So just wondering. I love this rom, would it be possible to take something from the new 2.3.5 for the photon and make mms work on this rom using sprint? I use go sms to make it work now, but it would be nice to just use the stock app.

Gallery app do not show my photos just new images taken with the camera.

I think you mean on your external sdcard.
You're right, just change ro.mot.internalsdcard=0 > 1 in build.prop. But then again won't work import/export of contacts from internal sdcard.
But not showing pictures is worse I think. :)


bricky - I will think about that, but it's to much work to start from the beginning. But I already started with changing kernel :)

Yes I agree not worth starting over. Just thought maybe there would be an easy fix. I really appreciate all the work you're doing here. This ROM is amazing!

So, if I will make some recap, if you're using GoSms, all that makes working mms, are the proper settings of apns? Those default are locked, can be changed in /etc/apn.conf, but this won't help? And if you add the sprint rom Conversation.apk, still nothing? Some settings in programming menu, in addition to the above, doesn't help too? What are the default APN settings for Sprint? Anything more that I should know about delivering MMS on CDMA?
I need some help with this, I don't know much about CDMA, just that there is some carrier information coded right in the radio.
I will start with MMS.apk comparing to GoSms.apk

And one more thing, mms works with CM7 on Sprint? I need to know this.

There are no apns when using sprint, and you can't add them. So I tried this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=22012299 put the eri.xml in v7 rom, to change name display from uscc to sprint. Replaced apn.xml in framework and replace apn–conf.xml in etc. Used apn from fixes thread. Flashed that, now I have 3 apns, 2 sprint, 1 uscc. All locked. So I went into ect and system etc and removed apn–conf.xml then open apns select return to default, they are gone, now I can create new ones. So I made new ones to match the cm9 fixes thread, and now I can send but not receive. With go sms the only settings needed are mmsc = http://mms.sprintpcs.com and port =80 to work. Hope any of this helps. Oh also replace build. Prop with the one from the link. Maybe I changed too much?

is it possible to have delivery option for text messages?

I noticed, there is delivery option only for mms, not sms, in the cm7 mms.apk. So I think, this option could work only on stock conversations.apk? Or works for sms too, in cm7?

bricky - thanks I will look into this, when I get home.

One more thing if you could try? Just delete the apn.xml from framework, if it makes some change.
Apns and mms works normally in cm7 for sprint?

In cm7 I had to do this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=19183797 to make mms work. As far as removing apn.xml I am at work right now. Can't seem to do it from my phone. I will try it once I get home, and have a computer.

Very nice rom, for the gallery problem not seeing pictures in the sd card ext just download QuickPic. No stock music player so buy poweramp (there is a 15 days trial), or download winamp, dont buy player pro (couldnt get it to see my music in the sd card ext). Im having some signal problems i dont know if it is the ROM or my antenna got stupid. I use GSM/UMTS.

For the media not seen, I wrote, how to fix it, easy, in build.prop. Signal strength is normal, like Photon stock (GN is better on this), but the 4 bar indicator shows less, than it should. Talking about gsm.

I will try to get the apn settings unlocked for cdma.

Edit: Tried some apn and build.prop modifications for CDMA this is prerelease of v8 - http://d-h.st/HG3

Finally got around to getting a bigger SD card so I could make more backups and try this out. Installs great and looks amazing! I just wanted to report that regrettably, Webtop doesn't work with it. I plugged a fresh installation into my converted Atrix lapdoc, and only briefly was shown an error about HDMI mirroring on the lapdoc screen, then it went blank. I guess this is just too deblured to have function Webtop.

Looks amazing though and is running very fast and responsive! Love it, but can't live w/o my webtop...I'm addicted! :)

    This is Electrify rom, completely deblured, except phone and hdmi features, with added cm7 and other apps and features,
    to minimize phone and hdmi issues and maximise usability of the hardware, using lightweight software,
    without needs to sync anything, like Blur. Google sync is enough and there are plenty of apps in Google play.
    And that all in many languages, which are included in AOSP, but someone took them out.

