So let me start by saying I had no idea where to ask to this question. Mlb at Bat 2011 streams baseball games using Flash plugin. My question is why does the flash plug in, and therefore video streaming act so much differently between different roms, and is there something simple that I am missing change the way it behaves and the quality it produces?
I have used it on CM7 nightlys and it works flawlessly, the video image is perfect I could convince someone that my phone had a tv tuner built into it. Unfortunately for reasons I'm not going into CM 7 is not my daily driver rom but Sprint Lovers is, Two entirely different beasts I know. The thing is on Sprint Lovers Rom Mlb at Bat 2011 with flash streams video like garbage, can't hardly tell what is going on half the time, I'm sure you've read the reviews on the market about the quality streaming. Is there a tweak to fix this? I know Cm 7 has several tweaks and sprint lovers is generally a stock rooted rom? Maybe a different kernel on the Sense rom would help this? I really don't want to go throw tossing different things at my phone until I know what I'm working with.
Thanks.
I'm using Net 4.3.4 on a sense based rom (virus airbourne) and it streams just fine, very fluid video.

I also used to use Net's 4.3.4, though on Myn's Warm 2.2, streaming worked great...
OP, you may want to try flashing a different kernel and see if it helps...
Thanks for the suggestion I switched out the stock HTC Kernel for Nets 4.3.4 like you two suggested and now all is gravy. Makes me wonder how all the non rooted evo users are managing without pulling their hair out.
It's a good time to be a desire owner these days.
The roms just keeps popping out day after another.
Question is, which one is the fastest, most stable, best one?
I think a poll is in place.
Please only vote if you've actually tried them all.

Happy flashing!
Tried 2 of them robo and Baadnewz v similar but TBH no video camera,no trackball wake then none of them is the ****
InsertCoin v1 was running very sweet for me but for some reason updated versions caused problems,probably my fault couldn't be bothered with a full wipe currently using RCMix Sv08 very happy with that apart from the 2 points mentioned above and the lack of a menu function to swap from 2G to 3G easily signal,GPS,battery life all great compass i think borked but i never use it
I selected the rcmix S, because for now it's the only one I tested, and what I can say is that it is really fast for normal use. Compared to version rcmixHD
For other ROMs, they seem to be all good as each other. The developers follow the well updated and are listening to users. The user feedback at speed and bug are equivalent for all roms.
You guys did a great job! Thank you for all your work for our small desires.

Camera is fixed in both, lag is fixed in insertcoint.
There are solutions for both roms to get the extra settings working in quick menu. (use search in thread)
There are solutions for both roms to get trackballwake(guides, search in threads).
-video rec. still down
-compas still down
anyhow, my 2 cents.. their both great! I picked insertcoin, not alot of difference between the 2 roms.. but in time that will change imo..
but for now, both very viable! havent tried ace & vision roms yet
In general I agree on:

Interesting i have home& menu wake working but not reliably, but didn't see any options for trackball, looks like i'll have to spend even more time searching XDA

Yes, as you noticed there are almost no differences in our roms, what i can see when i diff the roms is that only thing changed is the ril and some apps removed from insertcoin... so i dont know what is causing lag in my rom :/ strange... should be the same... It can be the plurk which he removed and i still have in my rom (possible memory leak in that app), i will check that when i come back from my vacation, now i am working on A2SD version of v08.
have a nice day everyone

well i don't know where the lag appears, i changed the rils, modded init.rc, changed all wpa related files with the ones from gb leak in an effort to fix some wifi problems, i removed some files, fonts, and moved lib_s to /system/lib.
Problem with my roms later than v01 is flash player 10.2, problem that is also on my froyo roms. and i have no clue how to fix it, thou in robo's roms the problem doesnt exists, plurk i removed from v04 so users should tell if that did the trick or not.
And as mentioned before, robocik did the hard - porting - hacking part. without this we wouldn't have a sense 2.1 rom.
btw, anyone have a clue why compass is acting strange? not that i ever use it, but some users need it
Hmmm its too difficult to compare 3 roms...coz me n baadnewz using same base even features is 100% same...only difference between tweaking n optimization...
But my vote for RCmixS coz robo is the first person who port sense 2.1 Rom...

