Root [ROM] CTMod 3.80 (04/06/13)

Has anyone had trouble with the Hardware Camera button? I keep getting error message "Cannot Connect to Camera"...how can i switch it to go to a different camera app?
 
Anyone have any insight to my problem with signing into my youtube account with the app. Whever i try to sign in with an account {old or new} i get an error telling me to download google play servieces. After i download google play services i get another error that says "error not compatible with other applications using the same shared user id". I'm confused, i tried to google, i really did.

I did a fresh 3.7 install, i don't get this error on 3.68.
 
Hey guys, I've installed CT Mod before. I had 3.68 running great. I tried the exact same steps with 3.75 and it's not running right. It's slow and there is a lot more battery drain. I used SSM to format an 8 GB card with two 1024 partitions and the rest fat for general storage. Can someone please tell me the best way to install the new version? It runs great without trying to switch to Data or SSM mode. I tried Data and it slows down and drains the battery. Any help would be MUCH appreciated!
 
Bloodawn, Hey I have a question about your 3.75 ROM.

This isn't the first time I have downloaded one of your ROMs and when I do a reboot it doesn't wipe ALL of my settings but before on an older ROM it would wipe my language settings and now its wiping my Applications>Development>Screen stay lit when charging, Google Play store and also as another PERSON mentioned the camera button. I don't care about Google Play as much but the screen staying lit thing is annoying as Obama talking serious.

Also, I stay incognito as much as possible to avoid asking noobie questions BY READING but I am here quite often and thanks for your good work, without CTMOD the prevail would be a frisbee at a car pissing me off in traffic, yes in Puerto Rico the traffic is terrible, but for sure great work bro!!!

you have to first reflash the stock rom with odin then reflash CTMOD, then boot, then setup ctmod how you want, then boot into cwm, then flash your sd_partition_to_ext4.zip wipe dalvik, format sdext4 for good measure. Thats what I do, but do what you want. :)

Did you install super user first or uninstall supersu first?
 
I did the same and it does seem faster, I installed Superuser from the Play Store first, then used ES File Explorer to navigate to /data/app and deleted the SuperSU app and all is good... :D

You probably still wanna convert it to a system app... or you'll have to reinstall it if you preform a factory reset.

Edit- I assume you mean /system/app? If you installed the one from the play store and then deleted the one in /data/app then you deleted the one you got from the play store...
 
That is weird I wonder why the super user or su would make a difference. I was running a su when I was on 3.6 I never ran 3.
68, running su now and I don't seem to have any problem whatsoever. I know somethings make a difference on different phones I'm still curious as to what would cause that to do that?
 
Ok i installed superuser from market and then went into supersu settings and there is an option to switch to superuser click that then go into superuser and update and should be good to go....also u have to go to your apps that want root access and allow them again....This is the best my phone has ever ran i dont know y it makes a difference i was just changing things that were new in this rom till i figured out lag and by golly i think i found something!!

Now if i could just theme it and get the hardware camera button to work any help with that would be great!

try switching to superuser...read...i know all phones are different but i noticed a significant change doing that also i did not install as system app working fine......im tethering youtubing directving browsing everything as fast as a prevail can go....atleast mine lol
 
No that's incorrect, the SuperSU app is in the data/app folder and the one from Play Store is in System/app, trust me I've already checked and they both have different icons so I know I deleted the right one... SuperSU was not in system/app when I was looking for it and that's when I found it in data/app...

Matter of fact when I deleted SuperSU from data/app it disappeared from the applications drawer so that confirms that I deleted it from the right place...

And as far as it being made a system app I'll do one better I'll put it in the CT3.75 installation zip and remove the other one then I won't have to worry about it... :p

The supersu that comes with the rom is in /system/app. The only way you'll have one in /data/app is if it gets updated from play.

Btw, supersu's apk is named superuser.apk
 
Every time I delete an app from system/app the phone crashes for some reason that I don't know

If there's something to remove apps from system/ app without crashing the hell out of my phone could someone tell me what I need to acomplish that?
 
Just trying to replace super su with super user but now it Wont grant any permission

Well in 3.68 I could delete calendar apk, music apk, google calendar sync, mui file explorer. But for some reason when I delet them from 3.75 and turn my Bluetooth on. boot loop and phone shuts down..
 
That's because in order for Bluetooth to function correctly it relies on the music.apk to be there for some reason, weird, but that's what it is... More than likely has to do with the music being played through bluetooth headset at that point, but yeah just put the music.apk back and it should be fine...

Done super su replaced voltage control replaced flying like a rocket. Thanks to every one..
 
Just wanted to add that I too switched to Superuser and put it in system/app then deleted SuperSU and now the rom seems to be running a bit more smoothly. Thanks for the idea =)
 
Wait so this lets the phone be wiring only. So there's no more damn signal beep?
This sounds like something I need.
One question though.
Does it let you receive texts and calls OIP?
:hello: Yep!
I use Google Voice (SMS) :listen: and GrooveIP (VoIP). :call2:

GrooveIP does the VoIP bits for me, which works out fantastic since I got WiFi at the house, and at work. :D FREE CALLS! :call: FREE TEXTING! :listen:

:thumbdown: Airplane mode will turn off WiFi. :banghead: :stupid:

But fear not!

:nurse: My little app turns on the WiFi! It also sets the timezone so that you don't have to muck about with any prop files.

:nurse: To sync time I simply do that with ClockSync.

:nurse: You also will want WiFi Keep Alive so that you can be sure to get an incoming call.

:rock:
 
My Prevail has no service activated on it and CTMod 3.75 uses the wifi just fine, even after reboot the wifi is automatically connected to the hotspot I use, so that apk isn't really needed as far as I'm concerned...
Is it in airplane mode?
 
I also have never had to force my wifi on any of the versions of CTMod. It works just fine for me without any type of apk. I have service with Boost activated on it. When I didn't have service for a while I was still able to use the wifi on 3.68 with no issues. What would cause it to not work? Asking because once I upgrade and move my servise over I still might use this little wonder for all sorts of things.
It won't in airplane mode. When you restart it WiFi will be OFF...ALL PHONES WILL DO THIS.

My app will force WiFi on for you on boot IN AIRPLANE MODE without you needing to dink about with any menus, or editing any prop files etc, adnausium... That's the whole point of it.

so I changed the superuser app like you said but for me and the icon remained on my menu, and can't get rid of it /


No that's incorrect, the SuperSU app is in the data/app folder and the one from Play Store is in System/app, trust me I've already checked and they both have different icons so I know I deleted the right one...

And as far as it being made a system app I'll do one better I'll put it in the CT3.75 installation zip and remove the other one then I won't have to worry about it... :p


I tried looking for superuser on both data and system but no luck :/

anybody know of a faster keyboard? I I have SwiftKey free but it's still slow, I stay ahead at least 2
