[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
2 Builds are UP....Stable 3.6.0 and Nightly 9.26

Jokersax.com may be shutting down tomorrow, so I am relocating my builds to Goo.im

Link to the Base ROM and Options Chooser are in the OP

It's still a port at this point, but it is built into MY Source-Built CM10 for Photon....so yes, it has the latest fixes

FIrst impressions: Everything works (Phone, data, sms, mms, camera, wifi, bluetooth,)....and Transitional Stutters are a thing of the past :D

CHEERS!​
[Motorola Photon 4G] k2wl:
why jokersax is shutting down??? is joker alright or what....??? or is it just a site maintainence..???
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Just been a tough year for joker. He'll bring it back up once he can...
[Motorola Photon 4G] Kubombelar:
TheBill thanks alot,loving your great work. This being my first time flashing CNA,could you kindly advise the diffrence between the stock based and the nightly based?

Also for the options chooser do I use version 2 or do you intend to upload another one? Really cant wait to flash this,hope I wont lose the lights on my capacitive keys,thats

what happened when I flashed MIUI the latest version. Either way,glad this is a stable build as stated by you.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
The nightly I have not tried...just had what looked to be some framework changes on contacts...etc. 3.6 is considered stable. Nightlies are considered testing.

Use vers 2. Its much better set up than the vers 1 series
[Motorola Photon 4G] FernBch:
Question

I don't see a link for gapps, is it included somewhere?
[Motorola Photon 4G] secret.animal:
It is in the options download.
[Motorola Photon 4G] FernBch:
Thanks
[Motorola Photon 4G] revlayle:
Seems the ROM get stuck in boot even after doing a system wipe (using the options-based installer posted last night)) - unless first-time install just takes a while to start up?
[Motorola Photon 4G] secret.animal:
Did that to me also. Figured I got a broke download as it stuck at the end when clearing the build prop. Trying AOKP, now.
[Motorola Photon 4G] revlayle:
I ended up doing a full wipe and installing 3.60 then joker's jelly apps - it works now, just have to reconfigure everything
[Motorola Photon 4G] tommyb_:
that mean we can play games smoothly now? i been back on hybrid jus to be able to play around
[Motorola Photon 4G] decamel:
Missing su

Is it just me, or is /system/xbin/su missing entirely in 3.6.0?
[Motorola Photon 4G] knG333:
http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=32082723&postcount=1090

Try that fix, which was posted in the CM10 thread.
[Motorola Photon 4G] decamel:
That sadly did not do it. The su binary for whatever reason was set to 644 permissions. In case anyone else runs into this all I did was boot into recovery, mounted /system and chmod 755 /system/xbin/su and chmod +s /system/xbin/su to get it working again.
[Motorola Photon 4G] psgarcha92:
Ok Guys so i read about the stuttering all gone and being oh so excited, downloaded the CNA 3.6.0 ROM.

I was previously on 2.3.4 deBlurred. Rooted and unlocked, went forward and flashed Aroma-Prep. After that i rebooted into recovery and flashed the Aroma CNA 3.6.0. GSM Prop, EMMC, and No USSC, went on and flashed it this way 3-4 times already, but the phone sits on the Motorola Logo all the while after flashing. Even went to an older JB version of CNA first, and then tried flashing this, still the same.

What am i doing wrong? Help please guys

Regards
[Motorola Photon 4G] Jaemostoriginal:
I haven't tried this new cna but how long did you wait for it to boot?
[Motorola Photon 4G] secret.animal:
All right, first things first. You came from cm7, so you may not be on a good recovery to flash into cm9 or cm10. You can use twrp or you can use jokers v3 recovery. Being jokers site is having some minor problems.

Someone out there may still have a copy that you can use. Don't forget to do a full wipe in aroma or you will lose touch with no base to work off of.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Jleeblanch:
I assume you didn't wipe anything recovery BEFORE flashing the rom zip? Or did you?

And what Recovery are you currently using?
[Motorola Photon 4G] FernBch:
If anyone needs a proper recovery I have romracer's 5.0.2.7 photon3. I don't, however, know how to make it available to anyone (like attach it to a post). I have been using it for almost a year and I have had zero issues flashing any of these awesome builds.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Jleeblanch:
Romracers recovery is still available via the thread, but thanks. Also, I wouldn't recommend that recovery to other users on ICS/JB builds as majority of people DO tend to have issues with it. Granted, its a stable and decent recovery but is more recommended for users on CM7 or stock based builds.

