**NO LONGER SUPPORTED** Closed BETA Shogun ATT rom "Death"

So i have recently been in the kitchen.... I have cooked a rom that is like wm6.1 on crack, its crazy and makes me feel like i have a phone again... but i am looking for a few good people for beta testers!
before saying you will test:
this is built off the newest ATT rom i striped.
i dont know which all radios work with it since i am locked to the radio from hell.
must be hardspl'd.
and must NOT BE A MORON!
So, are you willing to test the Shogunmark ROM of death on crack?
OH and im specifically looking for ATT people... other will work, but you will need to edit your connections
****THE BETA IS NOW OPEN TO THE PEOPLE WHO RECIEVED THE PM'S****
Please click here for the file!
Report any and all issues in this thread
all other threads will be removed to prevent clutter!
Also in this rom is an app called LiveCAM, there is currently a beta thread for it here. If you have unlimited data i would urge everyone to give it shot, it enables you to stream live video from your cell to the web or to a pc app! Can also give you a moving map and video.. fun little app!

check the first post testers... its up!

reserved---------

I am an At&t user. I will test your rom as long as there isn't a radio attached. I'll download now and test tomorrow night. Please respond to confirm there is no radio attached thank you.

maybe i can, just join in.

Initial thoughts.... The reaper's kinda creepy...
Testing w/ radio 1.65.20.29. Very snappy. No issues w/ camera or video camera. Wifi works. BT works. No problems w/ back-lighting. Will test more tomorrow during real world work day.

what is the password to extract the rar file?
password please, thank you sir.
edit: durr i didn't receive a pm.

alright so i'm up and running, testing using 1.65.14.06, definately fast enough for my liking. i like the setup on programs, not cluttered at all ver neat and organized into folders. UC ran without a hitch and for that i'm glad, few roms have said "UC compatible" but then i find that my UC fails at some random point. LOVE the reaper, but did get rid of him for my "xp" startup due to UC. will definately test for the next few days on my current radio and the 1.65.20.29

some benchmarks

PS
i noticed that customer feedback and the windows update was not removed

Does not work with Radio 1.64.08.21 also when I tried livecam when I logged in and it shows the options and information the program closes by itself, one more thing that I notice it's that my signal bars shows 3G but on the home bar shows only AT&T but not 3G AT&T

The graphics test looks good.

i'm willing to test your beta rom (at&t user in Puerto RIco) if you could pm the password i will be glad to test it

Yes. But file system index looks a bit low compare to WM6.0 rom (~175-180). Is that normal?
Can you pm me the password as well? thanks.

If you wan anyone else, I would love to beta test your ROM. I still have one of your wizard ROMs on my 8125!
I am with AT&T (old Bellsouth DCS area) in South Carolina. I am currently HardSPLed and Security Unlocked, running the ATT ROM from yesterday (with it's radio, but not stuck). I was thinking of cooking my own ROM soon, but with you working one, I may not have to! I always loved your Wizard releases.
I was actually going to flash another ROM this morning, but will wait until I hear back before trying anything else. I am very optimistic about a shogun ROM!

If you need someone else to test, I would love to take a look

an update might come soon, i was just sent new livecame files this morning...
I never changed that entry, myself personally, i knew if i was in 3g or not.. but i might add a different app that will you put whatever you want there instead

maybe i will consider you guys for round 2, right now let me get the initial bugs ironed out!

OK, thanx. Keep me in mind!

Argh!!! Has the password changed at all? I'm using the one in the PM and its not letting me get at it...

Blah Blah??? Seriously????
I'm going through with the update regardless
EDIT: Update unsuccessful. Tried manually checking for updates and it said I am up to date with 2638. Guess they were just testing the deployment.

I did the same thing as you but manually, and I got the same thing! I think the guys at viewsonic was testing the update app and what not to see if it would pick up information so that it will either automatically download this new update or manually allow the user to update it. I like there test msg information "Blah Blah". Now when I check it says you have updated software, guess at midnight we will see!!!!

At least it's being tested. I half expect them to delay this again.

Haha, that's awesome. From a dev standpoint, I understand where those "blah blah" sort of test messages come from.. Now, the fact that they tested it live in production with that message..

they're testing the distribution of the update. thats a good sign.
has anyone given them a call yet today?

And Pocketgear hasn't updated their website to reflect Viewsonic as a selectable device.

I'm trying to hold out from calling them for at least a few hours --
I think they have my phone number listed on their wall.... "don't answer if this guy calls!"

At least one person here got svn #13 on Thursday night. That tells me that they have no UAT environment, they test live in production as you mentioned.

