Try settings>apps>camera and clear the data for the camera. If that doesn't work, check your md5sum and try installing again
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Seminoles:
Same happens on mine only if I switch to FFC then video will not work. I clear data and force close camera app in manage applications have to do it a couple of times. A fast way is to clear cache and DaLvik cache under advanced in CWM recovery rear camera work perfect then I just stay away from front facing camera.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
It works. Just switch from 720p/480p (ffc doesn't record that high of resolution). I totally forgot my device tree wasn't updated with the andromadus media profiles (the work on b2g got things a little mixed up and for some reason I forgot to push some changes to github beforehand, but I'll update it today so I don't have to worry about it later on mr2) thanks for letting me know. So yeah. If you're recording ffc make sure you get off 720p/480p. I'll post an updated media profiles later so you can just flash that and not have to worry about it.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] dragonlord785:
Thank you all for the responses!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Seminoles:
Did that and it worked went to 480 but just lines so went to the two lower ones and worked thanks.

On BR7, I am getting that weird font on launcher. Anybody also getting this, I relize that this is ICS issue but it's starting to get on my nerves lol. So if anybody knows a solution other than rebooting, pm me or something. Also, I am using nova launcher prime
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Long press back to kill in developer options. That bug is seen in other devices running ics as well not just ours.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] I2IEAILiiTY:
If you enable force gpu for 2d or whatever it is in the dev settings, it doesn't seem to happen anymore. Someone else also posted this observation as well.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] m2j3sahagon:
Is there a track pad wake for this from?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] cnote74:
no trackpad wake was eliminated in ics, only way to add it is a patch that must be compiled with the framework.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Would you happen to have a link to said patch? I've tried various commits but they seems to be lacking dependencies; that and my track pad is ****ed so I haven't been able to test properly lol
[myTouch 4G Android Development] cnote74:
I know the patch is in the andromadus framework files on github.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Yeah I've looked into theirs as well but their initial commit didn't work and the rest was like patched into their own settings and whatnot. I thought you might have read around and found something new. I've tried looking into doing it manually but I wouldn't be able to test/adjust accordingly (the way I like to work) so it just feels like way too much effort on getting that to work when the buttons just millimeters away work just as well.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jiggamanjb:
Just flashed 2 days ago and I gotta say it's working great and looking great. I have noticed that my bluetooth cuts out overnight at some point. We have a bluetooth home phone we connect our cells to and everyday I've woken up and the bluetooth is on but not connected. If I turn BT on and off it still won't connect. Sometimes a reboot will connect back up but I've had to do a forget and repair one time when nothing else would work. Any known issue why this keeps happening? I rely on the BT handset cause the cell service in my house is crap and if I pick up my actual phone it drops calls all the time. Thanks!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Get me a logcat. Its quite likely I forgot something when I switched from b2g. Its actually very likely and I might know what it is. -.- MR1 was just a sloppy release all over the place and gave me trouble in lots of places it shouldn't have when compiling/uploading. Existz has already committed a patch for one of the things that gave me trouble (that I didn't know about until after I tried resetting everything to make sure that gecko wasn't interfering), now I need to focus more on keeping my remote stuff up to date with what I have locally (which I've been getting better at since I first started...just the way I named some commits at a glance gave me the idea that everything was up to date). I might make a fixed version... but idk yet ... every time I think about doing something like that existz releases/talks about releasing lol.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Fitchman:
Synthetic.Nightmare - Just flashed this as my first and only ROM thanks to glowing reviews on the Q&A thread.

Couple things:

"what doesn't work/what works" - it's blank so it scared me off at first. You should really say that everything works, especially the camera stuff!

Google Now and Wi-Fi calling links were excellent, thanks!

I'd also remind people that if this is their first custom ROM installation, they need to get into fastboot and fastboot flash boot boot.img the included boot.img before they flash with ClockworkMod. That was my sticking point. It was just stuck on the MyTouch 4g splash screen otherwise.

Great job and excellent thread otherwise!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
I think what works sections are a bit redundant, so I just make a features section and a what doesn't work section. Guess I could add on to the features now that I've had more experience with the code (haven't touched that since I started). And you rooted using htcdev correct? From what I've heard flashing roms with that method was a pain.

