I got BF3 myself and lot of my friends are moving over to that from Black Ops 2.But yeah sorry to hear about your rig man.I usually use MCM for parts for TV's and what no but I don't know if they sell power suppiles for computers.And if you see this before July I will be up in MI from July 1st til 3rd going from Lansing to St. Helens to Saginaw before going to Rosemont Illinos for AMW on 4th of July weekend.I can meet up with you after AMW and see if I can help with the computer.I've fixed power supplies on TV's before and if the boards are the same then I should be able to fix it.What's up guys? Long time no see. I've been really busy, remodeling my back porch, working, and just got Battlefield 3 for 5 bucks. Also, my power supply burned up on my main rig, literally blew up a capacitor, scared the heck out of me, and I didn't have a powerful enough one sitting around to run it. I did just order one though, good power supplies are expensive now. So, I'll try to get a new release out in the next few weeks. Just waiting on the psu to arrive.
Now, for all the people that are having issues ...
Sorry to say it, but you should do some research in to the history of ICS on our phone. We had very good devs working for over a year trying to get the camera to work at all. I have no coding experience, except what I have done with this phone, so before you ask for things to be fixed, instead of just reporting bugs, do a google search about your issue, and see if you can find some useful info about it. That is what I have to do every time, and it burns up a lot of the time I have, to actually fix this stuff. Plus I am in the same boat as you, when you ask for it to be fixed, you are already ahead of me in finding a solution, cause you know when and how the issue happens, better than anybody else. I'm just a guy who wanted to make his phone better and think I have done a decent job with that. Almost any ROM that you use for the Triumph now, has my fingerprints on it, which makes me feel good to have been able to contribute. But I'm still flying by the seat of my pants here, so be patient.
Thanks for all the support and feedback everybody. I don't plan on moving on from my 25 a month plan anytime soon, so as long as I own a Triumph, I have 2, I'll be here chipping away at it.
If anybody is interested in helping out, I have put most of my source code out, and am open to help out as much as I can. This has been a difficult journey by myself, any help is appreciated.

Any time you want to "borrow" my rig, let me know. I barely use it right now as I'm crazy busy too. Hit me up on GT or PM and I'll set you up with my teamviewer info. Also, I don't know if g60 set up an FTP for you, but if you hit him up I know he would.
p.s. I'll have the code sync'ed up tonite.
Thank you. I appreciate all the times you provide links for the issues that you discuss, It helps out tremendously. Unfortunately, unless they added a bunch of stuff to 10.1, I don't see us getting it any time soon. 10 to 10.1 was as big of a jump as ICS to JB 4.1. Thanks for the heads up though.
Thank you very much. When the cap blew, it was like 4th of July came early, my whole room lit up and even with headphones on, it sounded and felt like my 12 ga, went off. I'm not gonna lie, I was WIDE awake after that.Chipped in on power supply... ain't much, but I'm real tight this month.
those big caps will sure wake you up when they go.
Read the response to jhonka232 above.
Thanks for the offer, but I've been building PCs for more than ten years now, so it shouldn't be an issue. I have about 10 working/fixed PCs just laying around, but my big rig has no onboard graphics and the only graphics card I have needs power, plus the motherboard uses the new 24 pin power harness. So that all added up to getting a new one. I have no problem fixing components but with the explosion and as hot as the PSU was, I would rather have it new, since it is one of the most important parts there are.
What's AMW? I think I may be going up north for the fourth, but hit me up when you are up here. If I don't respond it is because I am in the middle of the woods, too drunk,or both. lol.:cheers:
Thank you for the offer, I have a back up rig, quad core, 3ghz, I'm using it now. But all my new stuff is on a drive in the other tower. I guess I could just pull the drive and put it in my HDD dock. I also updated my systems to Ubuntu 12.04, everything seems to work fine, building wise. I'm just glad I could get Gnome back, Unity is a hot mess.
I will also look into CM9 for you. Once I get the PSU, I'll sync the release branch and try to track down any issues. It shipped today, so hopefully I'll get it before this weekend.
Thanks everybody.

