I don't have that problem at all. You must be doing something wrong... oh yeah cyanogen...
[Nexus One General] daft.71:
That was helpful. I've had that problem on both; Google's firmware (updated to 2.2.2) and CyanogenMod nightlies. And on two different phones.

As soon I lose all data connection, eventually, I'll get the Google Sign-in error due as my phone thinks the password is wrong. Someone who has the same issue tried it on stock Videotron's firmware with the same result.
[Nexus One General] efrant:
I don't think it has anything to do with Videotron or the data connection. It has happened to me a couple of times (I'm with Rogers and I am using a stock 2.2.2 ROM). It happened : 1) when I changed my SIM, and as well, 2) when I went to the U.S. and started roaming.
[Nexus One General] daft.71:
I don't even have to switch SIM cards or go to the US. If I get into the metro (in Montreal) and lose all signal, I'll get the error. As if the Google apps doesn't know they can't get out and sign in.

I didn't have that issue on my Desire Z running CM7 on Bell's network.
[Nexus One General] efrant:
Hmm, interesting.

When I get on the Metro and lose signal, I don't have to re-sign-in (on Rogers and stock ROM), but if I switch my SIM, I do.

If you turn off your phone (by removing/replacing the battery), and turn it back on, do you have to sign in again?
[Nexus One General] cybik:
Might be a cache or a SIM fail. I've seen a couple of badly-provisionned SIMs from Vidéotron.
[Nexus One General] crishna:
Hi people!

I've read all that stuff, and... well... there is my situation.

first, i'm happy to see other videotron's users posting in XDA!

little history might be required, so in september 2010, when videotron lunched their network, i bought the nexusone. first tings first, i wanted the FM radio to work, in order to accomplish this, i had to flash a binch of stuff, so i unlocked the phone, flashed the radio rom, and started to use the CM6 release. and forwarding on, i installed a bunch of nightlies of CM7 until the full release. everything was working perfectly until a few weeks back. i posted a message about my issues with my phone on this forum and cyanogen forum as well, "which can be read here"

long story short, phone rebooted randomly, on using data comm (either 2g, 3g) but never had issues on wifi.

so, i was tired of this behavior, and reflashed stock rom of gingerbread 2.3.4, tested again, and i could replicate issue without troubles... i called videotron, and talked with tech support, they agreed to replace my phone, which i did yesterday. (i didnt told em it was unlocked, once i put back the stock firmware, it wasnt rooted anymore tho...)

but now, i'm struggling with what was the cause... on this phone, so far, i couldnt make it crash at all... im using the stock rom version of videotron version 2.2 of android...

now, it seems it wont get update over the air, of 2.3.4 ... on the system update, it tells me all the time, that i have latest version...

someone knows if one day, the phone will get the upgrade ? without changing anything ? is there anyone that had the same behavior of random reboot ? was the multiple nightlies flashes caused my problem ? almost flashed all CM7 nightlies since it started... was a rom update a day...

i think i saw a way to root the phone without unlocking it... is that procedure reliable? (since im a unix / linux admin, i love to get root access in ssh to my phone!)

is the Cyanogen mod the only way to get FM radio ? is there a package apps that includes FM fonctionalities while using a google stock firmware ? the same question applies to VPNC, since my work office uses cisco vpn, i found that VPNC was the only apps to allow me VPN connectivity to work, so i kind of need this...

maybe i should had started a new thread, BUT since i saw that my questions also is a part of this thread, and i saw a few videotron users talking here, which seems knowledgable, i knew they would get a email message from this post reply !

thanks for your time, for the time being, ill keep it stock image... ( tho that the first thing i did was a reset factory, which removed the videotron's stuff !!!! )

best regards

hi again, i saw on the forum a procedure to force a checkin by dialin *#*#2432546#*#* which i did. i saw the status successfuly check in but once i went back to update it told me the same thing as usual that my system is up to date what am i missing any clues?
[Nexus One General] danger-rat:
I don't think Videotron have updated their ROM yet?
[Nexus One General] crishna:
oh i see that means system update are actuly going through the carrier but not google itself... i thought that it would be more like a market thing where phones make their checkins at google code stuff. i would like to get a confirmation from videotron on how its done!
[Nexus One General] efrant:
Certain carriers, like Videotron and vodafone, have their own carrier-specific ROMs, so the stock Google updates will not work on those ROMs. So, your ROM is up-to-date. If you want stock Gingerbread, you are going to have to flash a stock, unbranded ROM.
[Nexus One General] crishna:
thank you to confirm this, i wasnt sure. i contacted Videotron... they told me they are working on a gingerbread release on their network but not availlable yet on nexus one, it is on nexus s tho.

