Rogers V20C disapearing features - LG Thrill 4G

Hi all. A few days ago i awoke to my phone acting all sorts of strange. The 3D button no longer took photos when pushed in camera mode, instead, it switched to 3d mode. Just like in froyo.
It also launched the 3d space app when pushed outside of the camera.
The pull down menu now has the airplane mode option. And i can no longer access 2g/EDGE only mode.
Happened randomly at first, maybe after deleting a system app.
I flashed a backup and it was gone until he next reboot.
I then reflashed V20C, installed CWM, and BAM those features went crazy again.
Flashed V20C again. No CWM.
Everything is fine until i add the beats audio files and change permissions. After that restart it happened again.
Has this happened to anyone else? Not too sure what to do here, any help is appreciated!

I'm o n v20c I've never had that happen but my 3d button has always gone to the 3d area

Weird. My wife has the same phone, rooted, but nothing else added. Her 3d button acts as a shutter button.
I changed my flex.XML to country code USA instead of US and I now have access to 2g mode, also H is showing up with 4 bars instead of the one I got on H+ with US set as country code
I can live with the airplane mode option on the pull down menu, I actually prefer it. I just need to figure out how to remap the 3d button and I'll be a happy camper

Before it changed, the 3d area for me wouldn't pop up unless I did a long press on the 3d button. Hitting it once did nothing, which I thought was awesome because it would never pop up by mistake.

So it looks like this only happens when I change flex.XML to this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Flexinfo>
<Flexinfo
FLEX_COUNTRY_CODE="US"
FLEX_OPERATOR_CODE="ATT"
FLEX_MCC_CODE="310"
FLEX_MNC_CODE="410"
FLEX_REGION_CODE="0"
FLEX_SIMLOCK_ON="0"
FLEX_MODEL_CODE="0" />
</Flexinfo>
If I change the country code I can access 3g and edge networks and my 3d button works as a shutter button.
If someone can post screenshots of their flex.XML and their APN settings maybe I can see what I'm doing wrong.

I don't have a copy of the AT&T flex.xml but I can tell you that on the 20c rim Roggers has modfilied the Flexprovider.apk as well, this could be your issue. They have also linked all this into other modiflied apk's just to be nice

Messed up gallery between all roms

I've been messing with my Captivate a lot for the past few weeks, rooted and flashed once I got sick of waiting for an update. I've tried most of the major roms out there and am having a great time learning about it all.
I have a problem and would appreciate some advice on the simplest way to solve it. Whenever I try to enter the image gallery, I get a black screen for a few seconds, then it vibrates a few times and kicks back to the home screen and gives me a failure notification. It does this regardless of what rom I'm running so I'm assuming it has something to do with the file structure on the card? If I data reset, will this fix it?
I looked around but didn't see an apparent answer for this specific issue. Thanks
Try this, download sgs tools from market. Goto uodate stock apps select gallery

Hmmm, I downloaded it and it doesn't seem to do that much. I don't see any options like that for sure. What is that program supposed to do?
After I posted I realized the app I referenced is not on the market.
Have you tried deleting app data
settings, applications, manage, all, gallery, delete data

wow, thanks! That did it. I just upgraded the stock app and it's fine now. This app looks really useful, what are some of its other uses?
Secret codes gets you into a bunch of useful things
like lbs test mode for gps
the updated gallery you installed is also supposed to help battery somehow.
I do not use it all too much though, but I keep it around

[APP] Genius Button for CM7

For those people that enjoy the use of the Genius button and Dragon Dictation.
This is the Genius button app that came stock with Espresso Froyo put into a flashable zip. It was taken from the Espresso Sense Rom and has been confirmed working on CM7. I have also included the app called Button Shortcut (free on market) in the zip to make things easier. It can be used to open any app using the Genius Button / longpress search button. The Genius app should also work on HTC Froyo Roms too. Much thanks to the CM team for making CM7 compatable with these apps.
This needs to be flashed/installed from ClockworkMod Recovery. Install it just
like you would flash a rom. You should not need to wipe anything first.
Please hit the "Thanks" button if you like this.

Yes it actually works very well. There is a setting so it doesn't have to verify your contacts now. You can get to it by pressing the button and when it asks you to speak you can hit the menu button.
I'll give it a whirl since vlingo hasnt been working for me on cm7

Works like a charm.
EDIT: LOVING being able to put the genius app on the genius button again. Stuck Navigation onto my camera longpress . MANY thanks for this!
not nearly as fast as vlingo, but has gotten way faster from the 2.1 version. thx bud
A couple of hours after flashing this I begin to have problems with my market and maps. I restored my backup and it works fine. I have tried this on several builds and have the same problem. I use the same builds without it and everything works great. Anyone else having a problem with it? Hope I can get it to work. I want the genius button back. Thanks for posting this.

