[Q] Problems after installing anything from AOSP - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey everyone,
So lately I've been attempting to install AOSP source to my Nexus One and have been having weird problems. I've tried to install the latest Cyanogen from git and compiling a .zip file (no errors) however, when I boot up into the Cyanogen 7.1.0 i have weird problems with extreme lag, no wallpaper, weird flickering brightness problems with icons and such.
Same thing also happens from any of the normal AOSP. I tried a bleeding edge master AOSP and it installed using fastboot but had the same problems with slowdowns, weird brightness issues and such.
I have no idea why when installing any AOSP roms the device has wierd issues like this but when downloading the .zip directly from the cyanogen mod website or the normal .zip factory files the device works perfectly.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Camera.apk fc on cm7 stable

Soooo I've been using cm7 since it was still nightly 1 but I havent really had any wonk issues. However recently my camera, no longer works, the app loads fine but when you attempt to take a pic it force closes.... Heres where it gets strange apps that use the camera like google docs the camera works fine.... The other camera apps in the market work fine just not the stock camera app..
Has any one else had these issues?

Has this occurring since you flashed it, or did it develop afterward? I would try clearing camera data see what happens.
it was random and I tried wiping camera data but I also tried reloading from titanium still no fix
Then maybe you will need to either factory reset or do a clean install.
Similar story
My camera app randomly stopped working recently. Not upon an update, but randomly. (CM7 stable) I wiped the device, reflashed the ROM/Gapps, and it still is broken. When you tap to launch it, it just restarts the device (same if launched from another app, such as barcode scanner, etc.). I also tried deleting its data, to no avail.
Anybody figure this out?
What version is your radio/baseband (Settings -> About Phone -> Baseband)? We go off the two sets of numbers after the underscore "_". Something like 4.06 or 5.08...
Mine's 5.08.00.04
Try a more recent version of CM7. Much have been updated since RC1.
If still having problems a clean wipe usually does the trick.
Sorry, my bad. This problem started with CM7. I then clean wiped and tried CM7.1.0 RC1, and that's what's running right now (with no difference on the camera).
When you wiped the device, was this through ROM Manager? If so, you may want to try a system-only wipe. Under clockworkmod you can do it in the mounts and storage menu. If you are running amon_ra, you will need to use a flashable zip that will wipe it for you. Temasek has one somewhere in here http://mediafire.com/temasek
Then reinstall CM and gapps. This won't cause any data loss.
I had wiped it from ROM Manager, so I followed your instructions (I am running clockworkmod). Unfortunately, that didn't change anything.
I been running CM7 stable for two weeks and that is one complain I have the picture quality sucks compare to stock android, I have to play with the contrast,saturation and sharpness every time to take a decent picture. As Far as the Camera bugging out on me I don't have any issues.
Did anyone manage to fix this problem WITHOUT taking it to the service centre?
For some reason, I still believe this is a software issue and not a hardware one.
Anybody?
Yeah, my feeling is it has to be software too, but I can't for the life of me seem to solve it. Anybody else have this issue??

ICS ?'s about Buggy Behavior

I'm been playing with ICS Roms on my captivate for the past few days (Team ICSSGS and Dark Knight ICS) and for a while, everything works perfectly. Installs fine, smooth, but after a while of customizing and installing apps, the phone starts going to hell.
I start to get all these force closes, app's don't open and then when I reboot the phone, it just doesn't go past the boot animation. (remember this is post install) I've wiped user data/installed other roms and I'm still having the problem.
I'm also experiencing these bugs which may or may not be related:
- Market/Play Store only allows me to download one app after a time. If I try to install more than one, I get a "Invalid package file" error.
- I get a message in the notification area that says I have low space (which isn't true)
- Also, when I was playing Modern Combat 2, all of these things in the background started force closing. Some were apps (widgets, gtalk, etc.), most others were background processes.
I understand this all alpha/beta builds, so bugs should happen, but I haven't seen anyone else report it. (unless I missed it....went through more than 50 pages)
Is this normal, or am I doing something wrong.
FYI, was coming from Serendipity Froyo Rom. I used GB bootloaders from here:

It seems you are restoring alot of apps. If you restore data it could cause funky behavior, specially if it's froyo data. If it isn't data then few apps are causing you issue.

I'm just installing apps from the Android Market....the last time I only had a few installed and still the same problem.
Don't install the game you mentioned. And try again from fresh. I've used ICSSGS, CM9 and many flavors of AOKP never had any issues.

This happened to me earlier. Uninstall/move apps to sd until the low space notification goes away. After this, reboot. Then, everything should work fine.

[Q] anybody else having issues on milaqs cm11 build?

