[Q] Need Your Help - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Friends i am very new to android system, still few days ago i flashed my tmobile g2 with cyanogenmod 7.0.3, now i came across fusion virtuous sense 3.0 rom, and wanted to flash, but i dont know i can flash or not? please guide me, i am planning to install this rom with rom manager premium, after removing cache/data and dalvik cache, so can i proceed? i realy dont like cyanogenmod.

You would need to wipe when flashing a new rom I reccomend using amazinglarrys superwipe download from here http://db.tt/7xNYpFp and flash in recovery manauly. I personally would not recommend using rom manager to wipe and flash. You are much better off booting in to CWM and doing everything manually. Just a word of warning virtuous fusion is still very buggy. I better rom to use would be suilmagic insertcoin rom.
[sig]My mission is to hit 1000 posts by 23/05/2011[sig]

I agree. Although Virtuous Fusion is very pretty, it is a HUGE memory hog, and will cause buggy/laggy behavior. I would suggest a different version of virtuous, g-lite, or insertcoin (as suggested above) if you're going for a sense based rom. I'm personally digging meXdroid V3, but it's similar to cyanogen. Flash away until you find exactly what you want. Happy flashing

you are right guys, i flashed that rom, and surprised to saw it wasnt gingerbread, none of the gingerbread app worked in fusion's rom, so get bavk cm7, but it doesnt support aac music in ringer, no smart dialing, and also we cant delete single message from the thread, have to remove whole thread, please
advice me which one should i use which has all the features mentioned above?

Why do you need aac support for ringer? Just make a ringtone and move along.
What are you talking about can't delete single message? Works fine here.

Same here. In the stock messenging app I can delete a single message, all messages from one person, or just all messages by long pressing the desired selection. As far as aac ringtones go, use Ringdroid to snip out any part of an mp3 on your phone to use as a ringer/notification. There are also a few programs on the web that can convert aac to mp3

Why are you asking this question to a normal user?, dude I came from nokia symbian which supported all ringtones or audio formats (almost all) thats why I have huge number of ringtones and songs in aac and wma formats, cyanogenmod cant even play wma? What a **** of a roms he produces, it doesnt even have a flash player, had to install seprately, but what to do with a huge number of aac tones and songs I.already have? I am feeling headache converting 200 songs and 95 ringtones to mp3, now come to messages, I am saying that I cant delete 1 message from a whole thread of a contact, it has no option to delete 1 or some messages from a thread, it doeant even have a smart dialing, I love htc sense, but only problem is it produces very low sound in ringer. I thought fusion's rom is gingerbread so i'll able to use volume boost or dsp manager, but it gave force close error. Did.you understand now?

dont know what to tell you about the ringtones, i have always used ringdroid to convert the particular sound file i wanted into a ringtone.
for the messages, have you ever tried LONG PRESSING on the message you want to delete? if you want to delete an entire thread from someone, you LONG PRESS on their name and select delete thread.
i dont really think you understand what cyanogenmod is about. it isnt the work of one guy, and to put down the hard work the team has put into it, is fkn retarded and completely disrespectful. if you dont like it, build your own fkn rom and stop crying.
im done in this thread. i tried to offer a hand, but apparently you dont give a **** about alternatives, or suggestions. your attitude is ****

I mentioned that in my 1st post that I am new android user, I am not a developer, I am just a new born baby, they are a developer I dont have a computer like them, so dont give me a nonsense ideas about making own rom, they dont even like peoples like me to.complain about bugs in their roms, and btw just read ur 1st reply in manner u gave, but this time u replied to the point that long press message which I want to delete, this is called helping others, its my right to say anything which is missing in one's roms they develops. Right now I cant post in developers section bcoz of 10 post requirement.

My newborn baby is not nearly as rude and snippy as you. Especially to people that have been legitimately trying to help you.
The phone plays AAC and WMA songs just fine. You just can't use them as ringtones or notifications. You don't need 95 ringtones. Pick a few you like and convert them to MP3. AAC and WMA are proprietary formats (developed by Apple and Microsoft, respectively). If you wanted maximum compatibility, you should have stuck to MP3, which is the universally accepted standard.

That's bull****, the developers like having bugs in their ROMs reported, so they know what needs to be fixed.
Cyanogen himself does not check these threads for bugs. You need to use the issue tracker linked on his ROM post, if you want to report a bug.

