One question, does this rom support Motion Launch gestures? I am not a big fan of htc's power button, so I use that all the time.

Lost root on install
Just installed 1.2. Installation seemed to go normally, but I no longer have root. I've already upgraded the firmware. What am I missing?

Nice rom... This one seems more snappier than that other 5.0 gpe rom...great work!

I keep getting lockups with this ROM. I'm not sure if it's something I have installed or whatnot, but I have had to reset with Power+VolUP about 4 times just today. I do like the speed and snappiness of it, but I just need stability right now. I've seen a few people with this problem, but haven't seen any solutions as of yet. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

I had the same issue a few times within a couple hours, so I ended up just going back to Sense for now.

does this work on the GSM version?

GPS
Upgraded to 1.4 this morning, still loses GPS signal when trying to use Maps for navigation after about 2 minutes, any help?

1.5 / 5.01 update?
I saw that 1.5 was in the works, but the thread has died down. Would be interested in knowing whether the delay is due to the 5.01 code being released and if we're perhaps going to jump to 2.0. Great work @okibi We appreciate your excellent efforts.

To the OP: just wondering if a rebase (with 5.0.1 out in the wild) is in the works for us. Thanks.

Just wondering if everything is okay with @okibi as it appears the thread / development on Vanilla Android Lollipop has died between 1.4 and 1.5. Hope all is well as this is my daily driver and favorite ROM.

Wifi randomly turning off
Got a problem, that I have been seeing randomly with this ROM. Every so often, the wifi on my HTC one m8 will turn off. When I try to go connect again, no networks are available but Wifi is enabled. The fix is to reboot the phone, then upon booting up it automatically connects and all is well until the next time it does this. My firmware is the latest (3.28.605.4). Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Ryan

Did anyone find a fix to the GPS problem?

Yeah, the rom was progressing pretty quickly, and then everything just went silent. It's odd.

Anticipating WiFi fix in next release.

No access point name
There is normally a setting for access point names in the cellular network section of settings to tweek so that my sms/mms app of choice can auto select the correct APN but it is missing from the rom. Is it in a different place in settings?

Amaze file manager force closing when trying to cut and paste from internal storage to ext SD card.

GPS issues
I am running the gpe #1 from [ROM] Vanillipop 1.4 - 12/1/2014 [Vanilla Android Lollipop], on a verizon htc one m8. In itself an amazing system, however i am having issues with gps. Although its on, it doesnt ever connect even though it shows it is. All apps say low gps signal, and using a gps tracker app, it says no sattelites aquired. Any ideas???

I am stuck on a bootloop. From morning. None of the key working. Plzzzz help.
Coz i flashed this rom over viper rom without wiping. What to do now?
I am too scared.

[Q] Phone (G2X) Freezes after long calls

Hi,
I rooted my phone a couple of days back & upgraded to ICS using Hellfire v1.8 rom.
Since I was getting lags, I also got the flak0's lag fix.
I have started facing an issue the phone would freeze post a long call on the phone screen, I can't even get it to reboot by pressing 'lock+vol up' button. The only way is to remove the battery & put it back.
I saw a similar issue seen in this thread from partzman2:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28342782#post28342782
But unfortunately, I am unable to comment on the thread as I don't have enough posts in my name. I searched the forums for this issue, but couldn't find a solution.
Any help is appreciated.
My sincere thanks to dev folks
Just wanted to take a moment to thank the dev folks who put in a lot of work in creating these roms/mods - experience is so much better, I can't even begin to explain.
I have had g2x for more than 14 months now & I had been running stock froyo 1st & then GB (2.3.3) - the experience was so bad, that I used it only for making phone calls or occasional emails, as i couldn't even browse or do anything w/o hitting some problem or the other. Even phone calls used to crash at times.
After updating to ICS, I haven't stopped using the phone be it browsing, watching you tube videos, trying new apps, emails etc, with occasional phone calls .
Again, thanks a lot for so much hard work, its really appreciated.

Hi, welcome to XDA :fingers-crossed:
I have some sort of sad news for you. In general-- ICS on the G2X isn't really stable right now. A lot of rom's have problems with lag after a few weeks, graphical errors, rebooting, and phone calles (as you mentioned). I'm not sure exactly how to fix your problem, but I had it too. I couldn't find a suitable fix, so i went back to Cyangogenmod 7 (gingerbread)
The latest nightly (newest build uploaded on their server) is available here: http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?type=nightly&device=tenderloin
If you are NOT using the march 2012 baseband, flash "old_baseband.zip". I am looking for the file (not sure what thread it is in).
What baseband are you one?
Also, If you must try ics, i suggest Owain's build 77. It's one of the most stable I've found so far.
I'll update post soon.

Thanks for the info. Actually, I went through quite a bit of dev threads before deciding to go with ICS - I was quite curios about its features & was ready to take the risk.
Only thing is that owain's recent 79 build seemed to have quite a bit of issues from the posts, & hellfire seemed a bit old/stable, so went with that. I didn't consider using old owain's builds (which might be an overlook from my part).
Is there a way I can find what I might lose (& possibly gain), if I switch to owain's 77 build?
I am using Jul15, 2011 baseband & kernel is 2.6.32.59-CM9-faux123-050.
Is there a better baseband/kernel that I should try?
I switched the kernel to harsh kernel & I feel that the speed has improved, but "freezing on a call randomly" issue still exists. Also, it crashes & reboots once in a while but I still feel that its worth all the pain as now I am actually able to make use of the phone.
Blazing Angel, did you find the latest baseband which I can try using?
Another bug I found is that I cannot really configure the lock screen buttons/shortcuts - as in adding a an app to be able to accessed from the lock screen like we do for camera. I see the option of changing this in setting but it doesn't persist when I try to change it.
Anyone seeing this?

The latest baseband is march 2012. To update, you need to install Tmobile's V21Y update.
Follow this guide

Note: If you install this, and try to use a rom other than CM7 7.2.0, you need to flash owains New_baseband fix after flashing a rom from here

some of that i experienced my self , most of the times the camera and hdmi port is sacrificed in the g2x
Thanks for the info guys. Say my gps works/locks already (takes a bit of time though) with the hellfire ICS, is there anything I get by flashing this new baseband?
Does it or would it fix the random freezing on calls by any chance?
Basically, I read the instructions & it seems that I'd have to go back to stock, unroot & then re-root + reflash + restore my apps etc - seems like too much if I am not getting something out of it.
If it doesn't add much value, then I will consider doing it once another stable version of hellfire or owain's rom is released..
BTW, did anyone experience the lock screen config issue I posted in my earlier post - basically I can't add custom short cuts to the lock screen, there is an option to do this in the settings but they dont stick (I am on hellfire v1.8 right now)

[FAQ] FAQ and Troubleshooting Help for Albino's CM10.1/10.2 Android 4.2.2 and 4.3 ROM

