[Q] CM7 Accelerometer - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Started using CM7 before nightlies were released, everything was fine. Now for some reason after flashing the first official nightly, my Accelerometer isn't working quite properly. I can only switch from landscape mode and back when I go into gallery and view a photo, then turn the phone while viewing a photo. However, any movements out side of gallery do nothing. Anyone else having this issue?

Not sure whats going on for you but my 004/Novatech seems to be working just as it should prior to nightlies and now with nightlies.

I'm on 003. I pulled the battery a few times and did my normal weekly restart and that seemed to do the trick for a while. Now it works like it should MOST of the time. Sometimes it still won't change unless i'm in gallery.

[Q] Moto Defy + Cm7RC1v2 camera flash always stays on

Hi this is my first post on xda, and I'm really hoping someone knows how to deal with this issue.
First of all let me just say that CM7 on the Moto Defy absolutely rocks! I do have one small quirk which I've yet to find any other Defy + CM7 user complain on.
Whenever I use the stock camera app and set my flash to "On", the flash turns on and STAYS on (like a flashlight). When I take a photo, the flash turns off though and works normally for succeeding photos but only until I close the camera app. Once I open up the camera app again, the LED flash stays on again until I take a photo.
I know it's kinda nitpicking but it's been annoying the heck out of me since I flashed CM7 (no other complaints really....wifi works alright and I even managed to get wireless tether to work in infrastructure mode with a WPA2 passkey). I even signed up on XDA just to know if somebody else is even experiencing the same issue.
Anyways, hoping someone out there's got an answer....
Are you just on CM7 RC1v2 or did you install a nightly on top?
I noticed the same in RC1 but some subsequent nightly fixed that. I'm currently on cm7-110813-2132-NIGHTLY btw.
Just RC1, still hesitant to flash a nightly build....Do you think extracting the the camera apk from that nightly and pushing it to the system/lib folder will solve the issue? I once extracted a camera apk from a nightly (not sure which) just to get touch to focus....it works alright but the flash issue is still there.
I don't know but you could try.
However, I've installed every other nightly and haven't had any issues. I'm currently on
cm7-110813-2132-NIGHTLY - but I've seen some commend on the CM7 main dev thread that people are also very happy with cm7-110808-0622-NIGHTLY-Jordan.
tried replacing the RC1 camera with the one from cm7-110813-2132-NIGHTLY....flash issue still there, although now touching the screen to focus will turn it off. However, on the camera's first start, the flash stays on again just the same. Oh well, guess I'll just have to live with this minor annoyance (on an otherwise excellent ROM) until RC2 or the Final build comes out Thanks for the reply twa_priv!

Any experiences with [ROM][4/29/12] AOKP KF Edition Milestone 5

I have a KF, my wife uses it with CM7 and loves it.
I see that there are now stable ICS versions, and reading through various threads, I'm considering the [ROM][4/29/12] AOKP KF Edition Milestone 5. I have AOKP on my Samsung phone and really like it.
Anyone have any experience with it?
Also does it contain the newest kernel everyone is talking about, v.3, or does that have to be installed separately?
Funny, I went from from TWRP to KF a month ago as I figured that's the way everyone was going, and there was the new touch version. Now it seems I have to go back to TWRP in order to install this ROM.
I'm using it right now. It seems stable to me! I haven't ran into any problems so far. Mounting and AC charging work fine (though the battery animation didn't show it on the notification bar, the LED light shows it normally). And to properly switch off you have hold the power button rather than shutdown through the OS.
I'm reading, browsing and redditing perfectly smoothly.
Works awesome! It's the first ROM I've tried that JustWorks(c)
I was having issues with several others, and from install to boot to configure everything went smoothly.
I followed these instructions:

Thanks to all involved!

Are you having any WiFi connecting problems? I am using gedeROM and wifi disconnects every 10 minutes and then I have to go back into settings for it to connect again so I was wondering if there were any similar issues with AOKP.

