Hello,
I have a Droid X2 with CM10 JB. On the factory stock 2.3.4 Gingerbread build, I have a small list of fancy bluetooth features that my Dodge Charger takes advantage of. The radio was able to pull up texts and call out when I received a text, as well as respond to texts using canned messages on the radios screen.
Since upgrading to CM7 and now CM10 those features have not been accessible. Is there any way to get these features back?

Hi guys, I am not really all that new to the forums, lurking alot. and doing research contemplating whether or not i should do this upgrade which all of you seem to have absolutely no problem doing.
I am a Verizon customer with a 6800 that i use for mainly business purposes and entertainment purposes. I have been using stock since the day i got and only used cosmetic shells for it (SPB) Recently my phone has been forced into retirement (lost) which almost seemed like a godsend to me as insurance is sending me a new 6800. Given the timing and the circumstance, i am going to be doing one of these upgrades to my phone. However i am completely lost as to what happens after and which choice would be best.
I decided to use either Nexvision's upgrade or DCD's upgrade. i dont know which, as far as i understand dcd's is closer to stock; am i correct in thinking this? while dcd's is more fully featured entertainment package with loads of software?
I would also love to add functionality to this phone if possible, am I correct in thinking that i am able to enable gps on the phone by updating the radio? if so, wouldn't the radio cuase signal issues? long connect times and such?
Also, since I am verizon customer, i would need to call verizon's tech support for some information to activate my phone?
I want to thank you for all your support in advance, and i will be posting back here updating on my experience.
did all the work, flash went just fine without a hitch, however i cant send or recieve sms. only app added to dcd kitchen is arcosft mms 4 found on this forum.
First off DCD's are what we call Clean ROM's. He pretty much strips all the bs out of them and lets you decide what you want to add via the Kitchen. What you really need to do is figure out exactly what programs you want included. Then search around for the OEM files for those programs. Once you get all the OEMs you want you will stuff them in DCD's Kitchen OEM folder and then follow his directions. Now beware PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO THE DETAILS IN THE INSTRUCTION. If you don't, you'll end up with a headache. It won't kill your phone but you will have to keep flashing the thing until you follow the directions exactly how they are set. I will tell you right now, if you are a Verizon customer have your stylus out when your phone boots and hit the reset button when the Customization screen pops up. If you don't, you're gonna end up flashing it again.
I really like DCD's rom...clean, stable and everything works. I looked at VetVito's black rom and its very nice looking but I have mine set up just fine. Thats the nice thing about DCD's rom you can add anything you want later. If you flash a custom rom with lots of apps you may find there are some conflicts with software that you choose to install for your specific needs. You will need to update the radio on your verizon phone to enable the GPS. There are several tutorials on how to do it but basically you're gonna flash the stock Sprint rom (to get the updated radio only) and then stop at the customizations screen (the screen says 'tap' to begin customizing)....don't tap that screen or you're gonna have headaches like lllboredlll said. I'm on Alltel so I can't speak to some of the issues that Verizon users have but there are also some excellent tutorials on flashing the Sprint rom specifically to Verizon phones and how to get up and running without problems. My connections (phone, data, bluetooth, wi-fi, and GPS) have been flawless. After you're done flashing you can install SPB Mobile Shell or some other GUI and have fun!
Hey guys, Just reporting back on progress
I have successfully completely patching DCD rom onto my 6800. verizon has authenticated it and everything is working just fine.
I want to thank you again for your support and your help with choices and advice as well as explaining the differences between the choices.
However i did notice one thing. When using google maps option to track my location i found that it is horribly inacurrate, showing my location some 100 miles or so from my actual position. is this a common problem or just a fluke.
Update: Seems the gps is all wonkey, oh well.
after some more use, seems that text messaging isnt working. I cant recieve messagings and when sending i get error message NoAck. i can make calls no problems, didnt try the MMS.
I used DCD kitchens and added the arcosft mms 4 to it, edited the rgu like it said. I ddnt try sending mms messages yet, but I cant send or recieve sms messages,
a *228 option 1 didnt work. It seems to have killed my phone and i unable to recieve or make calls now.
Call verizon and make sure they didn't put a block on text messaging. If calls work fine, then sms should as well as they both transmit using 1xRTT.
Also, do a *228 option 1 and see if that helps.
got everything working, took me 2 phone calls to verizon to get everything back up and running. they asked for a few numbers from my phone, and a few resets later, everything was good. Thank you guys for all your supports. I am now the proud owner of a DCd 3.0.1 xv 6800
I'm just wondering if anyone knows what we'd need to do or what would need to be ported to get Internet Calling (SIP) on our phones. While the Gingerbread ROMs should support it, I'm not seeing the required settings menus...
A quick Google search reveals that we may need to port the dialer from AOSP? Just looking for thoughts or confirmation from someone in the know.
One thing I can tell you for sure, CM7 will have it.

I just want to point out that for AT&T handsets, this will likely never be capable.
Sadly, we lack the ability (UMA) to do this, it's a synchronious provider/handset/hardware/software effort. We lack handset hardware.
T-Mobile, on the other hand, you may have had a chance, with, not 100% anymore. But here is the information on AT&T: HERE
Anyways, with the Atrix it's impossible, sorry.
However, you can still make full use out of Google Voice, this functionality isn't harmed.
SIP is broken (seems like audio routing issue) on the motorola stack, problem affects even custom ROMs based off motorola kernel.
I've tried every single SIP application under the sun, all have audio issues, it looks like the way Motorola routes audio (to speaker or headphones or whatever) is a bit non-standard as they all exhibit different kinds of audio bugs (as opposed to SIP protocol connectivity issues).
Wait for CM7 or an AOSP based ROM i think.
Skype does work fine for me thou.
Hi all,
I'm using a GSM Razr XT910 with the CyanogenMod 9 customised ROM by J.Y. Daddy (RAZR-CM9-12.05.17-UNOFFICIAL-GSM-J.Y.Daddy) and I keep receiving duplicate SMS messages. I've changed to "Original timestamp" in SMS settings to see what's going on, and it seems I'm getting the same message up to 9 times.
It happens with multiple contacts, and I'm not sure how to fix it. I'm in the UK on O2 - does anyone have any ideas for how to fix, or has anyone else experienced a similar issue?
I had this issue too.
I live in Australia and have been using J.Y.Daddy's CM9 builds pretty much since he started porting them over to GSM. I tried to narrow the issue down to a few factors and the main causes I suspected were:
1) Different kernel version to your phone's "natural" one. Have you used RSDLite to flash any different fastboot files? Or are you on rooted stock initially?
2) Handcent. I began using this app after making the switch from GOSMS a while back and shortly before the duplicate message problem began. They have actually confirmed that there is some compatibility issues with some Motorola handsets, and this is reflected by Handcent's changelog. Are you by any chance using Handcent?
3) Finally, the last cause I come up with was a network issue which is refusing to send an 'acknowledgement' packet to the provider, essentially meaning the message is never marked as received and therefore, it keeps sending the message in an attempt to correct this.
In my experience, the problem was #3. I was on Optus for a long time (The 'second place' Australian telco), and recently made the switch to Telstra (#1 telco) and the issue has been resolved. If you are on stock kernel and do not use Handcent, then unfortunately I think it may be a network issue.
Don't take my word on this though, I'm not an expert. Just speaking from experience.
Thanks Mr. Ektid, I think in my case it's probably #1. I installed a different 2.3.6 rom over RSD in order to get the Bluetooth working without causing a bootloop, so I guess that must have messed things up. I don't use or have installed any SMS apps other than stock, and I don't think it's a network issue as texts were working fine before installing ICS.
I've rolled back to Arctic for now, seems to have sorted things again. I suppose the way to fix the issue in CM9 would be to RSD a stock UK 2.3.6 rom and then flash CM9 over that - but I'm not sure if that would mean I would still get Bluetooth bootloops, as it seems like a fairly specific 2.3.6 rom is needed for that to work.
Ah well. Back to Gingerbread for a while.
I (luckily) don't have to drive a lot, so it took me a while to notice that this feature was missing.
With the official AT&T OS, the Atrix was able to support SMS over Bluetooth (so the car can read me the texts). However, with CM7 [I'm running the latest 06/03 nightly] this feature no longer works.
Any ideas on why this doesn't work with CM7 and how to get this worked back in?
Since the latest CM7 build still is missing this functionality, figure I'd get this thread back to the top. It's rather annoying that it's missing this (what should be) basic feature.
Dear Genius Developer Community,
First let me say thanks for the MOUNTAINS of information I have mooched from your collective brains over the last 5 or so years. From the time Android first launched you guys have made my whole experience more enjoyable.
I am using a Motorola Droid RAZR MAXX (XT912) on Verizon running Cyanogenmod 10.1.2 and the built in messaging application with Safestrap 3.11. Great phone made even better by a great ROM. The only issue I have had so far is a strange intermittent MMS problem: sometimes I just don't receive the message. Texting is fine and all other data access is perfect. Sometimes they come through, and sometimes they don't. When they don't, if I reboot the phone I can receive them again (at least for a time) but the ones that were sent during the down time never come through. Below are the things that I have tried and the effects they have had (if any). Any light you guys can shed here is greatly appreciated.
Wi-Fi
I read somewhere that MMS wouldn't send without a mobile data connection so I have tried completely disabling Wi-Fi - no effect.
Access Points
Everything I have found points to the Access Points being wrong and so I have messed with them for days going so far as to delete telephony.db and COMPLETELY removing all of the default access points replacing them with the EXACT APNs from the stock ROM - no effect.
Rebooting
Whenever I reboot my phone I can receive again. As previously stated, nothing sent before ever comes in but I can now receive new...for a time. Eventually I will get a text from someone "did you get that pic?" - temporary fix.
As an additional note, on the stock ROM I have never had an MMS issue of any kind so I know it's not a service or phone issue.
I to have been having issues with my MMS. But I run the newest nightly of avatar ROM. It is based off of Cyanogenmod from what I understand. Any who I'm having issues with my MMS not allowing me to send pics. This is only on this ROM. I had carbon and it seemed like it worked fine. Any way does anyone have a fix for this or is it a known issue with the Cyanogenmod at this point. And sorry, hope you don't feel I jacked your thread. We just both have a similar issue.
If you are running adblock plus turn it off. This fixed my issue
My MMS usually doesn't work on most custom ROMs, I switched to the handcent app and MMS always works.
