard time closing an app. Such as Google voice or instagram. Back button doesn't kill it.

Don't really like task managers so.....

Suggestions?

Oh one more thing, do you have a paypal account. I would like to buy you a beer?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Peetahzee:
I need some help in installing this ROM... in fact I think I might have bricked my phone.

I have an locked Photon, on 2.3.4. I first installed the rom, but found that I cannot connect to the network. Out of curiosity I thought I'd try out the 198_7boot.img since it sounded like it'd fit me, but after flashing that, it shows "Failed to Boot 3" and just died there.

Anybody have any idea what this could be about? I don't exactly know what other information could be helpful, but I'd appreciate so much if I can get some help... :/ Thanks in advance!
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
After some research today, I found the easiest solution for killing last running app.

It's called "Kill This" and you can find it in Play Store.

It's really good, but you are killing app from notification area, not with the button.

I think I could make back button killing, but I don't want to. It would be another frustrating work.

And now, when this is my only phone, full of apps and games and every restart takes ages, I don't want to modify it too much anymore. :)

I do have a PayPal account, but it takes only money, not beers. Last time I tried to send beer into someone's account, it was not accepted and I needed to change the keyboard. :D

But I appreciate your offer.
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
Flashing some unlock sbf should get you out of the failed to boot state.

Please continue about this problem in some sbf thread. Or make some thread in Q&A section.
[Motorola Photon 4G] hellot1M:
Ok I don't have my photon anymore. My daughters mom got it in the mail today. She's using straight talk. Her service is working but not data. She has unlimited data. When I flashed the kddi radio and then this ROM I was using an ATT sim. Would that set the phone up from boot with ATTs APN settings? If so how can I reset them without resetting the phone. Or how can I fix the data issue without a reset of the whole device.

Edit: nvm figured it out lol
[Motorola Photon 4G] manybreak:
Hey there me again :D

Still can't get data to work on v19 after i do my restore with titanium , gonna have to stick with v18
[Motorola Photon 4G] sjamie:
Have you tried formatting system, data, etc., doing a factory reset and then flashing v19?
[Motorola Photon 4G] manybreak:
Always do before i flash a new rom , dont know what the problem could be :/
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
How did you figured it out? Maybe that would help "manybreak" too. ;)
[Motorola Photon 4G] InsanePostman:
Great Rom man!! Love the layout and the simplicity alone with certain CM features like the battery percentage in the icon. I was wondering something.. I have a backup I made with Bootstrap Recovery.. Is there a way to reinstall only applications data? Such as game saves/progress etc but leaving the layout stock so I can customize it from scratch? I obviously don't want to do a full restore and overwrite your rom.
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
I am glad you like it. You can install Titanium backup, there is a feature to restore from nandroid backup, but who knows, how does it work. I never tried that. But restore only installed apps and games. No system data like sms, recent calls, wifi points, etc.
[Motorola Photon 4G] InsanePostman:
mbitmap=null error when trying to take a screenshot after holding power button. is this a known bug? it's not exactly a pressing issue... just something i came across
[Motorola Photon 4G] sjamie:

hmmmm. I have never had this problem

I don't think that statement is accurate.

[Motorola Photon 4G] InsanePostman:

[Motorola Photon 4G] ttkyles:
I didn't say you made that up.

We peetr ROM lovers are just quick to defend our daily.... lol

No worries, peetr is allways helpful in helping users solve their INDIVIDUAL problems.
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
Well, let's take a look at this... :)

Have you restored your data with Titanium backup?

Have you had this problem after clean installation?

Do you have dcim/screenshots folder on internal sdcard?

What else?

Try to do factory reset one more time.
[Motorola Photon 4G] InsanePostman:
Here's the picture of error message. sorry for quality.
[Motorola Photon 4G] InsanePostman:
The only time I installed this hybrid was after a clean re-installation having followed the un-bricking procedure listed in your other post. So could it be that I'm running an electrify us cellular based os to begin with that's causing this problem? This is the only problem I've came across so far with this rom. If I can't fix it it's not that big of a deal honestly. I just posted it to see if anyone was aware/had this happen to them. I havent restored any data at all.
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
This has nothing to do with the base firmware.

I don't understand, why do I need to repeat myself, but well... Do you have DCIM/Screenshots folder on your internal sdcard?

Are you using sdcard switch?

Did you restarted?

Try to check internal sd for errors in PC.
[Motorola Photon 4G] InsanePostman:
I checked the folder and did not have "screenshots" on either internal or external sd dcim folder. So I created one and rebooted the phone but it says the same thing. I'm not using sdcard switch,
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
Did you take some photo, with the camera already? Photos are saved properly?
[Motorola Photon 4G] InsanePostman:
Yeah the pictures I take are saving and showing up properly. I have them set to save to external sd card at the moment.
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
Set the camera to save pictures in internal sd and make some pictures.

Check it for errors.

Try formatting it.

