That's bullshizinshazbugger! There has been a lot of headway if ya ask me bro... and we appreciate your efforts on this as Im pretty sure u got a mess of other stuff going on, yet you continue work in on this.
I Appreciate it man.
Hey if he don't like the eta process he/she can get a new device. Or they can pay pg about 75,000.00 to help him out so he can give his all into the cm10. Or just get the ninjamorph app from the market and do their his or her look alike cm10 until pg say i am done :what:
Found a sort of fix for data. Download an app from Tue app store called "switchit". It has like a green power icon (it's free). Open it and scroll down to the bottom and set the preferred network mode to "CDMA/LTE/EvDo auto". Press some of the buttons like SMSC update and refresh. It's gonna say error but that's cool. After that turn your phone off and on again. Sometimes it doesn't stick so you may have to repeat the process. Anyway once you do it 4G works perfectly, but sometimes you'll be on 3G and it won't work. You just won't be able the use the internet, sometimes it doesn't work and sometimes 3G does work. It's weird. Not the best but better then nothing.

Soon as you have a decent beta release.. Keep it up!! I already owe you a donation for using most of your Roms. From The Samsung Admire, to this phone. You seem to have the Roms I prefer. Great Work.
The main point is adb does not work. Wishing to logcat and do other things with adb, instead of using terminal emulator.
Symptoms:
Installing rom + gapps, causes me not to get past the welcome screen.
It keeps closing before I can finnish. no launcher, can't do anything in the status bar. Some times gmail setup pops up too, but also closes before I can finnish. This keeps happening randomly, but no way to get past it.
I formatted the phone, and just installed your rom. Did not install gapps. Now I can get around. But I see usb debug is on. But still adb doesnt see it.
SO, I've been trying to get adb working, but for the life of me, I've tried many combinations in write /sys/class/usb_composite/ folder, and adb still cant see the phone.
Only clockworkmod 6.0.0 works with adb.
Only when in recovery can adb see the phone.
My intentions:
I plan to see if I can install third party applications to bypass bugged stock apps. Then once I've third partied every bugged part of the system. I'll open logcat and see what errors are still left. Research those issues. Then unintsall third party apps one by one and research the errors on the stock app.
This way I can have a somewhat functioning phone while I learn about the android system.
no data or wifi connecting so no need for gapps atm.
once booted, Developer options, enable developer options, enable usb debugging, enable adb over network and then disable it. ADB should be working then.
And yea I know that last step shouldnt be needed, but for now it is.
PlayfulGod, can you edit your reserved post with the following, until it doesn't apply anymore?
"Quick hacks to make stuff work until cm10 is working"
Some of these fixes are dependent on fixes above them, will list those dependencies as needed
Want internet on your phone? See #10
Before anything, we have to get rid of the stock launcher, it will crash all day long and prevent you from getting around your phone smoothly
0.
Launcher giving you problems? App drawer keeps crashing? Having a hard time moving apps from the drawer to the launcher home screen?
Open system settings on the phone
click Security
Checkmark "Unknown sources"
Next
PLEASE USE VERSION 121 as other have issues with other versions!
Download ADWLauncher EX (adwfreak.launcher121.apk works) to your computer. You should have a .apk file
Open terminal or adb shell
type this and press enter:
adb install (directory/name of apk here)
Should be installed now
press your home button, make sure the new launcher its set to default ("Always").
Yay, now we can actually use the phone!
1.
Usb Debugging not working? (thanks PlayfulGod)
Must do this every reboot
Open settings
Open Developer options
At the top right make sure the switch is on the "on" position (it is by default)
Enable Android debugging
Enable ADB over network
Disable ADB over network
ADB should be working then.
*note "start adbd" command is not being sent at boot, a part of the adb over network involves "stop adbd && start adbd"
2.
alogcat doesn't show anything? Empty white screen?
Open terminal or adb shell
type this and press enter:
pm grant org.jtb.alogcat android.permission.READ_LOGS
alogcat will now read logs properly (this is jellybeans fault as they moved the logs into protected storage requiring supersu permissions, but the app by default does not ask for these as pre jellybean did not have this "feature"
3.
When you turn on wifi, all the access points show up and then suddenly disappear?
Open terminal or adb shell
type this and press enter:
touch /data/misc/wifi/ipconfig.txt
what this does is creates an empty file called ipconfig.txt at /data/misc/wifi/ I had noticed a file not found error when starting the wifi. This doesnt fix the internet issue, but does allow me to see access points.
OR
Next time you open settings, click on wifi, turn it on, and rapidly quickly tap right where the first access point WOULD show up. If you did it right, it should have either saved it or asked you for the password, enter a fake password. save. Now your list wont dissapear
4.
Mount your sdcard?
Open terminal or adb shell
type this and press enter:
mount -t vfat /dev/block/mmcblk0p15 /mnt/sdcard
(we have internal working fine now, but external requires you "lift" your battery, and "re insert" your sdcard to get it to mount at /mnt/sdcard_ExternalSD)
5.
Tired of your whole screen flashing black and then closing whatever you were in every 10 seconds?
Go back to the top, and read #0 (should have done that anyways)
6.
App hangs or freezes, tired of waiting for it to force close itself?
Open system settings, goto developer options,
check "Kill app back button"
This kills the foreground app by long pressing the back key
7.
Having trouble giving apps su permission when it requests it? (like file manager and terminal
Keep taping the screen right where the "accept" button for supersu usually pops up. Seems its being drawn UNDER the current app, but the buttons are on top like they are supposed to. (this works for file explorer)
You might want to just open superuser goto settings and "always allow" for prompt permissions that way we don't have to worry about it glitching
Great work PG... just flashed it this morning and been toying all day with this.
I like the profiles in the settings, the whole settings apk is sweet.
I thought I was gonna blow my eardrums, the phone speaker, or both with that gawd awful squealing but the calls are connecting through the noise....
umm.... I just looked... and I have a missed call from someone I know. call ID worked. lolz.... it even connected when I called him back. I can hear his voice through the noise. So calls are going through. just sound hardware issue.
I can't get a keyboard working though. Installed swipe but it crashes.
I have screenshot it installed, and as soon as I can mount the SD I can get decent screenshots up.
installing/uninstalling .apk's from android commander works great after toggling the debugging on off and on again.
even adw launcher is going to black screen constantly, and app drawer and apps do the same....
I uninstalled the other launcher, and adw is still screwy.
can't wait for this to be stable and have bug free cdma/data/wifi/and mounts. Going to keep me with the esteem until AFTER the t mobile metro merger.
Decided to wait and NOT get the GS3 as this Rom is so close.
I will be needing a donation link for sure PG when you release the finished ROM.

