I decided to make a thread for kaos that gives a more complete set of incomplete/broken things so he doesn't half to. I will try to keep this up to date as possible and if you see something that has been fixed that i have listed as broken please post and I will correct it. I will try to do as many detailed things as possible for now and as things are fixed I will remove them and if a fix is required to be applied manually will try to include it also. Keep in mind this is an unofficial thread and I am not responsible for anything you do to your phone. Now to the list (PS if this is an inappropriate posting area feel free to move it)
Data: FIXED entirely update to latest build
Wifi: FIXED update to latest build.
Bluetooth: Somewhat working, will pair but won't connect.
Browser: UPDATE: fixed, still crashes on flash and javascript some though according to people in irc.
USB notification: no usb mount notification not sure if USB mass storage will work or not but adb still works so a work around is using the commands adb push and adb pull (google on how to use these commands if you dont know already)
Vibrate notifications: vibrate works on the stock messaging app fine but I can't get it working on go sms. Workaround would be just use the stock notifications.
Quadrant: quadrant doesnt work for me gets stuck at database writes, not a big deal no known fix though
Sensors: FIXED update to latest build
Headphone jack: Headphone jack is now fixed somewhat. Still buggy to a degree some headphones won't work (it seems to only work for headphones that have a mic built in for me but it could be just hit and miss with all headphones).
Haptic feedback: haptic feedback in general doesn't work. No known fix
Camera: Currently not working. No known fix.
Cyanogen Settings has some things that make the phone freeze, DO NOT ENABLE JIT its not working yet.
Recovery: Currently broken for me and some other people. Not sure if its working for others (kaos's works and has been apparently.) JT said it shouldn't be a hard fix for him in the future (likely next release?) Use odin to get back to stock and restore your backup from before you had CM installed if you made one if you want. (report any problems in thread please) UPDATE: Greyone and Kaos informed me that recovery works if you go to recovery mode and select advanced > reboot recovery (thanks!)
Wireless tethering:Works if you use the Wireless tether app! fix found by ae55. Might work with other wireless tether applications but it WILL NOT work with the wireless tether in the settings menu.
USB tethering: Not working for me (try it and post if it works for you, its in settings, wireless and networks) more than likely a 3rd party app like easy tether would fix this as long as your 3g is working
MMS: MMS also does not currently work. A workaround is to simply get the message sent to your email for receiving but it seems that the sending of gmail messages isnt working atm i just did a test message to my number and it is sitting in my outbox. Been there for a good bit so its more than likely not sending it. A 3rd party application could fix this possibly? Update: Message finally went through it took a solid 15-20min though so I wouldn't rely on it myself. Again, 3rd party app would prob be your best bet around this. IT DOES NOTIFY YOU IF YOU RECEIVE AN MMS JUST WONT DOWNLOAD IT!
ADW launcher app drawer: not really a bug just many users have looked for this and cant find it, its pretty simple to fix just longpress on the homescreen and tap custom shortcuts then the adw launcher things then app drawer. Hope this clears some things up.
YOUTUBE: seems as though the youtube application isnt playing videos, I dont have good enough service to test it but I will take everyone in the threads word for it. Other video playback apps seem to be having trouble too.
Pandora: Currently my pandora isnt working, could just be me but i think its a problem with the 3g still.
Thats all that I can find for now that isn't working but its likely I missed something, I more than stress to keep in mind Kaosinate is still a VERY alpha build. Its about a 50-50 split between things working and things not working for now but it is coming along thanks to Kaos' work on it and I invite everyone to follow him on twitter and join IRC for the MOST up to date information about this ROM.
Edit: Nevermind. Haven't checked his tweets (well, his reply tweets). Good write up.

