other than that i love the viper team i have already donated to the team for all the great roms that they have created thanks

This needs to get deleted. Double post. Mods please.

Pretty sure you should post ROM specific questions on that ROM's thread, instead of a) creating a new thread about it, and b) creating a new thread about it in development instead of Q&A. Reported (as if it does any good anymore).

Thought you needed 10 posts to post in development! Guess there not inforcing it.

[Q&A][CM 10.1] Do you have problems with CyanogenMod 10.1? Read this first!

To the Moderators:
This is a try at lowering the rate of repeated questions in the CyanogenMod 10.1 official nightlies // discussion thread. I am aware that this thread would probably belong in the "Q&A" section, but I fear that it will get buried and forgotten there. I beg you to consider the idea of this thread and leave it in the "General" section.
Have you flashed a CyanogenMod 10.1 official nightly? Do you have questions and problems? This post is here to help you!
Please read the entirety of this post before asking questions in the CyanogenMod 10.1 official nightlies // discussion thread!
It is assumed that you have read the first post of the CM10.1 thread (called "the OP" in the following).
If you were not able to find your information by yourself, or would not have been able to without this thread, you should reconsider flashing a CM10.1 NIGHTLY.
I will not answer Questions in this thread.
I get a "status 7" message when flashing with CWM!
It seems you are running PhilZ Kernel or a derivative of it. This kernel seems to be broken and unable to flash. Flash Siyah, Dorimanx or any other Kernel via CWM or ODIN, boot to Recovery and try again.
My phone asks for a PIN or some other code which I don't have!
You have a SIM.Locked Phone which was unlocked via an exploit. Samsungs kernel-update fixes a few issues, including those exploits. Use GalaxSim Unlock to re-unlock your phone.
Youtube/Market/GMail crashes!
You need to flash the corresponding 4.2.1 GApps, currently 20121212.
The Clock app (or any other app) crashes!
Go to Settings -> Apps -> All -> Clock (or whatever it was) and delete it's data.
Are there any other kernels supporting CM10.1?
As far as I know, all Siyah-based Kernels should work. Remember that you are not supposed to post on the CyanogenMod 10.1 official nightlies // discussion thread when using a different kernel.
I have flashed [insert any kernel here], now my phone won't boot!
The kernel obviously does not support CM10.1/Android 4.2.1. Reflash the ROM to get the stock kernel back.
Where are the developer and performance options?
Google has hidden them. With good reason. You can render your phone unbootable if you use those incorrectly. To quote Codeworkx: "bricked devices, dead SD cards, thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed."
If you apsolutely need to use them, tap Build Number until you are a developer (about 7 times).
I unlocked the Developer Options and tried to use "Simulate Screens". Now my screen is black and won't turn on again!
That is why one does not simply mess around with the dev options. Reboot your phone and press vol. down while it's booting. This will boot it to Secure Mode, where you can go and untick "Simulate Screens". Fixed.
I cannot find Photosphere! Will it be added?
No. Photosphere is not open source and therefore only available for Nexus devices.
Charging speed is very slow!
Due to hardware limitations, there are only three possible charging speeds, one of which is never used. The others are 450mA on USB and 650mA on the charger. Your phone is either draining power while being charged (media scanner?) or has a problem with the USB connector. Try cleaning it CAREFULLY or find the app responsable for the drain with BetterBetteryStats.
I want to disable the Lockscreen Widgets
Use Lockscreen Policy from the Play Store
The weather Icon of Chronus does not show on the lockscreen!
You can maximize widgets in the Lockscreen Settings. All your Lockscreen widgets will be maximized after turining the screen on. If you want to know why there's no better Option read this.
Sometimes I get freezes when scrolling through long lists!
I have never experienced this. People suggest that ticking "Force GPU Rendering" in Developer Options solves this. Other People suggest that forcing GPU rendering breaks other things, e.g. the keyboarld leaves a black space in WhatsApp. I have never experienced this, neither.
My Car Stereo/Handsfree/other Bluetooth device does not work correvtly!
All AOSP 4.2.1 ROMs including the Nexus 4 seem to have problems with Bluetooth, or more specifically A2DP. Rumour has it that it will be fixed in 4.2.2.
I get "Out of storage" messages and can no longer install Apps!
Viber and Lucky pacher are known to trigger this. Try to move them to your external SD card. If that doesn't do the trick, search /data/apps for .odex files and delete them.
I get tons of dumpstate_ril_RESET_BY_CP_SILENTRESET.log files at /data/log !
These are logs of RIL crashes. Do NOT use GetRIL to fix this. Use this instead. These zips flash modem, RIL and a few other related files. They are much more reliable than GetRIL. You can also try to Flash XXLS8 without RIL and hen reflash CM, it comes with XXLS8 RIL.
The rotation- and the acceleration sensor do not work anymore!
Deactivating tilt to scroll in Chrome should help.
Real Racing 3/Simpsons/other games crash after a very short time!
Blamesung. This is a problem with the current mali driver (mali is the graphics chip). Do not expect it to be fixed. There is a possibility to flash older drivers and fix the gaming issues (see siyah kernel), but that will bring the graphical glitches in the UI and keyboard back.
UPDATE: It seems to me that it's not the mali driver, but the audio HAL acting up. I have sudden loss of audio and a game crash a few seconds after, most prominently in World of Goo, and some people report that disabling all things audio via in-game controls fixes the crashing.
I still have a problem that was not discussed here!
Reflash the ROM and wipe cache and dalvik cache in Recovery. Reboot. Delete the data of the app that is misbehaving. Search the CyanogenMod 10.1 official nightlies // discussion thread to see if anyone has had this problem before you, and if there is a fix. If all of this fails, ask in that thread and someone will hopefully try to help you.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
I have moved on to a Sony Xperia Z. I will not trouble myself with keeping myself, the OP or the thread up to date. If you have very common problems and a solution, PM me and I'll update the OP. If you want to take over the management of this thread, PM me and we'll find a solution.
Happy flashing and bye!