    But still, it's not perfect and never will be. ;)

    Made on my own unlocked GSM Photon, but works well on CDMA (Sprint) and Electrify (US Cellular) too.

    Locked version also available. But still no 4g!

    I am not responsible for any software or hardware damage or not working emergency calling. You don't have to use this.

    If I am posting something I should not, tell me and I will delete it. I am just sharing this, because it´s good for me and could be good for someone else.

    If anything does not work right after installation, do one more restart please.


    Features:
    - based on Electrify 2.3.5_USC_19 firmware
    - 1.0 GHz stock 2.3.5_254_13 kernel
    - fully deblured (no support for anything using blur account and no social apps or widgets or features)
    - modified UI in many places (framework, statusbar, notification, settings and many remaining apps)
    - framework and most of apps translated to various languages (used translation from CM7) ...
    ... Russian is fully translated, Arabic support (not perfect)
    - updated zone info and ICU (8/12)
    - CM7 apps - SMS and MMS, Email, Calendar, Voice Dialing, Torch, File Manager, Sound Recorder, Keyboard, Screenshot
    - Nemus Launcher (Nenustech), Gallery ICS (Moblynx), Play Music (Google) ...
    ... FMRadio (Moto Froyo Defy but modified), My Phone Number (Lytsig), Resolution Changer (djeman) apps added
    - stock camera connected with Gallery ICS with 1080p video recording
    - 1% battery steps in statusbar, battery usage - everywhere
    - advanced Global Actions Menu - reboot, recovery, screen capture
    - CM notification toggles (10), with long click handling
    - HDMI mirroring with Resolution Changer and Webtop, both working without docks
    - automatic brightness levels modified, activated automatic backlight decreasing
    - CM download management without restrictions in downloading
    - unlocked APNs (you can edit them) accessible also for CDMA (Accounts & Battery & Data)

    Do not forget to calibrate the battery - it means - install, boot, (maybe reboot), charge 100%, wipe battery stats and /data/battd folder, discharge to 0% without any reboot (but you can use it ofcourse), plug your charger while holding power button to bypass charge only mode, do not unplug your charger or do not reboot, until it is 100% and use it anyhow you like...
    Then you can complain about battery. It means, not sooner than 2 days after installation. :p
    This calibration is not needed because of battery (it is lithium battery), but because of not very good Moto power statistics management. Battery can be charged anytime you like, but the phone can show only estimated battery values, based on charging and discharging.
    You can use this Battery Fix app for wiping.


    Sorry for my English.

    ALWAYS MAKE BACKUP FIRST.

    YOU CAN USE ANY RECOVERY YOU LIKE.

    First post updated - v12

    Don´t know about roaming but probably has to be turned on in Settings - Accounts battery data - Data delivery and CDMA settings for automatic, but don´t know, how to make forced roaming

    All games should be fine now.
    8
    First post updated - v11

    -some fixes, cleaning, lib changes (Photon 2.3.5)
    -adobe flash pluggin removed - install from market
    -usb media sync fixed

    And who wants another number of signal bars, here is how-to:
    in build.prop -
    ro.mot.phonemode.vzwglobalphone=0
    ro.mot.phonemode.numsignalbars=4 or 5 or 6

    Next version will be 5 bars. It shows accurate on GSM.

    Uploading v7:

    - HDMI mirroring with resolution changer from "djeman" - this thread - thank him
    - BlurSetup is out of the rom - you can access your accounts from settings and contacts - now it is fully deblured
    - added Talk with video calling
    - maybe wipe will be needed, but I am not sure
    - I am not sure about the webtop yet, you can try, but I will install it and try myself later
    - I had some problem with Market (code 403), but the problem stopped itself and did not returned, even after wipe, so I hope, noone will have it


    v7 uploaded