Also, jokers v3 recovery (v5.5.0.4) IS still currently available on his site...
[Motorola Photon 4G] psgarcha92:
@jleeblanch

Nope, i did not Wipe anything before running the aroma installer.

Also i am using Joker's Recovery v3 only.

I also did try first upgrading to JB Based CNA first and then doing the CNA 3.6.0 install.

I did leave the phone on the moto logo for a good 5-7 minutes.

is there anything wrong that i am doing??

Regards
[Motorola Photon 4G] Carlosmadiam:
I'm having kind of the same problems, though if I try the stable release it won't install properly, I get a 7 on the status, check the log and is something with the GPS permissions. Tried the nightly, it installs but stays on the bootanimation screen, any help, please...

Sent from My Electrify Telcel Mexico
[Motorola Photon 4G] Jleeblanch:
When you flashed the older version first, were you able to get that to boot?

If not, what I would recommend trying is this...

flash Th3Bill's CM10 beta (9-26) first as it doesn't use Aroma. Make sure to wipe /system, /data, and /cache if coming from a stock based ROM. I know for a fact that will boot. Don't worry about flashing the GSM fix or Gapps right now.

Then, after it successfully boots, reboot into recovery but DO NOT WIPE!

Now flash the CNA ROM of your choice and choose whatever options you want. Then flash the Options Chooser zip and choose whatever you want there (or alternatively, flash Gapps itself).

If CNA still won't boot than lemme know and we'll go from there. But I know other peeps have had success so I would imagine you'll be good to go :)
[Motorola Photon 4G] psgarcha92:
@jleeblanche

Where am i going to find Th3Bill's CM10 Beta?? not on jokersax for sure...

EDIT: NVM, found it in joker's CM10 thread.

regards
[Motorola Photon 4G] tony442:
I also cannot get the new 3.6 to boot... Veteran flasher here only thing I haven't tried is cm10 first... I keep getting a permission error in aroma, any ideas?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Jleeblanch:
You can find Th3Bill's CM10 Beta here

Are you getting the permission error during/after Options Chooser install? Or is it happening during/after flashing the ROM zip?

If its happening when flashing the Options Chooser zip, try flashing Gapps instead to see if that helps.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Guys...I need something other than just "GPs or something" for a report. I am going to test flashing zip again....

Just flashed 3.6 here....worked perfectly fine...no errors on flashing...booted right up...

FYI....you need to do a FULL WIPE on this one....TOO many things changed between build versions
[Motorola Photon 4G] psgarcha92:
@jleeblanch

I did as u said, went and downloaded and installed Th3Bill's CM10 first. Booted just fine. (full wipe when coming from stock)

Then went ahead and tried flashing CNA 3.6.0

The error that i get at the end is as follows:

Finishing Customization

Config Permission

set_perm: some changes failed

and it still wont boot up. Tell me if you need the LOG, if it is going to tell something else than the error i just reported.

EDIT: wait a minute, i flashed it again, a total of 3 times, and it booted up. Cheers :)

but the above error still exists.

Regards
[Motorola Photon 4G] Jleeblanch:
Are you getting that error at the end of the rom zip? Or Options Chooser zip?

Also, are you choosing to wipe during the rom zip install?
[Motorola Photon 4G] tony442:
Happens when just flashing the 3.6 aroma installer basic options with 1.3 kernel and emmc primary no ussc

---------- Post added at 10:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:09 PM ----------

This is my same error
[Motorola Photon 4G] psgarcha92:
@jleeblanch,

i get the error at the end of the installation and i am not using the Options Chooser.

And yes i am choosing to Wipe the full system in the Aroma installer itself.

Regards
[Motorola Photon 4G] Jleeblanch:
Hmm, well honestly I'm not sure what else to recommend at the moment. Th3Bill said he flashed 3.6 just fine without any errors.

So, it just finished downloading for me. I'm currently on CM10 beta (by Th3Bill) so I'm gonna Nandroid and then flash 3.6 and see what happens.

