Root [ROM] CTMod 3.80 (04/06/13)

I like this one.
I always start from scratch and never do backups, I personnaly think that's why I never have any issues like others have, but it installed perfectly the first try. No problems. Other than making sure the battery was fully charged between steps, this is all I did:

1-Odined SPHM820_EJ06-CWM5-Rooted-rfsCache.zip [reboot]
2-Flashed SPH-M820-CWM-5027-UPDT-FIXED2A.zip [reboot]
3-Ran ADB/SSM setup (16gb sandisk class4=2048/swap-2048/ext-11836/fat) [reboot]
4-Updated PRL [reboot]
5-Flashed CTMod3.6 [reboot]

Blood: the RemovedApps.zip, has it been updated or is it still the same for this one?

thanks.

Its the same
 
I always use RedLaser, never have an issue with it.

I used that also and when i go to scan it would FC like it cant use the camera, but i tired another one and both had the same FC when trying to load the camera, Camera apps like the normal camera and Friend caster camera work fine, only ones that will scan QR seam to have this problem for me.
 
From what I understand, the adreno update is included.

The dre beats is useless.
just install the equalizer that's the only part that actually made things sound any better

Nah man the dre beats made it sound better in my car seeing as i have a stock stereo there was a big diff in sound i mean i guess thats just my opinion but thanks for the response was just wondering if it was included or any of the components were included in CT thats all and how would i just install the eq what eq the other app that was in the dre beats post?
 
First off this 3.6 is smoking so far. I never seen the play store move so damn fast!!!!! Fresh install and without touching anything I logged into to play store grabbed Antutu and ran a 1853 that was with a battery at 50% and smoking hot not sure if that effects anything?

Personally I'm old school and resistant to change so I don't prefer the chrome Google, I like the stock browser better... I'm just stubborn like that.

Last thing... OK so kouma, you say that Dre beats does nothing?? I have used it on all the 3 point ctmod's they are so quiet on the ringer and all the tones. I flash the Dre beats and it makes it sound way louder. That's just me so I saved the Dre zip and flash it after CT. I'm not crazy as its very noticeable and others agree. That's my experiance... what's this adreno that was mentioned? I never heard the word tossed around before...

Hey blood, on the next go around could you add the screenshot to the pull down notification? I think it would be easier and cool and all that stuff lol.

Sweet shit all around!!!! Any faster and you might have to drop the chicken and rename to "smoking tits" :D


EDIT: I just want to add that I use the Dre beats to increase the sound of the phones ringer and notification sound. I just don't think I was clear above. I just barely started adding music to the phone and only used it twice on the car stereo. I never noticed an increase in the quality or volume with music.

I can't seem to find the post now, but someone found a post on XDA I think it was where they did a spectral analysis on the output waveforms of a stock phone vs one with Beats Audio ported and the signals were identical.

Yea, I posted a link to it somewhere in this thread but I'm on my phone right now so I can't find it.

edit:

here it is

well I've been dicking with beats audio thinking about including it in 3.3 but I don't think i will

I took my brothers prevail and mine and played the same song on each phone and couldn't tell the difference between stock and beats so i went reading through the thread on xda and saw this

i didnt know that i was just going off actually sitting in the car with CT Mod 3.5 no beats audio (my girls phone) and ct mod 3.5 w/ beats audio (my phone) and to me it was clearer and the bass hit a little harder :musicus: with out the speakers bottoming out (stock speakers). thanks for the help tho u r always so helpful.

iirc, the beats audio stuff was two pieces, the driver, and an EQ.

If so, it was the EQ that made things sound so much better. so just put that part in and enjoy the better sound :)
 
Speaking of CTMod audio... Is there any way to jack up the "master" audio level? I been using CTMod 3.5 for a few weeks now and I find that the max audio levels - ringer, in-call, and media - all seem lower then they they were when my phone was stock.
 
I'm hoping I totally missed something simple but I am having a problem installing CTMod itself, I followed the instructions up to 'Select Yes'. When I select Yes it starts finding then opening the package but immediately afterwards it says, "Can't open /sdcard/CTMod.zip (bad) Installation aborted", have I blundered somewhere, missed something? Thank you.

did you do anything to the zip? or did you just download it and place it on your sdcard?

might be a bad download.
 
Yeah I think it was a bad download...I went back one last time and lo and behold! it went right through. Thanks so much for this and thanks for the quick reply. :D
 
I am still having problems with GPS. When I turn it on its not finding location in any apps. It just says "searching for gps", and im not getting the satellite display on the top of the screen. I have installed the Koumafix as well as changing permissions to rw- rw- rw- and I am still at a loss. I reflashed the rom and the GPS worked fine until the SD-EXT was used.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Running 2.3.6
FA19
Kernel 2.6.35.14-PREVL-KK-2.5
CTMod 3.6
 
Try downloading tracker booster and running it before opening the app that needs it

Its not an issue of a weak signal its a lack of signal. The biggest issue being with navigation apps. Ive tried rebooting, uninstalling, reinstalling, reflashing. Is there something im overlooking?
 
Tracker booster forces the gps to run, the name is kinda miss leading. On the miui ROM i can't get it to activate with some apps either, i just make sure wifi is on, run tracker booster, and then open the app, icon pops (won't without this solution) and quickly locks. That's why i thought this might help you... Same symptoms.
 
Yeah I was hoping it would work. Im not sure what could cause it though but like i said when i ran the rom without sd-ext it worked fine. is the sd-ext changing the default location for the network settings or causing some sort of conflict?
