Has anyone had an issue with Gmail syncing over WiFi with 2.4 or 2.3? I started experiencing this issue the past week or so while running 2.3, and when I flashed to 2.4 last night, the issue appeared to be gone. The WiFi connection itself is fine, as I can launch the browser and connect to the Internet without a problem. However, this morning I've again noticed that when I'm on WiFi, I don't receive notifications for new emails unless I manually refresh Gmail. Everything works fine on 3G. I've cleared the Gmail cache, cleared data - I'm really at a loss as to what's causing the problem.

Try turning the ringer volume down.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dbrits:
I did. The volume still increases.

ETA: Visual proof:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-U3UdrCztM

I've toggled "quite ring on pickup" on and off with varying results. If I turn it on, then the volume maintains a steady level. When I turn it off, the ringer volume will either increase or the ringer will abruptly stop.

Chingy, since CWM doesn't wipe adequately, what would you suggest to wipe so that WiFi might work?

Guys... i wanna let u in on how stupid quad scores are... here is why.

some dev's trick u into thinking the score is high... and this is how they do it.

first

u would obviously wanna have the quadrant app.

now... follow these steps:

1. adb remount

2. adb shell

3. su

4. mount -o rw -t tmpfs tmpfs data/data/com.aurorasoftworks.quadrant.ui.standard

5. run quad and watch your score go nicely up to the 1800-1900 (using a stock kernel btw... will probably be more with other kernels).

Please note that if u have the paid version btw... u will need to type in in step #4 this instead:

mount -o rw -t tmpfs tmpfs /data/data/com.aurorasoftworks.quadrant.ui.advanced

now u know how those nice devs fool u into looking at high scores on quadrant and make it look as if its real... and now u know that quadrant scores means exactly nothing.

so quad lovers... please grow up.

I think hes all tb now, sad to say. Said not to post questions on this thread or z rom thread, but go to his xda thread and hes still all over. Cant say i blame him, hes got a new toy and he gave us some great stuff, but i give up on waitin for a z update, its been too long and the threads are dead. We still got great devs here. So i moved on to a supported rom till something changes. I had never used a rom as long as i used chingys z rom, best rom ever for my phone, too bad its dead.

not to mention i also have school and im taking 17 units... i mean if you guys want to pay me so i can drop out and school and make this my living maybe thats what you guys can do. all of the 2.3 mods work on 2.4.

you gusy also need to realize that i have to do ALL of this myself. i dont have people helping me like some other people do. i have over 100 mods and you guys think i can just re do them all like its nothing. im not a slave to you guys and i do this whenever i have the time. you guys shoudl be grateful i even do this stuff for you anymore when i dont even use my inc anymore... just sayin.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dbrits:
Chingy, thanks for all of your hard work on this ROM, especially considering that you no longer use your Inc. Make your mods and tweeks in your spare time. As someone who works in education, please don't forsake your studies for us. Focus on school, and I for one will be patiently waiting for whatever is in store for this ROM.

That being said...

I posted this on themikmik.com (which is actually a follow-up to my first post about the issue here), but I thought I'd post this here as well in case someone here can offer me some assistance or suggestions:

When on WiFi, Gmail sync appears to be stuck. If I toggle the "sync Gmail" check off then on, the account will sync and I'll be notified of my new emails. The same occasionally happens with Exchange as well.

While I doubt this helped, I did a nandroid (still using Clockwork 2.5.0.5), wiped the dalvik cache, factory/data reset, and cache partition five times, then restored the nandroid. The WiFi sync issue still persist.

Since I had some extra time this evening, I wiped the dalvik cache, factory/data reset, and cache partition five times. Instead of restoring a nandroid, I flashed 2.4 and setup the ROM from scratch. Still experiencing the same exact issue with account syncing over WiFi.

Help, please.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ufvj217:
is the vanilla clock the black circle clock icon, or the white square one?

and what is the lockscreen mod?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jadeboy7:
It's the white square one. As for the lockscreen, I believe it's the one from this thread, and it comes included in the ROM: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=919121

To use it, see this guide (for the Evo but same for DInc): http://themikmik.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=168

+1 on this.

I mean, come on folks...how long has it been since 2.4 came out? Less than 2 weeks?? And some folks are clamoring (nay, complaining) for mods and such already?? I'm just glad to have an updated ROM, let alone all the mods and things. A few folks (I won't say everyone, because I believe that most people here are really thankful) have gotten spoiled with Chingys constant updates and mods, and feel like they deserve them at lightning speed.

Take a step back and look at how many roms for the inc are being currently updated on this forum.

.....

The answer is - not many.

Then, think about your own life, and consider how many hours that you have to dump into creating something for other people. Personally, it seems like I have precious few hours a week of 'throw away' me time. And I certainly wouldn't be using on creating ROMs for other folks. (That's just me, and I'm thankful that Chingy does see fit to use some of his on us.)

Then reconsider the comments giving chingy a hard time for not updating here or on the mikmik forums. The man has a life (AND school...like that's not bad enough!) and I think he deserves the chance to live it as he sees fit. Not to mention, he doesn't owe us anything.

Thanks for all your hard work Chingy. I hope you don't let a few spoil it for you.

-Jim

P.S. (Sadly, that seems to be part of the natural life cycle of the ROM world. Why does it so often seem to come to this?

1. Dev creates awesome ROM

2. People lavish praise on dev for awesome ROM.

3. Dev steps back a tiny bit to *gasp* live their life. (How dare they?)

4. A few noisy people piss and moan about step 3.

5. A few other noisy people (This post) complain about the pissers and moaners and ask Dev not to listen to said pissers and moaners

6. A war of people from step 4 and 5 breaks out on forum about who is right and who is wrong.

7. Moderator steps in to remind people to be civil.

8. Meanwhile, Dev has gotten the heck out of dodge, and is now deving for another device.

I've been talking with chingy alot and trust me he's doing all he can with the time he has to update the Rom and mods..... you know he's only one man and he's trying to keep hundreds if not thousand's happy with updates and mods and this stuff is hard work.... I mean for example just Modding a clock can take from 30mins to hours depending on what all you have to do to it so imagine theming and tweaking a whole rom plus making sure its good enough to satisfy the people who use the rom.... plus by him switching to an odex rom it is twice as much work odexing everything...be patient guys he hasn't forgot about you...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] whozamazinka:
newtoroot,

I completely agree. Just to make sure you got the gist of my post that you quoted (since my post was very long winded) I was just calling on folks to give Chingy a break and cut him some slack. I'm sure he's working on it, and even if he isn't, he doesn't owe anyone anything.

The man has a right to a life of his own.

I'm just thankful for the time he has put in thus far.

MMS Video received

I've figured out something pretty cool! If you are having issues with receiving MMS videos, download 'VCast Messages' from the market. It will take a while to allow you to sync your messages to it (or at least it did for me). Have someone send you a video to test it. Open the video in the Vcast Messages app and viola! You can now receive MMS Videos. Once I did that, the native HTC messaging app will open videos in the correct format.

Yes, I know it says SR 3.5 only, but it came across initially when I loaded 2.4 coming from SR3.5. Just wondering if anyone knows of compatibility issues. Thanks.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] trickster2369:
I am fairly confident that it will not work, due to the difference in where the file may be directed in the different ROMS (ire2.4 vs. sr3.5). I did, however, give it a shot and it aborted due to the fact that I am running CWM 3.0.0.8. Wasn't in the mood to downgrade to check it further.

2.4 issues info for anyone

Hi All,

I just wanted to share my day with this phone. I have been a fan ever since I have rooted this phone. Only Rom I have Ever used was this one, anyway issues I had till I looked for this update.

1st. My phone was getting errors and i would have to reboot and fix permissions I was on 2.3..

Well today when I rebooted I got stuck in a loop at the inc boot after the white.

I had then tried fixing permissions, clearing cash etc, and had resort to a factory restore. That worked. However it was slow and lagging I knew something wasn't right. I had to do the following with the results of how and steps.

2nd. I downloaded 2.4. I had then after ALWAYS a wipe and clear cash etc. I had then got myself into being stuck at fixing permissions at the install. I waited a while. reboot and did another wipe etc again, installed again, it installed that time.

however I got stuck into a loop at white screen it would just loop there.

3rd. I did decided to go back to 2.3 as I did I only would get white screen stuck and wouldn't get past there. I tried MANY things as reinstalling again and always many wipes and cash cleans. no go

4rh. I went to my First Backup Restore for the first time. Success finally! Phone alive once again, thank god as after that I need a drink pheeww!

5th. I hate the stock and wanted that 2.4 really bad, so I tried this once more and FLAWLESS and VERY FAST! nice work to the ROM! love it!

Things I never usually do, I never restore apps or info. When I update I always start over, however the last time I had going from 2.1 - 2.3. that is when I noticed some lag etc through out the past months it was getting worse. (I have NEVER done a app restore. I try to start from scratch

clockworkmod is at 2.5.1.2

kernal is at 2.6.32.17

now on re-2.4 working perfect

I hope my steps to fix this help someone else and or is good info to contribute.

Thank You for this ROM!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ufvj217:
i ran 2.3.2 since it came out then when 2.4 came out, i wiped and flashed that and had no issues, but recently after a couple days ill get a ton of FC's, google framework, etc.. and have to wipe and reflash. donno why. i went back to 2.20 finally and so far so good, i know some of you are still running 2.20 becuase you said you've had no issues (i never did) so we will see. anyone else getting FC's like that randomly on the newer versions?

edit- satman80, i just read your post. i never tried to fix permissions when i was getting the FC errors. i should have tried that.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Epicardium:
Sweet! I can confirm this works. I just installed vcast messaging, and now my mms videos show up as they should, using the stock messaging app. In other words, something about having vcast messaging on the phone is making the videos come in the correct format. I tried uninstalling the vcast app, and new videos were broken again. Maybe it's just converting qcp to 3gp when the message arrives??

Thanks for the tip!

Hi guys. Need some help.

My sdcard won't mount properly.

On the phone with 2.4 rom, it's 50/50. When I use an sdcard reader with my windows 7 phone, it's the same thing. In the cases where it mounts, I would try to copy the contents of my card so that I can perhaps reformat. However, even before the copying starts, my sdcard unmounts. This happens all the time.

I never heard this issue with my other roms, but this one.

Please help.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Hitch_Itch:
I really like this rom, but the fact that we have No themes, skins, mods of any sort is starting to bum me out. I enjoy flashing custom roms that have lots mods.

Is the lack of themes because this is a Odexed Rom? Im no dev and only learn by reading google searches or what others here enlighten me with.

So I only ask if it has to do with being Odexed because I have read that these roms are not theme able, they are built for speed only, and Deodexed Roms are built for customization.

Im really hoping that someone tells me Im wrong and that there is a way to get lots of mods for this Odexed Rom.

Can someone give us an update of the future of mods for this rom?

Thanks, all your hard work is well appreciated

Ken
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jadeboy7:
That is a common misconception. Odexed ROMs are most definitely theme-able, just look at the other ROMs on http://themikmik.com. Chingy has been very busy lately and hasn't been able to do much modding, but he has said that it will be done eventually.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] studacris:
Well if it's happening on 2 phones it sounds like your sdcard is failing.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] RegnierD:
Yup, either that or it is somehow corrupted. It sounds like your data on the card is probably lost at this point.

Format her to FAT32, and put her down gently.

I mourn your loss.
