Root RCMIX 1.3 with sense 3.5

[CDPlant]

I've had a nice time with RcMix but it's time for me to move on already Can't stop flashing ROMs haha. Gonna try out MIUI and then back to CM (I reckon I will try the nightlys.)

RcMix is good but I have found the battery life to be sub par (8-10 hours of use) and it does lag quite a lot. What I always miss from Sense roms though is the camera and the dialer. They have really worked hard on these and they are amazing. But the beauty of root is that I can always go back

Not that hard, by all accounts, to flash a radio... I think I've got some more info on it at home, which I'll gladly post for you (if El Presidente doesn't beat me to it). It can just be a little on the dangerous side if you have low battery.

I've never messed with the radio on my phone though and not had any issues with it!

You can flash a RIL instead. Minimal chance of bricking and done in the warm loving embrace of clockworkmod.

Honestly though a radio flash is not as terrifying as it's made out to be.

cheers El for your help chap

Ok after bit of help. I keep getting FC when in contacts but its only the one contact that does it. Me missis. No matter wot I do edit, sync to fb,, rename etc. Iv tried clearing phonebook data fix permissions deleting all contacts but Still no luck. ?

Try installing Go Contacts and see if you get the same issues

This ^^

Love the stuff that the Go Dev team have brought out... use their SMS, Contacts (including the widget), Dialer and, of course, their Launcher!

 

[Shonan]

Yeah ill give it a go. Bit I really like the sense contacts.

 

[Shonan]

Also does it in go contacts too.

 

[D-U-R-X]

Also does it in go contacts too.

Have you tried delete the contact totally from the phone and then re-adding again from scratch?

 

[Shonan]

Yeah I've tried everything I can think of. It only seem to do it when I link her to fb twitter

 

[D-U-R-X]

Which one affects it... facebook or twitter (or both)?

You might just have to live without linking for now!

 

[CDPlant]

If you just want to sync fb pictures to your contacts, the app syncmypix will do it without having to link your fb account

 

[Shonan]

Its both bud. Seems odd how its only the one contact that does it. The one I use the most. All the rest work perfectly fine and link up no probs

 

[El Presidente]

Is there anything in the notes field on her contact? HTC Dumps a load of useless meta data in there which I'm sure I've read that can cause issues. Try deleting anything that's in the notes field and see what (if any) difference that makes.

 

[Shonan]

had a look and there is no notes in the field area. however iv noticed that because i have her fb profile in my contacts ready to link when i click on her fb profile in my contacts that it FC, before i even try to link her fb to her profile in my phone book !!!

would love to try and sort this as i really like this rom and for me is a keeper, everythink else seems to work flawlessly

 

[El Presidente]

You ran Fix Permissions in ROM Manager yet?

 

[Shonan]

yeah bud, also ran it in RCMIX its self to under tweeks, im at a complete loss, trouble is didnt realise how much i used it till i cant use it, if that makes sense,

 

[El Presidente]

DURX Suggested it above, but take it one step further.

Delete her from the phone, remove her as a friend on Twitter/facebook, do a Gmail/FB contact sync. Clear the contact cache, re-add her on FB, then twitter, sync both, then add her to your phonebook/google contacts, sync again.

Totally speculating here, I'm kinda stumped :/

 

[Shonan]

ok guys cheers for the help, ill give it a go tomo and let you kno how i get on, i too and puzzled by this