on the other hands, i think the easiest way to get a stock google image would be using the passimg method... i dont feel like unlocking my boot loader and doing some root stuff...
[Nexus One General] crishna:
another question tho, about the roms... i saw that depending of your display, you need to be carfull of the roms you take, seems there are version for amoled ans slcd, how can i determine which one i have in order to get the proper rom ? someone have a clue ?
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
Use the FRG83G passimg, it supports both AMOLED & SLCD, and has a nice high mainver so anyone can use it.
[Nexus One General] ikedagus:
Thanks gravufo!

Your HowTo page and the the ROM file below worked great on my (now former) Android 2.2 Build *CL223106 release-keys (the build had more numbers on it but I can't remember the first part)

The only thing that matters is that it is now running 2.3.4 and it looks good so far! :D

This is the ROM I used on my Nexus One:

656099b119f8.signed-passion-ota-102588.656099b1.zip

downloaded from:

android.clients.google.com/packages/ota/passion/

[Droid X General] DX420:
Currently I'm running one of the froyo leaks and I understand that if I decide to sbf and do the ota (still not sure if there is a benefit) then I wouldn't be able to use the previous nandroids because the bootloader changes. But while reading another thread somewhere there was a guy that updated with the 2.2 full sbf but he said his bootloader stayed at 30.01. So I was wondering if the bootloader number stays the same is that the only thing that matters when it comes to nandroids?

[Windows Phone 7 General] Aaron McCarthy:
My wife and I both upgraded our phones... I got her away from her Iphone and I had the tilt 2 and was able to snag along when she upgraded to the Focus by getting on the buy one get one free deal...

She had had her phone for about a week or 2 before we went back to get the free phone from AT&T. I used the same email address as my main windows live sign in when the phone started up that she uses as her main account on her phone. I immediately noticed that her xbox live avatar was across my gaming square. I thought "odd" and immediately decided I was going to do a hard reset and use another one of my email accounts as the main account on the phone.

I got side tracked and by the time I got back to the phone I started playing again and went to the market to try a few apps. When I went to the programs in my phone I had WAY more then I had downloaded... a few apps that I knew were actually a dollar or 2 or 3. I asked my wife if she had bought them and she said yes.

Is this an oversight on Microsoft's part? I have no idea.. BUT I have apps she paid for on my phone regardless. It doesn't sync the phones again like that except for after the initial boot up it would seem as her and I have both downloaded a bunch of stuff since I did my hard reset and they aren't showing up on each others phones.

It would seem if you want to update the phone to have the same apps as someone else who shares the account you would have to hard reset your phone again and all the newer stuff they have downloaded would show up too on your phone..

Just some food for thought for everyone. I realize that not everyone is going to have 2 windows phones in the same family PLUS who is going to have a main email account shared with the person who has these phones? Fluke or not it's fairly neat.
[Windows Phone 7 General] garthus:
I don't think it's an oversite, I believe they are following the same rules they set for Zune, in that you can have any content on 3 computers and 3 devices.

I suspect if she were to buy an app on her phone, you should be able to buy it on your phone without getting charged again.

Right now I have my zune pass content synced with my HD7 and my Zune.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Talys:
I think there's no charge when you go to reinstall the app (for a limited number of devices).

By the way, are you really in Canada with at&t? :p

Wrong place to post this but I will say your going to get about a thousand different opinions on this question. I would say the guy above me posted most of the popular ones and it's gonna really come down to your preference. The i9000 roms are smoking fast but hard on battery life. Do a lot of reading on rooting and flashing before you get started. Don't skip over long posts because your in a rush. Take your time and know what your doing. Good luck. :)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Six6Sicks:
Good question. :)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tbong777:
Ignore the above post ......He is in the wrong section...LOL

Very good question especially for a Development thread....I undertand how with so many choices you ask..

I found it initially by seeking out threads with the most views, longest tenure and most interest..... In my experience those are the best ROMs for a reason as LOTS of users post and are loyal to them.

