lol, did you take a minute to look around the Original Dev section?

Perhaps take a few minutes to do so. There's a couple to choose from, AFAIK CM10 is the only one where video camera works.

Data/Internet Issues

Some of y'all who look at different posts and forums may notice that I am posting this issue in two different forums. Please bear with me for a sec. This is the same issue but on a different build so I thought it might be beneficial for others who are trying different roms. I started with the rom from solitarywarrior for my photon. Everything worked great with the exception of not being able to have data/internet. I was able to make calls and send/receive texts but I had no network connection or internet. It was suggested but others that I did not follow the steps correctly (which was true) so I was given guidance on going back to stock and starting over. This time I still had the same issues even after following the steps. Aarrrgh suggested trying this rom since he was aware of at least one tester with C Spire that it worked. So, I followed his advice and tried but again to no avail. I continually show that the network is Sprint, when I need to be on C Spire, (that may not matter but I don't know) and I continue to be unable to connect to the network and have internet. There was also another difference this time. I was unable to get gapps installed. In cwmrecovery it stated that it was successful install but none of the apps showed up. I would really like to be able to install a custom rom, especially cyanogenmod, but I have to figure out how to get everything installed correctly. Any assistance wold be greatly appreciated. I do not mind anyone asking questions in order to help figure this out. Again, I thank anyone and everyone who has helped and who helps this time.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] dpwhitty11:
Make sure you actually have data enabled.

And gapps now only include the market, not a bundle of apps like back in the day.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
I'm not sure what forum you are talking about, but you seem to know that crossposting is not a good idea... So please, don't do it. It really dilutes the community effort.

At any rate, what do you mean none of the apps showed up? Remember, gapps in 4.2 is different. If you have the Play Store and can add a Google account in "Accounts & Sync", then you have properly installed gapps.

For your service issue, I guess we'll have to dive into that a bit deeper. As I said previously, one of the testers was able to get this build working no problem with service, and is on CSpire. I'll try to get him to chime in, but in the meantime perhaps troubleshooting this on IRC would be a better idea...

Thanks.

Edit - dpwhitty11 beat me to it :p.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] alexwoellhaf:
So what does not work other than video cam?

Does 4g Work?

I am looking into some stuff
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
C'mon... can you read the first few posts of my thread at least?

Yes, 4g works. Signal bars don't, but it's difficult for me to test as I don't have LTE in my area... and probably won't for a long time.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] alexwoellhaf:
This is why i asked ima be in a 4g area tonight for a concert im going to. What do you want tested
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
I am already well aware that LTE signal bars are not working. Thanks.

As I said, LTE works fine. The signal bars do not render at all, and if you look at signal strength in about phone... it's very wrong.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] alexwoellhaf:
Why do you think that is?
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] kabaldan:
This parallel CM10.1 CDMA thread and builds start to be really counter productive.

It has been reported in the main CM10.1 thread that LTE signal bar actually works fine:

Please, if there's anything that should be merged to https://github.com/razrqcom-dev-team/android_device_motorola_xt897c or other razrqcom-dev-team repo, point it out or do a pull request.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] alexwoellhaf:
This is a community forum and we were just talking, No problems
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
He's right, I need to get my changes back to them...

Working on hashing out the details now. In the meantime, he's also right in that his CDMA CM10.1 nightly build does have working LTE signal bars - so if you want to, use his build. Mine will probably go the way of the dodo soon...
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] :
Well, I was having issues with the other cm rom I flashed so I posted my issues there. Then you suggested I try to flash this rom so I did. And since I am having the issues with this rom I posted the issues here.

I did not realize gapps was different. I am not a developer, a tech person, computer person, or anything that knows about this stuff other than to do it and it works. When it doesn't I know to ask here for help.

But I think my experience now has taught me it is best for me to stick with stock and stay away from custom roms.

I was actually talking about this "thread". Again sorry I don't know the appropriate language to use around this place. [[CDMA/LTE][WIP][4.1.2] CDMA builds of Skrilax_CZ's CM10

Don't worry about trying to solve the problem. It's not worth it. I am out of here.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Well, if it's any consolation we are here to help. If you want to try again, just let us know.

Good luck.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] spyderkoz:
Love the work... the only thing I can not find is the prl/ profile update. If this was already asked I am sorry. i read everything may have just missed it...
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
I thought I had this in the OP, but I might have forgot to put it in there...

Basically on any Android setup, if you flash an aftermarket ROM - you will lose the ability to do PRL updates. Take care of any of that (PRL, QPST, etc) on the stock ROM, then flash aftermarket.

