any way to get the .com button to work ?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] kick buttowski:
Thegreatergood, I would be great if you could put up a guide on how to build rootbox so someone can at least keep it up to date.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dman3285:
I haven't forgotten y'all.. I'm still getting set back up. My PC is being a bi#$%..lol
[Samsung Captivate Glide] jevan24:
Take your time dman. :thumbup:
[Samsung Captivate Glide] yohan4ws:
Want me to setup my hosted server again for you ?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dman3285:
Might need to bro.. I'm in the process of building a new PC from the ground up but it wont be finished for a few weeks
[Samsung Captivate Glide] NucleusFermi:
Should we expect further refinement in it any sooner?

Namastey! My apologies if I sound harsh but I have been waiting quite a long citing some issues with no solutions, so I just wanted to inquire should we expect solutions specially for backlight issues? I believe the light-sensor in this device must be put to use, rather than tying it with capacitive buttons' lights. The thread which has been linked by the author marked this fact more than once that the patches are "NOW" using the sensor, may be I am using the wrong patch, if so, can someone guide me is there any new patch which uses sensors? I have posted similar inquiry in the linked thread concerned as well. Thanks for reading.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] yohan4ws:
Short answer, no you shouldn't EXPECT solutions for any issue..... anything outside of a stock rom is nice to have, majority of the people in the forums (especially developers) are busy ... they tinker at this in their spare time and its an act of generosity for them to assist us with this device (Dman, for example, isn't even using the glide as his daily phone any longer .... )

If you want to build up a dev machine and take a stab at fixing issues yourself I'm sure you'll get more feedback from other devs in this and other forums for pinpointing fixes to issues such as the backlight fix ....

Dman : I've got my server setup at a client site doing some data transfers, once I get it back I'll hardware a line to it so the connection should be better and get you a login ... probably be quicker than your new machine getting setup .. I'll PM you when I've got it back.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] mrk2815:
dman, please can you keep all roms up to date depending on which ones you want to support, i like the jelly bean roms in order AOKP, liquid smooth Root box and the CM mod in this order. After seeing that there was no news i went and installed CM on one of my phones and after having issues , i wiped thee phone clean reinstalled your ICS root rom and then installed the aokp rom on to one of my phones, as i use the other one primary as my daily phone . im having this issue, the google ttts is not working with any of these roms that i have tried, i had to just use talkback with pico and that speech engine is not that great but i would like to have google tts back or some other one but i was just wondering how i can fix this . i know that the google tts is working on the other phone which is running your ICS Root and that has no issues its the Jelly bean roms that have issues with Google tts, is there some code line that i have to enter or modify to get google tts to work or what is the matter. i followed the grater goods instructions to the letter and i still have the issue. its something that hopefully can be resolved i just dont know so thats why i am asking about it. For thsoe who have this rom they can try this first enable talkback in accessibility then go tot the language and input and under tts speech click on that and you will see to tts engines, one is galled google tts an the other one is called pico. if you check pico and chcheck googlet tts what will be hte fining does it work or not if not how to fix the matter. just want to have my favorite google tts back and working thatt's it. the roms areare a great improvement over ics. but due to hte fact tha i use my other phone on a daily basis for my busines i cant afford ot have tha one go ddown and that why i invest in a second one so that i could experiment with one nad use the other one with the ics root until i se whatt's the status on tehese roms. thanks for the great development ,d mankeep it up and hoping that the greater good also comes back to help out when he can as well.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] NucleusFermi:
First of all Thanks for your heed. But I must admit I felt quite resisted to write this as normally I never comment this much OFF THE MARK, stating about workers' generosity and spare-time. I never pressed or denounced anyone for not providing support, this capitally written "EXPECT" is highly misunderstood by you. Secondly, backlight is not something OUT OF STOCK though I never complaint the author, on the other hand, I always keep my queries utmost polite, praise whoever does something good, knowing well about generosity and others' time, very amazed with such a harsh statement.

Most certainly I would do so, as and when I spare some time from these poor souls who come to me with extreme pain and poverty for their health-concerns and I am to serve them anytime they come not just as the professional duty of a resident doctor but also as a human being and I feel very proud and fortunate in doing so. Nevertheless I consider your preposition about me as an outcome of shortcoming of this medium, whereby one is not much aware of others' attitude and feelings when they read written statements. I am sorry to clutter this thread, though I tried my best to avoid such harsh remarks by writing the first statement of my post itself. Cheers!! :good: :)

U need to use twrp recovery
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dude52:
When ever I lock the screen and don't use it for at least 10 or 30 seconds it won't come back on when I try to unlock it. Other than that everything is great but I REALLY NEED HELP Please
[Samsung Captivate Glide] pm2gonzales:
Hmmm.... I tried installing this twice yesterday, and both times my network came up as "Unknown". My carrier and phone number were both listed, but I got an "unknown" network, I couldn't change network type under Phone Information, and and I receive no signal. I did not have this issue with CM10.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Rawr0w0:
But in the installation instructions it says you can use either.

and I don't want to break my current CWMR backups...because if it doesn't work..I have to reflash my backup...

can TWRP read CWMR backups?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] pm2gonzales:
Not true, I did it with CWM
[Samsung Captivate Glide] jevan24:
I also used clockwork. I actually used version 5 I might add.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] kick buttowski:
I now somehow lost access to my external SD card, it just wont mount.