If you look at the SuperDuperAwesomeROM v0.3 by eddyOS isn't that 2.33 Gb with an earlier version of Sense but made for the Desire, not a port and people say compass doesn't work, so maybe HTC cockup?

try to take my flash player and libs... uploading my A2SD rom, i have changed some flash stuff, we'll see if it helps for the users... have not tried it myself yet.
my users are reporting some calling issues, is that caused by the ril? i am using the one from the leaked rom... i think anyway hehe dont remember anymore.

if the compass problem is in the bravo leak then yes is a problem from HTC. But again the leak is a TEST Build so problems are expected.

thx to Robo for making new STUFF available for our/my Desire
i couldnt find any way to get trackballwake on gb sense roms,i searched a lot.
Would someone plz be so nice to show where to get a flashable zip for it.
Why don't you three musketeers join forces to focus on just one bad ass rom?
I experienced slowdowns when I flashed the vorkmod of rcmix s 0.7, no slowdowns anymore after going back to the original rcmix s. I suspect it's some of these extra modules added (undervolt or a different governor)
btw my compass works quite well

the wi-fi problem on insertcoin seems to be fixed now. check you wi-fi sleep policy. but i seem to have a little problem. from the day i got my desire i used switchpro widget. i use it now also but now i can't make the flashlight work(the flash doesn't turn on). does anyone know a fix for this problem?
Hi All,
I have had my GSM GNEX for almost a month now and have already suffered from the weird bug of loosing signal for no reason after flashing any 4.0.3+ AOSP ROM ( I have a thread dedicated to this here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1487239 ) and I have to say that after using it for a while now, the performance is NOT what I was expecting.
Apps take WAY longer to load on my GNEX then they do on my SGSII both on H Data and on WIFI. Apps include Facebook, XDA Premium, etc...
Scrolling within these same (or any other) apps is very laggy and choppy compared to my SGSII and just general response of the apps is quite laggy compared to the same apps on my SGSII and again this is using both H Data or WIFI.
Has anyone else noticed this at all? If you think it may be ROM based then please see my signature for info.
Does this / Could this have anything to do with the "Force 2G rendering" option in the settings menu? I have not had it turned on since I got my GNEX...
Thanks...
I think you're experiencing the same compare/contrast that I am vs the SGSII. I think it comes down to the gpu (potential cpu as well) influence. My first impressions are that I'll get lag + choppiness when multitasking +/- what those tasks might be.
Also, widgets in the app drawer, forget about it, various kernels and ROMs and drawer lag is typically there with widgets in the drawer for me, at least from a "cold start".
That said, I'm much happier with my GN that I am with my I9100 despite the apparent hw advantages of the I9100.

Thanks for the reply... I don't have any widgets in my drawer nor do I really have many apps running simultaneously as I'm a bit OCD when it comes to closing apps that I am not using. I have turned on the "Force 2G rendering" option and it SEEMS to have made a SLIGHT difference (at least in my mind... lol).
Also... have you (or anyone) also noticed that the colours / screen on the GNEX just don't "POP" like they do on the SGSII? My colours (compared to my SGSII) just seem very "blah". Could this be due to the fact that the SGSII is SAMOLED + and the GNEX is only SAMOLED? Would it really make THAT much of a difference? Does the option on the SGSII for Standard, Dynamic and Movie really make that much of a difference?
I dont know could be causing this, but mine seems smooth like always. Maybe the SGS2 is just that much better? I dont use 2d rendering either as for me that makes thing laggy and choppy.
I'm using Leankernel 2.2 now and smoothness is great; it's posted in the CDMA dev forum, but is compatible with GSM as well.

That's the other thing about MY GNEX though. As I said... I had the weird bug with my device after flashing any AOSP 4.0.3+ ROM where I would randomly just lose signal ALL TOGETHER making the phone pretty much useless and the ONLY thing that I found that fixed the issue was using the FuGuMod Kernel so I am scared to try any other kernels.
Take a look at the link I posted in my first post for more info. Others have also experienced this bug(?).
Re: signal drop.
I haven't experienced it yet, although I only purchased the phone on Sunday, it was 4.0.3 20 minutes after buying however.