Recently, Adobe has been updating Flashplayer frequently. Including 3rd party software in a ROM, that is going to be obsolete in a week doesn't make any sense, when you can just download the latest version from the Market.

well I never mind whatever you say, as far as I know, I have to sacrifice 1 thing, so opt for a sense ROM named as insertcoin, my main problem with sense ROM is just 1, its produces very very low ringer, but other than that its way way better then cyanogenmod Rom, I don't know why fusion's sense ROM doesn't support apps made for gingerbread, like volume boost etc, he mentioned its a gingerbread ROM. I have flashed cm nightly, fusion virtuous, droidv3, and next is insertcoin, so far droidv3 was the best ROM I used. faster, and not laggy. btw my question was replied in a rude manner 1st (why do you need aac ringtone? what are you saying about messages everything working fine for me) now take a look and think who was rude 1st, will u call it helping? thank God I don't help people this way.

Magic/ION/Google ROM on the Hero!

Hi Guys!
I have been searching for days if someone has managed to install a clean google rom on his HTC Hero. I can only find people running rooted Hero Roms.
The point is, i want to get rid of all the HTC Apps. I've managed to delete a lot of the stock applications, and it improved the speed a lot!
If i install any other "Magic based rom" the phone will hang on the HTC boot screen.
If i push original google apps like "contacts.apk/.odex" to the phone, they won't run.
Can someone port the original Magic/ION rom to the Hero please? I know a lot of people want to run a "clean android" rom on the hero.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
My phone is rooted now with Modaco / CyanogenMod v1.4 + JF.

I cannot see the point why someone would want that . No offense , i mean all the HTC customisation and Rosie was the whole point in buying this device instead of the HTC Magic( which has the exact same specifications and a way lot cheaper)

To be honest, i don't really know why i bought the hero. I didn't know much about android at the time i bought one. Now i know better, but anyway, that's not what i want to discuss..
The magic can almost run any rom, why can't the hero run any rom i want?

Please people, i don't want to be a jerk, but don't come up with questions like "Why did you buy a hero then?" ..

I'm on the same boat. When I bought my hero I hadn't really seen any working Android phone, either stock or HTC. Now that I have seen both I think that the stock apps and interface are somehow saner than HTC's, and what can I say? I'd prefer to use them.
Why don't you run the Rosie remover. It will get you part of the way to where you want to go
Indeed! but I also prefer the stock browser, the stock music player, the stock calendar, the stock contact list and dialer... and so on. They look less flashy but handier to my taste.
I totally agree with, frandavid100. I would also love to have a vanilla android rom on my Hero.
Actually, why do magic roms not work with the hero? What kind of modification would you have to do for them to work?

I think that the hero rom is not like the win rom. i mean all the htc customisations superimposed on the windows ones. There, all we had to do was just to remove the htc ones and we automatically got the windows ones.
I guess android's different. we have to remove all the htc customisations and add android's ones. Problem is hero never had the android's applications. what could be done is take a magic rom, remove all the applications and try to port them to the hero.
Problems would definetely arise cause the 2 phones are not 100% identical. some software work on the magic but not on hero bla bla bla.
I know some stock apps do work with the hero. I have been able to use the stock calendar and browser in my hero by replacing the apk and odex files, however replacing the contacts app makes it hang.
We could try to make a list of what apps can be replaced and how, or maybe even make update.zip files specific for that, similar to modaco's rosie remover. How difficult would that be?

I think that you'll probably find that the difference here is that chefs with a Magic or G1 actively want to "upgrade" to the latest and greatest ROMs. So, when presented with a Hero ROM, they will make the effort to back port it to the hardware they have.
The situation with the Hero is a little different. Here we already have the "latest and greatest", so there is probably very little motivation for a chef to port what is essentially an earlier ROM to the Hero. What you need to find is a chef who has a Hero, who either wants to run stock android, or is interesting in the intellectual challenge!
So, it's not really the case that "the magic can almost run any rom" - it's that their are chefs with Magics who are building these ROMs.
Regards,
Dave
Thanks guys!
I knew i wasn't the only one who wanted a clean vanilla android rom on the hero. Like frandavid100 said before, till there's another "magic rom" or something, we could make a list of apps working on hero.
I've had the same thing with the Contacts.app. This makes the phone freeze, and after removing the battery it constantly reboots.
If we all together manage to make a list of apps, i can create an update.zip which does all the work.

