Hello,
I detected the following systematic problems of cm9..11
1.) Skype cannot be started at all. It does not even react on a click of its icon. And no error message appears.
2.) the akku load status is shown incorrect during load process. E.g. after 4 hours load it shows 37% instead of true 100% (which is shown after reboot).
3.) The wonderful app 'lgCamera' runs very slow and jerky. This was fine in Android 2.x versions.
4.) the FM radio app for the WFS radio tuner (no internet radio!). How can I find it (and flash it into the system folder as a system app)?
I suppose that everybody can confirm my problems!?...
Are those already known by the development team? Cause I wonder that they are not fixed in ALL CyanogenMod versions yet!
Will there be a chance to expect their fix soon?...
5.) Furtheron I have big compatibility problems when flashing cm9..cm11 ROMs and others. Error message: "cannot load volume /misc. Can't partition non-vfat: /storage (vfat)". For nearly each ROM I have to change the recovery. Currently I change between the following recoverys (one of them allways works):
twrp-2.2.2.0, twrp-2.7.1.0, Phil-Z 6.43.7, cwm-5.0.2.8, cwm-6.0.5.3. Nobody else having that problem?...
Is there any recovery version that can read all 'formats' of zip files?...
Will there be compatibiliy at least at the backup files between all of them?...
Thank you VERY much for a quick help!
1.) not compatible anymore, say Thanks to Skype
2.) This is probably problem with battery not reading voltage correct anymore on charger (happens) for me on all roms even stock. (After 100000 of flashes and almost 3years old down sucked battery
3) ics and up isn't made for this phone, slow downs and other incompatibility can happen.
4) There is a solution called spiritfm(free) Google it, you will find the xda thread.
5) twrp 2.2.2.0 and cwm 5 is working on all ROMs beside newer kk builds (needs recovery compiled with TLS support, newest ones available)
Greetings Kevin
Hallo Kevin,
I am so glad that you answer! Thank you very much!!
to 1.) Yes, I realised meanwhile that Skype 4 ist still running fine. So the reason why the new Skype 5 version does not work on Wildfire S (or even on all CM versions of all devices??) you don't know!?...
to 2.) So this is a general Andrid 4.x problem of Wildfire S device only?... (cause e.g. on Galaxy S4 stock (of my girl-friend) it works fine!...
to 4.) Thank you. I installed this free version '0918fr.apk' but I get the error message (su rights confirmed): "Error: No FM accessible. SU: 0 Fm:BC2 SU:0 Bt:3 Ht:0 Mo:BCU". It does not seem to be compatible although I have read everywhere that it should work. Is this maybe antoo old version? Or what can be the reason?...
to 5.) So I used newer version 'cwm-6.0.5.3' and 'twrp-2.7.1.0', as I mentioned, but then these versions do not support older version than KK. E.g. 'CronMod-INT2EXT+_signed.zip'. This is the problem. Any solution?...
Is TLS ment as 'Thread-local storage'?...
Another short request:
a) Video recording with cm11 on Wildfire S works now without any patch. But if I record a video longer than about 5 seconds and I want to watch it directly after having stopped recording (timeframe about 7 seconds) then the camera app crashes. Can you confirm that on Wildfire S? What can be the reason?...
If Olivier's camera patch will help here as well I have not tested yet...
b) Management of Launcher and App screen is somehow circumstancial or not even possible. This is why the option 'Homescreen' is missing in 'Personalization' ('cm-11-20140816-Nightly') although the related screenshots of cm11 in XDA show this option!! E.g. App icons cannot be sorted alphabetically or cannot be manually moved within the screen. Or the home panel is the most left one instead of the middle one. Etc.
Any reason why the option 'Homescreen' was deleted (in XDA cm11 screenshots for Wildfire S still show it!! S. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2735775 )?...
c) CM11 OTA update suggests me 'cm-11.0.0-RC9' as the first in the list. Is this really more actual than the installed 'cm-11-20140816-Nightly' (version 11.0-20140816) ?...
d) In this version the Email system app is missing. Why?
Any zip to flash it anywhere? Or do I have to use one of the market?...
e) No warm reboot option available anymore in cm versions?...
Thanks for your help again, Kevin!
Many greetings, Falk
to 5.) I could solve that problem meanwhile by myself. I downloaded a modified version of cwm 6.0.5.3 here:
http://click.xda-developers.com/api...5.0] - Post #52 - XDA Forum&txt=the new build
But I still do not know what was modified! You?...
6.) you forgot the ever present mobile data bug at least for cm9 and cm10. Which no1 evens bothers to mention