I did tried an older version of litekernel which could have caused it but have since come back to the old version and I still cant mount it.

Anyone seen that ?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] wallac3:
Exactly the same thing happened to me 2 days ago, when I tried to access it in the phone, the only possible way that worked was using root explorer.

And todat, I cant access my internal memory when plug in it to the computer, it shows the amount of info in it, but it doesnt show the folders.

It sounds quite similar, anybody else experiencing this ?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] kick buttowski:
Actually just took a closer look at my sd and it looks like it died on me, windows doesnt recognize it. Gonna give it a try in linux and see if I can at least format it there before taking things up with the manufacturer.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] mrk2815:
any new news on when dman will be picking development of the greater good roms. i'm wondering if he will support all of them or pick and choose which one he wants to work and which ones are not interesting to him. i wish he would do AOKP, Root box and Cm as those are the three most popular roms that have been installed on I927 phones by different users from the time i was ggetting ready to get the roms to install along with the latest gapps for jb 4.2.2. Also i was wondering if d man could also fix some issues in the accessibility of the roms as well since none of the roms can get google text to speech to work out of the box they all have it installed but when you go to check the box in language and input under text to speech output settings in where there is a drop down box where there are two text to speech choices one is google tts and one is pico if you check on google tts there is no speech as i have already experienced this as a blind user of all of these 3 roms. thinking that i had bad roms and i went through all 3 roms an they all have the issue with the google text to speech not working when it's in the roms. Can this be looked at and fixed as i rely on that text to speech which is more human sounding, responsive out of the box working with hte new accessibility whihc lets you enable accessiblity from the set up portion of the version 4.2.2 of jelly bean. Having to use pico which is all right to some but it's no google text to speech as far as performance goes. So could some one who has more development knowledge look at this and see if they can fix this for the future. please a blind guy is asking for help and wants to use custom roms. When i had some one sighted help install these three roms AOKP, CM 10.1 and Root box through the entire process i found this very disapointing wanting to use my phone with the enhancements of accessibility which was only available as far as enhancements to talkback, explore by touch and other accessibility features in version 4.2.2 exclusively. i feel that this could be hopefully looked at and fixed for the future in the three roms that i tried in this order AOKP version 4.2.2, CM 10.1 version 4.2.2 and last Root box 4.2.2 and they all have this problem. if someone wants to try and let me know i would bbe glad to hear any suggestions on the matter.

Mrk, in the most polite way, youre becoming a thread whore... youre askng repeatedly questions that noone has the answer to and putting the same post in multiple threads and asking for etas which , in the rules , is stated as a nono. Dman posted today he has new builds on the way but again understand he is busy and doing this for free. He is aware of the issues and your unique situation as I'm sure the rest of this forum is because you continue to redundantly post it. My advice to you is to downgrade to a stock rom. I had been running pacman and loving it and I found 4.2.2 too unstable to use as a daily driver (gps won't lock being the main issue) so for someone like yourself who relies on having a working phone a beta rom at this point I don't think is right for you. Be patient check the thread do some testing on new releases, report the bugs and keep using a working rom. I have nandroid backups of 3 roms all setup so all I need to do is a brief sms backup restore call logs whatsapp and a couple others... switching builds takes me 10 mins. I suggest you should do the same.

There are bug threads in the general forum, post tts doesn't work in those threads and then sit back and have patiencde like the rest of us or learn to build..
[Samsung Captivate Glide] mrk2815:
excuse me but i have everything working for me except for one thing which was the google text to speech, after playing with that text to speech with the other pico text to speech, i hav found alternative to that solution. Everything for me works right out of the box except for the text to speech and if you say its a bug, i will leave that alone for a new build. i just thought that this was a specific rom thing for the i927. I did not know it was a general bug in all CM, AOKp roms and i will stay back on topic sorry about that. I'm patiently waiting to see what the d man comes up with the roms if this is the final rom. I totaly understand and i wanted to let you know that i am not the only blind user of the d man and the greater goods i 927 roms. i would like to let you know that there are five or so other users o hte i927 roms, that we were just concerned just wanted to make the case. i'm now getting off of my soap box and getting back to my daily work. i'm just going to use the build that Dman provides for us and once my contract is up with the phone i will have to look at real alternatives to this phone . sorry the greater good and the dman have provided excellent development of the roms and i'm grateful to them. i am not going to post until i see some kind of sign from the dman that he has a new build an then i will comment as i test the roms on the phone which has AOKP rom on it. i have two i927 phones one is running ics root from dman and that's my daily driver, the other phone is running AOKP version 4.2.2 So just wondering if this is the case. if the version 4.2.1 is more stable then the version 4.2.2 roms then i will downgrade to that one. just if you can give me some suggestions as i'm a newbee and ii'm just asking newbee questions. I'm truelly sorry for my concerns about the future of the development of these roms on the forums. now i'm off my soap box until i hear from D man when he has new builds for testing purposes.