this thread s completely useless... when we have a discussion thread and one development thread in original forum what was the necessity of this'd thread.. does q & a or discussion means different? think before starting a new thread..

I have been considering CM10.1 and aren't too bothered about some of the bugs but the GPS one does concern me. I use my phone as my everyday satnav, does this GPS bug mean that the navigation app is currently useless on CM10.1?

True, All of the above answers are completely useless, because they have been answered countless times alerady. But still people ask them, sometimes the same question twice in the same thread page. But instead of flaming the questioners, yelling at them, i try to answer them in one, easy to find place. It is an experiment to see if maybe the original thread gets cleaner with this, and more efficient at solving the real problems as well as discussing issues and solutions. In my oppinion, telling people to tap the build number 7 times does not count as discussion...

updated OP with the answer.

How to get Root access of ADB on this CM 10.1 version?
How to get Root access of ADB on this CM 10.1 version?
On earlier CM version 10 there was "Developer options" in settings were I could simply change that, in "Root access" section.
My problem is that i get this: (shell has been denied superuser permissions) on my Samsung galaxy tab2 7.0 when trying to install app's wirelessly from my computer using "APK Batch Installer" that I found on the internet, ow and on the tab I use adbWireless app.
Typing "su" in terminal emulator and getting access to it doesn't work.
I am trying to solve this for few days and I just now found out that on CM 10 version everything would work if i would get ADB access, so I ended here asking for help. :fingers-crossed:
P.S. Sorry.. Writing this i didn't notice that this treat is for specifically one phone, that's because I googled this But any help would be appreciated.

@Coirpre
Maybe you could ask the mods or TS in this thread to merge, add or link your OP.
It'll help that thread by just pointing queries to the OP.
Good job collecting those info btw.

If you get problems installing cm10.1 using the leaked version of Samsung jelly beans insecure kernel. You don't have to flash a kernel using odin.. If you flash sky fires dream kernel.. Reboot recovery and install cm10.1 from this kernel.. Everything works great.

[FAQ] Official FAQ Thread of GingerDX

Finally, I’m proud to present:

}
Important:
Before you post a “bug”, do a Factory reset!!! It’ll solve most issues.
Before you ask something, read the whole Thread!!!
Don’t even think about pm’ing Team Fun or me because of your Problems
Why are there two versions of GingerDX?
One version is for stock kernel, the other one for custom kernels
Which one should I use?
Well, it’s pure logic If you are on stock kernel, flash the stock version, if you are on a custom kernel, use the custom version.
I’m stuck in a bootloop! What shall I do now?
Keep calm. Enter CWM and restore a Backup or reflash the ROM again.
If you can’t enter CWM, reflash using Flashtool or SEUS.
I’m still stuck!
Did you flashed the right version? Stock version on stock kernel and custom version on custom kernel…
Why is my Wifi not working?
Have you flashed the right kernel?
Try to forget Networks
Still not working? --> Full Wipe
My Phone crashes when trying to sign into google…
Have you flashed GAPPS?
Have you flashed the libsensor patch (when on alfs)?
Did you do a Full Wipe?
How can i mount my sdcard to PC? There is no button...
Just tap the Android
Can I update busybox on stock?
No. It’ll brick your Device
What is ADB/USB-Debugging?
If you don’t know what it is, you don’t need it
ADB (or Android Debug Bridge) allows you to communicate between your computer and your phone (for example to get logcats)
How do I get a logcat?
If you need to ask, that’s the right link for you: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1944776
What is GalleryDX
It’s a modded version of QuickPic
And how do I get rid of it?
Delete /system/app/GalleryDX.apk and /system/lib/qpicjni100.so
Why is my wifi not working?
On custom kernel:
Have you flashed the right kernel?
--> GDX v28 and earlier: LinuxDX or Alfs v08a GDX/Alfs v09c WLAN
--> GDX v29 and later: nAa 14 or Alfs v08a CM7/Alfs v09c CM7
Why is the Auto-Brightness not working?
If you’re on Alfs kernel, have you flashed the libsensor Patch?
Why does my LED not blink like it should?
Just delete the file "/system/lib/hw/lights.shakira.so" and reboot.
Now it should work correctly.
Shall I use Supercharger?
You can, but it’s not recommended. The ROM is already tweaked, to get the best overall performance. If you use it, it’s your own responsibility and do NOT post some “bugs” which only you have got, because of using supercharger
Will the app “xxx” be included in the next version?
To make you happy: maybe…
To be realistic: the probability it pretty low
How can I delete system apps?
You can delete system apps by using a root explorer to delete the desired app from /system/apps/
But BE CAREFUL what you delete! Delete on your own risk!
What’s KSM?
You can read the exact explanation here
Or in short: it gives a performance boost (because it makes processes share the “same pages” with other processes --> less CPU calculation) and reduces the RAM consumption (--> pages are shared, no multiple copies)
If you’ve got some questions to add to this list, just post a comment or send me a pm!
Thanks for your support and keeping the Thread clean!

Good:good: but there is already a similar thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1409113
Have you contact eagleeyetom?
I'm reading the word "official" so I guess you have, you could have taken the other thread and update it as Lucas is not that active here anymore and he have gave permissions for his threads.
There is no reason for two FAQ threads about gingerdx. So maybe mods should close the other one. Just saying its obviously up to mods.
And as a suggestion,you can add some links in order to make your thread more newbie friendly ,for example you can put a link for a more detailed unbricking guide.

thanks for the tip...but unluckly wifi setting isn't correlated to hotspot settings in locked status (standby). I found other users had same problems with other roms and phones, the solution they found is this app that allow to use cpu and wifi also when phone is in standby (locked)

[CM] Discussion and Help Thread

Well, how do i start?
We all are pretty much desperate to get Cyanogen mod to our lil' device aren't we? And now we do have super developer's who are working their back end's out to get our device listed in the official list.
There are lots of threads in our section as well as some other devices which are kind of similar to us,but some of these threads concentrate solely on developer interactions. But we all want to try it and sometimes we get stuck. And we tend to start asking questions there. Even though we think its important question (which is for us, but may be its not most of the times) and people who follow the thread with interest get bugged when stray post's like " my phone is stuck! " "I can't find the link" "which kernel works" "how can I get maximum battery" etc question posts surfaces.
So, i thought..why not create a thread like @Deadly's where people interact to help each other, experience CM and try out different things like themes and kernel! BUT away from the actual dev thread and help to keep that cluster free?? Please? Thanks!
Ask anything here related to CM and someone will guide you. And if you know the answer you can help too.. All are welcome to ask and answer.. lets not go too much off topic.. also discussion (related to CM) is fine.. And please! Do read FAQ questions before asking same questions.. if you ask that still.. we won't flame you.. we will just tell you to read it.. hope you all understand..
and oh btw,