Because it does not exist? I never faced any bug like that.

oh, its super present .
It was a "common" problem in cm9, cm10 based roms, at least judging from the various threads dating back to 2013. And as I discovered yesterday its also present in CM11 RC9 for me.
Occurence of the bug is very random and seems to be bound to certain providers which makes it hard to debug/fix i guess.
Sadly, from what I've read "deal with it and toggle airplane mode when you need mobile data" or "install cm7" are the ways to handle this bug.

Scoot CyanogenMod 7.1.0 RLS3
This is a build I have compiled from the official CyanogenMod source files and adapted for Kaiser/Vogue. Feel free to give it a go at your own risk!
Well, it still isn't quite as snappy as Froyo and the camera still doesn't work properly but it's probably about as fast as Gingerbread will get on our devices. I'm bound to have messed a few things up but i'll continue to work on it when I get time
All the usual things are working as far as i know, GPS works fine for me but the camera is as always not fully functional.
All of this is thanks to the guys working on the CyanogenMod roms and of course, none of this would work without all the hard work on the kernel so big thanks to dzo, vilord, l1q1d etc...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RLS 1:
Initial Release
Includes most of the Google Apps including Maps, Gmail etc..
Latest Market is included
RLS2:
Built from the latest 7.0.2 source
Optimised EGL for our devices
Updated Market
LDPI and PNG optimisations to save space & increase speed
ADW Launcher updated
Loads of tweaks and status bar changes
Updated RIL lib
Loads of fixes and optimisations
**I recommend leaving the phone for 5 minutes after installing to sort itself out and cache apps etc...**
RLS3:
I can't really be bothered to list all of the changes, there are quite a few but I just compile the thing, the changes are in the CyanogenMod repository. I have included the updated RIL and all of the Google Apps are up to date. The camera is still ****e but that's a driver issue. This release hasn't been heavily tested as I don't use my Kaiser as a main phone anymore So i'm sure you will find issues in which case we can sort them out as and when. Enjoy!

This is an alpha and still needs a fair bit of work to get it running to it's full potential but you can get an idea of what it will be like. Feel free to report any bugs that you find, by this i mean application crashes and things that don't work or look correct. I already know the system can hang and it isn't as fast a froyo
I have had to make a LOT of modifications for this to work, some of which may affect battery life but i haven't tested it for long enough to know so let me know how it goes. I'm bound to have messed a few things up but i'll continue to work on it when i get time

woot...gonna give it shot ... hoping for not getting same data/wifi reboots
woow, million thanks to you scooter
finally a gingerbread based build for our kaiser
btw, which kernel do you suggest for this build?
thanks in advance
Hmm for some reason I cannot boot to android the phone has been stuck in boot loop for the last 15 minutes. I have an app.img file with about 80 applications so this might be a problem I'll try to boot it without the app.img. Both data and system on sd card imgs + latest '25 kernel.
Edit.
Ok I have removed the apps.img and it still doesn't boot.
I have noticed that there have only been modules for '32 kernel included in the build. Should it work with '25 kernel with proper modules added?
I'll wait for All Languages version to test it with the new kernel.
1. this was my first attempt to instal android on nand.. noob here ;P
downloaded kernel VOGUIMG-320-FROYO-01-16-11.NBH, then changed with editor to kaiser and painel 2. Install occured ok.... but phone isn't working.. "no service".
2. I do i see my batery status? can only see that bar on the top but don't no accurate bat status in %.
3. after this install can i install another another version overwrithing this one? for example now the phone isn't working so i want to change to another version of android can i simply put another "androidinstal.tar" in andboot folder and install?
Thanks and sorry for this noob questions...

