Hello everyone I just got this the other day and I rooted/unlocked it day one. I have tried many roms cm7, rocko, cm9, aokp (current rom) and loved it all but I have some questions;
1. On aokp i seem to randomly have to click things 3-6 times to get it to register or go away (ie, confirmations, superuser requests, and the game C.H.A.O.S.) This was not an issue on non ics roms.
2. My favorite game C.H.A.O.S. is a triple touch game, in my 2 days of experience it seems on stock and stock based roms only 2 touch works and on aosp roms its up to 5. However in both cm7 and ics I am having consistent issues with my touches being glitchy and sticky during gameplay. Is this a hardware or driver issue? Is there any stock based rom that offers faithful triple touch?
3. No matter what ics rom im on Chrome force closes all the time is this normal? Opera wont even open
4. Are there settings or options on what orientation the kickstand defaults to on ics? It doesnt auto rotate and i would like to be able to charge it while using the kickstand.
Thank you guys in advance

Welcome!
1) Not normal. wipe cache, dalvik, and fix perms. Users also report weird problems if installing via Kitchen Sink, it's not done yet. If thats the case for you, try installing the old fashioned way through cmw.
2) I dont have this issue in cm7. But it is to be expected in the ICS roms at the moment.
3) Chrome doesnt work as it uses video acceleration and we dont have the correct video drivers yet. Opera 12 hasn't worked in any iteration of our ICS roms.
4) Not sure about this one, i never use my kickstand.
Chrome hasn't worked well on ICS roms for the Photon yet. Opening a tab always force closes the browser. For the touch issues, did you flash the water droplet fix? The phone has a software "feature" that ignores long presses over a certain length of time, making gaming a frustrating endeavor.

That sounds interesting, could you provide a link?

All that fix does is prevent the phone from automatically releasing your touch after a certain time when you tap and hold. I think your problem extends a bit further than that. Worth a shot though.

You may have deeper issues with your touch screen but this is worth a shot. I'd make a backup just in case but it worked for me in the past.

That works! Thanks for the help. Still a bit torn between this hybrid 2.3.5 rom and AOKP but at least now im able to play my game lol.
Edit: joystick still sticks occasionally in ics so im sticking to the hybrid rom with the waterdrop fix for now. Ics feels very stable but doesnt fit my daily driver just yet.

While im at it does anyone know if there is a mod to change the screen timeout when using the kickstand? I would like to make it time out after a minute with it in and ten when its out

Hi
New to Photon.
I ordered n got an unlocked version of Sprint Photon 4G n I live in India.
There are many sprint specific apps on ma Mopho which I don't want. So my question is
1. Can I flash a STOCK Rom without any of those apps if yes where do I find the Rom?
2. Will RSD lite do the job?
3. Will there be any other issues if anyone has tried it?
Any other advice is appreciated.
Thank you

Follow all the directions and proceed to flash any rom of your choosing. If you are looking for a stock based rom with sprint crap removed I suggest peetr's stock 2.3.5 cm7 hybrid multilingual rom in the dev section.
Happy flashing

A few more clarifications:
1.I tried setting up 2G internet connection today. I use Vodafone in India on that phone. EVERYTHING works except the Data! Vodafone India reps have promised a call back cuz it didn't get resolved.
What else could I try now?
2.The USSD code to check available balance etc doesn't work. It simply keeps saying requesting details or something like that!
Is it in some way locked or anythin?
(It's an Unlocked Sprint phone I repeat.)

Is the a forum for the Motorola Cliq 2? I didn't see the it listed on the phone types area? Is there another name it's known by?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
I just got this phone myself, and I'm hoping to see a section for it.
Are you having any issues with wifi calling. For some reason it will not stay connected for me. It will connect for a little bit then just randomly disconnects. My G2's wifi calling works perfectly so I'm wondering if it just doesn't work well on the Cliq 2 or if one of the built in connection manager apps is interfering with it. Anyone who had this issue please post and fixes you found. Thanks
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
I haven't used the Wifi calling just yet, but I had a similar problem with Navigator. Was in NYC, and was using it to get me around, and it just stopped working. It was losing the data connection, and it would just stop cold turkey. Sounds similar to your problem with Wifi calling. Probably data connection related.
This MotoBlur is bull****. My sister owns a Motorola Flipside, and the software on that blows. Had to do a number of things to get that phone working right. I'm hoping for some CM7 roms on both of these phones. So far, nobody cooked any yet. Makes me miss using my G1 phone, since it had a pretty nice setup with the abundance of custom roms available. Just a SIM card swap away.
Of course, the first thing needed is a section for the Cliq 2.
The c2 is still a redheaded stepchild at this point. There is some work starting now over at m3 but it would be really nice to see something going over here.
There's already a deblurred rom with some goodies included. Someone is working on porting CM6 and maybe eventually CM7.
That is correct over at m3 there are 2 roms and a custom recovery out at this point. Looks like some good things are starting to happen!

Just use OneClickRoot to root this phone. The latest version works fine. The Gingerbread release has a custom root that you'll need to apply. It's on ModmyMobile.com .

Nope.
If you could, there won't be a need to differentiate between 3g n wifi version rom, wouldn't they?
i don't know. I thought, the only difference is 3G modul and SIM tray. I really don't need it, so there won't be a problem for me if 3G wouldn't work.
I thought for sure you could use most of the custom ROMs here. IDK for certain though. I do think you will lose 3G.
I'd wait for some more replies or ask in a ROM thread to get a quick answer. make sure to read the op before asking so nobody gets upset if it already is stated. Some days we tend to be more rude with answers that have been posted before and get asked again. and it's a Monday here.
If you can read this it was sent using my GT-P7510.
Yes. Actually I hace a ICS Rom of my GT-P7500 that detect 3G. I tried a Wifi Rom that I think is the GT-P7500 model and worked for me. This didn't detect my 3G network.

Yes you can, but you will lose your 3G connection. I've had wi-fi only ROMs on my 7500 before and they worked just fine.
ok, thank you for good news. At least i'm not afraid to flash different ROMs
You can flash ICS if you like, 3G was taken down on it for some fixes but I don't see the real big deal with 3G and Wifi models. Would be advisable to take a nandroid backup, just incase you get too excited
I'll give it a try for sure, but i'm tab owner for about week so first i want to live for a while with stock ROM so i can compare it then with ICS.

I'm using it and it works really well for me.
Is it really smooth? No lags? What about freezing? Is it faster than 3.1?

In my experience it's much smoother (especially noticeable if you use a live wallpaper and some widgets). Haven't got a freeze yet, everything worked just fine.
Only noticed a few problems:
Camera not working (I don't really use the tab to take pictures, but it's nice to have it for chatting)
When you click on the "recent apps" button, the screen flickers sometimes
Games don't run as good as they did on The Overcome Experience v2.2.0 - stuff like Angry Birds etc. works no problems, but I did notice more stuttering in Asphalt 6
I think that's everything that didn't work for me, otherwise it's been really nice . Other users might report some other problems though. Best bet - take a nandroid backup to make sure you don't break something, then flash it and see how it goes .
ok thanx for sharing xp. First i'll try Overcome and then ICS
One more thing: Do you have any xp with adaptors like Samsung port -> USB port or Samsung port -> SD card reader?
Two days ago I rooted and installed cm7.1. Everything was fine at home on WiFi then I go to work and my phone is rendered useless. I work in and area where before being rooted and having a custom Rom installed I would have good 3g service all day every day. Now the phone is bouncing back and fourth between 3g and 1x. With one to two bars on either and usually stuck on 1x. So I switch to mean Rom ics. Rom works exceptionally well but now I'm at work and once again terrible not even usuable signal strength in a place where I've worked for years and never had an issue before. It took me 3 hours to download tapatalk from the play store today just to write this. Please tell me what I'm doing wrong or if there's a fix! If not I'll be reverting to stock.
Sprint evo 3d
Hboot 1.5 s-on
4ext recovery
Mean Rom ics
I tried updating profile and prl with no luck. Which actually I don't even know what that does so it could be irrelevant.
Please help thanks!

Bumer man. If you were s-off I'd say just flash a different radio. However you being s-on makes that not a option. Have you tried calling sprint and have them reset your signal ?
#Root-Hack_Mod*Always\=LTE
Ya, definitely do s-off, prefer Closeone with Unknownforce, worth the time, not sure of other method, never tried. Different Rom, some my data is 200-400, others better signal and 1100-1600 3g. CM7 kind of old, second the recommended previously though my preference is Sense 4, no 4g in Phoenix metro, dam you Sprint...lol.
Sent from Taptalk on the Sense 4.0 Rom of the day!......
I've had my thunderbolt for over a year now and its been rooted for most of that time. Up until recently everything been working fine. I was running CM7, but for the past few weeks I haven't been able to get data when connected to 4G. The 4G icon shows up but is grayed out, but when I toggle airplane mode it turns blue but still does not work. My first though was that my radios were wrong so I flashed a bunch of different radios but none of those worked. Next I tried flashing a bunch of different roms (all AOSP because I hate sense), no help. I finally figured it was my SIM card so I got a replacement from verizon.
So none of this worked and on a whim I decided to flash a sense based rom, and 4G worked!
Is this a common problem with thunderbolts or does anybody have a fix for this? I really want to switch back to CM7 (running MIUI with no MMS right now).
EDIT: I forgot to mention, for some reason 4G data works on the MIUI rom I'm currently running. So for now I'm opting for speed over MMS.
For anyone interested my radios are currently:
LTE: 0.01.79.0331w_1
radio: 1.49.00.0406w_1

Hello,
I have had my tbolt rooted for over a year as well, I am a flashaholic and never had a data problem, maybe u need to switch ur kernel, I'm on ziggys kernel and I've been on since it released and never had a problem, I never really changed my radio, hope this helps.

There are 4G issues with AOSP, you get slower data speeds and for some reason my coverage recording maps don't record 4G properly when using AOSP. Sense works fine.

I did switch to imosyens lean kernel on a few roms after things started acting up. I don't think my kernel is the issue though, seeing as I was running CM7 for so long with no problems.

Hi guys,
I have a T-Mobile HTC One and last night I unlocked, rooted, and flashed ARHD 30.0. I used to have the capability of Wifi calling, which T-Mobile offers for free. For those of you unfamiliar who may be familiar with a substitute, this feature allows users to call and text over Wifi, which is especially useful when service is unavailable.
Ever since I flashed the ROM, this feature doesn't show up in my settings. Does anyone know of a substitute that has the same or similar features? Also, does anyone know of the newest Revolution ROM that includes this capability? I'd like the newest possible ROM.
Thanks
I believe when T mobile release 4.3 for the One the devs will be able to include wifi calling in their ROMs. I don't know of any alternatives. 4.3 is supposed to go out on Monday so it shouldn't too much longer...
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
OK great. So you think it should be available in the next couple of weeks? Does Mike make these ROMs specifically for different carriers or is it a one ROM fits all kind of thing?
Also, if I flash a newer ROM, do I lose all my data on my phone? And if so, is there a way to backup and restore everything including my apps and settings?
I'm pretty new to this. Thanks for your help.
If you're on 4.1.2 right on you're going to get some annoying problems when first updating.
You'll most likely just want to do a complete wipe of your entire phone. (backup what you need)
There is a adb command you can run, check the trickdroid website there's a tutorial.
If we get an update Monday, Wi-Fi calling should be added relatively quickly to the existing ROMs. Like a day or two.

Ok great. Will the new Revolution HD ROM have a different version number? I just want to make sure I don't miss it. And when it is released, where will be the first place it will be announced? I'm very anxious to get my W-Fi calling back, since I have poor reception at school and work, but Wi-Fi is more readily available.

FYI, Insertcoin 5.0-5 incorporated the latest T-Mo update, and now has working Wi-fi calling on T-Mobile. ARHD will likely upgrade soon too, but these roms are somewhat similar and Insertcoin runs great. Here's a link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2279766
Hmm. I may have to try InsertCoin if Mike doesn't update his ROM. He just released a new version of ARHD (31.0) and it doesn't say anywhere that he's added WiFi calling. So I'm not sure if he is planning on doing it in the next couple of weeks or if he's just going to forget about it.

I bit the bullet and tried insert coin, not too impressed compared to trickdroid although it's probably just due to my ignorance.
No back4menu baked in
Seems a bit sluggish compared to trickdroid, which was already noticibly slower than when I first flashed it months ago
Didn't remove all the bloat I asked it to
Didn't allow my play store apps to auto d/l (weird one - tried two flashes and no dice, tried a different 4.3 rom and all my apps came right back)
That said, it is 4.3 with wifi calling but I'm still rolling back to 4.1.2 for now and sending trickdroids guy 10$ on paypal with a note about wifi calling

Hmmm I came from Trickdroid, then ARHD and have stayed on Insertcoin; zero lag here and no problems auto downloading apps at all. Also Xposed mods work too. But, everyone has their rom preferences, so good luck!
Thanks for the suggestions everyone. behold_this's ROM looks promising, but I messaged mike and he said wifi calling "will come" so I think I'm going to hold off for a few more weeks and hopefully he'll have made the ROM by then.
:laugh: Good to know im actually looking for a rom with wifi calling since i dont have great coverage where i live. ill check the mentioned roms out, although was really interested on pacman rom
I will be keeping an eye out for this as well. I sent a PM to the developer for AR HD a day or so ago asking, but no response yet.
I'm no developer, but this seems like it would be pretty simple and quick to implement the WiFi calling feature from the stock T-Mobile ROM which came out almost three weeks ago. I'm really surprised it isn't out yet, especially as he seems to know that people are waiting for it. Then again, most of us aren't paying him for his work. I just don't know how much longer to wait... I seem to have terrible service and WiFi all the time.

It's not as easy as you might think. To implement Wi-Fi calling into a rom the base HAS to be the tmobile base. It's not as easy as ripping an apk out.

Just because the 4.3 update has pushed out doesnt mean a dev is using it as the base. Some are, some arent.
