JellyBelly ROM (CM10) Version 3 Issues - EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I recently installed the JellyBelly ROM v.3 (CM10) on my EVO Shift. I really appreciate the work that the devs are doing on this ROM. I am posting some bugs I encountered after running the ROM for a day. I hope this info helps make the ROM more stable and polished for the entire community. This is my way of giving back right now. Thanks for all the hard work guys!
Green Box During Boot Screen Bug - During boot the HTC screen with white background is displayed for a few seconds, then the boot animation appears. During the transition between the HTC screen and boot animation you can see the HTC screen turns into a green box and fills the upper 30% of the display for a second or two prior to the boot animation starting. This is not a critical bug, yet it may point to a larger underlying video issue in the system. If nothing else, it could give a poor first impression about the ROM quality due to graphic glitches.
Random Screen Freeze/SOD Bug - For no apparent reason the device would lock up and refuse to respond to touch input or pressing the power button. I was forced to remove the battery several times in order to reboot the device. I was unable to establish exactly what caused the lock up, but I was curious if the CPU settings and clock settings might be to blame?
Camera Green Line Bug - After I took a couple pictures I reviewed them in the Gallery app. I immediately noticed that my pictures all had a green line down the left side. I thought that perhaps the stock Camera app was to blame so I installed CameraZoom, a third party camera app as a replacement to the stock Camera app. The result was that the entire upper half of the images taken with CameraZoom app were solid green. I'm not sure if the driver or the app is to blame for this experience.
Facebook App Crash Bug - The Facebook app refused to launch without crashing for me.
I want to run this ROM as my primary ROM, but these issues, except for the Boot Screen Bug, are show stoppers for me. Keep up the great work. I look forward to version 4!

The boot animation thing happens even when there is no boot animation... All the others I have fixed except Facebook, working on that at the moment. Once that is fixed v4 will be up... Facebook seems to be taking up way more RAM than it should The camera line is caused by the 4.2 camera, I took it out and replaced it with 4.1 camera. BTW I got your message, but was unable to respond to it.

Been running this since V2 came out and have seen your issues as well. When the screen locks up I just wait for a minute or so and the current app stops and doesn't require battery pull. Can't wait for those fixes.

Thanks for the info. What was causing the phone to stop responding to input and how did you fix it? Also, do you have a complete list of outstanding bugs that have been reported so far?

Actually you got all the bugs reported except Netflix... I got Facebook working, but now wifi won't turn on
The main issue with JB on the Shift IMO is RAM dispersion, which is mainly what I am working on.

Great info! Also meant to ask, why are there two flashlight applications installed? Why is Flipboard installed by default? Seems like Flipboard is kind of an odd default app.

Because it is a work in progress (I was testing them and forgot to remove one), and flipboard works better than Facebook

Got Facebook fixed, but I don't like how much performance I am having to give up to keep it from crashing... I'm hoping there is a perfect median, I just haven't found it yet. I have noticed quite a bit of difference between launchers also. This is my first dive into JB, so it's been a learning process. Got one more thing to try tonight.

I have had issues with the keyboard. on V3 Im not sure how it will work out with the V4. In most cases i would have to hold the . Shift button instead of just tapping it one to cap a letter. and then it resumes to lower case letters. ive also had to Hold FN to Create symbols instead of tapping just once. to make that symbol. over all it is a great rom i do have by far great expectations of it . i will re-flash once. some of those kinks are out such as the green line on the photos. as far as 4g goes i can careless about it considering the fact that i have no 4g in my local area .
As far as FB Goes i never use it ( Its a relationship killer ) xD
None the less keep up the great work on Deving the Rom .
I look forward to future updates. and maybe a keyboard fix. where it was like originally having it .
( Also random Closing of the browser . Ive had a few on V3 . But as i said im not sure what V4 will have in store for me. )

v4 is up and most of said bugs have been eliminated:sly:
You can post any v4 issues here if you change the title of the thread.

Camera app won't start from home screen.