EDIT: Thanks for the feedback though. I'll update the OP.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Supamike88:
Great rom, haven't had any bugs. Bad battery life for me though. I did flash it at 100%
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Well that's too bad. I can average about 5 hours of screen time on this puppy daily with enough juice to normally get me through the day (with the GPS switch left at on, so I can just use it whenever I need it). How old is your battery? Oh and existz recently that auto rotate was killing battery more than it should if I recall so switching that (and auto brightness) on only when you need it might help
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Okay, I did some cleaning just now. Bluetooth SHOULD be fixed (I did what fixed it last time) and I removed some excess stuff that blackwing had on there for IceColdInsomnia that wasn't needed here. I haven't been able to think straight this morning for some reason (seriously I woke up and my brain was just like "**** today" lol), but we should be set for the next build and even more inline with aospX.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] 0.0:
does it have any toggles in the notification area like AOKP or CM? and the ability to edit them? i like those :)
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
It comes with these toggles. Dunno where existz found them but I like how nice and basic they are. Also they can be shown and hidden by hitting the settings button on the pulldown (long pressing takes you to settings menu) as for editing them, you can't (not easily at least), but I've grown fond of them and all that they are.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
OP + Changelog Updated. Welcome to BR3. Happy 4th of July.

Some fixes include...

Netflix works

Video Camera records (front and back, under 480p)

Blank Emails (Just opened up a bunch of emails and scrolled around and have yet to see any go blank)

^Correct me if I'm wrong though^
[myTouch 4G Android Development] aaraya1516:
Everything works for me so far. Good job.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Thank you for the feedback :) I felt like I was gonna end up quadruple posting or something lol.

ALSO...

SyNthetic_aospX is now on ROM MANAGER. (credit to awesome for making me do it :D)

I'm also hoping to make the OP a little nicer to look at pretty soon with a little help from Saranhai.

Thanks for the support everyone (community + team members).
[myTouch 4G Android Development] aaraya1516:
Is your source public in github? I'm playing with CM9, just wanted to see what you have copied from ACE/whatever else.

It's HOT down here in space city!!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] willshep:
I like the minimalist feel and it feels fast but the battery life is going down faster than a you know what you know where. Anyone recommend a new kernel or something to improve this ROMs battery life?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] aaraya1516:
Check what's using the battery the most and adjust based on that first... Display is using the most on mine, but I like the auto-brightness so I live with it. battery lasted all day for me, just a bit of pandora and some calls, no heavy use since i'm at work.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Hell yeah it is and the A/C in my car is acting up!!

I've been meaning to set up my github with the parts I use that are different from existz (still have to mess around on there a bit and get to know it better), but I still have some things to add which is why I haven't done it yet (I've been building and then adding the few files I missed afterwards). I wouldn't say it's a matter of me being lazy, my focus has just been other places, but it has to be done someday, so I'll try starting on to that when I can today.

I recommend the the stock aospX kernel, as it is built for this rom and is what works best for me. You can try whichever kernel you'd like and see if you can find one more suitable for you.

Here are my governer settings if you think they'd help:

Governer: OnDemandX

Min: 192MHz

Max: 960MHz

This combined with me only using 2G and Wifi with low brightness (I just got throttled not too long ago @ me only using 2G :() gets me through the day easily no matter how much I use my phone and that is with my 2 year old battery that has shown a decrease in performance over time. But that's with my phone and my battery, your results may vary :D

Also (like an idiot I forgot I released this yesterday), it make take some time for everything to settle in. Try letting the battery go through a few cycles to see if that helps improve your battery life as well.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] willshep:
couple hours later (no phone calls)

I'll play with it a few days and see how things go, give a few days to settle in.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] bubonik:
Correct me if I'm wrong but by the look of the solid blue, I would say that something is not letting your phone sleep.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
I flipped through quite a few pages in the original aospX thread in search for some battery status screenshots and they had the same in the picture with 18+ hours of battery (on an older version of the rom). I couldn't remember if it was always like that, but by the looks of it; it was. I would say just let everything settle in a little more. It's only been out for not even 2 full days yet :P
[myTouch 4G Android Development] estallings15:
I like this ROM. I like it a lot. I can't remember the last time I've posted in a thread that I like a ROM. I haven't had to change anything and I ALWAYS have to change something.

Kudos.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Jpimp150:
I've tried damn near every ICS rom in this community.. And this one is probably the best!

