[ROM] Harmonia 2.09 18July12 (IHO Gingerbread)

[hpscott]

I could look into it, what are the most popular audio book apps?

I use Akimbo for personally owned audiobooks, OverDrive for audiobooks borrowed from my public library, and DoggCatcher for podcasts. All three of these apps have trouble tracking audio progress in any Gingerbread ROM I've tried for my Optimus V.

Thank you so much for considering this!

Sounds like a library problem, can you pull a logcat for each of those apps and p.m. me the results?

Okay so ran a logcat for DuggCatcher and this is what I got.

It looks like the problem is a connections error, so it most likely is a library problem.

[... code I don't understand ...]

It looks like the problem is a connections error, so it most likely is a library problem.

You're way over my head here, but please know that I appreciate your effort!

It turns out that DoggCatcher has a feature under the Advanced menu specifically to address this bug; it is called "Seek bar hack." It says it's for "some devices," and it specifically mentions "CM nightly" as an example. I tried it, and it corrects the problem for me -- the seek bar (referred to as audio progress previously in this thread) now works. From what I understand it basically does an automatic mini-seek when audio starts, which I've already found seems to get the seek bar to work.

I'm not aware of such a hack built into Akimbo, and it's very unlikely that such a feature would ever be built into the OverDrive Media Console. But, the way I listen to audiobooks it isn't such a big deal to manually do a 10-second seek forward and back whenever I start playback because in one listening session I stick with the same book. Conversely, this was a hassle with podcasts because often I queue up several into a playlist, and it's easy to forget to do the manual seek hack as each one starts to play. Losing one's position sucks!

Anyway, it seems like I'm in a workable situation now. Of course it would be sweet to get the underlying bug fixed, but I don't want to come off as nagging any developers based on how much impressive work you all have already done!

My phone won't ring or vibrate. The call screen comes on, but no sound. I tried it with ringer on, and vibrate on - nothing. Any idea what might be causing this? I don't think it's a hardware problem because the speaker works.

Retry with a full wipe.

How to backup after install

I love this rom, thanks.


However after a few moths it starting getting slow, probably app updates.

I did a fresh wipe and re installed all my apps and it is awesome again.

Is there a way to backup up the whole system and restore it? I know titanium back restores apps, but I think I want to backup the rom,

Basically I want to take of backup of the whole system, apps and all and this way I can restore it. I also use link to sd so I want to back that up.


What is the best way to do this? How can I basically take a snapshot of my phone and restore it.


Thanks

Bob

My idea: Fresh install, install all apps you want, then Nandroid the install.
Also check out ChronMod A2SD++ Here[SCRIPTS]CronMod-A2SD/D2EXT/INT2EXT (updated 09/19) - xda-developers
It made my optimus incredible.

Re: [ROM] Harmonia 2 (IHO Gingerbread) See first post for updat

ROM is working pretty well. Had issues with package file errors and other mysterious install/Play problems , reflashed several times -- but now using MarketFix and Link2SD for *everything* with a large FAT32 sd-ext (for some reason, FAT32 seemed to work better than ext3 -- but maybe that's my imagination).

So... there is one thing missing. The original OV dialer let you send a text message for an incoming call. The phone app in this ROM does not have that feature. If I can get the APK for the original phone app, or a pointer to a free (ad-less?) alternative, that would be great. Tried Reject++ for a bit, but it is just a trial -- and frankly, I think the stock app looks better.

I was also missing the stock Weather/News app (hog or not), but thankfully this forum had a pointer to it. So the last thing missing is just need a way to send message in response to incoming call...

A nandroid is a complete system backup that's made in the custom recovery/backup and restore/backup.
There stored on the SD card in the "clockworkmod" folder.
It would be a good idea to copy this folder to the computer in case of accidental erasure of the SD card or corruption of the SD card.
The nandroid will be an exact copy of everything you have done to the currently installed ROM. Same background, apps in the same place etc, etc. Everything just as you had it when you backed up the ROM.
Very similar to a restore point on a computer.
Just don't change the format of your partition on the SD card or when you restore the nandroid backup it will not recognize the apps that where linked there. Even if you restore all the exact same apps after you change the format.

My phone is Optimus S (Sprint), ZVJ band, Xionia recovery, whether it can install Harmonia, thanks

Yes it will work on your phone but you'll need to use the zvd-zvj patch for it to use your radio and the home and menu keys will be swapped its but pretty easily switched back

Tapatalk'n it from my VM670 running OM-Mandylion IHO on LS670ZVJ firmware

 

[PuhPow]

i tried installing from 1.9..... i wiped everything as listed. when installing the rom i get aborted error.

the big problem... i sold the phone to a friend and now its stuck at the LG logo.... i failed to make a backup (forgot his SD card had no backups, and i deleted mine.)

i think its because im running clockworkmod 5.0.2.7 but since i cant boot up, i cant upgrade it.

any ideaa?

If you have the Androjd SDK installed on your C: drive and the LG USB drivers installed, then plug your phone into the computer and open a command prompt. Type in:
adb devices.
If it gives a serial number after, your good. We can insall a new revovery thru ADB.
If you get "no device found" you will need to use the KDZ unbrick guide by sammyz.

If you can still boot to recovery, you can download and install a different rom. Keep trying gb roms until you find one that will install. Once you get any rom to flash, then it is safe to install a new recovery through the flash image gui or adb. If you can't get a rom to flash with your old recovery, you can also try to install a recovery.zip to get a new recovery on there. I think the first method is probably safer, but the second method may work in a pinch. Thee downside is that if you bork the recovery without a working rom, it will be more of a pain to fix.

 

[AndyOpie150]

If he's stuck in the splash screen, it means he has already tried to get into the recovery but can't.
That's why he needs to figure out if his phone is even recognized by adb. If it is and he has root then we can get a recovery flashed thru adb with shell or fastboot commands.
If adb doesn't recognize his phone and or he has no root then the KDZ unbrick is the next logical step.

Re: [ROM] Harmonia 2 (IHO Gingerbread) See first post for updat

Hello, I did a thread search because I'm having issues with the MMS. I used clockwork to get the rom on my device. I'm about to try flashing again.
Is clockwork alright?

Very nice job! I've been using it a week now with only minor problems, usually fixed by restarting. This is running a bit faster stock than my previous ROM.

Question, how do I stop my gallery from syncing with my google+ account? I have a ton of pictures on my google+ that I don't want on my phone, but there is no way to delete them on my phone..
