CM 6 users

I have some questions for all the cm 6 users out there. I tried this a while back and could not get the sprint visual voicemail to work and the camera seemed like it wasn't full resolution. I've done some searching but couldn't find a good answer to either of these so I need some help from all the users. All I want is visual voicemail and the camera to work properly. Thanks in advance.

So does this mean that nobody knows about cm6?

Just get the Sprint Voicemail apk and the Camera works just fine. Just cuz it doesn't fill the screen doesn't mean its not full resolution. The pics are 8mp if you set it to that setting.

Yeah I would notice the camera didn't necessarily appear to be full res but final pictures looked just as good. As far as VM, I used GVoice so I'm not enitirely sure there.

What kind of battery life is everybody getting?

How do I set GV in my phone as the primary VM. My phone says that Sprint doesn't support it. Any tips?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

As noted the sprint_vvm.apk needs to be found and installed.
The camera app in CM6 doesn't have the widescreen resolution.
Early on I bought Camera360 to see if the photos would come out better. I'm using that now and it supports the widescreen resolution. Has some other nice features like IS.

your 'issues' are old and have been resolved.
battery life depends on how you use your device.
how you device is configured/setup
what kernel you are using
i have run cm6 with my standard usage for over 28hrs w/ the snap kernel. some can't make 14hrs. /shrug same issue as with the Sense ROMs.
kernels available to CM6 are
snap
kingklix

CM7 help.

Ok this is the first time I ever used CM anything. I figured out how to get the gapps but how to integrate my DB contacts with my reg. Ones? I've been on myn's so I don't know what I have been missing. I even read the wiki on this.
1. Fb integration
2. Changing toggles in notification bar.
3. Finding a red/black theme
4. Swype for cyan ?
5. Anything else useful I should know.
Please and thank you! (I'll be sure to hit the thank button if you help me.)

By DB contacts do you mean from a microsoft exchange account? Best to export them to a .vcf file and import them to your phone.
1. install facebook, under settings, accounts and sync, check the sync contacts box. That'll link it.
2. Settings, cyanogenmod settings, interface, notification power widget.
3. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=11760329#post11760329
4. Go onto swype's website, sign up NOW, they'll send you an email with instructions. Do it now because its a beta that will close soon. Its still free.
5. Enjoy it.

I flashed the themes from the destroyer ROM over CM7 and they work great as well. They will give you a lot of options, about 13 in the theme manager.

Contrary to what the person above me said, most themes you no longer need to flash. CM has the T-Mobile Theme Engine now, which just lets you side-load an APK, then select the theme in the Theme Manager app, then reboot. That's it!
No more flashing crap that breaks on every other update.

where are they? My CM theme manager only came with 3 options. Love to get more easily

I mean fb contacts lol and I'll try these. I was gonna say I'm getting horrible battery but it's hard to judge cause my phone was in the coat room with no signal 58%.

All over the place! There's some in the Market, and dozens posted in all of the Themes sections here on XDA. You could give BlueBuzzer or Honeybread a try, for example.
Remember, just download the APK, install the APK, select the theme in the manager, and then reboot. No flashing or anything. Taking a backup beforehand though wouldn't hurt.

The red CM7 THEME is amazing. I would like to know why my juice defender isn't working though. I cannot accurately judge my battery life but I know Juice would help me.

I don't use it personally, but not all apps are compatible with 2.3 [gingerbread] yet, so you may have to wait.

It's probably cause I'm running an older version. Don't really like the new UI. I am gonna try installing a different version to see if it makes a difference. Now I understand what all this GB hype is about.

Well I think that is what you're looking for. You do that method, except he used "karadorde" for his phone, and I put it teh roxxorz on mine. You can make the text say whatever you want it to. And mine shows up like that on the lock screen and notification bar.

It worked. I used AndroZip and Terminal Emulator. Wasn't hard I just didn't read the second set of steps cause I thought it was an adb only thing. It effin' worked I'm "pimpin'" now hahaha.

Which rom is closest to the original without Sprint's crap?

So overwhelmed by all the roms, I am looking for one which is closest to the original without all the Sprint crap. I tried just rooting and uninstalling Sprint's crap but something keeps crashing Android. So now I am looking for a rom that has all the great features as the original but not of the bloatware. If possible I would love 4g to work, 3g is bogged to hell here in Houston and I find myself using 4g a lot.

There are a few in the dev section. I can't remember the names, but Brad (developer) makes a good one. Fresh 4.3.3 is what I'm using. Stock, bloat removed (installable from sd card)
We're comin from a pure power source.

Stock rooted roms without bloat. There's a few in the development section.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

Try Swagged Out Stock. Exactly what you are looking for.

IMHO, Fresh is the best none sprint stock rom there is.

SPRINT LOVERS Rom is my personal favorite. Most of the apps/widgets that were left in the Rom are uninstallable, this way you can decide which ones to use or not.

Back again, I have been using a rooted stock rom still and over the last 2 weeks the phone has gotten really laggy and slow. Again I have looked at your suggestions but none really stood out. I have been using ADWLauncher EX and love it and I am using Beautiful widgets for my clock. I would love to get rid of Blockbuster, Nascar, Qik Video and Sprint Football Live. I like the HTC texting program and HTC's people program. I have found a rom that is very basic, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1412005&page=2 but it doesn't include these 2 items, if you could suggest apps that work much the same that would work. I like being able to send a text over 160 characters and the HTC texting allows that I also like the speed dial feature which stock android doesn't have. Any help would be very appreciated.

