Search This thread
fIX THE SU ISSUE [permanently]

1-download es file explore
2-enable up to root from setting
3-goto system/aps
4-click superuser.apk it will re-install
5-download the super su (another program)
6-open super su
7-it will ask for root and volla
8-use es file esplorer and erase supersuer.apk and .odex


hope that help,

When you upgrade from BETA4 then there is an easier fix:

1) download & install the 'super su' (another program)
2) open super su, it will ask for root
3) install BETA5
4) uninstall super su

1.USB tethering doesnt seem to work(crashes) though the 1st post says so.
2.I had pretty frequent lockscreen response issues, though i got the impression it got better after shifting to smartass..dunno what it has got to do with it

Hello Zeuba,

First : THANKS for your work !!!!

OK, so when you flashed beta 5, did you only flash over the top of beta 4? And not format boot, system, data, cache and sd-ext? Cause if you don't format boot, system, data, cache and sd-ext, your going to have no end of problems.

Hello Ranger .

I flashed from CM7 and before flashing CM9 I wiped all "wipeable" elements (cache, data, dalvik ...) .

Then I tried 3 times to flash the beta5 with rewipping all elements each times, I even donwloaded 2 times the .zip to be sure my download wasn't corrupted . But still no result :-/ .

I'm on beta4 by now (and all is working fine, even the photo camera and without camera illusion) .

So I will wait for the beta6 or CM10 :D

Voice Search fix

Hi all,

I have applied the voice fix and it worked great. However, when I need to restart the device I am back with the defective version. How do I install the app so that it sticks. I told the market not to auto update that app.

Cheers,
Steve.

I notice you only really mention cache in your reply as in Cache, data, davlik... are you formatting the boot, system, data, cache and sd-ext?
This information is very important if you want help.

This is not aimed directly at you,but I've seen quite a few having problems trying to flash beta5, and as with all versions zeubea has put out its been the same issues, "I can't flash alpha X or beta X or I get boot loop" etc the only way any one can help any one is to provide an explination as to exactly how you've tried to flash in the first place.

I bet 9 times out of 10 those with issues have corrupt download, just because you downloaded it 10 or more times doesn't mean its not corrupt (I've sometimes had corrupt downloads every time on my phone till I downloaded it via PC) that's why we have "md5" check sums, if you don't know what they are, you better find out, or whom ever having issues have not formatted the phone compleatly or correctly.

The 1 out of 10 could even be bad memory blocks as discovered by user neferth in this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=32075140.

Something for you to chew on ;)

Sorry didn't really mean to hi-jack Dev thread...

T-Mobile/Orange (EE)

What is the most stable radio ROM for T-Mobile UK (Orange / EE) I have used the recommended legend.radio-47.51.35.17_7.13.35.05-signed and the signal meter display will fluctuate between 2-5 bars when turning on the spot (same room etc.)

Your using a cellular mobile phone inside a room, as a amateur radio opererator myself, I know the frequencies your dealing with require clear line sight direct to the base station for guaranteed uninterrupted signal, so what your experiencing is I'd say is totaly normal.

Hello Ranger .

I checked the md5 of beta5 and it is correct, so my download is ok .

to flash I did (in this order) :

01 - I started the phone with "vol down" + "power", it brings me to the bootloader .
02 - In the bootloader menu I choosed "recovery", it bring me to the black screen with the red "!" . At this stage I do "vol up" + "power" to get the "Android system recovery <2e>"
03 - In this menu I choosed "wipe data/factory reset"
04 - then i applied "Wipe cache partition"
05 - thirdly, to go to CWM I do "apply sdcard:update.zip"
06 - Now in CWM I have done : "wipe data/factory reset"
07 - still in CWM I have done : "Wipe cache partition"
08 - still in CWM I gone to "advanced" and I choosed "Wipe Dalvik Cache"
09 - Then I pressed the back button to go back in the "CWM main menu" and I choosed "Install zip from sdcard" > "choose zip from sdcard" > "beta5"

10 - The phone applied the beta5 zip but I'm stuck on HTC green logo .

I applied exactly the same method for beta4 and it worked successfully . I NEVER used the menu "mount and storage" (for any rom before !) so I have never formatted "boot" or "system" .

(by writting theses lines I'm understanding that beta5 as a special ICS kernel, so if I don't format "boot" will the kernel be replaced) .
Should I try to format "boot" and "system" before flashing beta5 ??


Thanks again for your help and sorry for my english that could not be as good as i would .

We'll yes, that was whole point to my responses, format boot, system, data, cache, sd-ext. Some roms have script inside that prepair system space to accept rom, but I don't think zeubeas roms have ever had this feature. As I've already said if you don't, your heading for problems, just as I've already said......
Just do it, flash your rom, then flash gapps then reboot, easy! I flash ALL my cm based roms this way and NEVER EVER have these issues that so many seam to have.

    screenshot2012091718234.png

    I have built this CM9 UNOFFICIAL port for my Legend, initially motivated to prove this phone runs ICS. Install it and fun it !!!

    DISCLAIMER: This is a rom intended for somehow devs and enthusiasts, in beta development stage and, although rather responsive and stable, it could be not suitable for daily use.

    FEATURES

    This is the actual working/not working list:

    Working (stable):
    1) touchscreen, haptic response
    2) GSM functions (calling, texting, data)
    3) audio,
    4) wifi, wifi strength indicator
    5) bluetooth,
    6) browser, market, gapps (google play, gmail, gmail accounts, etc.. ), and other apps (Tapatalk, Chess Lite, etc.)
    7) lights,
    8) leds,
    9) sensors,
    10) sdcard,
    11) overclock (really not necessary since HWA, it can work at 600MHz; if you do it, not beyond to 787 mhz)
    12) root,
    13) adb,
    14) vibration,
    15) tones, ringtones, notifications, alarms
    16) headphones

    20) USB mass storage
    21) FM radio, using spirit FM App and setting for msm7x30 Method (thanks to ranger4740)

    23) Wifi tethering with OpenGarden
    24) Hw Acceleration (Stock Gallery, Live Wallpapers, Video, Youtube, Google Maps App, etc.).