The latest Swype beta works wonderfully in Kaosinate v2.
There is an extra step you have to perform to get it working.
Download and install the swype installer from your beta.swype.com page. Install swype. It will force close when trying to configure swype after the install or generate a license.
Delete the libSwype.co from system/lib/. Then reinstall swype and voila! You will have a fully working, fully up to date, swype keyboard.
--I'll post this in the kaosinate thread too to make sure everyone knows it works. I was dying w/o it.
Edit: just realized someone already posted this in the kaosinate thread so i'll just leave it at this post.

Scott (scrosler) gave me permission to branch off development of his M2D Round 4 Reloaded ROM, since he'd officially abandoned his Titan development. He's having too much fun with his new Touch Pro ROM cooking.
STABLE BRANCH 1.3.4 [02/20/2009]
These first releases of what I'm calling Titan Reloaded is pretty similar to his loaded ROM and just includes some minor updates and tweaks, which are detailed on the download page here:
http://www.pdamag.com/roms/
Instructions and caveats here:
http://www.pdamag.com/rom-install-instructions/
Titan Reloaded 1.3.4 is out and contains tons of changes, check them out!
Thanks to xda-developers and members scrosler, dcd1182, and no2chem.
I'm starting this thread to support the users of this branch. Thank you for trying it.
FAQ
Q: When I switch to lanscape mode, or open the keyboard, why doesn't M2D switch to landscape?
A: Lanscape mode isn't supported in M2D, and I can't add it, since I didn't write it and don't have the source.
Q: Why doesn't the flash on the camera work?
A: The version 5 camera is installed by default as it seems to take better pictures, and it doesn't support flash. If you want the flash back, download the kitchen instead of the standard ROM and customize your ROM before flashing it with the version 4 camera. I challenge you to show me a picture that came out better with the puny "flash" on this camera, though.
Q: Why doesn't the "ok" hardware button open the start menu?
A: I haven't figured that out myself. It seems that M2D takes control of that hardware button and I can't fix it. Try using the start menu hardware button instead.
Q: I'm having a problem with the stable branch, how do I get help?
A: There are no known issues. First try doing a hard reset after flashing (hold both softkeys, the hardware buttons with dots on them in while pressing in the reset button with your stylus. Then press the hardware R and space keys when prompted.) Then try to reproduce your problem without installing any custom software in the kitchen or after flashing. If you can reproduce it, please provide the steps to reproduce in the forum and ask for assistance.

BETA BRANCH 1.4b2 [02/20/2009]
Also check out the 1.4 beta 2 which upgrades 2DManila (including footprints), HTC Album, and HTC Audio Manager from a new HTC release. Also included the previously missing Audio Booster. Upgraded Youtube with working finger scroll. Now using default theme, which can still be changed from M2DC. Also installed the Volume Control. The carrier cabs have been upgraded and are now installed under My Documents by default. No more app bundle installed. I haven't tested those apps with the new Manila. I also upgraded the sys files to new OS version.
Because it may not be obvious, to non-software developers. The beta ROM probably has bugs. I need feedback to fix them. Please don't run it if you don't find it fun beta testing. If you want stable, please go with 1.3.4 for now.
http://www.pdamag.com/downloads/TitanReloaded_1.4b2.rar
There are a lot of known issues with the beta at this time:
1. In call volume adjustment doesn't work (some report this works though?)
2. Custom cities in weather tab may not work?
3. If your phone gets stuck on vibrate, go into Start->Settings->Phone-> and Change to Ring.
Update 09/04/2012 - Kitchen is available for beta.
Thanks!
cant wait for the kitchen since i need SIP change and Data backup in my phone at all times. thanks for keeping this going for us xv6800 users
bitserve: thanks for keeping the Titan ROMs alive.
bitserve, thanks for your work. it's good to see what started (which is freaking awesome, by the way!!), will continue. happy holidays to you all.
What are the two issues and quickfixes?
From bitserve's site:
TitanReloaded 1.0 Known Issues [12/16/2008]
* Location tab search doesn’t open GoogleMaps. A quick fix is to copy \Program Files\GoogleMaps\GoogleMaps.exe to \Windows
* Internet tab doesn’t open Internet Explorer. A quick fix is to set [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila2D\InternetWidget]