This has always been true - take the original Evo, you needed to be on a Sense build in order to do PRL updates.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] spyderkoz:
ARRRGHH, thank you for the answer. I always had samsung every rom had it. But I do remember having the htc eris and it was this way... thank you for the reminder sir
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Hm, interesting... not sure if we can make that work on these Moto's or not.

At any rate, I will no longer build CM10.1 - the ROM. Folks should transition over to the CM10.1 Nightlies.

I have tested the MMS patches, and everything seems clean - so tonight when the new nightly is built, that build will have all of my fixes applied to it making this one obsolete :).

I will still work with the razr-qcom folks in case there are issues that need to be ironed out. I'm also still going to work on the kernels for CM, and I will still update Carbon. Thanks!
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] ShodiWarmic:
So we should be reporting all bugs on the other board, and this one should be locked? Or are we going to keep using this for CDMA specific bugs and the like?
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Correct, I will arrange the lock.

Thanks.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Clark Joseph Kent:
Closed as per OP, thanks.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] wintrxtrem:
I did a factory reset and no longer have the random clock crashes, but LTE still does not connect and the phone process still crashes once I make a phone call.

The good news is that I can force roaming now by selecting the 800mhz radio band in phone settings (*#*#4636#*#*), but the phone network needs to be set to automatic for this to work. PRL 56013 allows 3G vzw roaming too, btw.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Phone crashes when you make a phone call?

I certainly cannot recreate this...

Please try this - flash CM10.1, factory wipe, and DO NOT CHANGE ANYTHING. Try placing a phone call.

Unfortunately I cannot test LTE. I need to do a scrub of build.prop I think, and there's some other things that are likely missing (like the carrier recognition is not working right now).
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] wintrxtrem:
Well I flashed cm10.1 w/o gapps and factory reset afterwards and now calls work without phone process crashing.. Odd that I was doing it vice versa, and installing gapps, and having problems, but thank you.

LTE still doesn't work.. doesn't look like it's connecting to EHRPD, which could be related. All I get is Rev A, and I know EHRPD is live around here. I still have the high pitched sound during phone calls :( .. I wasn't the only one to report that, though.

Force roaming still works. The good news is netflix now works, where it didn't with CM10.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Well I forgot to say flash gapps... Sorry. You should flash gapps then factory wipe (at least that's what I do).

Either way, I see what you mean about Rev.A - I used to get EHRPD as well before. Like I said, I need to do a scrub of the build.prop. This is the first release of 10.1 after all - thank you for the reports, I will keep everyone posted on my progress.

I already noticed I missed the voicemail overlay as well!! Next build will be better :)
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] gabestover:
It's already my daily driver - so much better than the JB leak, imo.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Yea, there are a lot little additions that are really nice in 10.1/4.2...

Working on cooking up something new soon, with a clean tree for xt897c... The moto devs are trying to keep everything together, which will be freakin schweet!!
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] solitarywarrior1:
Mind me taking a look at your repo and seeing if I can't help with the LTE?

Sent from my Photon Q
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Aaargh!:
"Please try this - flash CM10.1, factory wipe, and DO NOT CHANGE ANYTHING. Try placing a phone call"

Just curious why the factory wipe after flashing the rom. On other phones and when I did a flash on this phone I factory wipe first, then flash the rom. Am I missing something or just reading too much into this? Thank
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Have at it buddy. Hop on IRC if you want to chat - like I said before, a scrubbin of build.prop is needed.

Factory wipe before or after, I don't think this matters. So long as you do factory wipe :good:
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
FYI guys latest build works with eHRPD... I'm hoping it works with LTE can you please report back wintrxtrem or whoever else can test LTE?

Also guys if you could retest MMS on the latest build. Inbound and outbound... Thanks!

I am still working on BT, yes it is still dead.... If you reboot it behaves differently, but still fails to come up.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Skrilax_CZ:
The "red bars" probably is that arrrghhh made an engineering build instead of userdebug build.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Haha, yes we just had this discussion on IRC.

Hopefully this resolves the 'red bar' issue. It should be a bit smoother userdebug as well instead of engineering.

I'm still trying to bisect BT - on the GSM only build of 10.1, BT does work. Not sure what I'm missing at this point, but I will keep at it! Let me know if you guys find anything.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] nwo122383:
I am now running the latest build. I have no lights for the keyboard. It does not light at all also no light for caps lock or shift appear when pressing those buttons. Also the layout seems to be the same as the jellybean soak then what it was on the previous build of cm10.1 now instead of the semicolon and the colon I get these stupid characters and I never use them if that can be changed back to what it was in the build from yesterday that would be awesome.