(init.bryce.rc has this down correctly, don't know why it doesnt auto mount)(actually probably because it should be mounted as extSdCard not sdcard as that is emmc (internal). I saw some posts about bad things happening when people forced their extsdcards to be sdcard and vise versa)

#seems com.google.android.inputmethod.latin is the cause of crash of keyboard (possibly something about using the wrong version of gapps, read to use an older version... I didn't even install gapps, and know many roms where your not required to get a working keyboard)
also "hardware keyboard" is enabled by default. Shouldn't be as we don't have one?
Something really messed up from flashing this Rom.... I can't program my phone. It switches airplane mode off and on, and crashes com.android.phone every three seconds. Restring didn't fix it. Flashing another Rom didn't fix it.
wiped everything. didn't fix it.
Now LGPNST see's my phone on the port. But it's unrecognized. and wont let me return to stock.
Android commander works though.
But I have no service, and I AM NOT stuck in test mode.
anyone else have this problem, or know how to fix?

PG, I'm sure you hear this atleast 10 times a day, but you are the ******* man, man.
I'm a bit nervous to flash and check it out, still being in DEV stages, as I'm still a bit of a noob with android platforms (my luck I'll get stuck and won't be able to fix my only phone lol) so I haven't seen it first hand but from what I know of CM9/10 and the screens I've seen this is truly amazing.
Thank you for your continued work for a phone that's unfortunately phasing out, that most people have given up on.
As I do realize this is a WIP and I'm sorry if this has been asked before but what are the chances of this becoming more than the WIP? (Please tell me atleast 75% lol) NOT asking for an ETA, just really have high hopes to see this phone become more than GB.
Regardless, I know you're a very busy person so I won't take much more of your time. Just know that this made my really shitty morning a lot better when I seen this was recently updated... thanks again PG.