---------- Post added at 12:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:22 AM ----------

m_6 frai'm sorry how do i go about having multiple nandroid back up. is this some thing i can do through rom manager as that was the approach that i took in getting the roms installed from the three i had mentioned. If you can give me some hints on all this i would truely appreciate it. i'm not commenting any more on any rom development until d man does his best on the new builds which he said would be soon. So i'm just going to be patiently waiting and just using my ics rooted phone as my daily driver an my jelly bean phone as my test unit. So that's the plan. now if you can help me on the nandroid back up how are they done , where are they kept and all that i would appreciate it. Can i take the nandroid back up and keep them off of the phone or how does this all work. Sorry i'm assking these questions but i'm asking them as a newbee of the testing of the roms. i have done other testing and that's not my issue, just wanting to be sure not to brik my phone.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] yohan4ws:
What I do for multiple nandroid backups, I use CWM still... when I do a backup I change backup mode to TAR instead of ... well, whatever the one is that clutters everything with Blob files. So step1, set backup to tar, step 2 backup to (either internal, I use external) ... after the backup finishes reboot, use ES Exporer, go into the clockworkmod folder and rename the backup .. I renamed mine to ICS-4.0.4-MarXX (date). Then I'll go and install a diff rom and repeat. I have Rootbox4.2.2, PacROM-v18-(date)...

CWM when restoring gives you the option to select a backup, and this is how it all works for me.

My emails and contacts sync automatically so I just focus on using SMS backup restore, Call log and Whatsapp and any other games etc. via Titanium backup.

I use Apex launcher so when I restore it across any rom all my desktop settings minus widgets appear .. for the first time I run a rom I do full setup, all email accounts, full titanium restore of all app settings (not system or it will corrupt, going between JB/ICS etc. the settings don't play nicely and end up crashing the system apps..)

this way when new versions come out, patches etc. I can do a quick titanium backup, reboot - full nandroid backup, then an android repair to the other roms play with them and rename the most current backup of what I was using.

Hope this helps.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] mrk2815:
thank you for the explanation. if it is through cwmr then i will need someone sighted to help me set that up which should not b an issue. im truely sorry i want to help out in areas that i can d man. i want to make this a very good experience for all of us who are helping the dman and the greater good develop the roms for them. again thanks for all of the suggestions i have made use of all of them. Again thanks for giving me an explanation of how nandroid back ups work.

Is there any way to fix the bluetooth issue? It doesn't work for any bluetooth headset. In California it is illegal to drive without a handsfree device, so this is kind of a needed feature. I hear absolutely nothing from the device until I end a call, to which I am bombarded with some loud static.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] thescot33:
From my knowledge it's a Google issue in stock... It has been getting better with with each release... I know with my stereo Bluetooth (Pioneer) if I plug the stereo jack into the phone the BT works fine... Streaming music now works too

No sound?

I have the problem of ringtones/notification sounds not working. My alarm and locking sound work but my ringtones.. nadda. Anyone else have the same problem?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] antharr:
I haven't had any issues with sounds, notifications, or ringtones. The only issue I have experience is the rare random reboot which I think is a kernel issue.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] mrk2815:
can ask a rom specific question. i would like to know with this rom can use other launchers like apex as well. I just need to know i am in the process of flashing this rom tomy i927 since its in the shop getting repairs i figured i would ask them to install this rom as well. i was wondering would I be getting the best of both worlds CM and AOKp all in one. Is that correct. From what i have been reading this is the most configurable rom.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] yohan4ws:
i can confirm apex launcher works with this rom.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] mrk2815:
one more question. Are there any SD card issues as the other roms have had from Aokp and CM.I know that i can get the on screen jb keyboard for Jelly bean from the play store. Also with the audio issue for the camera does the LG camera app work. Since i don't use skype or voip service, that does not matter for me, Also i use hardware headsets instead of blue tooth since i have never had great results with blue tooth from gingerbread to ics and now i'm the process of telling my shop that the i927 phone is at to do the rest. Thanks for all of your help. I am hoping for a very awsome experience. what isthe likely hood that this rom will be developed further as there isa CM 10.1 M2 rom under development. Hopefully the grater good or dman will decide to ake a second look at just supporting it to have us just witha complete vanilla root box but if not i am compled with having the phone work for me iwth Vanilla root box. I am also using an app for gps so that will not be an isue to get gps locks on the Vanilla rootbox rom as well. So just waiting for my phone to come back from teh shop ot experience this rom.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] math_green20:
I'm giving it a test drive this week, just flashed yesterday. Everything works fine for now, I haven't tried Bluetooth or Gps yet. Only problem I had was that I couldn't update straight to this from Dman's Pac-Man rom. I had to go through Cm10.1 first, I don't know why..

