I forgot to throw it up on goo I'll do it when I get home
[myTouch 4G Android Development] rojovilla:
albinoman887, even though I've retired this device as well as my Sensation, I'm glad to see that you and the team have made this ROM possible. My Glacier will have 4.3 before my S3!!!

And I also want to give you kudos for picking up where Bruce left off on the Sensation. I've been following that thread since you started it....Thanks a ton, dude! GOOD STUFF :D
[myTouch 4G Android Development] albinoman887:
Thanks!

oh and the torch bug....... i know how to fix that i just overlooked it, sorry i'll fix it now and get the build up sometime tonight. its just a permissions issue in the ramdisk for the sysfs file that controls the flashlight :P chown 0660 to chown 0666 lol
[myTouch 4G Android Development] :
Frick dude, with that I would call this a DAILY!

Nice on!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] albinoman887:
new build posted, torch FC should be fixed now
[myTouch 4G Android Development] wizbo27:
When I downloaded 0824 from goo app it said md5 sum invalid then started to redownload it
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jinxmeistr:
My download was fine..you may have to just try again?

Torch now works! Thanks so much...:)
[myTouch 4G Android Development] :
is this rom good enough for a daily driver? (for my father)
[myTouch 4G Android Development] IndianKarmas:
I think might be few more weeks before it is stable enough.

U can go with albionman's 4.2.2 or go with viper 2.5 ics which is very stable also. Personally I like sense so viper
[myTouch 4G Android Development] N_otori0us_:
Use gingerbread if you want stable.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] showerhead88:
gallery force closes, and reboots phone when opened bug still present on latest build. hope this gets fixed soon

frontcam and torch work now though!

[myTouch 4G Android Development] albinoman887:
clear data and cache for gallery....
[myTouch 4G Android Development] :
It's so close. There are still head phone heat up problems. That's the only problem in my mind.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] N_otori0us_:
Also a there the cell phone signal drop problem which I've never experienced but lots of people say.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] :
Oh, I get that one. If someone calls me and I don't pick up, my signal gets dropped until I reboot my phone. Weird thing is that if they leave a voicemail, my signal comes back. So odd! lol
[myTouch 4G Android Development] tibi73:
help

where can I find viper 2.5 ics for glacier? thanks
[myTouch 4G Android Development] albinoman887:
even with the very latest build?

and you can repeat this process of missing a call then losing service til a restart? and the voicemail thing. this is the closest i've seen anyone get to a re-producible procedure. it should help narrow it down. but i did add an extra build prop setting int he most recent build....

and the headphone heat up issue guys....just deal with it lol. the phone doesnt blow up does it? :P
[myTouch 4G Android Development] IndianKarmas:
You won't find it officially....try searching on google...I did the same :)
[myTouch 4G Android Development] toci1980:
Yeap, and I've got that problem with missed call, but only first time when it happend. After restart I don't have it, but it's happening!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] albinoman887:
yeah, my mom (the owner of the phone) complains about this issue a lot. we just never knew exactly what triggers it. So call it, and dont answer and dont leave a voicemail and service drops? good now i can reproduce the bug :)
[myTouch 4G Android Development] toci1980:
Exactly that!!!!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] albinoman887:
ok. i have limited access to the device but i'll try and figure it out...it might be a build.prop setting honestly so if you guys feel like playing go for it. build.prop settings wont break anything. just remember to set the permissions to 644 or read/write,read,read if its set to executable the phone will boot to a black screen
[myTouch 4G Android Development] toci1980:
I would like to play but don't know nothing about "playing on android" :D

This problem, also, I had and on JB 4.2!!!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] albinoman887:
yeah i know...like i said my mom has had it for awhile. i just didnt knwo how to reproduce it so it was hard to fix. i would just have to wait

I've moved some apps on SD card with Link2SD, but every time when I connect phone and PC and enable copy/paste files from SD, after disconected USB, icons of apps ( which has been moved on SD) disappeared from homescreen!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jaibar:
You sure you're posting in the right thread??

Why don't you try posting at link2sd thread?

Now, about your problem- did you *move* apps to sd or *linked* them to ext partition? Please provide me info if you want help, but honestly I think this has nothing to do with rom thread so don't expect more than limited support...

[myTouch 4G Android Development] toci1980:
I've "MOVE" apps! Thank's on answ. I will overpass in right thread after this (but you can leav answer here for next "generation" ;) )!!!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jaibar:
For the next generation's sake, when you move apps to sd, some will stop working at all- widgets won't work, the app itself won't work temporarily while you're usb mounted...

So, although you can use link2sd to move apps, it has a much better for v linking apps, thus keeping them fully functional as long as the sd card is mounted.

The only downside of linking of that you need to partition the sd card beforehand.

Now, the glacier mt4g has quite enough space for apps, so, are you sure this type of solution is really needed?

I'm starting to get minor hiccups and force closes every now and then due to unknown reasons. Moreover, my screen off animation has dissipated completely for no particular reason. I've been running the latest build for a couple of days now, so I'm assuming that it's either the bleeding edge ROM, or my brand new 16 gig micro SD.

