Hi,

I tried flashing this on my wife's fascinate with the CWM blue voodoo lagfix recovery 3.0.2.8.ti . That's the rev of CWM I already had on the phone. I got an assert failed when it checked the model of the phone and then aborted. How do I get past this point?

Thank you!
[Fascinate Android Development] bbrad:
Look at droidstyles guide in fascinate general
[Fascinate Android Development] rlewis19:
Yay! I got the latest Avatar loaded. Unfortunately, I tried installing gapps from recovery and haven't had much luck. It says everything was successful, but I don't see the Play store and other apps in my app drawer.

This ROM is fantastic! My wife loves it which makes me most happy!

She and I were talking on her speakerphone twice today and we noticed the voice "bounceback" was significant. By bounceback, I mean when you hear your own voice echoing back to you from the other persons speakerphone. Has anyone else noticed something similar?
[Fascinate Android Development] bippi79:
Next update is based on CM10.1 RC build. We hope it will be rock solid and you should not see these issues.

Hi,

My wife has 2.10b installed and was wondering if I'm missing a setting that turns on the voicemail indicator. My wife and I did a test which showed the voicemail indicator didn't come on.

Also, she mentioned the ringer stopped being audible after 2 rings. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Never faced this problem. But please upgrade to 2.11b version which is based on CM10.1 RC2 tag. It is more stable than 2.10b.

[Fascinate Android Development] JLawL:
This isn't necessarily Avatar related, but is there a way to either disable the quick settings panel, or to not have it show up in front of my notification drawer every time I pull down notifications?

The previous ROM I used would default to the notification drawer. And then you had to tap the upper right corner to get to the quick settings panel. Its the exact opposite in this ROM, and its driving me crazy >.>
[Fascinate Android Development] bippi79:
Swiping on the right edge of the screen will take you to quick settings and left will take you to notification. You can disable this behaviour from settings, system, quick settings panel, quick pull down.
[Fascinate Android Development] JLawL:
Got it thanks. I tried that once before but I guess I had to restart the phone for it to take effect.
[Fascinate Android Development] rlewis19:
We just updated to the Avatar ROM 2.12b release. We're noticing the phone is more sluggish than before. I didn't factory reset the phone before applying the update. Should I have? Is anyone else noticing the sluggishness?
[Fascinate Android Development] Unjustified Dev:
Its good to wipe dont keep data you can back that up and try to restore it afterwards
[Fascinate Android Development] bippi79:
Official changelog for 2.12b release can be found here - http://avatarrom.com/update-2-12b-for-avatarrom/
[Fascinate Android Development] rlewis19:
Well, we reset the phone and wiped everything. This latest update is more sluggish for us. For example, hitting the settings button sometimes takes 2 to 3 seconds before it comes up without anything else running.

Also, our wifi reception is not too great even when being close to the router. Is there a better radio version we should be using?

Our phones details:

Model: SCH-i500

Baseband version: S:i500.04 V.EH03

Kernel:3.0.78-g69c9cbc
[Fascinate Android Development] Unjustified Dev:
Try another kernel look on my domination ROM thread on the last page there's a link to kernels you can use.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] erichung_13:
Hi XDA users

My prime is in RMA waiting to be fixed as I had bricked it. It will cost me $200AU to fix the motherboard apparently, but before I pay them I was just wondering if I am able to unlock the device and root again, as some people have posted that they are unable to unlock or root after RMA. I asked the tech and he said it will come back running 10.4.2.16, I was just wondering if there was a way to unlock and root the device, or is it on a firmware which is going to be stuck on stock forever I have only a few days to reply to the tech, so any information, steps, or guides on how to unlock and root (unlock mainly) would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance guys and gals

Also if it helps I am in Australia
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Restorer:
I would check back with him that you have the correct build number. 10.4.2.16 was not a public release.