Mine was flashed to 4.0.3 too almost as quickly and the strange thing is that on Stock 4.0.1 AND on ARHD 4.0.2 ROMS the signal would not drop with the stock OR ROM included Kernels but as soon as I flashed to 4.0.3 the signal would drop like every 5 minutes and the only thing that fixed it was using the FuGuMod Kernel. I am using the UGKL1 radio as well since I am here in Canada and yes... I have tried like ALL the other radios and so far the UGKL1 seems to be the best.

I have to say that kernel is not responsible for signal loss it is your modem . You should also understand that flashing a rom can't change your modem, only if u flash it manually . So I advice you to visit modem collection topic and try several , the efficiency depends on mobile network you use , so I can't name the best for you. As for me UGKK7 works better than others .

Speaking about choppiness and lag ... I tried almost all kernels and roms and my verdict for performance hungry : use MoDaCo + Franco kernel 13 .1 or AOKP with the kernel mentioned above . You will be very impressed . But pay attention 13.1 version of kernel not the latest cuz this one is rock stable and very very smooth like nothing else

I know it sounds silly that a kernel seemed to fix the signal drop issue as I thought it was weird as well but if you look at my thread (link is in my first post) you will see that it is not ONLY me who has fixed this issue by using the FuGuMod Kernel. There are about 10 others who have posted the same success and some who have posted that OTHER Kernel/Radio/ROM combos have fixed their issues as well when NOTHING ELSE had worked.
In your case, I would go to the Samsung website, and download the stock firmware, and stick with that, just root it, and flash recovery (if it get's erased)
Then check if your problem maintains, if it does, relock bootloader, and send it back to Samsung (warranty) if not, then it's the ROM and/or kernel you had installed with the AOKP ROM...

I have a nandroid backup of my stock ROM rooted and with CWM and like I said... I do not lose connection while on stock ROM which for me is 4.0.1
I only started losing signal when I flashed ANY aosp 4.0.3+ ROMs until I flashed the FuGuMod Kernel which seems to have fixed the signal loss issue so unfortunately...
Sending it to Samsung for warranty wont do any good cause on stock there is no issue and if I send it back while on a custom ROM they will void my warranty so I'm kinda hooped either way...

By way of background: I have experience with flashing on this phone dating back to Gingerbread with IncredibleHD and MikRunny from "another site".

