EVO & Fennec/Firefox Mobile - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

hey everyone, I'm having a problem with Firefox Mobile on my EVO and I wanted to see if anyone else has experienced it. Firefox's wiki says that it's ok for the EVO, but after installing, I can't get the damn thing to load at all.
Anyone tried?

It crashes immediately on my HTC Hero (Froyo elelinux 2.0).

Works Fine
Works just fine on my Evo, noticed it uses a lot of memory though.

With me, the screen goes black when you launch it, then...nothing. It doesn't go back to the home page, no errors, etc.
Weird.

[CDMA]Cyanogenmod 6.1 - BravoC [test/experimental]

I take no credit for this, all I did was build it from the BravoC build tree and add in the latest kernel that Kali posted in the blitzrom thread.
NEW BUILD UP!! flashable over previous release.
What works:
- wifi (and wifi hotspot)
- back-light turns off
- optical joystick
- video camera mode is selectable (but doesn't record)
- USAA (maybe all protected?) app is in market and usable for deposit.
- Voice input using the IME_Mod keyboard
what's broken:
- video camera does not record
- MMS sending (this has been true of every AOSP rom I have used on both Hero and Desire)
Download it here: http://www.4shared.com/file/M6VjXyKg/update-cm-610-RC0-10082010-Des.html
flash this kernel to fix wifi: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1694782/kern35-cdma-final.zip

Thanks for all that you have Done. -

Nice to see CM 6.1 finally surfacing, though my Desire is HSPA so I guess I'll wait (using nightly CM6 atm). Is this version using the HTC released kernel?

this WILL NOT WORK ON HSPA DESIRES! this is ONLY for CDMA desires. (we need a cdma forum!) the kernel I'm using is the cyanogen-mod kernel with some patches by Kali that he based off the HTC source code.
The nightlies you are using are probably further along than this anyway, this was a quick and dirty test build I whipped up because I could find nothing in the way of cyanogen-mod for the CDMA desire, closest was Blitzrom but that was just plain AOSP and lacked the cool cyanogen features.
LOL that's why I said "I'll wait"
I could not get this to load. Am I missing something
what did you do exactly? any errors?
standard rom loading procedure that works for me is:
1. nandroid backup
2. wipe data/cache/dalvik
3. install rom.zip
4. install google apps.zip
5. reboot

updated my first post with a patch for the roaming indicator. I put in my carrier ACS, if your on another carrier sorry but now you get to feel my pain as all the Hero roms I used said sprint
if you wish to customize for your carrier follow this:
http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-hacks/57078-how-edit-eri-xml.html
Hell ya its about time an aosp banner said ACS!!!!
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
I'm a little confused as to why the roaming fix didn't work for me. I flashed the "roaming-fixed.zip" archive, but I still see the roaming indicator. I'm on the same network, ACS, if that helps at all. I didn't get a boot loop, but my DesireC still thinks it's roaming. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!
New build is up!
http://www.4shared.com/file/M6VjXyKg/update-cm-610-RC0-10082010-Des.html
integrates latest kernel from Kali and my roaming patch. WIFI WORKS!
thanks for the good work i will give this a shot maybe tomorrow. just curious what cdma network are you running on in AK? i am on cellular south in alabama and can't wait to try this out.
I'm with Alaska Communications http://alaskacommunications.com/
They are an ACG member just like cellular south. same version of the hardware and same radio. the build.prop is setup like USCC but that doesn't really matter much. I ran CM6 on my ACS hero with a sprint build.prop just fine.

Thanks for doing this. I've been wanting to test drive CM6 for a while now. Having some issues though. I'm still not getting wifi to work. So far the only thing that seems different from the first build is that the roaming indicator is off. When I tried to reboot using the reboot option from the power menu it got stuck in a boot loop. It started fine after I pulled the battery. After rebooting none of my widgets would load. I had to redo all of them. Also, when I was talking on the phone yesterday it got really hot. This doesn't make sense to me since I have it set to clock at 245 with the screen off. And is portable hotspot supposed to be working? It seems to react the same way as it does with wifi.
Gave this a whirl, and I am encountering a problem with my wifi not working, it's giving me an error. Everything else seems good though.
not sure what happened with the wifi, but if you flash this kernel it works (hotspot too) http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1694782/kern35-cdma-final.zip
i remember inserting that kernel into the build, but sure enough, didn't work until i flashed it separately.
i've noticed that my widgets seem to stretch oddly. anyone else having that issue?
psychache that's odd about the reboot boot loop. mine has rebooted fine both normally and recovery over a dozen times. I tried on a second desire i have access too and it worked fine as well.
Just so you guys know.. Kali- has built a fully working CM 6.1 for the CDMA Desire.
Get in #teamdesire
fully working as in video camera too?
i just popped into the channel and all i see are nightlies for the gsm desire. only cdma link is to unrevoked forever.

