After installing a custom ROM on my Arc S, my MMS messages and GPS no longer works this happened on both CM9 and MIUIv4, currently I'm running MIUI and could really do with a fix. Could someone please tell me if they're having similar problems. Also what system apps are responsible incase i have stupidly uninstalled something i shouldn't, Cheers

[Q] DoomLord's ICS rom probelm(or my phone)

I installed Doomlord's ICS rom on my Arc S.. for some reason that is driving me nuts, my phone randomly reboots by itself.. sometimes within a few minutes.
Is there a step to fix this? (or troubleshoot this)
Is anyone encountering the same problem? I was starting to think that there is a problem with my hardware and not the OS though it was working fine when I was still on the stock rom.
thanks!

Doomlord ICS ROM which based on sony ics alpha rom have random reboot problems..
The ics rom which based on Sony Ics beta rom don't have random reboot problem
So it is not hardware problem but OS Problem : D
If you want use ics rom, you have to flash rom which based on Sony ICS beta
I got mine from this url

[Q] Gingerbread MIUI?

Is there a recent MIUI based on GB, or are they all on ICS now?
Most recent good gb is swipers 2.3.2b1. So yes all newer builds are ICS
I rooted my EVO 4g 2 weeks ago and tried different roms since then. I liked the MIUI roms, but the ICS base MIUI roms are not stable in my phone. I looked all over the web for a stable MIUI GB rom, but no luck. I read in several thread that MIUI 2.3.23 buit by swiper is the most stable, but all the links are unavailable. There was a post on just 2nd about a miui 2.3.7 ultimate rom, but that link is also unavailable. Need help to find a stable MIUI GB rom. Please advice!!
Check my devhost in my signature. I have it in there
Here is the link for the 2.3.7 from China:
http://115.com/file/c25n0gb8#
Click on the big green button.
I haven't flashed it yet, but will let you know...
FWIW, the latest ICS version from MIUI.us (2.6.15) with Mason I kernel seems quite fast and stable so far...

I downloaded the MIUI 2.3.2 b1 by everything was solid except no preview on the FFC.
Now trying the dianXin OS. Its very good, but i have the following issues: some apps still in Chinese, weather widget does not recognize US cities (lol! should get e different widget), can't find a place to change APN to fix mms issue, asking me to update the OS OTA (not sure if i should do this cuz everything might be in chinese)!! I am searching for more updates about this rom. If you know something on top of your head please guide me to the right direction
Thanks a lot for your help.
You have to lower the resolution for the FFC preview

Thanks again. That took care of the FFC issue.
Using the 2.3.2 build since yesterday. Every thing is working now except mms. i can get it, but can send it. usually i have to change the mms apn to mm.myboostmobile.com, but that option is not avaiable in this. Any advice?
I did a google search for this issue and tried to look through the thread, but looks like its working for everyone!! Wonder what did i do wrong!
Not sure. I use Go SMS and that has always worked.
Does anyone know the difference between Tyzing's & lithium76's MIUI builds?
(FWIW, Tyzing's seems to run smoother on my phone.)
thanks

CM9 for LU6200

freefall12 already wrote info's about the CM9 version for LU6200 in the thread call record empty on 404 stock.
I really think we need an own thread for this.
http://bbs.fengbao.com/thread-997843-1-1.html
I downloaded and flashed it today and must say, very impressive.
But there are bugs no question, not suitable for daily usage now.
Guess if the nightly-time is over that could be a very good ROM.
Some issues i found for the short time i had it:
- Camera cant connect (closes with FC)
- Videoplayer freezes
But things i really like is the design and the languages where i can choose from.
One question, dont know if someone have a solution. Since i had to flash the engineer version of ICS to get root, is it possible to just flash the ICS and after that CM9 with root?
Yes, base on the engineer KDZ, not ICS KDZ.
In fact just need the bootloader based on engineer version.
i'm not sure what you want. but you can easily go back to official ICS using CWM recovery,without reflashing the whole kdz or the other way around. is that what you're asking for ?
---------- Post added at 01:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:02 PM ----------
jxxhwy, i'm curious about what changes you've made to the CM9 kernel? thanks for the great work!
P930 github link
device:https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_lge_p930
930 kernel:https://github.com/CyanogenMod/lge-kernel-iproj
based on the above compiled, modify some scripts files and kernel source file。
you just made some modifications to the kernel and no changes to the ROM? you compiled it on ubuntu 12.04 ? i'd be grateful if you elaborate!
CM9 is still not fix vibration & 3G.

