also anyone notice that on a windows system if your screen locks while hooked up you cant access the storage but on a Linux system, at least on Ubuntu, you can?
thought id just share that.

i have found link2sd and foldermount tricky with this rom. also i know to move my junk over im talking about the 3+gigs of games i play. not pics and junk.
on a side note has anyone here tried the game "Vega Conflict" on this rom?
it keeps crashing on me pretty much as soon as i do anything

are u over clocked ur prosser?

Is it possible to have pictures saved to SD card instead of internal using CameraMX?

Yes. Settings / Camera / Custom Save directory.

Yes. Settings / Camera / Custom Save directory.

The most it'll let me do is make a new folder. I can't choose to make a directory to SD card instead if internal.

I've been having issues with random reboots and battery inaccuracy. I've switched kernals I think when going from AWEsome 1.6 to CM11 so I probably just need to recalibrate in regards to the battery. The random reboots I have no idea on but as a whole, I think CM11 might be my favorite.

I don't really understand what you're saying.

I don't really understand what you're saying.

It doesn't allow me to change it to the SD card. I can change the folder it saves into but it'll still be a folder in the phone's internal memory.

 

[armymartinez]

I'd guess try a different camera app then. Mine functions fine. My path is /storage/sdcard1/DCIM/Camera

The phone gets very warm and reboots if you overclock. Make sure that you provided adequate cooling. Check out http://androidforums.com/threads/possible-overheating-fix.873341/

What camera app do you use?

 

[armymartinez]

I use CameraMX.

Hadnt thought about that. I have removed those covers and such but never bothered with the hole drilling aspect. What really sparks my interest with that is that I use a gel or something similar soft case with a hard plastic case designed to go over it. I'm wondering if perhaps my case is conserving enough heat to cause the reboots. I can't feel if the Awe is getting hot or not with the case on so of may have very well been happening and I just didn't know it.

Im hoping this rom works but i am a little late finding out about this subforum because Ive been scouring the internet for different things on this phone but anything i should know before installing this rom??

 

[Briankd]

I assume your new so welcome. I'm not the expert a lot of users here are but I can tell you this ROM (along with every other in this subforum) works on the ZTE Awe. I would say research what your wanting to do. Learn about it and figure out if that's for you or not. If you still want to proceed, this community is an awesome source of knowledge for the Awe. It has slowed down a bit here but still great. As far as this particular ROM, its my daily user and I love it. I can't get the Pure Audio Mod working though errrr! That's a really small thing and its almost certainly myself rather than the ROM that is the problem. As for getting the ROM flashed, I believe you'll need to be rooted with a custom recovery (I prefer TWRP for the touch interface) and you'll need to be familiar with making backups. The backups take up a bit of space but much better safe than sorry. As I said earlier, you'll need to follow instructions carefully so don't just take my word. I can promise you though that this is where you will find it all for the Awe. Great ROMs, community, support, and you can find any info you'll need here.

how long does the first boot take??

 

[Briankd]

Just a few minutes if I remember correctly. The first boot seems to take a bit longer with all Awe ROMs I've tried. Sometimes it can even feel unreasonably long and make you question the future uses of your phone/brick. It can take a bit and with that said, my thought would be that 5 minutes is more than enough time. If it hasn't booted within 5 minutes (just to be sure), something is wrong.

 

[devilschild26]

If u wipe correctly it only takes like two mins to boot

 

[treysteele3k]

Ok it booted and i flashed the gapps package with flash gordon app and ive rebooted but i still dont have any gapps what have i done wrong??

U flash ROM then gapps with the custom recovery nothing else like gordon so go back in recovery and flash gapps

 

[treysteele3k]

Will relay results after flashing with twrp

[treysteele3k]

Am I supposed to reflash cm11 as well??

 

[devilschild26]

OK wipe again except external internal flash ROM then gapps reboot

U really don't have to reflash the ROM just gapps since u don't have gapps installed the ROM is functional with out the gapps
