when do you provide to add usb otg support?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
Should be built into kernel(not 100% sure... Why not test and confirm?) May not be enabled by default.

Otherwise... updates for all. Same as my CM build. info and links in OP.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] cuiltheory:
Can you recommend some power menu. The Extended Power Menu did not work well. Thanks
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] cuiltheory:
I am kind of slow. I just realize that the rom do not read my sim card. What do I need to change in my build to have the rom read the sim card?. Thanks
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ronbon:
Thanks for keeping this device relevant silverL. I got an little issue that seems to be happening with this current update. My screen has refused to come on twice today when I tried to wake it up. I opened it, pressed the power buttons, the led and the keyboard will light up, but the screen wouldn't come on until I took the battery out. The only real mod I've done to it was v6supercharger. If you, or anyone else has any suggestions, id appreciate it.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] bit1:
I'm having this same screen goes off and only a battery pull will allow you to restart it. I'm assuming it should be this way but it happens on this ROM and CM 10.1. Unable top do a logcat since I have to pull the battery to restart. Anyone know any other way we noobies can help find what's causing it? Other than that though everything on this ROM is running pretty well.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] risis78:
How do I activate it if it has been disabled?

I tried to use stickmount to see my pendrive but it did not work...

(I have installed the last version of ROM and kernel - April 8)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SKAm69:
Download Kernel Tuner and check Misc settings where you would find usb otg switch.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] cuiltheory:
Sorry to bug in, but do I need to clean wipe before update?. Hate to reinstall all the apps again. Thanks.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
You dont HAVE to. Its recommended... but to each his own. Dirty flash, if you have problems then clean.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] risis78:
Also trying to activate OTG with Kernel Tuner, the phone still does not recognize the connected devices.

Thanks anyway
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] cuiltheory:
I installed the kernel tuner, but still no luck. Could it be the file system?. The sd external is formated with fat32 and so the usb stick. The other explanation I see that the phone do not supply any voltage to usb stick(lights never come on). It would be nice if it work. Well, back to another news: I love this rom.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
You may be correct on the power thing: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1820375
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] cuiltheory:
I have external usb drive that have power supply , but I am concern about the voltage flow. It look to me that the phone was design to have voltage flow IN but not OUT. Hooking up powered device could damage the phone as the voltage could flow OUT, unless there is diode protection(does look like it is). Well, it was a try. Unless the usb device would be powered by a battery, I do not trust the wall plug converter. It could send voltage spike and fry the phone. I another news: I installed the new google play store and works fine.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
If voltage went out in the first place wouldnt smaller devices like usb flash drives work immediately. People think they dont need power but they do.

Also those wires should be made with that in mind users use them for the sensation which is essentially the same device sans keyboard.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Limewirelord:
That's not how voltage works. USB always supplies 5V. If the phone isn't supplying 5V and your device is using an external power source, nothing will happen to your phone.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] slitheredxscars:
Backup, then do the dirty. If you get an std. Then just wrap(wipe) it and try again. No stds. :) always practice safe sex.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] cuiltheory:
I do not want to look like an ungreatfull bastard or that I complain, but the April rom is a "bad news" for my phone. It overheat, angry birds playing in slow motion. Spririt radio would not work ( no sound at all). The battery life went down very fast. Flash the March rom back, and everything went to normal. I did not do any kernel tweaks. Just flash.Sorry for the bad news, but the April rom sucks on my phone.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SKAm69:
Maybe the battery yes, but I'm not seeing all the other things you are talking about. Do wipe everything and then clean install.

Even on 1.7Ghz, no overheat. Just tested Angry Birds and it's fine. Spirit radio works.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] cuiltheory:
Yes, I did clean wipe. It could be my phone, but the March 31 works fine. No lags with game, the batt life is excellent, no overheating, gps lock on fast ( with April rom the gps shows poor signal and will not lock on satellite) and everything works fine. For now, that rom it is a keeper. Thanks.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
I would understand the heating. Optimization flags can cause things like that, those will be changed. That nothing else changed for you to be having issues.... soooooooooooooo hmmm
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] cuiltheory:
I did clean wipe the phone and re-install everything. I notice the slow motion with angry birds, the heating, battery life went to half. Sorry to bring this news and could be my phone, but the March 31 rom works very good. I do not understand why is the April rom "messing up" on my phone. Just related what I experience. Please - do not shot me for that. On the other news: I took photo of a flower. This camera is amazing. I put in zip format, so you can enjoy full size.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
Haha, its all good. I think its the flags. We shall see what happens in future updates.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] _nobody:
when using the torch, the screen turns off after 10 seconds as well as the flash light. is it not supposed to stay on?

