Do I have to wipe/factory reset if I'm going update to this rom from previous CM7.1 Geno?

Without wipe it did not work for me so you should do it.

You were right, wipe is a necessity

I have crash on launch (com.android.phone), unable to use phone, I'm only one with this problem?

Yes, that is why i came back to CM7-07-01-2012.

i cant test it after full wipe fc.it must be a trick.if somebody had a success it will be good to show to others the way

yes, com.android.phone all time stops when try to call... whait for fix

You are lucky that you can run your phone, I can't pass pin confirmation process because of (com.android.phone) crash It's obvious that we need fix.
P. S. I have talked with one of the developers, they don't have their 8800 Pro's anymore so they can't check their new builds for bugs. Geno don't have much time for this, hope that it will be fixed in near future It's sad that the best developers don't have anymore that phones for witch been working, logical that they are not interested in this device like before.

hi all,
these are 5 easy steps how i got it working on my phone:
before you start backup all your data (phonebook etc) because this is a clean install and everything will be wiped!
1) go to recovery menu. do a factory reset/data wipe. goto mounts & storage and format system. wipe dalvik cache (i don't know if this is necesary).
2) install the update-cm-7.2.0-RC0-u8800pro-Geno-120202.zip from sd card. restart phone.
3) install root explorer or similar. replace phone.apk with older version (i replaced with phone.apk from 20120107-cm-7.1.0-u8800pro-Geno-en.zip). you will get an FC. reboot your phone.
4) change permissions in root explorer for the phone.apk like this: owner->read/write, group->read, other->read.
5) reboot phone and enjoy
btw thanks geno!
i think you can replace the phone.apk with older version in the update-cm-7.2.0-RC0-u8800pro-Geno-120202.zip before flashing. it is much easier.

the fixed Phone.apk（you need this one better than old version）
http://sourceforge.net/projects/gen...C0-u8800pro-Geno-120202-en-fixed.zip/download

my first custom ROM. it looks great!
only a very little bug that I noticed: here in Italy we don't have any 4G network (only HSDPA 3,5G), but the icon in notification area tells "4G".
Really not a real bug, anyway

is the phone.apk in the fixed version any different than the older version?

New version with fix works ok with no bugs till now Little notice that I didn't find market application on this rom so I had to install it manually.

OK
Yeah i came from last november cyano rom and it's all perfectly functional! Only one thing, yesterday accelerometer didn't work, and photocamera too, but a simple restart and now all good!
Good work!
P.S. I have installed two times this rom because first one any opening keyboard throw an exception.

Althoguh it is written that fm doesn't work, could you try to install spirit fm app and see what happen?
Thx!

Cant connect to camera

Today I got a G2 and was really excited.
I unpacked it and play around with it a little and after a while I recognized that the camera wasn't working correctly.
I thought it might depents on ths firmware and installed an update to 4.4.2 trough LG Software Suite.
While I was on 4.2.2 there was no message "cant connect to camera" but the screen left black.
Now, after I updated to 4.4.2 trough LG Software Suite, everytime I open the Camera, there is the message that says "cant connect to camera"
I also trie to delete the appdata of the camera in settings under 4.2.2 and 4.4.2! But I didn't helped.
I factory resetted the device while beeing on 4.2.2 but the problem was still there.
I didnt factory resetted unter 4.4.2 yet, but I guess this wouldn't change anything.
Phone-Info:
Model: LG-D802
Software: D80220c-260-06
Radio: M8974A-AAAANAZM-1.0.190084
Android-Version: 4.4.2
So it should be a branding free, simlock free, international device, right?
I hope you can help me rather soon!
I looked in the drawer and there are three apps which shouldnt be there: Audioteka, Nawigacja Play & IKO which all seems to be polish.
So i have a polish Firmware now? Can this might be the fault?

