yes this happens to some people but not all. It's tough to catch w/a logcat, and Synthetic.Nightmare was unable to reproduce. I had this issue with Holo Launcher, Holo HD Launcher, Apex Launcher, and the stock launcher. But I've also had this same issue with lots of other ROMS. It's more of an annoyance than anything really.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] I2IEAILiiTY:
I think it's a hardware issue. Me and my brother were both running this ROM and he never had this happened to him but it happened to my phone frequently. I also noticed his screen looked different than mine. Like his screen looked more like a samsung phone's amoled screen compared to mine.

I also noticed it's impossible to screenshot it from the device while it's happening. Every time I try to catch it, the screenshot appears right side up.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] dorqus:
That's defintely possible - I know that there are "good" and "bad" displays, not sure which one I have, but maybe it's one of the "bad" ones. *shrug* not that big a deal, just a minor inconvenience honestly. Oddly enough, I've switched back to a CM 7.2 based rom (Black Ice) and I don't have that issue with the inverted lockscreen. - go figure!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] I2IEAILiiTY:
I actually got a screenshot of my screen being upside down after hanging up the phone. It was on the 0.0's CM10 ROM though, but it happens on this one as well too.

But yea, I think it's definitely a hardware difference. But it's almost upgrade time anyways.

edit: Jk, I finally looked at the screenshots in my gallery and they were right-side up, yet they were upside down in the screen preview. Guess it makes sense that the screenshot would be upside down to me if the screen is upside down too. So really, the screenshot was right-side up in correlation with the screen orientation at that moment. Bummer.

Getting started

I flashed this over an old royal ginger ROM that I flashed a year ago... Got into a boot loop and had to go back to the stock.

What are the requirements to flash this? Root? Latest CWM? Any links or help would be appreciated. I tied to follow the directions, but didnt' seem to have a successful flash.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] NatsuDragneell:
Did you full wipe if so try flashing on 4ext recovery

Sent from my HTC Glacier with Beats Audio™
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Flashed over as in no wipe? Did you format system and whatnot? You should update your cwm if you haven't in a while as well for good measure. Other than that, the rest should be just like flashing any other rom :p
[myTouch 4G Android Development] averagedawg:
I used CWM and it was probably not the latest.

I did a factory reset and wipe from cwm, then wiped caches... Then tried to install ROM and nav bar zip. Didn't try to install the google now because i wasn't sure which one to get.

I am assuming i need to go through the rooting process again now that I put factory back on it right?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
If you're still S-OFF and all that, then no. As for Google now read the changelog and download whichever "M(num)" zip looks best to you.

And for those with the upside down screen, could you get me a dmesg? Turns out existz is prepping for an MR1 release soon so I want to see if I can help with this before that happens.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] wealthy23:
I think if your camcorder is not working well I think it's because of your sd cars I have a 16gn class 10 I had a 8 gb class 2 before big difference
[myTouch 4G Android Development] I2IEAILiiTY:
:confused:
[myTouch 4G Android Development] ..Cory..:
I'm saying lol...
[myTouch 4G Android Development] wealthy23:
Lol sorry for the typos but I did notice a better performance with the camcorder what you think?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] osutuba:
Overclocking nerfing your phone?

Anyone else having issues with overclocking? It seems if I push it past 1.3GHz my phone pretty much hard locks then I either have to do a battery pull or it reboots on it's own. I've seen this with both this and the Roasted Marshmallow JB ROM.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] I2IEAILiiTY:
What kernel are you using?

The phone doesn't need to be clocked that high anyways...not a big difference in real world performance on this phone.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] ..Cory..:
Agreed, overclocking really isn't needed at all... you should put everything back to default because you'll run into nothing but problems trying to fix what's already running fine.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jjbadd385:
If I choose to oc....its like 1100 tops..but usually ivkeep it at 10xx
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Some devices can oc more than others. There are more factors to it, but like the others said its not really needed. I wish I could remember the way I'd seen existz explain it in his thread. Also had some compiling errors last night that I had no clue about until I checked out an aapt change in frameworks/base and reverted it. So far no more segmentation faults so if all goes well from here on out, I'll try to have it posted sometime today.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] bige914:
this may be a dumb question, but i can just wipe install this rom over my ginger bread rom.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] mountaindewmi:
I have... just do a full wipe (data/cache/system/boot...) and then install. Has worked for me coming from AR HD and CM7. Using 4EXT recovery there is the one option to wipe all except sd card, and thats the one I do.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] I2IEAILiiTY:
Make sure you back up everything you want to keep (user apps, texts, etc. (not system apps though)) and download 4ext touch recovery.

