Worked just fine. Thanks
[Motorola Photon 4G] niphoet:
I installed the 1/13/13 build, selected EMMC in the setup (don't have an SD card inserted) and I couldn't get the phone to see the internal storage in any directory. I tried /sdcard, /mnt/emmc, etc. I even tried switching mount points under "Advanced," rebooted, and still no luck. I can see the partition in CWM. Any idea what I might have been doing wrong?

Thanks, Th3Bill, for all the hard work!

... Did you FULL WIPE prior flashing ? ...
[Motorola Photon 4G] niphoet:
Re: [ROM][JB-4.2]CM10.1 for Motorola Photon 1/13/13 [Unofficial]

Yes, I wiped manually in CWM (system, data, cache) then I chose Full Wipe in the aroma installer. Where should it have mounted, /sdcard?
[Motorola Photon 4G] niphoet:
Okay, I've done some research and here's what I've found:

When I go into the Terminal Emulator, I can "cd sdcard" and see all of my files & folders on my emmc. Also, Titanium Backup sees the backups on that partition. When I use Root Explorer and select /sdcard, it tells me "The SD card is not currently mounted."
[Motorola Photon 4G] T3HG00GLEG33K:
Re: [ROM][JB-4.2]CM10.1 for Motorola Photon 1/13/13 [Unofficial]

It may just be the options chooser itself. The partitions are different in cm10.1 as opposed to cm10. I haven't ran much of cm10.1 so I don't know if setting the app install location is built in, but there are a million third parties on the market.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
I'll be updating over the weekend...still working on getting BT to work....odd little bug there.

I have had reports of MMS issues sending. I've confirmed and am looking into it now.
[Motorola Photon 4G] chetansaraf:
... Kindly try to fix CAMERA PREVIEW STRECHED issue as well. Looks quite odd :laugh: ...
[Motorola Photon 4G] niphoet:
Re: [ROM][JB-4.2]CM10.1 for Motorola Photon 1/13/13 [Unofficial]

Th3Bill, can you possibly look into the issue of the internal storage not mounting properly? Thanks again!
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
I don't think that internal will mount as an sdcard. I will have to remove that option, as if you choose the standard external only, it works properly in my tests...

If you're looking for titanium to find the sdcards, it's not going to find them the way that you want, as it's set up for a different mount point in previous CM10 builds (which doesn't work in 10.1, so I had to go with the current setup which does work).
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
I'm not sure what you mean....little more info?
[Motorola Photon 4G] chetansaraf:
... sir what i mean is, in camera, things look thinner with phone in vertical mode and broader in horizontal mode. but clicked pictures look fine ...
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Re: [ROM][JB-4.2]CM10.1 for Motorola Photon 1/13/13 [Unofficial]

I'll take a look at it. I'll admit that I'm more concerned with the couple audio bugs as well as BT and MMS(which I already know fix for). If not this build then the next

Re: [ROM][JB-4.2]CM10.1 for Motorola Photon 1/13/13 [Unofficial]

Hey Bill can you tell me why my coffee maker won't connect to my photon? I'm running the latest... Jus kidding Holmes. Seriously I'm glad you're putting in work to keep our photons alive.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Slornn:
So I have been off the forums for a few months and I now found this thread, does this mean 2.3.5 has been unlocked? I would really love to get jellybean on my photon. Any news would be great.
[Motorola Photon 4G] dragontology:
No; they are trying to do so here, though. It looks like, from my layman's point of view, that they are exploring modifying the phone to boot from the SD card. I'm afraid if they do that, performance will be impacted severely (unless you have a really good SD card, like a class 10 maybe), but perhaps they're thinking if they can boot from the SD card, they'll just boot to a proper bootloader, and then flash a real ROM to the internal memory. That would essentially bypass the lock. But I do not really understand all that stuff, so I could be off. I don't think I'm off by much, though.

If you're locked, your best bet is to get Holo Launcher. It will give you most of the Jelly Bean experience in Gingerbread. I have Nandroids of both CM7 (2.3.7) and stock (2.3.5 Electrify) and they're both very ICS/JB-ish. They just suffer from the usual Gingerbread stuff, like neither can hold onto a WiFi access point worth a damn. If I was locked, I would get real serious with my carrier about getting another phone. The sunfire WiFi radio is flat out broken. (I don't know what the ICS/JB ROMs are doing right, but they don't have the issue.) I would at least push and see if they'll offer a great deal on a refurbished Galaxy S2 in trade, in lieu of you dropping their service.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Slornn:
I'm on a dealer line and in contract until july, so therefore can't upgrade until June. Was just hoping someone had found a way to bypass the 2.3.5 lock finally so I could get on JB. Guess I just have to stick it out until June and hope the S4 is out by then.
[Motorola Photon 4G] krrishvaid:
Re: [ROM][JB-4.2]CM10.1 for Motorola Photon 1/13/13 [Unofficial]

Which kernel is to be flashed.......?
[Motorola Photon 4G] dragontology:
S4 is widely rumored to be announced in March/April and available in April/May, so yeah, you should be good. I'm waiting for Note 3 myself. I'm expecting that in October, which is when US Cellular got Note 2 last year (not long after everyone else, in fact). I'm due up for an upgrade in August, but I will wait. I might even wait until this time next year. I don't mind my phone being buggy. I wouldn't mind being stuck on GB if the damn WiFi radio worked. That's why I was in such a hurry to unlock the bootloader in the first place.

