CM is based on the Android Open Source Project, which doesn't include HTC Sense.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] k_nivesout:
Just an fyi, if you have been using the latest nightlies that have been based on 2.3.4, you have to do a full wipe if going to 7.0.3 as your downgrading from 2.3.4 to 2.3.3.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ucluglee:
Ok, I spent about two hours searching and didn't find what I was looking for, and ADD is kicking in and can't concentrate anymore.

I know CM7 is not Sense, but let me ask this. With a Sense based rom, you have an auto brightness feature, which I love. Full brightness outside and minimum at night. I see CM7 has a similar feature, but apparently you have to program different levels of brightness. Maybe it's really simple and I just don't get it, but is there a walk through somewhere to make this work like Sense? This is my only real issue with this rom.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] k_nivesout:
There's a post by byrong where he explains all the values in the settings and what they do. There are also a couple threads in which people have posted the values they use, sorry I'm on my phone and can't link to em but a search for cm7 brightness settings should pull it up. For me, the stock brightness levels were too low so I just bumped up the levels by about 20 if I remember right and the brightness has been acceptable. The transitions aren't the smoothest but I'm pretty sure that's getting fixed soon.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jpc0480:
Are there any significant changes in the latest build?

For whatever reason the changelog on the op won't open..
[Droid Incredible Android Development] marcmarshall:
I don't remember my screen waking with the volume button on other ROMs. Is this a CM7 thing? Anyway to disable it?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phaze one:
You must have the lockscreen disabled. Its not a CM7 deal, its just the way it works. Its the same with apps that disable the lockscreen.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] N-Forced:
The latest nightlies have seemed to have fixed that issue, although it's still not as good as sense; but it's 100% better than it was before.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Stu_Gotti:
So I'm excited I was able to get the Wiimote tethered to the phone, but now I'm wondering if there is a way to get the video out working? I used another DINC running sense and it was working, so I assume that CM7 doesn't support this functionality.

Is there a work around? How difficult would this be to program in to the next release?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JagoX:
Non HTC Sense ROMS do not support TV out. Youre SOL on that one.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Stu_Gotti:
Pretty straight forward haha, thanks! Guess it's a trade-off then...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] TheWhiteBandito:
I've had this problem on CM7 even since the early nightlies and haven't seen a fix on the latest stable. When I am receiving a call, it vibrates twice before the screen even turns on to see who the call is from. Does this happen to anyone else?

I'm using Chad's Incredikernel with no overclock, and a screen off profile at 245 min / 384 max.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] BarackMitzvah:
Not that I've noticed, ill test that one out, lol 384? That's pretty low, try raising that a bit, see if that's causing the issue

Edit : my bad, didn't realize it was a screen of profile, because your Inc would barely be crawling at that speed, but whatever, try it anyway

Sent from my AMOLED Incredible
[Droid Incredible Android Development] raptir:
I've actually noticed that with many different ROMs and kernels. You only really notice it if you're staring at your phone when it rings, but it seems to happen regardless of the screen off underclocking that chad's kernel has built in.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] xtremebrdr:
ok problem. dont know where it came from phone was running stable till this morning. on the cm7.0 all of a sudden was getting a lot of force closes. then out of no where the phone starts rebooting itself and not starting up. If i attempt to load into recover it brings up the white HTC incredible screen and beings to bootloop and not go into recovery. i can still access the fastboot recover clear storage and simlock options did my recovery go bad and if so how to i get this phone to boot again?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] pokeefe33:
Anyone else's screen get very hot?

I am running 7.0.2.1 and I've noticed if im using the phone for a few minutes, reading Facebook or Twitter or something to that effect, My screen gets pretty hot, hot enough that I know this is not normal. Anyone else having this issue. Not sure if this matters, But i am using the seidio extended battery.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] sylent101:
Weird question but does anyone actually still use setcpu? or is the battery life fine without it?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phydo:
I don't think it helps any honestly. And it will also conflict with the cm settings. Drop setcpu imo
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JagoX:
If you're using Chad's latest kernel (or any kernel for that matter that uses the SMARTASS governor) then you definitely don't need it b/c from my understanding, when the screen turns off it automatically clocks down the CPU.

Other devices (like my DX) still need to use SetCPU (or something similar) since the kernel is locked down...even with ROMs that have throttling builtin still need it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] sylent101:
Thanks for the replies guys
[Droid Incredible Android Development] moonsbabe:
I have searched. Maybe just too early for me today. But where the heck do I find Chads' latest kernel?

