Mogomra posted:Cyanogen mod is good at tricking me with that "stable" label... The long story: CM 10.1.0-RC1 was tagged on May 8th I think. But 10.1.0 stable wasn't released until June 24th, which was over a month-and-a-half later. Shortly after RC1 was tagged, a bunch of relatively-invasive changes were made to the d2 development (nightly) branch. These changes were left out of 10.1.0 because they were invasive, however the RC series went on long enough that the changes got plenty of testing and became stable themselves. The only problem is that the invasive nature of these changes meant that d2 kernel and userspace code had to be updated in lock-step, but actually existed across multiple code repositories. So, by the end of June, d2 device maintainers really were working with two different device branches that were starting to look drastically different from each other. To compound that, the SGS4 was released on North American carriers during this time, so all the d2 maintainers were busy bringing jf online. For the most part that didn't have an immediate effect on d2, other than to divide everyone's attention and complicate matters by having maintainers deal with two devices and three branches. When 10.1.0 was finally released, somehow the camera was borked on d2vzw. I'm not sure how exactly that happened, whether it was borked earlier and no one noticed, or whatever. Anyways, the fix was already in the development (nightly) branch and was pulled in for 10.1.0.1. Unfortunately due to the earlier invasive changes and somewhat drastic code reorganiztion, other changes were accidentally pulled in which broke data. Also, 10.1.0.1 received inadequate testing as the mainter was busy/frustrated and thought he was just trying to get a simple fix out quickly to quiet down the xda rabble (bad idea). 10.1.0.2 was the same story, but worse. For 10.1.0.3 folks noticed there was a bigger problem here, spent some time sorting out the issues, and ended up releasing something that was mostly correct, except for aforementioned headset issue. Whoops. Meanwhile d2vzw nightlies have been fine throughout this period. They did see addition of new, less-well-tested features like Privacy Guard, but if you didn't bother to use it, it was essentally what 10.1.0 really should've been. So as I said, if you're on d2, using a recent nightly probably makes the most sense until the next M release. Mogomra posted:I guess unit tests must not work well for Android/Mobile OS development.

Yeah, I feel bad for the people (or one guy?) who maintains d2vzw. Someone posted some stuff on G+ about it, and he genuinely seemed sorry for the inconvenience. I didn't know all the background though. I knew the RCs had been going for a while, but I don't follow CM development close enough to know what's normal. As for the QA/unit test stuff; Yeah, it would suck to do any kind of bug testing for any Android. Especially with the rate of new poo poo being added by them, and Google. I feel like every time they get CM to a good mix of stable and extra features, the have to drop everything and start from scratch for the next version of Android.

I went from never going into deep sleep to the below. ScarletBrother might try that. I will say that yesterday I did get some great uptime with screen off music playback. 8 hours for 35% battery drain. Edit: Realistically does it matter that much in the grand scheme of things?

Hey, I have a Galaxy Nexus that I just updated to CyanogenMod 10.1 (from 9.1, which I've been using for nearly a year) and my phone is now so unresponsive that I can't even access ROM manager without the app crashing. I found the factory image for 4.2.2. How would I go about reverting back to the factory image?

It's mostly just ticking the right boxes, pointing it to your factory image, and being patient while it does its thing.

Wow, there are a lot of old android forums out there. I have an HTC Incredible I'd like to flatten and use as a development platform- it's my old beater phone that has been with me for years. The problem is that when I try to do the recovery mode or factory reset, it hangs on the white HTC screen. I've read conflicting information about what is and isn't possible, but I assume my (failed) attempt to load a custom rom from years ago is the culprit, as I successfully rooted the phone but always hung on the backup phase of the process.

If not, do that, then try again.

I ended up restarting the whole process. I was 99% certain that I made sure to wipe prior to the flash on the first try but for whatever reason it seems to work fine now. Thanks for the suggestions.

Re: battery life, I run CM 10.1 nightlies on my Nex4 with a wifi performance fix and Faux123 kernel and get frankly bloody fantastic life with wifi on all day. I'm not a heavy user though, but with 2hr screen on time and a nice array of push services (LINE, Facebook, full Google suite, Firefox, Skype) and a ROM backup and flash today I finished 18 hours of battery with 64%. Music listening does tend to drain it quick though. I should note I am blessed with great reception though. As for Privacy Guard it is about the best thing ever. Screw you Facebook. And LINE. And Skype.

So, Actually Complete rom dumps of the Google Play Edition HTC One (which really needs a longer name) are out, and bigxie updated his rom. This plus the tbalden kernel (with the settings for logo2menu, logo2wake, and long-press logo2sleep), is ultra next-level own-zone, in that now Everything Actually Works. (Except the IR Blaster, which no one cares about) Compared to last week's leak:
The tbalden kernel also has a fuckload of customization options surrounding functionality of the capacitive strip, like making the logo area into the menu button, allowing you to wake or sleep the phone via any of the capacitive buttons, etc. The wake/sleep stuff is nice because to me it fixes the retarded placement of the power button on the One. Oh, and there's also this. As best I can tell it works perfectly and breaks everything I ever knew about Sense applications. It'll even take Zoes. The gallery app can't *display* Zoes, but poo poo if they can get the camera working a compatible gallery can't be too far off. From reading about it, apparently despite being the "Google Play Edition", the Rom still has all manner of Sense framework stuff sitting in it. So it's not Sense, it's not straight AOSP, it's something else entirely. All told, this is pretty outstanding for the first actually complete version of this Rom. Can't wait to see what comes out once people actually start hacking on it.

BoyBlunder posted:What is this wifi performance fix, and what does it do? Upshot is that someone took the wifi device config from an LG Optimus G and made it CWM flashable. What it does, exactly, is a mystery to me, and some folks in that XDA thread complain of battery issues. No battery issues for me and what it solved was my wifi speeds sucking, in the sub-1mbit zone, and YouTube not working at all. Some routers exhibit this behaviour with the Nexus 4 apparently, and that fix solved it. I went from YouTube needing to buffer normal video every 10 seconds (basically: unusable) to being able to watch HD videos without a hitch.

Can somebody advise me on how to suppress this dumb "low memory" error message? It started popping up a few weeks ago on either LiquidSmooth or AOKP, and has now persisted through a few different roms. Currently running CM 10.1.0 on a gnex. I don't care that memory is low. Android should just kill something to free up space (right?). And when I was running LiquidSmooth with the rambar visible I'd have close to 200 megs of free ram anyways. It's just an annoyance.

I know its been several months since I posted my grievances on my inability to do comprehend the complexities of rooting a phone, but I wanted to thank you guys for helping me out, and I'm sure that you've helped other people by spelling it out for my n00b rear end on how exactly to root. I was wondering, and I may have missed it on my way backwards from the last page, if anyone has figured out how to disable the System Write protection on the HTC Once device, AT&T vesion. I've been looking through the xda forums but it looks like you have to flash a custom kernel which kind of sucks. Maybe I'm still new to the whole flashing of kernels and stuff and don't get that either. If I'm wrong, does anyone have any suggestions to what kernel to flash for the best user experience?

I've been away from rom flashing and the rooted thread here for a few months. ATT GS3 I put cm10 stable on from november and it "just works" and I haven't messed with it. I'm wanting to try out the 10.1.1 stable but I think I remember something about running 4.2-based roms you're supposed to have a certain ver bootloader or recovery or something? edit: "Going forward, CM10.1 is no longer compatible with ICS bootloaders on this device. Please update or else you will get assert failures in recovery." This was non-rooted when it was handed-down to me from my wife in feb, I'm about 75% sure it was JB/4.1 & not ICS, how would I check?
