Root [ROM] CTMod 3.80 (04/07/13)

Is there a way for me to use your control panel on a different rom.

no

""
That wouldn't happen to be a HTC Evo design 4g by chance would it? I bought one off Cl (this time checking the esn before paying the seller). I'd love to see a ct mod for that!

nah, the Marquee is my main phone and MIUI V4 is the rom i was talking about. the Evo really isn't much of a upgrade for me.

ok, the logcats really don't say anything useful and I haven't been able to reproduce a single problem with the camera, launcher, messenger or chrome and I just opened/closed the camera like 30 times, switching between the icon and the button.

are you guys overclocking or restoring anything at all from another rom? setting the clock higher then your phone can handle will make it reboot, and restoring things from other roms will break the rom.

try just flashing CT 3.69 (make sure its 69 and not 68), after its finished boot up, don't touch voltage control or install anything. now try what you were having problems with before and see if it still does it.

I'm OC'ed only up to 1.2 Mhz, used TB to restore some user apps (not system apps). When I get a few minutes I'll follow ur recommendations and grab another logcat if needed

That"s prol it. My phone was doing the same thing when I hit power during anything. I did restore things and mess with voltage. It started glitching. Is that term still in use? lol. Anyway, wiped everything and took on 3.69 it fixed it, until after I made it the configuration it was (app WIse) with TI. That caused more of the same random (seamingly) reboots. Wiped some cache that helps.
So how are we supposed to get phones back to the way we like them (I like Go Launcher) without messing up everything, or sitting at the Play Store for twenty minuets, then setting all those apps over again?
Nvr want to seem unappreciative, I very much am. Have donated in the past and hope to be able to in the future. Great work Everyone. Glad you have the same phone has me now Blood Dawn. Hope the keep learning more. Down with The Apple losers. Those big cry babies.

theres a reason I have the rom installation wipe out everything and thats to stop problems from happening.

think of installing a new rom as installing a operating system on a computer, you don't try copying Program Files from Windows XP to Windows 7 and expect everything to work. so why try doing it with android?

if you don't want problems just install the rom, turn on wifi, do fresh installs of all your apps from the market and you should be good. if a new version of CT comes out you can probably backup some stuff and restore it after updating without issues but doing it when switching to completely different roms isn't going to work out.

Blood so are you telling me that i shouldnt do an advanced restore in cwm to get my data back that was backed up on a stock rom??? Maybe that was what broke my rom and makes it reboot... its doing it during text messaging single vibe then three which denotes a force close correct??? Then reboots... im usung holo launcher as my system launcher....

yes, thats what broke everything.

don't use backups that weren't made while on CT.

sorry for the noob question but I can't seem to find a good explanation. I understand how restoring a system app across roms with TB might be an issue given the symbiotic relationship of system apps and roms but how does restoring a random user app across roms mess up a rom, how is restoring different then getting from the market?
I'd hate to have to redownload 9 Innings mid season, but if it means stability for this great rom ...

...how does restoring a random user app across roms mess up a rom, how is restoring different then getting from the market?...

My best guess is this: when you download and install an app from the market or other sources, there's a bit of "handshaking" going on to let the system know what apps are there, or for the app itself to know what system resources are available. When you restore an app, it's already gone through the process, and carries over the info from whatever ROM was there previously, and freaks out when the handshake info doesn't match.

Put it another way, let's say I'm an app. If I'm told I'm moving from city A to city B, it's pretty easy to adjust to my new surroundings, regardless of the changes. On the other hand, if I'm living in an apartment and am told to go to sleep so I can be packed in a box, bet your bottom dollar I'm gonna start flinging poo if I wake up to find myself in a 10ft x 10ft cardboard shack. ;)

Hey Blood I've was trying to recreate the problem with the camera that some guys are having. and then it started happening. At first just random then it went away but now video won't work.. it freezes up when switching from camera to video. And the music player won't work either. No I didn't install anything. I believe it started after I moved the settings app to the home page into the tools folder from there it went down-hill. By the way it was a fresh reinstallation cuz I started getting a few FC's with the camera. I tried taking some logcats but not sure if I did it right, there pretty long. I'm not complaining its a cool rom I was just curious and now I'm trying to help. Hopefully these logs & screenshots help! Anyways thanks for all your hard work!

I forgot to say that all I did to start these problems was to keep starting each app one by one (Camera to video, then gallery, quickpic, gallery, then hardware camera button) in random order for about 30min. And again this was after a fresh install, no apps added I reorganized apps in alphabetical order in the app drawer, tested each app, and always rebooted after each step. No I'm not complaining, just trying to help! I'll check back later to see what you think. Thanks Blood!

thanks for clarifying. this is a great rom and I'm willing to use it even with the issues I'm having. but if it starts flinging poo I'm definitely going to have to go back to stock...

Pic messaging doesn't work on my Sprint phone.

thats cause the rom isn't made for sprint.

the next update there will be both a sprint and boost version.

Were my 2 last posts any help to you Blood? Just wondering if those logcats and screenshots shed a lil light or were they just jibberish lol. Hey this is a great rom & everybody really does appreciate the hard work your doing here! Thanks again Blood!

they really didn't say what was causing the problem, so I'm just gonna redo the rom with the sprint base instead of boost. I usually like working on sprint's more anyway and I should of just did it to began with.

thanks for posting them tho bro.

I get that as well with the play music app and stock (root or not; doesn't matter). So that makes me think it's more of a connection issue.




......come to think of it, I haven't had this since updating to FG11, or at least that I've noticed.

I downgraded back to the old baseband so im not sure if it could be that. I did try playing music i have synced into my google account and that actually gave me less problems. It was mainly the mp3s and m4as inside my sd card. But now im back to stock 2.3.4 and everythings working fine like it always did. I'll reflash this once blood updates it.