At first I was still getting the redbar but I changed a few options under the developer options so not sure if that got rid of it or it got rid of itself.

Edit the redbar appears to show up if you press and hold on the notification bar. Also when you drag your finger to change brightness. So it is still there but only seems to appear under those circumstances

So far mms does not seem to be working on its own I will try a few things and see what happens

The initial lag that was present in the last build seems gone. Even while it was updating the apps like previously it was snappy and I didn't notice the lag so that's a plus.

---------- Post added at 02:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:45 PM ----------

Update

The brightness does not seem to change at all. I tried to go under system settings display brightness and then change the brightness it just stays at the same brightness and if you disable the brightness slider option then the redbar does not appear when pressing the notification bar. Seems like it has something to do with that. Also might be the reason the keyboard does not light
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
I started running a build last night, which should hopefully disable the red bar thing... (I haven't posted it yet, I will shortly if it's successful).

As for the rest of the issues, whew! Thanks for the report, I will try and bisect all of that stuff. Sounds like I am missing some overlays for the keyboard!
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] nwo122383:
Cool sounds good the brightness issue is with both the keyboard and the screen. The screen brightness does not change when moving the slider
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
OK guys, posting a new build which fixes BT and the red bar crap - it's now a userdebug instead of engineering build... I didn't change anything else, haha.

At any rate, since I have now tested the build from last night successful, I can start looking at these brightness issues. Thanks!!
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] hfase:
4g works. MMS Works. (Using last nights build (28th))

Seems like the screen dimer is not though.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Yeehaw!!! Thanks for the report. Working on the screen/keyboard backlight issue. Sounds like I am missing some liblights commits...
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] hfase:
No problem at all! Thank you. I guess I was wrong SMS works but not MMS

So far its awesome! Lotta features I have been missing.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Aw, crap on MMS. Sprint is always finnicky with MMS. Do you get any errors? Have you tried sending and receiving?

Thanks again, I can't really test MMS.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] hfase:
Sent and received a few SMS successfully. Only tried sending MMS though, it just keeps saying "sending" I will try receiving one too later though. When I get back home I could logcat too if you want.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] wintrxtrem:
Okay, I just sobered up and got near some wifi. LTE works! Looks like we're back to a broken signal status when LTE is connected, though.

Haven't tested BT yet and keyboard lights are out as I type this. Keep up the good work, guys:)
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] dpwhitty11:
The amount of progress that we have now on CM is awesome! I can't wait until most of the bugs here are ironed out. This phone is finally getting the attention and development it deserves.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Hm, broken signal status... Interesting. I assume this was status quo from CM10?

BT should work, but keyboard lights/screen light are not fixed yet. I have the patches and am working on a new build for that now.

Indeed - nadbalak and Skrilax_CZ have done a great job, and I have been learning a lot about how the build and version control process works :)
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] wintrxtrem:
The first CM10 builds with LTE had a broken signal status, but at some point it was fixed. BT audio seems to work fine with Apollo music player, but calls crash com.phone when making with my BT headset.

The built-in LTE toggle switches the radio between CDMA/EvDo and LTE/CDMA, btw. Pretty cool, though I don't know if there's any difference between LTE/CDMA EvDo and LTE/CDMA or if that would be preferable. Is this by your design or just how CM defaults and we got lucky that it works?
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
I'm going to go with luck, as I haven't done anything intentional in regards to LTE. I've done my best to set the device up properly as an LTE/CDMA device, and perhaps there have been some framework improvements on the CM side.

I'll look into the signal bar issue, thanks again for reporting it. Will note it on the buglist so I don't lose track of it!
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
OK, keyboard lights work and brightness now works.

I am now going to look at the service stuff, because it says "Roaming Indicator Off" instead of "Sprint".

Also, the LTE signal bars - solitarywarrior1 said he fixed that in CM10, as wintrxtrem indicated - so I should be able to knock that one out pretty easily too.

It's lookin pretty good so far folks!!
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Sprint is now shown for the carrier (and I hope others are displayed correctly now as well?)

Let me know about the LTE signal bars, but I don't think I've quite licked that yet.

MMS will be another interesting one... both of these things I cannot test!
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] nwo122383:
I can certainly test out mms for ya
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Hm, I just tested a call on speakerphone and it was AWFUL.

I am going to go back to a previous build - I don't know if it was me not testing it properly or what, but last time I tested speakerphone it seemed OK.

