Thanks Kendotelie, I didn't think to check High Brightness. :-)

Sent using my Evo Shift powered by the latest CyanogenMod.
[EVO Shift 4G General] VICODAN:
so when you flashed supreme your screen problems went away? very interesting.
[EVO Shift 4G General] kendotelie:
Yea, the screen illumination was flawless, no lag at all. I'm on 240 now and I haven't had any hiccups yet .

Sent from my PG06100
[EVO Shift 4G General] VICODAN:
That's good. Maybe you just needed a clean wipe. Hopefully you updated profile and prl while you were stuck on sense. :P
[EVO Shift 4G General] kendotelie:
o_O...thats a good idea.
[EVO Shift 4G General] VICODAN:
Yeah, every time I flash sense I do that.
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
It's been merged. I saw it last night when I was syncing the repo.
[EVO Shift 4G General] kendotelie:
Hey sparkso, now the opposite is happening. I was on 240 all day , then in the evening. I moved to 241. I wokeup this morning and went too use the phone and now the opposite is happening. The screen doesn't illuminate when the keyboard is pulled out. Not even by pressing the power button. It only comes on now if the shift is closed and the power button is pressed, bhut the screen doesn't turn off if the keyboard is pulled out

[EVO Shift 4G General] ravenwing:
LOL ok sorry bro :) .
[EVO Shift 4G General] kendotelie:
Looks like I was wrong all along. It was the flex cable going bad. More and more each day
[EVO Shift 4G General] thronnos:
I know I should flash it myself, but im really really busy planning a move. Does the latest nightly still have annoying script errors?
[EVO Shift 4G General] jesusice:
Not for me. But I've never had the scripting errors you speak of on any nightlies.
[EVO Shift 4G General] YoungCorruptionV2.0:
i've never flash any of the radio's that came up in the development section so i should still be running the old radios
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
Ok. Well everything is working great for me now on the newer radio's.
[EVO Shift 4G General] VICODAN:
Since I RUU'd to 2.2 I'm on the old radios and everything works fine. I don't really see much of a difference between the old and new radios. I do believe though that the new WIMAX radio is definitely worth flashing.
[EVO Shift 4G General] CrashV2010:
I did the same... left the old radio and flashed the wimax update.

On my Gingerbreaded Evo-Shifted Premium XDA App.
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
Why what's wrong with the new radio? The old radio is for froyo and you guys are all running Gingerbread
[EVO Shift 4G General] VICODAN:
Nothing. Just no noticeable difference between 1.07 and 1.08.
[EVO Shift 4G General] kendotelie:
hey there, if im having wimax issues, what might i contribute that to?
[EVO Shift 4G General] thronnos:
Another issue is that I've noticed and possibly the issue at hand. All, nightlies above 223 change my build number from GRI to GWK.
[EVO Shift 4G General] VICODAN:
Sprint's network, and if you are not in a stationary position. Also wimax radio version and out of date prl and profile.

---------- Post added at 01:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:46 PM ----------

That's not an issue.
[EVO Shift 4G General] kendotelie:
i usually get a great 4G connection at work. But lately its been lacking completely. Since i got the replacement phone, i flashed the most updated radio and wimax, and went flashed sense so that i can update the prl and profile....so i guess its Sprint
[EVO Shift 4G General] thronnos:
It's an issue for me because I've had issues ever since then. My dialer FC, script issues everywhere.
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
Old radio's/prl's. What I've been saying this whole time.
[EVO Shift 4G General] kendotelie:
are the most updated radios and wimax from July?
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
Yes the newer radios were leaked from the GB Release before it even came out. If you get a brand new shift or ruu to the latest Sprint GB update then those same radios will already be on your phone.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Evo_Shift:
Do nightlies change things that aren't listed on the Changelog? Like I saw that nightly 245 had no changelog, so is that basically the exact same build as nightly 243 or are minor things tweaked/optimized that are not given a place on the changelog? Until now I have only been using a new nightly if I see something that interests me in the changelog.
[EVO Shift 4G General] snoopjedi:
The changelog in CM7 itself seems to only list changes in the latest stable, from what I can tell.