Incredibly(^<Paranoid2.19.30Final Questions:
With my current flash of Incredibly(^<Paranoid2.19.30Final, I am not running any themes and installation should be basically standard (though I did have to flash the October GApps package over it because there was no way to set up a Google account).
1. Aroma: The Revised OP still talks about the Aroma installer (I know that there have been two versions of the ROM zip in the past). When I flashed 2.19.30, there was no Aroma installer. Bad download or mistake in OP? Answered in Post #4.
2. Camcorder: Regular camera and FFC are working correctly. The OP says that the camcorder has 720p enabled at this point. However, I do not see anywhere in the settings to change the quality of the camcorder, and the camcorder is currently recording at 480p. How do I change the camcorder to 720p? Answered by The Man himself in Post #14.
3. Bluetooth in Car: With the various AOSP ROMs, when connecting the phone to my car via Bluetooth (not A2DP, just a headset profile), I get sound but it is garbled beyond belief while ringing. For any music buffs, the sound is basically the first chord of "I Believe In a Thing Called Love" by The Darkness...as the sound of a phone ringing. Per Rushead's post #710, it appears that Bluetooth headsets and in-call voice are not functional, which is a known issue in AOSP ROMs under ICS and JB with no fix. Has this been resolved in this ROM since "everything" works but LED camera flash? Answered in Post #9 via OP for Incredibly(^<Paranoid Collection.
4. Status Bar Clock: I want to eliminate the clock in the status bar. I go in to the AOKP settings via Settings > ROM Control > Clock > Clock Style and select "No Clock". This removes the clock from the status bar. However, when the phone goes to sleep, and I come back through the lock screen, the clock is back. Going back in to the settings as referenced above, the "No Clock" option is still selected...and yet there is a clock there. If my memory serves me, in Aeroevan's CM10 the option would be under Settings > System > Status Bar, but there is no option for the clock there in Incredibly(^<Paranoid. Obviously not a huge deal, but just curious if anyone has a suggestion. Answered in Post #9; works fine in CM10 so who cares.
Any information or assistance would be greatly appreciated.
VenomINC 1.3.1 Question:
While my primary questions are related to Incredibly(^<Paranoid as I am digging JB at the moment, as I am already running up my technical support bill I figure I will ask a VenomINC question as well.
I have tried the various Sense-based ROMs under ICS (but VenomINC in particular...same thing, standard install, no themes) and have a giant issue that does not seem to have popped up in that thread: everything works perfectly, with one exception: no audio comes out of the headphone jack. I have tried an aux cable in the car, regular headphones...nothing. This makes the Sense ROMs unusable for me personally, as I spend a good amount of time in the car for work and listen to podcasts/music.
As best I can tell, I believe that this only happens with Sense 4 based ROMs (UKB, ViperINC, EclipticSense over on "another site") but not with Sense 3.6 ROMs (Ascension, the Nitsuj ICS leak) or with CM based ROMs (including Aero's CM10). I will note that I have not tried changing the kernel - I understand that Viper is using the Chinese kernel, while some of the other ROMs have the leak kernel.
The issue was raised in the ViperINC thread by user artcotto in post #s 615, 634, 689, 691, and 693 with no resolution beyond Nitsua98 helpfully suggesting that maybe his headphones were broken (they were not). I have flashed the various updates to ViperINC since November and the issue has not gone away. Any information on this would be appreciated as well as I am a bit of a flashoholic and would likely go back and forth between Sense and AOSP (even though as noted above JB is pretty awesome).
Thank you for the great community and for any information and assistance you can provide. Thanks to all the developers for all the hard work you have done for our phone (which was apparently ancient and incapable of upgrade by HTC the second we bought it) allowing me to have a current phone without needing to buy a NEW phone.

Have you tried earlier versions of ViperInc? I am using 1.0.2 and have none of the issues I was having with 1.3.1 (which were not your issues - just lag). Another question would be - and I'm not sure this would really affect the jack - have you flashed the firmware?

I have not tried going back to prior versions of ViperINC, though I believe I have used from 1.1 onward and had this issue. I didn't mention in my original post, but yes, I have flashed the ICS firmware with the 0320 radio. Maybe 1.0.2 would be worth a try (though I'm not sure there is a way to get old versions of the ROM).

This might sound odd. I've been on viper the longest. No lag. I installed super su n un installed their SU. Also got a busy box installer from the market n updated the phones busy box. I'm also running defensed but made sure I popped in rosie, but it's frozen n I'm running nova. Night n day I tell ya.

I have not tried going back to prior versions of ViperINC, though I believe I have used from 1.1 onward and had this issue. I didn't mention in my original post, but yes, I have flashed the ICS firmware with the 0320 radio. Maybe 1.0.2 would be worth a try (though I'm not sure there is a way to get old versions of the ROM).

fwiw, i also have 0320 radio with headphones working fine. i was previously on ViperInc 1.2.0 and EclipticSense and it also worked fine.
Can you think of anything else you did with your phone around the time you first started experiencing the headphone issue?

Not that I'm aware of. As I mentioned above, I don't think it's a "hardware" issue, in the sense that even now I have no problems with CM 10, Incredibly(^<Paranoid2.19.30, etc. My best thought was that it may be something with the way the Sense 4 ROMs interact with the hardware, i.e. maybe the kernel on my particular phone? But I have no idea. At some point I will try flashing the "leak" kernel over the VenomINC install.
What I'm more interested in at this point is 720p recording on Incredibly(^<Paranoid2.19.30Final (And I am looking forward to Chilly throwing together a CM10 ROM).
If we keep going back and forth we can rack up enough posts to start posting at the grown-up table :good:
So the revised OP for what is now the Incredibly(^<Paranoid Collection answered a couple of the questions.
Bluetooth phone calls do not work in any of Chilly's ROMs.
I flashed his CM10, and the issue with the clock in the status bar is resolved. This leads me to believe it is an AOKP/PA issue; I am fine with CM10 anyway so no big deal there.
However, when I flashed CM10, the same issue exists with the camcorder. FFC and regular camera work great for photos; there is no option to change the camcorder to 720p.
Re: ViperINC issue: I flashed ViperINC 1.3.1 again, and this time I flashed the "leak" kernel over it. Still no audio through the headphones. I tried turning Beats Audio on/off, did not do anything.
Only issues I have with Viper is it will not connect to my media server via the native apps. I also have been experiencing lag but I think it's mainly due to lack of ram as a reboot usually clears it up. Also if you toggle gps off it doesn't work unless you reboot.