Very Very Nice Work OP
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Awesome has made the official Team Inferno app. Feel free to try it out and give some feedback. :)

Team-Inferno.apk
[myTouch 4G Android Development] morbidmrmartin:
The app looks really good! Great job!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] bubonik:
So I installed this rom and I am pleasantly surprised with how well it runs. The solid blue line in battery status and constant drain on battery is from the wifi settings. Its currently set to stay awake permanently. This is easily fixed by changing the setting in advanced wifi settings to never sleep when plugged in.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] anydayoftheweek:
So far no issue, great job :thumbup:
[myTouch 4G Android Development] smirkis:
love this rom. track pad wake? I tried all the files non system/usr/keylayout files from dark unicorn to no avail. tried the trackpad wakes from cm7/gb sense also to no avail.

really digging this rom tho. super smooth for a 2.6 kernel ics rom. I can't wait, til a 3.0.x kernel pops up!

AC!D AUDIO ENGINE V1.0 [JB, ICS]

aospX_mint_chocolate_overlayhack
[myTouch 4G Android Development] pseudoswede:
Inferno Controls (found in Dark Unicorn 2.5 and other ...Awesome... ROMs) has a trackpad wake functionality.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
I've never tried the pimp my rom and audio engine stuff, but everything else should be alright. As long as they're universal ics things, they should be okay. Just make a nandroid backup before and you should be okay, even if something ends up not working the way you want it.

I don't think Awesome posts source. I'd have to adapt it for aospx.

EDIT: just got done adding a few things to the OP newer users may find useful :)
[myTouch 4G Android Development] blue_algae:
how long does your battery last in previous ROM? this ROM has given me the best battery life so I'm inclined to think something besides your ROM has changed. did you install something new? or perhaps upgraded an app?

funny thing is, since battery life is so good for me, I'm using my phone more often since I don't worry as much as before with battery.:cowboy:
[myTouch 4G Android Development] TmobileDash12:
Dang. I've been on the IceColdSanwich ROM, and I was preparing to install this.

Been M.I.A. due to work, school, and other family stuff.

I come back and see this and the 3.0 kernel ! Exciting news, good work everyone!

Now IDK what to do... wait for this ROM to be updated and start from scratch.

Or wait for a jelly bean ROM with project butter and everything.

decisions decisions
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
The kernel/roms won't have everything to begin with. It will still take a little bit of time once it's released to get everything set up right (elgin gtalked me last night and seemed to have found some drivers to port that could bring us vsync, so that's a bit of light to shed on the project butter situation, but like I said it will still take some time, which is what a lot of users around here don't seem to understand. The 3.0 kernel is still in its early stages [though thats not to say elgin hasn't made TONS of progress as a kernel dev and on the kernel itself]) The decision is really up to you though. I'll see about making a fixed build sometime between now and tomorrow depending on how well everything goes (since I haven't had time to work on gecko, this should go a lot more smoothly than MR1 lol)
[myTouch 4G Android Development] saddler2kx:
Hey Nightmare I have one more question to ask u as well, What Jelly Bean rom do u recommend for T-mobile Mytouch 4G
[myTouch 4G Android Development] TmobileDash12:
Damn. Major respect for him. And you. And to the rest of the porters/devs.

Sounds good! I think I could hold on for a while. Been using the same ROM for months :P

Thanks for the detailed response! I appreciate it.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jiggamanjb:
Still want a logcat? Sounds like you know the prob so just lemme know if it will help or not.

Do you post your revisions on the main page?

Thanks again for all your work! :good:
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
I really haven't tried any of the jb roms other than the first release of toasted marshmellow and a very early version of 0.0's saga port so I don't think I can give you a valid recommendation. I'm more focused on helping contribute to aospx as best I can so I'm not just mooching off of all of existz work.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
It should work after this. It worked last time at least lol. I'll let you know though. And I keep a changelog in the second post that I try to always keep updated in addition to the first post; as well as creating a new post with details when I release. In addition, you can actively track development concerning me through my github linked in my signature.