Looks good. I'm looking forward to flashing this when I get home.
I just flashed it on my Mogul(useless Qwest phone) and I liked it, so I flashed it on my XV6800 and it's awesome. Keep up the good work.
Flashed it and it's working wonderfully.
Hey Bitserve,
When i get some time, i'll flash your rom

Im not giving up my TP for anything ;c)
I just started looking again at the different ROM's out there since I had a few days to try and update things again on my phone.
I flashed this yesterday and have noticed a few things. I will list some of them.
The interface is very nice. The app shortcuts are easily added to the application page. Colors are customizable and are easily seen.
My phone seems to react very slowly to the bluetooth and the music app would not even open. Not sure why? There needs to be a regedit app installed. The quick access menu that I've been used to is gone, would be nice to see the Contacts and some of the others that are in the "start" menu that are used frequently still show up there. The used applications are cleared when the phone is shut off and restarted, so when you try to get to a previously used app, you need to go back through the menu selections to find it again. A GPS app would be nice as well. I couldn't get the Google Maps to find any satellites though. I know the phone with Verizon can be a little finicky for GPS at times. Although I did have it working a while back with a different install and was great.
The camera and photo viewer are SWEET. They work very well. I may have to try a different build and see how that works for the time being, but will be back when there are a few other mod's to this one. It looks very promising.
Also, my kids grabbed my phone and were disappointed that there weren't any games other than the default MS ones.
A couple more things I noticed, are that the battery indicator did have colors to it (very nice), although the number of bars didn't change and I ran it to nothing thinking I was also getting incredible battery life. Theclock seemed to lock up and not update.
I recently changed from a Hermes to the 6800 and have been looking for the perfect ROM (for me). I have to tell you I found it. This is the first ROM I have tried that everything works and is set up for my needs. Thank you & looking forward to your next update.
This is sweet..I have some questions
How do I get the OK button (side) working on the home page? Basically to open the start menu like in the OEM roms?
Also I have the callhistory.exe file how to I get the Voice button to open it?
Another thing is how to I make the scroll bar on the side wider?

OK to add to this, I installed the ROM pack and now mthe phone works funny.
The dialer display cuts off some numbers and the right hand scroll bar in the folders acts funny. also the Screen align does not work.

What you guys think?

Do you mean that your bluetooth was slower than with the stock ROM? The Audio Manager works fine for me from both the tab and from start->programs. What changes have you made, or third party apps have you installed?
There needs to be a regedit app installed.

Well, I'm not sure it needs to be in the ROM. However, as I get further away from scott's original ROM, I'll be installing some freeware apps that I use regularly that I consider must haves. One will have a registry editor.
The quick access menu that I've been used to is gone, would be nice to see the Contacts and some of the others that are in the "start" menu that are used frequently still show up there. The used applications are cleared when the phone is shut off and restarted, so when you try to get to a previously used app, you need to go back through the menu selections to find it again.

I doubt that I'll ever add quick menu to this ROM, but I'll start offering a kitchen soon. I actually like the startclean app. I don't turn my phone off very often. When I do, it's because I want to clear everything.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=251164
You can remove start clean from Windows\Start Up. You'll also be able to disable this in the kitchen.
A GPS app would be nice as well. I couldn't get the Google Maps to find any satellites though.

GoogleMaps is installed. I don't know of any other free ones that work better. Although maybe I'm unclear on what you mean GPS app? Make sure that you have GPS on under services under phone-> options. I usually am able to get a sattelite fine. What radio are you using?

I tested this by letting my battery running all the way down, before I released the ROM. I didn't have any problems. Also no problems with the clock. What changes have you made, or third party apps have you installed?

I just had to test and was surprised to find that worked from the today screen. My phone has a start button, which I always used for this. It looks like TouchFlo takes control of the OK button. Sorry. I'd recommend using the start button on your phone, if you have one. I'll fix it if I can.
Also I have the callhistory.exe file how to I get the Voice button to open it?

This worked on the stock ROM? From the today screen, this seems to open the voice memo recorder for me. You might try a hardware button configuration program.

I believe that scott made the scroll bar narrower, because this ROM was mostly supposed to be navigatable by finger. I would recommend using the scroll wheel or the dpad when possible. I actually prefer to have more screen than more scroll bar. However, here are the registry tweaks:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GWE]
"cyHScr"=dword:13
"cxVScr"=dword:13
"cyVScr"=dword:13
"cxHScr"=dword:13
You'll be able to disable the narrow scroll bar in the kitchen. You can also install a 12 pixel scroll bar from the included ROM pack, under Apps.

Well, in my version, the Task Manager is already installed in the ROM. I wouldn't recommend installing the cab for it. Truthfully, the only other cab that I've tested is the Opal Style Comm Manager, which works fine. I don't care for the other apps.
You should definitely install them one at a time. I'm not sure how to even install multiple cabs at one time. You likely only want to install one carrier cab, also. My screen align works fine.
Great work. Looking forward eagerly to the next release, and the kitchen.
I have a problem. When I set up my gmail on my phone it won't receive messages. It always worked on DCD and I don't understand why it would just up and quit working. I haven't tried any other emails though because they changed the system at work from groupwise to exchange and I don't know the new servers since I am on break til the 5th. Has anyone been able to set up email on their phones? I feel so disconnected.
When is the next update going to be released? It is after the holidays.
Happy New Year!
I'm getting the same issue as Elizle. Pocket Outlook is having trouble connecting with the incoming mail server. Connecting to Gmail IMAP using FlexMail seems to work, but I'm not accustomed to its interface. I miss the integration with M2D.

It's weird that you're both having problems with gmail. I guess I'll have to get a gmail account and see if I can figure out the problem. If anything, I would expect this ROM to work better, as I included "Windows Mobile 6.1 Hotfix for Sending POP and IMAP E-mail (KB958639)". I'll let you know what I find. Thanks for the feedback.
Custom Rom: TripnMIUI 1.0 Final

try vignette for flash.
vignette isn't working. with the MIUI camera the dev's instructions are to switch off full screen due to some glitch that causes no picture. when i load this camera application i receive the same glitch, can not see picture what so ever.
i explored the settings in the app and there is no appropriate selection to be able to switch as i would with the MIUI camera. it seems this app isn't compatible with the rom.
I use the LED light app and just leave the light on while I take a pic >.>...
LED app like Torch? to activate the camera flash like an independent flash light?
Tried Torch, the app crashed. So I uninstalled it. Currently searching the market to see if anything is going to be compatible here. There must be some sort of fix as this flash problem wasnt listed in the dev's build release notes.
I use this https://market.android.com/details?id=jp.picolyl.led_light
even has a widget I put on my desktop... walk around my house at night like this...
i was hoping that would work
but it didn't
app installs. app loads. when i turn on the flash, nothing happens
leads me to assume there has to be a patch, because again, it must be rom related
Vignette seems to work for me. I have it set to auto flash and it comes on when I touch the screen.
Or is the point that you would rather use the miui camera?
Sorry if I misunderstood
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
when i start up Vignette i have absolutely no picture. just distorted colored stripes across the screen.
the miui camera was indicated as being faulty in full screen mode. within the release notes there were instructions to open the settings within MIUI camera and change off of full screen to resolve the picture issue.
as per developers ROM documentation:
Known bugs:
- Phone reboots when you press exit in Root Explorer (not included)
- MIUI camera has messed up screen (fix this by going into miui cam settings and turn off "Full screen"
that issue is the exact same thing that I am experiencing in Vignette. with MIUI camera i was able to make the appropriate change and restore full picture.
with Vignette no option presents itself to enable me to do this. i dont necessarily care which app i use to take pictures as long as i am able to operate the flash and sustain full camera functionality.
both miui camera the stock camera are not functioning with flash for me. i have set to automatic within miui camera and even still the flash fails to initiate.
even if i switch to "ON" within MIUI camera that doesn't work either. the stock camera app has no flash control option in its settings. and so far the third party apps i've tried such as "camera 360" resulted in a message saying my phone doesn't have flash. and Vignette was not resolving picture. i was unable to locate a respective setting similar to that of MIUI camera to initiate a functional view. therefore was forced to uninstall
Attached a temporary solution
Slightly improved brightness over my original: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=996973
I'm working on flashlight fix to work with vignette. Hopefully Trip will fix it too in next release
nice thanks. would this apk just manually be pushed through ADB to sytem/apps? or do i have the option to install straight from SD?
im going to go ahead and try this out. thanks again.
side note: is it correct to assume a pending update for this build considering it was released as a "final version" it would be nice to see some fixes implemented to further stability and full functionality.
another issue ive experienced over the past couple days back and forth between this rom is particularly when files are in midst of being transferred to sd card. but not limited to. the phone seems to force reboot. and this does not cease. case in point. i initiated sd mounting and upon hitting confirm, phone went into power cycle.
update: *Torch works perfect. I hit thanks

