CyanogenMod

Okay I am trying to understand everything with cyanogenmod here. so far i have rooted my phone (2.2 voodoo kernel/custom recovery). I am wanting to put cyanogenmod on it because ive seen/heard the many features that it has to offer. Upon reading all this I am coming confused and need to know is there a "Stable and working" cyanogenmod for the samsung mesmerize? and how to put it on the phone if there is. Please and thank you

This has all been covered in the actual CM thread, all of our ROM's are stable they just have some missing features (AOSP built ones anyway)

MMS seems to be an issue right now, i have tried apns backup and reinstall and no luck. The other issue i have noticed is the cameras highest res is 3mp, but is fully functional. I also got 2694 on quadrant, if you have never used cyanogenmod i highly recommend it. Coming from a desire this is a bit of a step backwards, but no other rom will do. That being said, it's highly customizeable compared to other roms i have tried.

So the only thing not working is MMS?

Jesus Christ. Yall read the damn CyanogenMod ROM thread, come on.

Lol... @add im becoming a big fan of yours you are blunt and don't beat around the bush!!!! Funny **** comes from your fingers...

Any tips for using wireless tethering on this ROM? I couldn't find it in Settings so I'm using an app but it unusably slow. Has the stock menu option been removed? I don't see USB tethering either.
Also, is there a way to get Swype back? Maybe this method? http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-841603.html

Barnacle wifi seems to work.

Thanks, I'll check it out. I went back to super clean for the time being, as I also couldn't find any way to access my phone from my windows pc with cyanogenmod - I guess you need a separate app for that too? I will have to do some more research before using that rom. Can't wait, it is by far the easiest on the eyes.

Any word an a "my contacts backup" apk that will run on the cm6?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA Premium App

Why don't you just put your contacts on your Google account?

thats the best way to save contacts cause then it auto syncs back to the phone on any rom

In hindsight ... it would have been the wiser choice.

Anyone else having Bluetooth issues. I can't even enable mine. A friend is running the pbj time kernel says his is running fine. I flashed as posted and I get no Bluetooth. Also he claims to not have the roam triangle. The only difference is the kernel. Any thoughts?
I changed to pbj time kernel. I can now enable and file transfer via Bluetooth

4G Upload Freezing

Hi I'm new here so i apologize if I have posted this in the wrong spot or if there is already a post about this (i checked and couldnt find one) Anyways, i'm having an issue with my SGS4G that drives me INSANE. It happens often. I will be texting or browsing the internet or something and the green arrow pointing up on the 4G symbol freezes. Once that happens im not able to do anything: send texts, load anything, use internet (pretty much anything consisting of data). I actually experienced the problem trying to load up XDA. Any help would be greatly appreciated guys. Thanks.

This is exactly the right forum for this sort of question--just fyi. I've never had that happen though hopefully someone here can help you out. My guess is something running or updating in the background.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA Premium App

Oh thanks i just make sure cuz ive been on forums where people FLIP if u accidently post in the wrong spot. But yeah i hope someone knows why or at least how to stop it. Only way to fix it id to restart my mobile network.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App

i encounter that problem a number of times on the 4g connection. using edge never experiences the problem and i can also remedy if i switch networks.

Are you using Mobile AP by any chance when it happens? I've had my data freeze completely after a good amount of use via Mobile AP. Other than that I haven't noticed any issues.

Whats Mobile AP?

Mine is doing the same thing it is very annoying :'( since I have started using the Bali 1.4uv kernel it happens less frequently. Now when it freezes I click back then reload the page i was on to resume browsing

Heres what i need help with, shud i just stick it out and use it how i am or shud i trade/sell it on CL for something else like a G2X or a Sidekick 4G? Thanks guys.

G2x
Modded gingerbread theme
Whitehawks kd1 deodexed with modded green dialer,modded pull down menu (favorite color is green and favorite football team greenbay packers)

Read up on the g2x lately. It is having lots of issues for lots of people. Tmo even pulled it off their website due to problems with alot of those phones. Random reboots, screen issues like light bleeds and discoloring, and other issues. Some are happy with the device with few of these issues others have had multiple exchanges and still report problems.
They say the gingerbread update will fix some of these when it comes out. I doubt it will fix the screen issues tho. That just sounds like an LG hardware defect. Bottom line do some reading before jumping on the LG g2x bandwagon.