[SIZE=+3]This thread has been created strictly for
Questions & Troubleshooting[/SIZE]
[SIZE=+2]Specific to
CyanogenMod 10.1 and 10.2 by Albinoman882[/SIZE]
​
[SIZE=+2]This thread has been created for people to share issues,
question and help
while using Albino's CM 10.1 and CM10.2 ROMs​[/SIZE]
CLICK HERE to see the Development Thread
PLEASE make sure to thank Albino for his dedication to this ROM
Please do not clutter the Development thread with non related development chatter
*​
Albino's developement thread is meant for development, meaning posts should be focused on bug reporting (with logcats) and assistance in improving the ROM. Development threads on XDA are NOT intended to be 24/7 tech support for everyone who has issues with the ROM.
But even the best Android modders out there need some help configuring or changing settings once in a while. So this thread will be a great place to ask all the tech support type questions you have that aren't really related to the further development of the ROM. This will then leave the development thread a little less cluttered with day to day support questions which will allow Albino to read through the development related posts faster so he can continue improving this great ROM.
XDA members who don't have the 10 posts required to post in development threads are more than welcome to ask their questions here as well! In this thread there is no such thing as a dumb question!
ALL QUESTIONS ARE WELCOME HERE!
(In the development thread, that rule does not apply. Many questions will be dumb there and will be answered accordingly.)
Before we get started I will say one very important thing that applies to ALL ROMs. Before you ask any questions about any ROM, read the first post of that ROM's development thread. I promise you that you will find many of your answers there.
And finally, if someone in this thread helps you, please take a second to click their 'thanks' button! Someone has taken the time to assist you, and clicking thanks will make them feel appreciated so they come back the next day and help someone else! You get 8 thanks a day, don't be stingy with them! (I'm not even talking about me. I'm not looking for 'thanks'. Save them for others who directly answer your questions. They will deserve it.)
To the experienced users who might be able to help your fellow XDA members asking basic questions in this thread, please take the time to do so. You were new to all of this once yourself. You needed some hand holding and basic coaching on simple stuff at one point. Pay that forward! And be patient with repeat questions, but don't hessitate to try and teach someone how to use the 'search' feature either.
How to best ask for help in this thread!
Give the following information when asking your questions. This will greatly help the community to find you an answer.
Are you S-On or S-Off? (If you don't know, you are S-On)
What firmware version are you using?
What is the build date of the Albino ROM you are having trouble with?
(Go to Settings>About Phone>Read the Build Date)
What have you already tried to fix the problem? (No point in telling you to try 12 things you've already done)
And I can't stress this last one enough...BE AS SPECIFIC AS POSSIBLE!!!
Please don't ask your question in this thread AND in the develoment thread. If you do you can expect to get flamed in the development thread.
Some of the most frequestly asked questions....
Where is the actual development thread that has all the download links?
Click here. It's all in the first post.
You can find the most up to date changelogs and download links in that first post as well.
If you just want to update from your current install of Albino's ROM, you can use the Goo Manager app that came with it. Check your app drawer.
How do I install this rom?
1: If you are coming from another ROM do a full wipe
1a: if this is just an update to THIS ROM BASE you can simply wipe cache and dalvik cache
2: Flash gapps (not needed if you are simply updating from an earlier version of this ROM)
3: Reboot
4: Enjoy CyanogenMod 10.1
I have a question about Bruce's CM10 Android 4.1.2 ROM. Is there an awesome thread like this one for that ROM?
There sure is, you lucky devil!
Dag nabbit! How come I can't scan networks? And why won't my MMS's work either?
Because you need to read this thread and do what it says, my friend!
I'm still getting the annoying blinking data bug on T Mobile USA? I thought Albino fixed that!
It does appear to be fixed. However the fix breaks data for Sensation users in Europe. You have to make an adjustment to the build.prop to fix it in the USA. See this post for instructions on what to do and enjoy reveling in the death of that bug.
I live in a different country and my WiFi doesn't work!
Read this about country codes in WiFi. Enjoy the working WiFi goodness that follows.
I cannot live without Sweep2Wake! How do I put that kind of voodoo magic on my phone?!
Simple. You check out this post and follow the instructions.
Suddenly ADB doesn't work. It can't see my phone. What the bleep has gone wrong?!
You need to update ADB to be compatible with Android 4.2.2. It's a security issue put into 4.2.2 by Google.
Dkephart has created this easy to follow guide explaining how to do that.
(If use that guide, give Dkephart thanks.)
What happened to the Developer Options in the settings menu?
