CyanideMod V2 volume

I am currently having a problem. The volume buttons on the phone are not working for Ringtone and Notification. They will only adjust the volume of the music, games & other Media. I have it set in Sound/Volumes, but it is not working. Also, I am not able to adjust the volumes in the profiles, they just stay set at defaults.

After media volume shows up click to make the volume extendable and then adjust the notification volume. I just noticed this so I'll be looking before I start working on it again

In v3, the classic (stock) recent apps panel seems to crash systemui. Slim recents works OK.

Will you check if omniswitch can be set as default recent app still? I fixed the stock recent issue before I uploaded but if omniswitch can still be selected as default then I uploaded the unfixed version. I'll upload V3.5 soon. Working on a kernel/recovery mod at the current time

Yes I can set omniswitch as the default for recents. Just to be sure I did a clean install and still have the issue with stock recents.

Well poop lol. That's actually good tho. Like I said I did already fix this, I just apparently uploaded the unfixed version. Oops. I can run a build fairly quickly as a still have the s2 build cached but I'm using build environment to build and make some recovery changes at the moment

FUSE support?

Hi,

I found this ROM last night and flashed it, and want to say thanks. I was having trouble with other ROMs aborting installation, but this one installed without a hitch. Everything works as it should, and way better than my old CM9 ROM. This was completely painless.

Question: Does the kernel have FUSE support?
I'm trying to get SSHFS working; I can ssh into the target server via terminal emulator, but SSHFS will not mount. It appears to mount but doesn't really. When I click unmount, It complains:
fusermount: error getting lock: Invalid argument
I know this isn't the place to get help with SSHFS, but it will only work if the kernel has FUSE support, so that enters into your bailiwick.

Oh, and a possible issue: It seems I'm not getting as strong a network signal now as I did before flashing this ROM. Is it even possible this could be due to a software issue?

Thanks again for the great work. You are awesome!

Stock recent panel is not working. Could just be my dirty flash. Thank you for your hard work. This ROM is amazing.

modem not working

I've been running a CyanogenMod-9 version for quite awhile, until about a week ago when I decided to upgrade. I tried some of the CM-10 versions, and installation aborted midway, leaving me stuck with a non-working phone for a few days.

I flashed CyanideMod-V3-S2 a few days ago, and was very pleased to see it install effortlessly. It looks great, and everything seems to be working, EXCEPT the modem.

The network signal is very weak. I can make calls if I am in town, or on top of a high hill, but often I get no signal at all. I do live in a rural area, but it has never been this weak. Even when I get full bars, they are always white, never blue as they should be. I have no access to data.

I don't know much about AT&T's network; frequencies, etc., but my semi-educated guess is that I'm not picking up all the frequencies I should.

In my settings:
Mobile network is on.
Data is enabled
Preferred network type is set to 3G
Network operators is set to ATT

Access Point Names was set to ATT LTE. I stopped in today at an ATT store, and the rep's phone was set to "ATT Phone" so I experimentally changed to that and rebooted, but saw no change. The settings in the 7 available choices match the setting in other working phones in our household, so I don't think this is a settings problem.

I found the "Consolidated Modem" thread on this site, which lists 13 choices for modems. My phone reports a "Baseband version of i777UCKK6, which is one of the choices in that page, which I assume was installed with the ROM. I don't know if the modem is my problem, and wouldn't have a clue which of these to try. Are they installed through recovery in the same way as the ROM and gapps?

I love this ROM, but the phone is nearly unusable as it is. Has anyone else had this problem, or does anyone have any pointers?
Thanks so much for all your hard work.

Newest modern is UCMD8. Rom wouldn't affect the modem other then the usual kk signal issues

Thanks for the update. Amazing!! Stalk recents still does not work (maybe because of dirty flash, please confirm with other users). Also the power menu-reboot menu does not have reboot to recovery. Reboot to recovery is available in stweaks. But it would be nice to have again in power menu.

If you uncheck and recheck Advanced Boot in Developer Options you should get the boot to recovery to show back up. It still shows for me after update.

I am getting FC on Google play services after update and cannot access my account. Would reflashing gapps fix that?

Thanks for helping him. Yes just reflash gapps. Not sure why it's like that but for some reason it is. I don't need it while testing but then do later on. Strange

Awesome build (V4). Coming from CM of a few months ago, everything is real snappy (also due to flashing afresh).

A few bugs so far:
1) Tapping on notifications in the pull-down drawer doesn't seem to link to anything (the animation works, but the associated action doesn't fire). Additionally, the Halo/Quick Settings buttons at the top of the notification drawer seem to get pushed off the edge of the screen (Would be nice if the Halo button could be removed/Halo disabled).
2) Lock screen slider shortcuts cover up cLock
3) Volume buttons (including from home screen) control system volume, not ringer/notification volume.

Amazing work, in any case! Some day I'll need to get a new phone.

Gonna be starting from scratch here.. can you give me a quick runthrough.. I have a bricked i777 that I will be starting with.. starting with an Odin tar(stock rooted 4.1.2?) to get it back up and running. It' s been years but I'll figure it out. just need a simple outline like which stock Odin tar.. then which android versions and recovery to install to get to your 4.4.4 .
thanks

I'm driving but maybe @creepyncrawly could point you there. Flash odin rom, flash odin custom kernel for recovery, make a backup, do a factory reset and wipe system, flash shift kernel, tenor to recovery abs flash rom and gapps. Use V3 of this rom. It's all here. You could probably fine before he sees this. I'm voice typing or I'd help you out

Use latest stock 4.1.2, I777UCMD8 which you can get from the download repository (link in my signature) Also some other stuff there if you need it, but not the recovery and firmware you need.

 

[tri0xinn]

thanks a ton, got everything back to square one with that I777UCMD8 tar, easy after that and now running cyanidemod and it's running as slick as my gs5.. at least it seems to be. thanks again:good:

 

[tri0xinn]

After a couple days of use its still running super slick.. only issue thus far is pretty bad battery life.. any settings i can adjust to improve things? Or another kernel maybe.. anyone else have issues with battery life?
