I installed this rom on my brother's phone and it was working great for a while, but once he rebooted his phone it started force closing a bunch of different processes and he couldn't do anything. He tried a couple battery pulls and it didn't work. I guess he'll have to wipe and reinstall, but he's at the airport right now and won't be able to till he gets to a computer because of the boot.img trick for ICS, right? Anyone know why this error is occurring and how to fix it? Should he just go back down to honeycomb ROMs? I heard it might be a battery problem, but that was based off one post I saw. His battery does seem to be going bad, though.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
Sometimes after installing...uninstalling......reinstalling apps, the permissions will get all jacked up and start force closing on you. You might try going into recovery/advanced & select the "fix permissions" option. 9 out of 10 times that will straighten things back out.

r9 has the best battery life of any ROM I've run on this phone hand down. it feels awesome to have that freedom. still, its a tough call for me to go with it as my daily just cuz of the front facing camera not working. at the end of the day the battery life is worth it though I think...

I just released r9b. It should fix the bugs that were introduced in the full rom r9 from upstream changes. This means that the front facing camera will work again.

Note that the r9 kernel has not been changed.

I thought the battery was solid also, it worked well for me for a month. But this is what I dont get, Ive flashed to CM9.1 r8 twice now, works well for about a month then I start having battery problems. I dont get it, Im looking at my running apps, apart from the main ones theres nothing on there that should chew my battery. Is there a way I can take a screenshot of the battery stats to show everyone here what I mean? Im losing most of my battery because of "Awake" and today Ive hardly used it, I unplugged it before I went to sleep while it was charged and in the office the next morning it said I had 20% left. I really dont understand what gives with the battery these days Im not touching nothing, account syncs are off. Location service is off so Im not sure what app is trying to make my phone awake every few seconds. Is there an app I can install to generate a report to see whats at fault?

Ok I found the problem, its my work office. Im in the center of my building and I have no signal strength in 3g or barely 1 bar. Its constantly looking for a signal refresh. Its draining my battery constantly looking for a signal and them stupid apps you get from google playstore even though I set not to look for updates for some reason still end up running. Is there a way to fix all these or fix the signal issue other than going to 2g only?

On that note I set it to 2g only and obviously no data is coming through so hardly any processes are running now. Its been 12hours off the charge my phone still reads 100% battery life its insane it hasnt dropped even 1% after 12hours. This kinda sucks cause I like the weather app to update once a day so I can see if Ill get hit with rain on my way to work I dont watch the news lol. But oh well I think I might leave it 2g only and axe 3g all together I dont really browse the web on it unless Im getting sport scores via a few apps

You know people bash the linaro toolchain a lot... Before some modifications I made last night I used to use gcc4.4.3 for compiling loading AOKP the gears would stop at least once during boot.

I was using CM 10 for awhile, but it seems there's still a little work that needs to go on that. I flashed R9B here, but the first obvious thing I noticed was each time I make a call, it starts on speaker phone by default and you have to toggle it on then off again. I thought I read something about that previously, but I cannot remember and a search didn't really turn anything up.

Does anyone know about this?

r10 alpha 3

I'm getting close to releasing r10, but I need some testers first. Here is a link:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/106573684/android/doubleshot/cm9-1/alpha/sv-cm9-1-r10-a3(1-22-13).zip

The new stable r10 release will have 96, 128, and 156mhz steps before 192mhz. The voltages are also increased so these new steps should now work with nearly ALL phones. If you have a phone that normally does not run the exp kernels the new release should work.

You can check my github for more information on what has changed.

Also, I'm building the new kernels with Linaro -O2 optimizations and select parts of CM (dalvik, etc) with Linaro -O3 (the rest -O2).

When posting results please refer to this as r10 alpha 3.

You can brick your phone and tmobile will replace it. Don't tell them you modded it. I've done it now a couple of times because I was having mobile data issues, which turned out to just be a setting issue. Also, for anyone else who has had a problem with the 64gb sd cards with androind 4+, they have a san disk warranty and will replace if it dies.

This is my go to daily driver. Always keep it on my SD.

But the only issue that I have is the audio cutout that is still present. I've been trying to correct it myself since R7.

Audio cuts out no matter if it's streaming or a local file. Bluetooth is fine. But audio physically coming out of the jack gets screwy.

It really could be just my device... but I don't get the issue on JB builds.

Yes, but if you don't tell them chances are they won't know. I sent back a couple, the store guys said they don't know. An ra is created and there is no check between the warehouse and the reps who set it up. That's what they told me.

Re: [ROM] [08-JAN-2013][r9b] CM 9.1 + bat drain fix + usb trans speed fix + other twe

In the latest twrp we have you can manually wipe it. But in CWM its wrapped into the wipe data/factory reset.

I always manually wipe each partition and have for 2 years and I can honestly say I have never had a bad flash.

Most users have bad flashes because they think they are doing a proper wipe when *half of the time the wipe method is less than half assed. Or system data is being restored could also cause issues.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Unrelashade:
How do you manually wipe .androidsecure? So it's not enough to wipe cache and dalvik cache in CWM?

I just wanted to try if I could go back from CM10 from cornyone without a full wipe. Didn't work :( Looks like I have to full wipe now.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
You'll never be able to do a successful dirty flash over the top of another system....i.e., GB, ICS, JB. And except in rare situations you don't want to chance it anyway. Like Strapped said, the proper way to wipe for a new flash is to first go to "Advanced" and wipe Dalvik (twice). Next hit the "back" button & then select "mounts & storage". Then wipe (format) "system" & then hit the "back" button again. THEN....."wipe data/factory reset". That will get the rest as well as another quick wipe of a couple of things again. IF people would make that a habit then there would be VERY few bad flashes....unless you got a bad download of course.

Try to remember that it takes quite a while tinkering with a port to get it to work properly even with good luck in the port. Getting used to doing a proper wipe shouldn't be too tough if you want good results & are thoughtful enough that you don't want to take a chance of feeding bad info back to the appropriate developer. ;)

And the first post is a little vague about the FFC issue... so does it have the issue or is the issue fixed, because I've read both directions in the last ten posts or so.

I understand CM9A1-6 had various bugs, some were fixed, others came to light, and a lot of CM users have come to just accept them or never cared; so it's like everyone's all like "man this is great lolz" but honestly, what are the known bugs?

I know 1080p video record won't work on this phone without sense.

I didn't see if native wifi tether worked (someone asked, maybe I missed the reply but I don't recall reading one).

For that matter, USB tether works?

Looks like the data up-down working-notworking issue is either a case by case thing or resolved altogether. Confirmations?

Any issues with MMS? SMS?

Any issues with Wifi?

GPS?

Bluetooth? I don't use it currently but if I ever get better pay I might

SD mounting via USB works?

Any speakerphone random issues? I read something about that in the other thread, but no mention of it here. for that matter...

Any issues using headphones aside from the volume weirdness two people experienced? With or without mic?

All videos save properly? Last two times I tried CM9 I took videos that were encoded wrong and all garbled on the screen.

Sorry to make such a long list. I really liked CM while I was on it but I always had a lot of oddball things -- even with wipes -- that made me come back to nearly stock Bulletproof. Just wondering if these things are gone. By reading the posts, it seems as though nothing really has changed, it's just a little more stable, maybe a little more tested (but I have to admit I haven't followed it so closely as to know what all the differences are).

Thanks for all your hard work though. You people still amaze me!

Are you sure thats going to work? Because upgrading doesnt appear to be an easy task now that I deleted all that ADB stuff from my PC last year (I have to re-read the latest how to guide, re-install the SDK, etc, etc). Getting CWM installed originally was a challenge for me.

It just seems odd that installing this rom with an older version of CWM suddenly flips a switch and allows USB file transfers to go from 1.1 to 2.0 speeds.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
I also noted drastically slower file transfer speeds. On other ROMS, I can copy files from my PC to the phone at about 8-10MB/s. While using the r2 version of this ROM, file transfer was 250KB/s. Yes, K. Just tested the r3 experimental kernel, same issue. File transfer speeds are abysmal.

Granted, I don't copy files that often, but this could be an indicator of something else that could cause problems down the road. BTW, I am using CWM 5.5.0.4, s-off, unlocked.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] totaldrk62:
Usb copying is incredibly slow on a lot of ICS roms for some reason. The work around I've found is to boot into CWM and do the Usb copying from there. The speeds are right where they're supposed to be. I've never found a fix that actually works within the rom itself. Hope this helps.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] anitgandhi:
you should be able to flash it from terminal emulator. I think XMC had those instructions in his 5.5.0.4 thread

Yeah going into the actual CWM and copying is much faster than doing the copying in any ICS ROM. for me, i haven't noticed any difference in file transferring while in a ROM just because of a different CWM version (i.e. being on 5.0.2.7 results in the same speeds as 5.5.04.

Re: [ROM] [08-JAN-2013][r9b] CM 9.1 + bat drain fix + usb trans speed fix + other twe

Check the stick regarding flashing ICS/JB while S-ON.

You need to flash the new boot.img through fastboot.

Flashing the kernel won't do anything while you're S-ON, so you're still using the old GB kernel and it's acting all buggy.

Good luck

Yep you can take any of these kernels here and mix them with pretty much all our SWaRM ports. That's why we base off CM10 Alpha 1, it was the only JB ROM I could boot with an ICS kernel. Plus a2 and a3 went downhill imho. Anyways I usually run the r7 or r8 kernel when I'm on JB

Yeah that's a safe kernel to run. If your s-off just grab them kernel.zip and flash it, but if your S-ON you will need to download the whole rom and pull the kernel and fasboot it then either flash the modules or push them.

Reason being all the kernels posted are in zImage format and they flash using the any kernel updater zip which basically mashes the new zImage with the current ramdisk to get a boot.img. that's my train of thought anyways
