Thanks...I've done that...no change. The problem is that it is pinging the server non-stop, even though I am set at push. Because of the way I have to connect with the server, I have a program running on my system that acts as mediator between the phone and server. It has an animated icon that shows me when that is happening. Prior to the fix, I had to manually connect once by doing a refresh but then was good to go for the day. You could see the occasional ping and then activity when something was being transferred. After the fix, the pinging is virtually non-stop.

As I mentioned, there was a problem like that in Froyo, and somewhere out here is a post I made that identified what was wrong with a link to a fix. So it's not new to me. I'll see if I can find it.
[Droid Eris Android Development] DoubleByte:
Thanks! I appreciate your looking into it. I've been leaving it charging, so no problem. I just thought I'd point it out.
[Droid Eris Android Development] hoodred:
Nope, just flash v7, same thing GPS not connecting with apps
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
I'm trying to work on the GPS issue just had a lot going on here. I'm going home today and then I'll have a little more time to be able to figure out what's causing the problem.
[Droid Eris Android Development] klobkelosh:
FWIW, I'm about to hit the 24 hr mark with 8% battery remaining, exchange fix applied, 3g and wifi on, normal to slightly excessive use, and following a battery recalib. That's as good as this lil eris has ever achieved (in fact it may be the best i have ever got). I can't help but suspect that your intermediary program might be the culprit...either way, awaiting the better fix, but if it never comes, I'm fine with it.
[Droid Eris Android Development] DoubleByte:
Well, it could be, but I rolled back to V7 without the fix and it stopped, added the fix to V7, and it started up again. It's definitely related to the fix. I have a large battery, but for comparison: from fully charged before bedtime (so minimal activity): without fix 96% after 6 hours, with fix 78% after 6 hours. That's overnight when the intermediary program isn't running. I am on wifi (3G is disabled since I am connected to a network)
[Droid Eris Android Development] klobkelosh:
I'm wondering if replacing the modified cm7 email.apk with stock android email.apk would solve your issue? I ran stock mail on omgb and it did not have sync issues for me. I don't know enough to build and sign an update zip, or I would try. I suppose you could also push the stock mail through adb. This is all assuming that the exchange fix was solely to the email apk. If anybody wants to try, I have extracted the stock app from omgb; just have to figure out how to post it.
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
The fix was solely to the email apk yes. I am finally back home now and will be able to work on things and test a little better now too :) I'll check in a little bit to see if a new fix has been posted and I also want to see if I can figure out what's going on with GPS. Hopefully I'll have something for you guys soon :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] DoubleByte:
The funny thing is that I think in fixing one problem, they reintroduced a bug that existed in Froyo. Same issue...it continues to poll in a loop, regardless of time interval settings. Hence the battery drain.
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
OP updated with Stripped 2 Hell V8.5 with GPS fixed. I'll update the vanilla ROM sometime tonight.
[Droid Eris Android Development] gemro311:
Thanks..will DL and test tomorrow .

Sent from my Flying Eris
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
This won't work on a Charge :eek::rolleyes:
[Droid Eris Android Development] gemro311:
Now you tell me...OMG . Hehehe
[Droid Eris Android Development] gemro311:
CS... This is so fast and lean. GPS works

Thank you
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
Have there been complaints about wifi in this thread and I've not noticed them? I have had no problems here but I don't remember seeing anyone mention it either...
[Droid Eris Android Development] chlila:
CS,

I was having problems with Wi-Fi cycling on V7 and V8. I also had problems on GSB 3.4-ODEX, and posted in that forum. I also asked a question about Wi-Fi cycling in MacRom's thread, and there, hallstevenson posted a suggestion that worked. He suggested I look into the Wi-Fi sleep setting and changing this helped my Wi-Fi stop cycling.

Thanks!

Love your ROMs!
[Droid Eris Android Development] MongooseHelix:
Hey CS, wanted to give you a heads up that the latest exchange sync fix just got merged today. http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#change,5700

I don't use wifi all that often but agree that making sure it is set to never sleep keeps it from switching over to 3g whenever the screen turns off and then having to connect back to wifi when you turn it back on.