Let's do a test. I know you can replace HTC's browser with Android's. I'm attaching the files for both, can you create an update.zip that removes the HTC files from /system/apps, and pushes the stock ones?
EDIT: failed to upload the files to the forum. You can get them here: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=TVL3Y8UE

I will do that tomorrow ok? I live in The Netherlands and its 09.35pm and i'm watching a movie
BTW: I also have a stock Magic/ION image. I can extract the apps from there as well. Tomorrow i'll try some apps.
Thanks for the effort guys!
Just another quick post. Below you'll see a list of apps which i'm going to try tomorrow. Please post request apps if i forget one.
- Contacts (probably doesn't work)
- Phone (unknown - probably same as contacts)
- Browser (probably works)
- Music Player (probably works)
- Messages/sms?
- Camera (unknown)
- Albums (probably no multitouch)
- Camcorder (don't know if this one is available)
- Calender (probably works)
- Calculator (unknown)
- Clock (don't know if this one is available)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BTW; If you guys want the original android lockscreen, just remove HtcLockScreen.apk/odex. After reboot you'll have the original android lockscreen where you have to press "menu" to unlock. Works faster and ofcourse no lag!
Hey, if you come back during the ads... can you point me to that stock rom? I'd like to try some of those too.
I can advance that Browser and Calendar do work (I'm using them right now).

I am sorry.. i'm at my girlfriend and don't have my laptop with me tomorrow i'll post some links to different roms we can work with. But i can assure you they won't work on the hero.
Im also going to try to port the sapphire keyboard to the hero. Don't know if someone already did this, i haven't used google yet.
Actually, the keyboard is one of the few things I like from HTC's customisations I'll give the sapphire one a try tho!

I am sick of all these ROMs

I guess what I mean to say I am sick of all these problems, with both stock and cooked roms, I just want a phone that works smoothly.
What I wouldn't give for ANY ROM that is reliable.
I have tried ROM after ROM, and I still have not found even one that is truly reliable. The stock ROMs, or ones close to stock are maybe better but not OK.
I am so sick of the slow HTC messenging client (I have tried the fix to disable it, but that doesn't work)
Even the regular windows messenging freezes.
In fact the phone seems to have a lot of fun freezing up all the time. It usually unfreezes after a while, but why would I want a phone that I have to wait 5 minutes for before I can do anything?
All I want is 1 reliable ROM. It doesn't have to be lightning fast, just something that doesn't waste my time.
It would also be nice to have something with a bit of cool graphics in it too, but that is not important.
I have read online about a lot of people having the same problems. Why can't we seem to fix this? I have a lot of faith in Xda-developers, so I know this can be done.
try cooking your own then maybe you'll see how hard it is to make a reliable rom. :|
Yeah, I don't mean to give any offense to the chefs, as I thank them for their effort, but I think the problem is deeper than that.
I just want to know what I can do? Or maybe how can I help to discover the root cause of these problems?
you know...i dont think its the ROMs...
honestly i think it's because the stuff that's on the phone (whether its a stock ROM or a cooked one)
it NEEDS more memory...
thats what i think at least...
well how can one build a ROM that is snappy and reliable?
Its not the RAM, its the Qualcrap MSM7200 processor. Same processor for 3 generations. Thats why.
Check my signature & words of Gandhi Ji, you will understand why we fail. Our greed always outgrows our technological developments & what we are left with in the end is nothing but frustration.
To be specific have shipped ROM & attain the nirvana.
Kind of same feelings here. I have been using modified ROMS and now I realized that some of my text messages don't go through to people. This is kind of bad because I already fired one person from our company because there was misunderstanding cause she never received the message but I didn't believe her cause I got confirmation from the operator that she got the msg
and JUST now the phone just suddenly went blank and now it says that has to reset the device completely. I didn't even touch the phone I just noticed that it had lost the wallpaper suddenly and then tried to reinstall the wallpaper didn't work. Then reset and the phone didn't get on anymore
Luckily after some waiting the screen came and said I can reset the device. Now has to reinstall everything again. Fuuuuck. Would have other things to do than this..

have u tried my rom. i think i got them all covered
let me know here y it wouldn foot ur bill

Maybe we should start a quest to find that one ultimate ROM that makes this thing into a phone we can rely on.
I bought this phone because I use all of it's features heavily, I text and email and call and view documents, and surf the web and listen to music and watch videos and more constantly on this thing.
For it to be unreliable negates all the good functions it has.
How about we all work on finding/testing one ROM that is priority #1 Reliable?

lol...seems kind of a self defeating goal. Can there be anything such as the one perfect Rom when we each have our individual preferences and priorities? Also, we have to factor in the reality that the networks themselves are not reliable. So, if ATnT or Verizon drops calls and text messages, can we really say it is the Rom that is unreliable?