Ok never mind. If you spell kernels right everything pops right up!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] morph3k:
I use SetCPU just for the widget.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JagoX:
That's kind of a waste of resources ;)

Force close issues

Ive been having this issue within cm7 for a month or two now. I flash a build of cm7, stable and nighty, it runs perfectly for a week or two, then while using the browser it will force close. Its all down hill from there. I get google service framework process forces closes, GAPPS fc's, i try to get into ROM Manager and it get an error that says it couldnt get priveledged commands...every app force closes. Sometimes i can reflash GAPPS and that will make it run well for awhile, but the problem still comes back, fix permissions doesnt fix it, and ive done full wipes but i cant seem to go a full two weeks without this problem returning. Any ideas?:confused:
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JagoX:
My wife's Dinc experienced that EXACT issue earlier this week (running CM7.0.0 w/ Chad's latest). I tried fixing permissions & even tried to upgrade to 7.0.3 but nothing fixed it.

I was however able to at least run Titanium Backup Pro to backup all her apps, backed up her text messages & just reinstalled CM7.0.3 (wiped data/cache/dalvik/battery). So far so good...hopefully it doesn't wig out again. It did it out of the blue too for no real reason.

Strange :confused:
[Droid Incredible Android Development] justin8490:
Yea it is awfully weird. I cant put my finger as to what is triggering it. Ive tried what youve done, wiped everything and started off fresh, but for me i still get the force close blues. Hopefully it works out for her.....
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JagoX:
Yea so far so good. Have you tried a different kernel? I've had pretty amazing luck with Chad's but abysmal performance with Tiamat & Invisiblek.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] justin8490:
Right before I posted my issue on here i flashed invisiblek's kernal and so far so good, but its not been running long enough to know if it will resolve my problems, we shall see.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Cwoomer:
This sounds like the known pmem issue that is noted in the op of nightly builds. When you run for a while without reboot the phone starts acting up. This seems to be a google issue that had not been addressed yet. Lots of people see it. Most of us don't run into it do to how often we reboot. Google search for pmem issue with android os for better explanation. Hope this helps
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JagoX:
Ok but if that's the case then is it also an issue with the stable releases as well? I've had a Tasker profile setup (even before installing CM7) that reboots the phone automatically every morning.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Cwoomer:
As I said before the issue I am talking about is not a cm7 issue at all. It is a google os issue.

Is tasker actually rebooting your phone. If your phone is being rebooted every morning then you shouldn't be having the pmem issue.

I do not share this issue with you. I reboot my phone at least once a day and have no issue. I am running nightly #75. 2.3.4. Much more stable than any nightly has been on cm7. My opinion
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JagoX:
Funny b/c I've never experienced that issue with my phone (DX) nor has my wife's phone (Dinc) until I finally got her to let me put CM7 on it.

...and yes Tasker is ACTUALLY rebooting my phone (and her phone), why else would I say that if it wasn't? :P
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Cwoomer:
Geez. Don't ask for help then kill the guy trying to help. Check the link about the p mem issue. Also I was asking if your tasker was doing what it is supposed to do. I understand your profile is set to reboot. I was asking if it actually is rebooting. Damn some of you guys are nasty

By the way. You would nt have this issue on your (dx) read the link

http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/detail?id=3106
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Cwoomer:
Or this one about the issue being an upstream android gingerbread issue

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=15135
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JagoX:
Sorry didn't mean to come off rude, I've just never heard of that issue *at all* until you mentioned it. I've had a number of different ROMs on my phone plus stock, Redemptive Revolution & CM7 on the Dinc with no issues until now.

Tasker is rebooting though b/c I have to give the app root permission to be able to do it. I was also using the Locale Execute Plugin with Tasker before that ability was added into Tasker itself.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Cwoomer:
Hmmm. Not sure then. Maybe something different all together. Have used redemptive revolution also. If you read into any of those links it will tell you of plenty of people having the issue. Unfortunately rebooting seems to be the only way to fix it for now. I would update to the nightly. It's 2.3.4 and seems to be much more stable than the "stable". Plus being that I am using the nightlies and can tell you that I am not running into those problems (with a daily reboot that is). Hope this helps
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JagoX:
I'll have to think about that b/c I had a hard enough time trying to get my wife to ditch Sense LOL
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Samcobra:
I have had the exact same issue as justin and Cwoomer. It only happens in Cyanogenmod. What happens is, despite my regular clearing of cache and rebooting, after a while, all the basic framework stops working, leading to massive force closes everywhere. I haven't figured out a single thing that causes it or can fix it. It has been the case in every nightly and stable build of CM that I have tried. (and yes, I always wipe before install).

