Hi guys my phone is week old and I flashed with void, prime v2 and [DEV][UNOFFICIAL][beta4 online] CyanogenMod 7 (Android 2.3.3) , and I wish to report 3 bugs I have found till now in [DEV][UNOFFICIAL][beta4 online] CyanogenMod 7 (Android 2.3.3)
1st.
battery doesn't stay for long comparing to other roms though it's a new handset. It doesn't stay for more then 10 hours (standby, 3g and data enabled)
2nd.
I cannot charge the handset while it's off as the cell turns on whenever I plug the charger. It's kind of annoying.
3rd
Bluetooth file receive doesn't work some of the time.
atleast plz fix the battery drain issue and charging problem.
Thanks.

For the 3rd issue,its normal.My Bluetooth can't send stuffs too.For the first 2 reasons,the CM7 Rom is still in beta.Give it a little more time.
Well thanks for your reply man . But the bluetooth creates problem while receiving file.
And I found another bug in fm radio the interface is wired. First there is no option of auto scanning and whenever I turn on the radio out starts the bluetooth. don't know why.
btw I know the rom is in beta right now, I was reporting the bug sorry if I have offended anyone.

It's OK....
I've tried all the above roms ( you mentioned ) and more( nessy, etc ) and ever since I used mik's cm7 beta roms, I always end up comming back to it at the end of the day.
For bluetooth, use BLUETOOTH FILE TRANSFER .... you can browse your PC's bluetooth transfer folder with it, and the 1st & 2nd are known problems,....I hope mik's fixing it in the next release.....
Oh yeah, for battery drain, switch off wifi, 3g, data when not in use.

Thanks for your reply man.
you are right about getting back to CM7. As for me this is the only rom where app2sd+ really work with darktremor
and one more thing I have noticed internat memory decrease with other roms no matter what i do. but with CM7 it doesnt happen....
I have checked the terminal for a2sd after intalling other roms ---everything looks ok. but if I update map or install opera web browser, the internal memory decreases.
Can you help me with this?
In terminal emulator type:
su (hit enter)
a2sd cachesd (hit enter)

its already done man. as is said before i have done
a2sd cachesd
a2sd cachesdreset
as stated in darktremor thread
but still installing such application as opera maps eats up the internal memory but the cm7 is somehow exeption in this.
you can try installing opera web browser and check yourself in your custom rom bassed on froyo..... void, nessy, lol etc....
and you will notice 8mb+ decresed in your internal memory....and you can get back that space by uninstalling it again...
it doesn't really matter if a2sd and delvik-cache is on, still app like this eats up internal memory... May be its a bug or Its how Froyo is....
Your memory SHOULD decrease even if you have darktremor. Why? Because data/data is not caching. What you should do? 2 options.
1. Do a
Code:
su
a2sd datasd
but DONT do it on a slow mem card. It will make the phone so slow that it will be unusable. Also w8 a lot of time. I used it on a class 4 microsd and it was aufull
2. Manually simlinc large folders that dont need speed. Like tango, or other large stuff you dont use often and dont use space.
I use a script to check data/data space with the help of gscript
Code:
su
cd /
cd data
cd data
du -k -s * | sort -k1 g
that will give you the space sum that files in each directory in data/data occupie in descending order.
Locate what directory you want to move to sd.
make a new directory in /system/sd/datadata
Copy the folder you want to move to sd card to /system/sd/datadata
delete the old directory from data/data
symlinc /system/sd/datadata/diryoumoved to /data/data/diryoumoved
Ya thanks for the tip but we m I not facing this issue in cm7?
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA Premium App
I dont know how is cm7 do the a2sd thingy. Maybe they move the hole app data and data/data to sd... What sd do you use? what class?
sorry if I'm somewhat off topic.
1. Where is the DEV/Unofficial/CM7 for V?

