I have the same symptoms. Freezes, sometimes reboots, sometimes not. Noticed it seems to happen on plug in, but it has happened at other times as well. And I had the pop cover off thing happen, too. Radio issue? Maybe the rapid signal strength change when you pop the cover and remove the antennas does something?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] twistedumbrella:
When there's details about when and what your doing it helps. It may be related to the missing radio stuff and the signal going special when the cover comes off. It may just be that it'd kernel is ancient. I has reboot, on the other hand, can't really lead to much.

The custom kernel will now be part of extras and the other kernel will return. That way I don't have to worry about it as much.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] kylebenton:
This latest build is awesome! My Bluetooth works with my stereo in my car, no force closes,

And smother response time.

The Google Now is laggy, and the phone will freeze up when switching toggles on and off intermittently. The phone works, but the toggle freezes (i. e. the Bluetooth won't turn back on)

The 4.2 keyboard doesn't always work when the second keyboard option is applied.

Whatever you did, the ROM is absolutely brilliant.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ABN85:
I'm not actually removing the battery cover. I took my case off when it was frozen and it rebooted before I removed the battery cover. As far as signal goes, I've been on 4G all day and haven't lost data or had to toggle airplane mode once.

...and we're back.

Holy ****. Netflix used that much just to log in. Wow.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Spikelangelo:
I did an upgrade installation only wiping caches initially. Had lots of FC on pretty much everything until after about 3 manual reboots. After that it was running OK. Then I plugged it in to charge and the touch screen became unresponsive and the system locked up. Turned it off and back on while unplugged and it was fine until plugging it in again. I did this about 3 times until I decided to just do a clean install.

Now it works wonderfully!

Afterwords I realized I probably should have gotten a logcat because that was weird.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Dark Jedi:
All I did was dirty flash wipe cache and delvic cache.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Shadow Death:
I'm going to test this out before I make any claims but I kept having issues with signal loss. It would show 2 Bars but no Internet access. I changed the signal bars to 6 and my signal issues seem to have fixed themselves. I work in an old store down the street from a Verizon store. This place does an awesome job at blocking signal.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Dark Jedi:
I noticed this to. Didn't want to say anything as people would say I was crazy lol. Glad to see I'm not the only one
[Thunderbolt Android Development] 335Deezl:
I'm still getting signal loss when switching between 3g and 4g, but when I do have 4g, it's usually full bars. This ROM has it's quirks, for sure, but it's the best 1 out, if you ask me.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Also, if you come across an issue where you dirty flash and EVERYTHING force closes when you boot, there is a fix without wiping. Go back to recovery, reinstall the update, then re-run the extras and reselect anything previously chosen. When you boot back up, it should be fixed.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] quickdraw86:
Me neither... Not sure why others are having so many issues...?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Shadow Death:
What's bad is it didn't even miss that first post. I just forgot it existed. I don't mean I have better signal bars. I mean it seems like the phone notices that it has signal. Like some how switching to 6 bars vs the original fixes the connection issues. It's really weird.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] osuron07:
Kernel seems to be running smooth so far after 24hrs, I'll try to do more multitasking today and see how it goes.

I tried to search on my phone and and read the last few pages, so bare with me if I missed this topic, but on the 12/4 build my Bluetooth head piece doesnt seem to have sound. It connects fine and stuff, just no sound Lol. Worked on the 11/28 build though.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] twistedumbrella:
I'm still trying to figure out why, because the start points and rough b.breakdowns line up but the 6-bar works and 4 sticks. In code, it doesn't make sense why either.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] gabriel_hart:
Apologies if this has already been covered, but I can't seem to turn on wifi with the new build. It just says "Turning Wi-Fi on...", but never actually turns on. I've tried to wifi fix in the Extras pack, but that didn't do the trick. Anything else I should try?

Odd battery life

So gys, I already broached this subject awhile back, but its back again. I installed systemPanel to monitor apps, and uninstalled juice defender (turns out, it kept rebooting phone). Heres the issue. Yesterday riding the bus, listening to music, I went from 98% to 93% in 1 hour travel time. Last night, sitting at a concert listening to my son, phone screen off, sounds off, my battery went from 60% to an 11% in one hour. This morning sitting on the couch, getting ready for work, not even looking at the phone, in 1 1/2 hours, it went from 100% to 80%. Then riding the bus again, it went down only 5% while listening to music, nothing else.

It seems the less I do with the phone, the more the battery dies. I checked systempanel, and it only shows a couple of things like Friendcaster Pro, Weather Services Pro as active applications when the phone is off, and they are usually 2 to 5 seconds of work. So I really cant figure out why the battery life is so screwy.

I have replaced the battery once around 6 months ago, so doubt its the battery.

Any other suggestions?