I did not install XLoud in the Viper Installer, just went with Beats. As I said in the OP, I know that my issue was previously mentioned but it does not seem like anybody ever found out the cause.
Bluetooth phone calls are not a dealbreaker for me. At this point, if the 720p recording is actually working, I would be happy with CM10 as a daily driver (though I may check out Evervolv as well to see what 4.2 can do). I just can't find the setting...
So what I think I pieced together: the Chilly collection of ROMs does not have 720p recording. When he was talking about the camera being fixed 99.999% except for flash, he was talking about FFC only, and the ROMs do not have 720p recording. I am hoping I am wrong but confirmation would be appreciated.
It may be a situation like the DKStunna thread, where it was proudly proclaimed at the top that "EVERYTHING WORKS", except for the stuff that didn't that you were just supposed to know hadn't been fixed. When Chilly said in Post #875 that "Lol FFC can works ..led flash works but not with taking pictures...video etc works" that does not appear to mean that 720p recording works.

I had got 720p working but it caused problems so I removed it u caught the thread before the revamp
Currently working on most my roms is
FFC with recording
Tethering with 3party app
I will be implementing fixes for led flash
Blue tooth works but has some bugs
Mostly everything works with fixes that I will be implementing
The pa I upped has fixes already baked in ..I'm yet to try BT yet
Once fixes have been baked the roms will be fully functional minus 720p

That must have been what happened...I have kept up with the thread fairly regularly and thought I saw that 720p had been figured out, but as you said that must have been before it was pulled. I was confused why nobody was mentioning it in the thread considering it would have been big news.
Chilly, thanks for the response, and thanks for all the hard work you do to make the phone feel like new. We're lucky to have such talented devs keeping our device relevant. Keep doing what you do! :highfive:
To the Mods: that should wrap up this thread if you want to lock it. I do not believe there is an answer to my remaining question about ViperINC and audio through the headphone jack.

I don't think it was mentioned, but did you try a reflash / redownload?
Probably not going to do anything, but worth a shot.

Sweet. I'm locked in my phone till November so I'll be like 1 outta 12 people left with the phone rocking ICS. Sounds exciting
Can usb tethering be done in cm10. I saw the WiFi app thread but nothing on usb.
Not to bump an old thread, but since I still can't post in the actual development thread: Chilly said in Post #1369 of his ROM thread that "No such thing as 100% but yes everything should work other then rotating hard keys bust out the champagne!"
Therefore my question is, once again: how do you change video recording quality to 720p in the camcorder? There still doesn't seem to be an option for it. Any info would be appreciated.
Hello,
I've got recently this phone and I kind of like it. The only reason was the qwerty keyboard.
The biggest problem I have with this phone is the sound. Every messenger app (skype, yahoo, viber etc) has the same problem. The receiving sound is slow and ununderstandable.
The current ROM installed CM 10.1 Kernel 3.1.10 android 4.2.2
I am a newbie in installing ROMs, but if I could I'd go straight to android 2.3.5
CM 10.1 is very laggy, with lots of problems (missing calls, GPS connectivity, maps, performance etc).
Anyone had this problem and solved it?
Thank you
P.s. I searched in the forum about this issue, but didn't have much luck.
Whos CM 10.1 are you using? Also CM 10.1 is no longer being updated,I suggest you use CM 10.2 by Bubor or a 4.3+ ROM
If you need more help please post back
The sound issue is with voice recording, any action with VoIP, dictaphone, voice dialing etc. will make sound playback distorted for some time. This issue exist in any ROM after stock ICS, so if this is very important for you, you'd better stay with stock. Here's the link: Stock UCLJ3.
If you wish a newer ROM, such as CM 10.1.3 or CM 11, there is workaround with VoIP sound called Tinyalsa stack, but it broke GSM call receiving sound. You can look here.
Also, I should say that CM 10.1.3 and CM 11 I linked have almost no issues beside this VoIP. GPS working great, no missing calls, no reboots, great performance and no battery draining. But I recommend to try and find what will suit you best.