Another thing I'm kicking myself for (and feel free to join in) is, US Cellular has a policy where if you get a phone, within 30 days you can trade it for any other if you pay the difference (unless it's less, in which case they will credit you the difference). Well, I got the Electrify because I got what you would call an HTC Evo Design 4G (US Cellular calls it the Hero S) and my wife got the Electrify, and I got jealous over the extra size and specs, and traded. Had I stuck with the Hero S, I would be running JB right now. HTC at least gave that phone ICS, and I believe JB, not sure though. It was a good little phone, but at 4", next to the Electrify, it seemed tiny. Dammit... :crying:
[Motorola Photon 4G] Tempest_Inc:
no access to internal storage...

Can anyone direct me on how i enable the internal storage as well as the sdcard. I was able to do a titanium backup restore, and restore my Launcher Pro configuration backup. I'm not sure why these two items have been able to access from the sdcard but not through a file manage.

Latest Build & Gapps Jan 29, 2012
[Motorola Photon 4G] niphoet:
Okay, here's what I've been able to figure out:

When installing, if you select "EMMC," only certain apps can access internal storage, it doesn't mount as /emmc, and there is no way to mount it as /sdcard

When installing, if you select "SDcard," the internal storage mounts as /emmc, but still can't be mounted as /sdcard.

In other words, the only way to make use of your EMMC is to install using external storage, but you'll still need an sdcard for any apps that point to /sdcard.

I hope this helps.

I know you're working on the bluetooth problem but any chance you got the audio (mic) problem fixed?
[Motorola Photon 4G] ericdabbs:
I am sure that is also on his bucket list to fix. I think that it is smart for Bill not to release another update until the major things like BT, audio (mic), tethering, camcorder are fixed.
[Motorola Photon 4G] secret.animal:
Re: [ROM][JB-4.2]CM10.1 for Motorola Photon 1/13/13 [Unofficial]

Camcorder can't be fixed, hardware driver issue. Use "Videocam Illusion", it works quite well. But yes, Th3bill is working with others like Epinter in the bugs which are evident in both ours and atrix bulls.

I assume so as well just hadn't read progress on anything except Bluetooth.

I was hoping to learn he had the rest fixed and was waiting for BT fix before releasing .....
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Hey everyone....I'm not dead and haven't abandoned the Photon. Just been trying to fix stuff. I have a couple of things to try for BT still, but I at least can say that the microphone thing (voice search, etc), as well as MMS should be fixed at the very least on what I upload tonight...or later this afternoon. I'm building one last try for BT before I upload, then I'll continue to work on it from there. Outside chance that wifi tethering will be fixed on this build as well. :D

Hope all is well everyone

Build is up. BT is still broken, but APNs should be loading now, and MMS should be working (missed an edit on previous builds). Audio for mic should be working also.

I can't test service or mms at this time, as the photon that I have is not activated.

Still working on BT....

Flashed 4.2 and gapps, but can't get Google now to show up. Am I missing something?

That would be because Velvet.apk isn't in the gapps I did. I'll redo the gapps later with the latest ones....for now, download the apk and manually install it

[Motorola Photon 4G] DarkAndr0id:
Thanks for the update bill, I flashed it but I don't have radio signal :( and the info menu shows radio as unknown, did I do something worng I just flashed choosing gsm and wiped system and cache only and installed gapps after that.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Unfortunately, I don't have the ability to test GSM, as I am in CDMA only area.

If anyone with GSM has any advice, please feel free to jump in...

Try without installing gapps. May need to wipe all, as I did some edits to the kernel which may be affecting this...
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Updated Gapps are uploaded. It's the aroma file. It has options for Individual installation or all.

Cheers
[Motorola Photon 4G] bray424:

Hi for all GSM users please make sure the below step after installing rom and gapps....

Flash this file libmoto_ril.so by making your own zip in folder of system/lib/ libmoto_ril.so

for me everything works fine, only the gsm doesn't work.

anyone has this problem too?

any way to solve
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Thank you for the update on the services. I had hoped I had fixed them, but couldn't test.