Try to make the DCIM/Screenshots folder manually.
[Motorola Photon 4G] sjamie:
Although I save all camera pics to my external sdcard, all screenshots are saved internally to /mnt/sdcard/DCIM/Screenshots by default. Don't know if this helps you or not.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Equalizir:
Hi Peetr, I was wondering if you could add a screen off toggle like in cm7?

I flashed v19 yesterday and it works great! Thanks so much.if you can't do the toggle its cool.I got used to it in cm7. I'm so glad you added the volume wake keys.
[Motorola Photon 4G] maxon_yalta:
You can use this app, it's great and it's the only one that works properly with the Photon.
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
It's not so important, is it? Last couple of weeks, I am lazy to do anything on Android, that takes more than one hour to make. :)
[Motorola Photon 4G] Equalizir:
No its not important.
[Motorola Photon 4G] sjamie:
peetr_, consider making the ICS Gallery the default in v20. It is working well and it's a great runner up to QuickPic!
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
I don't know, I would have to ask the developer, if I can use it.
[Motorola Photon 4G] sjamie:
Since the application is free, hopefully they will say yes.
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
The request for gallery was submitted.
[Motorola Photon 4G] sjamie:

[Motorola Photon 4G] Equalizir:
I have version 19 and its working great so far.the only problem I'm having is can't receive pictures thru text. Is their a fix or is that a normal problem?

Do you mean mms? GSM or CDMA?

Btw, I have permission to use ICS Gallery, so I will take a look at it tomorrow.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Equalizir:
Yeah mms. I'm on cdma with Sprint
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
Hmm, anyone else with this problem?
[Motorola Photon 4G] seesser:
I'm on USCell and the pictures auto download. Try setting to auto retrieve, I have had issues in the past with roms that if I didn't download the attachment right when the message was received it would not download them.
[Motorola Photon 4G] epark1281:
After having used this rom for over half a year I've been forced to flash back to stock. I lost 3g connectivity and had to update prl, which I can't do from this rom. I loved hybrid when I was on it but I find the more I flash the less I care, and the more I ask myself what difference does it make. At the end of the day, and I tell myself, its just a friggen phone...I think I'm getting old. Thanks anyway for your work. I enjoyed it while it lasted. :)
[Motorola Photon 4G] Equalizir:
Yeah I'm getting to that point too.

---------- Post added at 06:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:55 AM ----------

How do I set to auto retrieve?
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
I understand very well, stock ROM is just working. And I think I would be upset, if I would have to flash another rom, just for updating some number. I am sorry for that, but I don't know much about CDMA and this US Cellular rom was the first 2.3.5 with full HD recording. It's probably a little easier, to use Hybrid on GSM.

But I want this rom more than you or anyone else.

I don't want too much things from stock, just because Sprint and Blur doesn't mean anything for me in my country, some things I was missing, and I want my phone to write most things in Czech.

Blur email was not working with my second email provider and there is no better email client on the Play Store, than the one from cm7. And I didn't want to have some authenticators for providers, I will never be using.

Blur Music and Blur Gallery are very nice. It's good, that I can buy music right from it, but when I found, that Amazon doesn't support Paypal, it's useless for me. It's nice, that I can have my pictures from social sites sorted in my phone gallery, but if the only social site I use is XDA, it's useless.

The best from changing calendar is just the Czech language again. And the cm7 one looks better.

The old notification toggles didn't mean to much to me too. But these cm7 toggles are really quick to get into settings.

Data counter, it was always there, in stock, counting (draining battery a little), but numbers were not provided to us.

And I could go on.

About stock ROM, I can say it's a patchery. It's a patchery of DroidX2 and Atrix roms, modified for Photon.

I am not doing anything better, this is a patchery too. But I would wait something much better from the Motorola company.

They did not even gave us the 3D UI, why would they give us ICS?

Basically, the stock ROM for Photon is just continuously updated Froyo from almost 2 years old Atrix = easy work.

I cannot use stock ROM, if I want more from this phone. And I am using it more.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Equalizir:
Peetr_ if I flash back to stock can I still flash some of your fixes for example the volume wake flash?
[Motorola Photon 4G] seesser:
Open messages and from the main screen that has all your messages click the menus phone button and select settings. It is down the list a little but it is there.
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
No, you couldn't, because of signature. And you cannot change USC systemui for Sprint systemui for example.

Volume wakeup is coded in framework.jar (if I remember right) and you cannot switch them again.
[Motorola Photon 4G] UCChemE05:
Is there a patch available for this ROM for extended batteries? I put it one over the weekend have been getting very annoyed with the in-ROM charging and $ outputs.

Thanks!
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
Anything available for this ROM is provided in the first post.

Could you explain more?
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
There should be "ongoing" title under carrier title, I noticed that just week ago. :)

No, data wipe needed between v19 and v20.

The locked version zip looks like broken maybe? Can anyone else confirm?

In my phone it flashed fine. But I didn't tested with data wipe.
[Motorola Photon 4G] sjamie:
Same true for going from v18 to v20?
[Motorola Photon 4G] peetr_:
Hmm, probably the same. But make backup first. ;)