Thanks for fixing the GPS although, like wifi, I don't have much need for navigation these days. I did notice it being flaky the other day when I decided to turn it on when I was driving around town. It will be nice knowing that I can turn my brain off and let our future robot overlords tell me where to go when I flash to v8.5+ :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
I'm working on an update now. Still resyncing with CM. I will be posting updates for Vanilla, Stripped and possibly a Stripped Ghost Rider version as well. They will not be posted tonight but possibly tomorrow as long as everything goes well. These will be the final updates on this ROM. Thank you everyone for your support and I'm glad you enjoyed my ROM. Final update coming soon.
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
Thank you mongoose. That will be included in v9 ;)
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnok31:
So I just installed the latest stripped version and everything's running smoothly but I'm noticing that the backlight for the navigation and send/end buttons don't light up. Is there a fix or setting for this that I just overlooked?
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
Go into settings>display>brightness and turn on auto brightness then turn it back off and the sort keys and talk and end/power buttons will light up again. :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnok31:
Nice......that did the trick. Thanks and keep up the great work :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
Hope to have V9 up sometime tonight or early tomorrow morning. So far everything seems really good. ;)
[Droid Eris Android Development] MongooseHelix:
Good to hear! Looking forward to being able to control the brightness by sliding across the status bar...does it seem to work well?
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
I honestly didn't try it :o lol. Was trying to check everything else and forgot about it...

OP updated with Vanilla and Stripped 2 Hell and post 2 updated with Ghost Rider Edition :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
Just wanted to say a quick thank you to everyone that has donated... It's very much appreciated :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] MongooseHelix:
I imagine there might be just a few things that are higher priorities to test out than a small feature that is sure to go unused/unnoticed by most haha. And once I get done fighting with my laptop, I'll be flashing v9-stripped.
[Droid Eris Android Development] labnjab:
Trying out v9 stripped so far so good
[Droid Eris Android Development] labnjab:
Quick question. I am trying to use the htc mod keyboard on this and it keeps force closing on me. I have tried the one from the op and also tried one from gimpsta.com I will try another one from there maybe a different version and see if that works otherwise I am not sure what else to try, does anyone have any advice, if need be I can reflash the rom too, thats a last resort tho.

Thank you for any help in advance.
[Droid Eris Android Development] labnjab:
Never mind I got it, had to reflash the rom and then used the one in recovery and it worked out great :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
Sorry.... I fell asleep early last night. Lol. The one in the op didn't work? I'll look into it.. that one should work. Glad you got it straightened out though :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] labnjab:
No worries, I should of mentioned that it was the one from the op that worked i thought I had wrote that lol.
[Droid Eris Android Development] workshed:
No prob bud, but be careful, you don't want the girls to know we get along just fine :) :p ;)
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
Good point.... then no one will like me either :p :D lmao
[Droid Eris Android Development] workshed:
DOH! :eek: LULZ
[Droid Eris Android Development] labnjab:
Couple of questions

What's the best supercharger number to use?

And has anyone used Collins battery tweak with this?

Thank-you for any help. :-)
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
I haven't used the supercharger scripts. Workshed could probably answer that better for you I don't even know what the options or numbers are ;) lol. I used the battery tweak early on in this ROM but I don't think I've used it since V2. I always used option 1 or 2 with that and I did notice a difference when I used it but I haven't used it anymore since then. There's really no reason that you can't use it though. :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] labnjab:
Well if your not using it then all I will do is recalibrate my battery and see what that does and I'm trying supercharger number 9 on both our phones but may turn it off to see if it is really making a difference.

What about compcache, heap size, and all that I thought I read stock works good I just can't remember what stock was.

Sorry so many questions :-\ :-)
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
No worries on asking questions :)

My setup is as follows and the default ROM settings:

Min CPU 245 (some people bump this to 480)

Max CPU 604 (some people bump this to 710)

Governor ONDEMAND

Compcache disabled

JIT off

Surface Dithering off

Asset purging off

Lock home in memory off (Some using LP have better experience with this on)

VM heap size 32

Hope this helps you out. I've had no problems with lag or anything using these settings. I know some people bump the CPU settings for playing games and I think for music but I rarely do either of those. I also use ADW EX launcher but haven't had any complaints about LauncherPro in a while either since adding the local.prop file as suggested in a thread by hungryman. If you're using the supercharger scripts and LP you might not have to use the lock home in memory option either... from what I've read anyway. :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] labnjab:
Thank you ill have to try those out. :-)
[Droid Eris Android Development] Spikelangelo:
I haven't had time time to flash your stripped 2 hell version yet but I've been waiting for something like that. Beside the cm wiki, is there a good resource for what you can remove/prune and what you definitely don't want to?
[Droid Eris Android Development] gemro311:
Great Rom..lean and mean . This is how all roms should be.
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
CM wiki is IMO the best resource for what can and can not be removed... Here is a good breakdown of everything

Exchange fix

Is it me or does Exchange still have a problem? Email is sucking over 50% of the battery when set to push. Unless I'm mistaken, that should be the leanest use of the battery. I don't think the Sync Manager fix is working correctly.
[Droid Eris Android Development] klobkelosh:
I'm at 4% with the sync manager fix, set to push just like you. I'm getting exceptional battery life these days. Strange.
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
No offense but you're the only one I've heard complain about the exchange mail. You sure the problem isn't your battery?
[Droid Eris Android Development] TheTod:
Hey all, Love this ROM...did I say Love this Rom? Bouncing around all over and got to this and not finding any problems...I flashed the Stripped version...