    MEDIAFIRE: cm-9.1.0-UNOFFICIAL-BETA8-legend.zip [UPDATED DEC 07]
    MD5SUM: 6819a4747e293cf0fc589b52aa3a15c1

    Donate Paypal
    * All donations are welcomed; if you desire it, you can invite me to a beer :)

    Thanks very much to everyone, your contrib does possible I spend more time on this project !!
    Prerequisites : hboot >= 1.02.0000

    1.- Wipe data/reset factory
    2.- Wipe cache
    3.- Advanced -> wipe dalvik
    4.- Install cm9 (it takes a time)
    5.- Follow the wizard if applicable
    6.- Reboot
    7.- Install gapps


    * These steps work for me.
    ** Check the latest available radios for your Location/Carrier
    *** Note gps.conf is set up according Europe location

    ISSUES:

    Youtube HQ / Video HQ is working, thanks to Ganster41 libstagefright fix for Video decoding. However, embebed videos in browser are shown as a black area

    Headset icon missing (although headset works)

    Working, but third part app is needed for:
    - wifi sleep (dont use native wifi sleep)

    Native camcording is working. Videos are accessibles by means of a file manager.

    HBOOT >= 1.02.0000 is needed. If you has got problems with installation and a different HBOOT than 1.02.0000 (0.43.0000, 1.01.0000), consider upgrading HBOOT to 1.02.0000 or S-OFF.

    TWEAKS & TRICKS:

    - Use "Use wifi in suspension always" + third part wifi timer. Otherwise, native wifi sleep does not work and you could get reboots.
    - Voice Search : http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=25126525&postcount=651
    - Because AMOLED display, browsing with inverted colors save a lot battery and avoid overheating of display.
    - Camcording works with third part app as Camera Illusion.

    FAQ

    1.- Is this rom using the new Adreno200 drivers for ICS?
    Yes. They are used with kernel enabled gpu acceleration since ALPHA3.

    2.- What is the status of camera?
    At BETA3 all camera is working (photos, preview, camcording and panoramic). Camcording works with a third part app as Camera Illusion.

    3.- Can i connect a usb flash drive to the phone using a usb otg cable?
    USB On The Go is not supported. This feature is supported for a few recent high-end devices, such as Samsung Galaxy S2.

    4.- Can performance get better?
    Yes you can try out this tweaks http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=25018796&postcount=551. Besides, you can overclocking it with caution.

    5.- about GPS
    * flash the latest radio,
    * dont flash another gps libs from out

    6.- Is this usable for daily usage?
    Rather yes, it is.

    NEW 7.- What about incoming call issue?
    Well, I experimented this issue only one time with beta4 release, and for this reason I did not include this issue in previous release. Then, and motivated for trying out other more tested kernels, I have switched to cryptomilk kernel (credtis to modpunk/cryptomilk/droste), used sucessfully in ohter htc msm7227 devices as marvel, aria, chachacha.

    Hi, I am very busy this weeks and at the moment i can not work in camcoder. It implies debbuging android libstagefright and possibly OpenMax video decoder, because it has got an not informed error when camera records video. I also merged last video related commits of cyanogenmod (thanks to homi3kh for notice me) but it is not enough for doing it working.

    The state of camera in other msm7227 devices is equal to Legend, indeed Legend was first msm7227 device having preview, and other devs contact with me about it. If it was for help for fix it, great! About armv7 archs, Desire S and Desire has got camcorder but Nexus One does not. SGS2 and Nexus have got, obviously.

    I have planned a to-do list, including:
    - Camcorder,
    - Pending fixes "fixed" (Limit data usage, boot animation size, gb AGPS fix, voice search, wifi/VPN realed settings, etc..),
    - Inverted Apps,
    - OJ Wake up (fixed in my local repo)

    This future update will be release in base to when is camcorder fixed, because I intend they are not so important as camcorder.

    On the other hand, it is a very good news that CM9 Legend Beta0 has got beyond 2,000 downloads, incredible!, it is also thanks to you, and 7 donations (not bad); thanks very much, your contribs are very appreciated!!).

    Well, I will stay off during next two weeks and then I will work at camcorder and I will release an update with minor fixes.

    Hi, i am here again ...

    CM9.1 BETA 5 Sep 18 2012
    - kernel :
    * switch to cryptomilk kernel (thanks to cryptomilk : modpunk, droste etc.) : more tested kernel, working ok in aria and marvel.
    - CM 9.1:
    * updates from upstream.

    CM10 ALHPA1 Sep 18 2012
    - Initial Release: very unstable, not working: sdcard and more stuff. Wifi module provokes reboots.

    CM9.1 is very stable for now. Cryptomilk kernel is more mature and tested.

    CM10 is higly buggy, with stuff not working, but it seems more responsive than ICS. It is just a first Jellybean build.
    24
    Guys, I applied a couple of patches and I have built a camera module which only takes phots, no preview, no recordig, etc. It is a first step.
    24
    Well, good news, finally camera preview worked. However video recording apparently must would be working, but parameters are not setting properly in camera driver by camera HAL module.

    Because camera is working partially, I think now is a a good time for starting beta series. I know this camera module is not fully stable and I don´t know when video will be fixed o if this module will be fully stable, but I think we are at a similar level as other CM9 devices.
