Keep the peace <3

To clarify: I'm certain that KenpoAP was referring to this:

"It will set up Super CID on your device allowing you to flash any carriers rom (not just tmobile). Giving you more freedom with your choice of software. The software still needs to be device specific to the glacier for compatability reasons though. Like vodafone glacier roms etc."

Please KenpoAP the reason people are frustrated with you is that you did not actually read what was posted. It clearly states that SOFTWARE STILL NEEDS TO BE DEVICE SPECIFIC. As far as i'm aware the Desire HD and Glacier are NOT the same phone. Please do research before you post a question like this. Chances are if you can't find a result confirming your question (especially about a device as popular as the mytouch 4g) then you probably can't do it. To the other guys -- Try to be nice to us newbs, even if we're annoying and ask stupid questions sometimes. I know that it can be frustrating trying to get to real information with posers posting complete bull**** but someday that poser might morph in to a beautiful butterfly..... errrm I mean developer......... that will contribute to the community. I am constantly surprised by how nasty people can be on forums (these aren't even that bad) half the time the yelling and screaming can be replaced with a more constructive means of behaviour modification. (not answering a question or answering by explaining why you will not answer the question in a polite manner work better and ward off the flame wars) haha then again I've only posted twice so I should probably STFU GTFO :D happy 2.3 day everyone.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] borodin1:
A quick question, did anyone see degradation on Gps sensitivity on this rom? I think I may have a faulty device as I can't hang on to gps signal for nothing. Have yet to revert to stock and see butter wanted to check first.

Thanks!

Now, thats the way to answer!!! Thank you!!!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] KenpoAP:
People like me become your supervisors by asking and being polite! Learning and passing on the information to people like you who hate to pass whats being learn during their journeys! That's why people like you hate people like! Sorry for being your future supervisor and I'll be glad to pass on to you what I learn in the process.

Back on topic and stfu if not :D
[myTouch 4G Android Development] borodin1:
So I restored my back-up with stock rom/OC kernel and my GPS found me pretty quick and fairly accurate, restored CM - again found me quick and accurate.... I guess I'll see what happens tomorrow.

If anyone has anything to share regarding GPS performance - please do.

Thanks!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] snazzymasta:
I'm not having GPS lock problems but is anyone else seeing wifi connections constantly dropping? Obvious that's what mine is doing. Maybe I should also try a fresh install...
[myTouch 4G Android Development] KenpoAP:
Yes, me imagino! Nice! Dont call me, i'll call you!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Phateless:
Yes! Major WiFi stability issues. Uber obnoxious.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] snazzymasta:
Are you using any different kernels on top? I don't want to OC for battery life but I was thinking of trying the Gorilla and returning it to stock clocks, re-enabling wifi and seeing if that works better.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] otto2009:
To solve your GPS problem, you might have to look at your APN settings, and check whats in in the APN Type section. You should have "default,supl,admin,dun" without the quotes. Hope this will solve your problem.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] larryg2k3:
Where do I find the APN settings?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Mrdaviso:
Settings/wireless & networks/mobile networks/access point names
[myTouch 4G Android Development] borodin1:
Thanks for the advice but... what do apns have to do with GPS?

[myTouch 4G Android Development] borodin1:
What are we looking at here that we did not know before?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] dustrho:
Yeah, that's the same build as what was originally offered for the MT4G, so I too don't see what's so special about it. That says "RC" in the build name which means it's a release candidate, not the official "DS" release.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Phateless:
I thought this Alpha was all we had? Where do we download the RC? I'll root this sombitch tonight.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] dustrho:
There currently is no RC version available at this time, as we don't have a developer working on a CM RC ROM for the MT4G.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Phateless:
So what's up with the pic then?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] persiansown:
RC0 < Alpha 1.