Question please, I can not get speech to text working. Got a keyboard with the mic on it but not working, I know this obvious for some here....pointers on how to solve? Option of going off of stripped version is not what I want to do...I don't need other things just the ability to talk into the phone....:) Wife does not listen, might as well talk into the phone... :) Thanks for any help!
[Droid Eris Android Development] doogald:
Not sure, but the first question is do you have Voice Search installed?

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.google.android.voicesearch&feature=search_result
[Droid Eris Android Development] TheTod:
Slow to think throught this...sorry

Ok OK...simple solution....duh. thanks.
[Droid Eris Android Development] DoubleByte:
No, no... don't get me wrong...I'm not complaining about battery life in general...that's fine. I'm only talking about the amount of the battery that email is consuming relative to other tasks. It used to be around 3-4%, now it's around 27%.

It's not just this ROM either...so I wasn't complaining about this ROM. It happens with all of the latest CM7 builds...shed's. tazz's. It could be something with our Exchange server...that's what I'm tryng to figure out.

UPDATE: See below, but I was overlaying the old code over the fix as part of restoring my apps.
[Droid Eris Android Development] MongooseHelix:
Have you looked at the logcat any? I would think if it was restarting/resyncing a lot or doing something else strange, you might be able to see that happening in the log. What percentage of battery is your display using...still the most?
[Droid Eris Android Development] DoubleByte:
Well, I think I have a handle on what happened and I have it fixed now. I believe that I was inadvertently overlaying old code on top of new code as part of restoring my apps, so this is my bad. Everything seems to be working now....% of email usage dropped from 27% to 8%.

So the moral of the story is:

1) Do more evaluation and research before posing a problem:o

2) Be careful what you restore from backup..now I know to use the missing app solution as opposed to all apps (which I thought meant user apps only, but apparently, it really means ALL apps).:eek: Actually, I have been doing this for quite a while...apparently, it didn't matter until now.
[Droid Eris Android Development] gemro311:
Thanks for posting your findings. This will helpful for all in the future.:)
[Droid Eris Android Development] Spikelangelo:
I agree it's quite good, I was just curious if there were additional resources. One can rarely have too much info.
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
Thanks for sharing this.. Glad it all got sorted out :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] TheTod:
Any one seen Google Voice will not allow for the setting up the voicemail? When I run the setup of GV I get the "carrier does not suppport" message. I have always done this prior. First install of Condemmed is the v9 Stripped which by the way has been working great. Love this ROM and thanks to for all who have been working on this.
[Droid Eris Android Development] doogald:
If you go into the Market, do you see "Verizon" as the last tab or "My apps"? I am suspecting it's "My apps".

GSB has this problem as well, and Workshed posted a workaround in his thread that may solve this problem, if you do not see "Verizon" as that last tab. From the market, install this app called "Market Enabler":

https://market.android.com/details?id=ch.racic.android.marketenabler&feature=order_history

Run it, go to "Settings list", long-press on "[us] Verizon (Verizon)" and choose "fake this provider now". When that is done, try setting up GV for voicemail again and see if it works.
[Droid Eris Android Development] TheTod:
Rocking on Condemned

Thank you much, that was the issue. Sorry about not finding this on my own...I kept reading about the Market issues but I was working just fine. The only issue was this GV issue. Interesting I have not had this before with other ROMS.

Anyway, thanks again and this ROM is working so great.
[Droid Eris Android Development] doogald:
I think that this non-Verizon tab in the market is rather recent in the CM7 ROMs. Thanks go to Workshed; I never would have known this unless I read that in his thread.

CCM7 V9.5

This version is only a test run for some of the tweaks I've added. If anyone wants to try it and send me some feedback feel free. It's not the stripped version... It still has all the system apps but half of the ringtones from Vanilla are not in it... It's a bit of a hybrid of stripped and vanilla. Once I get a chance to resync with source I'll do a full update of both versions. That will probably be posted Friday night possibly even sometime tomorrow night.

Condemned CM7 V9.5
[Droid Eris Android Development] MongooseHelix:
Downloading and backing up, then wiping and flashing...care to share here or in a PM what tweaks are included? Also, anything in particular to keep an eye on and report back about?
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
9.5 should be a little faster and smoother.. I've also removed the local.prop file that was added for LP and added it a different way. I ran LP most of the day yesterday and it seemed as smooth as ADW EX for me now. Incoming call response and the screen not coming back on during calls when you move the phone should also be improved. :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] MongooseHelix:
Flashed last night after removing/adding the apps from the ROM zip and gapps to get my own custom stripped version :D. No complaints so far...only problem was my own fault since I replaced Superuser.apk with the superuser_elite app, forgetting that the elite one is just an unlocker for the main app haha.

