I normally create direct call icons and place them into a calls folder. This isn't working, stating "this activity can not be launched"
I am using the Apex Launcher but this works fine on ICS on my SGS1.
This is a wicked 2-click way to call people so would like to get it working. Hopefully, someone has an idea about this...
Also, does anyone know how I can associate the photo viewer with Quickpic (rather than galley)?
Other people have reported that it doesn't seem to work with 3rd party launchers for now. Could well be that something has changed with permission access. Probably need to wait for an update.

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.

Cannot delete files using root explorer
rm: no such tool
so far i love this rom. here are the few things i have noticed so far, some are probably known already
-unable to setup an exchange 2010 account. I fixed it by loading a new e-mail.apk i found in CM forums.
-Unable to watch videos. sling, vevo, movie trailers.
-Some funky thing happened when i powered the phone off. had to pull battery.
minor things i know, but i wanted to point them out.
I get no service from verizon at all. Roaming symbol then no service. Dunno why. Will try flashing again later when I have easy access to odin

EDIT: Kaos has informed us that the drivers do load its the wifi scanner files that arent working yet.

Thanks this works perfectly. You can even do it in root explorer by navigating to /system/bin/rm and choosing rename from the long press menu and renaming it rm.old. Don't forget to mount rw at the top.

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.
Anyone else still getting the skipping in audio with this? Damn annoying..
SCH-I500 Kaosinate FROYO/Cyanogemod 6
Audio only skips when you change the volume or something of that sort for me, not a real big deal.
Does it a ton during playback for me

My notification sounds do this if the screen is off. Play briefly then stop, soon as I wake the phone it continues to play
i haven't had a chance to try it on my NC yet, but i think we might now be official.

I'm installing the update now i will tell you if it works.

Honeycomb build 4 not working w swype
I installed todays swype and i can tap out words but not swype. I know i am using the right keyboard because it does trace but the words wont display.... Honeycomb build 4.
Works great for me on CM7 v14
It looks great but I can't actually use the swype function, like the poster before said.
Running CM7 and when I swype the border flashes blue but no word appears. Otherwise, it's nice to see some large screen support from Swype. I love it on my Vibrant
Doesn't work for me (NF 0.6.8.3). I can type but can't Swype.
It worked for a second then quit, cm7 v14 Keyboard is nice for fat fingers. Soo close.
I have phiremod v4.1 and the swype does as the others said; I can see the keyboard and the swpe gestures, but no words appear, I can tap them out as with the regular android keyboard, but swyping does nothing. It does make a noise after a swype gesture though.
Also when I put the NC in landscape view, the skype app takes up the entire screen.
still not able to try on my NC, but when swype does that behavior on my nexus one, if i switch to the android keyboard then back to swype through the input method selector, everything works great.

You may well be my hero. I can't confirm that it worked for sure, as it threw a licensing fit since I used it on HC instead of CM7, so I'll revert back to HC and try this again. The licensing fit never occurred until I tried what you suggested.
Tried that method of switching to Android KB and back, still didnt work for me, same as everyone else.
I'm getting the same results on CM7 v17. I'm also getting a message that says swype is configured for another device and may not work correctly when I first switch over to it.

yeah, shoot, me, too. eMMC Honeycomb 2nd edition.
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
I have read in another thread that Nookie Froyo tends to spout random IMEI numbers when an app asks about the device it is installed again. Swype authenticates the beta by IMEI and you are limited as to how many IMEIs you can install it on. Thus the licensing problem - install Swype and it locks itself to the reported IMEI. Then run it again, and it thinks it's installed on another device.
Licensing errors
I'm also getting licensing errors but the keyboard does appear to load correctly on, CM7 #17,
damn. Was so excited too. Wont swype. Have been dying to put it on my NC, typing on this thing sucks.
Sometimes the betas get hacked (but no posting warez here!) so they are not IMEI locked anymore. Unless we can figure out a way to report a stable IMEI on the NC across all firmwares per device, that may be our best bet .
Will try when the WSVGA will be supported in french..
Yes I can confirm what is being said here about the IMEI... Definitely the root cause here as reported on the swype official forums.
The way I see it, this can be worked around without the need to hack the Swype package. My understanding is all we need to do is spoof the telephony stack a little better, so that the IMEI is consistent. I am at work so I cannot do too much to find out how hard that would be.
android API call for getting IMEI is
android.telephony.TelephonyManager.getDeviceId()
First step would probably be to override this function and just report to logcat to confirm the Swype Licensing process (Would have to check both "Swype installer" and "Swype" applications this way, full end to end install process) calls that function to retrieve the IMEI instead of using another method.
Then if that works, override the function to return a static number. Does anyone know if the IMEI can be used to reverse lookup manufacturers and devices models the same way MAC addresses can? If so, we may need to carefully pick the number returned so that if Swype does a reverse lookup it thinks we are using a valid device - Such as Galaxy tab, which I believe is functioning under the latest beta.
I am definitely not an expert android dev, I barely understand this stuff so far. Just hoping to get the conversation started because I'd really like to swype.
Anyone get the SiriusXM app to work on the tab? I downloaded the 1.1 apk but it just hangs on the update screen and never logs in.
There's another thread on this somewhere, but it looks like only one person has gotten lucky and had this work. It doesn't work on mine, I just go to the online site to listen ... you can't run it in the background tho
First, let me say I did search for this issue and couldn't find an answer. I saw that one user had asked the same question in the original CM7 nightly thread (not the twice weekly), but never received an answer. Sorry if it's been answered elsewhere.
I'm running the latest CM7 nightly from Sam3000, although this isn't a new issue. While on a call, SMS notifications play through the rear speaker, causing the person on the other end of the call to hear it as well, interrupting them. I've dug around all the settings on the phone itself and can't find a fix.
Is there something I'm missing? Is there any sort of flashable mod to change this? I'm using the stock messaging app, as I actually prefer it to GoSMS and the like, but if using a 3rd party app is my only hope then so be it.
Thoughts?
I am having the issue where when i receive multiple mms's In one single text
(i got mms to send and download using an alternate apn found in Baffles thread under android development if you cant get it to work try rebooting after you restore the apn)
the app itself tries to open it as a slide show then instantly closes, this is a problem with the app since i downloaded an alternate messaging app and it worked fine. the reason i care is because i wanted to have the stock app working due to the "reply in notification bar" feature. can you guys try out receiving multiple messages sent at the same time from one phone to yours and see if it works or if any one can link me to a working CM10 apk messaging app
P.S. i am on the CM 12/4 nightly but have tried replacing the app with others from earlier builds and some PA ones, no luck
