Not trying to sound anal...
butt if you go to the thread where you downloaded the ROM the developer is sure to see it and others with the same ROM can easily test these things or help out quicker than posting this outside of that thread. sounds like a logcat may determine the issues location for fixing but if it is rom related you need to take it to the dev for a certain fix if one is available.
Just2Cents but Hope it helps

Yeah I had already the same thought..but you need to have 10 posts to be allowed to post in developer's thread..
I hoped arco or somebody else who has more knowledge than me would read it and offer me some support.
Or am I wrong?

Just use the stock rom and your problem is solved.
I never like to using cutom rom, but that's personal preferences.

have you tried other roms, it seems like there is a bug with your present rom, as one of the other poster said, try to inform the dev.

Seems that there are several others who complain about the app Springfield on Google play.
Nevertheless I've got still problems with other apps, that crash by opening them :-\

How can I unroot my G2. Having problems.

Salutations everyone, I've seem to run into a problem in where my Wifi completely stopped working and experiencing a few force closes as well but mostly being that I use Wifi a lot I need this fixed. I am currently running Cyanogenmod 7(7.0.3) if that info even matters and I also have my stock rom on my computer if that helps at all. If anyone could reply back with useful information it would be well appreciated.

Perform a Superwipe+ and install the newest version of CM7, preferably a nightly with good marks.

You don't have to go all the way back to unrooting to fix your problems. Like the other poster said, doing something like a superwipe+ and reflash of a new ROM should easily solve your issue.
Well the reason why I quickly wanted to go the route of unrooting is because I dropped my phone pretty hard(phone is intact still.lol) but it seemed right after the drop my Wifi stopped working so I figured the only way to fix this would be by way of replacement. Anywho, excuse my newbyism but how do I superwipe? Through Clockworkmod? And aren't nightlies not the most stable roms? Thanks in advance..

Update, I flashed back to a previous rom(Cyanogenmod 7.0.2) Wifi started working perfectly again then simply download(F'n throtled.lol) 7.0.3 again and flashed all over again and everything works fine. Thanks for the info.

[Q] MOONRAKER v3.0 - question ?

Hi guys,
I am using this rom 'MOONRAKER v3.0' from several weeks and I can say that is one of the fastest roms I have ever used.
However I have noticed one little bug which is a bit annoying and I cannot find the reason which causing it.
Sometimes when I enter in some app like Titanium backup all letters in this app becomes unreadable with some special characters on the places where letters should be. In order to fix the problem I have to logout from the particular app and to kill the task. Then everything works correctly again.
I have tested a couple of launchers (Apex, Nova, Nemus Launcher) and themes. Also I have tried to deinstall all additional launchers which comes preinstalled with the rom and to use only the default one, but this issue still appears from time to time. I will be very happy, if somebody could give me a hint about it. Thank you very much! :laugh:

Camera saves EXIF date as December 8, 2002

On any CM10 based ROM, when I take a picture, it saves EXIF date as December 8, 2002. This wouldn't be bad except I use a lot of applications that create albums based on that date. Also, Dropbox reads this date instead of the filename or created date.
Does anybody have a solution for this? I've used different camera apps and it still does it.

This has been a problem since cm9 days. I think it was you that brought it up before and it basically fell on deaf ears. All I know is it doesn't do it in stock or Miui only CMx or anything based on CyanogenMod. I don't know if this has any connection but backups done directly in CWM have the same date code where as in Rom Manager it doesn't. Could the camera app and CWM be pulling from the same source?

Yeah, it was me who brought it up and yes, it was ignored. I even submitted a bug to CM and now I can't find the bug in their system. This bug is actually the only thing keeping me from permanently switching to any CM10.1 based ROM.
If anybody has a fix or workaround, please let me know.

Its the date thing plus Bluetooth, YouTube and reboot issues for me that keeps me going back to ICS. BTW I would like for you to try my latest tweaked version of v20f NitroTNT v 2 and see what you think. I believe I have finally solved the lag issue that has been an issue for our phones. Its a culmination of efforts from HO!NO!, lyfkevin and you. Let me know what you think. Also I modified the build.props file so no need to input access point info for it to work on AT&T. Enjoy.
One more thing, wind kernel 3.6 is built in.

cm10.1 is slowly getting better, ricardo had MHL working on 10.1 on his phone, it doesn't work on mine for some reason still trying to figure out why, that was always my main reason for staying on ICS, that and battery life, but the battery life is as good as ICS now, if they get mhl working i won't even need ics anymore. my bluetooth is working fine by the way i think it's fixed 100%, i can even use mine iwth a ps3 controller, car stereo etc without issues. my youtube also works great when i disable HW overlays in dev options (thanks mattman for that tip)
i have only seen mhl work on my phone with mattmans liquid nitro and stock ICS, i imagine it would work on your TNT rom also since its based on stock unless you changed something related to it
any solutions x this problem¿??¿'
Try unbricking your phone. Before it would show 12/8/2002 and after unbrick the correct date and time show up in EXIF data. Using 10.1.2 stable with wind 2.5

I remember that I did some research on this a good while ago on this. If I remember correctly, the code was right, it was something to do with the lib files that can't be decompiled and tweaked.