No, sorry if i didn't make it clear enough... if i go back to stock ICS, on the first LG bootscreen it still shows "engineer version".
Because i had to flash the engineer version (KDZ) before i flashed the ICS in order to get root and CWM after that.
So how does it work if i come from GB 2.3 to CM9... just flash the ROM in CWM?

if you upgrade to CM9 from GB,you will need to flash engineer version's mmcblk0p7 and ICS cwm recovery first.otherwise your phone probably will not boot and recovery will not work.that's because the mmcblk0p7 part is responsible for bootstrapping. hope i made myself understood!
OMG.. I thought CM9 would never come.. A Korean guy is also porting the AOKP to LU6200 and heard it's also in quite usable state. I'm restarting my phone to make a nand backup.

Thanks for the info! Do you have any link to the AOKP version, or is it not public now?
I really like the CM9, hope soon it will be stable. Right now if i connect via USB there is no dialog appearing, asking me to choose mass storage or any other option. My USB drivers are ok, it also connects without any problem in CWM.
An older version of this CM9 (19.06.2012) didn't have this issue.

No issue with SMS so far, but i'm back to ICS now. If GPRS/DataNetwork would working, i would really use the CM9.
I have no clue about the P930 vibration issue.

Best ROM and kernel for Arc?

Hey all,
I've just bought one of these and I'm waiting for it to arrive.
In the meantime, I'm looking for custom ROMs and kernels to use but there are just so many.
The reason I bought one is because I bricked my previous phone. I'm currently using a really old phone and intend to use the Arc as soon as I get it and I probably won't have a lot of time to do testing of my own.
What I'm looking for is a really stable ROM that has good performance and very little bloat installed. As for the kernel, whatever people think is the best will do. I probably won't be overclocking the phone (most likely underclocking) as the main thing I want from my phone is good battery life.
Thanks for any input!
jjHybrid Rom 3.2 and Arcknight kernel 3.3 no overclock.

You have to search and find yourself, what features are important and what not, what do you want to use it for and if you want GB or ICS.

So my phone arrived and it's been updated to 4.1.B.0.587.
The bootloader is locked and I want to keep it that way just because I don't want to mess anything up.
I was wondering am I able to installed the locked bootloader version of JJ's Hybrid ROM 3.2 Stable on 4.1.B.0.587?
Thanks.
PS - I would have asked this on the development thread, but I don't have enough posts to post there.

You must root your phone using this method
Then you can proceed to JJ's Hybrid
best kernel is the stock kernel
and the best rom is the stock rom with all bloatwares manually removed, manually tweaked,manually supercharged,manually installed Mods...

Had been using MIUI (Chi Ver) for a month and then gave up.
JJ's HYBRID ROM v3.2 is good but I had to install the AnyLocale.apk and JAYS_Headset_Control.apk to make it works.
Been using Xperia Ice Cream Pureness (Build 10) with .431 then .587 for a week and love it.
Love them both because of the on screen button.

JJ's and CM9, which one you would like a bit more ?
I did tried several ROMs but never the CM series before :silly:
..
If you don't care about graphical user interface ,defintely JJ hybrid rom is great (fast - compatible with games - has ROM control as well) ,few bugs though like wifi hotspot http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1537717
If you care about having nice user interface with reasonable game performance you can try Jelly sandwich http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1836993 or the Remix http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1884958
For the Kernel i always advice to use stock kernel in order to avoid battery drain issues

Fast,Smooth,Stable ICS Or JellyBean

I am using the stock ROM 2.3.6 on my galaxy gio and I have no problems with it. So if I have to update my phone I would not be leaving my STABLE stock GB to a less STABLE GB. But Updating to an ICS or JB would be good. Most of the Roms Of ICS or JB I have seen are beta(in development) and Buggy with lot of things not working. Is there any Stable,Smooth and Fast ICS or JB Rom on the forum that is not Buggy and works everything on it.
Thanks.
jb isnt stable yet...
use cm9 rc1, all others are based on it...
I have galaxy gio but recently my phone is shutting down itself and restarts. Is there anyway to stop it? My android version is 2.3.4 MUGKG3.