Thats an old pic (I took it ;))

Argh! :p

Sense is bugging me and my remorse period ended the other day. Ironically, I found TWO great deals on N1s just yesterday. oops.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] esincho:
If wanna go backwards that's on u, I'm not a fan of sense, but its just a matter of time. I own a n1, this phone is better, period
[myTouch 4G Android Development] kitsunisan:
Wouldn't exactly call the Nexus a step backwards, its still a beast. But if anyone has a problem with sense, download Adw or launcherpro from the market, both give you a great stock feel.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] pablo1215:
Lesson I learned a while back was never buy a phone banking on development, buy it for the the phone it is when you buy it first. Ive owned the blackberry 8320, iphone 2g, g1, mytouch 3g, hero, iphone 3GS, nexus, vibrant, and now mt4g and each time I felt I was getting an over all better device than the previous. Sure I hoped the community would help make the phone way better just as Im anxiously awaiting cm6 for the mt4g but even then over all I gave it a little more than my vibrant or nexus so it won. To each his/her own though because if all you love is the customization and dev community then the nexus is king but hardware wise the vibrant and mt4g are both superior. Its only a matter of time because cm6 or something like it will be available for the mt4g but I still am debating on the Nexus S. Im only struggling with this because its not much of an upgrade to the mt4g physically. Mt4g wins in ram, but processor is about even but I will give the nexus s the edge because of the gpu, on board memory the nexus wins but also loses because of the lack of sd slot, the camera and video capabilities on the samsung devices are definitely a notch above htc even media playback. Also it lacks hspa+ but lets face it I average maybe 4-7mbps on my mt4g and on the vibrant I averaged about the same so until the network is able to provide stable speeds above 7.2mbps then its not really much of an advantage and Im not missing much. I guess I may just have to go play with one on december 16th and see if I like it enough. Most likely I will.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] pablo1215:
The nexus was the best android phone for the longest amount of time but its downfall now is the processor (more the gpu but still) the lack of space on the device especially for large apps or people with a ton of apps. Sure there are ways around this with apps2sd and all but why when newer phones have plenty of room. Its screen isnt top of the line anymore especially compared to samsungs. The build is still top notch it just isnt the king anymore.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] esincho:
There it is. I love my nexus. This phone hardware is just better
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Phateless:
I don't consider it going backwards. I'm giving up some RAM, but it's the same processor and I keep so few apps on the phone that I really couldn't care less about the interal storage.

Clean Android MORE than makes up for the sacrifices in my book.

I thought they had the exact same processor? I guess the MT4G has better graphics? What else?

I agree that the MT4G is better hardware and I LOVE the physical build quality, the weight, the metal back, the physical buttons... really really like the device, just Sense irritates me in so many little ways, lol.

EDIT - just realized the MT4G has the newer generation processor. What are the differences?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] pablo1215:
Mainly its the GPU that's on the new processor its supposed to be a lot better for games and general graphics processing. The ram makes the most difference to me but with a mytouch 4g running at 1.4ghz and the extra ram its no contest the nexus gets smoked. I loved my nexus and my friend has it now so we compare a lot side by side. I know benchmark apps shouldnt be solely what you use to determine which is faster or not but if you use quadrant, linpack, and neocore you will see the difference in the two. Even a stock mt4g and a nexus on cm6 you still see the difference especially in neocore (thats the gpu difference)
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Phateless:
I see. Yeah the speed is the main reason I wanted this phone, especially coming from a MT3G. Is the Nexus One slow/laggy by comparison, or just not as retardedly fast as the MT4G?

I always keep my machines super lean in terms of apps and running processes so I doubt I'd have any trouble with an N1.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] joeyklatzko:
If I'm not mistaken the CPU is also more battery efficient at 45nm. With a little hacking the MyTouch is definitely a superior device, although the N1 is still better than most Android devices out.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] pablo1215:
You would probably be satisfied with a nexus. It's far from slow by any means. Im very "aggressive" with my phones (tons of apps like over 200). I have all 7 screens used with a ton of widgets and the mt4g doesnt skip a beat. Well very seldomly lol. The nexus would have some lags with me often and the battery life wasnt so great for me at least. Pros for the mt4g processor/gpu, ram, on board memory, front facing cam, hspa+, physical buttons not capacitive. Pros for nexus, roms roms roms really thats all I can think of. Just depends on the deal you can get on a nexus but realize its best days are behind it. Thats my issue now with my mt4g and the nexus S. Just dont know if its enough for me to get it.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Phateless:
I see. Yeah the hspa+ is a pretty big selling point, but beyond that I'd be perfectly content with an N1.