Did you have any issues after rebooting? I lost all my widgets when I did, meaning I can't use any of widgets other than the preinstalled stuff.
did you move any of the apps associated with those widgets to sd card? or perhaps set install location to sd card? you cannot store widgets on sd.

[Q] HTC HD2 Reboot Problem

So I have a modded HTC HD2, which will reboot by itself while Im running an app or on the internet browsing. Sometimes just randomly, I have had this current configuration on it since I got the phone. But this problem is happening more often now. Sometimes when it reboots I have to go through hell to get android to bootup again. Please direct me in the right direction to fix this, or if there is a better configuration of mods I could change to.

You need to google for froyostone sense V.3.2 that will work better

Rogers Gingerbread 2.3.3 Bug Report Thread

My fellow Canadians...
I have noticed a number of issues with the latest official firmware for the Rogers captivate. I think it would be a good idea to put them all in one place and try to start figuring out what common issues exist and perhaps we can address them all at once. Please state the issue, when it seems to happen, and what if any modifications you have made to your software setup. Maybe someone will notice a pattern or trend and we can get them resolved.
Thanks!

One major issue I have noticed is when updating apps through the 3.1.5 market. It seems to only happen when I am updating an app, not when I am installing a new app:
Sorry!
The application TwLauncher(process com.sec.android.app.twlauncher) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
At which point I have to force close it.
Also, I have experienced random shut downs, I will click the power/screen lock button to unlock the phone, and it seems the phone has shut itself off. If you hold down the power button it boots normally.
Anyone else experiencing these issues?

Did you try a factory reset after you updated?
Voice for Swype
The voice command for Swype doesn't work.......
1. Speed dial no longer works. Says 'USSD code running' then closes and gives message 'unknown application'
2. GPS has stopped working completely.
As far as the launcher crashes, I don't use touchwiz. I do use Launcher Pro. It does seem to crash every so often. I've replaced all my widgets because I've read somewhere that this might help.
No random shutdowns here.
I talked to a samsung technical support rep and his captivate's swype voice input didn't work either.

GPS works perfectly on mine captivate 2.3.3 and I get better reception and locking time. But GPS will stop working if you flashed a custom Kernel on it! I know that because I tried it and GPS wasn't working when I had a custom Kernel, had to flash back the stock kernel.
Edit: I just tried Speed dial and it's working perfectly, I think there is something wrong on your phone.

I also don't have any issues with the GPS or Speed Dial. My only mod was rooting with the FUGU kernel.

I hadn't thought of that; I wonder if I'll lose my root? Come to think of it, I wonder if that's causing the launcher crashes...

Got the phone from Rogers with 2.1 then upgraded to 2.2 then to 2.3.3 (all done through Kies. GPS was ok but spotty on 2.1 and much better with Froyo but hoped Gingerbread would bring more improvement.
I've tested it since Rogers released 2.3.3 and on a few occasions I've even gone to the roof of my building on a clear day and waited for 45mins!! and nothing! Not lock then lose it but NOTHING! Speed dial I can live without but I actually use the GPS quite a bit.
Since upgrading I've done a factory reset 4 times and even sent it in for repair, which came back saying "upgraded SW and factory reset" which fixed nothing.
I've just rooted (just root nothing else) and I've tried to do use the gps code but I can't even get into that!!
What can I do at this point?

Yeah, with the 2.3.3 you can't access the gps setting by entering the code, because everything you enter the code *#*#3214789650#*#*, you'll get a message saying "Service mode has crashes blablaba...". The only that I found to bypass that was to go to market and install the app "Anycut" then launch it, select New Shortcut, Activity then choose Angry gps.
I'll look up what's the problem that causing you not to get a good gps signal.

Man I was going nuts trying that gps code. Googled and searched this forum and everything pointed to that code. Was ready to toss my phone off the roof!
Was reading these forums for the past couple weeks learning how to root/flash (just rooted today actually) to get gps working.
I'm guessing I might have to try flashing it again with the stock rom from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=979133 but gotta do some more reading before attempting it.

I use an app called GPS Status from the market. There, in the menu under 'tools', you can 'manage A-GPS state and wipe the location info the GPS has back to scratch. Then download the assistance data from the internet. This worked well for me and I do it from time to time to keep things current.

How long have you had the phone? The random shut downs is not a ROM issue. I am pretty sure it is a hardware problem. It was acknowledged by Samsung. There is even a list of effected builds. I am sure you could find the build numbers with a little search. I had this problem when I first got the phone last December but had Rogers replace it. If it is the same problem, I think you will notice that the sleep of death only occurs when the battery is like above 85% or somthing like that. It has been a while so I can't exactly remember.
I can't seem to get the firmware actually downloaded. I'm going through kies and it recognizes my phone, and recognizes that I need to upgrade, starts downloading the upgrade and at 12% it disconnects. I have two screen shots here that show what I am talking about.
Any ideas?

Tried this the entire day and still nothing. I know it's kinda cloudy out today but still nothing.
i found 2.3.3 very slow, and poorly built. no voice button in swype PEEVED me off.i was originally making my custom canadian rom off Kh2 (rogers 2.3.3) but i dropped that project and released a canadianized/rogersized KJ3 (2.3.5).
one of the best roms in the dev section. and will be updated by the end of the week with the theming all included. the pic in my sig is a link to the rom if you havent seen EFFIN EH!
Unable to update my Captivate
My captivate is still 2.2 and while connecting to Kies it says this version of the device cannot be updated.
Current version shows PDA: JL1/phone: JL1/CSC: JL1 (xxx).
I had rooted via Super one click and I can see Superuser installed. I havent used it for any purpose.
I removed my external SD card and did factory reset. No luck.

Virtuous Inquisition Problems

I have two problems with this and was wondering if anyone knew how to fix it.
The first is with the stock browser. It just wont work. When I launch it, it crashes immediately.
The second one is with the lock screen camera. It says it was fixed in a previous version on the main page, but I'm still having the problem. Basically, when I slide it over to the camera, it works like the normal lock, no camera function at all.

Ok, that seemed to get the browser to work! Thank you.
The camera works as well, but only if I don't use face lock. Pattern lock and slide lock work fine with it, face lock don't.
hmm it could be a known ics bug which would be in ics fixes or you could try reporting it to the developer on the rom thread i personaly dont use the face unlock so i havnt encountered that problem
Sadly, I'm a noob here and I can't post to the ROM thread. I don't use the camera all that much, so it's no biggie. Hopefully someone else mentions it or maybe it's a known bug.
The browser thing was bothering me though. Thanks for the help with that.
I was having the browser problem too, but resetting permissions and clearing the cache in the apps menu seemed to fix it.
All of my problems are with mobile internet (Wi-Fi is fine). I don't seem to get as good a connection as on my stock rom, and YouTube refuses to play over 3g (connection to server lost); does anyone know how I could improve this?
Speaking of problems with VI, I flashed it a couple days ago and I've ran into two problems:
1. I can't connect to the wifi hotspot anymore. My computer can connect to the network, but it wouldn't be assigned an IP address so I can't browse the net.
2. Juicedefender crashes the phone whenever it boots.
Does anyone know how to fix this? I'd be eternally grateful!
one suggestion is to uninstall jd

[Need help]Google Now Voice Recognition NOT WORKING.

So I was trying to get some help in the Sensation forums, but after doing quite a bit of research, it seems this error is not limited to just the HTC Sensation.
I updated to the newest CM10/Jellybean ROM, everything seems to be working FLAWLESSLY, except one thing: Google Now
The app opens up fine, but when I click the microphone to do a voice search, it says "Speak now" and acts like it's listening, but it never shows any soundwaves on the screen, and eventually changes to say "Tap mic to start speaking". I have flashed multiple gapps, multiple builds of the ROM, changed a file(called audio.msm6680.so or something), still no luck. I can live without the camera for now, but I NEED Gnow. It's the main reason I updated to JB in the first place.
Any help I could get would be greatly appreciated.
thanks
I'm running into a similar problem too. the difference is that when I click on the mic it shows sound waves and such and even shows what I said, but the problem is that mine doesn't do anything, just kind of stays in the same page and nothing happens. Google now works fine, when i type in the searches it works flawlessly, only the mic part of the app seems to have some issues.
I'm currently running stock ICS 4.0.3 on my rooted GT-N7000.
Any suggestions of what to do?
I don't know if this helps but i have HTC Evo 3D running STOCK ICS 3.6 and i installed MikeyXda's M6 zip of Google Now and it works flawlessly.
Try getting back on ICS and try installing.
Good Luck.