[SIZE=+3]Frequently Asked Questions[/SIZE] - [SIZE=+2]Galaxy Y CM[/SIZE]​
[SIZE=+1]This a short list of frequently asked questions in this device forum and the answers often given as a response. It should serve as a starting point for gathering knowledge and finding solutions to many common problems.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=+1]Q1: Should I post in Development thread or here?[/SIZE]
Please do not post questions/concerns in the Development Section/threads. Post any queries/questions here. If only a bug/solution/idea is to be reported, you can post in development thread.​
[SIZE=+1]Q2: Do I need to be Rooted to install Cyanogen Mod?[/SIZE]
No. You can install this without rooting. Just follow the instructions in the thread op post. and you are good to go!​
[SIZE=+1]Q3: Is this an official CM ROM?[/SIZE]
No. Its unofficial.​
[SIZE=+1]Q4: How do I know if my phone is Rooted?[/SIZE]
You'll see 'Superuser' app in your App Menu.​
[SIZE=+1]Q5: How can I return to stock ROM?[/SIZE]
You can, by visiting this thread [Stock][ROM][Odin] Galaxy Y S5360 flashable firmware packages
Read the instructions and get back to stock.​
[SIZE=+1]Q6: What are download mode and recovery and how can I enter them?[/SIZE]
CWM recovery is where you flash ROMs, and other zip files. Use the volume keys to navigate, and the home key to select. Entered with the key combination of Vol Up + Home + Power. Not readily accessible if using a kernel without cwm integration. Download mode is where you flash via Odin and accessed by holding Volume Down+ Home+ Power buttons​
[SIZE=+1]Q7 I am looking for the best ROM, which should I choose?: [/SIZE]
ROMs come in two flavours. CM based ROMS and Samsung firmware based ROM's. While CyanogenMod is completely open source, several custom ROM come from it. These ROMs do not have Samsung Touchwiz and other samsung apps.
The choise is up to you. There is no such thing as the best rom, it is a subjective matter. Each have their own likings​
[SIZE=+1]Q8: What is this 'Flash Counter/ Custom Bin Counter' everybody is talking about?[/SIZE]
Your phone's custom bin counter is incremented when it detects custom firmwares. This is Samsung's way of knowing that you have modded your device. But thanks to the awesome people like Doky73 at XDA, there are ways around this. Refer to This Thread.​
[SIZE=+1]Q9: How to get a logcat/DMESG?[/SIZE]Please check here to get it via app or through PC Simple methods to get LOGCAT, DMESG​
[SIZE=+1]Q10: Am I required to backup my ROM before flashing anything else?[/SIZE]
No, you're not, but, it is definitely a good idea because if you don't do a backup and then something goes wrong, it means that you'll lose all your apps, data etc. It just saves a lot of hassle.​
[SIZE=+1]Q11: When I install the ROM I don't see apps like Gmail, Market, WHY?[/SIZE]
AOSP ROMS cannot included Gapps (Gmail, Market, Gtalk) included in one zip, Google Legal says its not supposed to be included. So, you can get it here​
[SIZE=+1]Q12: What are Known BUGS?[/SIZE]
Known bugs:
- Display: Sometimes there appear to be some glitches. This is known, and due to the usage of a released test binary. I'm currently working myself to reverse engineer the test binary released by BroadCom and the proprietary binary included in the GT-S5360 to come up with a hopefully fixed driver.
- Camera: Still has the white screen bug in the preview of what you're taking a picture of. This is not easily fixable, but will do my best. Movie recording is not yet possible as codecs still need to be included in my build.
- @PsychoGame​
[SIZE=+1]Q13: What Kernel should I use? Which one is the best? [/SIZE]Well, you should use psychogame's kernel for his CM builds to get official support. But most of the kernels support CM. Just got hrough the respective kernel OP post to know whether it supports or not. Eg. Merruk, Savie, whitexp, GNU, hells fusion all supports​
I'll add other questions whenever i can think of. or you can PM me if you think i should add a question which is quite common.

Hello. CM7 was one of the first custom ROMs to introduce the concept of "rendering". It rendered the screen in a certain color or shade to improve battery life or improve other aspects of performance.
You can sort this out by going into CM settings, display, rendering effect, and choosing none. This will return your phone back to normal. :good:
And about themes: don't install any with transperent elements. Transparency=more GPU processing and more of this means laggy phone.
Great thread. At least now we can focus on development related to CM on original thread.
Note: if anyone posts a unique bug that has not been resolved before, they are to be redirected to the original thread so that we can sort it out there.

Ya but I think we should stick to Psycho's kernel.. coz whatever improvements he makes.. it will obviously be in his own kernel.. but i think if someone still wants to use some other kernel i think the kernel developer should be contacted in that case!