To prevent every noob from messing with those settings and screwing up their phone, the CM team hid the settings so you can't change them by accident.
To view this menu go to the Settings>About Phone>and tap the build number 6 or 7 times.
The Developers Options will now be available in the main settings menu
Gasp! The advanced reboot menu that lets me reboot into recovery or bootloader is gone! Can I get it back?
It's still available. It's just no longer turned on by default.
Go to Settings>Developer Options (See questions above)>and click on Advanced Reboot
My phone is constantly rebooting when on this ROM. Am I doing something wrong?
Maybe, maybe not. Rebooting has been an issue since the beginning with this ROM. It's gotten MUCH MUCH better and continues to improve daily. It's a ROM in development still, so there is always going to be that chance for the ocacsional reboot. Don't freak out if it happens once in a while. But if it's a regular occurance, try the following...
1) Your battery may be loose. Put a peice of thick paper next to the battery to wedge it up against the connector pins. There is a great guide somewhere around here with pictures, but I can't find it. If anyone posts the link to it in this thread I'll add it up here.
2) Some Sensations can't handle being underclocked to 192 (but some can). 384 is the minimum stable clock speed for some Sensations. There's nothing you can do about it other than set your minimum processor speed to 384.
3) Try not to undervolt at 192 or 384 either. Too much undervolting can cause reboots.
I think my battery is draining too fast. What is normal?
Don't judge battery life by how long you go between charges. Judge it by how much combined 'screen on time' and 'phone call time'. Those are the two biggest battery drains in any smartphone. When the battery is down to 2-3% you should see about 2.5 hours of combined screen on and phone call time on a good stock battery or 4+ hours on an Anker. (I've never tried other batteries which may givedifferent results). That may takes you 6 hours since unplugging or it make take you 3 days.
If you're not a power user though and leave the phone in your pocket most of the time, you may see 2-3 days between charges, but less than the 2.5 to 4 hours of screen + talk time. The battery is being used when the phone is idle, so if you have 40-50 hours of idle time, it will cut down on the total screen on and talk time you'll have on a charge.
Of course depending on your set up and screen brightness and all that sort of of stuff your milage may vary. The numbers I'm giving here are examples. And they only apply to the Sensation running Albino's CM10.1 ROM. On another ROM, expect totally different battery results.
If you are seeing something like 1 hour of screen + talk time and the battery isn't even making it through a single day, something's wrong. If you've got the original battery, go buy an Anker one. They aren't expensive and the difference will shock and amaze you.
If your battery is new and you get 1 hour os screen + talk time, ask about it specifically. There's probably something specific wrong with your set up or a rouge app causing wakelocks.
Should I wipe my battery stats to help calibrate my battery?
No. It's a giant waste of time. Calibrating a battery isn't a real thing. It's a myth.
Wiping battery stats isn't without it's place though. I like to do it occasionally to clear my battery graph so I can easily see if changes I make mid battery cycle are being effective. Things like trying to squish a wakelock or something. It's nice to be able to start over on the battery stats sometimes to see if the change was effective. But this will NOT help your battery life.
I get a TON of wakelocks caused by Google Services Framework. What gives?
Google thinks that your phone is thier phone and that they can have their stuff run 24/7 for whatever reason. If you're willing to sacrifice Google Talk and Google Search (Googel Now) and don't mind if your signal bars always stay grey and never turn colors, follow this guide....
Click here for guide.
You can end the Google Services wakelocks, improve your battery, and if you don't use GTalk or Google Search now, you won't even know anything is missing.
I hear that AC!D Mod is awesome. Can I use it on this ROM?
Yup. Click here to find out how. Thanks to Shawa2 for the write up!
I still see graphical glitches. And my bar code scanner doesn't work. What gives with that?
Disable H/W overlays in the developer settings. Don't know where to find developer settings? Look at the 5th question in this thread.
Sweet mother of god! My wifi isn't working! Don't make me rely on mobile data speeds! I need downloads NOW!!!
This is a common issue for people who are S-ON and have flashed the rom improperly? Use 4EXT Recovery to flash your ROM, enable smartflash and reflash the ROM. It should fix the problem.
Man this ROM is awesome! Can I donate to Albino somehow?
Yup! He's kind of shy about it and certainly isn't asking for it nor does he expect it. But he certainly deserves it.
Here's his note about the matter from the development thread...
I really didn't want to do this but people keep asking so here is a donation link if you want to buy me a coffee or pack of smokes (I go through a lot sitting on the PC messing around lol) go ahead. But not required or expected by any means

