CM10.1 - Little bugs and Questions - Galaxy S Advance I9070 General

Hi, I´ve made this thread so that we don´t bother in the Devs section.
Last night I´ve flashed CM10.1 by Team Canjica - Nightly 10th September.
It´s an awesome rom!
I´m facing some minor bugs.
1- Ringtones, Alarms and Notifications sounds.
I´ve replaced my Audio folder inside /system/media as I always did. Checked the permissions are set to rw-r-r but I can´t either select those audio files from the audio settings and also, can´t play them. If I put those same files inside the sd, I can play them, but I can´t select them.
2- NDrive
I can´t use nDrive 11. It feezes at start image. Anyone else faced this problem?
3- YouTube
Sometimes freezes, specially when trying to go to other part of a movie with the progress bar.
4- Shortcut / Notification screen
Is it possible to permanently hide the shortcut page that appears before turning on to the notification screen?
5- Governors
Which governor you can recommend for a basic use, phone, whatsapp, some camera, wifi and bluetooth.
6- Sd-Card
Should I format my card or repartion it in any special way to make it work better with CM10?
I´ve been using the same sd since my i9003, using gingerbread, then CM, and afterwards I changed it to my Advance, JellyBean and now CM.
Thanks indeed.

I'm facing troubles with instagram's advanced camera option. That doesn't work, I got black screen. It is solved by disabling HW overlays, but when I reboot the phone the bug returns.

If you're talking about 'quick panel', you can. Settings > system > quick settings panel > quick pulldown > OFF.

When you reboot the phone it aromaticly enables HW overlays.
And I'm also having problems with youtube. In my case it plays the sound and rarely the picture. Any sugestions ?

Download ES File Explorer. Then go to select ringtone in system settings and choose es file explorer.

sd card not mounted
Hi everyone.
I'm trying to install CM10.1 since a few and everytime I'm having some troubles with my sd card.
Basically it doesn't mount.
I have no access at all and i really don't know where to crush my head.
Can someone please help me?
Thanks,
Steve

If you're having problems with your ext-sd you need a file manager like "root browser" or "astro file manager"

Never had that problem.
Is it the first time you face this problem? Did you try it in another device?
Anyone using nDrive or Maps?
nDrive, can´t make it work at all.
Maps > can´t make gps work (it works in oruxmaps and gps status.)
Thanks

For your governor needs you should try ondemandq and sio, works perfect for me and is also good battery wise..
But plz tell me the right governor for hd games on the phone like asphalt 7, it lags a little bit..

[tweak] Change screen resolution (density)

WORKING EXCELLENT with G2X Gingerbread leak update.zip, you will be in love !!!! NO MORE BAGS at all !!!
I was very surprised ! When I saw that LG G2x working EXCELLENT with density "190" with out ANY COSMETIC problem !!!!
Example: My nexus S of cause working too with "190 Density" BUT I got a lot of problem ! BECAUSE "ROM" not intended" to work with higher resolution !!!!!!!... EXAMPLE I got bad LOCK SCREEN, some widgets sucks...etc.
but I remembered first review about LG Optimus 2x, It said that the phone has higher resolution, plus I saw the photo.)
So lets START !
U need Root Explorer !
1) open root explorer.
2) go to system
3) open "Build.prop" (long press on it>open in text Editor)
4) almost at the bottom u will SEE this: ro.sf.lcd_density=240
5) Change 240 on 190
6) Close and save.
7) Fix permissions. (better do it in "rom manager")
8) Restart your phone.
(If you will find any bag, u can easy return everything back, I found only 1 ! On Latitude Icons funny lol!.....)
Unfortunately you can not see all the "buzz" from Screen shots:

Looks weird. What are the advantages? Just that you can see more entries in a scrollable list like Gmail, settings, etc? Does the keyboard get smaller? Smaller keyboard is a no-go for me. I have big fingers.

Yup. Just makes everything smaller so you can view more on the screen at one time than you can by default.
Thanks for thread was curious how to do this outside of using the root tools app. Ended up with a density of 190, its all compact and tiny but the clock text is still visible.

Be aware some apps will no longer render full screen after changing this setting, you'll have to decide what you're willing to deal with if it happens or ask the dev of the app to do whatever it is with their app so it works with other random density.

no, you need to uncheck the compatibilty check box, and then reboot. that will make 95% of apps render correctly on the lower DPI.

I think I know what your problem is...try using the app "media utilities". So now when you set up the hotspot mode you can verify each hotspot to the corresponding action.

Better Explanation
Use 'Media Utilities". Click on the widget (while hotspot is of)> Backgrounds>choose Hotspot> choose 'hotspot #1 and choose shortcut>media utilities action>then 'previous'. Do the same with the play and forward with their corresponding buttons.
I dont have media utilities under the shortcuts and the hotspots are allready assainged as previous and play/pause and next but they dont work exept for the play but it opens up my player pro and starts to play music.

New Rom Tutorial

[APP] 4.4 (and lower?) BackOff, button backlight disabler

I designed a simple app that disables the backlight for the capacitive keys. It also installs an init.d script that disables them at each boot, meaning you can uninstall this app after using it, if you wish.
Perfect for roms that have a navbar but no option to disable the button lights, or anyone who doesn't need the glow to tell you where your buttons are.
I tested this on SkimKat. I'd like to know if it works on JB roms.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gmail.benwalburn.backoff
Edit: I noticed that the screenshots make it look like a widget. This is definitely not a widget, but an app overlaying the home screen. In other news: I'm accepting better screenshots (I don't own this device)
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
Does it have an option to undo the init.d script after it runs? Can it do it on the fly or does it require a reboot?

Sorry about the delay. Does it disable the backlight at all or is it only after a reboot that it fails? Does your rom support init.d?
Also, my app only disables the light, not the actual button.

I decided to give this a go since the option hasn't been merged into AOKP 4.4 yet. It does what it says. Thanks for the simple app.
K, so I hate to go back on this...It is still nice, but it doesn't seem to persist on a reboot. Any thoughts on why that may be?

If it doesn't persist it's because your rom doesn't support init.d. You could try another kernel for now. I'm dabbling at support for roms without init.d, but I hate to make my app run at boot.

Has anyone tried this on the ATT version?
I did everything you said but when I get here to say "OK Google 3 times it wont listen to the first one.
With it force activated via language change etc, the camera will not record video, saying 'unable to record video while in call'. Untick the option for every screen listening and the camera is able to record once again.
So seems like it always listening makes the camera think it is permanently in a phone call. Annoying.
Sorry if it's mentioned already.
Make sure to disable LG "On Screen Phone" if you use it That's what stopped it working on my G2 (International)

Thank you. I can confirm that it works now.
I think it's the initial set up that's causing it to crash. Once you have one app on the toolbox, setting no longer crashes when pressing toolbox.

Wish I would have read this before I did a hard reset
Oh, that's what those 3 dots are!
Thanks, Yoshi! I've been trying to figure out what those 3 Dots were once my Note Pro "downgraded" to 5.02.
I'm having crashes with Toolbox as well. Once I followed your instructions, the 3-dot icon had the apps I picked. Then I realized this was "Toolbox". Of course, a little documentation about what was being changed by version 5.02 would have been a great help. But it seems like it costs too much nowadays to create documents along with hardware/software.
But why would I need Toolbox when I've been using Slider Launcher app for a few months to do the same thing? And Slider doesn't have the 5 app restriction of Toolbox as well.
Now if I can only get my Logitech Pro keyboard and the Samsung keyboard to work like they did under 4.4, and the S-Note widget to show all my notes ... well, here's hoping 5.03 will be soon coming and enhance my tablet instead of degrade it.
