ARCHIVED: [DEAD ROM] ThundeROM V1.8.3 4/5/2011

[tmeader]

Somewhat off topic, but I only noticed this really happening since the 1.6 upgrade. I'm having quite a few issues now with the screen going on and off when on a phone call. It seems almost as if the proximity sensor isn't working correctly, but testing it out with the Z-test app, it seems perfectly functional. Is there any way that the proximity sensor can be outright disabled? I'm fine with just hitting the power button or something to lock the phone before putting it up to my ear. I don't have any replacement plan, but I'm guessing this might fall under warranty anyway? I'd REALLY like to not have to return the phone to stock and everything just to take the damn thing to the Sprint store. Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Proximity sensors on Android phones are notoriously crappy. In fact, didn't a blogger recently mention that he tested an Android phone that actually had a working proximity sensor and that was a major selling point for him? I'd have to look for the article, if i find it i'll post it because it was funny.

Anyway, long story short, we havent touched your proximity sensor. It's sucked from day 1 and will continue to suck. No need to return the phone

Cheers!

Understood, figured it couldn't possibly be anything from your Tom really, but thought you guys might have some suggestions... maybe a way to just disable it? Thanks for the quick reply

For all that like their sprint apps make sure to read the second post it is updated with a new flashable zip instead of having to install them one at a time,just remove any that you don't want after flashing.

Is 1.6.2 the exact same file size as the previous 1.6 download?

They are almost the same size i think of the top of my head that 1.6.2 is like 1mb bigger.

 

[dmcconnell68]

Weird, I just downloaded it, but it is exactly the same size as the previous one...88,053,518 bytes

If you're asking because of the MD5 sum .... that cant be updated until Bone jumps on and does it. We can upload the ROMs and crap but he handles the page.

 

[dmcconnell68]

No, it was the size that made me ask. when I first downloaded it, maybe the page for the original 1.6 was cached. I went back and did it again and refreshed the page and now it says 1.6.2 and the size is larger.

Thanks! Appreciate the hard work guys.

Thats weird ive been running it all day without problems. Are you trying to OC to higher then 748? Other then that the only other thing i can think is you have a app that is causing the problem.

 

[tootseroel]

i think it maybe that overclock widget sets itself at 806 on boot

That would be it, i can run at top OC speed but can't boot anything over 748 you have to slowly work your way to higher speeds.

I would check the connection cause wifi is working over here. Just double checked to make sure.

Thanks to KSmithInNY and Beezy for the update; you guys are the best-- really appreciate your hard work!

Quick Question: After installing the latest version of ThundeROM, is it ok to delete previous versions from the SD Card?

Thanks, in advance, for your thoughts.
