RandomROM Official Issues Thread
This thread was designed for solving problems with the RandomROM Badass Edition
(Sense 3.5) and UltraBadass Edition (Sense 4.1 FULL). This is so my team and I can
address problems quicker and get notified when not on XDA. Thanks to @hollywoodsmokeshow
for his brilliant idea
What to acknowledge before posting (Important!)
Not to convince people not to use my ROM
Not to make up thick ideas on purpose
Not attempt to expose me for some thick idea
Not for fun and thanks
This is a SERIOUS thread
I will keep out as much support as I can, however I'm only available after 7PM (GMT)
Do not be impatient
No Bad Language
Follow ALL XDA rules
Don't be influential

Something about this thread just doesn't sit right with me, I don't know whether its because you've asked this to be a serious thread yet you've titled it "troll out your problems here" or because of brilliant rules such as "don't be influential", nonetheless good luck, I guess this will be helpful for some.

Trying to use the otg for trail camera pics off an sd card. Used "otg helper" and "stick mount" both with same result. Does not see a device to mount. No power to card reader (led indicator on reader). Piggy backed a second standard USB cable to use power from laptop to verif operation. If it worked I was going to get a portable power supply for use in the field.
Anyone been able to use the otg?
Any thought on on why my setup doesn't work?
Suggestions on things to try?

I remember having to enable USB OTG with an app like kernel tuner before running USB OTG helper, maybe that's the case for this ROM

Updated to 1.5.9. Still same issue. The new sd multi mount app on this version dosent even fire up. Error message unfortunately, sd multi mount has stopped. Will tr what Justice suggestted kernal tuner.
Tried a kernal tuner app. Didn't see an option to turn otg on. There is a lot of different things to adj. not gonna fiddle with anything until I know what things do. Do you recommend a specific app? What to look for in the app if its not plainly stated in the app?

Just flash it from recovery with no wipe.
Flashed it, turned otg on in kernal tuner, used otg helper with spliced y cable getting power from an i book. Reader light up hooked to lap top and turns off within a few second of connecting phone. No device detected message.

Just went back threw double checking my self. Found after applying otg on, immediately going back in to those options it was set to off. Tried multiple times with same result.

Can't charge battery. Assuming a problem with compatability. Need to get back to original kernel.

Try just otg as in no y cable n try otg helper. No pc cos hdd failed and no dhd I am the unluckiest person ever. I'm getting a hdd replacement but my dhd isn't back!!!
Seny from my HTC Wildfire S A510e using xda app-developers app
Nope that didn't work either. Tried just otg helper, just stick mount, kernal tuner with both kernel versions, with and without y cable. No device found in all scenarios. Now back to original Random Rom kernel. In kernel tuner with both kernel versions the turn on otg would not stay selected on. With patchas there was a fast charge option I selected to verify that a selection would stay as requested, which it did.
Does it hurt the phone to be flashing multiple packages?
Just changed plans and now i can text. Was just emailing before. I can recieve texts but camt send any.essage status "pending". So far after
2 hrs with at they dont know whats going on. Just thought i would ask if there was somthing i turned on (text blocking) that i dont rember and cant find within the rom.
Thanks
Got this from att yesterday.

I've got and old DInc2 now that I don't use because I've got my Galaxy Nexus, but I thought I'd convert it to like a pmp kind of thing. There's always airplane mode and wifi, but I was wondering if there are any ROMs out there designed for just using it for media? I looked around a bit but I didn't find anything relevant because im not sure exactly what to search for, but I just want a simple set up to basically just use wifi and put media on it.
Thanks for any help.

This is an interesting idea. However I highly doubt that you would find anything like that.
But most sense 3/3.5 ROMs ask you if your going to use this as a phone, or just for wifi in the setup. Mabye you could check those out.

The TSM UKB ROM (v & x) has beats audio with it
Hasta la vista, baby
There are a few roms for the Eris like this. They started popping up when everyone started upgrading to different phones. I think the devs just removed the files for cellular connection. On this phone I don't see any reason that you would need to remove them since we aren't short on internal space like that phone is. Just find a rom you like and don't activate the phone then turn off mobile networks in the settings. You can then use it like a pmp or a very small tablet :good:

Does that make it so it doesn't search for networks though? I just don't want to waste battery on that, its already disappointing enough. Currently I just have the no data over mobile network box checked, and the WiFi network I have access to right now is pretty flaky, so I'm not sure where some of my network problems are coming from.
I'm not sure if that would stop it from searching for 1x (the voice network) but it would stop from searching for 3g which uses more battery than 1x. I'll grab a link for one of the Eris rooms for you. You could pm the dev and ask him what files he removed.

I found a script that disables the radio, but keeps wifi running, without having to activate airplane mode every boot and then turn wifi back on. Seems to be working well so far.

I used my Inc2 as a WiFi-only phone with GrooveIP for about a month. With mobile data turned off and WiFi turned on, I could leave the phone on for over 48 hours without the battery dying.
On my Infuse, there were always several issues with ported ROMs. There would be an insanely annoying bug where you would have no audio on the first call after a boot. They also (at least on my phone) always messed up when I entered a PIN longer than 4 numbers. It would just say "Incorrect PIN" even though it was correct.
So before I start sharing more lonely stories, do ports work fine on this phone?

I haven't stuck with anything except CleanROM but the only reason is because I use a lot of TouchWiz features. I've tried most of the other ROMs and there weren't any bugs in any of them (that I noticed). They all seemed to work perfect. I've flashed many ROMs and never seen so many that just seemed to work right out of the box. The best advice I can say is find one you wanna try, make a full backup, and try it out.
ported criskelo rom v6
im not sure why I am not able to access data thru my note 2. ive done everything that madmack has posted and I am still unable to use data other than wifi
I came from infuse too. I remember that bug. Paranoid and cm10 dont fully utilize the s pen. It loses page buddy and hover pointer. But it is super fast. I bought this phone for the full feature. So only full ports seem fine. What features do you care to lose or not.

Well, hang me if I'm wrong, but I haven't been able to find an existing, relevant thread;
I have a 32x24mm class 4 SD card that, obviously, won't fit in my Arc. I'd like to be able to connect and use it on the device nonetheless, so I've hooked up a SD reader with USB, to a female USB/male micro USB cable, which then plugs into my phone's micro USB port. All goes well and the SD reader's light goes on, indicating it is functioning.
But for the life of me, I can't seem to find out how to actually access it from the phone. There's no relevant notification on the task bar, nor is there a directory I can access it through. Every thread I come across about an 'external SD card' invariably ends up being about the micro SD -inside- the phone, so that's no help.
Updated to the latest version earlier today, and have jiggled every cable. Every. Single. Cable.
Is it even possible to use an external SD card reader with the phone? I would be much obliged if someone could tell me what to jiggle.
Im pretty sure you need to install a kernel that has USB OTG supported.
Someone please elaborate lol i could be wrong
What ROM/Kernel combination are you using?
And if I am not mistaken, only some file explorer apps support USB OTG. Unfortunately, I cannot remember any at the moment.

Yeah, that seems to be it, on further investigation. I assumed the arc supported OTG out of the box, as it were. Most, if not all other phones seem to do, so that's probably it. I'm in the middle of aquiring an appropriate kernel and such, and I'll pop back in once it's done and tell y'all if it works.
Thanks.

What ROM and kernel are you using currently? We cannot help you if you do not share information with us.
I did this once, I had all my music on a usb memory stick and plugged in into my phone which then plugged into my car audio.
This was a while ago though but I do remember my phone getting distubingly hot!
I also think i remember reading that prolonged use of this can cause damage, ill have a look now.

Ok so as for mod request, here is the thread. If you have any question please post it here.
Remember it's my first work so i can't do miracles.
The main things i'm looking at right now are:
- battery life
- shortcut for usb storage
If you have any idea/suggestion it's all welcome!
about the battery life
the z launcher is eating the battery no doubt
i've used xperia launchers before and they can be really battery hungry
just my two cents
usb connection does not work

It does work, you need to enable mass storage from settings. The shortcut in status bar is a feature of cm and aosp I guess. I'm looking for a short cut though

Secondly I am having problems in accessing my SD card for media transfers. I have followed your instructions and have done the following:
1) Connected USB
2) USB debgging Mode activated
3) Went to Storage in settings
but there is no option to enable SD card there jux statistics on my internal and external storage. Please advise as I do not wish to get rid of this beautifull ROM
At storage settings press recent apps hardware button

It took me a while, but I realized that my phone isn't detected properly when I plug into my computer on this rom. Because of this, I also cannot reverse tether, which is quite a deal breaker because I only have H+ or lower in my apartment and there is no wifi here. I read this particular comment in the thread:
"Search for USB Mass Storage Enabler in the Play Store. This will at least allow your external SD card to show up with out any changes. I believe they are working on fixing MTP."
I'd like to try this, but I restored back to Jedi rom and don't have time to reflash right now. Can someone please test it and tell me if you can reverse tether using that app on the Google Edition rom? Thanks

If you read the description of that app that has been mentioned to you, you wouldn't question. You can't see your external or internal drive is because of the Fast Charge option built in the Kernel. James is working on a way around. That app was mentioned for the people who wanted to transfer items back and forth between their phone and computer not for tethering.
Flash KT kernel, i believe that fixes it...if not send me a message will send you the other kernel just dont have link to it right now.
