Just tested the 3G today, still very spotty and doesn't get the same signal as the 4G. Before anyone asks I was thinking of just using 3G to conserve battery even though I get 4G.

Another thing is I have to switch Airplane mode on and off a few times for 3G to 4G changes to take effect. Actually I'm still having trouble getting it to switch back to 4G, I may need a reboot.

Here's a log as well, if anyone wants a peek. NOTE: I had to switch between Airplane mode a few times, to get the signal to work, you may notice that in the logs: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B4Eao7Q0SnuLMXdvREx0aHZBN00/edit

Just click it and I'll approve you if you wish to view it

After it's installed, other apps should normally have access to that codec and they should be able to play the same videos. I don't know if an app can restrict a codec to itself (??). Obviously if that codec is req'd, other apps would be helpless BEFORE the codec is installed....
[Thunderbolt Android Development] bsdesign0000:
i noticing on this rom and the other one that data/wifi does drop out or something from time to time.. i will get gray bars instead of blue ones on 3G/4G and Wifi... usually a reboot or turning off wifi and network data off and re-endabling them helps get them back on. but i tried 3 different radios and they all seem to be experiencing the same issues. No a huge deal tho
[Thunderbolt Android Development] onestoploser:
Not completely true. SOME apps are front-ends to preinstalled codecs. Some players have the codecs built into the app (vlc, QQPlayer, etc.).

I read through this and did not see anyone else with this issue. Recently the GMail on my phone will show an email when I click to read it for like 2 seconds and then it will disappear so you cannot read emails. I switched to the EMail App which worked fine for a bit and then it started doing it. I uninstalled / re-installed GMail and it was working fine for a bit but now it is back to it's old tricks again.

Before I re-ROM it wanted to see if there was a known issue about it and or a simple fix. Would love to be able to read my emails!

LCS MR2 is installed. Pretty much vanilla with that ROM, I havn't made or installed very many apps etc.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] :
You must've missed it then, to fix the Gmail issue, you go in, wipe the Gmail app data and cache and then reinstall it, then set the email sync in the settings to only 7 days as opposed to the original 30.

So, this was talked about in this thread or the JMod version.

Basically, someone had suggested to uninstall, wipe cache, davlik and then reinstall... then change sync to 7 days at a time. I noticed that did help out a bit. From time to time it does disappear again... so I'll force close the Gmail app by holding the back button. That has to be enabled from the Developer setting. When I open the app again, it seems to work.

I've also noticed this with Google Reader from time to time. You can click on the article and after a second, the text disappears. Holding back seems to fix that issue also for the time being.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] :
that's all I have for now, unfortunately the boss told me not to post screens, just a few bits ago. gotta have em taken down.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Skyllos:
Another Gmail fix is clear data and move Gmail to system apps. Reboot. Urinalcake posted it on rootz.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] quickdraw86:
urinalcake's fix works. no issues reading mail since.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] SikYou:
Was just listening using Google music and headphones, everything worked normal. By normal I mean crappy because google music absolutely sucks but that has nothing to do with the rom, Google music has sucked from the beginning and continues to just suck more. Did I mention that the app sucks? ;)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] nickhaven:
fix?

Did you ever find a fix for this one? I am having that issue on my phone. The notification icons in the top bar are the color black, i can change the color of my bar and see them. However i prefer to have a black bar.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] 4shlr:
So how exactly do you move Gmail to system apps?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] plambda:
some file manager with root access or adb.

move from /data/app to /system/app
[Thunderbolt Android Development] 4shlr:
Hmm, Weird. I looked & Gmail was already in system apps. Thanks anyway tho
[Thunderbolt Android Development] :
I'm still having problems with this. I thought I had solved it. But I was wrong. Even converting it to a system application doesn't help.

May post a log in a bit.

So I just tried 1.7 of WiFiKill and it rebooted my phone, unexpectedly causing it to only give off 1X service, so I did another reboot and I was back to 3G. Still searching for 4G now. Any reports of this happening to anyone else?

Update: 3:42AM got 4G working again. That app was equivalent to a shot of Jack mixed with vicodin. Now my phone is having a hang over.