What kind of problems are you having? I haven't had any issues at all. This should have absolutely no effect on your market. What type of wipe have you done? The slide isn't my primary but I going to sim it up and run it for a bit see if I can help.
I wouldn't think it would cause a problem either. It's the only change I made though. I do a full wipe between each build I try. I have tried on build 19, 21, 23, all with full wipe. On build 19 my market wouldn't download anything. My maps also started force closing. I cleared data and flashed gapps again. Still didn't work. I restored backup and it was fine. On build 21 and 23 my maps worked but my market would not open. It would start to open but close itself again. It doesn't happen right away. It starts several hours later. I have tried each build without and no problems. I do appreciate you posting this though cause at least I can try to get it working. Thanks for trying to figure it out.

Private message me. I have a few things for you to try.
This setup gives me absolutely no problems on my CM-6.1.1, Though there have been problems with the market on CM-7 builds 19 - 23 and I haven't tested this on CM7 due to the variation of people having infrequent problems lately.
One thing I have done though was removed the 'flashable' aspect of it and simply added it to the main ROM being sure to include the /lib folder as well. Works great!
Works on CM 6.1.1
Had to download button shortcut from market. But after I did that and configured it-all is well. And yes it's a bit faster than it was on stock 2.1.

It should have automatically installed it for you. Are you sure it didn't?
This is working great now! I really appreciate having my Genius Button back. Thanks go out to Drew for pointing me in the right direction. Thanks again bro!

Can you get the driving mode to work as on the stock ROM? I flashed it twice and ran fix permissions but when i say driving mode on it responds with hand free is on, but no icon on status bar and wont announce caller or announce theres a new text. Voice dialing, composing text and web search work though. I was just hoping for the driving mode to work.
This is awesome!
I got my search button and a working Genius Button at the same time on my favorite rom (3rdSense)....sweet!!!!

Hope this is useful ......how to access program menu

Flashed my GT last night, everything worked except my 3g, applied a backup, returned to stock, etc. Still no 3g.
Called vzw tech, and at some point I stated that it'd be nice to get into the program menu like I can on my DX, but that I don't have a phone dialer to do so.
This is what tech told me.
Open the Samsung memo app
Click your search button
Enter **772
Then enter 000000, hit enter
You are now in program menu
I can't see anything as I got an error due to my modem, however, wanted to share this, not sure if this is known.

Captivate button problems

Hi I just loaded cm7 and I messed around in the settings a bit (i dont remember changing anything special)and now the home and search buttons don't register........ like they vibrate and do the usual thing but the phone doesn't do anything the home button even when I hold it doesn't vibrate a second time. Please help.

You might want to get the Home Switcher app from the market (free). It will let you switch between launchers, and might be able to tell you what is going on with the home button.

Might be the kernel, I went from miui 1.5.27 to 1.6.3 and the orientation was all whack. I flashed a new kernel and it was all well afterwards, had the same problem when updating cm7 once

3D Button remap

I might be the only one that thinks the button is worthless, but if anyone would like to remap it to the camera let me know and I'll write up the instructions on how to change it.
This will disable the option to switch between 2D and 3D when looking at pictures or in the middle of games but if your like me I dont have time to play games or mess with 3D pictures, and yes that makes the phone no different that any of the others but I just like the phone it's self.
steps
1. Download Root Explorer
2. Navigate to /system/usr/keylayout
3. Top of app select mount R/W
4. long click on omap-keypad.kl till menu pops up
5. select open in text editor
6. scroll all the way to the bottom to key 249
7. Edit 3D_HOT_KEY to CAMERA
8. Back out of text editor and select mount R/O in top of app
9. Back out of Root Explorer
10.Reboot
This will now map the 3D button to open the camera insted of something you may never use.
Go back to stock.
1. Navigate back to /system/usr/keylayout
2. Mount R/W
3. Only do this if you have the omap-keypad.kl.bak this is a backup of the original file
4. Delete the modified omap-keypad.kl
5. Rename omap-keypad.kl.bak to omap-keypad.kl
6. Back out and restart.
There you go.

Im interested!
Cool, I may do this, I didn't know it actually turned 3d on / off while in a 3D picture or in the camera.
I hate it when I accidentally hit it.
Might be a dumb question but it just disables the ability to suddenly turn on the 3D in the middle of something but doesn't actually disable the 3D capabilities? If so, I'm very interested.
The remap works. How ever when I changed it back to 3D_HOT_KEY the 3D key does nothing.

Instead of making it open the camera could it be programmed to act as a shutter button for the camera to take pictures?
No it doesn't disable 3D just changes what the button does.

It makes my four bottom buttons light up as if it's registering that something is supposed to happen. But nothing happens. Strange. I looked back and the text still says CAMERA.
I don't know if this makes a difference or not but under the qwerty.kl it says 3D_HOT_KEY is still at key 249. The ompa-keypad.kl and the omap-keyboard.kl.bak show key 249 as a camera.
When I set it to camera it worked, It took a second to launch after reboot. But what's strange is when I set it back and rebooted. I get nothing. Just the navigation keyslight up but no 3D app. I don't wanna reset my device just to get the button working again with the 3D.