I have bought the depreciated version and even though it works great on latest MIUI, flash still doesn't work.
so .... like you said .... depreciated?
turns out it doesn't work after all. wonderful
i can understand the picture part working, unlike the demo. but if flash doesn't work. it doesn't turn out to be an all in one solution. flash is the issue here. i can utilize either miui or even stock camera for the pictures. its the flash that is giving complications.

Use the torch app with it
i guess the torch app will suffice. its going to have to because every app ive tried doesn't recognize the flash function. its a smart work around.
i noticed an update pack released for the rom hopefully flash will be noted for a fix sometime in the future. thanks everyone

I don't think it worked with any roms did it? I don't even think it worked with stock
your right. it never worked. with anything.
although i must say i never tested it on 6.1.3 rom release. but with stock it was working for me. at least it would turn on
I'll preface with this:
1. I am not a dev.
2. I don't intend to take credit away from any of the CM7 devs.
3. I don't intend to take credit for any of the solutions posted here.
I like to keep up with the main thread, but it has become a little unruly, with the same questions being asked and answered repeatedly. I was thinking we could keep this thread as something of a troubleshooting thread, with known problems and solutions in the OP, in an attempt to keep the main CM7 thread (here) a bit more organized for dev related stuff.
Mods, if this thread is in the wrong forum or inappropriate, feel free to deal with it accordingly.

Current Version: RC1.4 (MR2/2.5 Radio Only)
Merged to Mainline: No
Wipe Required: No if upgrading from RC1.2 or RC1.3 (although if you are having ANY problems, first troubleshooting step is to reinstall following a complete wipe). Yes if you are coming from ANY OTHER PREVIOUS VERSION OR ROM
Problems With Known Fixes
Problem:
I just installed CM7, where is the Market?!
Solution:
Not a problem, you just have to install gapps.
- Easiest way is to download and install through ROM Manager: Rom Manager -> Download ROM -> Google Apps.
- Alternatively, you can download and install manually. Link. Flash using Recovery.
Problem:
GPS is not getting a fix
Solution:
1. Be sure that you are on RC1.2, and that you did a full wipe prior to installing.
2. Backup CM7 in Clockwork Recovery.
3. Do a full wipe.
4. Flash a Sense based ROM, such as BAMF.
5. Boot into the Sense based ROM that you flashed in Step 4, and obtain a GPS fix.
6. While your GPS is locked, reboot to recovery. (Hold Power -> Reboot to Recovery)
7. Do a full wipe.
8. Restore the CM7 backup you made in step 1.
9. Boot into CM7. Your GPS should now be working.
Problem:
Inaccurate signal bars/I only have two bars on LTE
Solution:
FIXED ON RC1.3
Problem:
Non-GPS geolocation is (very) inaccurate
Solution:
wraithdu said:
The inaccurate non-GPS location can be fixed by turning on WiFi (does not need to be connected, just ON). Obviously a temporary fix, but works for me - I can get location now in Beautiful Widgets, SiMi Clock, The Weather Channel, and the browser. I increased my WiFi scan interval to 3 minutes to try and help battery. But it beats getting the weather for Guam.

Problem:
Choppy Netflix playback
Solution:
Netflix now has official Thunderbolt support. Install the updated Netflix App from the Market.
Problem:
Unlock lag and/or no backlit softkeys
Solution:
Turn off auto brightness, should take care of both of these issues. (thanks to Mustang302LX)
Problems With Fixes of Questionable Effectiveness
Problem:
Problems with in-browser flash
Solution:
chmod 000 /data/data/com.android.browser/app_plugins/com.adobe.flashplayer/.macromedia/Flash_Player/config.data
Varying reports of this working/not working
Problem:
Low volume
Solution:
Since perception of volume is subjective, it's difficult to say whether or not this is a true problem, and whether or not it's been fixed. Slayher has stated that it's been fixed since one of the earlier releases. Another possible solution is here (credit to utkanos), which has been used with varying results - again, volume perception is subjective.
Problem:
Included wireless tethering not working
Solution:
From what I've seen, you will be able to connect to the wireless network, but you will not be able to obtain an IP address. I have found that forcing an IP release/renew upon connecting generally takes care of this problem. On Windows, this can be done with the following:
1. Start -> Run -> "cmd"
2. ipconfig /release
3. ipconfig /renew
Problems Without Known Fixes
Problem:
Streaming audio over bluetooth is choppy

OK, post problems (and fixes, if there are any) and I'll do my best to keep the OP updated in an attempt to keep the main dev thread more organized. When posting an issue, please include:
CM7 version
Kernel
Radio
Wipe
all aosp roms including gingerbread roms reads data strength instead of cellar radio strength. that's why it appears to have less bars. if you search there are mods i believe to give you the appearance of higher signal strength on the forums here.
cm7 and Netflix issues
I believe this is a CM7 issue, as it only happens with is rom and previous versions but I'm not sure if its FPS or just choppiness but Id like to get this fixed other fixes like chmod 000 have not worked.
On a different note I would like to thank everyone involved with CM7 its by far the best ROM.
Thank You Devs.

This is also true for embedded flash videos. If I use the chmod 000 it skips if I go above 360 but it works. Older versions don't let me go above 360 because the video menu, it just closes whenever I open it.
The one issue that bugs me the most about this ROM is that it does not find my location correctly. Not talking about GPS because that works perfectly, but how I'm found through the network does not work. Google Maps works perfectly at finding my location but apps like fancy widget and even google.com locate me in different places.
I live in Buffalo, NY but my phone insists I move frequently around the world. First I'm in Fort Wayne, IN, then Houston, TX, then Nairobi, Kenya, and sometimes in Lawndale, CA.
Something's wrong and no one seems to have a fix that'll work for me. I'm assuming that's cause no one cares about it because its so miniscule.
Tried different radios and GPS status but nothing has worked.
Fix? Slayher?
I am absolutely loving this rom, I flashed it on my girls Droid x and instantly had to have it on my tbolt. GPS works great, more than great, and no other issues except two things.
First, when streaming Pandora or slacker through bt the skip like crazy, but when played through the phones speaker they're fine. No big deal.
Secondly I must be doing something wrong because my battery life is terrible. I have an extended battery that the phone ate through in 8 hours moderate use. And my stock battery is dropping about 30% an hour...
I'm not a noob with screen time out to 10 mins and brightness all the way up, so its got to have something to do with my CPU settings. I'm using set CPU to over clock to 1450. Tried different goveners. I assume there's different kernels out there I'm gonna have to try out, what kernel is included? Running mr2 ota
Sent from my ThunderBolt using XDA App
Cm7. 2
Stock kernel
OTA radio
Full wipe
Volume is too low. Volfix. Zip hasnt worked for me. Otherwise Cm7 is flawless.
Yes i cleaned my ears.
Suggestions?
Thanks for this thread and to the devs for their work

