Default GingerDX Bugs List & Solutions

NOW LESS LIKE BUGS REPORTS! MORE LIKE A FAQ!!
Can you believe that?
That's just prove how bugless this ROM can be...

This successful thread is showing all the bugs that appeared in GingerDX.

I want to say thank you to Master Doixanh for this great ROM!! But now, Doixanh is working on IScreamDX, so this ROM is now under new management...

So, let's open our hands, and welcome Team Fun!!
Thanks for carrying on support of this ROM!! You guys ROCK!

................................................
WHY MUST YOU USE THIS ROM??
................................................
- Super clean ROM!!
- Frequent updates!
- Most of the bugs in this ROM are just minor bugs.
- This is confirmed as the most feature-complete and popular Gingerbread ROM ever for X8/W8!!
- Antutu Benchmark Score: 1860 or UP
- Perfect for people with locked bootloaders and for users using Alfs & LinuxDX kernels & *NEW* nAa kernel too!
- So, are you interested? I bet you are... try out now!!
OFFICIAL THREAD

................................................
MY GOAL!! (READ BEFORE SCROLLING DOWN)
................................................
Before you continue into the next part, please READ HERE!

Of course, my goal is to provide help to people who are having problems with bugs and installation. If you reading this now, please remember this FOREVER:

- Ask your questions here, rather than spamming the GDX thread!! I really pity B.Jay & Eagleeyetom for reading stupid posts...

................................................
BUGS LIST & SOLUTIONS...
...............................................
(X) means confirmed.
(?) means not confirmed.
................................................
:: v029 Bugs ::
................................................

- Transparent Status Bar (X)
Solution: Don't set transparent status bar in Settings
OR
Use a compatible theme and launcher.

- Phone Crashes When Received a Call while using an app that requires more memory resulting in unable to answer the call. Some people also experience lags when received a call. (X)
Solution: Disable Call Me Louder in GingerDX settings.

- FM Radio is buggy, like the speaker and headphones bug. (X)
Solution: B.Jay had informed he won't be fixing this bug. So, try using a internet radio app. Search it on Play Store. Or, try replacing the Radio.apk with radios from other ROMs.

- Phone suddenly reboot (X)
Solution: Probably on low memory.
Too many big apps installed. Uninstall useless ones. Using Alfs may reduce this problem.

- CPU Frequency Settings in Cyanogenmod Settings Is Not Working. (X)
Solution: Use SetCPU to set frequencies
OR
Install a custom kernel.

- Stock camera have zoom settings, but it is not working. (X)
Solution: Our phone don't support zooming. If you really want to zoom, use Camera ZOOM FX or some other apps with this feature.

- Wifi can't connect. It keeps on saying "Connecting" forever. (X)
Solution: Delete all your saved networks and try again.

- Busybox on stock kernel cannot be updated successfully without a soft brick on all Froyo & Gingerbread ROMs. (X)
Solution: Just don't do it. But, if you can install custom kernels, flash Alfs kernel and the addons.

- LED light does not work when the battery is less than 10%. (X)
Solution: Try installing Alfs CM7 v09a.

- Ultra-brightness does not work after rebooting, you have to uncheck and recheck the setting again to make it work. (X)
Solution: Same llike the solution above. Install Alfs CM7 v09a.

- LED notification settings does not appear in CM Settings. (X)
Solution: At the homescreen, add a shortcut, click Cyanogenmod Settings, then click LED Notifications Settings.

- Brightness settings don't work. (X)
Solution: Make sure you installed Alfs v08a, or you can try deleting lights.shakira.so from system/libs/hw using a file manager.

- Provider text on status bar gets truncated when notifications go longer. (X)
Solution: None, Achep is looking into this and might be fixed soon.


................................................
Notice:

1. 50% of the bugs can be fixed by installing a custom kernel. 80% of the bugs are not real bugs, I only list them down because "someone" considers it as bugs.

2. Please don't blame me for not listing any bugs here. Please report and confirm bugs here. Bear it in mind, you are not helping me, you are helping everyone that have a X8/W8 and using GingerDX!

3. No spam please! This thread is only for reference, I'm not asking the devs to fix anything at all.

4. GingerDX... really the best Gingerbread ROM ever... Cheers! Please subscribe for future updates.

5. Hit the THANKS button to support me!!

This topic should be closed.

Why? Are you dev? Shut up and wait for Doixanh - he definitely knows what he should fix.

And be patient!

Wtf man, what is this rage all about? Afaik this thread is just for listing bugs.. Why are you telling him to be patiente? He's not asking for fixes, he's not asking anything other than what bugs other users experience and listing them.
Geez, you think you are making some good treating him like one of the trolls that got the devs out, but this thred has nothing to do with it.
He even asks for no spamm and BAAM, you post unrelated things. And here i am, doing the same..

Dude, are u blind or retarded ? He said he's only stating the known bugs for GingerDx and he clearly states that he's not asking dx to fix it...its just a POINT OF REFERENCE !!! Idk if you're trying to be a smartass or if you seriously can't read, but i think that it's good someone is attemting to do smthing like this...so douchebags (probably you i might add) won't pointlessly spam the original gdx thread, which for dx, pisses him off more than what you're saying....@lucastan96 nice job man im sure dx will appreciate us discussing the bugs here especially if some people cant read properly and end up pissing off the devs sry for going off topic, but if people need straightning out, i don't hold back

ummm btw, u might want to add that at least 80% of all stated and unstated bugs can be fixed if you flash a custom kernel and i see someone has finally brought up the LP bug...I've tried everything but nothing works...so solution ; change launcher ...but interestingly tho, i tested out FBv23b and it doesn't have the same bug
