[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
A logcat would definitely help me try to figure out the BT issues you all are having. :p
[myTouch 4G Android Development] stlouie65:
Let me try to get one, I'm having the same issue with BT. GREAT ROM! :D

Here is the logcat http://db.tt/wKRgOA6R
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
nvm looking into it
[myTouch 4G Android Development] stlouie65:
Thanks mate
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
So I removed main.conf from system/etc/Bluetooth and rebooted before going out to buy dinner (since its something new) and it took a minute but it connected on the first try. Idk if this is just one of those hit or miss instances where it hit though...
[myTouch 4G Android Development] stlouie65:
Ok, I'll give that a try. Thanks :D

Edit: No go, didn't pair. It seen the MAC Address, but didn't pair.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] mecheng:
Here's a log from this morning. Wouldn't connect to BT in car and then had a random freeze. Had to yank the battery. This log is from fresh boot and more attempts to connect with BT.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Dunno about the random freeze, haven't one of those since... I don't even remember haha, but after looking through my source, I have a couple of ideas as to what went wrong with BT :) Hopefully after I get to checking everything out, I'll have a solution for you all.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Unfortunately, I don't have any news on bluetooth this very second but I do have a kernel that allows you to record 720p. Feel free to give it a shot and report back!

http://d-h.st/kc6

(For now, please only use this on BR6, as it has updated touchscreen drivers to remove some legacy hacks most ics roms still have. I am going to go back to frosted cherry and recompile as soon as I can for those on the older ICS roms, plz be patients.)

EDIT: reverted some parts back to frosted cherry, not 100% sure it will work though. I'll need a tester on one of the older ics roms soon. Shoot me a PM.

-thanks to paulb_nl-
[myTouch 4G Android Development] cnote74:
Great job synthetic the new kernel works great and 720p is sweet.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] dorqus:
Thanks, going to try this tonight hopefully!

edit: testing this now, so far looks good - will flash the BT fix as well. 720p video +++ :)

Thank you!!!!!!!!!!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Those with BT problems try this boot.img out.

http://d-h.st/Nvq

I forgot I made some changes to init.glacier.rc that may have been what made it act up. You can place it in the original rom zip and flash that (the easiest way). Hope that fixes BT :fingers-crossed:
[myTouch 4G Android Development] estallings15:
Dang man. You're on fire!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
I know, right?

Good ol' Frosted Cherry w/ 720p (tested and verified on MIUI v4 by chssoccerplayer): http://d-h.st/ymq

:D
[myTouch 4G Android Development] cnote74:
Does the new Bluetooth fix boot.img still have the 720p recording?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Hm should have included it. No. You'll have to flash the kernel over it.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] cnote74:
OK no problem man.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] dorqus:
The new kernel is working fine for me, ironically XDA app force closes :) (I've not flashed the updated boot.img, perhaps that fixes it?) Will test BlueTooth tomorrow.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
The xda app has been giving me fcs at random as well. There's nothing in the boot.img that will fix that.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] stlouie65:
I flashed the boot.img, now it doesn't see my MAC Desktop anymore. It use to see it, but never connect. What can I try next?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] dorqus:
OK thanks Synthetic.Nightmare!

Never mind then :)

edit: Changed the phone (back) to 240 density and XDA is working ok now....go figure,I like to have it at 220.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Let me get back to you on that later. How did you go about flashing it?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] stlouie65:
fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot reboot-recovery

wiped caches

fixed permissions

reboot

I'm good until it gets fixed, just trying to help test the fixes.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Appreciate that. Hmm... I'll look into that and do some tests of my own whenever I can. I have plans for the next few days, but I think I can find some time to try a few things out.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] stlouie65:
Thanks mate. Appreciate all you do
[myTouch 4G Android Development] gd6noob:
is this new kernal already included in the first post or do i have to manually add it? Im afraid to do this manually as i might screw something up..
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
No, it's not included in the rom and idk if I'll reupload since BR7 might be just around the corner.

Flashing a kernel is not difficult at all though.

Just download the kernel: http://d-h.st/kc6

Reboot into recovery.

Wipe cache + dalvik cache.

Install "aospX_grapefruit.zip" from SD card.

Reboot.

:D
[myTouch 4G Android Development] ...Awesome...:
Great Job Synthetic!! Thanks for improving this 2 yr old phone you and elginsk8r, cnote, 0.0 for everything u guys do.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] saranhai:
oh come on now Awesome, don't be modest. you contributed a TON as well ;)
[myTouch 4G Android Development] gd6noob:
I guess SVoice doesnt work for this rom?

