ummm ok what's the point in that?That's not helping us get 3G so I don't see what you are asking us for with that.

Aw, don't snap at the guy. He probably just wanted that feature integrated in a new build. I see your point, we all want 3G so we can ditch ICS, but we'll get it soon. We just have to believvveeeee.
At least I hope, it'll save me the cost of a new phone for a while
 
Well they got a zip file on there for it so it doesn't have to be put into the build.I'm all about fixing the major stuff with JB.I personally don't care for add-ons that don't improve the phone.

Yeah I don't mean to sound snappy it's just to me it's pointless.They have the zip file you can flash so like I don't get if he was wanting us to test it or if he wanted BSydz to put it into the ROM.Again I'm like this if it is something that is helpful or improves/fixes the phone I'm all for it.This is just not that.But yeah I love me some JB.And as long as BSydz is working on ICS I'm not ditching it cause he has made that ICS work like smooth butter on the Craporola Triumph.

I guess I found another person that pledges never to buy another Motoshit device.

I don't see how Virgin Mobile isn't sending at least a 100 dollar check to all these developers. They have a terrible lineup of phones, and if it wasn't for these devs, everyone who bought a Triumph would be spending their money on a phone somewhere else.
As for Motorola, I feel as if they should have a lawsuit on their head from Virgin Mobile.
To the untechsavvy people of US, everyone who bought a Motorola Triumph, and didn't have a good signal due to the crappy radios, is gonna blame Virgin Mobile for "having crappy service". Can you imagine all the slander and bad reputation a phone like this did to the company? If it was good like the LG Optimus V, this would sell like hotcakes. The Optimus V has 4.2.2 currently. And they sold so well, that even though its a 4-3 year old phone, Virgin Mobile asked for another batch so they can sell more. On the other hand, the much newer Triumph has been taken off the shelves and was rightfully done if they don't want their company going down in the dump even more.

lol well my dad told me they use to be a good company back in the day....unfortuneately that day was in the 1950 lol.It's a good phone just poorly made.It's mostly software and soder issues with the phone.Too bad the MTDEV team and BSydz don't work for Moto otherwise this phone would have been great from day 1......not day 730.

To me Virgin is an amazing carrier, I've been with a few and Virgin Mobile does truly treat me like a god. If I need a new battery, right away. If I need a new charger, it'll be here in 2 days within my call. My down speed is 1.9-2.5 mbps, and my up is 900 kbps. What really kills their hype is their phone lineup. Their most dev friendly phones are either very old, or no longer being sold. Imagine if they had a Nexus, or something truly high end. Of course, there'd be that problem that they can't deliver such an amazing device for such a low cost. So they'd do $50-60/month with unlimited 4G, text/calls, and 1000 minutes.
My God, that company would be golden if that were to happen.
But hey, dreams can be dreams

I've been with Virgin since 2004 back in the old K9 days.I remember going to a campground with a friend and we were at the pond on a boat and he dunked my phone in water.When I called Virgin about it they replaced it free of charge.I've always had good experiences with them.As for the phones not so much.I've had the K9,V7 Flasher,the Snapper,the Cyclops,the Shuttle,LG Rumor,Samsung Intercept,and now Motorola Triumph.
 
Hi guys,.... I'm a mi410 user. It just like a dejavu when I read some posts in this thread. When we're in ICS, we were have the camera preview problem, YouTube video problem, and other video preview problem, but we solved them by removed a line in pmem in kernel source( I don't remember which line number, but it at "if" conditions, you can diff the sources to find it). Also for video capture, it only can work at 480x640, so we modify media_profiles.XML to make it work at that size.
In JB, we also change the mediaserver file.
I'm not sure but since our devices are very similar, may be it may help, or may be you have done it but they still remain. Or may be our cams are different.

Editted:
Here is the change in our kernel source to make video preview work:
At file drivers/misc/pmem.c, at line 1584
if ((data->flags & PMEM_FLAGS_MASTERMAP) ||
(data->flags & PMEM_FLAGS_SUBMAP) ||
(data->flags & PMEM_FLAGS_UNSUBMAP)) {

we removed mastermap condition and changed it to:
if (/*(data->flags & PMEM_FLAGS_MASTERMAP) || */
(data->flags & PMEM_FLAGS_SUBMAP) ||
(data->flags & PMEM_FLAGS_UNSUBMAP)) {

Thanks, I appreciate you helping us out. Do you have your kernel source anywhere? It's the CK kernel, right?

I looked and we don't have that line. I compared it with abens 2.6.35 kernel and our pmem is newer, and has a few extra lines, but is basically the same.

Do you guys still have issues with high end games rebooting the phone? I have fixed the GPU drivers in the kernel.
https://github.com/MT-ParanoidAndro...mmit/f424a82a602f7236594ad44344a50fd9b98f2c4b

Also, I have searched and searched, but can't find a repo for any X6 ROMs. Do you know where I can find any? I would like to see some of the frameworks edits that you guys use to see if it will help us. I have gotten most of the factory stuff working, like phone drivers popping up when plugged in to a PC and building the FM server in /system/core. You should also check out my init and uevent files for the kernel, they may help you guys out, they are in device files in prebuilt.

That's all I got right now, any help is appreciated.

No but I have helped on the forums over there cause I've installed ROMs on some V's cause my friends were too scared to cause they thought the directions were too complicated.I got another V i'm putting a ROM on today but I haven't done it in so long I had to look back on the threads over there.

It's the luck of the draw. I have a friend with a phone that still doesn't have any ROMs. And it's been out for a couple of years.

I'd also note the fact that the phone was on every major carrier in the US, and in other countries as well. The Sprint version got us so many ROMs, all that had to be done was flash a button mapper to re map the bottom buttons.

Would we ever want a Motorola Triumph 2?

Thing is on that forum, they mostly send you to to other sites for stuff.

The MoTri forum is user friendly!

I think it's less of the forum and more of the users. I have heard of bad stories from other sites, not just for phones, but for other geeky stuff.

It's cause the person that makes the ROMs for the Optimus does it for Sprint and puts a fix for the Virgin Mobile phones but he is only on Android Central and not on here.Some people posted threads on here with the ROMs he had giving him credit but they pulled those threads.