It is like the mics are not being properly utilized.... I know there's at least a dualmic setup, and I do not think it is being properly used.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] wintrxtrem:
I did a clean install and have the same speakerphone problem, along with high pitch during earpiece calls. BT calls now work without a hiccup.

LTE status signal still broken, and one note on the built-in LTE toggle: it switches the radio between CDMA/EvDo Auto and LTE/CDMA. The problem is that LTE doesn't work on the LTE/CDMA setting, but it does work on the LTE/CDMA/EvDo setting. If there's any way to point the toggle to that setting rather than LTE/CDMA it would work properly. Not a big deal, but it'd be nice if it worked properly.

My GPS is still broken. Is it working for anyone else?
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
I can't comment about the LTE/CDMA thing, kind of an "would be nice to have" rather than a necessity. LTE signal status would be nice too, hopefully that is easily resolved.

As for the speakerphone, I'm still kind of baffled by that - but I haven't triaged it properly yet... I still have not experienced any whining during a regular earpiece call.

GPS works great here - what ROM were you on before? Some of the GSM guys said you should be on stock JB before flashing to this... I was on CM10 before I flashed 10.1.

Edit - it seems I forgot the voicemail fix in the latest build... sorry about that guys. I'll try and fix something else so I'm not just releasing another build to only fix voicemail, haha!
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] wintrxtrem:
Does anyone have a flashable zip of stock rooted JB?
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
AFAIK the soak test is the only official JB release - which is not very official.

Were you on stock ICS before? Just strange that you have issues with GPS and I do not...

I'll try and figure out what Skrilax did to fix his (he had the same issue on 10.1, no GPS) -
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] dwaynet89:
Just tried using GPS and it works fine for me. I'm running the latest build.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] KyleJDavison:
I don't have gps either. I came from ICS stock to CM10 (never had working GPS) to 10.1 - user debug 3.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Please flash the JB soak test, then flash back to CM10.1.

I will add this as a caveat for anyone who doesn't have functional GPS. I'm not sure why it works for some and not for others...

I was on stock ICS, then CM10, then many revisions of 10.1... and GPS always worked for me.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] sk8rguy05:
Thank youuuuu!!!!!

Hi first off i just want to say thank you for all the hard work for getting this rom made. I installed this fresh. I wiped everything then installed using twrp recovery. And ive had absolutely no problems. my gps works perfectly, my lte is working great. It did take a minute for it to come on when first booted up after installing. I had to use wifi to login with my google account, then after bout 30seconds it came right on and started working instantly. so 3g, lte, and gps work. not sure bout bt cus i never use bt. and no red boxes that other people have been experiencing, but mms still not working. So again good job on this rom and keep up the good work. Looking forward to next update.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] hfase:
For anybody wondering why "{} Developer Tools" is missing from the menu on the "userdebug" builds it is hidden in android 4.2+...

To enable Developer Tools (ADB);

Goto settings>about-phone

Scroll to "build number" at the bottom, tap "build number" 7 times.

You should now see a toast notification saying something like "You are now a developer"
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Yea, on the changelog I fixed the red box crap.

MMS will be fun... I have a feeling we'll have to use a modified file, as AOSP and Sprint's stupid MMS handling are not exactly compatible.

Shhhhh it was supposed to be a secret :p

I thought that was pretty entertaining, but it seriously is a good way to keep people out of dev tools that don't need to be in that menu...
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
OK, found an interesting overlay which might help with MMS...

I'm also putting the voicemail fix back in, as well as some additional tweaks to the roaming options :)

Building now.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] gabestover:
Could something be figured out from Sprint's Galaxy Nexus? There's a cm10.1 kang here - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1774324

Or perhaps stock 4.2.1? - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2051757 ?

For what it's worth, I can receive mms using Go SMS, but still can't send, it seems. MMS's say they send in gosms, but aren't ever received.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] hfase:
I normally use EasyTether to tether to my desktop and ADB to copy stuff so I had to figure that out. :/

Could not get EasyTether to work even with it enabled though. (Doubt that has anything to do with your build though...)

Besides, the built-in tethering I see works better than ET anyway.. :cool: (I can tether and use ADB at the same time! WOOHO!!) :good:
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
See my last post, I think I found something good. Thanks for the links too :cool:

I was going to say... why even screw with that crap, use the built-in tethering lol.

Saw that after I posted - awesome! will flash as soon as it's built & up - thank you!
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
No worries...

I just tested the build, my roaming options find from d2spr proved fruitful :good:

I will need someone to test MMS again... please let me know!! There also might be a setting for MMS now... I'm trying to find it, lol. Something about content disposition?
