Yep, if you click the link in my signature, it takes you to the Gapps page on Goo.im, and you'll see that the latest build for 4.1.x devices is from October 11th. Hope this makes it clear for everyone here.

I agree with all those steps being superfluous. Most ROM threads state what steps you need to take to flash the ROM properly, but in all simplicity, you really only need to wipe anything if going from one series or type to another, e.g., from Sense to TouchWiz, etc. With those you MAY have to format internal and maybe even external storages because they use different formatting. AOSP ROMs are another story, but you only need to wipe anything if going from one "letter" version to another, e.g., Gingerbread to ICS or ICS to JB, etc, and not have to format at all. The differences between these system frameworks and UIs can cause a lot of FCs if orphan data from another remains. In this case, ezdi's explanation just about does it.

I think for your case, your phone has problems going to deep sleep(solid blue line). This happens to me when I choose the INTERACTIVE governor instead of the default ONDEMAND -> one of the cores(i think its usually the second core) gets stuck at 192mhz which uses all the battery life

---------------------------------------------------------------

my amaze 4G has never had super good battery life on any rom (stock /sense4-based roms, maybe 10 hours mixed used of 9 hr standby, 1 hour screen on)... same for this rom (i have Juice Defender Balanced enabled. auto-sync, no location, no google now)

tldr; turn down screen brightness, use Juice Defender to toggle off radio

Sport: I had something similar with my last kernel build... Had to flash from a PC once I got into HBOOT.

BTW, for those who haven't seen it yet...

4ext cannot recover a bad kernel flash - Smartflash requires a functional kernel to work....

You have to reboot into the bootloader and flash manually, if you flash a bad kernel/boot.img

[HTC Amaze 4G] chevycowboyusa:
Same battery that came with the phone. I've actually have been getting better battery life after disabling maps.

And I'm going to try the juice defender trick above too. Where I work there's only one spot where i get 4g and most of the time my phone is searching for signal.

I'm actually happy i got about 15 hours of good use.
[HTC Amaze 4G] iKilla:
lol i hope i have a good battery experience with it, if not i might return and upgrade my phone..

Quick question how long does it take to charge your phone..my phone takes forever..
[HTC Amaze 4G] chevycowboyusa:
My phone takes about two hours. Depending on if i use my ac or DC adapter. Two hours on ac. Three hours on the dc .
[HTC Amaze 4G] iKilla:
my phone has been take 6 hours to charge, since my cousin chewed on it.. t-mobile told me it was the battery acting up but either i order and new USB and Battery.. Thanks for answer my Question..
[HTC Amaze 4G] dcacklam:
Not really...

The current (Movial IMS) wifi calling that TMO is releasing for phones like the Galaxy III isn't portable without some really serious hacking.

the reason is that it REQUIRES the phone.apk and the mms.apk from the original platform (in this case, whatever version of Touchwiz is on the SGS3) as well as the IMS apks (gba, ims, and wificall.apk) and libaries.

IMS isn't like GAN/UMA - it doesn't integrate with the RIL.

Instead, it offers a SIP service that the proprietary dialer and MMS apps connect to.

The actual core-services for WiFi calling via Movial IMS already run on CM10 for the Amaze.

I've done that.

However that doesn't let you call, because (A) the package responsible for enabling them does NOT run on CM10 due to it's dependencies on Sense, and (B) the Phone and MMS APK from Sense do not run on CM10 either, because of Sense.

The same issue applies to Touchwiz.

The only 'OEM-framework-free' version of WiFi calling we have, is the old Kineto GAN/UMA implementation from CM7 & 9, and there is an audio library dependency preventing it from working right on CM10.
[HTC Amaze 4G] PeterC18st:
Thanx for the quick response and detailed info. So hows CM9 coming along? Jk. T-Mobile is dropping the ball on wifi calling.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Old-school:
I think XDA should give you the rank of Recognized Professor, never seen anyone being able to explain things so well. By the way, I was wondering if you would try getting wifi calling to work on Sense 4.0. I have gotten the maximum battery life on that rom, and the One S that was sold here had wifi calling while ours was ported from the Asian version with the s3 processor. I have tried flashing quite a few zips for the UMA version from the Sensation forums, and never been abe to get Wifi Calling to work. Since the One S uses IMS, shouldn't it be a simple matter of replacing Settings.apk to get wifi calling settings even (of course assuming Wifi Calling works in the first place). I am a noob in these matters, especially since I dont even know which libraries we are even dealing with. If its simple things that can be done on a Windows machine, I can try a few things if you point me in the right directions.
[HTC Amaze 4G] :
No I've said this a couple times WiFi calling on sense based ICS ROMs is terribly broken
[HTC Amaze 4G] crazypotato:
if you really depend on wifi calling, maybe you really should just change carrier instead. It really defeats of purpose of getting a cellular phone as there is no cellular your phone can connect to hence it needs to connect to wifi.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Goten310:
Yeah but some may be in then same situation as me...I have great service outside my building but once inside the signal craps out. That is due to the high frequency bands T-Mobile uses and high frequency bands have terrible building penetration. That is where having WiFi calling abilities is a godsend.
[HTC Amaze 4G] misfit61871:
I used to really rely heavily on WFC before I had my amaze, but since owning it and rooting etc it's been useless so I've had to live without it. But lately my signal had been good so it's no biggie, don't know if it's cm 10 or what but I just haven't needed it anymore, so no big loss here.