Just post the link to this thread when they ask a basic question in the development thread. The questions that are dumb questions in the dev thread are more than welcome here.
I also would hope that people who take the time to answer those questions in this thread do so with patience and understanding. Remember, we were all new to this ourselves at one point. We ALL needed a little hand holding in the beginning. There's nothing wrong with asking questions! (As long as it's in this thread nad not a dev thread)
That being said...to all the experienced users please check this thread out regularly and look for people you might be able to help out. XDA is a beter forum when everyone is trying to help each other.

Hi,
Subscribed.
wifi can't connect
Deal All,
I'm just installed this amazing rom but I'm finding a seriuis issue:
wifi can detect all the networks around but can't connect to them. Just saying "Saved" or "Connecting" for a few seconds.
I tried fixing it with all the tricks I found in the forums (wipe of all partitions, boot without SIM, wifix, getril, boot.img flash, static IP) but no way to make it work. Tested both the 201230306 20130307 versions.
In the past I had the same issue installing android1234567's kernel on CM9 Opensensation. I solved using tamcore's kernel. This time I'm just using the kernel packed in the rom.
Maybe different hardware? Mine is European Sensation, not 4G.
Thanks for your support.

Are you S-On or Off?
What firmware version? Have you tried changing firmware?
It's really strange that you can see the networks and not connect to them. Obviously the Wifi radio is working. But you're having authentication issues. This is not a super common problem with this ROM. That leads me to believe that your set up is messed up somehow. And that's a good thing because it probably means it's fixable.
If all else fails I would bet this can be fixed by doing a full RUU back to stock and starting over. Re-root and s-off and flash Albino's ROM fresh. But let's not jump to those drastic measures just yet...
I'm S-off and using the 3.33 firmware (from the mike1986 Partitions Info | [11.07.2012])
Still not tried to flash 3.32 version.

Oh wait....sorry it just hit me. I've never made this settings change myself so it didn't cocur to me right away.
You need to set the Wifi settings to the Europe region code. Europe uses different Wifi frequency bands than the US does, so your phone is trying the wrong frequencies to connect.
Go to your Wifi settings in main menu. Click the menu button (the one beneath the screen, second from the left), then click ADVANCED, and 5th row from teh top you should see Wi-Fi Region Code. Click that and switch it to whatever country you are in. I think Europe is listed as 1 county if you're actually in Europe.
Let us know if this helped!
Thanks for the thread, that's the thread I've been looking for before I had 10 posts.
My question is not very ROM related, I could not find any thread here or using google talking about this, but I saw a post today in the ROM thread (and I cannot find it right now) so I'll give it a try.
Background of the question:
Someone asked if it is using space to let appollo or another google app since it is on the system partition. Another answered that's ok and he has a custom partitioning of the System / Data, as the ROM is using so little space.
My question now: I am S-OFF, I know that it might be possible to flash / modify the MTD (?) paritioning / system / cache / data to have more space for apps for example.
I have been doing this on my HTC Desire using the alpharev custom HBOOT from this page (http://alpharev.nl/)
Has anyone here modified his partition system ? What would you recommand as partition sizes if running the ROM from Albinoman ? How would you proceed ?
Any experienced problem ?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the thread, that's the thread I've been looking for before I had 10 posts.
My question is not very ROM related, I could not find any thread here or using google talking about this, but I saw a post today in the ROM thread (and I cannot find it right now) so I'll give it a try.