After doing a little searching, it seems like checking review.cyanogenmod.com/#q,project:CyanogenMod/android_device_htc_speedy,n,z is the best way to see any changes (sorry, can't post URLs yet; silly). There hasn't been a commit on there for Speedy since Oct 31.
[EVO Shift 4G General] jesusice:
The nightlies are built by a buildbot so it will compile the nightly even if no changes were pushed (just generate a different mod version). I can't say for sure but I'm pretty sure that the changelog at http://cm-nightlies.appspot.com/?device=speedy does include all changes as it's an automated process just like the bot. So, no. 245 is not any different than 243.
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
There are lots of changes that are common as well. All the system apk's are constantly changing little by little. E.g. is if they moddify the frameworks base or any other common files, we will not notice those changes. Or cyanogenmod settings. There is little need to change anything for speedy in specific unless something needs fixed or a kernel update is needed.but the nightlies are changing. Just compare the sizes of each nightly, that's the best way to see how much they change.
[EVO Shift 4G General] VICODAN:
Regarding the radios I would say DEFINITELY upgrade the WiMAX radio.

Regarding the cellular radio it should be upgraded but a warning:

Make a nandroid backup with CWM first.

BE NEAR A COMPUTER WITH ADB.

I was running CM7 and I upgraded to 1.08 radio from 1.07 and then I was stuck at the white HTC screen. I had to run "adb reboot recovery" and restore from my nandroid backup in order to be able to boot my phone.

Regarding the WiMAX radio, there is definitely a huge speed increase from upgrading to the latest WiMAX radio. I didnt have the same boot problems upgrading to the new WiMAX radio either.
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
Wimax is only for 4G G ;) your not improving anything but upgrading your wimax radio unless your using 4G
[EVO Shift 4G General] VICODAN:
I know. I ran speedtest on 4G before and after the upgrade. Very noticeable speed increase.
[EVO Shift 4G General] c00ller:
I guess this upcoming change is based on the Gingerbread kernel source which HTC finally released recently? :)
[EVO Shift 4G General] drob311:
Keep guessing
[EVO Shift 4G General] Ron Overdrive:
CyanogenMod is AOSP based and has no dependency on OEM's for the kernel source. Only modded Sense ROM's depend on HTC to release the source code because AOSP kernels are incompatible.
[EVO Shift 4G General] cmags:
Has anyone noticed that the torch app stopped working with the latest nightlies? At least there past half dozen. I can't get the led to turn on unless i enable high brightness mode.

Sent from my Evo Shift running CM7 via the XDA app
[EVO Shift 4G General] trsix:
yes

cmags Has anyone noticed that the torch app stopped working with the latest nightlies? At least there past half dozen. I can't get the led to turn on unless i enable high brightness mode.

yes here too
[EVO Shift 4G General] drob311:
Its a nightly... Things get broken... It happens, it will get fixed.

A quick fix is to use the torch app from the latest stable release. Keep a copy of the apk on your sd and back the apk up using titanium backup...
[EVO Shift 4G General] VICODAN:
This should be like framed and engraved in stone on every page of this thread.

Sticky

[EVO Shift 4G General] Evo_Shift:
I would assume the developers would want to know if something is broken which is why I post if something isn't working. Is there a better place to post our results? Should this thread be only for praise that we get nightly builds? Where else should I go to find out what isn't working? The actual cm nightly forums do not seem to be used much.
[EVO Shift 4G General] jesusice:
Really the nightly thread is about any and all issues relating to the nightlies. They're so us addicts can have a place to discuss our issues. Like NA ;) If this were a stable release having the issue then it's encouraged to post it to the bug tracker but reporting bugs on nightlies causes unicorns to die so this is the best place to post those bugs.
[EVO Shift 4G General] drob311:
I wasn't saying to not post your finds/problems... I was politely telling him that nightlies are more prone to have issues. I even told him the solution... I apologize if I came off harsh, I wasn't trying to be harsh... :)
[EVO Shift 4G General] jesusice:
It's all about the smileys. Even though I hate them, gotta put the smileys in text or else anything said matter of fact gets taken the wrong way :) (see?)
[EVO Shift 4G General] :
Yeah I do !!!!:p
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
+1. No more thanks left for the day :), otherwise would hit the thank button lol
[EVO Shift 4G General] jesusice:
Has anyone tried the latest nightly? 253? I've tried enabled unlock with center ring in CM Settings and whenever I do unlock with the center ring my Shift soft reboots.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Evo_Shift:
I just tried it and had a soft reboot. Thank goodness for keyboard slide unlock :)
[EVO Shift 4G General] ratdog07067:
Anyone else getting a camcorder FC with nightly #253?
[EVO Shift 4G General] jesusice:
Yup, confirmed.
[EVO Shift 4G General] halrulez:
Ya tried it too. Didn't werk
[EVO Shift 4G General] c00ller:
It will be fixed in the next nightly http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#change,10162
[EVO Shift 4G General] jesusice:
Confirmed. The middle lock ring reboot and camcorder forceclose are both fixed on 254.
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
How funny, you come on my patch thread blaming me for the middle ring bug when your flashing the nightlies. :facepalm:
[EVO Shift 4G General] elkico02:

This works with the Hero I'm so happy.... Thankss
[EVO Shift 4G General] jsp254:
Does someone keep hacking the cyanogen download server? And the changelog site has been saying check back in 5 minutes since last night. No go on rom manager as well.
[EVO Shift 4G General] jsp254:
Spoke too soon. Link from cyanogen forum took me to it. Dl-ing now. 254 on the way. I'll try 255 later
[EVO Shift 4G General] halrulez:
I said when I flash your script the new. Middle lock screen is not viewable in cyanogenmod setting. I have no idea why you feel like you have to down size people. There is no need for a high and mighty tude from you dude. Chill out.
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
You mean like this?

Wow man. If the patch is causing that I had no idea. But you may want to approach people a little differently if your asking for something. Asking like this will not get you anywhere. Also like I said I just have not had time man.
[EVO Shift 4G General] crump84:

[EVO Shift 4G General] jesusice:
We could also stop being such douches to each other. The Shift is a small enough community that it's really in all of our best interests to be civil to each other.
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
I don't mind sparks, but sparky sounds like a dog name like old timer or something like that ("*whistle* *whistle* here sparky, come boy" ). Sparkles, well that just sounds ... I won't say what it sounds like because I might offend someone =D. Co is just for colorado
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
You right. I try to keep it pg. Other forums do have bickering but xda is such a large community in general that people are bound to disagree or offend someone at some point in time.
[EVO Shift 4G General] halrulez:
Once again. I didn't ask for anything from you. I let you know your script didn't work with the cm updates that is all. And when I said can't wait for a script for ics it was cause I was enthusiastic about your work. Now that this is all out once again let's drop it. I won't call you sparky. Can we chill now?
[EVO Shift 4G General] CrashV2010:
Btw nice profile pic looks real mature.

On my Gingerbreaded Evo-Shifted Premium XDA App.
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
I will drop it. I'm on the latest cyclonic with my patch and it works fine. The middle button is not a unlock button to unlock the lockscreen. I have it set to messaging and when I unlock it it goes straight to messages.

[EVO Shift 4G General] halrulez:
Yup. you go ahead and be serious 24/7. ill have fun.
[EVO Shift 4G General] jesusice:
I dunno why everyone's giving you such grief Hal, but you're alright by me. I think you kinda rule ;)

Phone development is srs bzness.
[EVO Shift 4G General] kendotelie:
is there anyone on 255 that has their phone randomly shutting down/not responding? i never get to see it shut down, but when i go to wake the phone up (tapping the power button when screen is off), nothing happens. i pull out the keyboard, nothing, press keys, nothing. i hold down the power button, nothing. i have to pull the battery and startup that way.

*at first i was going to blame this on a bad refurb that i received lately, but i had the refurb replaced for another 2 days ago. maybe another bad refurb?

[EVO Shift 4G General] chugger93:
So I'm on the 172 nightly from months ago....any worth whileness to go to latest? Any major changes? My phone is very stable and I'm happy with it, but if some of these newer nightlies have benefits I will upgrade
[EVO Shift 4G General] jesusice:
Yes, new features. Do it! Only issue is Torch has to be set to high brightness. Or you can restore the Torch .apk from your current nightly. Or use Tesla or similar app from the Market.
[EVO Shift 4G General] kendotelie:
any tips on how to resolve the issue of the "system not responding" message i get pretty frequent?
[EVO Shift 4G General] drob311:
Haven't ran into that issue yet. If possible get a logcat, upload it and put a link up.
[EVO Shift 4G General] c00ller:
Someone's Shift 4G was running nightly 200ish and whenever their Messaging app's Settings are opened it results in force close/wait to respond. As soon as that happens, the Messaging app can't even be opened after without seeing that force close/wait popup. I updated to the latest nightly and the problem still persists. I tried going to manage apps and delete data for Messaging, didn't fix anything. Is this happening to anyone else? I assume a full wipe would fix it but I'd rather avoid it if possible.
[EVO Shift 4G General] VICODAN:
No. You can try wiping /system, dalvik, and cache and flash the latest nightly or:

Run TI backup, wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, wipe system, wipe /data, flash last nightly, flash google apps. wash, rinse, repeat.
[EVO Shift 4G General] CrashV2010:
Or just go through cw and fix permissions
[EVO Shift 4G General] VICODAN:
Will not necessarily fix the problem.
[EVO Shift 4G General] jesusice:
Will not necessarily not fix the problem either ;)
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:

[EVO Shift 4G General] VICODAN:
sparkskang plz! LOL
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
That's not a bad name for a rom vicodan :)
[EVO Shift 4G General] notsointeresting:
So ill probably get a lot of critisicsm just for asking but here it goes.