Ironically, the day after my remorse period ended I found two clean N1s for $250 each. Doh!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] pablo1215:
Right now the speed difference isnt HUGE even with hspa+. Because HSPA+ is boosting the speed on existing 3g phones like the nexus its not much difference RIGHT NOW. The network speed for the most part doesnt average above 7.2mbps until it does you will see pretty close results in speed on both phones. I may get 6mbps and my friend gets about 5 its not as often that I get 8-9 mbps but it does happen. Next year it will be a bigger deal when the speeds are really reaching well over 15-20mbps then the existing "4g" phones the g2 and mt4g will be maxed out at 14.4mbps. So I can see the argument for both getting the nexus or not even with hspa+.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] esincho:
Not the same processor bro, second gen, and it shows. This thing out the box was as fast as my super tweaked nexus. Not knocking it.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Phateless:
Keep going, you're making me feel better about my purchase! :D

Ha ha ha, stick it out bro. We got some great devs coming to this phone

I know, I know... just the Vibrant has been out forever and they still don't have working CM6. Once I have Vanilla Froyo on here I'll be in heaven with this thing!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] pablo1215:
HAHA a good analogy would be you just drafted Lebron James instead of Kobe Bryant. While Kobe has won rings and is still among the best and was the best in the league for a period of time, Lebron is already better and has all the upside still since he is so much younger with more physical gifts lol.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] pablo1215:
The vibrant has one thing not going for it in the cm6 community its not HTC. I have high hopes this will get cm6 within less time than the vibrant. Fingers crossed.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Phateless:
Lol @ labron and koby, and Pablo is right. This being an HTC device bodes well.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] dragon4000:
Just a few screens of stock froyo. GPS seems to take its time to connect. Wifi connects and sometimes it doesn't. Camera lags it. Sometimes blurry n ffc its a no go. That's all I could test. Very sleepy.

Excuse my ignorance, are you one of the devs on this project? I'm not a dev but I'm happy to test, report, log, etc. in whatever way would be helpful. Let me know.

That's Kmobs, he was the only dev on the project, until recently when he had to remorse his MT4G. Now we will have a new dev, as soon as he receives his new phone (This week?).

Thanks dude its right!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] mbernusg:
Best purchase I've made all year with this device
[myTouch 4G Android Development] borodin1:
Ok... here's couple of things I was able to find out:

GPS fix (from IRC):

[13:55] <@zinx> eYe_: if you use the libloc_api.so from the latest CM release for vision, it'll work slightly better, but it still won't have xtra data if you boot it with wifi on
[13:56] <@zinx> eYe_: so, push the file over using adb, boot w/ wifi off

If you did not understand what this means - wait for stable release.

2nd. New market works fine with CM (not sure about any other roms). I pushed it to /system/app, not sure if you can just install it or not. APK is attached. Source
[myTouch 4G Android Development] cdw9800:
just tested the apk on ice-glacier works great
[myTouch 4G Android Development] borodin1:
Good to know, may want to let folks know in iced thread.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] stlouie65:
I concur, the New Market works :D
[myTouch 4G Android Development] smirkis:
even on stock rom it works fine.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] kambiz.aghaiepour:
What is nut hugging and what positive influence does your reply have on this thread? The same could be said for my reply I suppose, but it just had to be said that if all you're doing is putting other people down, you might reconsider sending your reply, or at least find a different way to phrase it. If you're not a fan of CM6, and you know you're never going to use it, then just don't use it. OTOH, if you're interested but you think there's some room for improvement, then get involved, or make requests in a way that doesn't come across as "you suck, and I rule". That's how my 8 year old boys behave.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] dragon4000:
Just pushing my luck here, but, do you think that if I also push the libcamera.so, libcamera_client.so, and libcameraservice.so, that would fix the camera issue??
[myTouch 4G Android Development] provenflipper:
Can anyone upload the file needed for GPS fix and where would I adb push it to?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] borodin1:
Most likely not, otherwise it would be already done. Stop by in IRC and talk to @zinx about it, he should have his phone in few days so he'll be doing more testing and may be provide us with some nightlies. Still, don't let me stop you, make a nand back-up and do it... who knows, it may be as simple as that.

About this GPS fix.... did not work for me, at least not as good as I was hoping it would. Def. some improvement but not enough for daily use.

If one still wants to do it... download Vision build from CM forums or XDA thread.

File is located in /system/lib and needs to be pushed in the same location on your phone.

Good luck.

PS I think I encountered a bug in the alarm as well where if you snooze it it will not sound again. Almost made me oversleep this morning. Did anyone notice similar behavior? I'll do some more testing tonight but wanted to see if anyone else noticed it.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] edru:
Its not a camera issue - its a video issue. Look at any youtube video and unelss you have an active graphic refreshing the screen (progress bar, comments you scroll throuh non stop) you will notice even that locks.