Also, call me stupid, but this extra's pack, how do I install and I on on the 12-4 update, anything special that needs to be done first?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] heath2805:
Just flash in recovery and wipe cache and dalvik before flash. A menu will pop up asking want you want ....thanks Twisted, running smooth as hell !!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Shadow Death:
You flashed the kernel from the extras pack didn't you?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] gabriel_hart:
I don't believe I did, but I see that my kernel build date is Dec4. I'm gonna try the standalone kernel from his site - looks like it's a newer build.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] twistedumbrella:
The one in extras is newer. There will be new everything as soon as all the compiles and uploads finish.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jerrya:
oooh! Should I wait to flash the extras then? Or go ahead and do that now?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Shadow Death:
There are so many new posts I'm not sure what's been covered and what hasn't but is wifi not working a known issue with the kernel in the extras?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] major_works:
Is there a new Extras pack since, like, Tuesday? I think that's when I last downloaded it and there is no new kernel in there. I just looked.

Twisted, it'd be helpful if you'd post a date/time for the Extras in the OP as you do for the builds.

EDIT: My kernel version is 2.6.35.14 with a build date of Tues., Dec. 4 @ 21:13 EST. Is this the latest version?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ABN85:
Most of the freeze ups and reboots occur when plugging in charger. Doesn't happen every time, just randomly.

Is it a known issue that the forward facing camera takes pictures upside down? It's been like that for me in everything version of the ROM I've used and whether or not I use the stock camera of the 4.2 camera.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] LABELDAVE:
HELP

it seems my text input is showing double in the input screen, is that normal? and it won't allow me to select swype. :( I must be missing something

NEVERMIND, SWYPE is automatic.LOL

but still weird to see two identical keyboard options in settings.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] heath2805:
Yes you are on the latest kernel.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] twistedumbrella:
It's not a known issue in general.

Last night.

It was dated before it moved to the site, now the date is right on the download button, much like it was here.

Yes, a VERY known issue.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] rrrrrrredbelly:
One is probably the stock keyboard, other is the 4.2 swipe keyboard
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Dwazzue:
An issue I am having with the current build even after clean install is my MMS quit working. Was only able to send one. It was the first MMS I tried.

I haven't tried alternate messaging App yet but tried almost everything else.

All the other builds I tried MMS with worked :what:

Looking forward to next build!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Shadow Death:
OK well, I flashed your latest ice build last night prior to going to work. When I got home this morning I downloaded the most recent extras pack with Tue new kernel in it. I then flashed only the kernel and Google now. After that boot I couldn't get it to enable wifi. I went so far as to wipe everything and flash just the ROM then the extras and still no wifi. This from flash I only flashed Google now and not the kernel and no problems at all.

[Thunderbolt Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Ill try updating the permissions, but as of today the kernel is roughly:

Take my old Playground ICS kernel

add all 40 netfilter patches from CM9

apply all of kali's patches for the touchscreen, video, and all the other stuff I said wouldn't do anything but cause issues

edit the config

revert all of kali's patches because all they do is cause problems

add the video drivers

take them out by mixing a revert in a config update and call it an update

add them back in

take them out again

add 37 commits to kgsl (you only needed 2)

add three commits from aeroevan that are actually useful audio stuff

and...

you will be left with the kernel that was originally in the liquid build minus two patches i don't feel are necessary for the ondemand governor and 35mm headphone jack (which is technically already in there).
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jerrya:
Yea, thats been a problem for me ever since I got this phone years ago, but I didn't notice it increasing with this ROM. What I do notice is that if there is a call, or music playing or I am on the net, I need to avoid doing anything for a good two seconds before or after unplugging, that seems to be the time frame for me when I get the freeze. So when I play music at my desk, I don't hit anything until either well before or well after I unplug. Same with answering calls. I unplug, let a ring go, then answer. And I just shut down the internet and wait a bit before unplugging.

I find if I don't take those little steps, I get the freeze.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Ellises:
Im on my phone so its hard for me to search the thread but i knew it was mentioned before, i wanted to try to the tablet ui cause i love the huge screens, but while setting to anything below 210dpi the dialer will force close on me when making a call or receiving one. Happens when trying other dialers too.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] twistedumbrella:
You're using an old build.

Also a new extras is uploading with the wifi and stuff fixed. It was an issue extracting the modules folder.

gps issues

Hey Twisted, thanks again for all your hard work & time your putting into these builds.

I have an issue with my phone rebooting itself everytime I use Google maps. This only happens if I have GPS enabled, without GPS enabled, map seems to load fine. Any suggestions.

Btw I'm on your latest build with clean install.

Thanks in advance!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] gokudre:

[Thunderbolt Android Development] rrrrrrredbelly:
I've been using 4ext for about 6 months and never had to delete anything. Where did you read that?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
I've had three or four random freeze ups that required a battery pull well hopefully it's fixed next build anyways everything seems good with this build so far I did have random FC but I cleared cache/dalvic fixed permissions and that seemed to fix it.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Ellises:
Nope, im on the latest build as of 12/4, i always keep updated. But thanks for the reply, your probably the only developer who actually takes time to reply back to questions or statements.