after it turns off/screentime out, the torch item is still selected on, i have to turn it off and on again.

also after phone calls the phone app force closes.

the auto brightness is also always on low.

anyone having these issues?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
Will see what I find out. Also updates in OP.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SKAm69:
There have been such issues with stock torch app yet since cm9. I use Flashlight plus and it works with the screen off.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Ziida:
Wow your colours came out great. I've had shots come out with better focus than that, but I usually get noticeable red/green/blue spots everywhere

Cool! I didn't know an app would be able to fix that problem. Now I wonder if anyone has an app that can access the extremely high brightness that N1 Torch can, and be able to keep light on with the screen off
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] cuiltheory:
I try to get in focus but was windy day. The only setting I change was the "super jpeg".
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Ziida:
Interesting- that option only occasionally appears for me on 4.2 camera (on jellykang).
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] wiswis:
My status bar just disapeared and I can't get it back!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] mattlowry:
Did you activate pie?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
Is hide status bar checked in general options?

OS thats in ROM Control.

[Fixed] Battery Life

After first flash i was getting absolutely horrible battery life. Going from 45 to 40 within 2 minutes of light usage. Realized i was still on cyanogenmod kernel. Flashed the new boot img. Let my phone run down to 5 percent. Wiped battery stats and did a full charge to 100. Now its been 2 hours since i unplugged my phone and i just dropped to 99 percent:D
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
Not going to lie... The idle battery life is amazing, while the phone is in use the battery life can drop significantly. You can see 100 drop to 99 then drop. But will IDLE AMAZINGLY!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] wiswis:
Ya it was checked but I didn't foot lol
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
weekly update
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] sofyanator:
Yeah im starting to notice that. Does the new update fix the battery life. Is it worth it to flash it if that's all im looking for or should i wait for the next one?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
Depends on what you mean by fix battery life... So far I dont know of any battery life problems. If there are any battery problems... its ROM(Jelly Bean) related because the kernel is the same one used in scverhagen's CM9.1 which has "amazing" battery life. :) I'd say check whatever apps you're using because I got nothing else that it could be.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] bit1:
I'm having some random reboots on the 04/20 build. I've tried upping minimum voltage but it's still rebooting. Otherwise as always a pretty solid build. Thanks SilverL
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] _nobody:
im also having constant reboots after 2 clean fresh installs
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
I had one softboot since this build. It had to do with database files because I did a dirty flash.

You say fresh install. Give me the process you used.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] seansc144:
I'm having reboots too. Not to gripe or anything
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
Go on,

Dirty or clean flash?

Apps restored? If so, How?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SKAm69:
I'm seeing reboots only when enabling wifi and not always. It's been like this on all ROMs since CM9. Sometimes it's frustrating, especially when you want to show something to somebody and wifi is needed and you have to wait untill it reboots. I remember myTouch 3G Slide had the same issues with wifi reboots but the hardware is way different. I wonder if it can be ever fixed and what causes it, the kernel?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] seansc144:
Sorry it was on cm10.1... You're all over silver.:)

I did a dirty flash. I never had this problem before though.. Not to the extent that its happening now it was more like how skam described once a week or so. Still like the roms though :beer::beer

I'm on the previous build now with no problems. Thanks again Silver and all developers who make having an android phone more than interesting after 2 years:thumbup::thumbup:
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] bit1:
Haha. Mine just rebooted while typing a reply on mobile data. It was about the amazing idle battery life on this. Anyway, I always clean install so forgot to mention. I wiped factory, cache, system, and Dalvik if that helps. My minimum voltage is at 192 but it still seems to random reboot. I don't app restore. I let the Play Store just download the apps itself.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
I always tell people android is a test of sanity. This is most likely a kernel related issue. Can you guys try wild kernel or one of scverhagen's stable kernel? If you guys are good with a previous build.... I am hoping it could be toolchain related. I will compile with the stock kernel or an older linaro kernel and you guys will have a new test. I cant promise a test release today but I will try.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] bit1:
No worries. Take your time. You give sufficient warning in the OP that these builds aren't for those looking for stability as much as cutting edge. Just an update. I did flash Wild Kernel and after an hour or so I did just experience my first random reboot still. Hope that helps in some way.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] _nobody:
i came from build 4. i flashed the boot.img and updated my recovery first

then wiped data/factory reset.

wiped cache

wiped dalvik cache

installed the zip

let it boot and load for 5 minutes

installed gapps

still get soft resets. like when i first switched to widgets to add the clock, the purple gears screen comes up and soft boots.

try to add more widgets then it works fine. but then im using facebook or another app it will randomly soft boot.

i disabled bootanimation but i dont think that has any affect
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SKAm69:
The wifi reboots have been on all the up to date kernels: your stock kernel, scverhagen's, Wildchild's and Tbalden's stock kernel on his CM. Might be wrong but I think that the problem seems to be very deep inside the AOSP kernel code because the wifi reboots have been there even on Kornyone's CM9 Alphas. I also have the 3G Slide and it also does wifi reboots on his official CM7.2.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
hmmm strange... you may be right on how its could be deep in the kernel. Though most of those use the same driver. I went ahead up touched on all the updates available for this particular chip...