I have the ESPN College Football app but am unable to watch any videos in the app. I have also downloaded MX Player, but that hasn't helped either. Is there a fix for it or just a known issue that some videos don't work in all apps?

Can anyone confirm that that LTE toggle to EVDO does not work correctly?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] disconnecktie:
Just use the built in setting. It works just like LTE on/off.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] tbns:
ROM is incredibly smooth, thank you guys.

One quick question - my company's exchange security policy requires me to encrypt the phone. If I do so, am I pretty much out of luck when it comes to updating this ROM when a new version comes out?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] JaymzTA:
Did you install the arm7 codec for it as well?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ksheth2130:
Yea, I did. Is there any type of setting or something I need to do in the MX player? I get sound within the app, just no video.

For those of you having issues with messed up/un readable text, it may be an Apex issue. Simply go to the bottom of the Apex settings an restart Apex launcher.

FWIW, after further Googling it appears that this kernel, unlike the Bamf leak, is missing the TUN.KO mod; thus preventing use of vpn.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] AntiAppel:
For some reason I can't seem to get back of 4g now. It's been working fine until today. Is anyone else having trouble getting a 4g signal. Going to fix permissions, and clear my cache and dalvic. Also, if I want to use LTE the switch should be turned to the ON position correct?

Well most of that didn't work, but it came back on now, so I'm not sure what did it.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] turneja:
Search the jmod thread, someone compiled TUN for this and it works great.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] hallstevenson:
The radios operate on a different level than the ROM does, so permissions or clearing those partitions will have no impact.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] JaymzTA:
There might be a DRM issue with the app like with the Netflix app at the moment.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Sinatics:
Text is jargon

Hey guys I just installed this rom and everything works great except when I go in to the Google Play Store or my launcher the titles for everything appear like this.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] AntiAppel:
Either kill the process for the launcher, basically redraws the screen, or a reboot should fix the problem.

Many developers have moved to either Macs or Hackintosh machines running OS X. One reason is simply a disdain for anything Microsoft-related. Another is that Linux really isn't practical for day-to-day use. Finally, OS X is Unix underneath, so it's an excellent option.

I'll shed some light on what's going on.

Boots. Plenty of issues. Mainly due to using a whack ass Linaro toolchain (Linaro == pile of crap)

No ETAs, no promises. I'm not on VZW anymore so I can't test the radio/data/etc and this phone has just been gathering dust so it's no priority for me.

Yes, it is Jellybean.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] disconnecktie:
When you get ready to test data I'll test it.

[Thunderbolt Android Development] moonlightinwhite:
Stupid question - how do I set a custom ringtone? I have MP3s in my /media/audio/ folder that worked just fine on GB, but they don't show up as an option in the ICS settings. I created moved them over to /media/audio/ringtones/, but they still don't show up. I've also tried press-holding the file in order to set it as a ringtone and that doesn't work, either.

I'm surprised it's this difficult...so I assume I'm missing something embarrassingly obvious :p
[Thunderbolt Android Development] keeverw:
If you can get it to play in Google Music then you can just click menu>>use as ringtone.

That's how I do it.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] bsdesign0000:
I have the same issue... im using Holo HD ... all i do is just Restart Launcher in the launcher settings, and its all fixed
[Thunderbolt Android Development] moonlightinwhite:
Thanks, that did it! Funny thing - after doing that, I went to the ringtones selection in settings and the song showed up twice (but none of the others did). I rebooted my phone and now they all show up and the duplicate was gone. Weird.

I know that the built-in portable hotspot works fine, but I like the added capability of knowing when a device connects to your hotspot that Wifi Tether provides.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe gray bars mean you don't have a connection to Google's servers, and blue mean you do.

About Unreadable Text in Apps and Launcher

Hey folks,

Just wanted to drop by and drop some news about the infamous "unreadable text" that everyone seems to be getting in the Liquid ICS rom - its an issue with the GPU drivers that's causing the issue. There's no definite fix yet. But clearing cache or restarting the launcher seems to be working for now.

Cheers.

