Which should I flash? Cm - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey there
Which rom should I flash?
CM6 or CM7?
Why?
Thanks =)

Cm7 still has a few bugs to work out.
If you want a stable, ready to go rom, 6.
If you never use your gps, 7

Yeah, cm7. Rocks

I'm running PyroMod simply for the actual A2SD capability, and it's running as flawless as any other CM-based ROM.

Stable? Yes.
Ready to go? No; it's still plagued with the "unknown number" issue with many G2s.
As far as the GPS, I've been running the CM nightlies ever since RC2 and have never had an issue.

DInc GB + netflix?

Just wondering if there is GB for incredible with working netflix app. Tough to give up netflix now that we've got it.

As of now, only GB for incredible with working Netflix is cyanogenmod7.

Cool thanks. I left cm7 and have been a little bored ever since so this is good news. Back to cm for rc! Thx again.

No problem! I give the developers credit, its pretty cool that they've gotten sense 3.0 features working on our phone but when it comes to speed, stability and compatibility, nothing beats CM7 and that's why I stick with it.

GingerBread MIUI also supports netflix.
This worked for my friend when his EVO Shift GB had audio but no video:

I'm running GB 2.3.4 omfgb rom and the latest update of netflix v1.3.0 no longer works. When I try to play a vid it goes to the loading screen and then right back to the main screen. If I use my backup of the previous version 1.2.2 it works fine.
It is slightly annoying that the app keeps notifying me that there is an update available, but at least that is only upon launching the app and returning to the menu from watching a vid.
I was just curious if anyone else was having any issues like this.
leak GB for inc and Netflix

i don't use netflix so i really could care less

Vanilla rom

I really like the vanilla look of CM 6 a lot, much more than the look of CM7. However, for some reason CM6 gave me random issues causing me to stick with Fresh 3.5. Is there another rom out there that looks just like CM6 but has everything working, especially 4g? Or is CM 6 the only rom for the EVO with that look.
What are these random issues?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
modnation (pretty much all thoughtlesskyle on this one) recently made a theme that does just this. check my sig. it's the one called spring cleaning.
My corporate calendar would never consistently sync properly and I had weird camera freezes, front camera never working. I tried wiping,clearing data, reflashing, redownloading, you name it. Finally just through in the towel.

here's an actual link to the theme. it's a froyo (that's cm6) theme for cm7 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=13420115

WiFi issue with ADHD

Hi, I used to use ARHD 6.x.x and I noticed that I could not locate my home WiFi (always out of range, even when beside the router). At the time I thoyght it may be a router issue, until I tried the IceColdSandwich Rom, which found my WiFi with no problems, and seemed to have an amazing range. I just went back to ARHD 7.0.0 (I'm a big sense fan ) and once again I cannot find my home WiFi (just my home network, not any others), does anyone have a possible solution/fix for my problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated
Note: I've tried all the "WiFi fixes" on the market, none have helped

Full wipe and new flash?!
I've tried that before with no luck :/ even went to the point of redownloading the rom

Try using another kernel?
are there any you can recommend? I've tried a few but none seemed to resolve the issue
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using XDA App
If possible use the kernel from rom that worked. If think it's lordmod kernel. Im using it.
the kernel I am using is an ICS kernel, but I'll try using the Lord mod sense kernel (if I can find it)

AOSP kernel will not work on Sense ROMs. Or it wilk but you'll giant issues with it, like your wifi or data and system apps force closing. You can browse the dev section to get a sense kernel.
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using XDA App
Hi if u use the rcmix v4.0 ROM it is just like sense with tweeks.it's a great rom nd I have never had any problems with the wifi nd it is by far the best rom for desire hd in my opinion.and in the tweaks u can change the kernel aswel.

I've never tried it, but I'll give it a go
edit: I don't think it's a kernel issue now, and it may not be the rom either, I tried the latest official blackice rom, and i couldn't find my home wireless network, but I found others. it's very confusing as it has always worked perfectly fine before
edit 2: okay so I pretty much cycled through every available rom for dhd and the only ones that had wifi working were the ICS ones (unless specifically stated that wifi was not working). gingerbread seems to hate my home wifi now for some reason. anybody have any ideas why?
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using XDA App
sorry for the double post, just wanted to bump it and let you all know that the problem has been solved the channel on ny router (which was set to auto) was on channel 12, seemingly undetectable by by gingerbread but detectable by ics, so I just changed it to a compatible channel thanks for all the help though!
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
I had the same problem. I gave up on that and moved to another ROM.
i hope u sloved it soon.
Ty the problem has already been solved

Instagram

Hi all,
As far as I know the instagram app doesn't support this phone, any ideas to work around this?
Sent from my HTC Vision using xda premium
Hey,
(have you actually tried running the app?) if so,this appears to be a specific problem on your end, since I know for a fact that it does work. I tried it out approx. a week or two ago and it worked just fine. Also i just checked the desktop play store and it gave me a green light as well.
(currently running flinny's test build 71)
It works

It say this version doesn't support my device. Could it be my rom? I'm running ilwt.

It's the ROM I was running MIUI the other day and got the same message. I'm running ICS now and have it on my phone.

The app does work. Have you changed your LCD density? If so change it back to the default value and that should fix your problem.
Sent from my HTC Desire Z using XDA
I didn't change the LCD density at all. What is s good ics rom to flash? Many of them I tried have laggy keyboards.

I'm also rocking GB MIUI and the app has been working flawless for weeks now.

I've had it working since day 1 on various roms. I don't like the fact that you have to crop and do all this stuff to use the app and upload images. While its a "cool" social network, Pixlr does the job and allows you to post on other social networks without having to crop your image.
Hope you got it working.
I had the same problem, but is only if you go on the market trought the phone it says that. I went to http://play.google.com and from there I could install it and I'm using ILWT very easy, I ain't got problem

I have similar problem but no need pull batery, just a reboot and it will fast again.
Try running a cache cleaner. I have noticed some programs doing that and I run cachecleanerng and it seems to fix it.

Can't reboot, its pretty much completely unresponsive.
As for the cache cleaner, doesn't do anything even after full wipe and fresh app install.

Simply put Google will ignore any bug reports of chrome on "unofficial" android releases such as ICS on desire Z, and cuz its not for gb, they wouldn't support the G2/DZ are all, so support inquiries are basically ignored.

I have tested Chrome on my Mimicry 1.4.0, based on ICS 4.0.4.
Chrome didn't run fully functional e.g. Fn key didn't work...
Wasn't working right for me either. Since it really isn't working for anyone which browser do people prefer instead?