YES! you can
To view Battery percentage, you need to set that in Cyanogenmod Settings (correct me if I'm wrong here since its been ages when I used CM build)
Yes, you can do that it's actually very simple. Just remember to edit your .nbh before every install if you are changing versions (donut, froyo, eclair).
Cheers. Welcome to Android world

Try a .32 kernel, also i have only tested it on NAND so it may be an issue with Haret. To be honest we're lucky it works with the .32 kernel so i expect problems with the .25 kernel. Sorry

I recommend using the latest .32 kernel you can find, either one that L1q1d has compiled or one from Clemsyn's thread You can find the latest kernel here: http://androidhtc.git.sourceforge.n...7c0bf5edc4f5c6d64ce4df29254e8332ce26b;hb=HEAD
Well have installed 6.1 and phone now works... =)
Will wait until a new version of this one to come out and then try again...
- Already found how to show percentage in bar status thanks dark_prince.
- Thanks for advice slimas, to edit .nbh do i need to reinstall kernel? and can i reinstall without mess up with previous android install or do i need to install again android?
- Some bugs that occurred to me .. sometimes bar on the bottom disappear can't access apps... ; some freezing sometimes, do you guys recommend to overlock? if so how to do it? Weather widget can't find info too lol not a serious prob...
I'm reading forum and these are some questions i couldn't find answer, for now i think that's all.. i'm enjoying android on kaiser think this is the time i will change forever...
thanks for fast feedback any good tips are welcome ;P

The bar at the bottom of the scrren can disappear if you swipe down on the screen, it is a bit random but is a flaw in ADW launcher. To get it back you need to press the 'menu' button and go to 'settings' then go to 'ADW Settings, UI Settings and untick 'Dockbar'. Re-select 'Dockbar' and exit settings and it should be back I expect some freezing, it is still under heavy development and our devices are quite limited hardware wise so there won't be any miracles yet I overclock my Kaiser to 500Hz using ATools, a lot of people don't recommend it but it is what i have always done and i have never had any problems, it speeds the phone up a fair amount. Just tick the option when editing your NBH. The phone obviously needs to be connected to data or wifi for weather widget to get location information, i just tried it with wifi and it worked ok, there may be an issue with data though, i'll look into it Thanks for testing.
CAMERA
camera is not working properly but it looks awesome i will try to apply the update from previous cm to see if this will work

after applying the update android can`t start so i am going reinstall it
I have tried the Kitkat ROM of Evervolv and I want to report my experience.
You can find the ROM here:
http://nikez.nu/Download.php?getFile=dlc/ev_bravo-4.0.0p2-turba.zip
I found the ROM very reliable. No crash no reboot no SOD. There are 2 main bug:
1) The hotspot doesn't work.
To fix this problem is sufficient to replace the file hostapd and hostapd_cli with those in this ZIP:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2434441&d=1386246859
as reported here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=48161953&postcount=128
2) The browser has flickering screen. You can disable it from Settings->Apps->All->Browser and try another browser. I use Opera because is lightweight and usable. Try it out: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.opera.browser
Without a2sd the system is very fast and fluent. If you want to use it would suggest to use at least a Class 10 sd card otherwise the app loading and even the screen unlock can take more than 5 seconds.
If you want to install a2sd DO NOT put the dalvik cache on the sd card unless you have a very fast sd card. Otherwise this will slow down your phone. I've installed 15 / 20 app and I have about 30 MB left on the internal storage, so I think this is enough. To install app data only to sd card install the script in this way:
a2sd install
N
Y
Y
There is a feature that i liked of the previous Evervolv JB and was the home screen rotation. In this ROM there isn't such feature. In my opinion is very frustrating to have the screen rotated back to the portrait mode when in landscape mode i press the home key. To enable home screen rotation I installed Nova Launcher app and enabled screen rotation by: Nova Settings -> Look and feel -> Screen Orientation -> Auto Rotate
Thank you again to the Evervolv Team.
It's 2 week that I installed this ROM and still no problems.
The olny thing I noticed sometime is a delay in the screen power on when you want to hang up a call. The screen remains black for 3-4 seconds and then if you press the power button again it work. I think this could depend on the number of the apps opened on the phone indeed this doesn't happen every time.
VPN - Another Kitkat bug with evervolv?
Hi,
currently I'm running the ev nightly-2013-12-15. Since yesterday I tried to activate a VPN connection into my home lan (connected with an AVM Router). It does NOT work. While the "internal" VPN Software does not tell me some interesting information a second try with VPNCilla shows:
--- cut here ---
Error on establish:
command '693 interface fwmark rule add tun0'
failed with '400 693 Failed to add fwmark rule (File exists)'
Possible reason: invalid server parameter or TUN device unavailable
---cut here ---
With this error message I find in google some information about a VPN problem in 4.4. BUT: my wife's brand new nexus 5 with Kitkat connects without trouble immediately with the same login data.
So what's the problem with ev here?
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance
I have never tested VPN with android though I had problems getting hotspot to work. I had to substitute the hostapd and hostapd_cli file to fix the problem (I posted how to achieve it in the previous post).
Have you tried the turba release ? Maybe the problem is related to a nightly bug.
However It is true that the Nexus 5 has a 4.4 too but the kernel version is different. The evervolv version run with the 2.6.37 kernel version because probably the driver (or kernel modules) of the HTC desire are not available for the new kernel version 3.x.x that is the version used for Nexus 5 and other official release.
So different hardware and software can lead to different behavior of the software.
The only thing that come into my mind is to try with a shell (adb shell) to manually create a VPN connection to see what specific errors are showed up.
I think this is a great rom, which runs very smoothly.
I have currently installed the ev_bravo-nightly-2014.01.22-squished.zip from yesterday on my desire.
But I have a problem using Wifi connection. At first it worked, but now Wifi wont turn on. It also says MAC-Adress is unavailable. What I have done was to delete the app2sd script from init.d and to install Int2ExtV2 (runs perfectly). I don't know if this can cause the interference? I have not made any other changes.
It would be great if anybody knew, how to fix it.
I have not tried connecting to a VPN so far.

Hi,
I'm running Nikez's 4.0.0p2 version and it's great! No JB rom is such stable and fast. For me, there are no bugs, but I don't use hotspot feature. Is it worth to upgrade to nightly versions? I'll maybe wait until Nikez releases next version with stable 3.0 kernel .
Do MMS work?
Sent from my HTC Desire using xda app-developers app
I haven't already tried the new nightly but I guess that it is not as stable as the 4.0.0p2. I prefer stable ROMs because I use my Desire daily. This is the most stable and faster ROM I found among Evervolv ROMs. So I would suggest you to keep the 4.0.0p2 unless you have a blocking problem with this ROM.

For quimbexa :
I've tried two times but the screen only show "SENDING...". I waited for 2 hour and then i deleted the messages. So this feature could be buggy.
Why do you need this feature ? Using whatsapp or similar app it's faster and cheapest than using MMS today.

Hi,
I am really full of compliments about the good work of some guys that have done a good job in building the actual CyanogenMod versions for Wildfire S.
Thank you sooo much!!
But what I currently do not completly understand...
Why are most of the CM users really happy about version 10.2 or version 11.0 (like orig. CyanogenMod or WFSY) when those versions - last version of CM 9.2.2 included - do not even have GooglePlay/PlayStore and Data2SD (or Link2SD) installed?...
The last (and obviously most advanced CM version) CM9 (alpha9, v.9.2.2) would already be a wonderful solution for the WFS phone (I tested it!!) and it is said to be nearly finished (even video camera is working now at the version of Olivier) BUT both mentioned, absolutly necessary components are missing (and nobody mentioned it yet). Or what can I do with a phone where I cannot install new apps at all?..
So what is it that I misunderstand?...
I would be very happy if anybody could inform me about how I can find a version that has a complete set of system apps or how/where I can find both missing components to complete them by myself. (and even more happy if the cyanogenmod update function would still find some updates)
Otherwise I would guess that not any of the existing CM-based versions for Wildfire S can be used at all...
Should all the past work for creating a CM version (Android 4.x !!) for the (unfortunately!) one and only COMPACT smartphone on the world, 'Wildfire S' (I must admit, it is in fact!!) should have been completly in vain ???... I couldn't believe it.
Thank you guys very much for your nice explanations!
All the best to this wonderful community,
from Falk

Hi Olivier,
many thanks for your tip. You did not mention the point directly but I could answer most of my questions by mayself then.
Now I installed CM9 'cm-9-20140720-Olivier-marvel' together with 'CronMod-INT2EXT+_signed'. Works pretty fine!
Only little questions have been left now...
1.) How can I sort my app icons by subjects/folders (s. HTC Sense)? This Trebuchet launcher does not seem to support anything like that. If there is no chance, which launcher would you suggest instead?
2.) There is no really 'useful' version of CM10 or CM11 for WFS yet, is there? I couldn't find. Do you think there will be s.o. still working for a final version next time?... (why is Wildfire but not Wildfire S an official CM development?)
2b.) At your current version CM9, is there any problem left that should still be fixed? Everything works fine here yet...
3.) Therefore the OTA updater for CM would be a fine feature like in CM9 vers. 9.1.0 (but no updates found yet!). But your current CM9 version does not support it any more. Any reason for that?
3a.) Are updates possible anyway without flashing the whole ROM?
3b.) Is there anybody managing OTA any update of CM (v. 9..11) for WFS?
3c.) Are OTA updates from cm9 to cm11 possible?
4.) Skype does not react when clicking the icon to start it. Any idea what is the problem?...
5.) Some system programs (e.g. contacts or call manager) do not have that nice design than before. There is no chance/choice to exchange them?... (if yes, how and where to find alternatives?)
Thank you again for your final responses!
First of all this really does not belong in the development section, in Q&A perhaps.
And you just can't ask every single think that comes up in your mind, you gotta search a little bit and try it out for yourself.
Now, 1. Trebuchet does support folders but not auto-arranging. Most of the popular launchers support this.
2. The current CM10 and CM11 are perfectly functional and working. Though they lag a bit (which is fair considering our old device). And the wildfire only had an official CM7 which is very old now.
2b. If you don't have a problem it does not contain a problem.
3. OTA is working for CM11. But for CM9 a OTA makes less sense considering that its stable now.
4. No idea.
5. Again you have to look for yourself, nobody can babysit you all the time.
thanks very much!
Okay, maybe question 1 might belong to Q&A. That's it. Sorry.
To make you understanding (sorry to write again so much!)...
to 1.) Did not expect that it would support it. So I did not even search for!... Thanks, this drag/drop solution is more than perfect!!
to 2.) Sorry, then I am not able to find them. I searched a lot and found actual version like 'WFSY11.0-WFS-V5.5, 20140723' or 'cm-11-20140726-NIGHTLY-marvel' where not even back button or Android option menu worked. Lots of functions are missing. I did not try 'cm-11-20140810-NIGHTLY-marvel' but do not expect more within one month. The same with cm version 10.2. In a thread I read that it was give up because cm11 is already working better.
**** So would you please give me the link to the finished versions of cm10 and cm11, please? ****
(a patch for the video camera problem seems to be existing shortly now...)
to 2b.) My first problem I saw was missing updater in cm9 for version 10 and 11. And the strange Skype problem. And video problem was fixed JUST before!! BT seems to have restrictions as well. So there is good reason to ask this question!?..
to 3.) It seems as if simple updating from Android 4.0 to 4.2 (cm10) and 4.4 (cm11) isn't possible!?... Officially it seems to work. E.g. OTA of Samsung offered update from 4.2.2 to 4.4. Strange!... How/why does it work here?...
Remark: So I suppose it is CyanogenMod which does not support it... It will not work without 'Titanium Backup' here...
to 4.) I suppose you will have the same problem!? Maybe you have opportunity to try out quickly!?... Skype really does not seem to run on WFS cm9+INT2EXT+. Isn't that strange?... (I reinstalled it already. No chance.)
to 5.) I asked this HERE because it belongs to SYSTEM apps (contacts or call manager) that cannot easily be exchanged, as far as I know!... Can they?...
There is one thing I would like to add, after your remarks to my point 2... Maybe I could not find the right sources. But this is because there is no resource pool (about WFS at XDA anywhere. Instead there just appear 'lonely' links in some threads. And instead of telling/explaining the systematics (if there is one) you guys generally just mention the fact (e.g. a link). So this makes it hard for non-insiders. You understand what I mean?...
(so e.g. I will have to ask (in another thread) how I can find the 'FM radio' app (no streaming!) which is missing in CM9 - instead of just looking at the right page where they are collected)
I would be really happy to get to know at least where you guys have found the informations for all what you do when 'cooking' new versions, etc.!...
Cause then I would have read about all that much more!... Instead of blaming me. Sorry, if I do not have that general info that you got already.
Maybe you understand better now!?... Would be fine.
Anyway, thanks a lot for your short repsonses. Have a nice day!
Again only things that are directly related to development are to be placed in development section. And NO if you have a problem with a rom you have to ask it in Q&A. Read the development forum rules in the stickies attached to the top of the section.
And you could also try reading through the stickies in the general section. It will give you some understanding.
Now CM10 and CM11 works, the threads are pretty high in the development section, you can find them if you look. The version of CM11 you used is the right one (the NIGHTLY) and back button does work. Try the later versions. Officially updating to a higher version is different and large corporations can spend time and money to make it work. But it just is not possible (or rather safe) with the variety of unofficial roms. You could try but most probably fail. You can install different apps for call and messaging and they will work. Search for those apps. CM9/10 works fine and have very less amount of problems. Now remember that this is a very old device and the devs are doing it NOT as a profession. So every single thing will never work.
Now as a last your largest problem is you think everything will be written somewhere in front of your eyes. It will not be. You have to use Google before asking a question. And also you just have to calm down and fix your attitude.

That was my fault, I'd moved this out of a thread and mistakenly put it in the Development section. All sorted now.
thanks again for your time to answer!!
I know, I sound as if I would not know which hard work you guys do. But I do, aWF Suser. And I mentioned that already in the beginning.
And I have heard already from your collegues that it would be a good idea if things could be organised some better. The official cm versions e.g have a central resource pool. Or the android-Wiki and CM-Wiki notes are all out-dated (from 2012) !!... Etc.
But PLEASE understand this more as a suggestion than a criticism - from a user that in your eyes only expects and criticises but cannot give. This is not the case!
Thank you!
I know it is an old smartphone I have. And I would have bought a new one already a long time ago. But even Samsung Galaxy Mini is too big in size and some important functions you will only find in the big version. Why is that so? Nobody can explain!... (i would pay the same price for a small phone!!! Handy devices must not be worse and more expensive than big ones!!)
The WFS is just the only really COMPACT smartphone all over. And I am sad that the industry detected a trend to bigger displays. The opposite is the trueth. Nearly all my friends e.g. like to have a compact phone but those always a beginner versions/hardware which cannot be understood at all.
Really sad. It is a big strange hole in products on market, isn't it?...
Unfortunately you did not give me tips how I could find a way to get more familiar with what and how you guys are doing. Is it a secret? I could imagine to do some work here as well. I am very interested in how you are doing your development work!...
Thank you again...
Now it is sure...
Olivier's last CM9 version still has bugs, not only the problem with lgCamera and Skype but also at the akku loading status.
It seems as if it is not correctly refreshing. The loading curve (s. settings) slows down a lot and shows e.g. after 4 hours loading still 43%. But after rebooting it changed to the right value finally: 100%.
So again my question before, as Olivier unfortunately put away the OTA update function (but ment that it is not necessary anymore):
How can this version be fixed?
As far as I know you don't offer patches but only complete ROMs...
Okay first sorry for being rude as posting in the development section was not your fault.
Now the main problem with our device is not that its old but that it has a armv6 cpu which is not supported by later android versions. So development for developers is tougher and bugs will remain. I mentioned the general stickies before there you can find some useful guides.
And have you installed GAPPS in CM9 because some apps depend on it and won't work without it.
And just to be clear, I'm not really a developer but just a user like you.
I never said CM9 doesn't have bugs. It's is clearly stated in its OP that:

Hallo Olivier,
never mind. But I just understood it like that. As you gave the reason for the OTA non-support in your ROM.
So if I misunderstood you... what is your reason then?...
In fact it would bring us forward if you could please comment my questions and/or give tips to solve the mentioned problem.
@so please give me a chance to fix the akku status bug. This is really annoying.
Can you confirm that problem? And if so will you fix it?
And if so how can I update it by OTA updater? Or alternatively at least by a patch but not by a new complete ROM !?...
@TO the Skype problem...
First of all: can you confirm my problem?...
To your question: I used your ROM from 20th Aug. (119.518 KB) This one contains already gapps, I suppose. Cause Google Play and the other stuff was already installed!...
@TO lgCamera...
This wonderful camera app worked fine with EQDKP (v.2.3.5) but now it is too slow and hops a lot. Can you confirm that?
And if so do you have any idea why this is a problem?...
@how can I add FM Radio (analog) support?...
Thank you very much for your feedback!
PS: So if the last version of CM9 is not ment for daily use... which CMx version is it then? Is there none?...
Currently your cm9 works fine. Only those three problems so far...
Do you care for my bug messages?... (or where can I post them?)
Hallo aWF Suser,
yes, I know the problem with the arm version. You must not excuse for any bug in CM.
I do not have problems with bugs. I have more problems when they cannot be fixed easily (missing OTA updater) or errors are not heard or cared for so that bugfixes will not be available at all...
By the way the phone Wildfire (without 'S') is supported by Standard CyanogenMod and also has an ArmV6 processor!...
You mean I should read again the forum rules?... What is it that is is still annoying you in my style of writing?...
Olivier's ROM I used (s. previous message) obviously contained GAPPs already. GooglePlay atc. was already installed. So this should not be the reason, should it?...
First of all: can you confirm my Skype problem, aWF Suser?... I expect it to be in each CM9 version!...
Thank you very much for your support!
PS: By the way, I have compatibility problems when flashing ROMs. For nearly each ROM I have to change the recovery. Is there any that can read all 'formats' of zip files?...

The Wildfire is listed officially only for CM7 (gingerbread) . After that it has not been supported. I am not asking you to read the rules, in the stickies in general section there is a thread that lists some guides to some useful things. And is OTA that necessary because in most cases a dirty flash is enough to upgrade from one version to another as long as its the same android version. Upgrades between different android version would not be possible even with OTA (as lots of things change, it will probably end in a bootloop). I am not using CM9 currently so can't speak for that.
So then which CM version are you using on your WFS? And why?
I flashed cm11 shortly but it still has too many problems. E.g. the camera app crashes after successfully recording a video, the launcher only has two pages, launcher does not seem to support folders, etc.
Do you know where I can find the actual todo list? (AndroidWiki unfortunately is not maintained anymore!)
I will give Paranoid 4.45 a try yet. Maybe this is better!?...
Otherwise I will keep cm9 and hope that we can find out why Skype is not running.
Oooh, that is important... I can make a 'dirt flash'? This is very fine!! Then OTA is not that necessary, of course. But there is still no reason to left it away, is it? Especially because all this observing and searching for the update is NOT necessary! Can't understand Olivier here...
Could you comment my PS as well, please?...

DSP error
not sure if it's just me but everytime I open the music app and play music the DSP manager always crashes.
DSP manager
Hello, I just got a new fresh install. EVERYTHING wiped out, even sd card. I'm getting force closes when trying to play music. DSP Manager is not working as it should. Is this a known issue or only me? Thank you, this rom is great!

Hi, i have got this rom for 2 weeks. At the beginning it was fast etc. Now it cant even kepp launcher in memory? When i want to open any app for few mins, then i wan to back to homescreen it is loading all apps and widgets.. Also i cant back to my apps which i used few seconds/minutes ago cuz it's loading like a new open. When i had viperx 4.2.2 it could keep uc browser and some pages for few weeks, and when i wanted to open, it took 1 second for me. Now im feeling like on my 1st galaxy spica.
Is that normal?
I'm using clean master and it does nothing.
I have to change rom or something?
Second Q, are videos in browsers woring ok for You? I have to restart HOX sometimes if i want to watch someting. And is there any solution to watch videos like on PC?

Thanks,

Hi there,
I tried to install your latest version crdroid-5.0.2-20150121-endeavoru on my HTC One X but I got only an infinit HTC image. I am not very familiar with this things but I think I did what the instructions said:
- start on recovery mod (I am using TWRP v2.6.0.0, the one I used the only time I installed a custom rom);
- installed "crdroid-5.0.2-20150121-endeavoru" and "pa_gapps-stock-5.0.1-BETA12-20150116-signed" and did a data wipe in the end;
- reboot.
As I said, after restarting, I get the HTC start image and nothing progresses. Any idea what I am doing wrong (and how to make my phone back to work)?
Thanks a lot.

If you put the ROM zip on your PC and open the zip file (not unzip) you'll see a boot.IMG inside,extract the boot.IMG to your pc. I'm assuming you've got the fastboot controls on your PC.

Help me!!!
Hello, still no way to move app to SD, always tells me that is full and no space ...
HI
When a new version is offered ??
Thank you very much.
Fixes & futures possible?
Hellow everyone,
recently I've installed the ROM wich is a great build I must say. The experience is smooth and I haven't got any random reboots. But when I reboot the phone, it gets stuck on the HTC logo. After 3 reboots it will work normal again. Sometimes the WIFI doesn't work after a reboot and I have to reboot it again.
Not experienced anymore in build 20150210
Another problem I have is that the AdBlocker isn't working (I still have advertisements in apps) although I've downloaded the latest host files.
Still not working in build 20150210
Something that bugs me is the fact that I can't choose wich page of my homescreens is my home-homescreen.
Available in build 20150210
The last things that in my opinion are missing are a good (digital) clock widget and a simple mail client. In the original Sense ROMs the clock is fantastic and the mail client is just good. I'm now using K-9 mail, but I think there are too many opions in it. (suggestions?)
I installed the wrong Gapps
Probably some things are fixed in the newest build, but I can't find the changelog of it on XDA. It's there! And how do I update my ROM (I am used to OTA updaters, idea?)? Just dirty install the new ROM?
The answer is dirty flashing. (just install the ROM and clear cache and dalvik (I guess))
Beware, for the new storage layout read this post:

In advance thanks for your work and answer!
Keep up the good work! This is the best experience I had so far with an AOSP (had CM, but didn't work that well).

releasenotes?
Hi!
Thanks for your great work on this rom.
Is there a list of changes from the previous release?
Enjoying this rom
Thank you team for a very good rom. I have an HTC One X [Endeavoro] and have experimented with many roms over time. I always fall back onto JB Sense 5 Blade Elite 2.0 with Lyapota mods flashed.
The CM KitKat roms just didn't tick all the boxes for me. Functionality v battery life.
But I am so impressed with this Rom, especially so early in the development.
With crdroid 5.0.2-20150210, I am running the native launcher with PA Gapps mini. Touch recovery 6.0.4.8 gave me a problem restoring the back up but after allowing root access in dev options (I don't know if that made a difference) and flashing twrp-recovery-hox-2.8.1.0 the twrp back up restored perfectly. The Rom is so smooth, battery life is great and everything works!
Congratulations team

If you hold your finger on the screen and the pages display, there is a small home icon at the top of your current home screen, just move it to the one you want, It works.
Did anyone of you guys have the LCD-wakeup problem with horizontal grey lines? (it fixes itself after couple of attempts to unlock the phone and mostly occurs after probably deepsleep OR if there is cold (?) outside ;]
IT DOES NOT occur on CM10 by dr.harald or ANY stock Samsung firmware (also Gingerbread is NOT affected).
But occurs on any 10.1, 10.2 and 11 by anyone (so far ;/
My Ace2 is using pri_lcd_ws2401 driver
Never happened to me and I used many roms, including CM11 by team canjica now.
However I don't know how to check my driver
You can check this under
/sys/devices (you can browse there using Total Commander or any other file manager capable of browsing the whole filesystem on the rooted phone)
Here you should have either :
PRI_LCD_WS2401.0 (like I have)
or
PRI_LCD_S6D27A1.0
Currently I have installed (for testing as usual before restoring the CM10 from backup) CM11 from Team Canjica with the following kernel by PolishVodka :
http://www.mediafire.com/download/yie7ps4irxz5zbl/KERNEL_KK.zip
(I've found it on the following thread : http://forum.android.com.pl/f696/po-wgraniu-cm11-paski-na-szarym-ekranie-481605/ , however it does concern the S6D27A1 and I'm kind of confused now... as it seems to work (at least it does for one-two hours since I loaded the new kernel well... for sure I WILL BE CONFUSED if it woud work longer than one day without "black screen bug" since I am pretty confident that I have WS2401...
Maybe I do something wrong while checking the driver, etc?
One way or another the device drivers available in the filesystem are in :
/sys/devices/pri_lcd_ws2401.0/subsystem/drivers and I have there
pri_lcd_s6d27a1
and
pri_lcd_ws2401
so... since the ONLY driver entry in /sys/devices
is pri_lcd_ws2401.0
it suggests that I am using the WS2401 one
Anyway... I will post later some more info on this
Ok, it seems to work fine - no issues so far. hail to PolishVodka!!!
P.S. However I thought that the kernel from http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-ace/ace-2-develop/kernel-ace2nutzer-kernel-20141027-t2920365 will be working fine, unfortunately for my WS2401 still the "black screen bug" ;/