After the issues with this phone i dont even wanna consider the G2X anymore lol. Thank you SO much for the heads up. My brother and my sister have the sidekick 4g and they love it. Has anybody heard anything about that one?

Small MMS

Believe it or not, my search of this forum was unsuccessful in solving my problem. My received MMS pictures are tiny! Several different phones and networks sensing them.
Running leedroid. Thus did not happen once stock. I thought there was a fixed APK, but I can't find it.
At the very least, can someone on stock post their Messaging APK?
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA Premium App

It isn't the apk, it's the default.xml that needs editing. A data wipe also needs to be done.
Check the Dev forum, there are two threads on it.

go to the stock text app then settings multimedia change it to 1000k or higher otherwise try http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1176605

Wow, Swype really screwed that post up.
In any case, it didn't happen on stock, and I'd prefer if my phone didn't have to lie to the network.
Did I read something about a flashable zip? Wiping seems silly.

Official 2.3.6 SMS Failing To Send

Sorry if this has been addressed already, but was wondering if anyone else us having a lot of failed SMS messages since upgrading?
Running totally stock. Seems pretty consistent lately. one large message in particular kept saying failure to send... Although the recipient said he got several copies from me... It never shows as actually having completed.

Were they long texts? When using the KJ6 modem I've found (And heard of) many people complaining longer texts and picture messages would not send. Try using another modem like KI3 and see if its fixed.

I'm currently having the same issue since I upgraded to the official os. I thought maybe I did something wrong by flashing Dr honks kj1 kernel over this ROM. I even called t-mobile and the rep I spoke with was pretty condescending, but I was at work at the time and didn't wanna get irate before a meeting. If there's more people with this issue, hopefully they'll call so it can be addressed.

Try flashing another modem like my post above ;P

all kj6 and 2.3.6 roms have this problem if its even a problem that is.There is max of 160 or 180 chars you can send. When the numbers start to pop up like 5/1 while typing a long text it will almost always fail. If your typing up a long essay to your friend send it through email other wise sms is for only short messages. sms(short message server). I believe its the Tmobile network that limits this per message and theres ane asy work around of either flashing a different modem or typing short messages below 6 lines.

160 for SMS, and some cdma networks can not send / receive anything over that. You can split some messages in some SMS programs like gosms.
Switching to the ki3 moden has stopped my can't send message, however the other person still received the message even though it said the message failed to send.

I've never had this as an issue until just recentlyand it's not isolated to more than 160, even 2liners fail. CDMA limits your message to 160 chars but GSM network have never to my knowledge set a char cap on sms unless if its been recent.

Thanks for the responses. Glad i'm not the only one. It seems to happen regardless of text length, and had definitely only started since upgrading.
In regard to flashing a different modem, will that have a detrimental effect on wifi?

No, the files that improved the wifi are in the system folder, I separated them and posted a thread in the dev section on how to use those files on any room... Yes you can now have improved wifi on any GB ROM the modem.bin file, from what I've seen only delegates mobile radio

[Q] Google Hangout Problems.

Has anyone else tried using google hangouts video chat with their phone? Mind you I am running the sense 5 rom. Every time I start a video chat with my girl on the phone, over wifi or data, it automatically freezes and resets my phone. Any ideas?

I'm also on Sense 5, I'll test when my lady gets home in a couple of hours.

I can confirm video call is not working for me either on Sense 5.
Sent from my Evita using XDA Premium

Thank you. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling but to no avail. I'm not sure if it is the Rom or the app itself. I've read other forums talking about video problems with the app and I know ATT restricted video chat over their network but I am on wifi and it still does not work. If I don't get any other help here, I'll post the problem in the rom thread itself see if I can get a bigger audience.

I'm on the Telstra network here in Australia, so you can rule out the ATT problem, especially seeing as you're using Wi-Fi. Try recording a logcat and posting it for Imagio to look at.

I have been following this thread. I'd test on viper but I have nobody to test with

Haha alright I'll try a go at it again this weekend if I have time and get a logcat of it.

Video calling in hangouts isn't working for me either. Not sure when it will be fixed but we are working on it. Got a lot to do at the on this rom right now.

Same issue on my galaxy nexus

Was gonna say i know a few of you were on sense 5 but when that guy posted about his gnex with the problem i ruled the ROM out. I'll test later when on WiFi.
I could have sworn mine worked but maybe not. Is it force closing on you guys? If so when?