As far as I know CM7 roms, when flashed, only affect the /System partition.

So in theory if I wanted to keep my apps and not do a full wipe would I be safe flashing a new nightly (on top of another older nightly) by just wiping the system partition

(as I always wipe system manually to be safe)

I don't really use AOSP often but I know ppl get gang raped about not doing full wipes on everything in Sense ROMs but I know they flash to /data too

Not bashing sense ppl tho I love u guys :)
[EVO Shift 4G General] kendotelie:
from my own short experience, wiping is always good, but flashing on top of an older nightlie should not be a problem. i actually remember reading that wiping isnt necessary with nightlies, so that you keep your apps...it would sure be a hassle if we constantly had to wipe and restore for nightlies,
[EVO Shift 4G General] cloverdale:
The cm update script wipes the system prior to flashing, so there really is no need. I usually flash a nightly on top of the current one, wiping only the cache and dalvik-cache, flashing, then fixing permissions prior to a reboot.
[EVO Shift 4G General] YoungCorruptionV2.0:
Nvm everyone answered notsointresting right before me lol
[EVO Shift 4G General] notsointeresting:
Thanks you, and the person above for the help. (And youngcorruption for the thought :D)

Yea I know it will wipe /system anyway I just have my inane superstitions :D

I've just had problems with 255 and wifi.

Thanks again guys !

Not trying to hijack a thread... but I have to ask.

Notso... do you have download links to any of your splash screens for the shift? I'm sooo tired of the stock splash.

The link you posted goes to the shift android development section.

As far as the splash screens, the main thread with the best/most splash screens has dead links to the download site. The one I'm looking for is the black and blue shift keyboard.
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
Dude, it's a stickied thread that I posted in the android shift development.

[EVO Shift 4G General] Evo_Shift:
That's quite the changelog they have going for the next nightly. I am excited to see what they have done with the Kernel for the Shift.

One question. Now that ICS is being worked on by the Cyanogen team does that mean basically that nightlies and work on CM7 is going to be stopped soon or will they continue with older versions?
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
As far as I can tell there will not be as many devices at first that will be able to run ICS (CM9), or they will not have nightlies for ICS until they can get nightly builds for all the devices they possibly can. So I'm guessing they will continue to have CM7 nightlies until they reach a point they are comfortable with releasing CM9. But they are definately working on 7x30 devices which will be their main focus for CM9. The shift is a 7x30 device ;) As far as the kernel it's hard to say because there hasn't been any updates to the kernel as of yet. But that doesn't mean that they are not working on one, they just haven't released it on github yet.
[EVO Shift 4G General] kendotelie:
could this be the "sleep of death" that i see will be fixed in the next nightlie

*i know i said i might jump shift after going thru 3 phones now in a few months, but i love my shift. I love pullout keyboards

And then? :confused:
[EVO Shift 4G General] Evo_Shift:
Are nightlies busted or something?
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
Yeah the builds are broken because of merging ICS source.

[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
And it's CM9?
[EVO Shift 4G General] thronnos:
I don't think UKE is CM9 based yet.
[EVO Shift 4G General] VICODAN:
It is not CM9 but it is definitely full of AWESOME.
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
Please elaborate on what makes it so much better than the latest nightly. I'm perfectly happy and content on nightly #255, so I'm wondering why I should even switch. For cm9 I want a somewhat usable rom just like I'm sure the cm does as well.
[EVO Shift 4G General] VICODAN:
There are a lot of bonus features including some of the changes merged in to git.
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
I'm fine with my current setup but thanks anyways.
[EVO Shift 4G General] drone23lk:
I have one problem after flashing the CM instead of my Froyo 2.2 sense - videos made using the camera app do not sync using Instant Upload, and the Gallery app does not have the option to share them on G+.

Edited: OK, sometimes they do sync, but they do so pretty erratically, probably because of their size, so the lack of "share on G+" option in the gallery app is a slight problem. :-)
[EVO Shift 4G General] sparksco:
With G+ you need to select instant upload in the app settings of G+ itself (not gallery). A lot of times G+ won't start syncing until you run the app to do something. I think it's more of a app problem and not a rom problem...

Edit: I just noticed for mine the Videos upload was set to "wifi only". If you want to upload it on your mobile network then you'll need to change the settings in there.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Jedman67:

Redownload the file wipe /system wipe cache and wipe dalvik and try again.