For now, if you flash this over a CURRENT CM10.1 that I had built, just do a wipe cache and dalvik flash...that won't kill service. I'm working on getting Aroma to work for the GSM/CDMA/USCC choice
[Motorola Photon 4G] ganeshshas:
GSM Working Fine

Bill,

Your current build was working perfectly in My GSM...

I'm facing these issues i think these are easy to solve bye you....

1.I can't able to set My Internal Storage(9GB) as my default memory....when i change Advanced settings also it is by default taking external sdcard as default storage... :(

2.And Portable wifi hotspot is also not working....

Please clarify..
[Motorola Photon 4G] dragontology:
Any advice on getting MMS in 4.1.2 (King Kang) on US Cellular? I think it's because the APNs don't save. I can enter the changes but there is no way to save/commit the changes, and they don't save automatically. Is there a way to fix that within the ROM or do I just need another ROM?
[Motorola Photon 4G] kashis32:
I went from liquid to this from with just wiping the delvik/cache and when I booted up everything worked until I made a call then my radio went out and never came back.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
I'll take a look at it. I don't have a way to test it, but I can see what I can do :D
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
because data for it is different. I will be uploading what I hope is the fix in a litle bit
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
The internal switch may not work properly...I'm trying to work on it, but it's something that just might not be workable given the way that I had to set up the storages just so thatthe phone would even SEE both of them

Wifi Hotspot isn't working....I am still testing stuff on it, but figured that with audio and MMS working, it would be worth uploading this build :D
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
Ok....got some good news. For those of you who want your EMMC (Internal Storage) to be used as your SD Card and the External SD Card to be used as your Internal Storage, I have fixed that edit.

Fixed and Uploaded :)

CHEERS!

Anyone else still having problems with the CDMA radio taking a very very long time to initialize? Running the latest "fixed" ROM and Bill's latest CWM. Installed with a full wipe.
[Motorola Photon 4G] bray424:
Thanks, radio works just fine now! Although this time around, the "full wipe" option didn't seem to work, so I ended up just using recovery to wipe instead.
[Motorola Photon 4G] kashis32:
My radio never came back. Flashed liquid after a full wipe 2 twice and data came back. Then flashed the fix update and only deleted the delvic and when phone booted no service. Waited half hr before I gave up. I guess its my crazy photon:) , thank for all your hard work brother everything you do is Awesome..
[Motorola Photon 4G] bray424:
Still having OpenGL errors that I had the last build. This is what it wanted to send to error reporter:

E/AndroidRuntime( 5091): FATAL EXCEPTION: GLThread 204

I'm aware 3D accel is hit or miss, but these are with apps that worked fine in 4.1.2, so I would assume it's something new.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Th3Bill:
The further JB goes, the more it depends on the drivers we don't have :(
[Motorola Photon 4G] Rhys'Droid:
{edit: Just to clarify, I don't want GSM, I want CDMA Sprint...its not working...I'm trying to figure out why}

Looking at the phone status using the "Phone Info" app it appears that this ROM is setting the default radio mode to "WCDMA Preferred" ...which is GSM, no? I think that it should be "CDMA auto (PRL)", correct? For whatever reason Phone Info is not allowing me to set it to the correct setting, is this something that can/should be changed in the build.prop? (I flashed with the Sprint - non-tweaked build prop, full wipe, latest CWM).

Thoughts?

Guess its back to 10.0 for me, I kind of need CDMA to work! :) Thanks for all of your hard work Bill!
[Motorola Photon 4G] matis820:

BT - GSM

Hi Bill ….

Thanks for all of your hard work , I flashed this rom, in the beginning the Bt and GSM did not work, after copying the file libmoto_ril.so from \customize\gsm\ to \system\lib and zip it again than flash it, my gsm works good, but the BT are not working, is this with everyone or I do something wrong?
[Motorola Photon 4G] niphoet:
Bluetooth is still not working. He'll get it working, though :)
[Motorola Photon 4G] Rhys'Droid:
Does anyone have any ideas as to why my phone isn't finding signal with this ROM? I'm on Sprint CDMA and choosing that option in Aroma. I've tried full wipe, dirty flashing over (working) 10.0, dirty flashing over "stock," I've switched to the newest CWM from Bill, made sure I ran the Aroma prep file, tried switching the ril from the working 10.0 zip to the 10.1 zip, and checked the build.prop. Nothing seems to work. SOMETIMES if I wait long enough it will eventually find the signal, but if I lose signal or go to airplane mode it refuses to come back. Looking the Phone Info screen it usually either shows "WCDMA Preferred" or "Unknown" (and if I attempt to switch it to CDMA Preferred, it won't stick) when I'm running this ROM, whereas with the working ROMS it always shows "CDMA Preferred". I would really like to run this ROM, but clearly CDMA connectivity is a required feature for me. Any thoughts/help out there? Other than this, an absolutely great build Bill, totally stellar! Keep up the great work.