Try doing a fstrim download lagfix from the market.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jinxmeistr:
I have seen a few things - like the phone will slow down or freeze and so, I have to kill apps with my ES task manager(which I know has other consequences) but better than taking the battery out. :( I don't know if its the ROM itself or any app - but I don't think it has to do with the SD card. Anyway its still a good driver so I'm keeping the latest version of this ROM :)
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Silencer96:
Moreover, the phone's mic infallibly stops working when switching from the speaker phone to the other speaker mid-way through calls and vice-versa; so much so that the person on the other end can't even make out what I'm saying anymore. Is there any way to rectify this?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] misquia:
There was a trackpad wake .zip file in CM 10.1 in the other thread, I was wondering if there was a zip made to have trackpad wake for CM 10.2 (4.3)?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] tuxkamen:
That would _most likely_ be the same .zip, unless the location of the manifests that it changes has moved (which seems unlikely). You could always give it a try and see what happens!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] :
Interesting... I used that fix in conjunction with a headphone overheating fix someone recommended to me. I know diddly squat about it all but I wonder if the headphone heat up fix would work, too...
[myTouch 4G Android Development] N_otori0us_:
The one in the resource bible in the third post should work...

---------- Post added at 03:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:25 PM ----------

No you cannot flash that kernel without making a few changes in the ramdisk. You want me to mess around with it then upload it to test?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] :
That would be cool, it could potentially solve the headphone heat up issue, but I'm not sure when I'd be able to get around to test it.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] N_otori0us_:
No, it won't "solve" the problem, but it is a temporary fix for those who cannot help :P

And I'll pm you in a couple hours.

---------- Post added at 04:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:44 PM ----------

Ok I've Made them. But I'm not sure if they work or not because I haven't tested it. If it's OK with albinoman887 I'll post it here too, it because I've made a backup of the flash able zip too.

Or you can pm me :p
[myTouch 4G Android Development] N_otori0us_:
Well it works according to some people. But I still encourage people to try and help fix it if they know how to.

[myTouch 4G Android Development] ProfUgo55:
My 2¢

The 8/24 build is my current daily.

First, many thanks to Albinoman for a fantastic, steady rom.

Current issues I've noticed with the 8/24 build:

- Quick Settings panel does not work.

- Not sure whether wi-fi is picking up 5 GHz bands. (In Advanced Wifi settings, the frequency band selection will "stick" for "Auto" or "2.4 GHz only" but not for "5 GHz only" (see this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2421545).

- Camera app ("Focal"), when launched, flickers green and crashes. Gallery seems OK. Other camera apps (Camera ICS and Vignette) work fine, both front & rear cameras.

- The phone slows down occasionally--repeated clearing of memory (by GO Task Manager) doesn't solve the problem entirely. After a reboot it is fine.

- 4EXT seems to lose backups -- not sure if that is the ROM or 4EXT, though.

The 9/6 build also wouldn't allow me to mount my SD card, so I haven't evaluated it yet.

Again, thanks to Albinoman for all the sweat equity in this ROM.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] ProfUgo55:
One other issue I didn't mention: occasional screen image inversions. When waking phone from display sleep, or when the display shuts down during a call because of the proximity sensor, the screen will come back with the image flipped vertically. Just the image: the touch locations remain what they were, but the image is flipped. Turning the screen off and back on--either by toggling the power switch or, during a call, bringing the phone back close to your face and pulling it away again--usually fixes it.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] albinoman887:
sorry guys been busy, and sleepy :) I'll try and get a new build up in the next day or so.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] darkgiant:
Hey Albinoman!

First off, thanks a lot for all these ROMs! You really saved me from buying another phone!! :)

I had a question, I obviously know that you create these ROMs and I fully respect that, but I wanted to here from you, comparing both the 4.2.2 ROM and this 4.3 ROM, which one would be more stable for using as a Daily Driver?

I recently installed the September 6th update for 4.2.2 and now ran into a problem with the screen brightness, and was hoping that was not the last ever update for that ROM.

Thanks a lot for your work man.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] N_otori0us_:
4.2.2 is more stable since new bugs are being found and squashed in 4.3
[myTouch 4G Android Development] hview:
Great job.

Q. I know that's stupid question to ask why this ROM and evervolv ROM have same amount of ram that is 601mb.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] N_otori0us_:
Because it's the same phone? lol? Its probably because EverVolv is the base for pretty much all roms; Elginsk8r is keeping our device alive with his kernel :)
[myTouch 4G Android Development] IndianKarmas:
Hi Albionman,

I moved over to N4, and found that the screen tearing is common on JSS builds, and I noticed the 8/24 build had JSS build as well, there are few patches I have seen on N4 threads.

just wanted to bring to your attention so maybe you would be able to help out with the screen tearing JSS issue http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2368548

Screen lighting up when off

Okay, I haven't seen anyone mention this, but my Glacier's screen lights up periodically when the screen is off....never had a device do that before. Can anyone else confirm this is happening to their device? I'm running the latest build (9/17), but this was happening on the previous builds. Thanks in advance!