[HTC Amaze 4G] dcacklam:
Some folks live in areas where there is NO cell service at home...

That's why WIFI calling is such an interest of mine... It's the only way I can have a working phone at home.

---------- Post added at 07:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:16 AM ----------

There are about 4 to 5 APKs, and a bunch of libs.

I've never ran Sense 4 myself... It was ICS-update and away-we-go with faux-AOSP...

You need the following from a Sense 3.6 phone for IMS-type WiFi Calling to work:

/system/framework/gba-service.jar

/system/framework/com.orange.authentication.simcard.jar

/system/framework/org.simalliance.openmobileapi.jar

/system/app/Phone.apk

/system/app/Mms.apk

/system/app/ims-service.apk

/system/app/ip-provider.apk

/system/app/WifiCall.apk

You will then need to follow my instructions in the SpeedRom thread, to use QCustomShortcut and make a shortcut to the WiFi Calling Settings class in WifiCall.apk

Sense 3.6 settings is not required, the actual WiFi calling settings are in wificall.apk
[HTC Amaze 4G] ezdi:
That zip is just a bunch of junk from the GNII. Some people with the MT4G are trying to get wifi calling on http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1922861 They are nowhere near as far as you.

Even these guys http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1922861 are behind you and they've got a more popular phone than us AND a $350 bounty (if you get anywhere, you might want to snag that).

I may get some time in a week to look into the audio library thing on UMA. I think the need to update every app to IMS-aware versions is over my head. You say the error is from "AudioRecorder" class? I see "AudioRecord" and MediaRecorder classes in the Android API, but not that one. Do you have the path of what it's trying to instance (e.g. com.foo.bar.AudioRecorder) or is that not available when you decompile?

I think that's true if you've got something like CM stable. However, when stuff is still in flux, it's still a good idea to wipe system (one would hope boot gets taken care of in the kernel flash script). For example, I was having Bluetooth toggling crash my phone after I installed one of these builds (I think the first with WiFi) on top of another (I think the cell data-only version). It went away after I wiped system, boot, and cache and flashed again.
[HTC Amaze 4G] SpiritFyre:
or here is something interesting. i dont know if theres a way to call forward from ur phone to google voice... but heres an idea.. try call forwarding to google voice using groove ip. it works over wifi.. granted temp fix for waiting on wifi callingto work.

Anyone her having the problem not being able to restore any of your old apps or installing latest flash player app as 3rd party app???
[HTC Amaze 4G] Bling_Diggity:
Supposedly, but not with the apps included with this KDH zip. I don't know how they work, or why, but they do, so I'm not asking questions. Sometimes you just gotta roll with it.
[HTC Amaze 4G] dcacklam:
If you backed up your old apps to external SD under Sense, Titanium won't know where to find them.

But restoring backups from Sense to CM can cause other problems, just due to the differences between the two, anyway.

Never tried to do flash-player yet, you may have to enable 'unknown sources' for that to work... Since it's not a market app anymore.... It will not let you install it from the market, because it has been discontinued, BTW....
[HTC Amaze 4G] GuyInDogSuit:
I tried it, and most, if not all, of the apps included either were 4.1.2 anyway, or just didn't install, because that's the version number they had when I checked.

If Titanium Backup is having trouble finding your backups, you can go into the settings and have it scan the folders for them. It should find them then with no problem. I'd recommend moving them to the default place, though.
[HTC Amaze 4G] chevycowboyusa:
I'll back you up on this one. I moved my tb backup to internal sdcard. Works great.