I haven't got anything yet. I'm connected to wifi at startup and this is what it says:
Current Version: Flextronics/harmony/harmony/:2.2/FRF91/hudson-20101023-135552-TnT_SVN_2638:user/testkeys
I have not modified it yet.
5 minutes after I posted this, I clicked on the Tap UI and it started to update for about a minute but then got an error saying network unavailable even though I was connected. Could it be their network it was referring too?

Update
I just picked my g tab up this past weekend. It is still stock as I heard there was an update coming and wanted to wait to see what it would be.
I powered the device on today and the first time it connected via the tap download app. It looked as if it was preparing to download then my wife would cut out and there would be an error saying it attempted the max 3 times. I reset the device and wife and tried again, this time said it was up to date.
Called G tab support and they had me do a factory reset (no biggie, nothing saved yet) and then had me switch the wifi sleep to never and display timeout to never. Tried again and got same error. They said this has been happening and that it may take some time today for it to go through correctly. Just an update

Getting the same max try error as the poster above. If someone gets it, (pretty) please post the update.zip file (assuming that's what it is) that you get.

If it's anything like the last update, I don't think there will be an update.zip to get. You just get a notice that it's available, click on download, install it, and reboot.
I'm not getting any feedback. I click on Tap UI update and it just tells me it's up to date.

Yeah, but it has to download something, so we're wondering what the actual process is.
My guess is that it pushes down an update.zip, does a checksum at the end to ensure its not corrupt, then reboots you into recovery to run it (and probably delete it at the end). Again, just a guess.

I agree. I just don't recall finding anything on mine during the last update. Over course, I was in the process of a couple different mods after, since it didn't really fix anything for me, and I could have easily overlooked it. I'll pay more attention this time for sure.

sidebar: I'm sure at some point the Pocketgear store will require some sort of registration. So I went ahead and registered an account so that much was already setup when I do finally get the update. Viewsonic is still not listed as a supported device though.

Okay I spoke to CS (not too crappy relatively speaking) and they were not helpful. The CS rep said they do not plan on posting any file for manual updates. He suggested I just keep trying (sigh). I asked him to please post the file, he said there was discussion with devs re this issue.
I asked him about a changelog and he said there would be: a new new UI update program (yeah), some new apps like facebook and kindle, fixes to weather/news and time (real yeah!), app program for "Handango" (interesting change there), and perhaps some other tidbits. I asked him to please post that somewhere so I could refer back to it. He said he would look into it.

allegedly it is going out and some units have already gotten it - at least as per CS. As to how the TnT updater decides on which devices need it, I don't know.

If anyone actually gets this update, please advise the group. So far I've seen zip -- nada -- nothing.
EDIT: I know CS is probably watching this thread - you'll be getting a call at 5PM ET if my device is not updated, and this time I'm not going to be a happy customer. Please get these TnT developers to push this out already, we've been waiting since Friday.

I didn't bring the G to work. I'll probably flash back to stock tonight and see if I can get the update and see how big of an improvement it makes. I'm still deciding if I'm going to keep this or take it back...

Just fired my gtablet up about 1pm Central time. No update yet. I am 100% stock.

Maybe the delay was because they were patching up the issues many were having with the leaked version. Lets hope so anyway.

Ill post what my phone says when its finished
compare to what`s stock and to the info in thye post above

+1 I also heard (rumor) that they also pulled it because of the LTE/eHRPD issues and now that they've supposedly fixed them they're comfortable pushing this RUU back out. Of course it's all speculation unless they actually make a statement.

If they pulled it to make changes to the radio it would not be released with the same version number, which this one appears to be. Also, there is no way a new radio version would make it through VZW's QC group that quickly.

Looks like I'm already have the update according to the baseband and other stuff a few posts back??

Angry English,
Pull the update.zip from /cache before you apply it.
Then upload it so we can rip it apart. You can also run a logcat and just get the link for us.

They were making changes to the software that the cell sites (BSSs) use. The new radio firmware for the phone wasn't happy with some BSSs. That's why some people had reboots, and others were fine - it depended on the local BSS (probably related to who made it - Nortel, Motorola, Lucent, etc.). The new radio worked fine for me at home, but when I traveled to another city, I had frequent reboots.
That's why they disabled eHRPD for a while - until they could get all the problem sites updated with newer software. eHRPD is back on now, and they're restarting the phone radio rollout.
The reboot problem was caused by software in the cell sites, not the phone.

Makes sense mike...thanks. I figured it had to be site issues when I had problems at home but not at work hitting LTE after the outage (where before I could hit LTE at both with no problems.) The site at work would affect way more customers than the site near my home.

Shouldn't apply update if rooted.

sweet.
i hope it doesn't kill my phone!

No update yet for me. That released leak is scarry. I really don't want to use anything other than.. 7cdma and 6lte radio combo. I'll wait until others report on this new ota before hbooting again.