Install that and boot into recovery, do a nandroid backup, then use the full wipe feature and it'll do the wiping for you. Then install the ROM, flash gapps too, and you'd be good to go.

When you restore apps from GB, you might need to reinstall them from the market or wherever you got them if you run into any issues.

[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Slightly. In comparison to an old recording of about the same length, it didn't freeze up at the end of the recording and instead having little freeze-ups it kind of lagged instead (this is me and using those 2 recordings as a reference, you might see it differently idk). Still got a ways to go though.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] rushfunn:
I got Push notification, the update was downloaded fine but it could not install on own.

I went to recovery and tried installing using zip but I got signature failure ...
[myTouch 4G Android Development] DJ Scooby Doo:
Downloading this now! Soon as my phone charges, I'll flash. Milestone release! That's epic bro! Congrats and thanks for all the support.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Lol I had so much trouble uploading. I hope its not a bad upload. Sometimes it installs on its own and sometimes it doesn't (at least from the 2 times I tried to update to br7 through ota)
[myTouch 4G Android Development] nlaplante:
Just flashed. Seems to be working fine.

About the OTA updater:

Changelog popup was taller than screen and could not scroll

No download progress indicator

OTA updater has stopped working when download finished

I verified the checksum using ES file explorer and it was ok. Rebooted and flashed (after a full wipe).

Thank you very much Synthetic for your work. It's very appreciated! Been running BR7 for a while now and I just got some lockscreen issues (no inverting, just lock ups). I'll post if I get any with MR1.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] ..Cory..:
That's quite a changelog! Great work Synthetic! You never disappoint :)
[myTouch 4G Android Development] xat.mobile:
Tried the OTA method twice, both times failing whole-file signature verification.

Additionally, the second try immediately failed by saying it was unable to mount the zip file, but i was able to apply it manually where it then failed with whole-file signature verification.

About the usability of this: it's nifty but a bit unintuitive that clicking download showed the changelog; as i scrolled through it i was expecting to see an additional step and completely missed the fact that it started downloading. There's also no indication of progress so it's difficult to gauge how much of a wait there is or how far the download has progressed or, indeed, whether it started at all.

it's weird because the md5 checksum is correct. not sure why cwm is having difficulty flashing it.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] rushfunn:
Glad, I'm not alone :fingers-crossed:
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Yeah I think its still a work in progress by existz (he compiles it locally to his liking using eclipse and then adds it pre built into the aospx source). I'd love to explain more, but I really don't know anything about the ota updater other than how to set it up (and what i tested going from br6 to br7) lol. Just thought it was a nifty feature that was added in so why not use it. Pretty sure that as the ota site/app progress, this one will too.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jjbadd385:
Hmm..can't get it to d/l...it attempts but never starts? Mirror anywhere?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] dorqus:
Thanks Synthetic.Nightmare! I'll upgrade tomorrow! Looking forward to trying 1.0.0-MR1 out!!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
So I noticed... now that I've got a little down time... which might be why the OTA Updater is acting screwy (with the signature checks and stuff). Funny... I thought AndroTransfer solved my problems but as I was uploading I realized I was still using googlecode, but decided to use androtransfer because I THOUGHT it was good direct file hosting. Ugh. Another hosting site that's ****ed me. Okay going back to googlecode lol. Time to get over trying to find something that's bit more like dev-host with folders and stuff and just get with what works. Will reupload when I can.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] I2IEAILiiTY:
So download now or no?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
You can... it just comes up as a .html file if you do it via phone browser (at least it did for me using androtransfer, and the mirror asks you to sign in or something through mobile)... Give me a few, about to start up a tether (home internet has been shoddy as hell this past week or so) and hit up good ol' googlecode.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] dorqus:
I had no issues downloading on my Mac, but on the phone it did show up as a .htm file.