What rom were you running before, and did you wipe?
In any case, easiest solution would be to install GAPPS from ROM Manager.
Can't seem to connect to my home wifi network. Anyone else experience this issue?
From looking through the main thread, saw one suggestion, which didn't work for me: post 7360
OTA MR2; full wipe; RC1.1; gapps; set up accounts; cache wipe; RC1.2

Try a full wipe before installing 1.2. I believe that was recommended by slayher.
Is it only your home wifi, or are you having trouble with all wifi connectivity?
problem: voice to text works intermittently and not at all with any background noise
corrective solutions taken that haven't corrected problem: installed talkback, kickback and google voice search.
CM 1.2
OTA radio
stock kernel
full partition wipe, also formatted SD prior to install
Let's merge our threads, yeah?

Didn't think it would matter. Did a full wipe and reinstalled -- everything working okay now. Thanks
Installed CM7 and purchased ROM Manager Premium. I enabled advanced mode in settings. But I still can't download Cyanogenmod ROMs via ROM Manager? It doesn't appear in the list. Anyone have a similar problem, and preferably a solution? What's going on? Thanks.

it's not officially supported by cyanogenmod yet, therefore you can't obtain it via ROM manger.
you can find CM 1.2 here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1049542
make sure you download the ROM and the Gapps
Oh ok, thanks!

I'm interested to know the answer to this battery issue. Which kernel is best for battery life/stability? I'm running stock right now, but I really haven't ran it long enough to get good usage stats.
Has anyone had luck getting Huluplus working on classicnerd? I have the modded apk file, I've removed the hosts file, but it still wont play because of the ads needing to load.
Not sure whats causing the blockage at this point as all the old tricks from Xron aren't working.
Anyone have any luck?
If you flash it, they will.... ok, that just doesn't work.
You can get Hulu to work via the web with a modified Flash but I wouldn't bother until they get hardware acceleration working. It's not really watchable and just stutters and locks up.
I haven't been able to get the Hulu apk to work on any ics based rom for the Touchpad no matter what I try.
If you absolutely must have Hulu on the touchpad at this point, I hate to say it, but you are probably just better off with a Gingerbread based ROM.
Or do a simple restart and boot into webOS. That's the beauty of it.......people go through so much trouble trying to make things work on the "Touchpad" that already do.....just takes 2 minutes to restart, then Skype works, Camera Works, Hulu works!!! Pretty cool.
I agree with webOS for now. There is nothing wrong with booting into that until the hardware decoding gets worked out. At least this gets us by unit then.

It's baked in under phone and video calls. Under settings tab you can find accounts where you can log in.

