On S-On unlocked with latest radio

No problem with camera zoom fx but there is problem with pudding camera...

However, I got sd mounting issue after installing File Manager IO on this phone :(

After formatting the sd card from windows and sd formatter, and when the moment i started to snap the photo, the sd card suddenly unmounted again

p/s: I doubt that there might be some bugs during writing/mounting data to sd card. I didnt faced this problem on alpha I and I didnt have problem at alpha II after formatting once and reflash the rom if not mistaken
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dhkr234:
I'm guessing that your mistake is formatting the sdcard from wondoze. IMO, its a VERY VERY bad idea to let wondoze do anything, ever. Try reformatting it from Android and see if the problem goes away. Settings --> Storage --> Erase SDcard.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] d3athb4dishonor:
Thanks I did this last night because I thought I fried my usb port. Everythings back to normal lesson learned about flashing with my charger plugged up.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] d3athb4dishonor:
Also my front facing camera wasn't upside down like the bug report says.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dhkr234:
d3athb4dishonor:

If your camera isn't upside down, something didn't flash right. I think kernel. You sure you flashed the kernel? Check settings --> about phone.

And that stuff about flashing with USB unplugged... nonsense. The process of writing the new system image is NOT affected by the state of the USB plug in any way at all. Reboots, power cycles, battery pulls is what changed things for you in this regard.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] marc12868:
True story. I flashed when it was plugged in with no problems.

Also battery life is awesome! :D When I took my break like 3 hours into my 4 hour shift I still had 100% battery life and that's with data on and syncing on and all that good stuff. Before it would be at like 70% if not lower.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ravi_n:
Agreed. The only oddity I've noticed along those lines is that if CM9 is plugged in (AC or USB, IIRC) when it reboots (or turns on, I think) it won't charge until I unplug and replug (and my unusual battery could be part of that).
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] blackknightavalon:
Or boot a Linux distro from USB and format using Gparted. That's how I got two 64GB cards to an Android-readable state.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Spidey01:
Thank you kindly!

Also: my fiancée who addicted me to Triple Town in the first place, agrees with me that playing that game being worth more than my battery lasting longer than an hour, is sad lol.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dhkr234:
Yeah that too, but you really want to teach a wondoze newb how to make a penguin fly? :eek:
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ravi_n:
Did you go with FAT32 or do something better? I wanted to use a better filesystem, but didn't see a simple way past the permissions issues with typical Linux filesystems.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Caveman Joe:
In Alpha 3, after a complete wipe and reinstall:

Anyone who had the same problem with changing LCD density, the app "LCD density modder pro" is pretty good, and works where lcddensity doesn't.

But a new problem has arrived! When using a density lower than 190, the phone doesn't work! Try to place or receive a call, and the phone apparently stops with an unhelpful error message (basically, "Unfortunately, I've stopped. Nope, not gonna tell you why. Good luck debugging that one, pal!"). Try to use mobile data; no joy. After a minute or so, a popup will appear, telling me that a new SIM card has been installed, and I'll have to reboot if I want to use the network.

Any ideas?

wifi calling??

Is wifi calling working in this version yet? It's a must for me right now i'm on Inquisition and the newest version works like a dream on it
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Spidey01:
A look at /proc/filesystems on alpha3 shows that it supports ext2, ext3, ext4, vfat, and ntfs, I don't know what CM9 will automatically mount when you plug in a Micro SD card but they should all work at the level of the mount command. My tablet doesn't mount ext* formatted cards automagically but I haven't tried on any other systems.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] j.books:
settings>security>lock screen> menu unlock

is it me, or is this not working?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dhkr234:
The only supported filesystem is crap32.

Permission issues would be non-existent. SD read/write is by user sdcard_r, all other users have RO access only.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] overhauling:
I'm experiencing this issue as well, but unplugging and plugging back in works fine.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] cerwidwen:
Mine did that on A1 & A2 but now is fixed on Alpha 3. I can now reboot with charger plugged in and it goes right to charge when it boots, just like it should. I didn't do anything special. Wonder what the difference is.....?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] rawdaddymagraden:
I believe if I'm not mistaken is that with cm9 at least, if you go to 190 or lower it puts the system into tablet mode which makes sense if your phone isn't working and are having sim trouble
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] AgentCherryColla:
Great battery life. I can finally make all day with good use on this kernel. Thanks :D
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ac3theone:
can you send me the link with wifi calling that works on Inquisition, i can never find a working version
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] cj chitwood:
Is wifi calling 1 of the apps that requires the sense framework? This post was authored using voice to text. So far I'm loving it.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] cerwidwen:
Waitwut? Is this sarcasm or anti-sarcasm or reverse anti-sarcasm?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] gtmaster303:
Is this really still considered alpha?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] mr.e.ferran:
Double reverse anti-around the corner sarcasm! For an alpha this is crazy! I was on and off the phone doing random things:fb, text, calling the wife, internet, tapatalk, regular gmail, my work exchange account and all that good stuff...battery problems from alpha 1 and 2 are gone! I'm seriously at 49% right now after 19hrs. I'm not going to charge it tonight so I can see how deep sleep treats the phone with kernel v3. I'll upload a screenie in the morning when brush my teeth!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] CoNsPiRiSiZe:
Loving battery now. . . Can't decide if I wanna give my sis the phone with bulletproof or this as it has no problems for her use!