What sucks is that I dont think more updates will be done on it...

I guess someone may have to start working on a port to a newer kernel version... blarg... Maybe Braccoz can fix it... HINT HINT BRACCOZ! I'm not smart. -_-

Edit: Updates to try :)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] bit1:
Thanks for the update SilverL. 4/22 build with a clean wipe seems to break mobile data. Wiped fully and on initial boot no data. Wi-Fi working just fine though.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] _nobody:
thankful for the quick update. currently having some problems though, i'm still s-on so i flashed the kernel through fastboot before clean wipe and flash

when i goto settings, baseband says unknown. i also am not getting any signal
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] levp:
No signal here as well (voice and data), but random reboots seem to have disappeared.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
Apparently theres this ril header that was removed when I replaced my entire includes folder... maybe that's needed :\ (by maybe I meant it WAS needed lol)

Edit: uploaded and link changed. MD5 will be posted when I get home.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] bit1:
Been running the latest build for a few hours. Not one reboot and everything seems to be working smooth as Project Butter. Thanks for the quick update SilverL. I'll keep this as a daily at this level.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] butch87402:
Wow silver that was fast! Nice job man
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] cuiltheory:
I have to admit that I am still using the March build and love it. Everything works fine on it and decided not to change. The battery life in perfect. On standby over night - use %5 on battery. Can not ask for better one. Thanks.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] sofyanator:
VideoPlayback

Absolutely loving this ROM, my only hiccup is video playback. Installed MX player and the ARMv7 Codec. Still getting glitchy video on youtube, browser, and chrome?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
Those are to be expected since they're not going through mx but the default codecs and rendering stuff....
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ronbon:
Works great, probably best yet. Thanks!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
And weekly updates.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] anitgandhi:

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
Yes... it is... whoops?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] butch87402:
Just asking what does this mean?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
Its just the way AOKP does their versioning scheme.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] abe5:
Smooth, fast and stable; I love it. :)

Edit: All good. All good.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] cuiltheory:
3 times downloaded. First was bad download, second and third - I got error 7. I did clean wipe. Do not know what could be the problem. Will try to download again.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] cuiltheory:

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] slitheredxscars:
driving mode is gone from JB? or just this ROM?

Ive been on march rom for a long time, this rom is frkn great.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] cuiltheory:
The only difference I experienced is the phone get hot when using data. Did not had that with March rom. Beside that - everything is working fine. Thanks.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] risis78:
With the latest version (28-04) I had the problem of random reboot so I flashed the boot.img of the 23-04 rom to solve.

Now everything is ok but obviously I do not have the ability to use the wi-fi (my phone is S-ON).

How could I use this kernel on the 28-04 rom?

It would be enough to copy the lib / modules folder from the 23-04 rom to reactivate the wi-fi?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
So sorry I missed this. Just copying the bcmdhd.ko should be enough to require wifi.

Also... updates!

Edit: I forgot to put something back, so if there are screen issues, flash an alternative kernel.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
updates again
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] debianmain1:
Thanks SilverL!!!

I've been ROM swapping for the last couple of weeks & this really looks like a DD for me...Thanks!!!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ronbon:

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] bit1:
Anyone else having searching GPS issues on latest? Sometimes it seems my phone will just never get a lock on. A reboot sometimes helps. Any tips are appreciated and I'll include a logcat if that helps

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
Should be able to... also updates.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
Also the 5/27 release fixes the kernel problems in 5/26. I wish I had time to go through the commits to see which one caused problems... but 36 commits and.... I am looking into something else....
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
Minor updates. :)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] hapa8o8:
Looking more delicious every time xD

I'm contemplating on switching back to JB from CM9 ... but CM9 seems more snappier,doesn't it?:rolleyes:
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] abe5:
My phone's running on CM10.1 P-17 and... hats off to the developers; JB is becoming more and more stable, with excellent battery life.