2. Does incoming SMS work now?

EDIT AGAIN:
This "[DEV][UNOFFICIAL][beta4 online] CyanogenMod 7 (Android 2.3.3)" forum is posted under "LG Optimus One, P500, V > Optimus One, P500 Android Development" forum.
Is this for the V or One?
The Optimus V forum is for Optimus V. P500 is for Optimus one.Is that what you wanna know?

What we have here is a set of images to flash to your Nook and run Honeycomb on your internal storage. (Currently based on Deeper_Blue's v02) The method for installing is the same as for Nookie Froyo on EMMC (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=926749)
To Install HC to your Nook Color flash CWR to your sd card (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=922870)
Copy the two image files to the sd card.
Boot to CWR and ADB Shell into your NC.
Run the following commands to flash Honeycomb:
mount data
mount sdcard
rm /data/* -r
dd if=/sdcard/hcboot.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p1
dd if=/sdcard/hcsystem.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p5
reboot
ATTENTION! Do not use CWR to format your SD card, also remove your SD card after installation so it will boot to HC and not CWR!
I would like to thank MattJ951 for his work with Samuelhauf on getting the uRamdisk working to boot, and Deeper_blue for porting honeycomb to the Nook Color. (If i have forgotten anyone PM me and I will give credit!)

same question here!
HC v3, eMMC 1100 kernel, launcherpro.
Smooth.
Tried converting data and cache to ext4. No go. Seems deeperblue hasn't added ext4 support to his kernel yet..
By the way, no problem with v3.
You must have missed something while copying system. Maybe your partition was too small..

The internal storage on the nook (flash memory) rather than SD Card
can someone help me out here. im booted from sd into cwr, and when i try and run the command "mount sdcard" it says it failed no such file or directory.
i built the sdcard per the instructions. anyone have an idea what is wrong?

Did you not have a rotation problem (i.e. it never rotated to the side you were using, always one past) with v03?

You don't use dd images with CWR (actually you might be able to, but i prefer my way).
You download a nookie froyo sd image (or just use your honeycomb one and add the two images to the sd partition of it (You can adb push them or just use your computer to copy them).
Then open up a terminal emulator (i believe there is one in dev tools) and type these commands:
dd if=/sdcard/hcboot.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p1
dd if=/sdcard/hcsystem.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p5
Also as Sam said
DO NOT FORMAT YOUR SD CARD FROM INSIDE THE NOOK COLOR please update the OP saying this
Most excellent! I will be giving this a try shortly (at work now but RDC home to start the download!)
Question: Any plans to "update" to deeper-blue's V03 image? I know it's a "preview" right now so perhaps you are waiting for a more stable release???
Thanks!
V3 is flawless here. Check you don't get: nit enough space error, while copying system..
Ill probably make a flashable version of v4..

I restored my nook to Stock 1.01 yesterday after a random catastrophic failure with my previously stable 1.01 AN setup; so, I'm ready to try anything.
The choices are HC v3, Froyo 0.6.6, or the 1.1 AN setup.
1) How difficult would it be to update these emmc HC images to v3?
2) Which of the three options is the most stable for the following?
--ADW Launcher
--Clockwork Mod / ROM Manager
--HQ Youtube app
--Market (AppBrain as well)
--Gmail w/calendar sync (I use the Pure Grid Calendar app)
--Xscope browser / Dolphin HD
--Aldiko 2.0
--Live Wallpapers
--Scrollable widgets
--Rockplayer
--Perfect Viewer (for comics)
--WidgetLocker
--Tapatalk
--Su/Superuser apps (Root Explorerer, Terminal, Wireless adb, etc)
--TV Shows Stream
--Angry Birds (all versions)
3) Which capabilities does HC v3 still lack?
4) Do any of these options have a global copy/paste capability?
5) Do any of them have working Flash 10.1 (for apps like TV Shows Stream, or Droid Stremer Pro)?

Eclair is by the most stable but lacking flash. Froyo supports flash but has some issues with talpatalk (at least for me). Honeycomb is more of a PoC and you will get a lot of crashes on some apps.