I recently upgraded to milaqs 4.4 rom and have been plagued with issues since then, some of which include:
no camera
sleep of death (seems to only happen when using Google now launcher, may occur with other custom launchers)
random reboots, mostly when in sleep
google sync errors
getting stuck in a reboot
certain apps like youtube stop working properly after some time
time resets to jan 1st 1970 on every reboot
wallpaper and saved wifi networks reset seamingly at random when rebooting
playstore crashes when trying to install apps often
when restoring and redownloading apps, sometimes apps get stuck on "installing" until rebooting
can mount legacy storage but cannot open, transfer or delete items from it
sliver about 2 pixels wide on right side of screen when in landscape unless changing dpi to 155
This is running on the feb 27th nightly build
Is anybody else having similar issues?
Netflix
Hi for me this is a very stable build. the best I've tried so far.
The only Problems I have are:
No Camera ( I don't use it so not a big deal)
I do get the installing apps issue sometimes but hasn't happen in a week.
Netflix was broken. But I found away to get it working. after searching the web found someone who said to download the older 2.4 or 2.4.1 and it will work. I downloaded it. This worked. Now I have a working Netflix app.
It was quite a hassle to find the 2.4.1 version. Don't forget to turn off auto updates for the apps or it will install the lastet Netflix app which doesn't work for kitkat yet.
The kitkat 4.4.2 builds are new and I expect them to be buggy. But I'm really thankful that they are underdevelopment. They are really really good. The Milaq build in particular is great. I'm now using this for my day to day use. I don't really have to many complaints with it. I'm running the latests build Mar 02 nightly build.
sleep of death
Well I had the sleep of death on the Mar 2 build of CM11 Milaq. This is only the second time its happen to me since I installed this build about 3 weeks ago. had to press the power and the home button to re-boot. its works fine now. will keep you posted

Tried it and cm10.2 back at Christmas, but some important - to me - things were not working - Bluetooth, camera, ... devs have since worked their magic... jcsullins 5/4 build seems v good - e.g. best Skype stability I have ever had.

Everything H/W is working for me on CM11 from milaq
:good: Everything hardware and application is working quite nicely and stable too!
Where I am having some issues is with ROOT access.
For example trying to create the moboot.default file with any of the valid file managers is not working. I have had to use a recovery file to actually get the file created with the default boot image I wanted.
Besides that it is running quite nicely and stable.
Mind you I have done a clean install from scratch (which is usually recommended) since I was running CM10.1 prior to migrating to CM11.
I believe the issue above is based on some modifications GOOGLE has implemented, but even the available fixes are not working for me to gain access to the SD CARD partitions.
A big thank you to milaq for this great still evolving ROM build.

I think you do. I tried it once in cwm and it failed, it could also have been a different issue but it works fine with the boot.img of the zip. Just keep in mind to store the zip on the internal storage before you flash the kernel and after wiping it.and that the recovery menu is very dim, you should avoid bright conditions.
Video or pictures
I would like to see how the cyanogenmod works on the Z3 Compact. Could you send me a video or some pictures?
Thanks!

My Bluetooth headset was acting up when i had the built in equalizer (AudioFx) turned on , try to turn it off and see if it helps.
I also installed viper4android instead which is way better.
Thanks, this worked for me

I've just installed with cyano recovery, everything was fine..
I want to report that somethimes the mic recorder loss some seconds while i'm using it..i've just updated now the nightly
need to test it again
anyway i'm really happy, the phone for me is now really faster than the stock rom.
Camera button
Anyone figure out how to remap the camera button yet?
So i'm kind of a noob here I guess but I thought to install this one would need to have their device rooted (like I had) and I have it on my device working perfectly, the only problem is the phone is telling me that it is not rooted and thus not letting me use titanium backup and greenify etc.
Is it just me, or is the Auto Updater not rebooting to recovery after downloading the cm-12-20150214-NIGHTLY-z3c -
I did extract and ABD'flashed the boot.img
And theres still an issue with the LED brightness and audio engine wakeup ( Sound seems dim at first, and sometimes notification audio is skipped, almost like it is in hibernation and cant always get out of it ) , cant seem to find it in the fixlog or changelog either
I just got cm12 setup on my galaxy tab 8.4, the only issue i notice thus far is that im finding it impossible to set a different wallpaper on my lockscreen from my gallery pics... If i want to use one of my personal backgrounds i have to use the same as my homescreen. The only way to change just the lockscreen background is to pick one from a theme i downloaded but that option sucks because i never use theme backgrounds... Anyone have a workaround or is that something well have to wait on in another nightly? I was able to do this easily in cm11, just had to go to lockscreen in settings and themes and i could pick it there

Go to Settings, Developer Options, then a few settings from the top you will see "Root access", click it and choose "Apps and ADB" or just "Apps only" (if you don't use ADB).
After root access is enabled you can install SuperSU from the Play Store (or just use the CM root access if you don't want SuperSU).....
Thanks that worked perfectly!
Another problem though (or else me just being silly and overlooking something simple) that when I boot to recovery it brings up the Cyanogenmod Recovery and there is no option to Backup my files. The only options I have are to wipe everything or reboot.