If you're rooted, don't apply the update.
Or do we not have a choice if we are on stock root? Will it just force itself?

ColorOS13 PSA --- Update << This PSA only is relevant for UK users - OP modified

** Removed the initial message as that has been pulled by Oppo **
So i'm leaving the main updates here but the bottom line is this thread now only really applies to the UK region.
Update: 15:00 BST
People working with the tech team to establish what's wrong with os13. They don't believe that there's any risk to your phones or data.

Update 15:18 BST
I've been told that there's some incompatibility issues with the OS which could cause some apps to stop working. They believe at the moment that reinstalling the app will workaround the issue for now
They'll release an updated OS as soon as they can
Update 0926 BST (16/09/22)
Just spoken to the Oppo social rep on messenger and they've informed me that this message really only applies to UK customers.
The team have identified a few minor issues which can cause compatibility issues with some app which they wish to address. In response to this they have withdrawn the update from their side for UK region customers.
Other global customers can proceed with the update as they wish.

Yeah not encountered anything yet all the little annoyances from the beta seem fixed.
Though I still need to do a full wipe on my phone because of going up a major version of Android from 12 to Beta and Beta to Stable

Doesn't sound too critical a problem but hang fire if you can is the advice.

Please check the OP -- updated as i learned more

Ah ok nothing major then thankfully.
I'll be Factory Resetting so it should negate this issue anyways as I always manually re-install apps a fresh rather than bring data with them

If I see any issues, I will either factory reset or just try uninstalling and reinstalling the apps that crash!

Hello, I don't know if the same thing happens to someone else, but in the official version the button to activate the automatic brightness has disappeared, in the Beta it was there and now it isn't. The curious thing is that in Android 12 it wasn't there either, it appeared when installing the beta version of android 13.

I don't have the automatic brightness button either.

I guess it's incompatibility with some UK carrier apps or configs then.

I guess this is why I downloaded the 2.6gb update and then it disappeared into the ether when it asked me to install.

The Photos app has been crashing since the 13 update. I've been trying to delete a couple of photos and the app crashes each time, I can't reinstall it, as it's part of the OS. This is actually a major issue for me, it's one of my most-used apps. It might have been nice to get a heads-up not to install the update. Shutting down and restarting do not help.

Only got the device yesterday and upgraded to android 13 factory reset and transferred over. Just checked and can confirm no issues deleting from default gallery here.
I know it's a pita but maybe a reset and restore given the Android upgrade.

I've just stumbled on a fix - I'd tried a forced stop of the gallery app and that did nothing, so I thought I'd try deleting the pix with Google Photos. Same issue, repeatedly crashed. So I tried a forced stop on that app and bingo - THAT worked. Phew. Photos finally deleted and the default app is working normally.
Thanks for your reply.

Question March 6 what up hurry up

Let's go March 6 and hopefully everything goes smoothly if not I will ask for help lol

does anyone know if there's anything particularly exciting reported to come with this update?
I know they've been working on a fix for scrolling issues -- I believe the fix has already been included in previous releases, but I may be wrong and it may be still upcoming -- and I know my bluetooth issue connecting to car radio that was broken with the Jan update had been fixed with Febs... but is there anything else reported?

I find it weird that android doesn't really get good feature updates anymore... Just the annual overhaul.
There's no x.1 with cool new features and .x3 after 6 months with a new look and feel etc ... iOS still gets that but it seems to be gone with Android and it just seems to be security updates and bug fixes monthly until the next big version.
That said, OEMs with their skins and mods seem to add x.x updates themselves on their own hardware that runs android.

Has Android ever gotten major additional features between version updates? There have been some exceptions but it's pretty much always been a gradual stability improvement of the features on the monthly updates then new features added on the new letter update. Rinse and repeat.
I do find it amusing that Samsung have released this month earlier than Google. Back when I started using Samsung phones it would invariably be months before Samsung would catch up.

Security updates in a timely mannor are good, but as long as it is stable, that's what counts for me.

That's boring. So this won't include the list of big fixes, right? That'll be somewhere else? I'm hoping the change log with all the "boring" stuff includes lots of bug fixes. I don't personally have any other than every once in awhile a line flash across the width of the screen about ⅓ of the way down. Good indicated other screen and GPU issues were going to be fixed, and I'm hoping my issue is something covered in that umbrella. Other than that and missing the November update battery life I love this phone.

I don't see any real difference tbh

@EtherealRemnant -- I know you had been interested in dual esim from before and had been frustrated that it hadn't been truly working for P7P up til now...would you still be interested in it or have you gotten it working?
I remember reading an article a couple weeks back talking about how it will be coming (probably feature drop), so it's nice to confirm that it's here now...