Alex.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] wampuscat:
What does that "force GPU rendering " option do in developer options? Anyone know
[Thunderbolt Android Development] onestoploser:
I was wondering this also. I have it enabled but haven't noticed any difference.

It does exactly what it says. debug.sf.hw=1 in the build prop does the same thing.

Does anyone have any issues going into/out of car mode in this ROM? I am loving it so far, ICS runs much smoother than I expected. This is the only issue I've found as of yet, the phone doesn't go into car mode when docked.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] wampuscat:
Well that was enlightening! Lol. I guess I meant what differences would you see with it checked. .
[Thunderbolt Android Development] disconnecktie:
The main thing for that is to prevent homescreen redraws. Sorry for not being clearing. Basically what it is doing is forcing the UI to be rendered using the gpu instead of the CPU.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] trapperjohn:
Hi,

Does it help any apps directly or just the homescreen app?

-Has anyone done this and STILL had a problem with disapearing text?

I seem to remember others have tried it and after a day or two the problem resurfaces.

-Can you do this any with any app that has that problem?

-Do you simply move the .apk to /system/app/? or do you have to uninstall it, then install it specifically to the /system/app folder? If so, where do you change the destination folder for installs?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] keeverw:
I have a question. :)

Before this rom Liquid had an alpha (or maybe beta I don't remember) AOSP ICS rom for the Mecha.

And it had wifi only for data.

I never tried that rom, because I needed mobile data, but I was under the impression than wifi worked perfectly on that rom.

I assumed this new rom was based off of that older one, and how come wifi is jacked up on this rom?

I have data drops all the time, and it doesn't matter if I'm connected to wifi, 3G, 4G or even 1X, it drops routinely. The signal indicator will go gray, or disappear all together. Or even sometimes, it will still be blue, but just not work.

Usually toggling airplane mode will get me connected again for a while, but in the last hour or two that hasn't even worked. I have even cleared caches and rebooted, and it doesn't seem to help.

If wifi was stable on that previous rom, why is it flaky on this one? Or was wifi flaky on that rom too?

I am torn, because I love this rom. I could even live without Netflix for a while (even though I used it often on my previous rom), but I can't live without stable data.

Man, when is HTC going to release that official OTA? Or would that even help?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] wund3rground:
I've moved Gmail to /system/app and I still get the issue every now and then...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] robdec17:
I have never tried the other one but my wifi rock solid on this rom. I'm on wifi 80% of the day at work and at home and it never drops.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] wund3rground:
Just go to /data/app and copy the Gmail apk to your SD card, uninstall like normal, then copy Gmail into /system/app and set permissions to rw-r-r
[Thunderbolt Android Development] keeverw:
I am on wifi about 75% of the day too, and I could live with unreliable mobile data, as long as wifi was solid. (although I streamed audio from a website all 25 miles of my commute this morning and it never dropped out). Mobile data right now is more stable when I'm driving it seems like. But I don't know.

Any ideas why mine isn't?

Or what I might do short of reflashing?

Here is what I did when I flashed this rom.

I was on TShed1.6 prior to this, and I had CWM-Touch as my recovery.

1. Installed 4Ext recovery.

2. Wiped user data (from recovery).

3. Wiped cache (from recovery)

4. Wiped dalvik (from recovery)

5. Installed rom.zip (from recovery)

6. Booted up.

7. Manually installed all of my apps from the play store.

The only thing I didn't do is a "wipe all except sdcard" and some have said that might help me.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] hallstevenson:
I did it and it really didn't "fix" the issue as it still occurs.

FirePsych: You just move the APK. You can't install apps to the /system/app folder. Before you move it, go to Manage Apps and "Clear data" for Gmail.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] wampuscat:
also you can long press on the app in titanium backup and there's an option to convert to system app. I cleared the data then used TiBu to convertt
[Thunderbolt Android Development] FirePsych:
Is that the free or paid version?

I wonder if doing it that way provides for a more permanent fix?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] wampuscat:
Not sure if it has to be paid version or not. But I know I haven't had the problem one time since doing it the other day when that fix was discovered