One thing that took me a bit to figure out is that vold mounted my fat32 first partition as /sdcard instead of the one I'm used to which is actually great news. I have off and on used an ext2 2nd partition and previously the ROM needed the last partition to be fat32 in order to mount it as /sdcard whereas recovery used the first. This led to me needing to format my card with a fat32 first partition for recovery(flashables & NAND backups), an ext2 2nd partition, and a fat32 3rd partition for the ROM(/sdcard). Now, it seems I don't need separate fat32 partitions which will be so much better.

Great work as always. It will be nice when I eventually upgrade to a more powerful phone but things this little Eris can do makes it much easier to wait for one I really feel is worth it.

Lastly, I updated your flashable exchange fix zip with the Email.apk that has the newer CM7 fix included and posted it in Tazz's Sense thread since some were having sync issues. They were using the original one you posted so I figured I'd update it...hope that's ok. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=14576139#post14576139
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
That's perfectly fine with me man. I don't mind at all lol. I'm resyncing things with cm tonight for an update on both vanilla and stripped so I'll probably have it ready tomorrow unless I can stay up a while longer. Started work at 3 this morning and its been 101 here today and I don't get along with the heat lol. Makes me more miserable than normal ;)
[Droid Eris Android Development] labnjab:
Wow you sound busy :-) phones been great today. Cant wait to see whats in store next
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
A little bit lol. Seems like thats kinda normal though.

OP updated with V10 Vanilla and Stripped 2 Hell.... Enjoy! Dalvik wipe only should be fine :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] Letitride:
LOL - silence & awe, looks like I'm among the first to post feedback on running the newest vanilla release V10, was running V9 & did only cache & dalvik wipe in recovery, after deleting the android folder - turned off Google sync. until everything else setup nicely & looked okay, flashed also C2C to free up internal memory & storage on the little devil - let it settled down & reboot after cleaning up a bit of unneeded apps (short of switching to the "striped" one). Market apps & everything lined up once I signed back into Google & flipped on Sync.

So far so good, smooth & no FC's, music playing, maps & gps, wifi & SMS okay (don't really use/need MMS) - gmail, pop3 mail, calendar & phonebook updated - battery life seemed very good thus far, calibration in progress - time will reaffirm but it looks like other recent GB release floating around, no problem getting a full day's worth of standby/run time - 20 to 30+ hours on a fully charged, fresh battery (mine came from the HTC Ozone @ 1500 maH).

I have the governors at 604/480 On Demand (up from 245 min.) set on boot ON - noticed that Compcache RAM as disabled and VM heap size at 48m (seemed to recall that RAM is being on @18% maybe and heap at 24m or no higher than 32m) - just curious if these are the new tweaks. Will leave them as is and run it for a while. Transition among screens very snappy & responsive, no FC's or black screens loading the weather widget.

Just wanted to thank CS for getting this ROM up to its fullest potential so fast & quick - it's hard to decide between this & Shed's GSB V3.5 (rolled back to V3.4 b/c of Asian language font display issues) ** as a daily use ROM.

Cheers !:)

** No issues with V10 here at all, but it's important as I do use "Translate" on occassion for a quick one.
[Droid Eris Android Development] csleverette:
So any idea on why I am having difficulties finding certain apps in the market that I am used to finding easily?

Examples: I had to restore from a backup my banks mobile app because it was finding it in the markte. Same for Script Manager. Just odd. :confused:
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
I'll check into that. I'm not sure which bank app you use but I didn't see script manager either... I'll figure it out though.
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
Thanks for the feedback. I've changed compcache to off since v7 or 8 and I thought it seemed alot smoother that way personally. Vm heap I changed in 9.5 and so far its been fine. I'm still testing back and forth between that and 32 for a final decision though :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] csleverette:
USAA if you want to search as well.
[Droid Eris Android Development] MongooseHelix:
Plan on flashing v10 S2H with some additional strips/replacements tonight. v9.5 has been good to me but since I haven't gotten everything set up on it yet, I'm not attached to it enough to keep me from trying out v10 :). Not sure if I'm the only one, but I really enjoy being able to adjust the brightness just by long-pressing the status bar.
[Droid Eris Android Development] CondemnedSoul:
I don't have it either. I'll do some looking around tonight and try and figure it out as soon as I can though. I tried using market enabler too to see if that helped but it didn't ... :(
[Droid Eris Android Development] MongooseHelix:
I didn't see either using the market app. However, when I went to their pages on the web market while signed in with my google account, I was able to get both installed that way. Now they show up under "my apps" in the market app.