(I switched from MikTouch to CM10.1 and perhaps I shall explore other JB ROMs later on)

So my advice is, if you feel like jumping back on JB, go ahead. You will not be disappointed... I...uh...hope. :highfive:
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
Which GAPPS is appropriate for this, I'm assuming the 20130301, but confused as to why the earlier one is also listed.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
I'm sure I saw somewhere that there were some... problems with the latest gapps when they first came out. So I listed it and figured to keep the older one as a failsafe. Since I've switched to the latest and there are updates that you will get after you flash it... so it should be fine to use now.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
Is AOKP more like the "stock" ROM on the Nexus 4 than is CM10.1? I get confused with all the versions, AOKP, AOSP, etc.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
Nope, AOSP (Android Open Source Project) is the stock ROM like on the nexus 4.

AOKP is the Android Open Kang Project which brings in more 'experimental' features to AOSP. I put experimental though they are stable, they are just more features, options. Like the battery bar, having the day on the clock as well as AM/PM.

Cyanogenmod, like AOKP brings features to AOSP though less than AOKP.

My explaining sucks but its all I got on short notice. :)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] risis78:
It's possible to re-download the Rom version of 12 or 18 May 2013?

I have a problem with the latest versions. When I install too many apps the phone slows down a lot and also the status bar disappears. Now I am using a version of April with the latest kernel and all is well, only that there is a bug of the ringtones and notifications that disappear and also the audio that randomly turns off and I have to reboot to restore it...

anyone still has the link to the old Roms?

Thanks in advance
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] icewewe:
Is the FFC working in Milestone 1? The camera app hard freezes when I try to switch to FFC. The only fix is to remove app data and reboot before I can use the back camera again. The bug list says this has been fixed in MR1 Build 6.

I had to replace the display ribbon cable in my phone, so I'm not sure if this is a ROM bug or whether I didn't reconnect the FFC properly. Could someone else tell me if their FFC is working on MR1? Thanks.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
Release today, build date 6/23. FFC works for me on that. Try it out and see.

Is anyone else having issues with battery life?

I'm seeing WiFi active all the time on the battery, and it's killing my phone way sooner that I was seeing with the PACMan ROMs.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ronbon:
Runs great!

Just wanted to say it runs great and input some little tweaks I ran that you can try if you wanna.

I ran the newest v6 Supercharger, but first, you've gotta patch the rom in order for the minifree settings to stick.

So I downloaded and ran autopatcher, which is easier to use than the pather script that zepplinrocks made, at least to me.

Here's a link to autopatchers forum, there's plenty of other neat patches you can do with it, if you wanna.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=38402165

When you are running the V6 patch via autopatcher, you can use the aosp or cm patch, but not generic. Once it's patched you flash the patch via recovery. It also generates a zip flash that lets you return to normal, if something goes wrong.

Then I ran the v6 starter kit, and only chose the zip align script to run, did not replace this roms busybox.

Here is the starter kit download page:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=18703418&postcount=5021

Then I ran the newest v6 supercharger, named black dog:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=42884332#post42884332

Follow the directions. I ran it using smanager. I did not alter the roms launcher settings when it asks if you want to make it rock hard, hard to kill, etc...

Anyway, this is the best my phone has ran in 6 months, which is great cuz I'm holding out for the Motorolla X or the next Nexus. SilverL's great work has enabled me to keep my device for the last year without throwing it against the wall.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
Do you know what kernel the pacman roms are using?

Are you doing full wipes between roms?

Are you restoring any apps or settings? If so what program are you using?

What recovery are you using?

Unrelated: Minor updates today.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] GoPadge:
Whatever's delivered?

I wipe data and cache.

I let Goggle Play restore my apps and then the missing apps are reinstalled by Titanium.

I'm on CW 5.0.2.7.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
Can you check something?

Go to Setting > Wifi > (menu button) > Advanced. What is the 'keep wifi on during sleep' option set to?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] GoPadge:
It was set to "Always".
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
Well... thats why. Change that to one of the other options and wifi will go off when sleeping. :)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] GoPadge:
Done and Thank you!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] abe5:
Repeat after me. I. Love. AOKP.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SilverL:
yea... it is.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Galileo:
Awesome rom, RAM usage is better than on Jelly Kang. Oh, btw, do you have any plans to add performance control on some near future?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] abe5:
I personally use this ROM with Trickster MOD, which is an awesome kernel tweaker. Try it.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Galileo:
I just downloaded it, nice, has some awesome advanced settings. This will help replace performance tools for now since I really hate setCPU and No-frills CPU nrever sets options at boot. Only thing missing is Z-ram, but the RAM management is good on this rom, so it's ok.

Thank's dude.

Not at all man. You were clear in the OP this isn't a daily driver yet but it's pretty smooth. Just trying to report bugs as I find them.
