I backed out this upgrade, as I had some strange screen behavior. No one else has reported anything like it....so it may have been procedural.

The screen would freeze and stop updating while events continued. It occured with all apps, including the launcher, and even notification pull down. If I stopped a frozen screen app and put a different one in the foreground, most easily done with the Home button, then returned to the frozen app, I then saw the updated pixels. Any actions or updates by digitizer would have been made but I did not see them. Very strange.

Update from the prior revision of the ROM was done with clearing cache and Dalvik cache, but not clearing /system.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] nergrum:
Yeah, thank you for being so quick to figure this out.

On another topic, I tried the V6 supercharger. I havent noticed much of a speed improvement. I am going to chalk that up to an error on my part, as I only ran Update9_RC10 and let its do its thing using the automatic settings.

Still, considering the age of our hardware, really smooth ROM.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] trofmoc:
This rom much smoother than previous

But adding v6 did help some forme

Does this have wifi calling? I searched this thread but can't find anything about it. I might also be blind. If it does how's the performance of it? Any lag?

Roads? Where we're going, we don't need roads!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jggimi:
The problem is confirmed to be procedural; so is the fix: a) wipe /system, then b) reinstall the ROM.

I had time to try again this morning, after returning to the Oct 11 build over the weekend, only this time, I wiped /system along with cache and Dalvik cache. Screen "freeze" no longer occurs.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] PdtS:
This didn't work for me: just had another freeze, ~8 min into the freshly flashed rom.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jggimi:
When I went to answer you to commiserate ... the screen froze. I'm thinking it might be related to keyboard software. I have Swype installed and was using it at the time of freeze. Would you happen to be a Swype user?

(Restoring from backup again.)
[myTouch 4G Android Development] PdtS:
I usually am, as a matter of fact, although I didn't have a chance to install it on this rom. Like I said, I only had about 8 minutes with it, and I was browsing though the system setting when it froze. It does seem to freeze when actively used, could this be CPU/governor-related?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] DylanTheVillian:
No WIFI calling until T-Mobile has a phone running Jelly Bean.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] PeterC18st:
Thank You brother for the response.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jggimi:
I don't think so. The underlying application continues to function, we just don't see it. This is something related to application display, and is unique to you and me. If its not one particular application only you and I use, then it must be something unique to our platforms. I'm guessing that you didn't have time to install any software other than perhaps Google Apps. So there is something about our platforms that is different than other users of the ROM. There were two screen providers, Sharp and Sony. I have the Sharp LCD-SH-C2 panel on this phone, according to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T-Mobile_myTouch_4G#Screen

Big Thumbs up :good: for elginsk8r and all the people who are working on this. I have downloaded and installed the latest build and would have replied earlier, but I am new the forum and you know what that means. :silly:

Anyway, this is super. A little irritating with the WiFi, but I prefer to view it as a 'quirk' and not an issue.

If you need any specific feedback, I would be happy to provide it. I am not a programmer, but I have been involved with IT for about 30 years or so and I am just getting my feet in the pond here.

Anyway, keep up the great work and thanks again!

[myTouch 4G Android Development] darjama:
Today's update fixed my flipped-screen when turning on, at least so far. Fingers crossed. (Edit: I'm still getting a few screen flips, but not nearly as many as before. )

Video recording may not be working still, but front cam does, and the camera's responsiveness seems improved.

Wi-Fi passwords still aren't saving for me. Funny thing is, the Wifi Key Recovery app shows that my SSIDs were restored by my google account, but they aren't seen in WiFi settings.

All in all seems smoother too. Heckuva update, thanks!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] eu4ria:
I was having the same issue as PtdS and jggimi, todays seems a lot better though, I did notice a couple of slow screen redraws though.

The screen is also doing the occasional flashing when off, which I have seen in several recent roms, so not sure what the cause of that is.

Will continue to test this weekend.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] aznanimedude:
i can confirm i get slow redraws, and so right now my pulldown notification bar just doesn't work or update so it's 11:53 pm all day every day, but the phone is still more or less functional so it's more of an annoyance. I believe in your ability to fix it though so i'm not taht worried :)

log filling with "rmt_storage wait event ioctl failed", killing battery

Hi everyone, I tried this ROM over the weekend, but my logs were filling with lines like this, over and over again:

rmt_storage( 3300): rmt_storage user app start
rmt_storage( 3300): rmt_storage open success
rmt_storage( 3300): rmt_storage shared memory ioctl success
rmt_storage( 3300): rmt_storage mmap addr = 40011000
rmt_storage( 3300): rmt_storage wait event ioctl failed

Any ideas of what could be causing this? I couldn't even manage to find a good explanation of what rmt_storage was, other than some kind of interface to the eMMC. I was thinking it was related to me installing a bunch of apps, but it might be completely coincidental. The logs don't really point to any specific process responsible for the errors, either; I just get those 5 lines again and again with different process ID numbers. Argh.

On top of that, for what it matters, I'm really looking forward to my wifi password persisting between joins of the network, hehe.

Thanks!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] elagrew:
"rmt_storage wait event ioctl failed"

Yeah, I too see some of these: "rmt_storage wait event ioctl failed". But they are not filling up my log files, they are pretty regular. I imagine they have something with the SD card, but that is only a guess.

This version of the ROM is good for me. No real issues. Good screen speed. Still the wifi credential issue. But that has been mentioned. I can't see where this version breaks anything...we must be getting closer, as far as I'm concerned, it's all good. Keep up the great work elginsk8r!

Woo Hoo!

When you connect to a wifi that has a password and you turn off your wifi, it forgets the security information you entered.

Just a quick poll for people having the screen flashing/flickering while off problem....

If you go into hboot (vol. down + power on) under system info it tells you what screen you have ALSO tells you which touch panel.... so please tell which you have!!!!

Which LCD?

LCD-SH-C2

LCD-SO-C2

AND

Which Touch Panel?

ATMELC12_20aaT

ATMELC12_20aaY

The reason I'm looking into it is because I have 2 MT4Gs and one of them has the problem LCD-SH-C2/ATMELC12_aaY... The other is still the crappy screen with a different touch panel LCD-SH-C2/ATMELC12_20aaT and DOES NOT have the problem.

That is quiet weird as jwhood has the so-c2 LCD and the 20aaT Touch Panel and i have complete opposite LCD sh-c2 and Touch Panel 20aaY and others with other combinations so that would be effecting both screens and both touch screens in any combination??

Has anyone experienced this? Do you think this is an issue with the Class10 32 gig SDCard made by patriot?

When this occurs, I have to factory reset the phone in order for the google play store to reload all my apps. But I have lost all my custom settings and have to redo everything again.

I am almost finish tweaking and adding all my custom settings back in place and this time will do a CWM backup and save the backup to my pc. But it is a pain to copy all my videos back and the USB data transfer is not very fast.