Also, if you can get me the Aroma log I can take a look at it and possibly see what's going on...
[Motorola Photon 4G] mrmellies:
I tried to flash 5 times with full wipe from 4 different backups(all th3bills builds same results as above. Just got home. Will charge and flash again... can I do adb log cat while flashing in aroma? Also jleeblanch it happens at the end of the actual ROM install. No options chooser. :anxious to help: oh and btw.... my link for jokers recovery is still posted on my box account. Feel free to use it but I want NO thanks. Give them all to the man jokersax11 himself.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Jleeblanch:
Ya that's odd that so many are having issues. Or at least a handful. I just finished a backup and am about to flash now. I'll let ya'll know what's good and I'll grab a logcat as I'm sitting at the computer anyway (if it doesn't boot that is).

Also, it looks like Joker's site is slowly going down. At least the files anyway. I have most of them but later today/tomo I'm going to make a thread dedicated to ALL the available Recovery's and new links. Similar to a post I made a few weeks ago with info on each one.

Back to the subject at hand... flashing now...
[Motorola Photon 4G] Kubombelar:
flashed it twicee and it worked...Superuser isnt working it says binary files are missing
[Motorola Photon 4G] mrmellies:
how long did you wait at the boot animation?

i know there are a LOT of lib changes but after 5 minutes.. and yes i really timed it i said F it and went back to noiddroid 2.13. i am however charging and trying again. this time with a proper logcat if possible... i did save the aroma log if thats helpful. i rememer it saying ":status 7" at the very end when it says installation status, when normally it says "0"

so its okay to flash while connected to usb? thats the only way to get a logcat on JB right?
[Motorola Photon 4G] psgarcha92:
How exactly does one do that??

Regards
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
What recovery are you all using?
[Motorola Photon 4G] psgarcha92:
Me is using Joker's V3.

And flashing it twice worked for me but no SU binaries are there on my system.

Regards
[Motorola Photon 4G] shadowedge1335:
Flashed both roms, all with some problem:

CNA_Nightly_9.26:

stuck at boot animation, loop infinitly!

full wipe,the same!

CNA 3.6:

must do a full wipe, or it will stuck on boot screen!

after a full wipe, can boot into system,but root/supersu is error!

So,finally i use joker's "root fix" to solve the root problem,Now using CNA 3.6 with Joker's SuperUser
[Motorola Photon 4G] Jleeblanch:
OK, glad you got it working because I got it running after the first flash and am all set back up.

Personally, I fixed the su issue before I flashed tho. Not sure what exactly is going on with the root issue tho. I checked out the su permissions, they're fine. I checked for the su binary and Superuser app, they're both there (granted SuperSU is named "Superuser" again). What I did tho, just to make sure was copied over the su binary and SuperSU app from the zip I have and changed Superuser.apk to SuperSU.apk and rezipped the ROM.

Also, I didn't have any permission errors after the Aroma install finished.
[Motorola Photon 4G] tony442:
Same here haven't had any luck since I downloaded... I've never had this issue before but I'm working now so I'm back to cm7
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
I reuploaded the rom last night....anyone having problems try that one...it's labeled "b"
[Motorola Photon 4G] secret.animal:
I had a problem but haven't tried it again yet. Went to one of your others with no problem.

Well give it another go, and yes I wiped completely before.:)

Revised...----always jokers v3. But I downloaded that night you released it on my phone. May have had a slight bad download. So was going to try later.

Didn't want to say anything until I could prove or verify.
[Motorola Photon 4G] mrmellies:
Joker v3
[Motorola Photon 4G] mediawiz:
I had the same issues.

- 3.6 and 3.6b ... no root

- 9.26 nightly ... boot animation just keeps playing

Anyone know where I can get the "Joker root fix" mentioned above? I tried looking in the CM10 for Photon page on Joker's web site, but the link to it there is broken (I get an error "can't find file").

---------- Post added at 03:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:29 PM ----------

OK... I tried installing 9.26 again, and again wound up in the continuous boot animation. I then installed 3.6b (just wiped the cache and delvik), and this time it booted OK, with root access. (yay!)

It would still be nice to have the "Joker root fix" mentioned above (just in case I run into problems in the future). Please let me know if you know of someplace I can download it from.
[Motorola Photon 4G] revlayle:
Do the CNA roms have problems with the headphone jack?

(if not, it could be my hardware is problematic then)
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Right now...if someone can make that up with the su xbin and SuperSU.apk, I'd really appreciate it. I'm taking on 2 more ROMs on top of what I'm already doing (I just started building CM10). On top of that, I'm working on building from source.