Hello,
Yes I use skype calling a lot, I need this feature working. So you are suggesting me to install the android 4 stock version from samsung, but from what I red, there is an issue with the qwerty keyboard light. If this is true, it confirms my first idea to go with android 2.3.5
Thank you for your replies!
Samsung fixed the keyboard issue and a lot of other stuff in their 2nd release of stock ice. If you see those types of complaints, they are from the first revision.
I'm running stock and the only two issues I have is general UI laggieness (which is expected since its stock with bloat and not really optimized, also running on an older phone with no project butter). Along with messaging notifications failing to make any noise at random. I'll get a new text message and the screen will light up, but doesn't viberate or make a sound at random. Incoming calls still ring just fine though.
Other than those two issues (lag really isn't an issue for me), stock works just fine for me.

Yes, I recommend to install stock 4.0.4, it's the best way I know to have working GSM and Skype calling at the same time without needing to switch alsas stacks. j.asir here using new CM with tinyalsa fix and terminal shortcut - that's a bit inconvenient, but at this time there's no better way to go if you wish to have newest android and skype calls.
I newer tried 2.3.5 ROM on this phone, so I can't comment anything about it. If you try vanilla 2.3.5, please write about the results!

Hi @Makshow, have you considered using a 2.3.5 ROM? I have considered the possibility of doing so as I've heard that our device running GB has no issues at all... or so I've heard, but I honestly haven't had the time to test it. I was considering the possibility of using Inception (Back in black), but the download links are not available. If my Glide would work smooth and with no issues with GB I'd be glad to use it. If you decide to go for a GB ROM could you please provide me with some feedback? I would really appreciate it if you do so. I am not so cool with using ICS as stock is very battery & RAM consuming. And I was not so convinced using Litekernel or literom. Literom is really cool, but it has some issues and glitches that I found very disturbing. If you do go for GB please provide me with some feedback :highfive: Regards
I got this phone with new ROM already installed, so I won't try flashing 2.3.5 GB Android, I have no experience with this at all. Sorry. And I doubt that there weren't any issue with GB, one can search older posts in these forums and see that there were many bugs and bloat and troubles.
As for working download link for INC3PTION 2.3.5 ROM, there is one from Androide3 here. You can try it.

Hello @Androide3, thank you for your response. How long have you been using it? Have you had any issues? Is your battery life good? How about RAM usage?
BTW is there a specific method to install this ROM? I ask since I have never used GB. My phone came with ICS already
Thanks for details given in this thread.
Where can I find the stock android 4.0.4 second version?
An other quick question (I know this is an off topic question), is the samsunng galaxy s i9000 battery the same with the i927 batter?
Thank you

Listen may i know it got really annoying with the sound.. but we have a fix now...
its a third party app which you can use.. its very easy to use and one time setup only
just get any kitkat rom..
its stable and only stops working if the app gets killed but otherwise i have tested it extesively
try it out and i would suggest omnirom to you if u prefer simplicity.

Finally I did it!
Finally I did it!
Ok, it was very easy and I feel kind of stupid :laugh: but as for the first time I'm still proud.
The major problem I couldn't install the stock rom was because of twrp. I had a old version, 2.4 I believe.
I managed to over install cwm v 6.whatever which was compatible with i927 and re-tried to install the stock rom and IT WORKED!
The stock rom is great! the phone is much much much quicker than with cm10.2. All features work! skype calls, voice recording, map, camera rotation, etc. Will see if I will lose any missed call.
The problem, I'm facing now is the sd card and internal memory which were inverted during cm10.2, but I am sorting things out.
I'm a bit disappointed that I lost all the installed apps with cm10.2. and I can not re-install them again. I have only the option to update it which won't work. Any idea?