Try to flash maybe custom roms and see if it still exists, if the screen stayed black on 4.2.2 then the camera is maybe defect. You can try to logcat it to see or some file doesn't load or the camera just doesnt want to load. I think that the camera might be defect since the problem came on android 4.2.2 and on 4.4.2. That the software is polish doesn't really matter as far as I know.
Im sorry for you that you bought your phone for 220Euro and that then your phone's camera doesn't work then. I wish you luck on the journey to find out the problem.:crying:

I accidently removed the USB cable while the phone was updating via the LG PC Suite and now my phone only shows the LG logo short, befor it gets a blank screen and every partition is shown in the windows explorer and has to be formatted

I also saw your post in the thread about that partitioning fixing. But can you try to use another usb cable maybe? And also dont format the partitions in windows. If they work properly on windows and disconnect ubuntu then you can try to maybe use some virtual ubuntu environment like on virtualbox and do it there.
Now you probably know not to disconnect the usb cable when updating, keep distance from the cable while doing those things xd. I also did that on my Optimus 2X accidently but luckily that device was unbrickable with nvflash.

Its odd that they always get randomly disconnected in Ubuntu, you could see or cygwin supports all the things you have to do in the guide or you need to also find an different linux os. Did you maybe accidently formatted one of those partitions?

In case of Ativ S IMEI is on one of MODEM_FS partitions. And not on DPP. It should be bug in reading IMEI, but IMEI itself should be ok.

[Question for MM users] Uninstalling Facebook makes your Auto rotation stop working?

*** ONLY DO THIS FOR TESTING PURPOSE ***​
Those who have got the MM update, could you please check whether uninstalling Facebook app via Titanium makes your auto rotation to stop working? Some say it doesn't, some say it does.
I took a screen record while uninstalling it, make sure you are doing the exact same steps. For the record, uninstalling ONLY the apk is enough to mess it up, I still went on and removed the other Facebook system stuffs out of frustration.
Please comment.

I always uninstall Facebook & "company" and other trash again, and never had problems with rotation on kitkat , lollipop and marshmallow.

Have you solve it?

It seems that is true, and after flashing the stock rom and uninstalling lot of bloatware (except all the facebook stuff) auto rotation works now.

Yes, by re-flashing the stock ROM[emoji23]And then not touching those Facebook related craps.
PS:
@HDxDaniel
Could you tell me whether you have uninstalled any of these apps? Because I don't use these! S Voice isn't listed as it's a system app, I don't use that either.

I uninstalled most of those apps except Facebook, WhatsApp, Instagram, Play newsletter and maybe another app too.

I noticed one thing today, if you use an app like System App Remover, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jumobile.manager.systemapp&hl=en
, then uninstall Facebook and other craps, then the rotation works normally. So it could be Titanium doing something crazy here, don't know!

I have the same problem (or I think so), I removed Facebook and Instagram applications with titanium backup and noticed my screen can't auto-rotate now
Anyone can upload the libgnustl_shared.so file ? I don't feel like flashing the whole system file again...
Thanks

After flashing the zip from the first post of this thread, the screen rotation is working again, seems like removing Samsung hub with titanium backup messed things

It looks like only reflashing the stock FW will help
I had the same problem tried every possible solution in this forums none worked
Maybe titanium or i flashed ios emoji for google keyboard!! But that never happened when was on Lollipop!! Now back to Odin
lol

Somebody, give this man a medal! Saved my butt reflashing ROM again. Just copy to system/lib change permission to rw-r--r-- and reboot. You think it's caused by Titanium Backup? In that case? We should notify them.

yeah..... I got this too 2 days ago.
I uninstall some bloatware, including facebook with titanium backup.
then I realize that screen rotation doent work anymore.
I check the gyro, gravity, accel sensor. all works fine, but screen rotation wont work.
So I restore my backup ROM, and everything is fine again.
and yeah.... I just tried uninstalling facebook again, but this time I use System App Remover https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jumobile.manager.systemapp&hl=en
auto rotation is still works.

Same here... I've done some testing removing bloatware and it's Titanium Backup's fault... I had to reflash the custom rom I'm using several times to reach this conclusion...

I had the same problem, & for whatever reason that version of the file failed to work for me. I had success with this one, following the same steps. https://www.4shared.com/file/ivpHIjBNce/libgnustl_shared.html

Out of curiosity, where did you get that file from?
I've just made a flashable zip with my working libgnustl_shared.so so I can replicate the issue later on and see if this solution works for me...

