[Q] D2G CM7 Nightlies - Droid 2 Global General

Are the CM7 nightlies in ROM Manager for the D2 and not the D2G??

yes, they are not for the d2g, to get the nightlies you have to download them from rev's unofficial nightly site

First CM has to accept the build as an Official and once that is done the Nightlies in Rom Manager should work.

heres the nightlies for the d2g.

NO! The games issue is due to an incompatibility with LibEGL

I'm running 20111105 (they're available through ROM manager in ROM Toolbox, BTW) and it works perfectly, though I've noticed something odd with CDMA and the 'Download Manager.java'. Whenever I try to use GMusic or SiriusXM that precache, I have no problem with the apps on wifi, but on CDMA, I get an FC from GMusic and SXM just runs and runs with no audio loaded.
Anyone know if there's a fix?

[Q] Getting smooth flash playback on CM7

Hi Ive been installing a tonne of ROMs this past few days and the cyanogen ROM is pretty amazing, only problem I have found is the flash video playback within websites is not that good, even the official CM7 Roms have had this problem with choppy flash video.
I have found an update zip in the forums that makes flash video and 720p video playback silky smooth, however it only installs on froyo and when trying to install the update via recorvery on CM7 it comes with an error during process and is ubale to install (doesnt do anything to booting up so didn't affect ROM when unsucessfull)
the link below is where a member posted this 720P playback update zip:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...3&postcount=24
if its possible to adapt the code for installing on CM7 gingerbread, you would have cracked the problem that even the official CM7 ROMS still have,
Your link doesn't work.
Btw. Quarx said he wants to enable hardware accelerated flash on CM7.
hw flash works in nightlys. if you want it to work on older releases replace libstagefright.so or rebuild one from source.
Oh and flash playback is incredibly bad on stock roms. On cm7 nightly 480p is watchable and 720p is only a little choppy while on stock 360p is barely watchable even on leaked 2.3.
And why did you opened a dev tread for that? General is ok but why dev. And working HW flash is stated in the OP of CM7 thread
Havent tried the latest nighlty but if its hardware accelerated must be good. that link was working today as I double checked it but it definitely feels hardware accelrated once zip is applied on a froyo rom not stutter whats so ever, im using BBC news embeded flash videos as a benchmark as they are pretty demanding videos to play with mico choppiness ever 10 seconds without the mentioned update zip
BBC news videos are fluid for me on CM7 nightly. Once it became choppy in full screen, I think some other service was using a lot of CPU at the same time.
heres the correct link from that post with the really good decoder
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11018223&postcount=24
just installed the nightly rom and playback 720p video fine but flash is no where near as good compared to using froyo and this update zip which I tried to install (after testing) on the nightly rom and it gave me continuous loop.
Back to nordic for me.
UPDATE!
Update latest rc0 implements flash hardware decoding, its amazing!

[Q] Adobe Flash 11 distortion

Anyone else having problems with Adobe Flash 11 videos playing all distorted? When I go to youtube or any site with flash videos they appear with green lines and just blurry incomprehensible video while the audio plays fine. This has been happening for awhile, but usually resizing the screen or going from full screen back to "in-browser" would fix the issue but that seemed to stop working. I even tried uninstalling Adobe Flash and re-installing but that didnt help either.
Running Cyanogenmod, not sure if that makes a difference.
Same problem here, but try using different browsers will help.
I got that on cm7 but stock it works fine.

This is a current issue with all CM7 based ROMs. There are a couple of bugs filed on the issue tracker for both the p999 and p990... Vote for them so we can get a fix.

I was able to correct this issue by downgrading from Adobe Flash 11.1 down to 10.3, not a perfect solution of course but better than distorted video.
It seems (from what I can tell) that this issue is related to hardware acceleration in 11.1, because 10.3 uses software acceleration and works just fine.
The version I installed is located in this thread (Flash 10.3 + Hulu_8.apk):

whatsapp problem on CM9

Hello!
I flashed CM9 RC2 recently and now whatsapp doesn't work. I get warning after installing it saying that custom rom might cause whatsapp not to work properly. After starting whatsapp it simply closes down.
Before CM9 RC2 i used HyperSensation Rom (2.9 i think), and it worked normally without any problems.
Is there anything i can do to get this to work besides reflashing ROM?
Thank you.
Delete the data of the app.. Un-install it and install it again that might help
Sent from my pyramid using blazing fast sonic waves
Tried that several times. Problem still persists.
EDIT: Just to report. Eventually i installed latest AOKP rom from their site (Milestone 6), and it works fine now.
ive had this same problem. I am usuing the CM9 RC2 right from the cyanogen mod website for samsung captivate ATT. if i install the AOKP rom you think it will work. and if i do whats the difference between AOKP build 40 and milestone 6.
edit: ok i installed milestone 6 and still did not work. what the hell

AOKP builds marked with number (for example: build 40) are something like beta builds and are more likely to have bugs. Milestone builds are more stable releases.
Regarding problem with whatsapp. Seriously i dont know why is this happening. I tried searching net and found couple guys with same problem but nobody offered solution. As i said in my first post, i used hypersensation which was build on one of earlier CM9 releases and it worked fine. So i would suggest to try some earlier releases of AOKP or CM9 or some rom from XDA based on them.
could you please provide me with a link to the rom you used. i will try that one
Here is hypersensation. However i used 2.9 version based on CM9, current version is 3.1. Download is in post 2. In post 3 you can find AOKP roms, but i haven't tried these.
I am using a samsung Captivate. will this rom work for me
My guess is no. You should probably go to Samsung Captivate forum and check there. I don't know anything about Captivate.

[Q] Constant reboots on latest nightlies

Guys, am I the only one getting constant reboots on the latest nightlies? I load up a nightly (have tried 3/17, 3/19, 3/23 so far) and I clear data cache and dalvik prior and post load. I also load the newest 4.2.2 gapps for jb.
The phone reboots itself on everything from Temple Run to basic browsing to music playing through Bluetooth. There seems to be no rhyme, reason, or specific app causing it.
I am using the built in kernel... Is this kernel instability I am seeing?
Please tell me I'm not the only one experiencing this. I am a big fan of cyanogenmod, have used it on many phones over the years but this has been very unreliable for me.
Thanks, Brian
Did you try to fix permission using cwm or ROM manager? That might help. if not, try aokp 4.2.2 or liquid smooth.

Ok so I fixed permissions on 3/23 cyanogenmod nightly, still constant reboots. Then I flashed aokp (hilbert) newest nightly based on 3.0.68 kernel and I am getting the same problem.
Is there any other way to troubleshoot this? Can someone else speak up who is running the newest night lies without FCs or reboots so I know I'm not crazy.?
Thanks for your IMs as well... I will definitely try newer builds.

I didn't get constant reboots but I did get random reboots from time to time.
I also noticed the latest nightly I ran (3/23) seems very slow.
My fix was to restore my backup of CleanRom and I may just not return to CM 10.1.
Lockups and random reboots have been discussed for the last few pages in both the thread in this section and the dev section, commonly seems to have started 3/18 nightly when they switched over to the 3.4 kernel..newest nightlies were supposed to have some fixes merged but I haven't tried it yet
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2071252&page=124
personally had the issue on both 3/20, 3/21 , rolled back to the last nightly on the old kernel which is 3/17 and haven't had it happen since as for AOKP I don't use that so couldn't tell you what the issue is with that ROM

My thought is that in my case there may be something else going on. So far I have tried Cyanogenmod 3/17,3/20 and 3/23 nightly, a 3/23 nightly for AOKP, and now I just installed CleanROM 6.2 R2, which is Android 4.1.2 based. I think most of these kernels are 3.0.x based. I am definitely still getting occasional reboots and FCs but I will say it seems CleanROM is the most stable.
The common thread on all of these builds seems to be that the most instability occurs when attempting to connect to a bluetooth device. That is when I get the constant reboots. I'm talking like you start to play a song, and it gets through half way and just completely reboots itself.
I'm going to keep trying here, but I might have found the common thread in bluetooth instability.
Does the 3.4 kernel report as 3.4.x on the newer nightlies?
Yes it shows in the settings, I personally haven't had any issues with connecting or using my A2DP rocketfish Bluetooth headset even when I was on the newer nightlies with the 3.4 kernel, it was more of hadn't used the phone for a while went to turn the screen on and it wouldn't come back had to battery pull.
Haven't had a single problem since rolling back lockup or otherwise so I'm watching the main threads to hear when they get the issues with the kernel figured out before flashing anything newer

[Q] Kernel Question

Hi everyone!
I recently rooted and installed the twrp recovery on my TF101 on stock ics rom.
Now I want to install a custom kernel but I don't know which is the best.
Can anyone help me to find the best solution?
Thanks in advance.
Depends which ROM you're using, KatKernel is a very popular and fast kernel, and TeamEOS4 is a fast ROM too (4.2.2)
Is the EOS rom fully working? What about bugs?
In my signature you can see which rom I am using. It is the latest official in my country.
You're still running ICS, TeamEOS is Jellybean the newest version of Android
There are some bugs, but not as many as stock ICS had
Read the main post with hints and tips and read some of the latest posts about the laetst build, I've been running EOS for a long time and love it, best my TF has ever run
EOS thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2063406
If you are not bothered about the latest ROM, EOS3 #81 with KatKernel is a very stable and fast build of Jellybean 4.1.2
Are there any known bugs? I can't find them.
Does the rom come with the kernel integrated? Or do I have to install it manually?
Also I can't find #81. Here http://goo.im/devs/teameos/roms/eos4/nightlies/tf101 the oldest is #82.
The latest 4.2.2 which number is? The last (#109)?
Known bugs are mainly in the comments, as things change with each build
EOS3 #81 is here (EOS4 starts #82)
http://goo.im/devs/teameos/roms/eos3/nightlies/tf101/
All ROMs come with their own kernels, but you generally find the separate kernels are much better than the stock ones, EOS & KatKernel is definitely a good match
There are two branches of EOS4, Nightlies and Previews, you'll find the links to each in post 2 of the EOS4 thread, explanations of each are there too
Personally if you want a 99.99% bug free ROM, try EOS3 #81 & KatKernel #69 and Gapps (Google Apps)
Main bug in EOS4 is lag on the homescreen scrolling
Workaround is Hold power button until menu appears and choose to hide NavBars = Smooth scrolling
So the main bug is just the scrolling! Nice.
I will try firstly the eos4 and then the other if the first has bugs.
Should I keep their kernel? Or do you recommend to flash another?
I want the rom to be stable because some days I leave it to my mother to play angry birds and I don't want it to get stuck. :/
On my hands it can be a bit laggy
Yea the main issue is just slightly laggy scrolling but it only affects the homescreens, inside app draw or any other app it is very smooth
I suggest KatKernel with any TeamEOS ROM, #103 is the latest for EOS4
http://downloads.timduru.org/android/tf101/K.A.T/kernel/Tim_KatKernel_103_JB4.2_Lidpatch.zip
#69 is the latest for EOS3

Man in the download page of eos4 the 109 seems to be the latest version as it says 20th of April. The 103 says 26th of March. Are you sure that 103 is the latest?
I installed the 109 nightly. Now testing. Seems to have an issue with video playback. The same file that was playing with the stock rom, now says "the video cannot be played".
#109 Nightly is the latest ROM
#103 KatKernel is the latest KatKernel
KatKernel is a much better kernel than stock
Clear cahce and dalvik cache, Flash the ROM, then clear both caches, then flash the Kernel and clear caches again, then flash Gapps and clear caches again, then reboot, that's how I always do it
MX Video Player & ARMv7 Codecs Pack plays just about anything for me, you might need to switch to software decoding when the video fails to play using hardware decoding though, same with certain audio tracks if you get no sound on the video
Grab the Kat Audio enhancer app too, that has a load of goodies for EOS4

Thanks man! You are great!
Something more, I have two accounts on the tablet with 4.2.2 but when I install apps from the main, they are not appearing in the second.
What can I do? Do I have to reinstall them from the other account?
I haven't had a chance to play around with adding extra accounts yet so you'll have to figure that one out

Google has changed on Android 4.2 for tablets. You can share a tablet with others. If you create a second user. It will bring you to the setup just like a new device. For example if you installed a custom launcher on first user, it will not appear on the second. So all homescreen customizations, apps and also accounts will be seperated.