I suddenly am getting errors from Google Chrome saying that this site (XDA) has been infected with malware that could damage my PC. It gives me the choice to close it or continue. I took a chance and continued, but it has me bothered. Anyone else getting this error?:fingers-crossed:

(As in yes, getting the malware notice)
[Nexus 7 General] Miami_Son:
As I said in the OP, this is happening on my laptop (PC), not on the Nexus 7.
[Nexus 7 General] dianeofarcadia:
If you look in the general xda thread, there are some conversations going on about it. Hopefully it will get resolved shortly.
[Nexus 7 General] Miami_Son:
I ran Malwarebytes and it found nothing, but if it is too new for the scan update it won't be found. I hope it isn't anything to worry about. I'd hate to think I got something bad from XDA of all places.:eek:
[Nexus 7 General] gnustomp:
I think it has to do with some people's signatures.

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] D.Spirit:
Thanks to xperiablog.net for providing the Sony's new launcher

It requires Android 4.0.4.

It is not official, it's leaked and does not contain new widgets or themes, so think it as a beta version

To install the launcher:

1) Enable "Unknown Sources".

2) Install the launcher.

Make sure to backup your currently home launcher before installing the new.

To return to your previous launcher:

Settings --> Apps --> Xperia Home --> Uninstall updates

Please help, I keep on getting a cannot connect to camera error and I found out that my msm camera controls doesnt exist on my dell streak 5... Please help, can somebody post a copy of those control files? Its in dev/msmcamera... Thank you
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Why not download one of the custom ROMs in development and pull the files you need from there?
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] punkbabe37:
Thanks for the advice sir but I already downloaded custom roms and there's no dev/msmcamera controls there... What im looking for is the control0, control1, frame0,frame1 files in msmcamera.. It's all missing..
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Well, a little more detail is useful. What ROM do you have? Have you tried one of the stock deodexed ROMs (also in Development) to get the files you need?

I don't know how many are still on stock ROMs, which is why I'm mentioning alternatives.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] punkbabe37:
I am using gingerstreak now, I also tried streakdroid and miui.. But the msmcamera files still missing.. I had my dell streak checked and they said the camera is not broken they say there's just a missing driver or somethin. And according the logcat dev/msmcamera/control0 doesnt exist.. And when I go checked it it's not there. Msmcamera folder is empty
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deysmacro:
well.. it is confirm those files are not there at dev/msm_camera for custom rom pcm7 but the camera is working correctly for both front and back... no such thing as can not connect to camera error...

maybe you should clear the data for the camera because if the file is corrupted, those error would popup... and do wipe cache as welll...

or simply install stock 2.2 rom...
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] punkbabe37:
Sir, even before I use custom roms those control files from msmcamera is missing... I used to have it when my camera is working.. I already tried clearing the data, factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik.. Nothing seems to work.. where do I get the stock 2.2 rom? Is it posible to downgrade? Thanks for the advice..
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deysmacro:
have you tried to install alternative camera application from google play? try that first...

and if you dont know where to get those 2.2 .. hmm.. it seems you have a lot of homework to do...
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] punkbabe37:
Also tried using other camera apps from play store but still won't work... Il try to downgrade to 2.2
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] imompero:
I am trying to not be forced into Verizon's share everything plan so I am looking to purchase the sg3 without a contract. I have done the math and with the increases in the new plan over two years it will be cheaper to buy it out right and keep my current price and unlimited data plan.

Where do you guys recommend buying the phone from.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thesoldier:
Check out swappa.com, I've done business on there before and it went real smooth.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bobAbooE:
Yep. I bought from them and had a good experience. But always check craigslist and eBay too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] aooga:
I wouldn't reccomend craigslist, but ebay and swappa are always options. If you want a new one, you could even go to the verizon store and they can give you the phone for full price.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ssphaneuf:
Bought mine off craigslist just to keep my unlimited data. I paid 250 for the phone because there is a blemish on the top right corner. I .Ade sure everything was legit as far as clean esn , and in full working order.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thesoldier:
If it's for your wife then I would say AOSP is probably not the best idea, seeing as it usually has more problems than TW. Go with a stock debloated Rom like CleanROM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] imompero:
What do you think about the latest stable CM 10? She didn't seem to like touchwiz and all of its clutterness and would rather have a more pure android experience, but with a new devices like the sg3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thesoldier:
That would probably be good for her unless she likes tons of customization. Personally I have not used CM10, but if she wants the vanilla android feel and not TW, then definitely give it a try.
