[Q] Fix Permissions broken in Froyo? - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

when i hit fix permissions in rom manager or cwm recovery it doesnt do anything on froyo.. is there a reason behind this?

Its a leak so most likely a bug that will be fixed soon or when official froyo comes out

Anybody have their permissions working? I'd really like to have the option like I used to.

Yea seems to be broken!

My buddy runs it on his Droid running 2.2 all the time. I wonder what it would take to get it back on the Vibrant.
I emailed the Dev a month or longer and well never got a response.

Here is a thread with 2 different fixes:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=854186
Both would have to be redone after a reboot but at least it works.

This is the first 2.2 rom that has given me absolutely no issues.. including battery issues. Seems ultra stable, very snappy response, gps works like a charm.. I couldn't be happier.
I haven't had any more problems sending or receiving mms than I have stock or on any other rom(it has always been a bit buggy)
I used to have axura but I switched I had the worst data connection...really irritTed me so I went to obsidian..

I tried 3 roms yesterday (my daughter was home sick, sleeping).
Out of R14, Nero Beta 1, and Axura 2.2....
Axura is SO much better, for me. To be fair to Eugene, I was lazy and did not ODIN to stock before flashing R14.... Nero is not ready yet in my opinion, but it will be amazing. Axura 2.2 is rock solid and fast.
Of course, all of these are going to be irrelevant soon.
I was having problems with it. I was running it without any mods and I always ODIN back to JFD before I flash.
It would randomly just reboot or occasionally hard lock on me.
I ODINed JFD and back to Auxura serveral times, even without restoring my Titanium Backup stuff. I really liked it, but I have no clue why it did that.
I've been using Axura 2.1 for about a week now and haven't noticed any problems. I send probably 200 - 300 SMS a day and 20 - 30 MMS a day. No problems.
It just works, also flashed the JL1 modem = amazing!

What difference do you see with that modem?
It seems like with Axura I can hear quiet, high-pitched clicks when I'm talking on the phone.
regarding the modem, I imagine experiences will vary... but I am finally able to get 3g in my office thanks to it.
I'm using axura since 2.0 had been released. so that's a long time i think. so far it didn't let me down. Using JL1 modem.

Have been using 2.1 for about a week. Had the first 'lock n reboot' today, softwares that I had open at the time are:
Music Player
GPS Test
MapDroyd
SportsTrack
GPS antenna
Must had too many things going on for the CPU to process.
The only real problem for me is after i reboot my phone and i use launcher pro it always has a wait and force close option. It only happens to launcher pro and this rom. It Always happens on the second media scanning it just freezes. I have to kill launcher pro so it could work again.

Not booting
I installed the ROM and installation got terminated due to error in Line 11 and after that mobile is not starting up. Plz help me
Axura works great for me. Regarding the mms issue. If you install handcent from the market (its free) Then you can send and recieve mms with no problems. One minor problem Ive had, and its only happened 1 or 2 times since Ive installed it is that after turning the phone on it doesnt pick up a signal, stays on searching. But a simple reboot fixes it.
nope no problems
i love axura rom
in my opinion i think is the best
and mms does work for me
Have had gps lock problems, mms problems, and the task manager wont always show the current apparently. Nothing too big though.

[Q] Broken wifi after new roms

Hello all!
Long time reader here.
I've been looking for answers to this for several hours now and haven't been able to find anything that works.
I bought my Photon new about 2 months ago. Immediatly I rooted and unlocked it, with the thought that I was going to play around with custom ROMs as I did on my Epic 4g.
Anyway, this evening I decided to go ahead and put a new ROM on. I did the usuals, delvak, formats, etc.. I started with Joker's Skinny rev1. Install went great, but I was unable to use wifi. I couldnt even turn it on. It just says "Error" on the wifi settings menu. So I did some research and I found out that this is a common problem and simply needed a dhd.ko file to be replaced. So I did via 7zip and reflashed. Still no wifi. I then tried to give ACS's ROM a try, and same thing. So again, I replaced the dhd.ko file and reflashed. Still no glory. I also went ahead and re-unlocked the bootloader again just in case(read a few issues of that messing with wifi).
So needless to say, I can't figure out how to get my wifi back. I'm at a complete loss. Does anyone have any ideas? Also, if it matters, I live state-side. I don't have anything frozen either. Just a freshly installed ACS ROM.
Thanks for any help you guys can offer.

I really need to update skinny. I plan to do a source build and edit it to death. Cm9 has my free time tied up. It won't be too much longer and I'll get everything going on cm9. Luckily rocko roms are turning out great. Eventually I'll go back and update my blur roms.

Scripts have nothing to do with your camera. It simply changes a few things to make it faster. Great for stock rooted roms

Any ideas on what is causing the wifi issue?
Sent from my MB855 using XDA App
The radios are sensitive. The wifi driver must be compiled to the kernel you are using. In skinny unlocked it is. Skinny complete is the newest and has an awesome web top modification. Uncompressed its 2 gigs.