@mattman86: Have you tried microslav_mm's cm10? I don't know if it's the 3.4 kernel or the LG camera app but dates work fine. The ROM does have its quirks, but very good overall, been running it for the last week no BSOD's or reboots.

Yes, I have. I've tried just about every CM10 based ROM on here and they all have the problem. The CM team won't even look at the buy when I submit it.
I followed the unbrick guide above and now the problem even exists on stock ICS.
been looking around forever for an answer and found an app for acer devices which works on my S2 on PA 3.99. it doesn't completely fix the camera but helps A LOT so i thought i'd share:
it's called Acer EXIF Fixup on the Play Store.
i just created an account to share this info so i can't post a proper link but check it out and hope it helps!

Most Stable AOSP ROM?

Hello,
Looking for the most stable AOSP Jellybean ROM.
Recently have been having trouble with everything - Tasks AOKP, Cyanogen Mod 10.1, you name it.
My issues are mostly front facing camera not working in 3rd party apps (instagram)(causing a restart) and MMS not working (Fido - have correct APNs).
I just need something that works - that is not TW.
Suggestions.
As far as mms goes are you using adblocker? If so that's why it blocks the port mms uses.

This problem seems to be pretty prevalent with all AOSP ROMs. I don't know why some people have the problem and others don't. I just recently found it when I tried to use the front facing camera on Focal (same prob as instagram). Haven't really found any real answers here. Don't know if I'm just looking in the wrong forums or what. I'll try and let you know if I find something.
Carbon is the best!!!
I've been running pac man rom nightlys for a month now and everything seems to be working great.
I've been running on Task's AOKP for months with 0 issues. *knock on wood*
I switched over from CM because it never seemed like they could get something truly stable.
Carbon
Carbon is the best IMHO. As far as the front facing camera, I think that is mostly a problem with the app itself.
I'd have to give Quantum a shout out here. Haven't had a whole lot of problems with it, and Pwn is quick to fix things if necessary. I honestly don't know where he finds the time...
Best ROM threads always turn into "pull it out and see whose is better" threads.

CyanogenMod 10.2 Nightlies Discussion Thread

As the title states, this thread was created for the sole purpose of discussion on CM 10.2 nightlies.
Discuss bugs, ask questions, discuss apps, describe your experience and anything else.
TWRP 2.6.x is confirmed to work for these nightlies.
Cwm 6.0.3.6 is confirmed thanks to polarbe4r
To those new or unaware :
So yesterday as of August 13th, CM has been releasing nightlies for Android 4.3.x for our D2tmo. Go to get.cm and click on D2tmo to download them.
Please don't forget to download the latest GAPPS for 4.3.0 from goo.im/gapps and keep in mind the latest GAPPS function only on the latest 4.3.0 current release.
My experience with it so far : I've had very bad run ins with CM on the d2tmo personally in the past. Audio bugs, bad battery, random bootloops occasionally. I would however like to report the nightlies seem stable, smooth and decent on battery. So far with the exception of Focal the New camera app, I have not noticed a problem, luckily the 4.3 AOSP camera is included in. I recommend sticking to stock kernel for the time being. I tried a couple of third party kernels and had some restarts and graphic bugs. So please, if you have tested the nightlies yet, please leave some feedback for the user and the developers.
Please use the following GAPPS for these 10.2 night lies :

i had an issue with focal already though, both times with HDR turned on. once when moving the focus circle around it froze, then after taking a pic, the image went to gallery sideways and i tried turning the phone or scrolling the images, it froze again
i do not have this issue with 10.2 on my new Nexus 7

prepping my phone for the move to liquid smooth to cm10.2. I am doing a super wipe on it so i want to make sure everything is in order be back with my comments soonish.
I'll hopefully have enough time this weekend to fiddle with my phone and try whatever nightly is up at the time. One thing I'll say right now is that I'll setup everything like I have it right now. Might lose a few mods I recently got but no big deal, all reversible. I hope there's no problems restoring from 4.3 to a 4.2.2 CWM backup.

You mean your backup is stored on an external SD card?
I had a screen of death while listening to play music and skipping a track with holding the volume up feature.
Dirty Upgraded from Nightly 8-13 to Nightly 8-14. Upgraded Gapps as well. FC'd for the first reboot on Phone (Dialer was not present from 8-13).
Used all day on Dirty Upgrade without issue after a few reboots. Play Store could not update any software and Helium could not take a backup.
Got home and Clean installed 8-14 and Gapps. Zero problems after install on typical applications. Rebooted for Google to Restore Apps from Backup. File Manager can not display /storage/emulated/0 or /storage/emulated/legacy after enabling root mode. Had to use /mnt/shell/emulated/0 and /mnt/shell/emulated/legacy (Yes I know they are the same location, but just for thoroughness I used both).
Using Terminal Emulator you are able to see that /storage/emulated/legacy exists, but /storage/emulated/0 does not.
Code:
su
cd /storage/emulated
ls -a

I was streaming for a couple hours while at work but it only happened once. After the reboot it didn't do it again, so maybe it was a fluke.
