Guest freebee Posted August 22, 2011 Report Share Posted August 22, 2011 One problem found. When active Wifi Tethering, i'm not getting the IP in DHCP. In the same screen, if connect with a wifi router, he give me the IP. Can someone test that ?. System: OS X 10.6.8 4pda #166 Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree (4pda 2.3.5 #167) gets my vote of best ROM for Racer so far thanks to "Go Keyboard" app which, amazingly corrects the awful keyboard calibration of #167 to a tolerable level. "Smart Keyboard pro" disappointed and didn't have that magic "Go" has to correct the ghost key mistakes. I encountered problems installing "Google Market". One of the links on this thread installs Google+ & no market. G+ says "you need an invitation and that it's exceeded it's capacity" then logs out, no market is installed. I also can't get Google+ off the phone now even with "Root Uninstaller"? So I found this Market 2.2.11 apk installed it and Market now works great. The best improvement by far is the battery life. Installed "Advanced Task Killer" app set to aggressive. Get a full day of moderate use out and about with bright screen enabled, using data hungry applications: FB, email, gps etc. and listening to my mp3 music :) The touch response is great as is the screen scroll and dragging of apps is smooth too. It's all good. Now how do I get the dust out from below the screen lol. If they fix the keyboard calibration for this ROM it will be near perfect IMHO. Well done where praise is due.

Totttaly agree here. It's near-perfect except that I still have problems with the accelerometer lag after time, witch brakes any game depending on it :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest andy787786 Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 Check Post #35 for market. If you want full version of Market see the above Post as posted by RacerBoy. Tnx mate! I installed Market from post# 35. This is newer version and am liking it too. The other gapps link does not have Market. I upgraded from TigTex 2.3.4. Been 3 days now I'm on 2.3.5 CM7 #167N. I can clearly feel the difference. Menu scrolling is way better and key response & battery life is improved. Seems fine for me. The only minor issue is with built-in Wifi Tethering. Not sure if its only me. But not a major issue. I use Barnacle more. Overall I'm quite satisfied. Tnx to all those who contributed in porting this ROM to Racer.

Guest Khan Miro Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 I know I'm waiting for more than five minutes now after new flash, nothing happens. I'm using clockwork 3.2.0.0 This happens sometimes. You can just reflash the ROM and try if that works for ya. I had that problem also, it appears after some installs, don't know why. If reflashing (just installing the ROM over again) doesn't help for you, try deleting the dalvic cache and the cache also and then try again.

I'm using clockwork 3.2.0.0 i would update clockwork recovery HERE latest version, get in to clockwork recovery and mount usb, copy new recovery to sdcard, choose zip to install, install it, reboot into recovery, follow tigtex instructions again but this time delete dalvik cache aswell before installing new rom which can be found on the advanced menu......should work fine Edited August 23, 2011 by Racerboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Racerboy Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 (edited) I did everything you told me Racerboy, but iy's still the same. Only green droid after flashing ok, did you make any backups before attempting this? assuming you have 4.0.1.5 recovery installed now and also the rom installed correctly? turn off phone completely, then boot into recovery (hold vol- and press power button) and retry the following to install rom 1.Select "wipe data/factory reset" 2.Go to submenu "mounts and storage" 3.Choose "format /boot" "format /data" "format /cache" "format /system" "format /sd-ext" - confirm every action 4.Return to 1st menu and goto Advanced and delete Dalvik cache 5.Return to 1st menu and choose "instal zip from sdcard" - "choose zip" your rom 6.After installing, do "reboot system now" try 2 times if fails again, also re-download rom it may be corrupt.......... then again clockwork recovery would not have installed it at all and error message saying not installed......