That's about right. Though I haven't had any trouble with Froyo and Tapatalk (XDA does crash, on the other hand).
HC v3 on eMMC probably is my favourite experience so far with the NC. Although, I'm most certainly not objective, as HC is very new, compared to our old Froyo buddy..
If I had to choose, taking under account your criterions, I would go with Froyo. Perfect blend of stability and performance.. As Matt said, HC is very nice, but still isn't stable enough for the average user.. HC, as of right now, should only be installed for the thrill of it, or to start dev'ing around..
Eclair? Well, it's ok. But without flash, it can't possibly be an option. You might as well buy an iPad (sarcasm)..
PS: v4? Pretty soon, I guess...

Alright, excellent! Thanks for the feedback... it sounds like I'll be going for Froyo on emmc tonight!
Do you see any apps in my list above that I might have problems with?
I've compiled a simple app to be able to easily mount to your PC any given partition.
Feel free to donate if this app is of any use to you. Much appreciated.
Please note that changes to the drive will not be saved if you do not properly unmount/eject the drive from PC (in Ubuntu: right click, unmount. In Windows, eject.).
For those using stock browser, apk files often fail to download.. You can install Astro explorer and activate downloads in settings (last option). Then you should be able to download this file.
Dolphin should work without issues..
This is a Beta release.
This requires a working root (su). By that I mean your nook must be rooted. Regarding HC, see j4mm3r's thread.
This can be used, for example, to open your SD or internal data on your PC..
You can mount pretty much any partition to your computer with this app:
- SD
- Media (internal drive for your media and documents...)
- SD Partitions (up to 4)
- Internal storage - BE VERY CAREFUL WITH THIS!!
There are two "mount points" on the nook (lun0 and lun1)
So you can simultanously mount two partitons.
As an example, you can mount SD on 1st and MEDIA on the 2nd.
Each mount point has it's own tab.
Please try it out and post feedback.
Thank you.
EDIT (13.02.2011):
This has been tested on HoneyComb and Froyo (not in Eclair 1.0>1.1).
In Froyo: USB Mass Storage (Notification bar) should be turned off.
Compatibility mode will need to be disabled in Spare parts (reboot required).
If this doesn't work for you, try entering manually in ADB while NC plugged in to your PC:
Code:
adb shell
echo /dev/block/mmcblk0p8 > /sys/devices/platform/usb_mass_storage/lun0/file
And post result here.
Sam
----------------
UPDATES:
13-02-2011: 0.2b => minor bugs and made app scrollable for Froyo Landscape
26-02-2011: 0.3b:
- Changed 'settings' label (mistake) to system.
- Added a "Make sure you properly unmount/eject drive from PC when finished" message when mounting.
- Added dual boot system and data (p9 and p10).
- Changed 'Confirm mounting' to 'Confirm', as poster suggested. Thanks.

Hmm can't quite seen to get it to work right. The app does nothing for me when I select a partition to mount. I can get the SD card mounted via android's USB connected notification. I've tried the app with it turned on and off. It's got super user, so that's not it. By the way, I'm running Froyo 6.7 off the eMMC. Let me know what to try.
EDIT: Got it to work after running the ADB command in 1st post. Awesome app, thanks.
Sam,
Thank You, you program made my day. It works great, I have been messing with vold.fstab for days and I could only mount the boot of my sdcard. So, I went with manually pushing file to /sys/devices/platform/usb_mass_storage/luno/file which worked but your app make the process much better.
Again Thank you for everything you have done.

Could this work as a Xbox media storage? I want to get a new demo, and I got no Hard Drive
Works great!
this is great! i was thinking (since your help in the other thread) about trying to cobble something like this together myself in android app creator suite but didnt know if i could manage or not. Now i dont need to even try! thank!
EDIT: 2 things, one, is it possible to have this setting survive a reboot? and secondly, is the display supposed to be tiny? it only fills like a third of the screen and is centered at the top. this is on emmc froyo 0.6.7 the screen is scrollable as you said so just have to scroll down for the confirmed button
Does it unmount them on the nook when they are attached to the PC? I was playing with the echo command and it seems that the nook is unable to see any changes to the filesystem. I wrote a script that unmount them then runs the echo statement. Then another script that remount them once they are disconnected.
Good question. As I said, this is beta. I'm open to any suggestion. From what I tested, changes did actually occur even when mounted on android..
Unchecked compatibility mode in spare parts and reboot for fullscreen..

