Hi All,

I am not a developer, but have been flashing my way around for quite some time now,

I have a MZ600, I have been using the Stingray with EOS uneventfully for some time now.

I have tried a thousand different ways to get this installed, but every time I get "symlink errors"

I know the "bigpart" has been successful,

Any Ideas??

Thanks in advance,

Domunus · Jan 2, 2014

ROM installed successfully. After first boot i was getting a lot of android.phone.com force closes. After a reboot it occurred a few more times at start but has since stopped. I'm working on getting a logcat and will post it next time it crashes. But other than that, so far so good!!! Everything else seems to be working great aside from that and the TTS crashes.

I used PA Gapps full.
LTE is working

Thank you Schischu and the rest of the developers assisting on this project from Omni Rom and BigPart!

Is there any difference between this and the Wingray version other than the 4G/LTE radio support? I have a Stingray and don't use cellular data service so I have the wingray ROM installed currently. Just want to make sure I'm not missing anything else.

The ROM rocks :laugh: :good:

There is no difference other than the radios and the options in settings referring to the cellular service.

I keep getting the com.android.phone error and I cannot connect to any mobile network. I've tried putting it into airplane mode, pulling the sim card, no go.

Looking at your log I see lots and lots of xposed errors. Did you install xposed framework?

I did. I can do a wipe and clean install this evening and send you a new log. The com.phone FC's were happening before xposed. Its interesting how the errors vary. On one boot they will happen non-stop and then on another boot I may only get one or two and then no problems at all. It seems very random.

But beyond the phone errors its running great!!
Thanks again

Ah true, I didn't see the phone error above earlier.

Code:

01-02 19:02:14.847 10101 10101 E AndroidRuntime: Process: com.android.phone, PID: 10101
01-02 19:02:14.847 10101 10101 E AndroidRuntime: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com.android.internal.telephony.IccCardApplicationStatus$AppType

01-02 19:02:14.847 10101 10101 E AndroidRuntime: 	at android.app.Activity.performCreate(Activity.java:5231)

Ok I will check this out.

Edit:
Ok lets try this
Download
http://duckbox.info/android/MotoSimUiHelper.apk

I hope you are familiar with adb.
Push file to device
adb push MotoSimUiHelper.apk /sdcard/

Open shell to device
adb shell
Enter on adb shell following
su
If you have supersu installed you will get a popup on your device screen, if not it will just work
mount -o remount,rw /system
cp /sdcard/MotoSimUiHelper.apk /system/app/
reboot

And if we are lucky it will work

GREAT ROM!!! Thank you for keeping the XOOM alive!

I just tried the following and it didnt work. Well let me rephrase, it worked because it got rid of the messages but it did not work because now I am not getting signal. Before trying this, i was getting the error messages but I had full LTE signal. Now, it only displays signal for about 1-2 seconds on initial boot (when im sitting on the lockscreen), and then it goes away. Also everytime I go into and try to select "LTE" as the Preferred Network Type, it always defaults to "3G" when I exit the "Mobile Networks" menu option. Under "About>System Status":

- Signal "-105dBm"
- Network type "LTE"
- Service State "In service"
- Mobile Network State "Disconnected"

I don't know it this has anything to do with it but I have not actually bought a plan on the SIM card. Before on EOS rom, I could pull up browser at any time and get the VZW activation page at any time when on LTE. Now I just get the "No Internet" page.....

I was able to get passed the FC's by simply rebooting. It would still come up with a few more FC's at first but the FC's stop completely after that and the mobile network works fine. I did not do anything special between reboots. Hope that helps you until they fix the actual issue.

I'm going to try Schischu's possible fix to see if i get the same issue as soccertolive as i do have an active mobile plan.

I rebooted several times and still got the error and no signal. Please let us know if the fox works and what happens.

This worked for me. No further FC's upon boot and data is working with LTE fine. The settings do show 3g preferred and LTE preferred will not stick; however my signal shows 4G. Ran a speedtest and i'm receiving 10MB/s up and 10MB/s down.

Schischu · Jan 3, 2014

The problem is that the 4g/lte apks from motorola and verizon are closed source.
So for every bug you guys find I have to fixup the apks by "optimizing" the smali code.

So you guys will probably have to live with a few quirks.

soccertolive · Jan 3, 2014

I'm going to try and flash rom again then follow steps hoping it works.