Unless you have REALLY specific needs to do this, I wouldn't mess with it. It's very easy to brick your phone when partitioning the entire internal memory. If you make it unreable somehow it coudl be very difficult to recover it.
And there probably isn't a huge need to do so. The internal storage has 1GB of memory. That should give you more than enough room for a couple hundred apps and all of their data. Keep in mind that the apps using large amounts of data space will all use the SD card anyway. So they take up even less room internally. And most apps are only like 0-5MB anyway.
The system partition is about 3GB so there is deffinately extra space that you could be using there. But you could expand the user partition to maybe 3GB. Is that extra 2GB really worth it? Especially when you can just go buy a 64GB SD card for like $40? Or a 32GD SD card for like $20? Then you'll have more storage than you would ever needon a smartphone with 0 risk of bricking the device.
However, I'm not your father and can't tell you what to do.
So if you still want to try it...start your research here.
http://android.stackexchange.com/qu...ng-htc-sensation-4gb-internal-memory-for-data
Then research some more. And then some more after that. Make sure you REALLY know what you're doing.
I see your point, I don't have 4 Gb internal or system. Adding both I can count 2 Gb.
I still have 443 o on system and 564 on Internal so I guess I'll be safe for a looooong time.
HTC Desire had such low memory it was a must to do so, we also had A2SD and so on. I also did a ext3 partition on the SD card of my sensation and did not see any improvement, so I went back today to full FAT32. I evolve just slowly from desire world / thinking into sensation but still, I'm learning
I guess the juice is not worth the squeeze in this case. Thanks for the heads up.
Re: [FAQ] FAQ and Troubleshooting Help for Albino's CM10.1 Android 4.2.2 ROM
First of all, thank you Skipjacks for this thread! You have made a n00b feel very welcome!
My question is regarding Acid Audio with this rom... I have come from Frankinstine's 4.1.2 AOKP build and the sound really blew away! I have a pair of beats headphones and I don't feel it's as loud on this rom and even gets tinny at high volumes.
Is it a complicated process to flash? Do I need to remove existing audio setup (DSP)? Do I re flash acid after any updates to this rom? Where be the links I need?
Thanks in advance!

Sweep2Wake : How to enable it
Not a question but something I just found out and want to share with other noobs on this ROM.
I already heard about sweep2wake, did not know what it was. I just flashed the 7 mar build so I had to redo my /system/etc/init.d/99kernel adjustments. I found out that the sweep2wake is to be enabled here and not in any other settings or apps !
Why would you want to activate it ? Well IMHO and coming from HTC desire, we had trackball wake, which was very useful. On this ROM you either have Power Button or Volume Rocker wake, which I did not like. Sweep2Wake enables you to wake your device by swiping from the HOME button to the Search button. Pretty cool for me.
How to do it ?
Use ES File Explorer or any other file manager allowing you to go up to the root.
Go to /system/ etc/ init.d
Edit the 99kernel file with some txt editor (You need to enable root access to save the file !)
Find the line # Enable Sweep2Wake
Replace 0 by 1 or 2 if you want backlight or not.
Reboot
Let your screen go to sleep
Slide your finger over the buttons (starting from home)
Smile / Say "Sweeeeeet"
Thank Beri

I don't know if it works or not as I've never tried it. But here is the process to try it and find out.
Make a full nandroid backup of your current set up so you can revert if this screws things up. I cannot stress this enough.
Freeze DSP manager using something like System Tuner. Don't uninstall it so you can go right back to it if this fails.
Reboot into recovery and flash the Acid mod.zip. You are on your own to find the zip file.
Reboot and see what happens. If its all messed up simply reboot into recovery and restore you nandroid backup and all will back like it was 10 minutes prior.
Whatever happens, report the results back here so others can learn from them

Thanks for this thread SkipJacks
After doing a clean wipe you know even after flashing the newest gapps i noticed that my phone still remembers my wifi password and a bunch of settings that i had in the previous rom. I usually just do a clean data wipe and dont mess with the other stuff like wipe dalick cache and things of that nature. almost like it didnt fully wipe everything. My question is, is there another way to erase the data that saves my wifi password and system settings?
using 4ext btw
Two things which hasn't been for the last two builds.
1) If I try to enable video-recording with the front-facing camera (the camera app crashes with the message "Error cannot open gallary").
2) In previous builds I was able to do a Network scan (by that I mean I could get a list of available Network operators).
But now if I attempt to do this I get the error "Error while scanning for network".
Any idears on howto solve these errors?