I will admit....I haven't tested 9.26 nightly. I have been running 3.6.0 without any issue for almost 2 days without any issue (once I fixed SU). I think I am going to go away from the nightlies for now...at least until I get everything settled down.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
What issue are you meaning? I'm actually using 3.6.0 with my speakers at work as a music player :D
[Motorola Photon 4G] Jleeblanch:
Updating the root fix to include SuperSU now...

I'll post a test zip for people to try out soon :)
[Motorola Photon 4G] Kubombelar:
Jleeblanch thanks alot....lucky me. looked hard en didnt find it
[Motorola Photon 4G] HackGerm:
AROMA-PREP file

Jokersax appears to be down right now.

Q: Instead of the file AROMA-PREP that Th3Bill mentioned in the install instructions, can we just CMW Report Error, Show Log, Reboot Recovery as with other Aroma ROMs? I downloaded both ROM and Option Chooser, and only miss the Aroma-Prep file.

Thanks!! :p
[Motorola Photon 4G] Jleeblanch:
You can actually find the Aroma-Prep file here :)
[Motorola Photon 4G] FernBch:
Ok, it's decision time. Currently running CNA 3.5.0 and have been having issues.

Browser (DolphinHD) will exit without warning.

Phone will freeze from time to time.

Random reboots, can't seem to figure out the common denominator.

Notification and ring tone settings won't stick after reboot.

Wifi is screwy, restart fixes it.

Plus other random wierdness.

It's driving me crazy and I can't take it anymore. How stable is 3.6.0 and is there anything special to look out for/do if I decide to flash? It's either that or go back to a nandroid of my last rom.

Add to that random fc's in process.media.com

It has me a little frustrated. Right after flashing this almost everything worked perfectly but as time passed it got more and more screwy.
[Motorola Photon 4G] HackGerm:
Thanks, found it!!
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Interesting....reports of errors but no logs...

3.6 is based off newest Android version JR003R, which is what CNA is based on. Previously, I was building it off JR003L because that was all I had. I've learned how to build source, so that allowed me to update. Should be improved
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Both builds were re-done based on the 9.29 CM10 I built today :D

CHeers!
[Motorola Photon 4G] FernBch:
Thanks for the info. Tried to get logs with ADB but I'm not good with it so I failed :(

Is there an app similar to alogcat that works with JB or is ADB the only way?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Be aware...these are fully untested
[Motorola Photon 4G] FernBch:
Just flashed 3.6.0 plus the options chooser and the prep zip. Nice work Sir. Did it all with a cache/davlik wipe only. On first boot I was getting fc's in the gallery. I cleared the cache for gallery, rebooted and all is good. Started going through the settings and the display stutter is gone for most things, but not all. The first time time I entered the menu for notifications and ringtones each item was only listed once. Now it's back to multiple listing for each item but the setting currently stick after reboot.

Is ghere a logcat that works for JB? If not, can someone point me to a thread that will tell me how to use ADB to pull logs?

Thanks

Scratch the logcat request. Logcat extreme works great.

[Motorola Photon 4G] FernBch:
Th3Bill, I must ask a question of you. (Please don't flame me mercilessly)

When I made the post about 3.5.0 I had a brain-fart. I never tried looking for a logcat app that would work with the newer builds. I was using alogcat with the ICS builds and thought I read about using ADB with the JB builds because alogcat didn't work with JB. Well, I admit it, I'm ADB challenged

:confused:

I currently have logcat extreme installed but I'm not use to it yet. I can read the logs with if (I see messages about system errors and openGL being out of memory) but right now it's 14k lines long. Is there a logcat app that is recommended? And what is the best way to attach a logcat to a post. Images are easy, do other files work in a similar manner or do I need to upload it somewhere and link to it?

Thanks for being patient, I don't possess your awesome skills :bowdown:
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
best way to attach is pastebin....or MIUI.us's service :D

I don't use any logging apps....I use computer...sorry...

Only thing to complain about I think started at 3.50 - my phone ringer will mysteriously get turned almost all the way down. Not sure yet what I'm doing that's causing it by seems to be after listening to Pandora or a phone call on speakerphone. And yes I am sure I am not turning it down accidentally myself.