I'm having an issue (sometimes), when I tap on camera icon at home screen the camera app flashes for a moment and I'm back on home screen. I've tried many times tapping on the icon nonstop, it just quits instantly.
But when I start camera app from all programs list or lock screen, it always starts fine.
Anyone experienced this?
What could cause this?
i had the same problem the other day .. my camera app would not open! it just did exactly what you described .. i even closed all the recent apps to see if it was low memory.. it still didn't work.. but a simple restart of the phone cured it ... not really sure what happened but hasn't happened again yet knock on wood

Same thing happened to me and i also restarted my phone. Hasn't happened since.

its probably just android being android .. hahaha no but seriously .. prob just a memory glitch or something
Reboot usually cure most bugs for while, but with this particular one it's interesting, that camera would start if started from lock screen or all apps list after it wouldn't start from home screen. Once it started it then starts fine frome homescreen too.
Very strange.
So yea the camera been acting up a lot lately ... It has happened 3 more times since I last posted on this thread..I have to reboot for it to start working again ... Its soon annoying!!! I missed the moments I needed to capture a pic because of it!! Not sure what the culprit is
Just remove it from your dock and place back...that is alot easier than rebooting and should work fine.

Upgraded to ruu 1.85 - still same problem.
Same issue here. I will try and open the camera app up and it immediately crashes. It doesn't even really open, it just flashes the camera buttons and goes back to the home screen. It has happened to me at least 10 times since I've purchased the phone.
Restart is the only thing that alleviates the issue. Any ideas? Let's keep this going because it is pretty annoying to have to restart the phone just to use the camera.

But when this happens, have you tried any of these:
1) open app list (middle soft button) and then start the camera from home screen
2) start camera from app list
3) lock the phone with power button, and drag camera icon to the unlock circle.
For me either of the above fix the problem, never had to do reboot...
I posed this in a similar thread in the general section, here is a video of it happening.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X4hDD-hMiF0
Moving out of the dock had no effect, Instagram can still use the camera hardware, but the stock camera app cannot, i wonder if it has ties with the image sense chip and is on all the time and crashes due to something....

I'm also getting this problem. It only happened once in a while at first but has now gradually gotten worse and worse. Now I can't take any pictures with my One X. Even rebooting the phone doesn't fix it. It's funny that the Instagram camera still works perfectly fine though.

List of issues with AOSP rom's

There are a bunch of AOSP rom's for our phone, most of them share the same issues since it's the same code, with slight differences based on which commits they've added. I'm hoping we can list the common issues in one thread as a reference.
1. Data handoffs between 3g/4g - I believe this is now fixed in most of them after the RIL patches, right?
2. Call volume - This CM10 commit (http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#/c/24564/) should fix this. Not in most rom's yet
3. Bluetooth pairing, call connect, streaming - does this work fully in any AOSP rom?
4. Sleep of death
5. Wakelock caused after playing media (DirectTrack)
6. Camera issues, like save to sd. The JB mod camera hasn't been updated yet.
7. Misc battery life issues - are most of these due to #5?
8. Activation issues after a flash
9. Low video recording volume
10. Notification light problems
11. 160 char sms limit, MMS doesn't work
12. Problems waking up with home button
13. Screen redraw issues (these can be fixed by turning off hardware overlays, but that increases cpu consumption)
I think it would be very helpful if we could track which rom's had which fixes merged, since otherwise it's hard to tell without asking in each thread, doing a lot of searches, and trying out.
Slimbean:
-Wake lock issue still seams to be an issue, battery life is bad
-notification light not working when call/text/email etc come in. Will be patched on next release
-data seams stable enough (ril patch is active on most recent build)
-horrible battery life
-call volume will be patched on next release
-home button to wake up phone is hit or miss
-odd screen glitches every now and then (fully live withable)
-mms sending takes forever, needed several reboots to even get it to work
-if usb fast charge is available in your kernel, it has a toggle for it in the notification tray (awesome)
-did I mention the battery life is bad?
-soft key light options do not work
I'll report more as I find them. I like these threads, good call.

Add low video recording in all AOSP Roms. As far as I know this has not been fixed yet.

I am using slimbean 2.5 and I am getting anywhere from 16 to 24 hours of battery life on a single charge (3-4 hours of screen) which is about normal for any AOSP/AOKP based rom.
I actually made a similar list, but deals with comparing TW quirks to AOSP quirks:
Touchwiz VS. AOSP
Touchwiz:
- No Bluetooth and Aux input simultaneously
- Wallpaper Cropping forced to non-scrolling
- No way to disable auto volume reduction upon headset plug-in
- God awful front end interface design (this is more of an opinion)
- Google Music will randomly stop working, requires screen to be turned on for it to start playing the next track
AOSP:
- Volume Quirks (upon reboot, media volume will play quiet regardless of where the slider is, if maxxed you must turn it down and then up again similar to the call volume issue)
- Call Volume at Max every call (wasn't this fixed recently?)
- Wrongly uses noise reduction mic for recording (thus quieter)
- Inferior Camera (features mainly)
- Worse battery life
- Sometimes drops data
- Not as buttery as ICS for some reason (recents excluded)
- Will frequently kill background apps, making 2GB of ram somewhat pointless
- Bluetooth streaming issues (This doesn't personally affect me but I thought I'd throw it in anyway)
Basically, the one with the shorter list wins. So, I'm on TW for now but I yearn for the AOSP list of quirks to shrink.

I've been told this has been fixed, but I still experience it. Is there a workaround for this currently?
I believe that there is a big tracker which is linked to on the irc chat. I would link to it but I'm not at my pc.perhaps someone could do so?

This 1? http://tinyw.in/25QW
Number 6 is not really a problem. It's all based on personal preference.
Number 1 was fixed. Sleep of death could be kernel and/or clock speed settings. Mms works fine. There is a fix somewhere for direct track. Battery issues? Umm mines been perfect. That could be contributed to people not knowing what's causing wake locks and not fixing it. Not sure how anybody is getting screen redraws I haven't disabled hardware overlay and mine is fine, using apex if that makes a difference.
Most if not all of those issues are non existent in liquid smooth.
Hope this is the right spot to post this question. I tried flashing 2 separate roms today (Slim Rom and Liquid Smooth) which I believe are both AOSP, but I could be wrong. On both occasions, it starts to boot and gets to the google account login screen and the screen on the phone just keeps flickering and goes black.
I am unlocked, obviously rooted, with CWM 6.0.1.1 and have flashed JB TW rom in the past with no problems but went back to TW ICS, which I am currently running now.
Anyone know or direct me to the right thread as to why the screen flickering happens after flashing these AOSP roms? I haven't tried CM10 yet because these other roms actually sound more stable than CM10 right now.
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

That might work, but I cannot even get into the OS to disable anything. It is completely unusable when I flash any of these roms.
Would there be something out there that I could flash in CWM to disable this in the rom pre-boot?

Nothing that I know of sorry.
One of the main reasons I don't use any AOSP roms is because of the bluetooth sync issue. In two of my cars, it will sync for the first time, but any other time I get in the car it won't pair up. I have to manually connect it every single time.
wifi errors, i get out of range and or wps failed on any aosp rom.
I find that signal is just not as strong as compared to Touchwiz roms.

[Q] Skyrocket Camera not working properly (App is freezing/crashing)

I've been having camera issues with my Skyrocket for a while now. About 1/4 the times I start up my camera app, it will display what the camera is seeing, but none of the user interface is there. No option buttons, no focus rectangle - nothing. If I try to hit the back button, it lags out for a while and will usually (after 30+ seconds) tell me that the camera app is not responding. If I hit the Home button, it takes me back home, but opening the camera app again will still show the camera's view without the UI.
If I follow this guy's suggestion, it does work.
http://david.feinzeig.com/blog/2012...galaxy-s-ii-or-other-samsung-android-devices/
However, this process is tedious and time consuming, especially if this is happening 1/4 the times I use my camera. I use my camera a lot on my phone, and this has been a huge PITA. This might just be speculation on my part, but I don't recall having this issue before rooting my phone. I was hoping that by upgrading from Seanz ICS to [4.1.2] [UCLL3] Stock Debloat it would solve my problem, but unfortunately it hasn't.
Does anyone know of a more permanent way of preventing the camera app from crashing so frequently?
I just wanted to bump this one final time to see if anyone had any suggestions for me. I still have no clue why it's failing to boot the camera's UI sometimes, but it is extremely annoying and I would appreciate any help, suggestions, or even hypotheses at this point.

return to stock with odin and see if that cures it, wipe before and after returning to stock ics, if its still a prob then its hardware failure
edit: or an app that youre installing is interfering wth the camera, or sdcard issues
Download ICS Camera from the Play Store. Works great even when stock camera isn't. I don't know why.

[Q] trying to use camera from lock screen results in crashreboot

I flashed 5.0 onto my Nexus 5 a while back and have been loving it. But there is a MAJOR issue I have encountered.
If, from the lock screen, i swipe to open the camera (I use Google's camera app) then swipe on the charms and select video and press record... i can almost always reproduce an immediate forced reboot it makes me very sad.
I have tried wiping the system cache... i'm not sure what else to do...
any advice?
bumping... been playing around with my N5 more and more and still getting the issue.
I notice that it happens in other camera apps that can take videos as well. Not just google's official camera app.
Also, it does not have to be launched from the lock screen for it to occur. sigh.
there have been a few times where i can get it to successfully record a video... but i can't reproduce it all the time. MOST of the time it crashes my entire phone
Same here. Noticed they pushing 5.01 out... Maybe a fix. I've had every Nexus and early software is allways buggy, IMO
thanks so much for replying. just glad it's not only my phone, you know?
I think I found a workaround until google fixes it. and they better.
if you open the camera and switch it to video mode but BEFORE pressing record, if you toggle the thunderbolt (light) on and off at least once (doesn't matter if you leave it on or on afterwards), then start recording it SHOULD work without rebooting... at least it has so far.
Dont have the issue on mine, i have the ElemantalX kernel though but i dont think that makes a difference

I'm certainly not suggesting the issue doesn't exist, but I cannot reproduce this on my stock 5.0 installation.
That being said, there are seemingly lots of Lollipop bugs that some people get and others simply do not... in my experience that'll probably make them a little more time-consuming to fix.
Well, a little good news... I hope?
I did a flash to 5.0.1 stock and i can't reproduce it anymore. videos record perfectly fine.
now let's give it a week or so of me dicking around with various apps and settings and see how that goes

Those of you on pie with camera issues, let's make some noise

Those of you who think you solved the problem by "doing a clean flash" feel free to show yourself out, you're not helping us we've already done that. Some of us several times.
OnePlus forums are broken for me, I can't register, it keeps just sending me back to the OP home page. Several people have the same problem there. So this is the last hope for those of us with pie camera issues, I don't know that OP has acknowledged camera issues so if we want any help, the best thing we can do is work together, make some noise, so OP can actually see the problem. Personally, no amount of reflashing, downloading, etc will fix the issue on pie for me. I'm rooted with Magisk and unlocked bootloader obviously, that's it. No kernels or custom "ROM" or anything.
Again, if you've solved it, good for you, get out. You have nothing to contribute to this thread and I know this forum is absolutely loaded with trolls who just blame everyone else for every ROM problem.

Yep, my friend also works in testing firmware and hardware compatibility on android phones and as soon as I told him more than just a few people (I've seen at least 15 different people report this issue, and let's be honest a lot of people won't bother to report it and even more people don't have accounts here to post it if they do have the issue) had it he said sounds like firmware issue, possibly related to hardware revisions.
Boring explanation warning: For example there may be very slight differences in say CPU or camera hardware, enough that it passed bench testing or was supposed to not even require bench testing because it was guaranteed 100% compatible, but as time goes on, maybe just one line of code somewhere does something that causes the very slight difference to manifest itself in a way that becomes apparent to everyday users.
That's just one possibility out of dozens though.
I agree in 100%, it's something broken with camera on Oxygen based on Pie.
I use the stock ROM, i did full wipe etc without positive effects.
We wan't fix or update to use the phone normally...
What is the Camera issue ?
Maybe if you are specific and tell us what is wrong with the Camera ?
How can anybody help if you can not be bothered to say what the problem is ?
.... Do not have kittens, I done a Google search and all I found was several months ago some talk about focusing.
I took some pictures ... not many but so far so good.
I would be more than happy to complain .... what do I look for ?

For example: Snapchat app. After 5s app frozen, black screen. On other phones everything ok...
Oneplus 6 & Tapatalk
For me, when I open snapchat, the camera will usually work for 5 to 20 seconds, no more, then the image freezes for a second before it goes black, and then every app that uses the camera for a little while will freeze/crash. Including the stock camera app if you try to access camera features in those apps.
Say I just turned on my phone, I go to open snapchat and the screen works as a viewfinder like normal for maybe 5-20 seconds, then the image freezes for a second before it goes black. The snapchat app no longer responds. If I try to open the camera in another app (say discord, stock camera app, instagram, etc) that app then freezes too. Half the time the only way to fix it is to force close all involved apps.
It goes back to working again within 5-10 minutes but you only have generally 5-10 seconds to take a picture before it freezes and does the same thing.
Occasionally when I open the stock camera app after snapchat freezes, it closes itself and a little toast notification on the bottom of the screen says "Unknown error". Usually camera app opens fine after that.
I think this tread explains very well and in detail, the REAL problems with OP6...
https://forums.oneplus.com/threads/oneplus-6-camera-takes-blurry-and-noisy-pictures.864226/
Painted faces, lack of detail, wrong temperature colour....etc,etc....
I am also experiencing these issues since i upadated to official Pie, didn't have any problem with DP1 & DP3 thought. Also i only have this on Snapchat, didn't experience any problems with the official camera.
Let's hope it's a known issue and that it will be solved in the next update.
Where exactly do we complain?
I have the same issue as well. My fiance does too. I'm on xXx module with EX kernel and my fiance is 100% stock with a locked bootloader.
I've done a clean flash before as well.
Sounds like it's either a snapchat issue or OP issue. I think there was some notes from other users having issues taking pictures with WhatsApp since pie. Could be related

Try emailing both snapchat support and posting on the OnePlus 6 official forum (on the oneplus website). I feel like it's not snapchat because it's happened on other apps for me.
I am on OB4 and have some other camera issues. When U open the camera app and select Timelapse all I get is the video capture screen and no option to set the time lapse setting. I alse get the standard 1x , 2x zoom option and it all it does is zoomes.
focus sucks
I'm on stock Pie, no root - some examples here how the focus socks: auto mode, (1) normal photo (2)about 3.5 zoom (3)~x5 (4) x8 I have gopro modified handlebar attachment on my bike, so consider it as if those pics were taken still and steady from a tripod.

My phone/camera field stand - 2 pics, the 3rd pick shows zoomed detail of one of the islands there taken with my cheap, pocket Casio EX-ZR800 which has unbelievable zoom: x18 optical + x36 so called 'SR Zoom, does 1000fps as well, 224x64only let's hope they bring some of that technology to phones soon.

For me, when I open snapchat, the camera will usually work for 5 to 20 seconds, no more, then the image freezes for a second before it goes black, and then every app that uses the camera for a little while will freeze/crash. Including the stock camera app if you try to access camera features in those apps.
Say I just turned on my phone, I go to open snapchat and the screen works as a viewfinder like normal for maybe 5-20 seconds, then the image freezes for a second before it goes black. The snapchat app no longer responds. If I try to open the camera in another app (say discord, stock camera app, instagram, etc) that app then freezes too. Half the time the only way to fix it is to force close all involved apps.
It goes back to working again within 5-10 minutes but you only have generally 5-10 seconds to take a picture before it freezes and does the same thing.
Occasionally when I open the stock camera app after snapchat freezes, it closes itself and a little toast notification on the bottom of the screen says "Unknown error". Usually camera app opens fine after that.

I also experience trouble with the camera. Zoomed in using snap. When I take pictures with stock camera app the shutter seems rly slow. Bad focus etc. Everything worked fine before Android pie. Good thread!
I was waiting to see if it would immediately **** up after I posted this, but it's been a few days since the last snapchat update and I no longer have the problem at all, at least that I ever noticed.

Same here. At first I thought it's cause I don't let it focus anymore since that causes the issue but it seems to be resolved for now. Now time for the rest of the pie issues to be fixed.
Agree. Happening with all the apps which use the system's camera. However, If we use the Camera app then it will work. but any 3rd party app that uses system camera it got stuck and crash.