Reflash cm7 requires SBF

I have been having amazingly annoying wireless issues with cm7 on my dx2, to the point that I'm cutting into my data plan most times without me even knowing it. I want to flash cm7 again, but do I absolutely have to Sbf first, or at all?
I have a nandroid backup of my stock 2.3.4 pre cm7,can I just restore that and flash cm7 over it? If so should I do that knowing I have issues with cm7 from that? I didn't clear the big3 prior to flashing cm7 the first time but did per the steps in the beta thread, as will as a few times since.
So should I sbf, or restore and flash again?
Sent from my MB870 using XDA App
If you are having problems you should definitely sbf and wipe data. Start over fresh to make sure no fragments of previous mods are lingering around.
However, the wifi issue seems to be a problem in cm7 for some. I had it and installed wifi helper. It didn't fix the problem just reconnected wifi when it would drop. I assume that's what you mean by wireless issues. If so, you might try wifi fixer before sbf and wipe.
Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA App
Thanks for that, many people have posted saying that didn't fix the wifi related issues, but I will indeed give wifi fixer a go first before sbf...
Sent from my MB870 using XDA App
I have had similar issues with Wifi and radio/data connectivity. I believe that there are some further tweaks that need to be made but as I understand Dragonzkiller is not making any more adjustments to this ROM but rather focusing on CM9
However, I have found that booting into CWR and wiping cache and Dalvik Cache has improved things. The wifi issues will be ongoing but for me I rather live with that than stock.
I've been using an app that seems to work well as far as keeping wifi on. Before, I did change settings to having it never sleep. It did fix it. Maybe once or twice I noticed it shut off. But a lot less than before I made the changes. But anyway, I am using this app called llama-location profiles. It pretty much changes the state of your device based on location and other triggers. For instance, I have it set to turn wifi on when I get home and to leave it on as long as its connected to MY wifi or leave the area then it will turn wifi off. Since using this, I have not once had a problem with my wifi turning off. The app does a lot more than just that too so I recommend it regardless.

What's the resource usage inn that app? Strangely enough I gave up after wifi fixer as well as multiple sbf and flash didn't resolve. i flashed liberty instead, and zero Wifi problems. So not the device, not the environment, all that's left is configuration and software. I'm fairly certain I had it configured right, the no sleep policy didn't add much stability, appeared to just ignore it. Bah! I want to run cm7! :[

To get to Liberty or cm7 did you end up doing a fresh sbf to a clean stock 2.3.4?
If you did and then if you didn't add any additional apps for a bit, do you still see the wifi issue on a clean cm7?
I would think this should help you learn if a software program is causing the wifi to hiccup.

Yea I did end up doing sbf to 2.3.4 first then flashing to cm7. I didn't wait to install any apps on cm7, I suppose I could try it and report back. I'd feel better about it if liberty had the problem too but I'll rule it out.

There will be an update for CM coming it may fix your WIFI is its a complete rebuild from source and Im sure it will be a cleaner version then the last. Some things like that connectivity issues may be fixed.
I hope so, the morning after I flashed cm7 again it hung up and disabled my wifi network. No other apps installed. I have been watching the logs and it doesn't appear to do the same thing twice when it goes borton on me. for another release are you talking about cm9?

It's an issue that doesn't happen on stock, liberty, or now eclipse, but every way I flash cm7 it comes back immediately. what do you mean by full wipe? And trust me I have sbf'd enough times in enough different ways to truly call "sbf'd" a four letter word...
Just because it doesn't happen to everyone doesn't mean it's not a cm7 issue. To be fair I'm not _sure_ it is a cm7 issue but I'd like to prove it's not, and haven't had real good luck doing so.

I am truly sorry YOU went over your data plan....and by no means am I bashing you, I believe that dragonzkiller is dedicating his time to US, US, US.
I too have noticed my wifi turning off when I leave my phone for 5 minutes, but hey, look at the ROM....my God we have Cyanogen on our DX2...with a locked bootloader. I live a rushed lifestyle in a fast paced New Jersey, if I can deal with my patience I'm sure you can too.

Continuous reboots all of a sudden

I'm on NRG's ROM. All of a sudden yesterday, my phone just starting rebooting itself. I've been using his ROM for a while now and it never happened. I have the logcat. Can someone tell me what the hell is happening?
I already superwiped and flashed a clean ROM. I didn't add tweaks or install any apps and it still happens. Really pissing me off.
Could be hardware. Revert back to stock for 24hrs. If it revolts again then it could be hardware related....it could also be battery related.
X told me I had to fix permissions. I just did that so I will see if it happens. I hope not lol.
About 2/3 of the way down the logcat you have all kinds of system errors... Idk what they mean, but look legible to anyone who knows what they're looking at

Are you talking about the old One Click Lagfix? I don't think you need to worry about that nowadays in your ICS ROMs, let alone those old fixes even working. I could be wrong, but the lag fixes I know about (voodoo and OCL) just changed file systems from RFS to EXT, and you don't have that problem with ICS ROMS.
PS supercurio's voodoo lagfix is better if you ever go back to Froyo, and almost every custom ROM you see will have a kernel that has it enabled by default.
He's talking about this
RyanZA's lag fix: will it work on the vibrant? **UPDATE**
I don't use it or know anything about it. When I'm on 2.2/2.3, is always use Voodoo.
Yea man, I've honestly never heard of RyanZa's lagfix lol I had to look it up also, and it seems rather....antiquated if you ask me lol
As Wood mentioned, most Froyo and GB roms run with voodoo already enabled, so you don't need to worry about running a lagfix or anything.
I'm not entirely sure about ICS roms, however I can tell you that you most certainly do not want this RyanZa thing.
I remember using oclf at the early time if the vibrant. I only used it back on rooted stock 2.1 though. After that it was voodoo. Voodoo is twice as fast anyways. Regardless I think it was only for samsung roms, not aosp based. Isn't voodoo the same way?
The last time I used it was on the onyx and obsidian roms, back when voodoo caused soft bricks if it want disabled between flashing. Once that got fixed oclf seemed to have gotten abandoned.
Wasn't this method outdated after eclair? I remember using it when the Vibrant first came out but not since.