Interesting. I did see that if you try to download / install directly from the HC browser it doesn't work. Perhaps people do this instead of trying with their computer and assume it doesn't work? Downloads don't equal successful installs.
For Windows users, it (currently) provides the only way to mount the 4th partition of my HC SD card. Am I mistaken? Perhaps others don't realize what this is or are put off by the UI?
Keep it up. This is a much needed utility ATM.
The UI isn't THAT awful, is it?
Anyway, this can help a lot of people, especially the ones not too familiar with ADB..

To a person familar with partitions and the android file system it's fine. To those expecting a more fruity / friendly UI, it's far from it. However, you can't please everyone and it might be a waste of your energy to try. It's practical / functional and that's all I need it to be.
Indeed it can, much preferred over ADB even though I can use it just fine. You might want to make it more clear in the OP that users that have problems may need to type "adb shell" before the echo command. Not everyone will know this.
You app works well Sam! I can finally access my media partition via USB. I am looking forward to updates. Perhaps retaining setting after a reboot? Great work man!
Works great! I downloaded it with dolphin browser (running froyo on emmc) Then used root explorer to navigate to downloads and just clicked to install. Doesn't get any easier than that!
Would it be possible to have it mount media partitions? Like if I have dual boot setup would it be possible to mount the extra partitions to edit them?
Which media partitions?
Right, forgot about dual booters.. I'll implement that in 0.3..
Thanks.

I want to thank you so much for this samuelhalff. I mean it. Something like this that may seem trivial to someone who can just do it means a WORLD to someone like me and i truly truly appreciate it. The devs/peeps here have made my little wanna be ereader ((hehe)) a great honeycomb tablet. I think its great for someone that cant afford the next great thing **xoom** to be able to join in the tech fun. You all have made me very happy with my little tablet.

Love the app!!!! but i got a issue now... There is no way for me to browse the media partition on the device... so I can not access my pictures that I placed on the internal storage...any insight?
Working great for me, HC on eMMC. Appreciate it!

after using a2sd script not all the data go to sdcard, right? some still remain @ internal?
so whats the best gingerbread to run on the p500? are there many bugs or fc's or anything? should i just stick to 2.2(.x)
great place to ask... but will the questions be answered right away?
i thought at first, as the title implies...
right after clicking the link, i thought i will see steps and procedures and best bets for GB ports and ROMS... but somehow.. its not the idea...
i guess we should rename the title... GB discussions of some sort...
because this cant be the thread with a guide to install something....
just my 2 cents.

Yes. Your choice of ROM has no effect on the SIM unlock. I have an Optimus T that I unlocked from T mobile and I have installed lots of different ROMS and it has remained unlocked.

Hello everyone, I'm having an "issue" with CM7. Someone made a wifi fix for Beta 1, and now Beta 2 has a fix itself and it's all fine except I have to give the terminal superuser permission in order for it to work.
I was wondering if there's a way for it to automatically give permission as I have to write su everytime I turn my phone on and that's a bit lame :x
su is the root command. Whenever you want root access, you type su. It is made this way because the shell does not need root for all commands. So you may want to browse your folders via shell, and you wont need su for that.
In all linux distros, and unix too, you type su when needing root access... that's the way it works. Be happy that you don't need to type the admin password whenever going root via su, as you would in linux/unix.