.android_secure
OK, I've got one that's been bugging me. I have a LOT of apps installed and if I have moved a number of the larger ones to the SD Card (to free up /data), once I get to greater than 1GB in android_secure, my phone fails to boot completely and just locks up. It's not the SD Card (32GB Class 10) that has errors (scanned with both Windows and 4Ext), just seems to be too much for the OS to handle.
I'm still running ShiftHackedA05P 2.8 (CM 2.7.3) from days gone by. Suggestions welcome. Thanks.
Edit: And I use Autostarts (Advanced mode) to turn off receivers for apps that I don't want to load, and LBE to disable permissions.
You might try using a Rom that has ext4 support since it supports larger file sizes.

Thank you for the reply, expert one
The folder has ~87 files of sizes 3MB to 40MB, which causes the lockup after booting at random times (sometimes it makes it further and ultimately boots, after MANY battery pulls). Once the folder is pared down to a lesser total size, the phone boots more rapidly and doesn't lock up; seems to be a linear relationship between how many files and the total time to boot until the CPU usage drops.
It might also be that most apps are moving away from app to sd since it isn't used as much anymore.

New issue, perhaps?, I am noticing that when LTE/CDMA mode my connection is showing as LTE only where it used to use ehrpd for transport and thereby still keeping 3g radio enabled. Normally no big deal but at times I am unable to send/receive texts or make/receive phone calls. Has Verizon stopped using this middle transport for LTE? I am unsure why I am always showing LTE only and if this is causing a problem. Switching to CDMA (auto prl) is the only remedy that I have found. Any thoughts?

Not really a problem but I noticed a thread that mentioned A LOT of older devices getting a port of KitKat...any chance that could happen with this old relic? Other HTC phone with some sort of working KitKat are: Sensation, Desire HD, Vivid, Raider, Evo, Amaze and Incredible S...or at least that is what this site claims.
Oh, sorry, I'm new here so I can't post the link.
Santod was working on a KK ROM but since he has newer devices as many of us old bolt users do he puts it on the back burner because the demand for it just isn't there anymore. Be patient and maybe eventually you will see one. Or you won't....

I just saw where Droid Incredible 2 has a fully functioning CM 10.1 rom. Just wondering if that could be possible for us since DINC 2 has same processor, same resolution, same manufacturer, same everything except 4G. I'd love to have CM10.1 if it meant sacrificing 4G (or even all data).
I'm new to all this, but if you think a port is possible or maybe some other way to get this on our device I will give it 100% effort.
If it can't be done then crush my dreams now and I will somehow learn to live without my TB.
Thanks.
Porting the dinc2 ROM breaks data for the bolt since the bolt has an svdo radio setup. I have ported from it before and I either had calling with no data or just data. I'm not saying it couldn't be done but it is out of my area of expertise. Go to infectedrom. com and there is a cm10.2 build made by Santod that has working WiFi. Since data doesn't seem to be an issue for you.

New to xda so can't post in the original thread, but I need info on the thunderbolt tool. I have used it before with great results, now trying to root my other TB and old vesion won't update and new download won't unzip (reads no files when extracting).
if anyone has any ideas i could use the help. I want to upgrade my other TB to the ICS rom that santod posted but i am dependent on its wifi tether and want to have a backup device if any problems a cure (doubtful, as the instructions seem strait forward).

It could be closed for any number of reasons. Cjen isn't a developer by any stretch of imagination. He's the same guy that kanged CM, and liquidsmooth code in the past in roms he called "liquidsmooth remastered", etc. He basically kangs roms, adds and removes apps, then rereleases them himself as though he built them, all without providing the source that would show no commits made by him. The irony is, liquidsmooth 3.2, CM7.2, And thundershed actually worked perfectly for the most part, his so called rom doesn't... If you're interested in gingerbread AOSP roms for the bolt, i'd stick with thundershed and liquidsmooth. At least workshed's and team liquid are real developers and their roms worked...

