New builds?

Hi All,

I've been lurking here for a year or so, but now I need to go legit.

My background: Windows developer, plenty of SQL. Lots of fun messing around with Arduino platform. Very little *nix, no Android dev experience. Sometimes feel I'm a decent programmer...

I've tried CM12.1, RR and SOKP on my Bionic. SOKP is noticeably smoother than CM. Couldn't get past a boot loop with RR, so no comparison available.

It's been about a month since the SOKP Targa build. Will there be another? Where should I be looking? I tried my Google-Fu for this, with no luck...

Thanks!

-Ted

adb, 4GLTE, and Wifi ?s

Hi all!

Thanks for a great LolliPop 5.1 ROM for the old Bionic... I have been using it for about 6 weeks, and have a few questions and concerns - perhaps someone can offer guidance.

My config:
- Bionic (XT875) Rooted w/ RazrsEdgeRoot.
- Connected to Verizon wireless using BYOP StraightTalk sim card. (MUCH less $$$, still great connectivity)
- SafeStrap 3.75 w/ integrated Recovery TWRP 2.7.1.0
ROMS
- Stock - Original Verizon 6.7.246.XT875 (Android 4.0.4)
- Slot 1 - SOKP 5.1 LP

My ultimate interest is to get rid of the Stock ROM and only have SOKP 5.1 on the phone for max memory capability, but I have the following concerns:

Connecting to PC
- Using USB cable w/ Stock ROM, PC sees phone as "Removable disk drives". SOKP connection shows "device" with "internal storage" and "SD card". Where can I set SOKP to use USB Storage vs. MTP?
- 'adb devices' on my USB-cable-connected PC can see the phone when booting Stock ROM, but shows no devices when booting SOKP ROM.
- I have tried all types of combinations of "reboot PC/phone" and "connect to different USB slots on PC with different cables", always with the same results.
- I am concerned about getting access to the phone when adb wont see it for future playing.

Cell Network connection
I get 4GLTE connection using Stock ROM, but only get 3G connection w/ SOKP ROM.
- Entering *#*#info#*#*, Phone info in Stock shows Network Type "LTE:14", and Preferred Network Type "LTE/CDMA/EvDo"
- Entering *#*#info#*#*, Phone info in SOKP shows Network Type "eHRPD", and Preferred Network Type "LTE/GSM/CDMA auto (PRL)"
- No LTE/CDMA/EvDo Network Type available in SOKP.
- How can I see what APN is being used?
- Any setting considerations?

WiFi networks
Stock ROM stores and recalls wifi network information for auto connection. SOKP sees the networks, but doesn't store info. I have to put in the network password each time I connect.

Thanks again for a great ROM and for taking a minute w/ my requests. Any help is sincerely appreciated.

Will NANDROID data backups from ResurrectionRemix work with this ROM?, also In apps like Google Play Music there isn't an option to store music on the external sd card. And moving apps to sd doesn't work either. please fix this

i am also having the same 4g connectivity issues... i don't quite understand it because when i was using verizons service it never missed a beat no matter what rom i was using.. it's very strange. hopefully someone knows something as to why this wouldn't work.
