The APN is saved in the settings. And I did flash the zip-file. After that I adjust the file inside the init.d map with the script manager. But without wifi toggled on, the status bar doesn't show any signal on the signal bars, and therefore also nog 3g. Got any solution for that?
Thanks!

I've noticed that my market downloading capability just stops working randomly. only thing that resolves it is a factory reset. I've tried clearing market cache and data but that only worked once.
Any thoughts?

Hi
I have installed the ICS rom and seem to be in a pickle. Everything works besides the phone i.e I can make or receive calls. Wifi works etc. Any suggestions. Also how do I now go back to gingerbread as Odin no longer works due to no usb support.
Thanks in advance

Take it to the official thread, as it's a development related question.
My question: is this anywhere near stable enough to even bother flashing right now?

[Q] Apps don't want to download over 3g

Hey Guys
I'm currently running RocketRom 11, but I'm sure I've had this problem for a while.
I cant seem to download / install apps over 3g (Or edge ect) but things download fine over Wifi - even though the "Update over Wi-Fi only" box is UNchecked.
Any idea why or what I can do get around this?

Try reinstalling just gapps.

I was really looking forward to this when I saw this post because I'm having some issues with PACMAN Rom.. tried AOKP but also issues..
So when I saw this I jumped all over it.
No problems installing, but I can't get connected to the network properly.
Internet (APN) is not working at all, can configure but doesn't connect. And other things are acting weird making me think something is badly configured on my end.. commands like *105# to check how much money I have available for calls doesn't work, it makes a phonecall instead.
Any ideas?
I'm a total newbie on these things sorry, only got my Razr M a couple of weeks ago and it's the first phone that I unlock the bootloader to try other roms. My guess is that it's not connecting properly to the network.
I'm in Bolivia at the moment, what network type should I choose? GSM ? There's to LTE here, but there's HSPDA (3.5g, right? they call it 4g here though)
When I select GSM and I look for networks it lists them, but can't connect. When I select GSM/WCDMA and reboot the phone, it apears as connected to the network. Can make calls, can't sms and can't connect to internet, also the USSD codes to check how much $$$ is left on my account don't work.
Any ideas?

If you use GSM network - you must flash also GSM-fix for it - then you can edit APN.
After flash GSM-fix leave network choosing for ROM - it will choose correct network type
I attach GSM-fix for CM10.1 - it works correct with Liquid
P.S. But try clean install - all wipes, then flash ROM / GAPPS / GSM-fix

Woop
Thank You so Much! Gonna try it right away!
Again sorry for the newbness... this is all new to me. I've been a lurker reading and never posting anything and always managed to work out my little doubts, but all this with roms is totally new grounds for me.
I couldn't acess APN settings on AOKP Rom neither, is it for the same reason?
Also.. I've had a couple of issues with PACMAN Rom, crashing and rebooting when playing music using a bluetooth speaker, is that a general issue with all roms not based on motorola kernel?

1. AOKP & PACMAN have GSM-fix too (but you can use attached - it works)
2. BT is fixed now (I did not try, but I was read, that it`s fixed)
3. All this ROMs have own kernel - AOSP kernel. You can also use custom kernels - from Arrghh or Bytecode
P.S. Liquid have one issue - FC of system.ui . But it`s not for all - some people have no this..

Thanks m8!
Installed, applied fix and it's working great! and I love it! From all the roms I tried this one has the best feel.. from the smoothness to the transitions, it looks pro. Better than any other Android ui I've seen.
Have just been playing around with settings but haven't found a single problem or error. Still haven't tested out BT, fingers crossed that it's fixed! =D
Another newb question, I've seen "FC" a couple of times... what is it? Force Close, right? I read a couple of people complaning that there was an error with new SMS's that would trigger a ui FC. I've tested it- no problems!

Bugs in 4.3

Hi there.
I update my N4 first day after release and i notice some bugs.
1.When i press power button to unlock, it unlocks and lock it again, like pressing twice.
2.When i make a call sometimes screen is black, like problem with sensor.
I make fresh update via fastboot, then wipe everything. Clean install.
This bugs i dont have on 4.2.2.
Can someone tell is there with this bugs or some other...?
Maybe we gonna need one more update from Google .

No similar bugs here.

No issues here. Try downloading the stock image and flash again on a clean wipe.

I already do that. Download from google site and clean install via fastboot.
This bugs are after that.

Well, I actually have some serious issues with 4.3 that I did not have in 4.2.2. Playing any game, even Candy Crush Saga, was impossible due to gpu throttle, getting low framerates even after leaving the phone sleep for 15min... But in 4.2.2 I had no frame drops whatsoever, no matter the time I had been playing/using the device before, so I'm definetly staying with 4.2.2 until they fix that.
And I flashed 4.3 3 times to make sure it was something "normal".

No problems here

Maybe you have a messed up power button. Did you go back to 4.2 and see if the problem disappears. I have a friend with a n4 and his power button was so sensitve. Just looking at it made it activate, jk but it was pretty close he did an exchange

Try new clean install. Via fastboot.

Well, I already managed to crash Gmail & Voice Search. never happened to me with 4.2.x - fresh install.
I did notice others complain about crashing GAppz after upgrading to 4.3, so I guess I'm not alone.

Bluetooth audio quality still sucks, has slightly improved over 4.2 but still the highs are pretty much screwed up.

Hello!
Can you tell me, please, what do you mean by clean install ? I have already flashed with 4.3 stock image with adb/fastboot (flash-all.bat) and I am wondering if I did something wrong because now, my phone is starting acting like a samsung - it is slower, baterry is worse and, overall, it seems that it has a fewer frame rate.
Thank you

In my case it means that after I received the OTA update, I rebooted, entered recovery, did reset factory defaults + wipe cache and configured everything from the beginning.
Can't get cleaner than that. upgrades might go wrong due to bad applications, old system configurations & stuff. It's better to do a fresh start once you get a newer version of the os.

[Q] Anyone had this problems with CM 9.1.0d ?

I have just installed a new ROM in my Milestone for first time and used CyanogenMod 9.1.0d
Everything looks amazing but I noticed my soft home button doesn't work AT ALL, camera button isn't working either, I cant see the lock screen as other versions, can't open Google Play app and can't synchronize my Google account so I don't have access to my phone contacts
Have someone else happened (and fixed) this problems??
Thanx

Did you flash GApps?

if not use this guide replace cm7 with cm9.1.0d
100% working

I fixed the problem already but forgot to erase this trend... the problem was after wipe I installed CM9 and Gapps together and got that problem... after wiping all again I installed CM9 rebooted and installed Gapps and worked fine.
Still have no idea what that bug ever happened but i fixed :laugh:
But I changed CM9 to CM7 cause my battery was dropping from 100 to 0 in 4 hours, not good if I'm too much time out of home. Thanks anyway for your interest