I downloaded this rom, extracted the zip, & copy pasted libgnustl to system/lib & changed permissions. Hopefully the individual upload will save someone else 1.49gb
The other version of libgnustl that was posted here didn't work for me, I tried it 3-4 times. My phone is a N910T.
It was a happy accident- I was planning on following someone else's success of extracting system.img.ext4 & flashing that file with skip soft, or more likely reverting to stock before I thought 'what if...'
A big thank you to everyone who shared the info to finding a solution

After oreo screen flashes white and minimised, battery errors

I am on stock 8.0 after the update during a call the phone buzzed and made a loud sound like a siren. After the crash I used it and got message of abnormal restart. I decided to hard reset it. The phone buzzed for about 30 seconds at least and then booted giving me an error uDove to send to HTC. I sent the error and updated all apps to set up.
1. Since then whenever I wake up the phone with the fingerprint or open an app the current window goes white and gets minimised as an app would do. Or as if a pop up goes on and gets closed by an adblock (in desktop).
2. I noticed also lags in performance and battery drain.
All my apps are basic and from play store (major publishers and no games at all) With HTC support I used the phone in Safe mode and no problems where observed. I thought it was htc sense update that was causing the issues however it is not the case. I am lost and do not know what to do. The phone is annoying to use and 4 hard and soft resets did not improve anything.
I ran every check with the HTC utility and nothing significant was reported (all passed ok), During the following hardresets the bootloader gives error
{

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

Looks like partitions map is damaged (hard to read the photo). My educated guess is that you either get a RUU from HTC and let the phone recover everything fresh or unlock boot loader and install custom ROM.
Can you use superuser rights via adb in the HTC recovery mode?

It reads:
handle_cota_install: install cwpkg to /cache/cota/cwpkg.zip
handle_cota_install: install cwprop to /cache/cota/cw.prop
E:can't open /sys/class/power_supply/battery/capacity
handle_cota_install: can't mount /sdcard
E:can't open /sys/class/power_supply/battery/capacity
Could you please tell me what is RUU and how to obtain it? My phone model is this one https://photos.app.goo.gl/tgzt2ebSj1fdt5o29
I can read if I know what I am looking for thank you. HTC has not been very helpful online

HTC is sadly ignoring/abandon the U Ultra. Pity.
NVM
RUU is ROM Update Utility - it is an HTC format for update packages. Sadly, Oreo hasn't been made available by HTC.
Since (presuming) you are still under warranty (no unlocked bootloader etc.) I advise to hit the HTC service center and tell them that their OTA went wrong.
Alternatively I could only think of unlocking the bootloader and doing the fix yourself.

Whitch CID do You have? Is it single sim or dual?

I as an update the phone is getting worse the more I use it. I screen blacks out for few seconds and then back to normal. Something like voltage issues. If anyone knows the UK repair service I would appreciate the details. They are not responding e-mails and chat is not helpful at all.
It is bought with UK plug so I assume it is the ones in UK?

So. You have nothing to lose. Try to copy OTA to SD card. Clear Cache and Apply update from SD Card. Maybe it Will help...

Edit:
Or downgrade to Nougat, then try with OTA again.

Hello everyone, after buying a new device (huawei) and after 4 visits to the repair center my phone seems to be replaced with another one. unfortunately the battery was changed and it is worse than ever (after a hard reset it says it was last fully charged 223days ago.
I solved the problem by doing a hard reset and not updating the google app. My last reported version (installed by HTC) is 7.17.28.21.arm64 (my device is HTC U ULTRA but same problem). After this everything else runs smoothly etc.
I believe it relates to new features of the app that change completely how it manages the device
• Use voice commands while navigating – even when your device has no connection. Try saying "cancel my navigation" "what's my ETA?" or "what's my next turn?"
• Weak connection? If your search fails, the Google app will deliver you results once you regain connection.
• Troubleshoot connectivity issues with more helpful error cards when your search fails because your device is offline
• New customization options available for cards in your feed
