Root White Widow

you guys....
"If your touchscreen doesnt work, flash the tsupdate3.zip on the next post."
that mean it DOESNT WORK
as in you cant do ANYTHING.
dont use it unless you have to because it doesnt work that great.
these issues i cant fix because your using a different kernel.

I have to flash it cause when I flash WW my touchscreen doesn't work at all, I have to use the trackpad to navigate. It's cool that you can't fix it, its a bummer too cause your rom is really good, but I wouldn't expect anyone to make massive changes to a rom just cause a few have a problem. Keep up the good work though, its nice to have someone who is consistent with updates, and also support with their rom.
 
that was directed towards a few other people that have PMed me after flashing the tsupdate because their ts was laggy.
 
Question. Can I remove of the gallery apps. I like the columns and rows horizontal scroll, but not the all pictures list vertical scroll. I've trashed and can't thinkof a way to ask. Sorry if I'm jjrii

I removed the 2D gallery by going to terminal emulator and running:
Code:
su
rm /system/app/Gallery.apk

Then again I had to make the system's filesystem not be read-only.
If you need to fix that, google "android read only filesystem."
Oh and grats on still getting that message across, despite being drunk. lol.

Though, looking back, I'm not even sure that's an answer to your question.
 
two people from TN both named Jamey? weird!

I'm noticing a common theme among people posting screens. Whats with all the pics of weeD?

its just my screens with the weed. im a huge pothead...it happens haha
im all honesty...you should thank weed. id never be able to sit down and focus enough to crank or the linux kitchen, all the white widow roms, smash rom, AND my next project...Smush Rom. haha

yes Smush Rom. Its a name. lmao
 
I guess you go with what you know. I'm not a preacher or anything, I don't care what people do. Glad it gets you thru all of this andrizoid, you are a true asset to the community. @cornbreadfarts, the other Jamey would be me!
 
When I enable WiFi, I'm unable to make phone calls. Is this typical with Cyanogen-based ROMs ? I first noticed the "3G" icon in the status bar get replaced by the WiFi icon but didn't give it much thought. Tried to make a phone call and it pops up a message about "Not registered on network..." or similar.
 
Didn't work for me, unless I'm doing something wrong. I disabled all (4) settings, two for PLMN and two for SPN, rebooted, and it still appears.

your doing something wrong. ive removed it myself before, but right now im on a different rom-working out some kinks in smash rom-so i cant check. just look around, its not hard to find the right settings :P
 
your doing something wrong.
Thanks for the helpful response... PLNM, from what I read, is the carrier name. Nonetheless, both ""Display PLMN (lockscreen)" and "Display PLNM (status bar)" are un-checked. The "T-CDMA 64" is the "SPN" value. Both "Display SPN (lockscreen)" and "Display SPN (status bar)" are un-checked. Reboot the phone and it remains on my lock-screen.

ok, let me hit up my old backup and ill get it for you
 
If you're not currently using this ROM, don't feel obligated. I would hope that others running it could help.... Especially the person earlier who asked the same and it worked for them.

Another topic related to this ROM: How do you turn on/off the shutter sound in the camera ? It appears the only option is to turn down the (master) volume.
 
Baked in Ivans-Apn and Handcent fixes MMS
I still had to apply the "MMS Fix" that's floating around. I do use Handcent too. No big deal... It's working now.
ADW and Spareparts in the Settings menu
How do users update ADW (or SpareParts) ?
NO JIT-I disabled for a reason, in my experience JIT makes the phone less stable, use Jcases JIT patch to enable it on your phone
For what it's worth, I tried Jcase's JIT patch and followed the instructions. When I rebooted, the phone was 100% unusable. I got multiple Force Closes on all sorts of apps. One after the other. Had to pull the battery and do the removal steps with the phone in recovery mode.
Optional Installs package is pushed to your SD card, check there for keyboard choices etc.
Can you expand on that ? I saw the "Clicker" item and something else. How do I install those ? Do I install one or both ? These are the HTC keyboards, yes ?

most people dont need it, ive never had to use it.

no need to update. updated versions will be in new releases. if you dont want to wait just update like normal. they wont be under settings anymore, they will be in the normal spots.

its unstable. told you so. haha

expand on what? the optional installs package is put in a folder on your sd card in case you want to install them.

install both. clicker is needed for the HTC IME mod to install. enable under settings>keyboard. then long press on a text field and choose your input method
 
just to brighten ya andrizoid, this is def my everyday rom. got the girlfriend even talked into letting me try to root (leak) hers and put ww on on it BC she likes it so much.
 
question for magic elixr MM theme usuers:

did it change your boot animation? i swear it didnt do it before when i was on 4.3, but then when i flashed 4.4 and themed it again, now i have its boot screen.

also, is it possible to take a boot animation from another rom and put it as mine?
 
After installing WW i found 2 different Gallery apps. How do I delete one of em?
Also, I seem to be the only person who doesn't like HandCent. How can i delete it, because when i go to delete it with AppRemover, it isnt listed.

use root explorer to remove them. or
adb shell
cd /system/app
rm -r ***app**

remember that w/o handcent you wont be able to get mms.
 
Ok, thanks for telling me about the MMS problem. How do i only use handcent, like what settins should be enabled/disable in both apps (Messages and HandCent)?


EDIT: nvm, i got it