I was thinking of making one that can be the basis ROM from which all others are birthed. Or at least find what formula or tricks we could apply to make the ROMs better?
lawlz. Good Luck finding the 100% perfect rom.
If you look at each rom's thread, each new rom they release more likely has a new OS build. Then each new build has their own issues, either from previous version or new issue entirely.
IF the rom the chefs release is just plain unusable, they normally release a FIXED rom with the same build.
Known issues are just that, chefs normally don't fix them because they just can't. So hoping for a new build of the software might fix it.
Each of the roms' issues can be fixed with patches, there are general patches that can be found all over or a patch by the chef when they sometimes forget to fix an issue unique to their rom.
From what i've been noticing, no chefs has cooked up the same rom more than 5 times to fix some issues until it is 100% perfect. By the time they do that, there's a new build of the software and they'll be cooking that instead. Not only just the OS build, they'll also add/remove some programs, change programs to newer versions.
All of these combined will introduce new issues.
Then the cycle continues...
There's about 20 or more Rom selection out there that you can choose from. There's gotta be one that is close to your preferences.
A rom that is deemed 100% reliable to others may not be the same to you.

Perhaps then we should deem what is reliable. Firstly, 100%, I know, is too much to ask for, but I want as close as I can get.
So reliability to me means: I can use the phone as it was meant to be used.
This means: no freezing, no need to reset constantly, when someone calls me I can see the caller ID, etc
Simple and easy.
Now is that too much to ask for?

thnx for ur input though
Well there are Roms that are really reliable and very fast. I'm using the same custom ROM for a long time now... I never had to reset, no freezing. It just works.
It's more stable then stock even. Just search in the first 3 pages of the rom thread for the touch x roms.
So no it's not to much to ask. I think this thread should be closed because it's only about whining. Nothing constructive.
EDIT: and that's not the only ROM that is stable. And let me remind you that al cooks are doing it for fun and free willing. As end user you can't complain. You have no right. Asking and making requests is fine, but I'm getting sick of people saying nobody is listening or will respond on questions asked multiple times and awnsered multiple times. The same is for people screaming other people don't make them what they want while they have to knowledge about the subject at all.
This is not ment offensive in any way to anyone.

Well, as I said in the first few post, it is not the fault of the chefs, and I appreciate greatly all their efforts. I never complained about the chefs and their ROMS, it is the system itself. Perhaps I am asking Windows Mobile to be better.
It think it boils down to Microsoft building a system that is not up to par, then HTC trying to hack on their software which creates a system that is is inherently flawed.
I fully support and am grateful for all the custom ROMs out there. At least it gives us more interesting choices.

Wow dude you honestly owe her an apology. You sound like a total douche for ****ing up your phone and firing someone for it.
I'm just saying man, the rest of her life she's going to remember you as a douche for your own mistake.

Can't find what I need :(

I have seriously tried about 15 different ROMs for my tilt2 and I am about to get rid of it because I can't find a good ROM that has everything I need... So, here is what I need...
Youtube working
Link contacts to facebook
Contact information to save when I put it in
Location service
Ability to get hotmail e-mail on the phone
I think that is it...
Are there any ROM's that work like that?? So far everything I have tried is missing at least one of those capabilities :/ I'm getting very disappointed...
Did you not try the phone out or even read what programs work with it before you bought it?
I find it hard to believe that your phone cannot do what you are suggesting it can't do.
I could do all of that (except the location service) with the stock AT&T rom... However, that ROM was extremely slow and aggravating as well...
I also have an HTC Pure - I found a perfect ROM for that phone that does everything I need it to do...
I just can't find a ROM here for the T2 that does everything I need...
I'm not an idiot, I know what this phone is capable of and if I can't find it in a new ROM here that is better than the stock ROM I will get rid of the phone.
Please don't act like I'm stupid because I'm really not... If you're going to be rude, you don't need to post. Thank you
Hey DillyBar, I have to agree with glcK23 on this one. I don’t think he means to be making any assumptions about your intelligence. All the stable ROMs can do the things you need (which are really basic).
When I say “stable” I mean I’m excluding WinMo 6.5.1 ROMs and those with Manila 2.5. There are known issues with those and you either have to live with them or simply don’t use them.
al the roms are doing what u are looking for.... i dont know if you know what u are talking about??? or maybe u are not using TP2???

Froyo Flash use in background -- Ava / OMJ

Something's up that just has me curious. In trying out the new Evo roms, I noticed that while using Dolphin Browser HD and playing a flash video, when I press home or power, in OMJ's rom, the flash video will silence. In the latest AVA rom, the video will continue playing in the background including the sound. So I'm guessing that this is a setting related to Flash that Dolphin doesn't control? Does anybody know how I can change this setting? It would sure be nice to be able to go back and forth once in a while. Two examples of this, (1) One might be watching the annoying orange and need to stop to talk to somebody but continue. (2) One might be watching the Big Brother Live feeds and maybe put the phone in their pocket and use headphones.
Even if the setting isn't so straight forward, perhaps ediging an xml file somewhere on the system, I would really like to know how to change this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
You may be better served if you posted in the threads for the respective rom's you mention rather than create another thread in the development section.

This is actually for pretty much all Froyo ROMs, trust me.
The only solution I've found is to kill the process which is running the Flash video. Really. There's not much else you can do.

You can install this two ways, your choice:

Please let me know if it works ok i dont have this device to test on. MAKE SURE you have a rom back up so you dont have to Odin if issues arise. I'm very confident that it will work fine tho. Thanks
Will try this out in a few hours! Thanks for bringing your mod to the s6 edge. It is awesome!
Your welcome buddy...let me know if it works ok. Thanks
Well i guess its working. 106 downloads and not one ty clicked or one response yes its working. Pretty sad. I knew there was alot of selfish people on the web but this is pathetic. One hudred and six downloads. No respect, no appreciation. .im fighting myself really hard not ro remove the links. Really hard. Change my mind people please.
So sorry for not getting back. I used all day today and it was awesome. I made calls on speaker and watched YouTube and everything was perfect. Really great mod and I will apologize for all the edge users. Can't believe no one said thank you. Pretty sad actually

My remark wasn't targeted towards you stu your a great person. It was for the other 105 people who are using this, who wouldn't even have it if it wasn't for you requesting it and supplying the stock files so i could mod them. Selfishness is part of human nature, but the level of it in this thread is enough to feed all of population in NY. I'll stop my whining now, you get the point. .lol ?
This mod had nothing to with me and everything to do with you. Your skills are crazy and you are the man for coming up with it... THANK YOU!

Right but i would not have done it if it wasn't for you. I dont have this device, therefore can't test the mod, or do i need to have it. I dont like putting things out there that i have not tested. I do this for my own devices and share it, then if anyone requests it i do it for them also. Everyone in between is just lucky. I could have easily pmed it to you and called it a day. So yea it has a lot to do with you and they should click the ty button in every one of your posts just as much as mine buddy?..Have a great week stu...

I just downloaded for my TMob S6 Edge model and about to give this a whirl. I'm a strong Viper advocate and wasn't sure if your mod will happily coexist. Will Nandroid first then get back. Much appreciate your contribution.
EDIT: Killer sound MOD. Works fine with Viper. My thanks again.....
I use it with viper also and it works great but i use the medium sound or even the stock sound if yiu use viper. The loud is a bit too much and it may cut out for some...glad u like it
Well I tried flashing in twrp, no go, the phone reboots into twrp before it flashes anything. Suggestions?
Thank you. This works great!

Not sure what that is. Its working for others so cant be the zip. Try downloading the zip again and make sure you have the newest twrp..
Well i tried it again, could it be because I'm not on a stock rom?

No it should matter. U said its failing in recovery right? Trey extracting the files in the zip and replace yours in system/etc
worked flawless on w8 canadian edge thank you sir makes it really loud
Got it working awesome!
What values were changed in the mixer_paths.xml compared to stock? And what base is the file sourced from? Latest DOI1?

Turns out I'm an idiot. Was a bit loaded on vicodin yesterday and failed to realize that this is the S6 Edge forum, not the S6 Edge+ forum.
Well, it works in that it enables the handset speaker, but in doing so it seems to disable the main (bottom) speaker. So I only have sound coming from the handset speaker. Unfortunately, reverting to stock doesn't seem to have fixed the main speaker problem...so no I have no sound lol. I'll see if I can pull the xml file out of another ROM or something.
Seems like a bad ass idea though.
Edit: Actually, this only seems to be the case with the youtube app. Everything else is working fine as far as I can tell. I'll mess with the app and see if I can figure anything out.
Edit 2: It's not the youtube app, I think maybe it's a certain protocol or something. System sounds and recorded video works fine, for example, but anything I've played from youtube only comes out of the earpiece. On Facebook, some videos play sound through both speakers, some only from the earpiece.