thanks, i'll try that when i get home. i was looking for it earlier and was stumped.
Sorry if this thread already exists.
You have no idea how happy I am this ROM exists!! But I cannot get SMS working. I get FC's on every SMS app I try including Hangouts. Anybody else getting this and/or have a remedy? Thanks
I was about to post the same error here, I have an Amaze with Videotron, S-Off, Super CID, HBOOT-1.93.2222 (JuopunutBear), TWRP as a recovery.
I tried everything, I tried different Gapps, I also tried without installing Gapps, I tried sms apps from the Play Store and Hangouts too. The only thing I haven't tried is formatting my internal SD card. (it was a clean install, all formatted and cache cleared). I also tried switching to ART but I had the same problems.
Everytime I try to just open the sms apps, the app crashes. I managed to see the error once and it was something about SQL but it might be a misinterpretation from my part.
Calls, 4G and WiFi were all working perfectly too.
After some research on Google, I tried installing busybox, xposed framework and uninstalling Voice+, but nothing works. The basic messaging app just closes without any kind of message and other apps show that it stopped working.
(I tried the Evervolv rom 4.4 and SMS were working on that one, maybe it's a setting with my network type as I am on Videotron in Canada and it is using AWS, maybe a setting under *#*#4636*#*# ??)
I want to contribute and sen some log of that error, how can I do that? I am familiar with roms, kernels, etc but not that much with logs... I tried many roms before and never got that specific problem...
Thanks to anyone who can help with this issue!
It's not just you SMS simply doesn't work on this rom and I was surprised to see that no one else pointed this out in the original thread. The default Messaging app closes immediately when you try and open it. Other SMS apps also crash either immediately upon opening them, or when you try to send a message (hangouts & SMS Pro for example). This is the only thing keeping me from using this amazing rom as my DD.
I have the same exact problem with SMS- will try the evervolv 4.4 though was really looking forward to CM11
Edit: also didnt have any other problems with the rom except for the black boxes and the camera
Let's hope there is a way to fix it!
I would post the question in the official thread but I do not have enough posts to do so unfortunately
Heck I couldn't even try SMS due to the black box issue, that's why I didn't mention it in the original thread.
For those with the black box issue--are you using the correct gapps?
In olden days there were some issues with some google things not working, and people uninstalling the ones that came in gapps and downloading them fresh from the play store.
Have you gone into recovery and fixed permissions?
Again, in days of yore, this might straighten some things out.
Is it possible that black-boxing has something to do with CPU frequency, and is it possible to tweak up the speed through developer options and lose the boxes?
I haven't tried this rom yet, as I'm currently sticking with the stable(r) cm10.
Good luck.
anybody get the SMS working on this ROM so far?

The black box issue has nothing to do with GPU or CPU speeds. There are discussions on the dev threads. The issue affects other legacy devices on various KK based source builds, not just Amaze and CM. The consensus is this seems to be related to the default browser which has changed in KK. This would also explain why it effects other gapps too.

Not that I'm aware of.
Media Issues
The ROM is pretty good for the most part.
I just have this problem where Play Music gives this error, "Cannot play the music track you requested"
I clear my media storage and try to rescan my SD card but none of the apps work. They all crash.
Is there anyway to fix this?

Yes you can its on last three pages of orignal thread you also have to sign up for that

as the OP says and i quote that only non working things are
1. camera exposure
2. tethering
but as the thread goes ahead we read more prolems/bugs
May i ask what is the current status for bugs/not working and other issues and what has been fixed and any other stuff we should flash over the ROM like driver, may it be upoaded to the OP for ease as its reall hard to search for those things on mobile app. thank you and good luck.
Anyone else have issue disabling their microphone while in a call? I tried with both the speaker phone and regular handset mode, the "no mic" icon enables but my caller can still hear me. The Hold button seems to work fine though.
FYI, it took a while for the battery to figure itself out. I wiped the battery stats before flashing everything and the first few days I got a lot of jumping battery levels. I let it charge all the way down as much as I could then rebooted and did a full charge and rebooted again and then full charge again. That seemed to reset the battery level to the correct state.
I also , enabled Device/GPS only for the location detection other wise the google services at 50% or more battery.
I'm running the 2014-02-16 build, with the updated video drivers.
Camera is not working
I have also installed this pacman rom 4.4.2. all is well instead of camera.
Any updates for the camera isssue??

Since PAC uses the CM device tree for its source any issues with CM will also be evident in PAC. Until the CM devs are able to resolve the camera exposure issue it will exist in both ROMs.

Think about your question for a minute. Have you seen any recent posts in the CM dev thread indicating an update which solves this issue? If you had just taken a moment to look at the dev thread instead of posting this you would have answered your own question. It's not like the CM-11 thread is incredibly long, it's only 28 pages total. This post is just laziness on your part and an unnecessary waste of bandwidth.
is there any alternate app in the market, i tried couple of apps but nothing useful
@Odysseus1962
If I were to compile AOSP, which variant would you suggest for me to build?