In just keeping all my not so needed stuff on external.
[HTC Amaze 4G] HumpDdumpD:
I have ran TB off a folder on my external sd now for sense 3.6, 4.0, & CM10 haven't had a problem yet. I go to settings- backup folder location & manually select my folder though... I didn't even know it had an option to scan actually.

[HTC Amaze 4G] rasstar:
I would wait. I went back to stock because of issues. For instance call volume is really low and Bluetooth telephone audio does not work in car
[HTC Amaze 4G] blast0id:
honestly, for me, the bulletproof sense4.1 rom is more stable, smoother, and is much closer to a complete rom...

with sense stripped (left core apps only) I am getting solid 9+hrs w/2+hrs of screen on time +~1hrs of GPS, plus multiple calls, texts...etc... what I personally would consider med/heavy usage... it's by far the best battery life I've had with this phone...

I really do like CM10, but I can't use it as daily between the audio issues, and the echo people are hearing when they call me (I hear nothing)... the bluetooth phone is much of an issue for me, cause I rarely use bluetooth phone, but I know that's a pretty big one for a lot of people... the SD mount issue is only an annoyance also...
[HTC Amaze 4G] misfit61871:
I'm using it as a dd, I make calls, text etc ya there are some bugs but it's smooth enough for me, I'll take the little bugs any day rather than go back to sense. You really just need to run it for a day or two of your normal use and then decide.

I don't use BT so that's not a problem for me, when I play my music I can hear it through both speakers now, I haven't heard anyone I know tell me about an echo, have not had a BSOD ONCE, but I did on sense ROM's. Mms works both ways, the games I play on my phone work just fine, so I don't know just depends on your personal use.

Sent from the morgue.
[HTC Amaze 4G] GuyInDogSuit:
The ROM is by all means "stable" enough for the average user, but as mentioned, you should really test drive it for a day or two and see for yourself. I personally use it as my daily driver and other than a few minor bugs, it does everything with speed and great response.
[HTC Amaze 4G] blast0id:
that's really strange, had BOTH of those issues multiple times daily... and to try and diagnose I did the RUU>Recovery>Root>CM10 flash method and was still having them just as bad afterwards...

[HTC Amaze 4G] dcacklam:
Here's the 'scoop' on echo as a call-quality issue:

Echo is an analog phenomenon - eg, it can be induced in 3 places: at the A/D conversion on your phone, at any subsequent A/D conversion if the call is transmitted over POTS copper lines (a/o being kept digital and transmitted over TCP/IP), and at the term-side of the call. It is generally NOT caused by distortion of data-transmission (That causes garble, choppiness and drop-outs)...

In the case of the Amaze, because it has more mics on it than a porcupine has spines... And because audio routing is completely hosed & there is no evidence that Sport's last attempt to fix this has been merged into the CM tree (since we are still not seeing all the .csv files in the last nightly)....

It is very likely that echo issues are a combination of audio-routing having the wrong mic(s) on at the wrong times, and call volume settings being high enough to induce an echo effect...

This would also be why some experience echo and some do not - it would be dependent on your own personal volume settings in-call...

The fix for that, if that is the cause, is to fix the audio routing.

(That's just my $0.02... I do happen to do network engineering for a VoIP provider, so I do know a little bit about telcom audo-quality issues)....
[HTC Amaze 4G] sgtfoo:
Isn't the concept of having reverse positioned microphones based on the idea of inverting the audio phase of what those mics hear and adding it to the main mic because that would effectively counter the background noise?
[HTC Amaze 4G] chevycowboyusa:

Is the incorrect audio routing in the audio_policy.conf file? or is it in the kernel??

[HTC Amaze 4G] Kobraki17:
I do understand and agree with your idea 100%. I never even thought about possibly the noise reduction microphones are routing the audio improperly through the call. Who do you work for, if you don't mind me asking? I work in association with a VoIP provider called Broadsmart.

[HTC Amaze 4G] dcacklam:
One of many. Other examples include enabling the 'set the phone face-down for speakerphone' function, and for camcorder audio.

Our problem, is that given how completely scrambled the audio is, it is very possible that the wrong mic(s) are being used to pick up audio, just like the wrong speakers are being used to play audio...

---------- Post added at 06:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:34 PM ----------

I suspect that it is a mix of BOTH the kernel and the /system/etc/ audio configuration files (not just audio_policy, but about 10 separate files)

I decided, after fighting with the MSM source tree for a while, to take a look at HTC's kernel source...

There is a MAJOR difference, in critical areas where we have bugs...
