Questions and Answer Section:

Q.) Gallery wont load my pictures. It only shows black tiles, how can I fix this issue? A.) Go onto your sdcard and delete ".nomedia" from it. Then go into Settings....applications.....rom manager and disable "Rom Manager". Boot into recovery and wipe cache and dalvik. Reboot. Q.) I cant get a GPS Lock at all...How do I fix this? A.) GPS works for 75-80% of people right out of the box without needing any special help to acquire a lock. However there are the other 20-25% that just cant get a lock. To fix this issue you need to Odin back to the stock ROM (EL29 or FF18) Get a solid GPS lock on the stock rom. Then flash the ROM. You shouldn't have anymore issues with GPS there after. Q.) Help me...I cant get root access to work, How do I fix this? A.) Open the superuser app. Go to the wrench for settings. Then select security. Then go to automatic response and set it to allow from prompt. It will then work fine. Q.) I can not get texts or receive calls...how do I fix this? A.) You are experiencing LOS. Do a reboot of your device each time it happens. Or use tasker app to flash the LoS Fix on xda site

Thanks to all contributors for this project. It couldnt be possible without everyone's contributions.

ROM updated, still on 4.0.4 though, but I included some goodies, and some bug fixes.

 

[thenameisnigel]

Who's ready for some 4.2 goodies? My build is seeming to move smoothly.

Also, it is AOSP, NOT CyanogenMod 11? I don't even think they have a version for 4.2 yet, but I merged trees, used Chris41g, and EpicCM's github as well as themuppets and cyanogenmod to build my AOSP tree downloaded straight from Google. If you want, I can push my changes to my Github immediately, or I'll just wait until tomorrow.

I've hit a error that I don't understand. But yeah, I was pretty angry that Jay closed it like a hour after I posted it, so when I figure out the source of the error, I'll just post it here.

Re: [ROM][CM]PandaROM 4.2

Alright, I made a empty file with notepad and named it the file that it couldn't build, and it's moving along well.

Edit: Actually I made it with Geany.

Re: [ROM][CM]PandaROM 4.2

Well I just had to track this down after the thread got shut down on xda, and it's great to see that you're making progress. I'd be happy to help check this out once things get more stable so I'll be keeping up with this thread Best of luck with this!

This just seems to good to be true lol. And all OP has to do is PM Jay and he'll unlock Rhett thread when the ROM is ready to be posted.

No boot , but at least I know it flashes. I think the ramdisk in the kernel has to be modified. I'm not a kernel wizard, but I've asked for someone to help me.

Sbrissen had a booting pre-alpha. Just freezes a lot. Maybe talk to him or Chris41g.