Thats the screen flicker bug. Looks like you've got infected lol.

No one said it was fixed. -__-. That bug is going to be there forever until people help fix it. So please don't keep posting that, only post it if it is fixed and you are confirming it :P
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Jaxas:
Hopefully I just did something wrong, but...

This appears to be the closest ROM to perfect that I've found, and it's 4.3 to boot!

I have one problem which makes it unuseable, however...

For some reason, when headphones are plugged in, the battery life drops from ~8hrs to just under 1hr.

Unlike other ROMs I've used, the phone doesn't heat up at all - the battery drains even faster though, in spite of that.

Everything else works flawlessly, but since I use my phone as my main music device, this is kind of a deal-breaker...

When I installed it, I:

- Used ClockWorkMod

- Wiped Data/Factory Restore

- Wiped Cache Partition

- Wiped Dalvik Cache

- Flashed current ROM build (cm-10.2-20130917-Albinoman887-glacier.zip)

- Flashed GAPPS

If anyone has any way to fix that it would be great, thanks!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] N_otori0us_:
Well thts something new -_- lol.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Jaxas:
Does this ROM normally have the headphone overheat bug/similar? I'm planning on Wiping -> ReInstalling it again when I get home to see if that helps, so I'll let you know how that goes.

----- EDIT -----

By the way, just in case it's relevant (though I doubt it is) I'm using ClockworkMod 5.0.2.0
[myTouch 4G Android Development] N_otori0us_:
Yes pretty much every jellybeans rom has the headset heatup bug.

Lol I tell that to at least one person and day.

---------- Post added at 11:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:32 AM ----------

There is a fix by the way, but it makes the rom less stable.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Jaxas:
Yeah, I was hoping that it might be different than the past ROMs since the phone didn't actually heat up and only drained the battery, but I guess not.

Thanks for the help, and great ROM!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] N_otori0us_:
Tip. Press the thanks button if someone helped you.

Also I said before that there is a fix if you really like this rom.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] ohshootrawr:
What is the fix? I installed a few 4.3 roms on my friends phone and aside from the signal dropping issue, it was by far the biggest problem. And also, how much does it affect stability? I had to move her back to sense mostly because of the battery drain while listening to music.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] ibuddler:
To sum it up, all the 4.3 roms will have 1. Signal drop 2. Headset heat up 3. Screen flicker. All the 4.2 4.1 4.0 roms if using 3.0.68 and up kernel will have issue 2 and 3. If using 3.0 and up kernel will have issue 3. If you use 2.6 kernel, then you won't get any problem but you may have some camera issues. These problems are not likely to be fixed. Either bear with them or downgrade to 4.0 or buy a new phone.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] N_otori0us_:
In the general section find my thread. In the 3rd post flash the modded kernel. It will be a little I stable though with random reboots.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] tuxkamen:
Just to note: I didn't have screen flicker on two different myTouch 4Gs when I was using Albinoman's 4.2.2 ROM. The signal drop issue might be software-related but I believe that the flicker must have some sort of hardware involvement.

I can't test the signal drop issue any more since I have a new phone, but I was able to get rid of it on my old phones...so I would be interested in seeing if someone could test the following:

1) Call the phone, do not answer and watch the signal.

2) If the signal drops for more than a minute after the call ends, flip airplane on and off to get it back.

3) Plug the phone into the computer and make sure USB debugging is active.

4) Call the phone, do not answer and watch the signal.

5) If the signal drops for more than a minute after the call ends, flip airplane on and off to get it back.

6) Call the phone, do not answer and watch the signal.

7) If the signal still drops after the call ends, reboot the phone, leaving it plugged into USB.

8) Call the phone, do not answer and watch the signal.

I don't have a clear end case for this test, but I found that within a few attempts of calling the phone and not picking it up while it was plugged in, the signal would come back within a couple of seconds after dropping. After that it would not drop for any appreciable time at all. This behavior would persist even if the phone was then unplugged from the computer.

Looking at the logcats for this (on a fresh load) I found some old errors relating to connection status and a really bad SIGSEGV, but I don't have those logs any more and it wasn't exactly a clean log. It seemed to me that the issue was some sort of state initialization problem that can be bulled through, though. Maybe one of you could try this if you're still experiencing the problem.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] N_otori0us_:
I also remember someone saying that if you let it go to voicemail the signal cones back
[myTouch 4G Android Development] tuxkamen:
Voicemail doesn't have any obvious effect--that as one of the things I tried to test first, and it definitely dropped when going to voicemail.

EDIT: To make that clear, I tried hanging it up during the announcement and after leaving a test message, multiple times. Going to voicemail did not make the signal return.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] albinoman887:
dont recomend old kernels. first of all the version number is a really bad indocator of what version it is. thats just the linux version. it means nothing to us. i could have it be on 3.0.40 and still have all the updates. the linux updates ar minimal since we arent on a x86 chip. using an older kernel is just stupid, no offense.