Designgears (Cognition/Perception) has the most users and followers by a huge margin....AXURA is a good ROM as well (running it now waiting for the next Perception ROM). Assonance is a little too new for me but loos [promising .At the end of the day I am a huge fan of DesignGears ROMs
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XGX5309:
Since each Dev throws in what they think is needed/desired in a ROM, I say try them all and see which is the one you like best. The one I like best may not be the one you like. :) Overall though, I tend to like the i9000 ports.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tod071:
I'd like to know what the FASTEST rom is out there. The fastest one I've tried was from MikeyMike, giving me Quadrant numbers of 2300. After trying a few more, including Perception, Axura, Assonance, and a few others, I haven't been able to find anything faster.

Not comfortable with flashing the 1450 kernels, but if it'll get me higher Quadrant numbers, I might try it.

Back to OP's topic, I found Axura to be my favorite, followed by Assonance.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] modest_mandroid:
Why do you care so much about quadrant scores? They don't really mean anything in terms of real-world performance..

Try ROMs out by yourself. Everyone has different opinions, preferences, likings and so on. Read up on things before you flash them. There is no "best rom" for any device.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 10tonhammr:
You're not going to find an answer to this question. The "top 5 list" above is a good place to start, though. I'm pretty sure most of us are running one of those. Seriously, you're going to want to flash a couple of them and figure it out for yourself. It takes some time, but you'll reach your own conclusions. Have fun!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryude:
You'll eventually do what I did and "brick" your phone. Then you'll swear to yourself that you will only use that one rom you liked before and stop flashing so damn much. lol Of course after a while you get brave again :D
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] srfernsd:
I am running assonance and the call quality on it is perfect, its incredibly fast, and since the 2.0 update there has not been any issues for me. Also the battery life is awesome for being an i9000 rom, but you should try out different roms to find one you like.

I used MikeyMike01's modified Doc's ROM (haven't tried his Assonance ROM) for a while and really liked it. Ultimately, I left that ROM because I was getting a lot of complaints about call quality. So far, Perception has been great for performance, battery life, and call quality. Any ROM based off of JK3, with the JK3 modem, should offer great call quality. It's been said that it's the best modem out right now. It also offers HSUPA without having to flash the JG8 eclair modem and enable the 850 band (blah blah blah). I'm really excited about the upcoming Perception 6. It includes a custom kernel (in both 1GHz and 1.28GHz versions) with the latest version of Voodoo, which means the system partition gets the ext4 treatment, which isn't offered with the ultimate lagfix kernels.

You need to try more Roms buddy....:rolleyes:

Anyway, I have tried most of them, Perception, Cognition, you name it...my favorite is in my sig right now..Assonance 2.0. I finally got ultra quick GPS locking with it while driving not just standing and pretty accurate tracking. It lacks a few things yet as it is a new ROM..well basically power button options is all, but boy it is nicely designed and works perfectly with the 1350Mhz Setiron kernel too.

GeoMod (RIP) has been my favorite BY FAR. Too bad it seems to be dead. :(
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rsunny:
Here is my experience so far.

My first ROM(On a captivate) was Cognition. Flashed through most of DG's releases. Stayed on Beta9 for the longest. Moved to Perception for the JK modem and 850. Had some concerns over the battery life which were proven wrong after a stat wipe.

The I9000 based ROMs are silly fast; however comes with a general warning that they might be slightly heavy on the battery(Not by much, in my experience). JK3 is a must if you are in an 850 region.

Right now I am trying Assonance and must say its a pretty slick ROM. Tried the pre-pre-pre alphas of CM for a couple of days, tried various Doc mods..

Here is my list (strictly personal order)

If its battery life and general stability : Cognition

Speed : I cant choose between Perception and Assonance (Assonance gave me GPS out of the box)so far.

Bleeding edge : CM nightlies, but you will be missing stuff.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avgjoegeek:
heh - the "fastest" ROM out there? Based on my 2200+ Quadrant Score... then Stock JH7 OTA with RyanZA's OCLF lagfix installed.

With most of the Froyo ROM's have been hovering around 1800.

Quadrant is a bogus bench though.

But two questions. Why not in Q&A. And why didn't you use the search and see the other 10,000,000 posts on "which is the fastest/best/life-changing ROM" topics out there?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryude:
Quadrant scores can be inflated, but generally I have found that 1400-1800 feels the same, once you get over 2000 (non-ext2 looped) the phone is stupid fast.