Cameras work fine - video does not.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] borodin1:
Right, and it sounds like it's a buggy driver from HTC which somehow works in Espresso but does not in AOSP or Sense. @zinx was looking into it and even he said that it's a tough one to crack. Oh well, they've done it before, I have my faith that they can do it again.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] dragon4000:
Well, the camera seems to lag it as well. I use snap photo and it works fine. Now, for video, thats different. YouTube does in fact lag. I keep on switching from portrait to landscape, lol. Also, while snap photo works well for for photos, when I try to record, it force closes. Oh well, I'll stick to this even like that. Can't stand sense and I while I know there's lp and adw, I just love the stock lock screen. Specially with the quick sms and call. "patience is the mother of all virtues" so I'm just gonna wait. Lol.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] dragon4000:
That's what I was thinking. Lol. As a matter, I went ahead and pushed them. It seem to be working but for some reason my phone rebooted and it got stuck on the splash screen. Good thing nandroid was around. Lol.

Tried this out all morning and I have to say..Damn I miss cyanogen. I know this will be one if not the best ROM once camera gets fixed. It's crazy cause if you hold down the camera/camcorder switchermajiger the camera and camcorder work perfectly fine. Going back to IceGlacier just cause I really need cam to take nude pics of my girl and her girlfriend.....simultaneously lol (truestory).

is anyone else not seeing 4g? i havnt been able to get anything but 3g since flashing this rom. not that its the end of the world just was something i noticed.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] hawaiian.monzta:
You will most likely stay at 3g. This rom uses 3g as the standard. The only time you will see 4g is if they phone needs it and is in an area that covers it
[myTouch 4G Android Development] snazzymasta:
With the 3G/4G stuff, it's because the ROM's a port of a non-4G phone.

Also, is anyone having problems installing the new Market APK over the top of this?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jhr4972:
To clear a few things posted in the last few hours:

1. 4g should work fine, you will not get the icon for it, but you should have "4g" download speeds.

2. Cyanogen is not ported off any phone, it is based on the AOSP.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] snazzymasta:
Ahh, alright, I thought the MT4G was ported, thanks for the clarification.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] thatguy13:
can someone explain what ASOP is versus other options?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Phateless:
Have you run a speed test with the app to verify your connection speed as opposed to the icon?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] borodin1:
AOSPis the real Android. That means source is available and can be reviewed, modified and compiled to fit your needs.

Other choices are Sense, TouchWiz, MIUI, MotoBlur, DreamScape and other manufacturer specific builds which are usually closed-sourced and undocumented. Search next time, I already answered the same question yesterday or 2days ago.

[myTouch 4G Android Development] thatguy13:
1st test:Download 1179kbps and upload 274kbps

2nd test:Download 1545kbps and upload 418kbps

I have full bars and from all indication have overall great signal. Neither tests are even close to what from my understanding standard for 3g are. Now please correct me if i am wrong but 2g or edge should have 1.5mb/s 3g should be 20mb/s and 4g would be 100mb/s
[myTouch 4G Android Development] KenpoAP:
Actually is AOSP meaning android open source proyect (google) pure softwats from the ones who build the platform. Clean without the manufacturers bloatware nor the provider crap!

Ex: t-mobile tv
[myTouch 4G Android Development] itmustbejj:
where did you get those numbers? 4g has a THEORETICAL max of 21mbps, but is actually capped at like 14mbps on T-Mo.

I am getting about 3-4 mbps on hspa+ here in Indy. Anything over 1mbps is pretty good for hspa imo
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jhr4972:
Edge or 2g in real world scenarious will only be about 150kbs

HSPDA or 3g will get about 1-4 mbs

HSPA+ or 4g will get 3-6 mabye a little more depending

Now these are all relative to your signal, where you are, etc. Do not take these as stock values. As well as the 4g marketing t-mobile is using is not actually 4g, none of the current providers offer real 4g; as of now 4g is being used as a marketing term and that is it.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] thatguy13:
IMT(International Mobile Telecommunications-2000) Wikipedia - something i read on i thing engadget when everyone started talking about rollingout 4g, now weither or not anyone is actually getting anywhere near that in reality i doubt.