We have a new thread for CM7 bugs now over at Q&A. You will have to post bugs there. This is going to be solely focused on development from now on.
Anyway, that is not a CM7 bug. Please do not post app specific bugs, as we will not be able to provide adequate support.
Contact the app developer and report the bug to him. I assure you that he will be more than happy to help you.
Mod edit: posts moved

@phsycoGame hey great job making cm 7 mire stable. Btw do you have a fix for charging animation while phone is off. it seems that there is no animation whole charging. hope you can fix it

For animation during charging you can copy the stock file called battery charging and when you install cyanogenmod go in system media copy and paste the files.

After you have successfully installed and booted up the CM rom, use any root explorer.. go to sys/media and paste the files from the stock rom and set the permissions and you are done
And reboot

Please feel free to share issues, questions and offer help
It is always best to thank a ROM OP, in lieu of simply posting "Thank you".
Please keep discussion focused, on the topic described in the OP

Additional Q&A/T Information​
Liquid's development threads are intended for developmental purposes only, which means that posts should be focused solely on bug reports (with logcats) and assistance to further improving the ROM. Development threads in general are by no means a 24/7 tech support service but everyone needs some help every now and then and that is the purpose of this thread.
Most of you should already be aware that Q&A threads such as this are intended to clear any off topic posts and questions from the development threads to the Q&A/T thread, thus keeping the development threads clutter-free and ON-topic.
Any discussions concerning battery life, custom kernels, 3rd party apps, mods, etc.. will be posted in this thread along with any other general questions or topics NOT pertaining to the development of the project itself.
Any and all questions are welcome here but you must ALWAYS remember to search as well as read the FAQ and the OP of the original thread prior to posting questions. You stand a better chance of finding the answer to your question yourself by performing these tasks and it's a great feeling.
Additionally, no one should answer to OT questions asked on the development threads but instead, when convenient, respond with something like "Please use the Q&A/T thread for this kind of question". Consecutive OT posts will be moved here to Q&A/T as required.
And finally, if someone in this thread helps you, please take a second to click their 'thanks' button! Someone has taken the time to assist you, and clicking thanks will make them feel appreciated so they come back the next day and help someone else! You get 8 thanks a day, don't be stingy with them! (I'm not even talking about me. I'm not looking for 'thanks'. Save them for others who directly answer your questions. They will deserve it.

5. Reboot and enjoy!
Q2 - Can I flash this on my (jfltexx/jflteatt/jfltevzw/jfltespr/jfltecan/jfltetmo/jflteusc/jflteworldcom/jflte10-10-220)?
A - Yep. See post #2 of the original thread
Q3 - Can i flash this on my i9500?
A - No, sorry.
Q4 - I'm having crazy issues with _____ after flashing the latest nightly. PS: I dirty-flashed.
A - See the wise words in @CPA Poke's signature.
Q5 - It wont flash with TWRP, how do i fix it

1. Factory reset*

Q6 - What are the known bugs on this ROM?
A - Currently, they include the following:
- Font Size picker does not work.

3. Hold on the CLock widget then drag it towards the X icon to remove it.
4. Tap on the + sign and select CLock from the list of widgets
5. Adjust the settings to your liking
6. Tap on the check mark at the upper right hand corner of the CLock menu to confirm/apply your changes.

What launcher are you using? Sometimes that has a tendency to mess with the stock wallpaper. I can't go searching for it at the moment because I use my own wallpaper and delete the liquidpaper folder.

Sorry guess it would be helpful if I made myself clear. I flashed the new build but I'm a KT fan and flashed the latest kernal. After doing so my wifi would not work, gapps kept force closing as well, there was one other but can't remember what it was.
Tried a clean flash at first, then tried a dirty flash over 03-13 both with the same result.

What recovery?
Nevermind read the comment above sounds like something is up, I'll try in a few, haven't had that happen (loose wifi) since I was messing around with radios... Did you try another build on the kernel or only the latest?

Seems to be an issue with loading frandom on boot up after flashing the latest 3/12 kT build..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=51094944
No issues on stock kernel though.

The camera doesn't seem nearly as good as TW camera. I tried changing the focus mode to infinity but it refuses to change from continuous. And pictures I take don't look as good as I'd expect. Any fix for this or another camera app that will take better pics?
FYI, running Philz recovery and the 3/13 version.

Try this app. I find it to be a good replacement to the AOSP camera.

Thanks, seems like a good alternative. But I've got a bigger problem now. Phone died and is refusing to charge while off. All I see is the battery icon with a frozen pinwheel. What do I do?