No, you don't have to be a superuser for it to work. The "su" command is just needed to check if the fix is working. If you just run the command "iwconfig wlan0" the terminal gives back to you wrong values, due to the lack of superuser command. But it doesn't mean the power management or the txpower are not working.

i tried cavemans, the multitouch is still buggy.. i think cavemans only fixes the touch response. sippollos uses cavemans touch fix and miks multitouch fix
i dnt play much games on o1 lol.
Its like very childish ..
Thank you for the reply guys.
I followed the Amon_RA recovery port..
In here: h t t p://androidforums.com/getitnowmarketing/221388-custom-recovery-optimus-one-p500-thunderg.html#post1896517
I am confused where is ADB shell or terminal?
Download terminal from market.
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App
Now I'm confused....when you say that you have followed the amon_ra recovery method, and yet you ask what is ADB... how did you do it ...
If I assume correctly, then you want to follow the amon_ra method...right?
in that case check this out :
http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/what-is-adb-and-how-to-install-it-android/
for usb drivers, use the lg tool to download the usb drivers and then either install them manually or use lg tool to install them.
After that follow amon_ra method...
Guys, I am using a terminal emulator downloaded from the market which seems easier initially(In case this wont work, Ill go with hell1134's suggestion).
hell1134, sorry, I was quite confusing, I mean I am going to follow yet amon_ra
How to put the flash_image.img and recovery-RA-GNM-thunderg-1.1.0.img to the root of my SD card? It says cannot copy, write-protected or access denied... The scenario is I extracted the zip files downloaded from the site and then copy and pasted the two image files to the SD card.
Sorry, I am still newbie about these stuffs. Please help..
copy the 2 zip to root of sd
and also extract them (on sd)
then follow instructions
@ ciolnadu
Hahaha! I dont know if I got it right but I reformatted my SD card through Windows XP reformatting so it cleaned my SD card. Then I downloaded again the two zip files to my hard disk drive and extracted the two image files to the newly reformatted SD card.
Ok...now I get the picture...
To put the flash_image.img and recovery-RA-GNM-thunderg-1.1.0.img to the root of my SD card, connect your phone to your PC with usb cable. A notification will come on your phone where there will be an option to " turn on USB storage " -> select/click it.
It will immediately turn orange and there will be another option to " turn off USB storage ". Do not click it.
Yor phone will be recognised as mass storage device by your PC. Copy the flash_image.img and recovery-RA-GNM-thunderg-1.1.0.img files to the mass storage ( like any other usb storage device like pen drive ). MAKE SURE IT IS NOT PLACE IN ANY FOLDER.
Now on the phone click " turn off usb storage " on phone and disconnect from your PC.
Well...that puts those files to your sd card's root.
Edit: Oops ... guess was a bit late ..
One advice....try to format the SD card via phone settings...might remove most sd card related problems.
@ hell1134
That is what I did and they are pasted now =)
Now I am using the Terminal Emulator and Wifi Keyboard to follow and apply the terminal codes (quite confusing for a newbie indeed but I should manage ^^ ). Now the problem is I am stuck with the code:
# mv /system/etc/install-recovery.sh /system/etc/install-recovery.sh.bak
It says, "failed on '/system/etc/install-recovery.sh' - No such file or directly
What shall I do guys? Am I missing something?
Update:
Quoted from "Getitnowmarketing" answering to the same experienced from another user there:
You dont want that file there as it keeps recovery from "sticking" its not in all roms usually there ater you do an ota update. That command removes it. If its not there move on to next step.
>.< So seems my ROM hasnt it, so I must proceed to the next command
Update:
I am already rebooted to the Recovery Menu. I'm so excited hahaha!^^ (noob me)
I am doing a Nand Backup + Ext + Android Secure
Ill keep you updated guys. Thanks!
Gentlemen,
Lately I have found myself experimenting with Debian on my beloved Leo. It's very much WIP, but even right now it may be fun to play around for some. And most of the stuff that *doesn't* work, well, solutions are in the line of sight.
I won't have time to finish it anytime soon. So, partly in hope someone will join the effort, and partly to simply make sure I won't lose effects of my work in the darkest corners of my hard drive, I upload it as it is.
It's very much bare-bones Debian Unstable system. To install it, copy all three unpacked files (rootfs.ext4, zImage, initrd.gz) to "debian" directory on your SD card. Then, choose this directory in MAGLDR settings. Then boot from SD.
It boots directly into the desktop and allows you to connect to wifi and launch terminal (and install any software you want using apt-get/aptitude).

(mirrors appreciated)
Features:
*Touchscreen, UI works perfectly fine
*Wifi works perfectly fine too
*Sound kinda works (playback is too fast for me, please test)
*It's full Debian GNU/Linux - 15901141666 packages to apt-get!
Various technical info:
*Kernel based on linux_on_wince_htc from gitorious with some modifications:
-applied USB host patch by liiochen
-applied patch from tytung kernel that enables ALSA driver to be compiled as module (without that it wouldn't work at all)
-custom defconfig
*Rootfs size is 1GB. Filesystem is ext4 (to avoid data corruption).
*Window manager is E17, it's optimized for phones, very beautiful, and very impressive overall. Network manager is Wicd.
*Also installed: Xterm, SSH server.
*Default username is "htcleo". Default password for this account is "htcleo". Default root password is..."htcleo".
*As it is Debian Unstable, anything can break at any time and not much can be done about it. I also recommend using aptitude over apt-get (it is better at solving dependency problems).
Important To-Do:
*Phone functionality & suspend/resume (all of this should be supported! sadly, fso-deviced in Debian repositories is currently broken)
*Landscape mode (easy)
*Hardware buttons (easy)
*Bluetooth (at least partial support should be easy)
*??? to be continued
Wish-list (the less important stuff):
*Switch to armhf for performance gains (should be easy)
*At least partial hardware acceleration (should be possible thanks to xf86-video-msm driver)
*Bully someone into cooking newer kernel (2.6.32 is old)
*If the above doesn't work, backport brcmfmac wifi driver to current kernel
*Compass, GPS, camera, multitouch (aka the stuff not many really care about)
*??? to be continued
If you want to help me in the effort to make this port work perfectly, take a look at this:
http://www.multiupload.nl/BXNBMMECH0
It's a package with everything you need to reconstruct my rootfs on your own. There are some files and there is a dirty bash script ("createrootfs") that does everything that has to be done. Instructions are inside of it.
There is a lot of valuable information on htc-linux wiki (http://htc-linux.org). I'm available in this topic, on pm, and on #htc-linux freenode channel.
Big thanks to #htc-linux, Cotulla, liiochen, tytung, dcordes, many others I forgot about and will add later.
[EDIT 16.09.12]
Some people requested kernel sources, here they are:
http://www.multiupload.nl/IWL07GL78D
MD5: c698454af38ad7ed3dbec120eae84daa
Clever ones will notice ".git" subdirectory. There's full history and anyone's more than welcome to upload it onto github/gitorious/similar.
Please refer to this htc-linux wiki page for compiling: http://htc-linux.org/wiki/index.php?title=QuickDeveloperStartGuide#Kernel . Use htcleo-gnu_defconfig (it's in arch/arm/configs/ directory).
I would appreciate someone testing USB host functionality. It should work (proper patches were applied), but I don't have cables to check it out myself.

USB host works, keyboard and mouse. Connected to wifi ok. But when I tried to take a screenshot, it just hung and had to press soft reset button. Will test more.
Excellent work bardzusny, BTW there are Ladies on this forum too
@ivicabrus, be sure to unzip the .tar.gz, the .tar and also the rootfs.zip

Check my post earlier you have to unzip the rootfs.zip too
There is no link on the download page.
Must register on this site to be able to see the download link?
Sorry, is the first time I come across this download site.
Thanks.
Your rootfs.ext4 seems destoryed.

I did some test on this build and performance is much better than ubu. Ui is very smooth and keybord is good as for smartphone. Tried to test sound but clicking mplayer does not give result. Wifi works but sometimes needs system restart to connect. Dont try screenshot option (just like above). Good work!