[APP] New Visual Voice Mail apk

I just installed Sprint's newest VVM app (v T.5.3.0.30) after being notified of an update. I attached it for anyone wanting to try it out. I'm running it on a stock ROM, so not sure if it will work with any Custom ROMs. Mostly a GUI change, and the icon changed from yellow/blue to gray/black.
Enjoy.

Did you just install the apk by opening it with a file manager? Of did you adb push it? Or use root explorer?
Rocking cm9

Any one that would like to know.
Its working on cm9rc1 if you just try & install the apk you get a signature mismatch. So I used Root Explore renamed it vtt-sprint.apk copied it to system/app over writing the old one. Then set permissions, rebooted to cwm cleared cashs then booted & it worked.
Rocking cm9

Worked fine from the get go for me on CM9 rc1. Just installed the apk, but I was using Google voice so it wasn't an install over an older vvm. Do have the 9016 SMS notifications though so using SMS filter to block.
Also, installed fine over older vvm on my wife's phone running CM7.2, although same issue with SMS notifications.

Well all (most >50%) cm roms r going the 9016 sms txt cuz that built into the stock telcom moded mms.apk

I was going to upload this, buut then I got high... I found it a few days ago with the SD-temp EC09 flash & VM updated. It took forever to grab because I was running off the dang SDcard. I've been running Darkjje's CM10-0808 and ALWAYS get 9016 since I can remember. Great add signal34!

Any one find a good 9016 blacking app for ASOP ROMs?
My ExGF had the LG optimus s I flashed cm7 on it then the phone was useable. But any how the guy that made the build over at AC forums had the 9016 block built into the mms.apk that came with the rom.

According to Sprint the 9016 messages you get is because you have installed a 3rd party voice message software on your phone and you need to uninstall it. I'm not sure how much of it is correct cuz it didn't work for me. You can try see if it works for you. Other than that, there are no workarounds as of yet.

The sms from 9016 is what triggers vvm app to download the vmail.

Any one figure out a way to silence the ringtone for 9016? I can't believe it took untill 4.x with android to have a stock way to assign ringtone to contacts, but its only for voice calls NOT sms & or mms. If only google would pull there head out of there ass & add this feature to android we would not have this problem. I mean ALL MY old dumb phone could have a custom ringtone for contacts.
[Rant]IDK android is cool & all but its like the ppl/devs at google never owned a phone before they started working on android. I mean really how do you make a smart phone OS that takes all the way to 4.x to set ringtone per contact? WTF ! And as far as that goes idk is that really in ICS builds from OEMS & or Nexus all I know is its in cm9 [rant/]

Well it has been a while since I have been here but figured I would give everyone a little preview. Also I need 5 testers who have sprint service and 4G LTE that can test for me since I am on cricket service. What I have is an AOSP based 4.4.2 MIUI!! Please send me a PM if you want to test. First five who reply will be able to test. I also have one extra spot for someone who has followed my MIUI work and I will shoot you a PM about this.

If you don't get enough testers PM me. I don't have 4g at home and won't be back to work until Tuesday to test those functions but I would be happy to help if needed.

Okay here is a new tester. I have included the aosp dialer (miui dialer does not want to work) along with a few other aosp apps. Also miui superuser does not work so you will have to flash supersu if you want root.
Known issues
miui dialer
miui themes
camcorder (settings need to be changed video encoder needs to be mpeg4) change settings before turning on recorder
everything else I have tested works gps, mms, calls, data (on cricket network not sure about sprint users still waiting on feedback)

I don't know if your upload or my download was corrupt on supersu but I had another one and that worked fine.
Install worked great. boot time was reasonable. I couldn't get your dialer to work so I grabbed one from the play store (first one in the list by modohut) worked fine at least for outgoing calls haven't tried calling in yet. I couldn't get sms to work at all so I installed hangouts and that works fine for me(not my preferred app but it works). No other issues so far but I am still testing. Thanks for the upload.

You have working 3g and 4g data?
When you installed you only had one dialer? The posted zip should have miui dialer (not working) and an aosp dialer. The stock SMS/MMS worked for me see pic below. FYI Google xda lg g3 keyboard. Works great on this ROM. Also try out WSM tools along with the mi-tools module. This is a mini version of xposed and works well also.

3G seems to be working I am getting 400k to 600k down, I don't have 4g in my area but I do at my work so I can test that on Tuesday.
There were 2 phone icons one in the dock which is green the other on the desktop which is blue they both force close on me. I used http://www.callmylostphone.com to test incoming calls and I am indeed able to call with the the one I downloaded. I have never used the one from the play store before I just wanted to see if a random one would work.
Not sure why sms didn't work it didn't give any errors but didn't send anything either.
I will try the new kernel and let you know how that goes.

Philz has an option to do a wipe for a rom install, I did that as well as wiping cache and dalvik. Is there anything else you would want me to try? I would be able to try reinstalling tomorrow morning (almost my bed time now). The kernel you PMed me boots and shows in about phone.
