Root [ROM] Angry Bean / CM 10.1 [build 08.08.13]

I have a question will either version work? I haven't noticed many problems except for battery reporting. Sense I am making a post here is my report on the extended battery issue. The battery reporting issue still exists but its not that bad. Now I can have the phone running for a day and a half with no issues. Only thing that I don't run is Google Now. Also I purchased a dock and I noticed it has docking support. It has a little chime that it produces, it doesn't bother me at all. Then it gets stuck in landscape mode. A simple un-dock fixes the issue. Other than that no other issues.

I'm curious, where in Battery Monitor Widget did you get it to display the kernel battery mah?

Steps will depend on app.

Click settings

1st click battery.
2nd click calibration
3rd click mah
4th delete entry
5th delete what ever it has, put zero, then OK.
6th back out one page.
7th repeat steps 2-3. It should retrieve it from kernel.

Hopefully the pictures are in the correct order. Also if you have anymore questions, please reply to my post.

I'm getting 25 percent battery usage from "media server"

Any idea why or what that does?

I know media server on different applications means whatever Media files on your device can be streamed on other devices for example; media streaming from Windows Media Player to a ps3. I know I have that problem eating up my battery. On other Android devices that has media streaming there should be a setting on Android settings that disables media streaming. For some reason the setting looks like it is not there or disabled were actually should be. I don't know if you're able to touch the media server on the battery stats page that should be a way to disable it but I bet its not there.

Thank you for the very detailed instructions. When I get my extended battery this week, I will check this. What if you set this value to the mah of your extended battery? Since it seems like this value is an override of the mah provided by the phone, maybe putting in the extended battery's mah will help.

Flashing this should fix MMS, Just gave it a try by first flashing the generic VMM Zip, rebooting and then flashed the fix. Just got a pic back from a friend in response to one I had sent him.

MMS-apk_Fix.zip


Unfortunately this didn't fix anything for me. I switched to 4ext, wiped all, then flashed all three files. Rebooted, and flashed the MMS fix in recovery and rebooted. I still can't send or receive MMS. Whats weird is that I get a notification that I have a MMS, but when I go to Chomp (or the stock messaging app) it doesn't show up there. I also had a problem with the stock keyboard. I'd try to reply to a txt using it, and I'd get an error, and the keyboard wouldn't show up. I think Google now stopped working, though it was a bit too fast for me to see, and I really have no idea why it'd affect the keyboard. At any rate, I managed to install swiftkey, so its not a huge problem.

I have an 4000 mah battery and replacing the value had no affect. I quit using the app.

MMS-apk_Fix.zip

I am not having very much luck with the fix. Maybe I am doing something incorrectly? I did the following:

-Cleared application data for Voicemail
-Went into 4ext, Flashed the CM10.1-MMS-VMM.zip
-It automatically rebooted back into android
-Went back into 4ext, this time flashed MMS-apk_Fix.zip
-It restarted back into android
-I cleared application data for Voicemail once again

I tried sending a few picture texts, using the stock Message app. Two of them went through, but it didn't resize my picture -- it sent the raw image, so it had to transfer about 400k each time. (it used to resize my pictures to about 640 x 320 or so, shrinking them down to 50kb each)

The third time, I decided to send something to my mom, but it just left hanging, with no indicator on the 3G that any data was being transmitted.

Clear app data for Messaging, not Voicemail. The Voicemail app does not handle your MMS.

Glad to know I'm not the only one having trouble with MMS. I'm in the same boat with the fix. It doesn't do anything for me.

Either you can completely reflash the ROM and just flash the "AngryBean-VVM.zip" or, you can flash the MMS-apk fix, then wipe app data for the Messaging app.

Thanks mate, but that's not working for me. I flashed all three files the day before yesterday, when I was trying the ROM out for the first time. MMS doesn't work for me no matter if I flash all the files, or if I use the "fix."


I suppose it wouldn't hurt to give it another try, but its no exaggeration when I say I've done it at least a dozen times trying to get MMS to work.

*edit*

So I can confirm that this still isn't working for me. MMS isn't working on a straight new flash, nor on a new flash with the MMS-apk fix with the data wipe.

That's odd. So MMS doesn't work for you if you just flash the ROM and nothing else? Have you tried going to voice dialer, saying "Open APNs" clicking on that and checking the Sprint listing, then rebooting? That's the only other way I can think of, sorry man.

Also make sure your WiFi is off when you're sending, just straight 3G. Didn't know if you were already doing that or not.

Nope, it doesn't work when I just flash the rom. I've also checked the APN, and it hasn't been selected a couple times after flashing, but I've selected it and it still doesn't work.

I do havemy wifi on though. I don't have 3g in this area so having it off isn't really an option for me. Is that a CM thing, or what?

Okay, first you need a 3G connection to download/send MMS messages, so there's your problem. Also, on the 4.2.2 ROMs I've tried, you need to have WiFi disabled and ONLY 3G enabled for it to download. It doesn't automatically download like sense ROMs, you need to enable 3G yourself before it can download or send.

That's a shame. Guess I'll be heading back to Mobsters ROM then. I hate to do it, because this ROM rocks, but I never had a problem getting/sending MMS while on Mobster. Thanks for the help though. Its nice to finally get it figured out, even if its bad news.

Thanks, I think the "VMM" in AngryBeanVMM made me think it was supposed to be the Voicemail app.

I will give this a shot.

For me, I used the original Angry Bean Voicemail app (flashed twice), used voice dialer to open APNs and select Sprint, made sure the correct address is on the MMSC line and everything works fine. I'm not normally the lucky one so I guess I'm very thankful right now.

I can't find the thread for the original Angry Bean voicemail zip so if anyone needs/wants it I have it shared on my skydrive: http://sdrv.ms/17muGSF

I hope this helps anyone.

Posted a new Build. Still no progress on the 4g icon or HDMI. Disabled MHL until or if any more progress has been made. Probably will help with any Dock issues. Don't have one so not yet tested. Also tested with the new radio's from the last OTA and was a no go. Need to double check the lines in the release tools are OK.
