I did no kernel change. Only some modifcations in ramdisk (init.rc)
new 3.3.4 kernel boot partial now. (adb works) big thanks to rhodium kernel team.
Well I'm kinda confused why cam works for RHOD100 folks on your build, but not on OMGB...
I guess it's not a big deal, unless someone on a RHOD100 feels like helping figuring it out. I alas do not have such a device.
I see that users have posted CDMA SOD's problems and restarts have been given no help or at least one orientation to try to solve the problem ...
Veo que a los usuarios CDMA que hemos posteado los problemas de SOD's y reinicios no se nos ha dado una ayuda o al menos una orientación para tratar de solucionar el problema...

It's probably a RIL issue, and unfortunately we don't really have many people who are RIL experts. Heck, the guy who wrote the CDMA stuff from nothing but stubs doesn't even have a CDMA device... what does that tell you.
That's what I've been suspecting, a RIL issue.
And yes, the RIL was written blindfolded and with one hand tied behind his back!
We should be grateful to have CDMA working, no matter how much it misbehaves at times!Big kudos to this entire community!!!

Look, do you really think that if the devs had a solution it wouldn't be published by now?
They do not have any obligation towards us. They publish, we test, post logs, AND WHEN A SOLUTION IS FOUND THEY WILL REPUBLISH AND THE CYCLE STARTS ALL OVER AGAIN. PERIOD.
This is not a support forum for a commercial android device. Devs dedicate their time to help us push the boundaries of our TP2's. It's a gift.
Stop complaining, please. If you can't put up with it, then quit and go back to WinMo.
Alright, so I've been using this for a week or so now. I love this so much. I've been using my Rhod210 for music and social networking due to the wonderful keyboard. I've only experienced one issue - the battery life. Battery life is right about eight hours right now with WiFi running and TweetCaster updaing my Twitter feed every hour. I stream Last.fm quite a bit as well. (Can't beat stereo speakers!)
Doing this same thing in WM, I get a battery life of two days (roughly). I have not popped in a SIM card or fooled around with any cellular service. It's basically a PMP right now.
I'm not complaining about the battery, just sharing my experience. I've only had one random reboot when fooling with overclocking. I forgot what the max was for me in WM, and I set it too high. I can't go past 787MHz.
In any case, thanks a ton for this wonderful bit of joy that you guys have provided. It's been so nice being able to play with my Rhodium again. I'm still using my HD2 as my daily driver. I've got a few other newer devices lying around collecting dust. Can't beat the dev work like this! Kudos, kudos, kudos to you guys!

I have Rhod100, using OMGB with ACL's latest kernel (with battery optimalization) and my camera works fine!
I need some help. I got to the following step
In your CMD window type this command:
Fastboot flash recovery cwm_recovery.img
Reboot: (Or hit the reset button)
In your CMD window type this command:
Fastboot reboot
and now my phone is stuck. It boots and loads minipooploader but says flash_read_image failed and could not do normal boot resorting to fastboot mode. It doesn't seem I can do anything. I try to enter the last two commands before recovery but it says (waiting for device). I can't get it to enter into recovery to flash the next step and apply update from sd card and install cm7.2.
Please someone help me. Hopefully I can fix this as I just got the phone as a replacement for my broken one.

After you type "fastboot reboot", once the phone restarts and the blue screen is shown again, press the power button right away and keep it pressed until you go into recovery mode.
you can release powerbutton, when "power key pressed" is shown on your screen
to navigate in the reco mode use the volumerocker and red/green buttons!
When I type in the line into the command window it just says waiting for device. It says on the blue screen usb is online and this is a cold boot. Forcing fast boot but doesn't do anything. If I hold down the power button it will say so on the phone but volume rocker doesn't do anything. What am I doing wrong or what do I need to be doing? Hopefully there is a way to fix this. Thanks for your help so far.
after tried again the omgb + update the camera kernel, my camera + camcorder worked perfectly (tested), but... the notification light kept on all the time (green when standby, orange when in use). that i think would make the batt drains faster.
so once again i back to this rom with camera working + camcorder working without recording sound (record audio only for the first 2-3 seconds).. but without notification light on. i think this rom is more suitable for my rhodium100....
for viber, i'm using the old version, it's running perfectly.

First off, I'm pretty sure you can change the LED state. Second, if you think leaving an LED on is draining your battery you're insane. That LED could probably stay on for 6 months with less than 10% battery, if that's all the battery was powering. Seriously, LED's draw basically 0 power compared to everything else the battery is running.
Edit - To be clear, I really don't care what build you run. I prefer a lot of the features provided in CM... I just want you to know that the LED always on is not going to drain your battery.

I knew I kept my old Rhody for a reason! This is awesome, not that I use the phone any more but followed it through just because I could, so well done and awesome work to all those involved.
I've read through the posts but can't seem to find anyone with the same tiny problem, the the end call key is the power button (as well as the power button itself) is there any way to change that in the KeyChars map file perhaps.

Ok, perhaps the problem is that you are still leaving the phone connected via usb even after the "reboot" command. what I do is, once i type the "fastboot reboot" command and the screen goes off, I disconnect the phone and let it restart. of course as soon as the blue screen shows, I press the power button and keep it pressed until the "power key pressed" shows up (or until I feel a little vibration). after that the phone should get in CWM recovery mode.

2012.03.27 first release4I hacked up a zip file that installs the kernel from the latest OMGB release as it has some new battery code. I though I would post it in case someone wants to play with it. The kernel will not work on the 3.x.x versions of this rom I suspect, but I was able to use it with the 2.6.x version. Also some gps libs I pulled from GBX. Not sure if they are newer than the ones in this rom, but there they are. No warranty or support for this is offered. It should be fine, but if your phone becomes Skynet after installing I take no responsibility.3Information about 3.3.4 kernel build!
- Display will be black if you try to press power and devices sleeps and USB-cable is plugged.
- without plugged USB-cable display works normal
- wifi is not working (fixed with 2012-05-22 build)
- data works only with enabled national/international roaming
- automatic APN settings did not work
- autobacklight is not working - switch to manual
- detule 3.3.4 (6) kernel
- ramdisk modded to work with cm7.2
- /lib/hw used from Xdandroid GBX0C nand
- mediaprovider.apk form Xdandroid GBX0C nand (CM7.2 mediaprovider = FC)
CDMA build is not tested.2
Maybe less ram. You run some havy background apps. Try without whatsapp.
