2/ wanna go back to a non jelly bean based rom?( all builds ; all devices )

go to CWM > mount&storage and format :

/system

/data

/cache

then flash the kernel you want, (press flash on flashtool, plug the phone to pc, force reboot by pressing home+power, press and hold back button)

==> you can now restore a backup of the old rom you were previously using or install another non JB based rom

3/ hard/software keyboard isn't working properly??( ? ; mimmi )

4/ why my wifi can't load? ( all builds ; all devices )

you may have that kind of logcat:

D/WifiService( 1694): setWifiEnabled: true pid=2095, uid=1000

E/WifiStateMachine( 1694): Failed to load driver!

E/WifiStateMachine( 1694): DriverFailedState

open terminal emulator :

lsmod

if it doesn't answer anything, maybe /system is out of space and kernel fails to copy wifi modules at boot (note that undervolt module wont work either)

try the following :

open any file explorer that is root capable,

go to /system/media/audio/ringtones

delete some ringtones (at least to recover about 3 or 4 MB free, the more is safer) [1.5 MB seems to be enough though ]

reboot

try lsmod and see, if the kernel succeeded to copy modules at boot it's ok and and lsmod outputs what you are waiting for, if not reflash kernel and/or try to install a reduced miniCM10 zip (by deleting ringtones as for the previous way, but in a zip editor)

hoping it will solve your problem :)

5/ you have various problems with wifi ? ( all builds ; all devices )

refer to miniCM7 and miniCM9 miniFAQs !!!

6/ what are I/O schedulers ? ( all builds ; all devices )

a kind of answer here :)

7/ i updated from miniCM10-4.0.0 to 4.0.1 and after updating the gapps to 20120923 i've lost the camera ? (miniCM10-4.0.1 ; all devices)

go to mount&storage

format /system (NO data lost :) )

install miniCM4.0.1 again

install gapps 20120923

reboot&wait

all should be back to normal : fast and feature full ;)

8/ how can i set keyboard shortcuts on my hardware keyboard? (all builds ; mimmi)

just edit azerty.xml or qwerty.xml in system\usr\keyboard-config\layouts

9/ how can i fix my azerty/qwerty/qwertz... HardWare keyboard? (miniCM10-4.0.2+ ; mimmi)

first flash this : from here

and then the zip corresponding to your specific language : look here

/!\

choose "default input method" so that the KB works correctly, if you don't it will behaves strangely

/!\

do not modify keyboard_layouts and keyprints in any way if you want the above to work, edit: seems you can edit the xml finally

/!\

do not modify advanced>mimmiperts, make sure you have not touched it before processing the installs. it is recommended to start from a "fresh build" i.e. to wipe all user data, and so on.

defauld input and sym button should be back ;)

/!\

here is another way to fix it : follow allesand's instructions

10/ i wanna use a2sd, what is it and how to make it work? (all builds ; all devices)

refer to that short tuto & infos here by drfr

11/ my LED is not blinking properly :( is there any way to change that? (all builds ; all devices)

You must delete /system/lib/hw/lights.msm7x27.so with rootexplorer or any other file manager that allows you to explore and modify root files

handcent led settings does not work properly with lights.robyn.so :)

of course, you need to reboot your phone after that.

REDELETE AFTER EACH UPDATE if you have the same problem SINCE THE FILE IS REWRITTEN;)

12/ why flastool doesn't flash the kernel i choose? (any version)

when there are lots of kernel builds in flashtool firmware folder, flashed kernel might not be the right one,

to void this, create a folder in it, cut/paste all your previous kernel there

and only keep the one you want to flash in the firmware folder

then, start flastool and process flashing operations

13/ i'have some problem for sending mms (all builds until miniCM10-4.0.2+ ; all devices)

--> with CM7/9/10 you just CANT send mms without data enabled

if you can't even with data enabled:

--> seems now, mms can be sent without enabling data or anything, just need to have correct APN set up :)

14/ CM file manager doesn't work well for no (not at all in fact) (all builds? ; all devices?)

see details here.

15/

concerning brightness on MiniCM10-4.0.2 nightly 20130119 and higher,

(MiniCM10-4.0.2-nightlies ; shakira, robyn, mimmi?

to get compatibility with .32 kernel, nAa needed to change some things related to brightness monitoring

and that's why some issues appeared with .29 kernel, and then were fixed, but with the drawback of light being at max for a short time before dimming when turning the screen on.

using .32 kernel solves this issue ;)

with old .29 kernel, use MiniCM10-4.0.2-stable or nightlies until 20130114

for newer nightlies (especially 20130207+) prefer .32 kernel :)

16/ concerning Undervolting and newer .32 kernels : (MiniCM10-4.0.2+ and nAa .32-03+ ; all devices)

17/ why can't i connect my device to USB on PC ? (MiniCM10-4.1.0+ & nAa05+ ; all devices)

18/ where is my dualtouch?? (MiniCM10-4.1.0+ &nAa05+ ; all devices)

this is a copy of kernel OP, that you should have read before ;)

19/ why do i get a kernel version error (installation abort, status 7) while installing MiniCM10? (MiniCM10-4.1.0 up to 20130518-NIGHTLY &nAa06 ; all devices)