Keep it Classy, Cali.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] gtmaster303:
hmm, your wifi is mostly off, no GPS usage that I can see, and screen brightness is probably turned down or auto?

well of course you're going to get good battery life!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] kornyone:
Alpha3 -- How alpha is it?

We think Alpha3 provides sustainability and usability with battery consumption, management, and performance. We also feel that, besides the common and obvious issues we have left to address that are outlined under our current buglist in the OP, Alpha3 is good for daily usage.

This is an alpha until it's official CyanogenMod public (github) and in Gerrit (reviews). We hope to get nightlies up and running, like Pyramid, soon after.

The stable release will then fall in line with all other CyanogenMod 9 supported devices.

Besides my own personal opinion of the stability/usability, I have reason to expect we are nearing being public. It just might take a few more days.

Of course, we will be working on the remaining bugs as soon as time allows.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] CoNsPiRiSiZe:
Yea I've been out all day no chance to use WiFi like I usaly do. I always have brightness at 100% I like it to look crisp + usable in light.

Who needs GPS when I know where everything in my city is?? ;)

Keep it Classy, Cali.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] AgentCherryColla:

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] miked79928:
I can confirm the upside down front facing camera. Other than that, no issues!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Spidey01:
I can atest that Bluetooth works fine :-). I use it daily and the only oddity is Bluetooth linked to my tablet via Tablet Talk, + WiFi on but sleep when not charging, and data on, seems to keep the processor largely at 1512 Mhz instead of something lower. Which eats some juice, today I'm dropping it to bluetooth and voice/text coverage.

It's nice being able to use my phone again, and not have to wonder if I shoulda brought my external battery pack along!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] tbalden:
which leds? no problem here so far, except Caps/Alt, but thats known issue
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] mr.e.ferran:
a little sleep time in there and tweaking set cpu but this is what can be done on an alpha!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] miked79928:
I just noticed my games are not working. Is there a fix or work around for this?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] kornyone:
TBalden checked in a change to the kernel which helps address touchscreen issues with games and certain apps. This should be included in a release soon.

Also for the Menu unlock option in Screen unlock -- this could be an Overlay option, I will play with it and see if I can enable it. It could be greyed out for some other reason.

I have not had time to look more into FFC upside down, but believe me -- as soon as I can I will, I want to join hangouts from the Doubleshot :)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dhkr234:
Menu unlock should always be greyed out if you're using a security unlock (face, pattern, pin, password), or if the label is a brain fart, a device withOUT a physical menu button. Possible that it doesn't realize that the buttons are real rather than capacitive or OSK? Unless somebody brain farted when generating the label, menu unlock should not be confused with menu WAKE.

What would be nice, is trackball wake.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] AdamWill:
The MT4GS stock battery is just _a bad battery_, period. It doesn't run well on the stock ROM or any third party ROM.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] RazoE:
The picture on my lock screen is upside down, but when I unlock it, its right-side up.

Another issue I noticed is when I use the Nexus torch, the widget at the top of my notification bar shows that its on, and it won't shut off. If I keep tapping it, I get "Error System UI has stopped working", and nothing works for a few seconds while the phone loads stuff up.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] cj chitwood:
Update to my last book:

I turned on wifi and connected, then turned the screen off and set it down. Another 45 minutes have gone by since, and the battery drain has been a flat level horizontal line since then. The phone has been waking up on its own for lengthy minute-or-two segments all day, but on wifi it's more like seconds at a time. Many more, further apart. Looks like check-ins or something.

Is there no screenshot option here? Bulletproof had a built-in one I loved, where I held power and tapped Home and it would save it to a screenshots folder. I'd love to see a similar feature for CM9.

The entire screen or are you using face unlock?

Have you tried wipe/reflash?

---------- Post added at 02:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:50 PM ----------

It suits my needs okayish, which is all any manufacturer goes for in stock -- suit the masses, let the geeks solve their own problems.

That said, I certainly wouldn't complain if a double capacity battery and fitting back panel arrived in my mailbox next week.

Fella can dream.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dhkr234:
If, by "G1" you mean "HTC DREAM", you're off your rocker.

First off, those stock-fit chinese 1400 mAh batteries are only about 900 mAh -- I know this because I bought a couple of those 2-for-$5 batteries from Amazon -- yeah, I know exactly what battery you're talking about. Second, that phone's CPU didn't have deep sleep. They could barely make 12 hours.

7 hours 18 minutes, down 25%... means that the whole battery would be dead after.... about 29 hours. Not to forget that you probably want to sleep some time in there, and battery won't drain as fast. That's sure a whole lot better than DREAM.

Also FYI: the "long battery life" feature was with respect to the "battery killer" feature of the previous version, which could drain the battery from 100% to 0% in less than 10 hours of keeping the screen off full time. Go read back through this thread about 'deep sleep' being broken.

Didn't you just say that 7 hours 18 min = 25% drop? So you can be out for 14h32m and still have 50%. Seems to me that your goal is met....

ALL implementations of wake-on-trackball have been configurable.

When your screen is off, it goes into deep-sleep? That's what matters most for extending battery life.

How is that backwards? Turn off one radio and save the power it sucks down. Otherwise it will be listening as hard as it can on all the radios. Hint: it saves even more if you put it in airplane mode.

Ok, so the "long battery life" feature IS working for you, because without it, as I've mentioned, it'll rape your battery like a hoard of Roman soldiers.

AGAIN, something WAS wrong.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dhkr234:
Actually, the "2g only" thing was nonsense then, and remains nonsense now. The 2G radio will use more power than 3G because it needs to run FAR FAR longer in order to transfer the same amount of data.

Note that battery meters sometimes aren't linear.

Also note that I once ran my HTC Vision for an ENTIRE WEEK on one charge. Mobile data disabled, WCDMA-only. Occasional use of GPS. Trip to DC and forgot to bring a wire to plug it in. :D

Its been mentioned a couple times in this thread, there is an application (on market) called "cpu spy". It will give you a breakdown of the time the CPU spends in all the different states.

If airplane mode is eating your battery like that, it means that you have some really pooly written application that is perpetually trying to do something with the unavailable network. Definitely not normal.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] cj chitwood:
And compared to this, you rag me for saying the doubleshot lasting less than a day isn't long battery life? LOL!

Of course, I guess in context with battery killer...

Ah... I had that before... will do again

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] edwardng:
not sure whether i am the only one who feels the phone was/is in a super hot condition especially the below part of battey backdoor of the phone.

Is it related to software? rom?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] tbalden:
a quick report on kernel side:

i've messed around with a non-AOSP sense kernel (linux 3.0.16) for some other roms, and could port the TVOUT functionality to my 3.0 sense kernel (original htc pyramid source ported to doubleshot for sense based roms) . I'll just have to do the same with this AOSP/cyanogenmod kernel that is used in this ROM, and we'll be able to use the bruteforce Tvout app with cm9 as well (that along with sixaxis compatibility makes cm9 doubleshot a game console with game emulators) :D

I'll release an updated kernel flashable along with the games' touchscreen fix in a couple of days.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dhkr234:
You totally misunderstand me. My point is that there are ways to achieve the absurd, like week-long battery life.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] okeeblow:
This is without a doubt the best ROM I've ever used for this phone. It's great to have DSPManager back, but no sign of RenderFX. Is that still a part of CM9? I miss the 3700k night mode from my Espresso and from kornyone's CM7 DS alpha.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] marc12868:
I'm not sure if this is a problem with just my phone or not (if it is I will try a clean install of alpha 3), but whenever I boot from CM9 into a different rom using bootmanager and boot back my phone will not be able to charge unless I reflash CM9... If someone else could test to see if it does it for them that would be helpful.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dhkr234:
It is beyond certainty that you are mistaken. Rewriting the system image is completely unrelated in ANY way to whether the phone will or will not accept a charge. It is something ELSE you are doing that is possibly interfering with charging.

You can try unplugging and pulling the battery for 5 minutes.

You could have a poor connection between the phone and the cable, and the association you're making may be coincidental.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] marc12868:
It's not poor contact because I can charge it just fine if I boot into a different rom just when I go back to cm9 it won't accept a charge until I reinstall... I will try a fresh install and see if that makes a difference though.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] overhauling:
Make sure you run the "Set-up Phone ROM" setting on Boot Manager when you're in your main ROM. Not doing so can lead to kernel problems.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] marc12868:
I actually didn't think about that... I set up the phone rom when it was still on alpha 1 so it didn't have a 3.0 kernel. So I just set up the phone rom and it seems to work just fine now. Thanks. Sometime we overlook the simplest of things...:o

Random shuffle glitch

Ran into an odd problem today..

Was using the google music app to listen to a podcast today at work. Was fine for about an hour, then all of a sudden it starts to shuffle the items in that 'album' rapidly. Later on today I was streaming something through the browser and then the music app starts up without engaging it at all. Even after a restart it does the same thing :confused: . Wow actually as I was writing this I go to IHeartRadio app, select a radio station, and it starts to cycle through all of the radio stations in that category. After I exited the app it started right back up doing the same thing :eek:
