As some of you have come from the captivate know what I did there with Rom Q&A threads. I am doing the same here. In an effort to clean up the site. All Rom related question shall from now on be posted in the proper Q&A or will be deleted on sight.
So was it strange that I was never told this thread even existed and had no idea until just now? For anyone still having problems, a few troubleshooting techniques:
-When installing, are you sure you cleared cache and dalvik? If coming from a major release to a major release, did you do a full wipe instead?
-Are you using the proper radio, as posted in the first post of the thread?
-Are you using any task managers or antivirus apps?
i just flashed 1.2.11 to my phone which i decided to finally root after about 4 months, and i love it. I installed barnacle due to the stock hotspot debacle and when i go to use it it tells me that NAT is not connected. now here at work, where i am testing it, i dont have great connection but i can get 3g to work here. what does it mean when NAT does not connect?
Sorry, no answer here on the hotspot issue. Have you PMd Mister ClearD? He is very responsive and has been working hard on this whole hotspot issue... he'd likely be very interested in your problem.
I too am running 1.2.11, and am delighted with it. However, I am wondering if there is any way to get more volume out of the speaker for ringtones and alarms. I have them maxed out on the phone's adjustments, but it's still awfully quiet.
Michael look for an app called volume+ made by meltus I believe in the market. It works with gingerbread but not froyo. There is a few other fixes for the volume limit but I can't link them currently because I am on my phone. Do a search for it and it should come up. If someone doesn't post it up.

Thanks, got it and it does help!

Hello,
Last night I flashed the latest ClearDroid ROM 1.1.51, but when I check under the software information menu, it says the Android version is 2.2.1
The flash seems to work because it says it's running Cleardroid.
Shouldn't it be running the Gingerbread (2.3) update or am I mistaken?
Also, the data connection seems to screw up, and only works when it wants. Sometimes ROM Manager will disappear from the apps menu.
I did a full wipe before flashing and it still won't work.
I also just flashed CoreDroid and it did update to 2.3 , but I want my stock HTC theme back!
Thanks!

The version 1.1.51 is still on froyo build but has the new ril for gingerbread. On the first page of the Dev post he has a link to the matching radio. Give it a flash and see if it helps with your data connection. If you want gingerbread his version 1.2.xx is the gingerbread Rom (still in beta), it has the fix for messaging but he is still working on tethering. It's still the stock look to the dot
On the app side I don't know what could be going on there, sorry I couldn't help on that point, (since I'm not having that particular error)

im personally running 1.2.12 RC2 which is his latest Beta, along with the suggested radio. i dont have any problems with network and it looks and behaves great while keeping that stock look. honestly i love this ROM. if you have any major questions just send ClearD a PM and he will get back to you. probably my favorite dev because he is so thorough and responsive to his followers.

to post my own answer ClearD told me that 1.2.12 has a working tether program. he is still working on making the stock tether work but for now the one he has included in the rom works great so no need for barnacle
Thanks Pytheous and Hiyabuz! I'll give the latest beta a shot because last night I flashed the rooted AT&T stock rom and my battery life improved but I'm still having data problems. Now I'm not sure if it's my cell company or the ROM that's causing the problems.
I'm afraid of flashing the radio and losing my signal completely!

This ROM, from what i can tell, is basically a stock ROM with all of the bloatware crap taken out, and a few cool gadgets added here and there. I love the ROM and the way it feels, but what i love the most is the responsiveness of the Dev for the ROM. If i have an issue i just send him a PM and he either sends me an answer or gets to work on it right away.
as for the radio i flashed the reccomended one on his original dev post and i actually get better signal in most places.
I also have another question of my own. i wanted to test out the GPS last night and it seemed a little more sluggish than stock. i could be immagining things but i was wondering if anyone else was having this problem also.

ok thanks buz. i just wanted to check
i only used it for about 3 min so it wasnt a very good judge of use
For example yesterday I retried mine first reconnect of gps after upping to new radio took 5 mins without vase and was sluggish. With case it took almost 10, today with case on first lock took 14secs with an 8 sat lock inside and using my case. its been awesome since he put in the gps fix. B4 it could take up to 30 mins for first lock without my case and it was only like 4 sats.

Noob here, I flashed the ClearDroid 1.2.12 rom a couple of days ago and love it. The only thing i want to change is the secure box in the messages menu. I would like to hide it or remove it, is it possible? Any help is appreciated, I did search I swear I did.
Will the Tiny audio fix work with this rom?
Issues with using latest gingerbread build.
Hello CleardDroid team;
I am a big fan your ROM, it works great on my phone. I have some serious issues using this ROM;
1) I am unable to compose message, when i try to compose message it force closes. I have tried alot to fix the issue but unable to resolve it. I have cleared its data, restarted it, fix the permissions using ROM manager, but failed to fix the issue.
2) Hotspot is not working, but I guess you are working on it.
does this rom has simplified Chinese locale and AOSP screen locker?
I'm not able to install it with htddev unlock with hboot 2.0002.
I manually flashed the boot.img. but it goes into recovery mode when power on.
any ideas?
Yeah - start reading the FAQs and other threads before asking the same question that a thousand other people have already asked.
thanks for the reminder. I will look into other threads. hope to find the answers.

Hello all, I installed Fallout 440 this morning (was using miui GB), but I noticed that my phone gets a bit hot after using it for a while. Is that expected being beta? Should I lower cpu speed? I own setcpu but don't use it currently.

How long were u on ur phone? How hot is hot? It is normal for the phone to get hot either by the battery or the screen when on. Either way i dun think it should be an issue. if you are worried and have sleepless nights then setcpu to the reasonable rate 300 -1100.
sometimes, after a call, my phone restart. i like android 4, but this bug is not acceptable for daily use...
where do I switch the connect ways when I connect with computer with usb? I did not find the option in the pull down list as I did with sense 3/Android 2.3?
only quick settings in the pull down list.
another 2 questions,
1. where to set the GMS only/WCDMA preferred..... options, usually in the network setting, now I can only set it in *#*#4636#*#*.
2. how to separately set the volume for ringtone and notify? they are put together in this rom.
thanks in advance.

has anybody try icecoldsandwitch, and which is the best rom of the two
fallout or icecreamsandwitch?
fallout works like a charm for me non single crush ICS roms are not so stable and crush at full load like gaming or when generating picture prev and also camera is far better in fallout, in ics it is not even stable to tell
fallout is awesome....fast, stable, smooth, and there is more the BATTERY life is superb...

The purpose of this thread is to keep people updated on the status of various ROM's for the VZW SGSIII, because although the search button is our friend, sifting through pages of progress is cumbersome for a few of us. This is not a babysitting thread, though - I'm not posting hundreds of links to different pages and answering ROM tech support questions ( at least not all of the time ). If you post pending issues with the ROM, we can get them here and also post work arounds and fixes in a centralized area so as to not clutter the ROM sub forum. This thread will have THREE major parts.

I will be adding more ROM's as they come and as I have more time to. At night when my wife and daughter are passed out, I test these ROM's extensively. I also decompile and check everything out, just to see what might make one tick. You can post any questions you have here, and this way the devs have a centralized thread to look at where major concerns can be posted and fixes/updates/patches can be relayed just incase you missed a reply/skipped a page using the xda mobile app/etc.

Part 2: Complaints, Workarounds and Fixes
---------+++++-------------------+++++-------------------+++++-------------------+++++-------------------+++++----------
Q: I lost my ability to do direct call from text after flashing this rom, and a theme.
A: I'm willing to bet you didn't realize the stock mms was replaced by the AOSP version. Luckily for you, forum post #298 in the Jellybean Domination v7.2 thread has a stock MMS fix, that is also themed blue.
Q: I flashed paranoid android and i lost complete cellular service, and I have no IMEI! Why would they make a ROM like this?
A: It's a fault somewhere between flashing this rom and K-Exec doing it's job. We don't know exactly whats causing it yet. But chances are if you would have READ you would have heard about this being the number one RISK as of right now, and backed up your EFS/IMEI accordingly. A link on how to do just that is in the first part of this thread.
Q: SynergyROM people said that tethering works and VZW Mobile Tethering is broken. What gives?
A: I could have sworn they included a different WiFi hotspot app that works off of one touch. Look for it
Q: Google Now isn't working. I installed the APK and all it says is initializing.
A: As far as I know Google Now is a jelly bean addition, correct? We are on Ice Cream Sandwich. We can't really expect everything to work. A working google now can be found in the Paranoid Android ROM, which is AOSP and Jelly Bean'd.
Q: The Dev(s) of (variable) ROM haven't replied to me or addressed my issue directly. Whats the point of being a dev?
A: This is not the Devs job. The Dev makes the ROM. The Community flashes, tests, and reports bugs/problems. The dev then finds the time to fix these issues when he/she/they can. You're not a twelve year old in a ROM candystore where every ROM is a Daily Driver until this bootloader situation gets handled properly.
Q: Awesome Beats doesn't seem to be working, help!
A: Just because it's on there doesn't mean it's supposed to work. It's experimental, and some people have given the nod and others the axe. Your model may vary. I do have a modified SGSII version of a beats script I've been working on that i've test flashed on mine that works, and I'll pass that out after some more testing and after I find the creator of it and get his/her permission, at least so I can give proper credit for the original compiling.

Hey guys, this is for you. It looks like confirmation of the efs/imei backup working on more than one person. This comes from Paranoid Android thread. I hope this helps!
It is now.. I have data AND voice. Where previously I did not.
itsmefu is correct. I used the backup from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=29201792#poststop
To elaborate, I went from:
stock rom->rooted with root66 rom->made a backup of my IMEI/EFS
I did not know this but for some reason this phone views our internal storage as SD CARD whereas the actual "physical" SD CARD is named EXT SD Card... so when i first backed it up I was unaware of this... but I had used the method I linked to back up the IMEI/EFS. So that there is an EFS.BIN on my EXT SD Card.
I than updated my kernel to the latest OTA->updated my baseband to the latest OTA (I advise rolling back to the previous baseband as this baseband is HORRIBLE...)
|_->downloaded the vzd2 image recovery from this thread->downloaded JB GAPPS->downloaded paranoid droid
|_->booted into recovery using three finger method->data wiped->cache wiped->dalvik cache wiped
|_->installed PARANOID ANDROID-> installed JB GAPPS
|_->rebooted... and my data/voice was broken.
SO:
went back to recovery->nandroided back (^ok sorry i forgot I nandroid before the whole installing process...)
|_->got back to root 66 rom with root.
|_->downloaded terminal emulator
|_->followed the instructions to push the imei/efs back into the phone.
|_->rebooted.
Working data and voice. Got 4g/3g/and VOICE (<-the MOST Important).
Repeated the appropriate steps to install Paranoid Android..
Now i have working data/voice.. 4g and 3g.. Going to roll back to previous baseband though as with this new baseband I'm dropped 4g, 3g constantly at the areas when i had constant 4g and 3g! 
---------- Post added at 01:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:06 PM ----------
I can't really confirm but I know I had ALOT of zeroes in my IMEI with broken data and voice... so I'm pretty sure I had it, as I lost connection to network in total.. basically a broken phone but a working wifi tablet? haha.

Please update and say that the backup is at least working.. so it is a verified backup in a sense. So people won't be as scared as before since then the backup was a HUGE if. I can verify this because I made the backup, lost data & voice compeltely, and than rerolled backup and now have a working phone!

May want to make sure it's confirmed on more than one device and total IMEI loss before adding to the main post.
Rather clutter than people flashing and borking phones because of bad info. Mods delete this after a solution has been found and then no more clutter.
Yayyy clutter to arrange clutter....... stupid...

Are you talking about the lift to call motion here? If so, that has worked for me on both versions of nosympathy's ROM as well as the most recent synergy ROM.
Pretty sure if the stock MMS gets replaced by a theme/ROM direct call gets borked.
Didn't say it was won completely working, but it's better to have a backup then it is to flash and then be pissed off. One if the main reasons I made the thread is just so people can be aware. There are plenty of roms and same day developers and assholes and trolls, but we need more people helping instead of demeaning. At least now they can look and SAY OK, there is a huge warning in red regarding k-exec and AOSP Roms. Instead of people dev bashing it can help. Also I don't consider this thread clutter.

It should work on any rom based off of mine. Synergy is one of those.
He is posting it mainly because there are some themes out there that default the stock ICS mms.apk instead of the TW secmms.apk that is in my bases. No one had a working deodexed secmms.apk until I released my first base.

Absolutely. Before no sympathy it's safe to say we were stuck, in a way. His tremendous work happened after these themes were being created, and people were blaming the ROM and that's clearly not the problem, and unfair.
Great work by the way no sympathy.

Thats why I suggested the OP to update the thread with the backup to be at least confirmed working for more than 1 person-the orginal OP of the backup efs thread and me-so far... Because than at least people will be less afraid. They still have to be cautious as even getting root is not 100% safe if you don't follow anything to the T.

May want to make sure it's confirmed on more than one device and total IMEI loss before adding to the main post.
Rather clutter than people flashing and borking phones because of bad info. Mods delete this after a solution has been found and then no more clutter.

it is more than one person.. the original OP of that thread and me.. -__-. You can check out the threads of EFS/EMEI backup and Paranoid Android to confirm... This was all posted earlier this afternoon.

Thanks glad you agree with me! Because apparently Farabomb thought it was clutter... which in my aspect I think at least having it worked twice should count as a fundementally WORKING backup vs. a "THEORETICAL" backup... Because realistically till this happened to me we only had one case which was the OP of the EFS thread.. so it wasn't only in theory that it would work.
And i'm pretty sure for a 15 numbers string theres only one way of messing this up..
Btw, thanks Chad for posting what i wrote in the other thread up. And my apologies if it's a bit long, people said they wanted a detailed transcript so I did that..
LOL!
I'm glad it's long. The way people work on xda sometimes, long descriptions and transcripts are needed. I want everyone to work together, because all we will do is benefit!

Slic|<, my comment was in response to the post below me. Sorry if I offended. I was in irc trying to find out if it was just you that came back. I just didn't want people flashing madly without a proven solution. I flashed aokp without issue but I was still wary of trying any other ROMs without a working backup.

Oh.. sorry than. Cuz the two sentences seemed to go hand in hand lol.. And it's cool man. I'm not in IRC. I'm at work lol.. no IRC on government comps! :silly: Yeah that's why I told the OP to post that the backup was working but as already stated FOLLOW EVERYTHING TO A T AND YMMV since that part of the info hasn't changed lol.
Well you can try paranoid android rom now with no worries <--less worries- since I was the unofficial guneai pig... thank god I fixed it though lol. I also just got my 4g working again, had to reset my radio to LTE/CDMA/GSM it was set to GSM/CDMA auto. Reset it with the phone info app. Now i can see if it's better than the last baseband.
Will keep you guys updated.
Hi! I updated my DS to 4.0 via RUU about a 8 days ago. Every thing is going fine except some minor issues. I would like someone to have a look at these and provide any possible solution. :good:
1) My DS is starting to lag. It's like that its been overburden with the processes.
2) The weather wigdet is not locating my location correctly. I tried WiFi, GPRS and GPS, but no use. Its says unable to get the location. Another app was not able to get my location.
3) The browser has also got slower. The internet browsing in the browser and Playstore has slowed down.
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards,

As for the lag and speed I guess HTC stock ROM will never be that fast as custom one. For other issues have u tried to factory reset your phone? I remember this helped me time ago then i updated over OTA to GB and powerbutton didn't work.
There was a very good reason why HTC didn't release v4 as an OTA update - it's buggy and cr4p.
Go and do some reading about custom ROMs if you want something more stable.
If you want the latest Android version and speed, your only option is a custom ROM.
The only positives of the HTC decision to work on this RUU (or ICS update in general is more correct) was the latest firmware (which actually has no confirmed improvements) and the kernel source that actually has the great value, clearly not appreciated by our CM devs (this is not an insult, more a regret)

Read the threads and try some out yourself.
This thread is going to be WIP thread for the porting of CM10 to the Pantech Vega N6 A860 codename e51.
Currently kernels are extracted and device tree wip while I collect the files to be input
https://github.com/VincentEmmanuel/android_kernel_pantech_e51k.git
I welcome anyone who is interested to help out in any way because I am really new in this porting stuff.
WIll update as and when more work is done.
Things working on now
1. Trying to find a suitable msm8960 common files repo (Not sure whether needed this at all but conducting R&D now)
2. Compiling a list of proprietary files needed for the build
God bless.
Vincent
ClockworkMod
ClockworkMod for A860 K/L/S
Flash using fastboot. Instructions are all over XDA so please search.
Thanks
thanks so much for your work...
another than CM10.1 , I also want to see customized kernel which can further enhance A860 , like power tweaks, disable logging, init.d or even add FauxAudio mod
Finally something about te Vega No6
I have the A860K. I installed a customized ROM from here http://mizal.net:82/pantech/NO.6/
Works fine, but it is not very customized. Still would like to get rid of Korean characters.Another kernel. deodexed. Less bloatware, etc.
Any other customizations?
Cheers!

I would not mind helping, but I am even newer than yourself
I am not a programmer, but I know very good shell scripting, PHP, and not so good C and some other useless languages.
I have pro skills in Linux as well (I work with it)
Let me know if I could be of any help.
Cheers and good luck!

Anyone can help in anyway they can! Please take a look at the following page about CM porting.
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Doc:_porting_intro
Currently, I am trying to find a similiar device in terms of hardware and use their kernel github and try to build a test build
Device Tree

I found a gitub source for this device github.com/mifl/android_kernel_pantech_im-860s, but i have no time to verify yet
i would like to help since i just got mine today, but i only do android programming and driver compiling, and i never successfully make a kernel that can boot my galaxy s2 and some chinese tabs
Hi Vincent,
I just bought a A860S and want to back up boot/system/recovery partitions, probably all partitions, except the data one.
Do you know anyway to open those official update .binx file?
Thanks.

I think this is the stock kernel. I think we need to grab a working kernel from Xperia Z or Oppo Find 5 since we are on the same architecture.

I remembered coming across a CWM mod that can allow you to choose which to backup. You can try ROM Toolbox.

As long as it boots, and it is a 3.4.0 kernel, i think it will work with cm10
anyway i am checking out cyanogenmod, but i dont find the a860 cwm recovery_ui.cpp source, only binary... i guess i need time to find the button mapping?
You could get answers from SDA.

There is a working CWM around in the 91dongji forum - works fine on my A860S with 1.30 software; now updating to 1.36 and see if the recovery sticks.
I'll post detailed instructions here once it is confirmed to work
i hope we can get some update on your efforts. though the crowd for this specific device is fewer than a handful for now, a lot of users are just waiting anxiously for any development....
Is there hope for this device to receive custom ROM?
there's a very active community in vegaviet coming up with mods and roms based on stock.you may want to check them out.

I tried flashing the roms from the Vegaviet but i had a problem getting my network to connect. after the restore was complete there was no apn settings for the network. I tried reading but the translations from the website but it dont make sense and no one noticed issue because they are not located in korea.

so why not set up your APN? that should be easy.
Also, using the ROM from vegaviet, i noticed the following observation :
-there was a considerable build-up of lag after three to four days of use, especially when doing a lot of web browsing
-the browser is unable to open some websites/webpages due to Ad-Block restriction
-the forced DNS settings most times slow-down my internet connection
-the keyboard still retains Korean functionality, with Korean characters sometimes getting in the way when typing
-kernel logging was enabled
much of the above were solved using the uninstall zip of crossbreeder - i just noticed our Vietnamese friends are fond of using cross-breeder on all their ROM mods.
the keyboard i uninstalled and deleted the IME file in system and just replaced it using Optimus G Pro's keyboard IME installer.
everything should be all good. don't ask me where i got those zips - a simple search should do wonders for you.
The rom doesn't allow for setting up your own APN. Those features are not available in JB. Thanks for the tips but I just went back to stock since I wasn't able to get the network going.