I can upload to dev-host.org if that's OK w/you Synthetic.Nightmare...
[myTouch 4G Android Development] DJ Scooby Doo:
I uploaded this to Google Drive if any of y'all want it. I talked to Synthetic. https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B0hjIhf3YmPrTFdSQ0FncWVndms and on Dev-Host: http://d-h.st/90i
[myTouch 4G Android Development] THEindian:
I like how the graphic at the top of the OP shows a mytouch 4g slide and not the glacier lol
[myTouch 4G Android Development] I2IEAILiiTY:
Yea, I was going to download it on my mac. I don't trust downloading through devices, and plus that way it's already on my computer for storing purposes.

Aight, thanks dude.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Thanks. That sorts the mirror problem out until I can get this up on google code, then that should fix some of the OTA problems and mobile downloads. Thanks to all the other mirror offers as well, but one will suffice. If you've already uploaded, I'd say just keep in case some other hosting site decides to hate me lol. ETA on the googlecode upload: now

I like how my OP HAS a graphic.

;)
[myTouch 4G Android Development] DJ Scooby Doo:
No problem, anything to help a homie.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Thanks!

Okayyyyy we should be all set (on the OTA side and here on XDA :D).

I even changed the part where I'm supposed to insert the changelog to a message telling you that it's being downloaded and to check xda for the full changelog (is this preferable over that wall of changelog?). I'm about to go back to my BR7 backup one last time to test before OTA Updating myself back to MR1 and setting everything up for good. Ahh finally get to finish it all off lol.

just now flashing MR1 thanks but when i flash this n BR7 i get random off set x01e4 i think i will post a screenshot when phone boots up
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
The random offsets are supposed to happen when it flashes. It's a security feature of ics.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] I2IEAILiiTY:
What kernel is MR1 using?

---------- Post added at 08:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:58 PM ----------

I like how you're using a castle crashers avi. :highfive:
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
It's been updated to chocolate_mint. No standalone for this one YET, but it's not too different from the test kernel I have in my dev host. On the bright side, I just OTA'd myself without a hitch. Seems Androtansfer was indeed the problem.

Also, since the OTA Updater still isn't capable of wiping data (existz said it wasn't working too well so he removed it), try going into apps and clearing data for anything that doesn't work (I had to do it to get camera to work) and if that doesn't work, then unfortunately you have to wipe and reflash to see if the problems persist. Nonetheless, still a nice feature to have.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] I2IEAILiiTY:
says mint_chocolate you liar. lol
[myTouch 4G Android Development] rockstarar:
My download seems to have indeed been affected

Saw recovery while I'm studying, upon closer inspection I'm getting the whole signature file abortion (weird because md5 matches)

--sent from my glacier.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
lol I wasn't looking at it. I just knew there was some chocolate and there was a mint somewhere around there.

It should work now that I have adjusted the link. It worked for me at least on 4ext
[myTouch 4G Android Development] davidc90210:
I'm getting

E:failed to verify whole-file signature

[myTouch 4G Android Development] wealthy23:
Is there a way to add more shortcuts in the lock screen i think the other ics rom by you had it
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
I don't think the last few builds of Melchizedek had it since they were based on aospX, but earlier versions did but those were based off of Playground ICS (by TwistedUmbrella), which had more features but was less stable (which is why The Collective switched bases). You could try using a 3rd party app like hololocker or something, but I wouldn't know what to recommend you since I've never tried any.

Is everyone who is getting those signature errors on cwm?

[myTouch 4G Android Development] nlaplante:
Hey Synth maybe you could edit the OP to tell people if they need to wipe everything or not before upgrading from a previous version to mr1. Just my 2c
[myTouch 4G Android Development] I2IEAILiiTY:
Yes, they

NEED

to.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
My opinion on wiping is for you to do whatever pleases you. Its your rom and you should run it as you please whether you want to start over from scratch or not (I didn't this time with no problem but I usually do just make sure there are no problems). I'll let you know when changes are large enough for it to be important. All I ask is you try a clean install IF anything were to go wrong.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] DJ Scooby Doo:
Hmm for some reason on this ROM, I'm not getting signal where I used to get on BR7.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
I have signal problems all the time, but it's a part of my T-Mobile plan lol. Everything is working fine on my end in terms of data and they were when I clean installed earlier as well. Check your APN just to be sure.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] xat.mobile:
Weird stuff.

