Root (Port) Behold 2 1.6 ( No Twiz w/ Busybox & Rooted Kernel )

Is anyone else getting a FC on boot with the Mms app? It works fine afterwards, but idk if this is something I did wrong or a known issue.

Thanks :)

Yeah I have had the Mms FC problem too, and like you said it is fine afterwards and doesn't even really close all the way. Just to be clear this is with the Mms.apk not the TwMms.apk.

Hey BH_MAN,

I wanted to as you if you next version of this rom will have the auto brightness in the setting menu or does 1.6 not have that at all. I turned it on in the twiz setting menu, but I don't know if it really works. I think this may be the reason some people have really poor battery life and others don't. Some people may have their brightness all the way up others may not. This is just a guess people so please don't get mad at me. I'm not saying any of you are too stupid to look cause I made the same mistake the first day on this rom.

Also, I don't have the sleep bug either. I did the wait 5min and press the menu button and the screen didn't come on. Is it possible that some of us have this and some of us don't because some flashed to the galaxy 1.6 first and others like myself went to no twiz 1.6 first? I had a feeling you would be coming out with a behold 2 version 1.6 or at least one that had the camera app and vibrate working so I stayed with your no twiz 1.5 rom because I really liked that one. Once I saw we had the same thing with 1.6 I flashed to the stock twiz 1.6 and then to the no twiz 1.6... Now no sleep bug. Again I may be completely wrong. Just a guess.
 
The Android system is 100% almost.... Which means it's not going to sleep correctly..

It seems like it's sleeping properly (based on all of the ways I've seen to test it), and I didn't turn it on until it was off of the charger, so I'm still baffled, but I'll try re-starting it again anyway. Also, I noticed today that I can't send pictures using Handcent because the resize feature doesn't resize the pictures to be small enough. Don't know if this is app related or rom related, just thought I'd see if anyone else is having the problem.

Thanks again for all of your hard work BH_MAN!
 
I know a Few app will Cause a no sleep issue, but it's not traceable due to the fact it seldom happens all the time... But, then again I've not had a huge amount of time the last few day to iron out the bug's either ;D
 
Another thing I have noticed.... The dialer crashes and crashes and crashes and then causes the system to crash. I haven't really had this issue when recieving a call, but when making one, it will freeze and crash almost every time.

Something I did, or is everyone else having issues?
 
nothing has changed!?!????

I don't understand your question

I mean is this behold2 no twiz 1.6 that was on here yesterday or bhman posted a new version today?

Reason i ask because people said that the download link was broken,my question is is this a repost or new rom version?Thanx in advance.
 
Hey BH_MAN... I know this thread is starting to flood with issues, but you mentioned giving you a list of the FC's that happen for troubleshooting purposes.

Today, I had a FC that said com.google.something... I was at work again and forgot to write it down.

Also, I have this constant error message that's saying my SD card had to suddenly unmount. Not sure what's going on with that.

Thanks!
 
Hey BH_MAN one other thing I noticed with this rom that you testers have probably told you about or it has been mentioned already. I try to read all of the thred and I don't remember seeing it, but I could be wrong.

Anyways, what I'm talking about is the proximity sensor. Not a huge deal for me since I text, email, surf the web, and use apps more than I talk on the phone. However, I'm sure some of us on here are the exact opposite. If anyone else is having this problem let me know please so I know it's just not my phone.

Proximity sensor works fine for me. Download Sensor List to make sure it's the sensor and not the app
 
Wanted to confirm this, my face puts the phone on speakerphone often.

I haven't been getting the sleep bug. I haven't rebooted the phone for 3 days now and only charged it once in those 3 days (last night), and right now it is sitting at 97% battery 5h15m since unplugged in the battery stats. 3% of battery for 20 text messages, 10min of web browsing and 5 hours of sleep is phenominal. The galaxy 1.6 roms would chew my battery at least down to 60% in those 5 hours.

Widgets: Pandora, Mini Player, Facebook, Digital Clock.
GPS, Wireless Location, Share w/ Google, Background Data + all Sync options are all on as well and I never turn them off. WiFi and Blutooth are always off when not in use. Screen brightness set to automatic. I am always at 2 or more bars of signal strength on 2G (Edge).

I usually have this web forum loaded on the web browser too. I don't use task killer or any games currently. The only additional apps I use not included in the rom are Facebook, Pandora, Smart Vibrator, MomentFlash (flashlight app), SpeedView, Quick Setting, and Better Keyboard (4.7?).

I hope this helps some of the people out there that get horrible battery life when under minimal usage. Maybe it can be used to compare settings and setups to help some people get longer up times.

you had your wifi, gps and share data set to 'on', but did you actually use them (at least once during the 3 days you stated above)?

i notice the above can be set to 'on' without affecting sleep if one does not use them, but once you have used either services (e.g google maps, any gps mapping program or weather programs), the phone wont sleep and the battery will drain. this happens on my behold II.

not too sure if it is a rom bug or across devices kernel bug. as a layman, i am inclined to believe it is an android bug per se as similar problems exist on N1 and Hero.

for all users who are having horrid battery life, the main culprit is the phone not sleeping when not in use, BH_MAN has pointed out a simple way to check if your phone is sleeping - by pressing the 'menu' button 5mins after the phone has been idling. if the screen lights up, your phone is not sleeping.

in that case, until a fix comes up (if it comes up), you are better off switching all the location services off if you do not require them; if you do, the next best (if troublesome) way to get the phone to sleep is to reboot after every use of those services (simply switching them off under settings after each use will not work, phone will still not sleep).

the above are all my personal experience, they aint 'scientific' and may not even be the 'norm' :)
 
Proximity sensor works fine for me. Download Sensor List to make sure it's the sensor and not the app

Downloaded the sensor list app and all of them seem to be working. Two of them say compass, one say temperature, magnetic field, then there are two that one of which I assume is the proximity sensor and the other probably the light sensor. The one listed as GP2AP shows a vaule of 0 the 1 when I put my finger where the sensory is. The other one is listed as BMA150. Don't know if this will help anything but I think the sensors are working fine.

*EDIT: Googled GP2AP and it is the proximity sensor and it is working. BMA150=Accelerometer
 
Wow this is great. Lovin it. But no gallery app? I like to show off photos and its a must. Can I just pull it out of the Galaxy 1.6 rom? Well I'm going to try and see what happens hehe

Ummm What about "Photo Gallery"? It's the stock TW Photo Gallery and it's there.

IS there a way to lock the keypad when in calls? I know I did that before, but I can't remember if it was galaxy or what.... Handy feature though, any way to do that in this?