AMW is Anime Midwest.Ya lol.I'm going north on the 2nd in St Helens.It's near Lake St Helens lol.It's like in Rosscommon area.it's like 2 and a half hours from Lansing.
So I decided to pull my hard drive and throw it in a dock, on my back up system, and see what I could do.
Ok everybody, this is a tester built from my 15FEB2013 release source, with some stuff from my newest work. I pulled in touch gpu and camera from the newer kernel and most of the system wide fixes. This is not completely fine tooth combed, but figured I'd throw it out for testing. I am running it on both of my phones now and haven't seen any issues, but it's only been built for a half hour.
Feedback is greatly appreciated, I think I got rid of some lag issues but other than that haven't had time to test everything.
If you are already setup, then you can just make a backup, then wipe cache and install the ROM and Gapps, that is how I did it on my good phone. If you are oon a different ROM then follow the instructions in the OP.

Let me know how it goes.

Been there. One place I worked, many many years ago, had a bunch of AT&T 386 computers that would occasional have exploding caps in the power supplies. I've also had a cap explode in a CRT monitor (also many years ago). They are loud.

Have you discharged a CRT? Must have big ones for that. I don't remember why, but it was mentioned in a book. Not something that I would ever do.
CRT's act as capacitors (storing voltage), and use very high voltage (tens of thousands of volts), so you sometimes have to discharged them before you work on them. I've been shocked once or twice by them, decades ago. I have imploded one or two too, just for fun, also decades ago. Fortunately, there aren't many CRT's around any more, and many that are aren't worth working on.

Hi everyone how can I find the MSL code for this ICS version. My 3G speed got slower and I would like to edit my MSL Code.

I think BSydz is working on some other parts right now. Does the LED flashlight work? (don't have time to test myself right now) If so, then it sould be a semi-linking issue. Let us know. I'm sure I can figure that part out if the current code is pushed up.
I don't think you modify the MSL code. It's a code to keep people out of their phone radio settings, like the phone number that's attached to it.

OK, thanks. I can see if the internal links are set up. I just want to finish what I am doing then I have to build what is there, then I could see if the problem is still there then try to figure out why it's not working.

Hey guy my 3g speed and signal go down is there anyway I can fix this?

I think as the code gets worked through the connection issues will subside.
Guys, I know that the development is coming slowly, but it's just us two. And we're working on different projects, along with our lives. If someone would like to help out it doesn't take a bunch of experiance to play woth the code. What I have done is without programming experiance. And I thind that BSydz doesn't have any programming experiance either. It would be nice for the community if someone would help out with some experiments. That would cut out a bunch of time from release to release.
Hit me up if you want to give it a try.
Send me whatever you think I can do. I've taken C# in school...although I doubt it'll help much in android development. I'm trying to get started in the kind of stuff you guys are doing.

I've been using this and I only have one thing to report so far.When I go to use Navigation if I don't get a GPS lock on first thru Google Maps then I get the black screen of death.No matter how much I hit the power button to get the screen to turn back on it won't work.The GPS itself locks pretty well as long as I have service.Here in St Helen where I am now I have no signal and the GPS won't lock at all.But when I was using it with Wi-Fi on or where I had signal it locked pretty quick.But for some reason when I was on I-96 going to Lansing I kept losing GPS signal.Is there a GPS dead zone thru there BSydz?
Anyways outside that the tester works great for me.

I wouldn't mind at all testing, but keep in mind I'm not on Virgin anymore. The Triumph has been literally 100% unbrickable, so I don't care what you have to throw at me
I'm using the tester JUN 25 rom and is really good. It fixes most of the problem MIUI gingerbread had which is great. But I hope you can improve the graphics performance and more accurate signals. I still get the same quality signal as on MIUI, CM7 or even sharp rom but it says that getting a lower signal.

Let's call it "working on it" I have a guy that should be helping out, jr9306. I have to make sure that the code is up to be built from a syncing stand point. After I get that I hope he (and anybody else) can get some work done.
I also want to incorporate the JB status bar feature for CM7. After I get this part done that will be my priority. Then back to this. I don't know what kind of direction jr was looking for, but if could I wouid like to work on the device files. It's boring work, but needs to get done.
