Guest AussieExpat Posted April 29, 2013 Report Posted April 29, 2013 (edited) Personally I wouldn't use OTA updates at all, they cause bugs and they cause false reports to be sent in like 'Google search is crashing' etc. If we all did full wipes, the world would be a better place :lol: you, of all people, kyan should know that that is NOT a false report -- nor was it caused by an OTA upgrade -- I was speaking of my own experience of upgrading (trying to) from CM10.1 R2 to R3 and as I have explained it -- how did I NOT do (or try to) a full wipe????? -- I was following the procedure written on the install page for the Electra ROM, and let's see who that was written by ....

Guest moochermick Posted April 29, 2013 Report Posted April 29, 2013 I gave in and did full wipes and the call problem was solved however something I installed made system ui constantly stop. Back to r3 for now will try again when I've got more time.
Guest Pyntux Posted April 29, 2013 Report Posted April 29, 2013 Why not give atry to alpha5, Dazzo give a link.... :)
Guest Costy88031 Posted April 29, 2013 Report Posted April 29, 2013 Wich governor do you recommend to use? I selected performance but I see that frecquency stay just on Max and I think that drain battery faster
Guest fraska Posted April 29, 2013 Report Posted April 29, 2013 I've got a lot of random reboots with R4
Guest Pyntux Posted April 29, 2013 Report Posted April 29, 2013 Wich governor do you recommend to use? I selected performance but I see that frecquency stay just on Max and I think that drain battery faster That performance governor does... :) Use ondemand... :)
Guest AussieExpat Posted April 29, 2013 Report Posted April 29, 2013 (edited) Problems with Google Voice I'm having the same problem I ALWAYS had with R3 -- Google Voice Search crashes as soon as I try to run it -- looking at MY system/app I see there's a voicesearchstub.apk file of 4.3kb there -- is that normal? I had some difficulties with an unreliable wifi connection and a number of apps didn't download correctly -- but not sure which ISSUE SUCCESSFULLY RESOLVED = Many thanks to Pyntux!!! +1 for that Edited April 29, 2013 by AussieExpat
Guest AussieExpat Posted April 29, 2013 Report Posted April 29, 2013 Did you update google search? No, I hadn't updated Google Search, but I have now, and it IS working again!!!! Thanks, very much!!
Guest AussieExpat Posted April 29, 2013 Report Posted April 29, 2013 NOT THE ROM -- But curious? It's been a couple of weeks since I last "played" with this ROM, but I can't remember the lockscreen from last time. Anyone know where the question mark in the "middle" of the screen come from in the image below? (don't worry about the scribble on the right side -- just me doing a, maybe poor, job of covering up my name)
Guest carrthee89 Posted April 29, 2013 Report Posted April 29, 2013 Goto Settings_lockscreen_weather panel.. And disable weather option
Guest AussieExpat Posted April 29, 2013 Report Posted April 29, 2013 Goto Settings_lockscreen_weather panel.. And disable weather option Many thanks!!
Guest AussieExpat Posted April 29, 2013 Report Posted April 29, 2013 More great work, Daz. Thank you very much!! :D :D
Guest intensedarkness Posted April 29, 2013 Report Posted April 29, 2013 Thanks for the release. Even though it seems nobody uses their Androids for making phone calls anymore, has anyone tested to see if R4 can make voice calls using wired handsfree kits? Or successfully making Viber calls where both parties can hear one another?
Guest bilakos10 Posted April 29, 2013 Report Posted April 29, 2013 So, whats the battery life in R4? Any reports?
Guest TangerineTractor Posted April 29, 2013 Report Posted April 29, 2013 Was fine in my testing. Everything worked fine, Bluetooth, battery, Wi-Fi... I'm only not using this as a daily because of the 3g reboots; back to stock based and a locked bootloader until I get a code from Huawei.
Guest AussieExpat Posted April 29, 2013 Report Posted April 29, 2013 (edited) MAYBE NOT THIS ROM BUT CURIOUS ABOUT FILENAME NOT APP NAME ON SCREEN I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong (probably am, but ..) on this ROM, on R3, and on Electra, sometimes I get the app file name, and not the App name itself coming up on screen for a shortcut: such as jp.co.johospa... coming up for Jorte calendar, instead of Jorte (I've noticed this before in the Settings>Apps listing, but am curious what's causing it on the screen -- not a dire "problem" as I know what the thing is but .....? btw -- I realise I can change the name by edit, but not for widget? but how come it's necessary sometimes and not others? Edited April 29, 2013 by AussieExpat
Guest fraska Posted April 29, 2013 Report Posted April 29, 2013 So, whats the battery life in R4? Any reports? It's better than R3, after 14h 34m from about 60% with always WI-Fi on or 3G i've got about 5%
Guest kyan31 Posted April 29, 2013 Report Posted April 29, 2013 (edited) you, of all people, kyan should know that that is NOT a false report -- nor was it caused by an OTA upgrade -- I was speaking of my own experience of upgrading (trying to) from CM10.1 R2 to R3 and as I have explained it -- how did I NOT do (or try to) a full wipe????? -- I was following the procedure written on the install page for the Electra ROM, and let's see who that was written by .... I actually wasn't quoting you, its just a general phrase, that is why I didn't use "quote marks". Sorry for the confusion, though you shouldn't jump to conclusions without actually knowing what's going on. Edited April 29, 2013 by kyan31
Guest kieranswhite Posted April 29, 2013 Report Posted April 29, 2013 weird i did full wipes properly and im getting reboots as well as crashes in apollo (my bootloader is officially unlocked)
Guest Worlon Posted April 29, 2013 Report Posted April 29, 2013 (edited) Unfortunately the signal lose is valid on R4. My phone shows maximum signal, but when I call myself, my telephone doesn't avaliable. After reboot works fine for a same time. Now I'm isntalling A5. Edited April 29, 2013 by Worlon
Guest lakyljuk Posted April 29, 2013 Report Posted April 29, 2013 Daz, I can confirm, signal lost a few times a day on R4. I have full signal, leave phone for some time intact, when I wake it up, it show no signal and I have to reboot manually. Do you need any debug info?
Guest blacksh4dow Posted April 29, 2013 Report Posted April 29, 2013 Dazzozo, can you add smartassv2 governor in next release?
Guest bluecjh Posted April 29, 2013 Report Posted April 29, 2013 Having applied the latest update, there still seems to be the volume issue on outgoing calls. I am sure on the stock rom I could turn the volume on outgoing (or incoming) calls down to virtually nil. Is this issue, which is fairly fundamental to the phone, a tough one to crack? Because it seems to have persisted for a long time through successive upgrades. It goes without saying that I am a fan of this project, but this lack of volume control on calls is quite a nag.
Guest Posyhov Posted April 29, 2013 Report Posted April 29, 2013 (edited) second day on this soft and everything seems to be ok :) No signal loss for now. Thank you very much for update! Edited April 29, 2013 by Posyhov