Hello, I would really like to thank you for sharing this, I've been loving android for a while now, enjoying my S3 CyanogenMod for a few years, my rooted Nexus10 stock ROM and for a few months now really enjoying my OnePlus One. Last weeks I've been waiting for lollipop, really looking forward to it, last weeks I've been flashing wildly, switched and tried all these different ROMs, like ParanoidAndroid, AOKP, Slim, PACMAN ROM, Carbon, and more, it has been a time of learning, failing, and learning some more, and finally some Lollipop arrived! It's been working like a charm on my Oneplus, looking forward to coming weeks fiddling around with it. Again, thank you very much, and also everybody else at XDA, reading and learning, first time posting. I could not have done all this without this great community, I learned from all the posts, reactions, and off course, my own failures and attempts. Love out to the Android development world! Flash away!!! If this is the wrong place to say thank you all, excuse me, but still: Thanks!
Dirty Flashed
I flashed over top of 11/12 and works perfect. One 11/12 I had an issue with the home screen redrawing once I close out of an app, that's now gone one the 11/13 build, plus BT and NFC seem to be working, though I don't ever use those features, so it wasn't a big deal to me. I love the Lollipop look and animations and battery has been pretty good for me. The only thing I miss is Double tap to wake, so once that gets figured out I'll be a happy man.

Thanks! So far it works smoothly.
Issue with CM12
Hello! Thank you very much for your work and your builds.
One of the main issues I came up with is that when calling anyone, I was able to hear the recipient but he was not able to hear from me. Perhaps it could be some microphone issue and, hopefully, easy to fix.
Anyway keep up the good work. Many people are thanking it so much
Best,

Google drive
Is it just me or the google drive app crashing a known bug? On the latest as per posted by Bpear. The google drive app keeps crashing upon launching.
Im on the rom and gapp as per posted but im using the latest AK kernel for CM12 and latest SU Beta on it.
Google search app keeps crashing on me
How do I enable guest users on the new build ?

BeanStalk Rom calls
The rom works perfectly The only thing that i am having a problem with is calls i know that a known bugs was ending the call but that is not the problem I can not figure out how to answer a call could you give me an idea of how to fix this issue
Problem with ROM
I just installed your ROM last night and absolutely love it! However, I think I may have found an issue. I've had a few people call me this morning and nothing comes up. It rings as if I'm getting an incoming call, but there's nothing on the screen for me to answer it. It just keeps ringing until I reboot the phone. Afterwards, I went to my incoming calls and there wasn't anything there either. Outgoing calls work perfectly fine though. Is there a bug, or just something I did wrong?
no SIM card
Mine reads No Sim card on the lock screen and also does not like to hang up on or answer phone calls. Otherwise this runs like butter.
i am still having trouble with receiving phone calls my phone will do a soft chirping noise when a call is coming through but never notifies me who is calling and after the call is ended by the other user the chirping continues until i reboot my phone. I have applied the newest update as well and still no fix please help if you know how to fix this anyone
My phone keeps having a subtle ring. It only turns off when I restart and then starts after awhile again. Is this happening to anyone else?

So mine stopped some how. I think it was after I installed whatever the equalizer thing. Its in the beanstalk options in the settings app.
I'm not a noob to ROMs or flashing.. but im not too advanced and just more of a lurker. been flashing roms since the galaxy s. I am however getting horrible battery life and performance stuttering on the newest build of this super sweet ROM. everything works, but the lag is bad compared to the previous build which was butter smooth, just had the incoming call issue. I tried all the performance profiles and it only seemed to worsen the drain. any suggestions?
1/16 build flashed fresh today, ran battery down in 4 hours. Going to revert back to CM11, although BS ROM had rock solid radios