I don't know how recognized this issue is, but it really is something that needs to be documented and addressed, since eventually it can get so bad as to make the phone pretty much unusable.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] CUViper:
Use logcat to find the reason for FCs. Most often when everything is crashing, it's because /data/data is full.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] i8qbert:
Then what? Delete some apps?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] CUViper:
Yes. Most often, it will be one or two apps taking the lion's share of that space. Run "du -d1 /data/data | sort -n" to see which.

I should really post this as an FAQ somewhere -- it comes up very often.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] i8qbert:
I have never run into the problem, but that terminal command is handy!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phaze one:
Permission denied when trying to access /data/data. Suggestions?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Pons:
Try su first.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] i8qbert:
Just for clarifying...open terminal, type SU (this gives terminal super user status), then run the command.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] mystified:
welp. I just ran into the same problem today. First time I encountered it too. When I tried to reboot, it took like 5x as long to get back to the lockscreen. And then everything went down hill from there. I just had to flash the newest nightly to get my phone working again. I was previously on nightly 67.

Hopefully google fixes this problem :/
[Droid Incredible Android Development] scuzfly:
Upgraded to 7.0.3 last night

running Rover Blue theme

works awesome. No problems at all.

I'm finished updating every month. I'll stick with this until I get a new phone.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SR3TLAW:
Anyway to uninstall the included gallery app?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JagoX:
Isn't the easy answer always Titanium Backup? :D
[Droid Incredible Android Development] poontab:
Or just delete it from system/app
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SR3TLAW:
Saweeet. Thanks. guess titanium just works better. This is the ONLY cm Ive liked and really jusg need something to replace the timer/stopwatch/world clock app from sense to finish it off. Ohh and a good photo viewer?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] phaze one:
Quickpic for photos.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] AdhvanIt:
I know I'm a few days late here, but when cwoomer said the pmem issue isn't a CM issue, he was correct. It's a Google issue. The reason you haven't heard of it is because it only reared its ugly head with the release of Android 2.3.3. I'm assuming CM7 is the only GB ROM you've run.

On the other hand, the issue you're having is not the pmem issue. I'd almost bet money your issue is that /data/data is full. This is where all of your app data is stored. Not the apps themselves (stored in /data), but the data for them. Maybe allow moving some of them to SD or figure out which ones are eating up all that space.

Edit: Nevermind. CUViper clearly got that answered before I did. Maybe next time I should read all the way through before answering questions. :-P
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dieselhomey:
not sure if this is a CM7 issue or gmail.

When sending an picture via gmail does your email get stuck in sending....?

so damn annoying!!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kzoodroid:
sent 9 pictures yesterday by gmail no problem
[Droid Incredible Android Development] raptir:
WiFi or 3G? It can take a while to send over 3G.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dieselhomey:
seems like 3g only, wifi send it quick.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] raptir:
Yeah, 3G upload speeds are awful.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Timmah339:
so...now that gingerbread has leaked for the DInc WITH working 720p video recording...how long until it works its way into CM7??
[Droid Incredible Android Development] poontab:
^19 months
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Pons:
The answer is posted in the FAQ portion in the OP of the Nightly thread. 3rd Q, if I remember correctly.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Timmah339:
i wasn't asking for an actual eta...just thinking out-loud i suppose.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Samcobra:
I recently switched over to omfgbb and I've been running it for about a week without any of the same problems that I had with cyanogenmod. Does that run a different version of gingerbread?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] AdhvanIt:
No, it doesn't. It'll come up sooner or later.. Should, anyway.

I have personally never seen this issue with my device, but many have had varied issues with this on 2.3.3+. Some making it days without seeing the issue, others only hours.