Also, does the JB version gapps work for ICS?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
There are probably more libs to it or something. Also this rom comes with gapps already
[myTouch 4G Android Development] gd6noob:
I flashed the grapefruit kernal, 720p video works fine.. the bluetooth doesnt however.. it connects sometimes... weird..

is the frosted cherry kernal better?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Its an issue with the rom. Nothings changed in the kernel in regards to bluetooth. I'm already aware of the problem. And no. Its outdated in comparison to grapefruit.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] gd6noob:
So will there be a fix for the rom?

Or will I use this kernel towards a different rom?

---------- Post added at 12:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:53 AM ----------

Also having problem with getting HD widgets to work.. Keeps saying something about the framework and needing to enable root access which I have...

Anyone know a good weather/clock widget to use??

[myTouch 4G Android Development] Supamike88:
Does it help a lot to be 100% supercharged with the V6 Supercharger? I'm really trying to find more ways to make this as snappy as Gingerbread
[myTouch 4G Android Development] JDMDC2:
Is it just me or does the 720p recording seem slower than before like on gingerbread. I've also noticed that the videos are recorded in mp4 format . And before on gingerbread they where 3gp @ 30 fps.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Just because something is working doesn't mean it automatically works fully. There are still more adjustments and fixes to be made. Which I probably won't even get to do until Saturday.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] JDMDC2:
Synthetic thanks for your hard work
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
I may be able to build BR7 tonight. Though I might not release until later because I want to make sure this one is as stable as possible (Bluetooth not being hit or miss, better media_profile for improved camera settings, etc.)
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Supamike88:
Take your time man. Thanks for sharing your stuff.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] gd6noob:
dont rush man... the current build is pretty good.. most of the features work...

take your time and put together BR7...
[myTouch 4G Android Development] stlouie65:
This phone (MT4G) will never die with guys like you. You guys know the meaning of a $.... Why buy a new phone everytime the a new phone comes out with a nice ROM! Just port and enjoy :D
[myTouch 4G Android Development] dorqus:
Synthetic.Nightmare - really appreciate all the hard work that you are putting into keeping this phone alive and getting the video camera to work in 720p! I can get a new phone starting next week, but I'm going to hold onto the MyTouch4g for a while longer now! Thanks again!

[myTouch 4G Android Development] gd6noob:
WOW.. nice nice... pretty quick... I havent warmed the BR6 with grapefruit kernel and this came out..

Im guessing we dont need to manually flash the kernel..
[myTouch 4G Android Development] 0.0:
In the change log, it states something about supporting hspa+. Didn't all ROMs support it since T-Mobile uses hspa+?

Sent from my T-Mobile myTouch 4G
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Hspa+ support to systemUI.

And no. The fixed kernel comes bundled in.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] 0.0:
sorry for being a noob at this, but hspa+ being supported in the SystemUI means...what exactly?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
The little drawable in the status bar UI.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] gd6noob:
the icon in the status bar, i presume
[myTouch 4G Android Development] trofmoc:
HMMMMM

This is really nice. Even great granny grunt enjoys it. Thanks, bt is ook:d:d
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Supamike88:
Only problem I've had is that YouTube fcd once when I tried to upload a video
[myTouch 4G Android Development] wealthy23:
Perfect rom in many ways man only thing I wish I had was just custom lock screen shortcuts and also custom pull down bar shortcuts other than that I honestly think I can deal without because stable cam and video recorder man beats alot of those other two features I love ICS
[myTouch 4G Android Development] estallings15:
Any idea why I'd lose data during calls on 3G and H?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] darjama:
I've been using the Notification Toggle app to give me some easy to find shortcuts. There's also Widget Locker for some added lockscreen options.

Is video recording on the rear camera broken for anyone else in BR7? I tried both 720p and 480p, but neither works. No error message, it just doesn't record. FFC works fine.

Aside from that, this rom does pretty much anything I could ask for. My only gripe is the screen orientation doing a 180 on wake. I know it's a problem on pretty much every ICS rom, but is there any kind of patch or hack or kludge that helps?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Supamike88:
Camera works fine for me. I've never experienced the screen rotate problem myself
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Could it be your service? Anyone else experiencing anything similar?

+1

@darjama, did you do a full wipe and/or restore any apps with tibu?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] wealthy23:
OK thanks man and yeah did you do a full wipe my cam and vid cam is perfect on this rom
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Supamike88:
I restored my data with my Nandroid Backup and everything is working fine
[myTouch 4G Android Development] CableMan67:
180 on wake up rotation

Same here, getting the 180 on wake screen rotation, I did do a full wipe and only restored data with TB.

I've had it also before on a previous version maybe BR3 or BR4, I changed to a different kernel and did not see it.

Not sure if it's all ICS, this ROM, kernel or restore of data?

Anybody getting it when waking up?

I'm using the default governor: SmartassV2 268/1036
[myTouch 4G Android Development] trofmoc:
SOMETIMES-

Bt pairs and connects but voice in call works sometimes, have to reboot phone or bt to hear. Other wise best yet-thanks
[myTouch 4G Android Development] gd6noob:
the 720p recoding not working... when i press the record button, it just highlights but doesnt do anything.. Havent tried BT yet..

When I wipe, I use the "Wipe all partitions except SD card" option, is this the best option to use? or just use Wipe Data, then Cache + Davlik?

Doesnt Wipe All Partition do more wiping, which is better?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] darjama:
No, I did a clean wipe for BR6, but I thought I'd try it without to save myself the hassle of redoing my accounts, widgets, etc. I guess I should have. But I did a fix permissions from recovery and that did the trick, the camcorder is back in action.

It's weird that some people don't have the screen flip problem. I thought it was universal. It's the only thing at this point that would push me back towards CM7. But I'm too addicted to the better widgets and gapps in ICS.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
To all those with problems, try a clean install with no restores, just redownload and see if it remains. If it's still there on pure stock with no restores then I'll also likely need a logcat to look into it (since I'm not experiencing this myself). On the plus side, I'm currentlly downloading from the OTA Updater ;) About to see how this thing flashes.

EDIT2: Updated through the OTA. We're good now. :)
[myTouch 4G Android Development] cnote74:
No problems with camera on my end everything works good after a full wipe in 4ext recovery. Plus I've restored 34 apps with titanium backup.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] gd6noob:
+1, fixing permissions worked.. now I can record in 720p perfectly... have yet to try BT.. will do it later and report back
[myTouch 4G Android Development] headcreepz:
As for the screen flip problem, Ive never had it and this is the first Ive heard of it.....don't know what to say except do a full wipe. This is running great thanx for the hard work Synthetic!!!:good:
[myTouch 4G Android Development] mybestway:
have other download link? i can't download from googlecode.com
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Old link to Minus posted to OP as a mirror.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] mybestway:
sorry , didn't notice it:silly:

thanx!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] NatsuDragneell:
I love this ROM ! :good: thanks for your hard work synthetic :thumbup:
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Supamike88:
I always wipe all partions except sd card, then reboot recovery, then flash rom. Then after first boot i reboot into recovery, wipe dalvik and cache, then restore data from my Nandroid Backup
[myTouch 4G Android Development] NatsuDragneell:
So far everything working but I'm am having the distorted text problem in apps an some times system I did a fresh install full wipe x3
[myTouch 4G Android Development] JDMDC2:
What kernel is better? Frosted cherry 720 or grape fruit kernel? And does grape fruit have 720p . Thanks.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] mybestway:
oh , I also would like to ask this question here:highfive:
[myTouch 4G Android Development] DKStunna108:
Nav buttons?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] wealthy23:
Great question I wonder which is better also in battery life

But for 720p grapefruit does work it's the default kernel with this rom

---------- Post added at 05:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:24 AM ----------

I think nav buttons are only cm based roms not aospx
[myTouch 4G Android Development] 0.0:
Actually, I believe only aokp ROMs have it implemented for our device. I never seen a cm or aosp ROM with nav buttons

Sent from my T-Mobile myTouch 4G
[myTouch 4G Android Development] wealthy23:
o ok ops sorry i got it mixed up not sure what aokp really is tho i will look it up i know the diff between cm and pure aosp eventhough cm is based on aosp but thanks for the help
[myTouch 4G Android Development] gd6noob:
grapefruit is the lastest complied kernel. Which is also included in BR7.. BT and 720p recording works.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] gd6noob:
So Ive tested the BT and seems to work without any problems.. awesome!

Thanx
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Yeah that still hasn't been sorted in ics. Its a known issue. Just go into developer options in settings and turn on long press back to kill and kill whatever messes up if it goes all garbled on you.

And as gd6 said, grapefruit is more up-to-date and has updated drivers for touchscreen to remove the legacy hack we used so it is the one i recommend for this rom. I rebuilt frosted cherry with 720p for use with older ics roms. If you're not using this or your rom doesn't have the touchscreen hacks removed, I'd suggest that one.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] DKStunna108:
Can we get a minor update with nav buttons
[myTouch 4G Android Development] 0.0:
For now, just use an app, like button savior. Better than nothing

[myTouch 4G Android Development] blue_algae:
the first ROM that is not Sense based I used that I don't get keys problem on virtual keyboard. really great!!!! :D :D :D thanks clicked :)
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Nicraz:
I became a fan of this rom about a month ago. Finally today I had time to flash the newest version. Wiped dalvik cache, did factory reset, etc. but used a brand new 8gb sd card. I was able to flash it but when trying to download apps from the Play Store I kept getting error. So I tried flashing back my nandroid backup and to my surprise the file was damaged :( Now the brand new 8gb sd card doesn't work and the old 2gb sd card is starting to crap out on me. I couldn't copy the zip file in order to flash it from that one.

Now I'm without Synthetic's latest rom and without an sd card.

What could have caused this and what could have prevented me from downloading apps from the Play Store. Just fyi I was connected to Wi-Fi and there was reliable internet connection.

Thanks.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Have you tried formatting the new SD card? Also what errors did you get from the play store?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] pyr0sphere:
How long have you used it for? If this is true, i might actually downgrade from jb back to ics
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Nicraz:
After I posted I formatted the 8gb sd card and it's working again, thanks. I just tried the Play Store and I was able to download Titanium Backup but then it was nowhere to be found, the "Open" button doesn't even appear in the Play Store, only the uninstall. I tried downloading Juice Defender and that downloaded with no problems. Perhaps I missed something in the thread regarding Titanium Backup (?) If so, I apologize....

On another note, once before after flashing a new rom and registering my gmail account, my apps started downloading right away. That didn't happen this time, is it a sort of hit or miss thing with that?

Thanks for replying!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
I've been able to download and use TiBu on BR7 just fine. Dunno why it would do that for you. Try clearing up your market's data and cache and then retry.

If I recall, that feature was removed from the android source or something. I think there was a discussion about it in existz thread, but I can't remember all of it. Either way, I've found that feature to be more of an inconvenience rather than helpful.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Nicraz:
I was able to download and open it after clearing the market's cache. Happy to be trying out your latest rom. Thank you!!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] DrumRobC:
GPS not working. I've flashed twice now, ensured it was a full-wipe both times - really want to like this ROM as it appears stable, but like to use GPS.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
GPS works. Check your downloads md5sum. It might have been a bad download.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] DrumRobC:
I should've said that, I did an md5sum check before flashing 2nd time and it matches.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Supamike88:
Download GPS Status from the Play Store and click tools then click Manage A-GPS State then reboot
[myTouch 4G Android Development] DrumRobC:
Tried that, notification area perpetually reads, "Searching for GPS"...
[myTouch 4G Android Development] aleem15:
Does this update have the track pad wake? I tried to find it in the menus but couldn't.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Nope but it might be in the next one. I can't really test it so let's just hope the changes i make work when the time comes for me to build.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] aleem15:
Thanks. I look forward to it.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] NatsuDragneell:
Does Awesome beats /dps manager work with aospX ?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] dorqus:
GPS works rock solid for me,I will attach my gps.conf file, push to /system/etc/ and set permissions to be rw-r--r--

Will send link to file later, can't attach from the phone.

Only odd issue is that when a call came in I didn't see the display of the caller, had too wake up the phone with a button then answer it.

And yes,I did a full wipe before installing.

I'm using stock cpu settings.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] mymeatb18:
Best ics rom I have come across. I need a good camera and this rom has a great camera and camcorder. Just wish it was a kang. But definitely sticking with this.

Dsp manager doesn't install. Don't know about awesome beats.

GPS is fine for I use that everyday at work
[myTouch 4G Android Development] THEindian:
Whats the difference? I mean y does kang make a difference?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
idk. I don't use it

I just got a call and the screen woke as it rang. Stock settings, etc.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] eShrooms:
Love this ROM. My only issue is the lockscreen being upside down when I wake the phone. Is there a kernel that doesn't have this issue and doesn't eat battery life away?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Is this happening while running clean stock? If its not reproducible while running clean stock (no restores, etc.) then its not an issue with the rom. I've never experienced the screen upside down issue. Also a logcat would help.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] mymeatb18:
well isnt the difference that a kang allows for more customization of the rom? just judging from what i have seen in kang roms as in the dark unicorn resurrected which had the "rom control app" in the system settings.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Lol that's not what a kang is. That's the aokp project.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] THEindian:
"Kang" means to borrow w/out permission. I am sure Synthetic.Nightmare wouldn't want you to kang his awesome rom. You mean, AndroidOpenKangProject (AOKP), they called it that because its basically Open Source with a couple alterations.

Re: [ROM][ICS][8/23/12] SyNthetic_aospX 1.0.0-BR7 [WIP]

Thanks for all the work on this great looking ROM. Everything appears to be working well except I've noticed the automatic setting for the display fluctuates brightness levels more than I'm use to seeing. Room conditions are unchanging. Has anyone else experienced this?

Thanks again! :)
