Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):

Q: How do i get 2G/4G icons?

A: Inside /system/app, is an apk called "AltSystem". This is a very small theme engine theme that i built and should show in Theme Chooser. To

get 2G/4G icons, go to Theme Chooser, and apply AltSystem. All it does is swap out the data icons, doesn't touch anything else.

Q: This is my first time installing your ROM, and i'm stuck in a bootloop. I chose to install Harsh's kernel. Help!!

A: STOP, reboot into recovery, and re-install. This time, select stock CM9 kernel. Once it's booted, you can go back and install Harsh's kernel separately. It happens very randomly.

Q: This has ROM Control, so can I use AOKP Backup? It says it's not a AOKP ROM.

A: Well of course it isn't an AOKP ROM, but i can confirm that AOKP Backup now works with Genesis. IDK if Romann fixed it so ROMs w/ RC can use it

or what, but it has been brought to my attention that the latest version of AOKP Backup works fine, just continue through the warning and backup/restore away.

Q: Which baseband does this ROM support?

A: March 2012 and below. If you are currently on the March 2012 baseband, then make sure you select the "March 2012" option under Baseband support in AROMA.

If you're still on the old baseband (like me) then you don't have to do anything. The "Anything before 2012" option is selected by default

Q: Why doesn't Bluetooth calling work?

A: Because you're probably on the March 2012 baseband. BT calling doesn't work on anything above 2.3.4 when you're on the March 2012 baseband.

Q: Why do I hear a weird popping noise when I'm in a call?

A: Because you're probably on the March 2012 baseband and you didn't select the correct option in Aroma.

Q: Why is video playback choppy?

A: Because we need hardware acceleration, and until we get the necessary drivers, stuff like that won't right.

Q: Why can't i record video?

A: See above answer....

Q: Why do you not recommend using these wipe tools prior to flashing Genesis

A: It has been addressed here:

Q: What's the deal with AROMA? Do i need CWM Touch for it to work?

A: AROMA is a special type of binary that CWM reads and launches in the zip. I've started using it as a way to keep everyone happy with options. Install the stuff you want, don't install the stuff you don't want. The choice is completely up to you. You don't need CWM Touch for AROMA to work, but it's cherry with it.

Q: Why is the download so big?

A: AROMA is why. All those options have to be somewhere, and they are all packaged in the ROM zip itself. Yes it may take a bit longer to download, but that's because it comes with so many extras and options. Personally, i think it's worth it.

Q: Why does my phone reboot when i try to enable UMS(USB Mass Storage)? I'm using the stock kernel.

A: Because you're using the stock kernel. UMS needs support on both ROM & kernel side to work on ICS. It's been handled on the ROM side, so you gotta flash a custom kernel (like the latest Harsh kernel) to use UMS. Otherwise all you'll get is reboots on stock kernel because it doesn't know what UMS is.

Q: What's the deal with Tablet Mode??

A: Dual Pane works great, big thanks to owain94! To access it, you must set the LCD density to 128 in ROM Control -> GeneralUI -> LCD Density. Follow the instructions there. However, com.android.Phone.apk WILL crash when receiving a phone call while in Table Mode. There is a modified Phone.apk floating around that fixes this issue, however i need find the source of the modification so i can merge it myself. Too many things like ROM Control stuff and Quiet Hours stuff is plugged in Phone.apk, and i'm not sure they would work well with this modded Phone.apk. So use it at your own discretion for now, i'll be searching for a permanent fix, but i may have to kang owain94 again once he posts his source. :o