I'm at work so i can't look at the logcat, but i did dirty flash this build (with wiping cache/dalvik), so I'll try super wiping a little later today. And get back on here.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jizzyburnizzy:
I've also had a few freezes. 2 happened after i pulled the phone off the charger and the other 2 were just from turning the screen on.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] osuron07:
What are you guys doing at the time of the freeze? I've been on the 12/4 build since it was released and haven't had a reboot, bluetooth issues yes, not freezes though. Kernel seems to be holding up a little better after long use than the one in liquids as well.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] kylebenton:
I just started having issues with reboots as well. Generally when I put it on or off the charger. I did a full wipe and clean install and am in the process of downloading my apps again... it worked great yesterday?

I dunno?

Tether is not working

First off,,,Twisted, THANK YOU for keeping my thunderbolt alive. I was using Barnacle for a wireless tether but it seems to only use half of my data connection speed. I tried the wireless tether in the settings but my computer cannot connect to the phone. Any thoughts?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Ellises:
I've just had two myself, first time was after my phone said battery percentage is less then 15%, second time was after I had freshly rebooted the device, turned the screen off, then back on.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Odd. I just knew it was broken up until the latest. You may not have to do all that, though. Try just clearing data for the phone app. Otherwise boot up in 240, launch phone, then change it back. I've heard sometimes it needs that first launch to settle.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Sirachi:
I'm actually still on the 11/28 build with the .19 radio. Very good ROM, it's quick and responsive. The bluetooth issues have gotten better as the latest builds have rolled out. I usually experience at least one data drop a day that is fixed with airplane mode. I'm a pretty heavy user, finally threw in the Rezound battery I purchased and on 4G, it lasted about 10-11 hours. I dropped it to 3G last night and did a full charge before going to bed, and it lasted 14 hours at 35% when all of a sudden data dropped. I couldn't get it to come back online with toggling airplane mode so I rebooted. After the reboot, the phone came back up and said it was at a 10% battery charge. Kind of strange.

Overall, very happy with the ROM. Will most likely be updating again over the next few days, this time maybe with a dirty flash.

One major annoyance for me that I haven't seen in this thread is keyboard responsiveness. I don't know if it's because I have dry skin or what, but a lot of the times I type and the keyboard doesn't respond to certain keys (a, l, space bar). I'll have to switch fingers and jab at it in order for it to recognize. When I used the other ICS ROM on here, people blamed it on keyboard lag. I don't think this is the case. Is there a keyboard calibration for this ROM?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Dark Jedi:
I get the same thing with the keyboard. I has it where the n key wouldn't work until I put it in landscape mode.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Shadow Death:
I haven't had the keyboard problem but I don't use the stock keyboard long enough anyway.

Edit: Twisted, it looks like your new Playground link is down.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] markmi300:
I had the same thing happen twice. Yesterday and today when I pulled the phone off of the charger it froze. I had to remove the battery to reboot. Also, is anyone else using Go Launcher EX along with Folder Organizer and experiencing some lag time after trying to open a folder or an app?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ryanstfl:
I have the same issue with Smart keyboard. I noticed that if I press back, exit the keyboard and bring it back up it's resolved but it does enough to be annoying.

The voltages on the new kernel may be set to low for your bolt. Try bumping them up. If you were using setcpu or something like that to under volt before you flashed the new kernel it could be applying values that are to low.

download

does anyone know how to get the download progress in the status bar. when i click on something to download for instance the "extras" is shows up for a couple of seconds in the status bar but then is disappears and it only pops back up when the download is complete. Also when i go into the download app in the app drawer there is nothing there indicating that i am downloading. i have to wait until its completed.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] twistedumbrella:
I merged together everything I needed to. There's no real point in having two kernels right now when they were so similar. All the little things like voltages would just be wasted effort when it would only end up in both anyway.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Link_of_Hyrule:
Well I think one Kernel to rule them all is good :) But hopefully you're able to figure out the remaining issues I know it's getting better each build :P

a little help for a noob

Guys, been on here a bunch, and thanks to my memory....wait, do I still have one? Cant remember.

Anyways, about to install latest update (Thanks Twisted! your rocking this place!) and am about to install in addition the "* Extras, Error Reporting, Etc *" pack. I went to the link, and I am assuming its the "Playground Extension Pack"?

If so, can someone be willing to walk me through that installation? Is it before or after I dirty flash the latest ICS? Also, I am using 4EXT for all my flashing, and have only done this really twice, so still not comfortable jumping in without a little guidance. I have been told I just treat it like the ICS ROM, but choose what I want to install? Also, wipe Dalvic and something else, wont that erase all the apps and contacts and calender data?

Sorry if this really is annoying to some of you, but the more I do this the less I screw up and the less I ask later.

Thanks guys.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Install the build however you decide to, then flash the extras over it without wiping, the extras will clear the cache for you. Once you get to the extras menu, don't worry it explains itself.