Here is the official google bug report: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=15135
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SR3TLAW:
So is 720p not working with 7.0.3 ? I thought everything was was working and stable including the camera?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] AdhvanIt:
The camera is working and stable. As stated hundreds of times throughout the CM7 threads, 720p recording will not be available until we get an official 2.3 update for the Inc. While we did get a leak a few days ago, 7.0.3 was released before that dropped.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] raptir:
Wouldn't they also need the source?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] AdhvanIt:
HTC doesn't release source code. So no.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] poontab:
I thought they had to for kernels?

http://developer.htc.com/
[Droid Incredible Android Development] AdhvanIt:
kernel source, yes. HTC senseui is closed source though, so the code never gets released.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] raptir:
And the kernel source is obviously what we need.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] AdhvanIt:
not to start a pissing match. but if you read everything, i was answering the questions exactly as they were presented. =)

but yes, the drivers are contained within the kernel. =P
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Asterdroid:
Question to anyone who's NOT a nightly addict and has been running 7.0.3 since it dropped.

Have you guys noticed a rather rapid degradation in performance over time since you flashed 7.0.3?

I've been having awful lag lately, and it seems to have built over time since I originally flashed the ROM.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] BigD603:
Does GPS work in the latest stable version?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kzoodroid:
If you reboot daily the problem should go away. There is a bug in Android itself which causes a stability problem over time in all ROMs (even stock) which is fixed in version 2.3.4 which we don't have yet.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] Muerte_X:
I've been noticing a really high amount of battery usage with Wifi on and connected to an AP? Is this related to the ROM? When I would use a sense ROM, overnight, the battery would only drop a couple percent. Now it'll drop 40% or more, and the phone is completely idle.

I've attached my battery usage, you can see how fast the battery drains while on Wifi vs when it's off. This is with very minimal use.

This is on 7.0.3 with the 5.06 radio, using chads 4/19 kernel.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] AdhvanIt:
Your cell signal sucks. That eats battery horribly.

OS this a new occurance since flashing the latest radio or a new kernel? Your best bet really is to stick with the 07.28 radio that your device shipped with.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] raptir:
No, you were splitting hairs when it was obvious what I meant.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JagoX:
You could try the 11.19 kernel too. I had iffy performance with battery life with the 7.28 kernel on 2 separate phones with CM7 & Chad's 4/19 kernel. Upgrading to 11.19 improved it by a good amount.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Muerte_X:
I think I had the best signal with the 4.08 radio. I realize the signal is pretty bad at my house. My overall battery life is affected, I'm sure. But I'm really only concerned with why the Wifi seems to draw so much power when connected to an AP. Does the cell radio software control the wifi power consumption? I haven't been using a sense ROM since around 11.19 was released.

Is the wifi power consumption controlled somewhere in the kernel? I only ask because I don't know if the drivers are part of the OS, the Radio software, or the kernel. I can't say for absolute sure, but I've noticed the wifi using a ton of power pretty much since I've started using CM7. I haven't made any comparisons between kernels. Though I used to always leave wifi on, and have only recently tried turning it off and noticed a pretty unbelievable increase in battery life. Then I thought to compare battery life with and without wifi on.

I haven't tried any other ROM's in a long time. Before that was the Warm2.2 (not the Z version) and had way better battery life than I do now.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] AdhvanIt:
WiFi is controlled by both the radio and the kernel. A drop in battery when using WiFi is perfectly normal. If you're so concerned about overnight drain, plug the device in or turn off WiFi and cell data unless you're using it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] AdhvanIt:
FYI. 07.28 and 11.19 refer to radio versions, not kernels. Huge difference... even in how they're applied (kernel is flashed through recovery, radio through hboot). Wording these things wrong might confuse some people.

Flashed this last night for the first time and I'm loving it so far, a couple questions though that I couldn't find through searching:

also, has anyone found/made a red theme that doesn't skin any app icons?

thanks in advance.

Does anyone know of a fix for the GPS in 7.0.3? I use endomondo to track my bike rides, but ever since I flashed 7.0.2 and 7.0.3 the gps just won't track.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] leeroyjenks:
my girlfriend's incredible just got recently added to the CM7 list (i flashed it on there) and did everything exactly as it was supposed to be done, but we're running into some problems.

The most important problem we've come across is the mms isnt working. She receives them (hardly and after a while with no notification) but she can't send them at all. When she tries to, she presses send and the message disappears. When exiting the app and returning to it it shows the picture in the type field and not send.

WHAT SHOULD I DO?! Kind of lost. Tried deleting all other messaging apps and tried fixing permissions and nothing.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Jbarrs12:
