Is there any reason to update your recovery if nothing's broken? I decided to check out the TWRP page, and I see there are 3 new versions since the one on my Nexus 4 (2.5.0.0). If I do update it, do I need to wipe anything/will it automatically wipe anything?

It won't wipe anything and yes you should update it. Recovery updates are important and you should do them. I don't know how much TWRP updates, but CWR updates are in the CM changelog so I know what's in every commit and there are real, necessary improvements in the recovery updates even when they aren't paired with a release (I just build the latest version every time there's a change).

I remember seeing a Google+ post by Koushik Dutta talking about how new CWM recoveries were coming out around the same time as the CM 10.2 nightly releases were starting up. He said generally you shouldn't update your recovery unless you're having issues with what you already have. v :shobon:

Of course I can't actually find that post, so believe whatever you want.

You certainly don't need to but if it's pushed to ROM Manager it's usually for a good reason. As it stands most times even when there's a version bump don't get pushed out to ROM Manager so it's not like the changes are fixing something critical. The last one if I remember correctly was to fix the problem with root being broken on 4.3 and if you don't update the recovery it won't properly install the daemon for Superuser to work.

Alright, so I just tried out CM10.2 nightlies on my Sprint GS3. Is there any good reason why it seems to want to drop my data connection alot in it? I'm at work, which really doesn't have the best signal to begin with, but in stock TW it works fine. On CM I watched data drop out left and right.

Have you updated your firmware recently? If you haven't taken an OTA in a while you may have outdated radios and other important partitions.

Cyanogenmod ROMs typically assume you're running the latest radio version, so check your current radio version and see if it's on MD4 yet.

Yeah I'm on MD4. I just reflashed CM 10.2 while at home where I have an actual signal, unlike my work sometimes. I'm gonna give it a longer test to see how it works out.

I posted this on XDA the other day but it hasn't been responded to so I figure I'll try my luck here.

I've been trying to unlock the bootloader on my LG L9 P769 (stock rom, rooted), and I'm fairly certain I've softbricked it. My only options right now are Upgrade Mode, CMW, and a strange white screen that says "Encrypting" on it. This screen pops up whenever I try to regularly boot my phone, and so far I've found no explanation for what it is or does. In addition, Windows doesn't recognize the phone in any way, and I've hard-reset and data wiped about 5 times to no avail. Has anybody experienced anything like this?

It was me. Here is an xda link to how scripts work.

This is my backup script:

code:

#!/sbin/sh
# 
# /system/addon.d/91-cm.sh
# During a CM10 upgrade, this script backs up /system/etc/hosts,
# /system is formatted and reinstalled, then the file is restored.

list_files() {
cat <<EOF

    list_files | while read FILE DUMMY; do
      backup_file $S/"$FILE"
    done
  ;;
  restore)
    list_files | while read FILE REPLACEMENT; do
      R=""
      [ -n "$REPLACEMENT" ] && R="$S/$REPLACEMENT"

esac

The files under the line "cat <<EOF" are what will be backed up and restored after each flash. The lines beginning with "rm" are files that CM flashes that I don't want. You can remove all of those lines or add paths to files you'd prefer be removed. Note that I have CatLog backed up and restored after each flash at the top, you'll need to remove that too (if the script fails on a line I believe the entire rest of the script is aborted). This script gets placed in the /system/addon.d folder (with other scripts that will look the same) and should be named 91-cm.sh or something similar.

When I sold my Nexus One on CM7 it had somewhere north of 1750 hours of uptime.

A couple interesting commits on tonight's CM10.2 build which is being built right now:

Focal is being removed. Comments say because it's broken on a number of devices (it is) and that's causing ~~drama~~ in the community but I'm unaware of that although I'd love to read about it if anyone knows what Steve is referring to. Good riddance to bad trash though.

And There are three commits that deal with connectivity when dealing with RIL errors. I sure hope this resolves the flaky connectivity restoration in low signal areas. I barely get a signal at work so I usually go into airplane mode while there but if I turn off airplane mode before I'm in an area where I know I get connectivity it will never rejoin the network. I think this is the same issue that ninmeister was seeing in his post above and hopefully this will resolve it.

Patch Set 1:
I spoke with Xplod at length about this. I think Focal is a great piece of work with huge potential, but there's now this perception that CM is trying to steal his hard work and run with it. I would rather see him continue this as a standalone project (which will no doubt be successful) rather than continue to generate drama in the community.

The stock camera app has always worked fine for me, so I don't care if Focal never comes back.

On a different note, I'm still losing all sounds on a near daily basis and I can't figure out what's causing it, but boy is it annoying. I sure hope it gets fixed soon though because now I can't live without the notification syncing that 4.3 brought.

hooah: Feb 6, 2006; WTF?

LastInLine, since you seem to be somewhat involved in CM (to the extent of building it yourself, anyway), do you know why the built-in SuperUser functionality would crap out after a day or two? It's been happening for perhaps a month on my Nexus 4, across many different nightlies. I'll wake up some morning and see that Titanium Backup couldn't get root privileges to back poo poo up in the middle of the night, and when I test other root apps, they all say they can't get permissions either. If I reboot, things are fine for another day or so. People on G+ suggested I use SuperSU, but it doesn't want to flash through the app (which is the recommended way to get it), and I'd rather not have to periodically check for a new version to flash in recovery.

Awesome, time to try out CM10.2 again. I could never get a stable data connection with my verizon galaxy nexus on 3g/4g so I downgraded after a few days of fiddling with everything. I do miss the speed improvements though.

How are people finding MIUI these days? I don't tend to hear a lot about it anymore. I've recently flashed the latest version for my Nexus S and I love the aesthetic of it. I've had to switch to Performance Mode though, as opposed to Power Saving or Normal, so I'm not sure how my battery is gonna enjoy it.

Feels like my Nexus S is getting a little sluggish these days in general though, so I can't really blame MIUI. Main reason I swapped in the first place was that CM10 was laggy as well.

I've never had problems with that. You do have the current recovery, correct? If you disable the flash-recovery.sh script (as the older recoveries would) it won't start the daemon that needs to run to have Superuser work in 4.3. That's almost certainly what's wrong but I don't know how to fix it if you're regularly flashing nightlies and that isn't working for you. If you're not regularly flashing nightlies, grab the latest one and fastboot flash the current recovery then use that to install CM. You haven't uninstalled some critical CM file, have you?

I know it's something to do with the daemon not running/getting stopped but I don't know how or why that would happen and a logcat is going to be tough to get since it could be happening at any time.

Like you said, open source = drama and it is always inevitable. Sure, there are things I think Steve and team could have done better but when there's 7 mil on the line someone's feelings are going to get hurt. That's how it goes. All that means is CM goes 'official' and angry people can fork CM its current state (or go AOSP) and make AngryNerdMod for XDA to clamor over.

That's not to say I wouldn't be a little butthurt too if it was my code but open source phone hackery is a labor of love. Lesson learned, hack the next phone. Still though, I wish the CM venture the best of luck. Never in a million years would I have guessed that the jank piece of poo poo I shoehorned onto my G1 a billion years ago would be an actual company.

I have the most recent version of TWRP (as of ...two days ago?), and I am flashing nightlies (albeit through CyanDelta).

I've run into an amusing problem with the nightly from yesterday where Android System eats up ~4 times the battery as the screen. I've left it plugged in to the OEM charger now for about an hour, and it's gone up maybe 10%. Something is hosed in that nightly.

No, it's like if you put your band's recordings out under an open license (I'd say CC-BY-SA would be a reasonable GPL analog for such things) and someone decided to put them in to a compilation album.

When you release code under the GPL that's the agreement you're making with the world. Anyone is permitted to redistribute it, as long as they make source available to those they've distributed it to. They can even charge for it, though the passed down redistribution rights make this a bit of a tricky business model since the next person can just give it away for free.

Not that I'm defending the apparent behavior of the CM team, but what you've compared it to would be illegal where this is just dickish.

Well, I flashed the 9/21 CM 10.2 nightly on my Sprint Galaxy S3 after those RIL changes were merged in. It looks like it has helped, but developed an interesting little bug. It will show my connection as no connection (the hollow signal triangle), yet in phone status it shows I'm on eHRPD and data will work fine. This seems to only happen in a low signal situation. But at least the data is working.

I imagine that will get worked out. The weekend will be a good time to see how this works. Thanks LastInLine for the information on that being merged in!

Strangest thing happened to me just now with my HTC One. Not sure if anybody else had a similar experience or not.

I've got a rooted HTC One (GSM AT&T 64GB model) running a slightly outdated version of ARHD (4.3 base). It was fine throughout the day for me, but just a while ago, the mobile data was disabled. I started to wonder why, but toggling stuff didn't make it work again. I also wondered if it was because I had custom icons, but nope, the mobile data really was disabled.

I started to wonder what was going on, so I did a reboot. Still a problem. I was hoping the SIM wasn't messed up, or I'd have to go to the AT&T store nearby tomorrow and hope for the best. So to see if the SIM card was the culprit or not, I pulled it out and swapped it into my Lumia 920 (which I keep for amateur development purposes and as a backup device). I put it in by turning off the Lumia, putting the SIM into the tray, and powering it back on. I thought it wasn't going to work at first, but it did. The SIM was working just fine.

That's when I got a bit nervous and started to wonder if it was because I had rooted and tricked out my phone a bit too much that the SIM card wouldn't detect. So just to make sure if the problem was still there or not, I powered down my Lumia, put the SIM back into my HTC One, powered it back on, and it was just fine. I have no idea what really caused it in the first place now. I just hope it doesn't happen again. I'm also still wondering if this whole "mobile data stops working for no apparent reason" thing has happened to anyone else.

I have a Nexus 4. At the moment I'm using cyanogenmod nightlies, which works great for me on the most part.

The lockscreen options are bugging me at the moment. I'd like my phone to work like an iPhone in terms pin locking:
1. Only turn on pin / passcode lock after a user defined delay.
2. Always show the slide-to-unlock lockscreen whenever the screen is turned off & on, no matter the delay.

I used to use Delayed Lock, but I found it a bit buggy (graphical glitches etc.), plus it doesn't work with an encrypted phone.

Do any current roms include built in lockscreen delay features, to make it function exactly like the iPhone?
I could've sworn a previous version of Cyanogenmod did include this by default, but it clearly doesn't at the moment.

He wants a delay before the PIN kicks in.

I think the best solution is to have the power button always lock the device immediately, and have the delay only apply to the screen timeout.

I noticed a few vending machines on my campus that are promoting that alternative to Google Wallet that AT&T seem to like much more. The machines even promised me a free drink if I paid with it for the first time.

So I find it on Google Play with overwhelming negative reviews. I still wanted to check it out because of the prospect of a free drink.

I downloaded it and I find a message in the app saying that the app refuses to run because I have a rooted device.

I hate when apps do this.

I'm trying out a different kernal on my SGS3 CM 10.2. How does updating CM work when a different kernel--does it overwrite it with the one in CM, or will it stay?

Your kernel gets overwritten with the CM one. If you're using CyanDelta, you can move a zip of your kernel to the CyanDelta folder and tell it to flash that after the CM update.

Is it the kernel that handles mhl support? Cyanogenmod doesn't support hdmi out, but I don't know if that's just the kernel or something else.