Thanks thegreatergood you did a great job, i'm so happy to see this phone is still not dead

Will we see PA Halo on this rom eventually? It seems to have been already integrated on official rootbox fw.

Envoyé depuis mon SGH-i927
[Samsung Captivate Glide] yohan4ws:
This rom is dead bud.. don't expect to see anything outside PacROM or Cm10.1 until the bluetooth and audio issues are resolved.

Once those issues are fixed, there are some minor annoyances like pictures being rotated when taken in portrait - some physical keyboard keys aren't working in some apps - ... Maybe something else ? ..

either way, when we have a working base then maybe someone will continue on and create more roms like AOKP and rootbox etc.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] math_green20:
Anyone tried to upload pictures to facebook over 4g on this rom? It does not work for me, it works from wi-fi though.

[Samsung Captivate Glide] taiber2000:
Why not using diffrent keyboard like AnySoftKeyboard? It workes great in cm10.1 as i used it to write this post.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] thegreatergood:
lol yeah sorry ... just confused ... worked for me is all ... they modified the gapps package .... the 4.2 keyboard should stop crashing but the slide features don't work... though this is a slightly newer gapps package than the one i flashed ... that's probably it .. .... 4.2.1 Gapps - With Multi DPI alright just tested these ... the keyboard works and facebook installs :) ... OP updated
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Laugher19:
Will the slide features eventually work?

Also why is the play store icon like that? Is that because it is a special version for multiple DPI?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] thegreatergood:
maybe ... and yes
[Samsung Captivate Glide] twinsfan14:
Awesome ROM. I like the smaller DPI. Quick question though, can I flash any paranoidpreferences APK?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] thegreatergood:
updated a bunch of fixes keyboard lights work .... as well as ota updates :)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] lorddavid:
with ota updates will be able to apply all the updates that you do without reflash?

And Dman update the 10.1 to beta 3 the other day, you use the 10.1 as base and have the latest updates? (sorry for the noob question :P)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Roeni:
Is the play store issue fixed?

I currently installed the newest build of this rom (RootBox-JB-i927-Nightly-20130112.zip).

I did a clean install (wiped data, system, caches)

But the play store won't let me install about 15 of my apps including: Facebook, Chrome, GPS Status, Dropbox

:crying:

Edit:

Ok, gapps-jb-201311-4.2.1-I927-ONLY.zip fixed this issue. But now the play store is themed black, any way to get it white again?

Maybe this should be in the OP?

Great work so far! :)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] magicninja:
Where did ya get the new gapps from?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] soadzoor:
That's something I also would like to know... the one thegreatergood posted is a broken link (or not valid, something like that..).. and the one in the op doesnt work properly
[Samsung Captivate Glide] magicninja:
I searched around....hmm no luck
[Samsung Captivate Glide] thegreatergood:
i reverted to the official gapps .... the others were causing problems ..... with voice dialer .... and updating... haven't had time to update OP...

this is not a port ... vanilla rootbox is very different ... though they use the same device tree ... somewhat
[Samsung Captivate Glide] soadzoor:
I also would like you to know that keyboard lights is still on when keyboard is closed (actually it's ON exactly when capacitive button lights are on), so If you dont touch them, nor the screen for some seconds (6 maybe), than it goes off, but til then it emits light, even if it's closed.. That's not battery friendly I guess.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] thegreatergood:
i know, there is still room for improvement with the code .... but its a start ... and the lights do work ...
[Samsung Captivate Glide] thegreatergood:
OP updated ... i plan on reverting to 240 dpi because this is not the proper way to fix the clock being cut off and i dont want people to have to use multi dpi market furthermore i want to try and stay stock
[Samsung Captivate Glide] magicninja:
What exactly did ya update?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] thegreatergood:
Check the changelog .... the biggest feature I implanted was ota updates .... for that I needed to build twrp ... to do that I had to slim down the kernel to half its size to fit the recovery partition ...
[Samsung Captivate Glide] magicninja:
Ahhh ok I knew all that I thought you posted a new update after that one
[Samsung Captivate Glide] lorddavid:
with ota update we can receive updates from the rom without flash everytime that you upload a new version with fixed? i dont understand very good D:
