[Q] CM7 BUG ? :l - Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi again all,
Trust you are doing fine.. Please advise if it is normal when rebooting the phone switches back to ADW launcher (using Go Launcher before switching off) ? And when i set up facebook account in account & sync, when again rebooted, it disappears.. I am using a stable rom, and one last thing, may LED notification never turns green when the battery is fully charged (3 hours charging and powered off).
Please kindly help.. :l
thanks in advance !

About the charging:
What Cwm do you use?

Have you set the launcher to default,check settings/applications and clear the defaults in the launcher apps. Then when you press your home button it should show both launchers and a check box asking you to use as default tick the checkbox and choose the launcher you want to use as default.
Charging light is a known bug and cannot be fixed AFAIK.
Ummm !!! Maybe its fixed in newer cwm ? Not sure.

It was the same issue causing both problems as far as I am aware? (anyone feel free correct me?)
UTID - what does this mean?

To be honest its a bug that I never cared about so never looked into it as my phone is always on and when its charging I'm not interested in anything its doing lol.

Yeah, I always turn mine off to do a full charge if its got to the low battery warning that day - like its in the middle of a calibration due to ROM change atm so I can't even turn it yet today
Glad to see another Manc on here supporting our Red Devils

i think i did read that as well :S not sure why i reposted. probably thought i had a stroke of genius myself but actually i was just reading it lol

Ok if you don't want adw then just delete it but make sure you have the other launcher installed/move to system.
Many ways to remove and add to system if you search.
Option 2 is to just freeze adw using an app eg. Titanium backup/system cleaner etc etc.
UTID

maybe update to go launcher EX, its still free and its good

thank you guys for your favorable replies..
anyone who knows how to fix the account/sync issues ?

so everytime you reboot you fb account get removed from the phone?
dont rebooot lol......only joking. Try deleting the app cache and data for facebook, then uninstalling it and redownloading the most up to date version from the market.
Sounds like something in the ROM isnt holding onto your settings

I've never been able sync facebook contacts etc etc with cm7 like you can on sense but the whole situation changes when on sense. The social networking sync and interface using sense based Rom is perfect.
UTID

If I were you I would definitely flash one of the newer OFFICIAL nighties. I do a lot of switching from sense and cm7 and I use nightly #255 its as stable as the stable and has better features. Just do a fresh install by wiping all data,caches,dalvik from advanced and even do the formats from mounts menu in cwm DON'T WIPE YOUR SDCARD LOL. I think you'll be better off on the nightly mate.

smart bar and hiding apps...after uninstall, their still gone!

so there are a few apps in my drawer that i would like to make disappear...not disable! i downloaded smart bar, because it said it could hide apps, and their hidden alright...and disabled! i quickly uninstalled it and now theyre not showing back up and idk wat to do
grr
on a sidenote, im sure i can get this fixed (i have a nandroid of like 20 minutes before i tried this), but is there a solid option for hiding certain apps in sense?
tia
also, i went to manage applications in hopes to clear the data and theyll reappear...but their not listed. i cleared senses data (because in order for them to take effect, it asked to restart sense) and still no go
starting to get worried guys.
Not sure about Sense but it is a built in function of LauncherPro.

Halp! App Drawer Gone from Dock on CM6 RC2!

I accidentally replace the App Drawer shortcut on my middle dock icon with my cam, how do I get the App Drawer shortcut back? I tried resetting AWD but its still there!
. anyone? .
i did the same. seems to be a new 'feature' of ADW located at Menu -> Settings -> ADW -> UI Settings -> Main Dock Style
i was able to get the desired center icon back by toggling to a 3 button bar then back to a 5 button bar. you could also try restoring a prior adw backup.

the issue is I'm already using 5 button layout so when i change to 3 and then back to 5 it does not give me any empty slots because there all use up. I do not want to do a nandroid backup for something as silly as this.. theres gotta be a easier way.
Isn't there a App Drawer shortcut Icon I can put on homescreen and then drag to middle dock icon?
Long press on your home screen, custom shortcut, pick your activity, launcher actions, open close app drawer, okay.
Drop it where ever you want.

I bet you did it while trying to trash a shortcut , instinctively the drag goes to the old location of the trash can. Happened to me twice and was able to correct it like neckface described it.

OMG thanks dude, was showing a friend my phone and trying to get him to go with android, and accidently did that, and tried all ADW settings and still couldn't fix it...
thanks again man, I thought I was gonna have to do all those back-ups and stuff.

ICS Issues....

Well since I don't have enough posts it won't let me post in the Dev section...ugh....anyway, I just wiped and flashed MazWoz-EVO ICS ROM BETA 4 and had to do it a few times because it kept screwing up after I would restore my apps and data via Titanium. I figured since this was ICS and my previous was Gingerbread there were some issues so I didn't restore data this last time and thought all was well.
I can't seem to get the browser to work and I tried Chrome Beta but I already read on the forum that is not working right with this ROM so I'll try something different. But I heard the ICS Browser is really good so I want to try it! Someone else posted the same issue but no response yet:
slikgman: My browser stopped working and i don't know when and why. I keep getting the message "unfortunately, browser stopped working" i am now using Dolphin HD browser. I've tried using the reboot and ROM manager permission fix to correct the problem.

Then I just went to unlock the phone a minute ago and my background showed up but no icons and none of the home buttons did anything. I could scroll between all the home screens but they were all blank except for my background! Hmmm...maybe I tried ICS too soon...though people on the Dev forum seem to be having a lot of luck with this ROM
Can't really help, but sounds like a bad install. I've been running this ROM for 2 weeks with no issues other than what is stated in OP.

Can I just re-flash the zip or will it force me to wipe again? I just got some of my main apps up and going so I hate to wipe for the third time in the last 12 hours...lol
Also, do you know how to change the lock screen options? I use Handcent for messaging and want to swap out the standard "slide up" to go to Handcent instead of Messaging. I can't figure out how to edit this for the life of me!
Until you've gotten a good install I would always wipe a couple times per the instructions in the OP.
Also, when changing the lock screen icons there is a trick to it. It's discussed many times over in the OP.
Basically (going from memory since I am not running the rom at the moment) you go to the lockscreen changer, if you want to add weather only you use the rosie utility. Otherwise you have to use the other utility option that is there. You can add/change whatever icons you want by tapping the icon and selecting the replacement. The icons on this screen may not update. Once you close the utility the icons and shortcuts should be as you desire. If you go back in it will reset and you will have to do the process over again.

Oops, i just realized my response was for "The Express..." rom shortcuts. Sorry about that!
So to change lockscreen shortcuts go to Apps -> Evervolv toolbox -> Lockscreen -> Lockscreen style -> Custom Mapping -> App shortcut -> Applications....and so on.

I was gonna say! Thanks that's exactly what I needed!
Oh FYI...I sort of figured out the browser issue. All I had to do was go into my Manage Apps, go to Browser and did a Force Stop, Clear Data, and Clear Cache and then went to try it again and it has worked fine since! Weird....
Also, does anyone know where the Car Dock settings are for ICS? I'd like to change the setting to not go into Car Dock mode when docked, since it leaves the phone lit up the whole time. Some ROMs have that option and some don't, but I'd like to know if ICS has that built in and how I get to it.
Another weird thing about this ROM....
If I long press on the home screen to add an app icon, I get the usual list (Apps, Shortcuts, Widgets and Wallpapers) plus choice for Nova Actions. I can add shortcuts and widgets just fine but when I click Apps, it will show me my list of apps but when I select an app it just opens the app! It doesn't add the icon to my home screen! Annoying even though I can still add it there by long pressing the app itself.

When doing this method when you get to the app hold it don't tap it.

APEX launcher

Hello i flashed elite ICS ROM with elite Kernel ..with default apex lancher..i really like the launcher but when i for example go to apex settings/drawer settings and i change drawer animation from fly in/out to none ...i touch home ... and when i open up my drawer the effect is still there when i look again to setting effect is chosen the same with other functions could something block my launcher or smg?

By the way the EliteRom already includes the Kernel so need to flash both unless the kernel is newer than the Rom.
Trying to replicate what you did, I went into drawer setting, selected none then hit the back arrow to back out to the home screen which was blank for a moment (I guess cuz the UI was restarting) and I clicked on the drawer icon and no animation occurred.
So it might be that you may need to press back instead of home to save the settings (home might be treated as a cancel & exit).
EDIT: Though if I go back and change it back to fly in/out, and hit the home button instead of back, I get the same blank pause, and animation returns. If I set none, and 'home' button again, blank pause, and no animation. So it seems to be working for me regardless if I use the back button or home.
What version of EliteMod are you using, and are you using any customizations?
actually i think that the kernel is bundled ... so you dont need to install it ... and to my problem a tried ..and still the same ... everything disappear from my screen ...and then it pops up i click to my app drawer and effect is back
i am using newest version
no customization
Go into Apex Settings -> About Apex Launcher and see what version you have.
I'm on 1.2.4 , if you're earlier click on the "Check for update now" and apply it, as I've done that in the past.
By the way are you using a DataSwap mod he provides (or sd swap if not that)? (and in that light, are you using an sd-ext partition).

If you hold the recent apps it will bring up an option for system settings, if you go to your settings that way it will show you the settings in tab form.
Yes that settings go to the rigt one.. But if i click shortcut or in app driver settings gies to list one

Hi! This is because LG actually put in 2 different settings apps, one in tab view and the other in list view. You can see this when you change the view for settings in the upper right conrner of the settings app and then look at your recent apps. The thing is that nova launcher, and also a lot of other launchers (Google Now Laucher for example), only have the listed-view settings app in their app drawer. You can get to the tabbed view, as mentioned above, by holding your recents button and selecting settings from there or you can hit the settings button in the upper right corner of your notification pull down tray..
Ohh so thats why...thank you

I just noticed that when using noval launcher ,theres a slight delay after pressing apps like messaging , phone, gallery to launch. After trying back stock launcher, they kind off open instantly. Anyone experience that too ?
Yes i noticed too.
sent from me. :]
This'll help
I whipped this up in tasker. It'll make a shortcut (available in app drawer) to get to the tabbed settings... First run is a little slow to load. You can put it wherever you want (folder, desktop etc)
This helped me alot. I have the LG G Stylo/Rooted/Nova Prime. Setup is great and I keep it with a stock look.