Didn't see any update to flash so just wait for MR2 or is the OP download link to a new file? just asking
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Okay so I've built MR1F. Just need to finalize some Bluetooth crap. Cant test Bluetooth right now so I'm not working on fixing anything yet. Might have something later today depending on how this turns out. Also can anyone confirm that br7 had fully working Bluetooth? Not like the half broken one in MR1.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] netter123:
Installed this ROM and then the Google Now for ICS as linked in the 1st post. I'm trying to get offline dictation working because my signal often sucks. I'm using the default Android keyboard, but when I turn off wifi/network data (or just use airplane mode), the mic button greys out and is unusable until reestablishing an internet connection. I double checked that I used M7_Offline.zip to install and have the free space, and other aspects of Google Now all seem working. Is there perhaps an option somewhere I need to enable to have the offline capability downloaded to the phone?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] wealthy23:
Blue tooth works great for me
[myTouch 4G Android Development] netter123:
I got it working by going into Language & input, where I saw there were 2 entries for "Google voice typing" that were both selected. I deselected one, which didn't work, but then I reselected that one and deselected the other entry - then it worked. Do other people have 2 entries for "Google voice typing" like this?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Alright well I went for the same configuration in BR7 and just got back from a pretty decent drive with no cutouts or anything. It stayed on the whole time so it should be okay now. Gonna start getting MR1F prepped for upload and do all that shebang. Stay tuned.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] mokee92:
Some minor bugs I've come across!

I feel like I should contribute a little by posting some minor bugs that I've come across using this ROM extensively.

-phone mic is disabled when regular mic-less headphones are connected.

-minor screen lock bug. when locking the phone...for a split second the homescreen flashes after lock. yes I have the force gpu rendering checked. I also have transition and window animation at 1x. disabling them makes no difference. I have flashed twice.

-no quick options (the semi circular) menu in the built-in web browser.

-using camera effects such as big eyes shuts down camera app. (in video)

-overall volume kind of on the lower side. not a big deal at all.

--WANT some customization options for status bar and dock. :fingers-crossed:

--WANT trackpad button wake. sorry I know it has been mentioned before but I am just very used to it.

-digital clock widget, poweramp and other widgets freeze! like a lot!

-system clock freezes as well (this is major). waking up in the morning becomes sort of a problem. today I was late for school cuz I thought it was 6:56 when it was actually 7:45.

-keyboard response slow sometimes.

Just to let you people know that I'm still running BR7. Is MR1 worth it? Also, will the OTA update erase everything on the phone. Or should update via the whole flashing and crap! What do you people recommend?

Anyways, love the ROM synthetic. Keep up the good work. :highfive:
[myTouch 4G Android Development] wealthy23:
I mean Bluetooth works for me on the current build the MR1 and on BR7 should I update to the MR1F?

Edit... Ota popped up so cool
[myTouch 4G Android Development] pseudoswede:
When you flashed this ROM, did you format /system? I think this was the root cause to my freeze-up issues--including the system clock one. Didn't help I had the stomach flu and was so confused why it was light outside but my clock said 2:06am.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
I added the aospx issue tracker to the op so you can use that as a reference (i.e. if its reported there, it's being taken care of on the DHD side and will likelly be fixed here as well when it's done there). Everything else I need logcats and details as per usual. You can update however you'd like; I vary from update to update when I'm not updating (but I aways test with a full wipe), check out the changelog and see if it seems worth it to you.

MR1F (minor update w/fixes):

-Pulled- Damn wifi hogs ****ed up my upload... ended up being superuser was broken and I didnt notice til now. Will reupload later or whatever. **** like this makes me care less and less about releases tbh... (seriously the most difficult part of this release and last release were the damn uploads)

@pseudoswede: now that you mention it, I didn't experience it much until I dirty-flashed MR1. Then it happened about once/twice every week.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] TmobileDash12:
Just got home and saw this. Yay!

It's been a while since I flashed something. [other than my clothes. jk.]

Would the aospX_mint_chocolate_overlayhack.zip kernel work with this ROM? or is it included/not recommended?

So excited :P
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
I'll get back to you when I get home. Hopefully my upload went through correctly this time.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] wealthy23:
I will just wait till you ok things cuz I downloaded off the Ota and it downloaded smoothly but you said super user might be messed up so I will just wait been using MR1 been super stable

You eager beavers. I'll update the OP in a minute.

Oh and I DID have a problem with 720p on my first install (not to say that you will, I was just eager to test it so I could release and didn't let it boot up).

Just wiped clean and tried again and all's good.

Time to update the OTA then the OP and wind the day on down.

Well phone didn't blow up, so all is good so far. Received OTA notice, downloaded, ok'ed cache wipe, ok'ed install, and phone did the rest. 4ext installed update and rebooted on it's own.