-Shortening the update message in the OTA updater helped. It shows that there actually is a progress bar of sorts.

-I still got the unable to mount issue, followed by the whole-file signature verification fail

-The MD5 checksum matched, so no issues there.

What I ended up trying was moving the downloaded zip to a different folder (in my case, from /sdcard/OTA-updater/download to /sdcard/Download) and tried flashing from there. It worked, but why? I'm still diagnosing this.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] DJ Scooby Doo:
Hmm. I mean on BR7 and on Andromadus Mimicry I had 3-4 bars, 5 minutes before I flashed I had 3 bars. Now I have none, and if I do, I don't have data. Probably something's gone awry in my phone.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] The_F_Word:
I hopped on this asap lol. As far as signal its still the same on my end.

So far so good, I don't see emojis ( I don't even know if your from had this to begin with) camera seems good
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Superchill11:
Did a backup, then wiped cache and dalvik. Flashed over br7 and everything is working so far. Well keep you posted. Thanks again synthetic!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] mybestway:
yes i knew , the cam is very great currently.

if the jb rom can use the cam or the kernel in this rom , i think it will be very very awesome
[myTouch 4G Android Development] wealthy23:
So far camcorder is very clear and testing in dark with flash on while recording liking it so far video is smoother
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jjbadd385:
This rom is very smooth. I d/l it by signing in with my live.com info. It wasn't a big deal. Everything is good so far! One very minor thing, does anyone have the torch.apk handy? I'm going to attempt to search for it, but if someone has it before I find it, I'd be much obliged!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Synthetic.Nightmare:
I use "nexus torch" from the market. It allows for a flashlight widget and has the strobe feature as well.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] :
hi, is there away to add theme changer to rom

In regards to the signal problems, it seems its solved itself lmao. I heard they're refarming the Jersey tower I connect to. When I woke up 2 bars showed up. Regards to the ROM, its perfect :) don't change a thing.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] anydayoftheweek:
I ran into issues flashing both manually and ota using cwm .. changed over to 4ext no problems so far:thumbup:
[myTouch 4G Android Development] dorqus:
Flashed this morning (fresh wipe) so far no issues, have not tried the camera or video camera yet - but I did reformat my SDCARD last night, so that may help with some of that as well.

So made one call earlier today, and earpiece volume seems to be a bit on the low side, even when I set it to the maximum on the phone. The test kernel you had in the BR7 ROM fixed that a bit. Is that fix incorporated into the mint_chocolate kernel as well? thanks.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] wealthy23:
I know the rom just came out but it takes two charge cycles for battery to set?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] pseudoswede:
Unfortunately, my phone kept freezing up so much (on BR7) that I had to manually upload it to my phone. After wiping/flashing (twice), my phone still kept freezing up within a few minutes of rebooting.

I have since gone with Dark Unicorn v2.5, and my phone has yet to freeze up. Obviously something didn't play right between this ROM and my phone. C'est la vie.

But huge thanks goes out to the OP for sticking with the MyTouch 4G and his continued development of an ICS ROM. I wish there were more developers like you who stick with trying to perfect a single version as opposed to abandoning partially-done projects to jump to the next flavor of Android.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jjbadd385:
I'm absolutely not saying you're lying, but I have tested nearly every rom available, & Synthetic 's roms are amazing and completely stable, & it has to be hardware related. In fact, most of these roms, from all these great devs are awesome. Maybe you can try the newest release & enjoy ICS at it's best!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] cnote74:
Synthetic's aospx is one of the most stable roms I've used on my phone. As always synthetic.nightmare delivers on one of the best roms for the glacier.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] JG:
Maybe when he wiped he didnt perform a FULL wipe ,Including system not only cache and data but a complete wipe of system itself ,that why i like 4EXT it allows you to do a complete wipe of everything except or including the sd-card,CWM users sometimes miss wiping of system .just a thought !Not calling anybody out for or saying they arent wiping correctly just passing info and my 2 and 1/2 cents out there:D:D
[myTouch 4G Android Development] wealthy23:
I started charging my battery at 47% not sure why it's still didn't move pass 50% it actually went down I am not sure what's up?

I even got a message while in my other sense rom saying the phone is not charging with enough power while running it was suggesting to turn off phone to charge

Any idea what's keeping my phone from charging while on and plugged in?