I had the gede and it had wifi problems.
AOKP wifi works flawlessly for me.
I just flashed it today coming from gedesrom and I am very impressed. Better battery life and it charges on the AC charger faster. I do run into a few trebuchet force closes every now and then, but for the most part I'd say its the most stable.

Yup! I got on board with the previous version, build 34, which did not contain the latest Hashcode kernel, but it was no problem flashing it on top. Worked pretty good.
And I just flashed this new version, Milestone 5, on top of the previous build without wiping data (just cache/dalvik). Works like a charm.
Also does it contain the newest kernel everyone is talking about, v.3, or does that have to be installed separately?

Yes. Milestone 5 has the absolutely latest Hashcode kernel, and it runs very smooth. And I like some of the tweeks and custom options in this ROM.
I have not had any crashes or problems so far. Recommended.
I've tried both gedeROM and AOKP milestone 5. Both work great, but gedeROM seemed to have cleaner graphics, AOKPs icons in the notification area seemed funky. They would overlap or be off on one side.
One more thing, and this could be more of a kernel issue, is that the Hulu app gives a "Device not supported" error for both of those ROM. Hulu did work with CM7.

Nope, never had a problem with Wi-Fi on either aokp or reloaded.

nevermind.. i just updated to 20121024 and it seems to be working now.. dunno if it was teh udpate or what
I'm on 10/22 and it works fine, the only issue I've had since going to CM10 from TW is the video box is actually blank on my screen but they see me fine. When I go to rear camera and it changes views it's fine but even after going back to front camera the box still shows as empty.
Weird.

Front Facing Camera Crash

Hey there, I hope this isn't a recurring thread but I'm having a lot of trouble with this. The stock camera works fine as far as I see, but anything else, the front facing camera WILL crash the phone and make it reboot. I'm running CM10.2 now and I'm on the latest nightly. I don't really expect this ROM to be perfectly stable or anything but it worries me that I might be one of few that have this issue and it will never be fixed. Any clues? Is this something that is happening to everyone? Is there something I can do? Thanks!

This is happening to me too. I am running Bam Rom or Jellybam the latest release. The back camera works fine but when I take a picture with the front facing camera, the phone freezes makes a loud constant beep noise for like ten seconds then crashes forcing the phone to reboot. Sometimes it won't even let me access the camera and it says something like "Can't connect to camera" Please help!

[Q] intermittently drops wifi/data (cm11 Villuminati)

I'm running Villuminati on my E4GT and I love it! It's super fast, running the Google Launcher is great, all around it's way better than the stock 4.1.2
I do have a few minor issues that I don't know if they are just me or if others are experiencing them as well. Intermittently, WIFI and DATA will both turn Orange when I open up my settings tab, and neither one will move any data unless I toggle airplane mode. I followed instructions on page 77 of the developers page and I'm on Virgin Mobile. It's not a terribly big deal because I can get it back, but if I didn't have to worry about it that would be even better. Is there a fix for this? Is anyone else experiencing it?
Also the camera seems quite a bit slower and takes grainier pictures than the stock. Again, not a deal breaker, but I was wondering if that's just how it's going to be or if there is an issue here. Thanks!

I am currently running VILLUMINATI-07292014-d710.zip (KK 4.4.4) with FL24 modem and I have not seen any issues with wifi/data. You may want to try out the latest version that just came out on 7/29 @ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2540250

Like @Luniz2k1 said. Plus did you wipe data, cache and dalvik? Did you dirty flash or clean flash? Have you tried reflashing the ROM?
I'm running the latest version of this now. No more wifi-data issues, I downloaded the Google camera app, and most things are improved. Only problem now is GoogleNow keeps popping up randomly and persistently. I think it might be related to Hangouts as every time I get a text and my phone is unlocked it pops up. My wife (same phone, same ROM) is having the same problem too. I wipe everything before I flash a new ROM too.