When you flash boot.img from the nightly .zip file you get the CM Recovery. You are correct in that there is no backup option. Use Titanium or some other app to back up your stuff. You can also use a different recovery but you may run into a different problem where the phone identifies itself as "aries" and won't flash the ROM. The CM Recovery takes care of that problem.
Anyone found a fix to the dim notification led issue? I think its related to the CM recovery. Anyone that can confirm this issue aswell?
I have a tab pro 8.4 running cm12 latest nightlies and i cant get adblock plus to work on it. Ive tried everything. It ran beautifully on cm 11 but on cm12 it FCs either right after u launch it or sometimes i can almost get done downloading the site block list. I have the wifi only version of the sm-t320 if that helps. Any ideas anyone? Either a way to fix it or an alternative app?

A couple of issues I've run into is sometimes bluetooth audio gets sped-up so my music sounds like it is playing a 2x speed (Google play music) and I'm unable to activate any accessibility services (I can get into the cancel or ok screen but can't click ok). Anybody else have these or know a workaround?

Nook HD+ app issues, reboots, now stuck at boot. Help.

I had the Nook HD+ running CyanogenMod for a few years.
I changed nothing, but lately it stopped working, complaining about Trebuchet, so I changed the launcher and it worked again, but giving occasional errors about an app not starting.
In the last few days it also started sporadically rebooting itself. Plunging it in did not seem to change anything. Lowering the max CPU speed from 1.5GHz to 1.1 did not help.
Now, it would not start at all – it would always get stuck at the circling CyanogenMod boot screen. It would still shut down using a long press.
I can start the rescue fine, with no unwanted reboots.
I do have a small amount of data there that I would like to be able to take out, if possible.
I don't care for any specific OS version/mod.
What do you think is the cause of this issue?
How can I fix this? Can I get the Data out?
Btw, in the years it was working, it did have an issue of sometimes restarting instead of shutting down.
I never knew if it was a fault with my device or the with latest CM.

Hi Kov8.
I was running CM 11.1 for ovation and experienced the same thing. My solution was to install a newer version.
To save your data, set up an SD card (be sure you have enough extra room for your data) with the TWRP 3.0.1-0 version here:
https://notredame.app.box.com/s/26a4bygh9vbaw7jjq08xr5evomvaw5ww/folder/3332706778
Load TWRP and look for the File Manager. I think it's under "Advanced." You can use that to copy or move your data to the SD card.
After that, consider upgrading to AOSP or LNOS. I can install AOSP without much difficulty, but LNOS doesn't go well. More on that in a later post.
If you need more detailed information, look at this post and download the pdf at the end of the first post:

Yes. I've been reading that all the recent ROMs do that.
The solution is to do a standard shutdown followed by a hard shutdown (by holding the power button for 8 seconds).
I suspect that going straight for the hard shutdown caused some file system errors that made installing new ROMs very difficult.
I'm OK now, though.
Thanks for the detailed reply! I will try.

That's funny. I just downloaded two copies from that link.
For version 3.2.1-0, it sounds like you're looking at the version from the team win website. I haven't tested that one thoroughly, but I have tried out their version 3.1.1-0. It works pretty well. It gave me some minor error messages here and there, but if I just repeated what resulted in the error, it generally went through on the second attempt without an error.
The link worked for me later. I managed to change to TWRP 3.0.1-0 only after removing the version identifier from the zip file. I later easily upgraded TWRP to the newest.
I also upgraded to the latest AOSP from the same source, without deleting, as I couldn't get the data from one app. I then installed ARM 7.1 pico gapps. Some apps kept crashing, but removing and reinstalling seems to have fixed that.
The only problem, is that now shut down never works, and restart always takes me to recovery. So I just hard shutdown there.

Mind telling how you managed to update twrp from 3.0 1 to the latest? I successfully installed 3.0.1 to my nook hd+, then flashed 3.2.1 img to recovery, now the device stuck at boot.
I simply downloaded to img file from their website (for ovation, my device), placed on the micro-sd, and installed it from TWRP itself. As simple as that.
Are you sure that you got the correct version for your device?
I also always verify the integrity of roms after writing them to a card. I've seen bad cards.
