Is anyone able to run the my verizon app? Under CM7 I cant get either the modded apk or the not in the market yet but official one from droidlife to run. Both FC with a system maintenance message.

I've been searching for a couple days and have tried fix permissions, uninstall as opposed to upgrade, and the verizonssoengine.apk

It must be running for the rest of the known world since googling site:http://xdaforums.com "my verizon" "system maintenance" yields no results

WiMax is what Sprint calls 4G. WiMax and LTE are 2 different things

No, thats not a storm. Its just my Thunderbolt layin down this post.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] loccoelf:
So if I turn on wifi and reboot while it's on does it fix it permanently or temporarily
[Thunderbolt Android Development] raziel36:
With the fixwifi.zip, it theoretically should be permanent. I've had times I was able to switch between 3G and WiFi freely, without issues, but it's not consistent enough to call it fixed yet.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ddarvish:
augh.... cant wait to have this rom with a proper RIL working. I am so over sense and froyo.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] :
+1. Sense is ****.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Futur Innovations:
++1 I'm not gonna upgrade until either CM7 comes fully to the Thunderbolt, or HTC gives Verizon a dual core beast like the Sensation. Or both :] CM7 on a dual core HTC device...only a taste of true awesomeness. Those are the only things holding me back from upgrading my DInc.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Travar1410:
Ok so over night I had went from 100% battery down to 77% battery.. I didnt turn the phone on or anything , and it didnt reset so, why so much drain on the battery from doing absolutely nothing? The other ROM i came from would only go down from 100% to 96 or 97% overnight. something must be draining it pretty bad for that to happen. I love this ROM though, so I'd like to keep using it but I cant take the drain on battery like that, especially from doing nothing.

I don't have 4g in my area, is there a setting where i can turn that off that may help with the battery life?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] xdpurp:
Settings > Wireless & Networks > Mobile Networks > Network Mode > CDMA / EvDo auto
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Travar1410:
Thanks dude
[Thunderbolt Android Development] slammed:
What kernel are you running? may want to change that to help battery life.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] revolt1:
can you provide the link for the kernel that works best for battery life
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dlongb13:
I use the normal kernel from imyosen and my battery life is pretty good.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] revolt1:
I'm using the extreme 1.2.8 for cm7

is that the one your talking about
[Thunderbolt Android Development] theyownus:
To get GPS back use Rom manager to back up cm7 then restore to stock backup. Get a solid gps fix then restore your cm7 backup. Worked for me several times. Found the solution in this thread many pages ago...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] PorscheGuy:
While you're booted into your stock Sense backup you should also clear your GPS first with the EPST command ##GPSCLRX# (dial that string in the Dialer and press Call) and then open up Google Maps to get a lock/fix. Not 100% sure anymore what exactly that does but we had to do that on the Evo to get GPS working with CM7.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] wakestrong:
Wow CM7 is awesome! I love how smooth it is.

I just have 2 issues I need to address:

1. I can't load my gmail account? is this because I need Gapps? how do I get this?

2. I'm trying to get 4G and cant load the stock radio 1.12.605 I renamed it to the P whatever.zip but it shows Im still on 1.16?

If I could get these two issues fixed I would be one happy bolter
[Thunderbolt Android Development] emarusamun:
Gapps in rom manager. 4g is iffy and a non issue for me as I'm not in 4g area, so idk bout that one. Although I did install new radio. Rename PG05IMG.zip and put on root of SD then boot into bootloader after it scans it, up volume to install it.

First and foremost I <3 Me some CM goodness and thanks go out to all that work hard bring it to us. I realize the TB is still quite new & I am already using CM as a daily driver ... It will only get better folks.

I come to this thread to see if / when any progress is made. I can't believe after all the test4 is 3 shenanigans the file have not just been renamed. Slayher and co. must be having quite a laugh over this.

Let's us pray that Test5 is named Test5 for all our sanities. Godspeed
[Thunderbolt Android Development] raziel36:
Usually, I could see your point... the technical questions, yes, try to give a quick answer or a link to the answer. This particular question seems to be the issue. Mainly, I think, because it's so damn trivial and has nothing to do with the rom, itseft. Not to mention, as I've stated previously, if you really can't account for an initial test *just* being named "test", then maybe you're not ready for flashing test releases of a rom on a $600+ piece of equipment.

Keeps force closing when pressing sound in settings?

i keep trying to go into the sounds settings within the settings menu, but it keeps making me force close. every other option i can go into fine, just not sounds, and the vibrations on the 4 bottom touchpad buttons are getting annoying. any suggestions?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] 00negative:
Did you try fix permissions to fix sound issue?

Other go to cyanogen settings, input, haptic feedback, and uncheck top one
[Thunderbolt Android Development] qman66:
where can i get the wifi fix?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] vypurr:
He means that you should use maps or GPS status to get a good GPS signal, and then restore your backup.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] lpd0084:
I use GPS status. It works pretty good for me.

Pity the noob as u were pitied in ur noobishness
[Thunderbolt Android Development] qman66:
uve had it working? when i send or get a video call it force closes
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Travar1410:
The camera app isnt so hot on AOSP.. what else can someone recommend for a better one? I cant even find where to turn the shutter noise off, and its super loud..
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dickenam:
Use Root Explorer, pimpin and go into System --> Media --> Audio ---> UI and rename cameraclick.ogg to something like "cameraclick1" or "cameraclick!" .ogg

Minus that annoying ass sound, the AOSP camera isn't too bad.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Travar1410:
hehe yeah.. the sound is killing me dude.. but i hear what your saying. i guess its not that bad, but the shutter sound click thingy is TERRIBLE. lol thanks for that info btw
[Thunderbolt Android Development] xdpurp:
I'll give that a shot, thanks. Unfortunately where I'm at right now I can't get a GPS lock regardless of ROM so I have to wait until I'm on the move again. T_T
[Thunderbolt Android Development] bmt626:
Aosp camera not to bad but if Google would add touch to focus it would be amazing
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mrchambo:
Sure has been quiet here lately...guess we're waiting for HTC/VZW to release some code re the RIL?

Okay, den. I'm good with it for now...

[Thunderbolt Android Development] smashingtool:
Ah, i have been waiting for a stable release to try cyanogen for the first time. Should i keep waiting? Or just go for it?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] JohnDaddyo:
Everyone here has their ThunderBolt rooted and are waiting for a final CM7 release?

May I ask what process you used to root?

Thanks
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jaysckap:
Use the manual method its not that hard just follow the directions
[Thunderbolt Android Development] yumms:
I used this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1005292

Its an easy 3 click root method.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] gdanko:
Bah you can keep Sense and their stupid giant clock widget.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mrchambo:
+1 gdanko!

jc
[Thunderbolt Android Development] itzdarc:
Or you can try this test which works fabulously (minus stable 4G) and use the Beautiful Widget's stupid giant clock widget! :PPP
[Thunderbolt Android Development] driphter:
go for it! ;)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] raziel36:
Seriously, since the second test(test1.zip), this has been my daily driver. Go for it!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] xndzizz:
agreed. a little gimmicky getting 4g signal and you lose it on reboot and have to do it over but aside from that i love it. honestly only thing that makes me sometimes want to flash back to stock is to the use the leaked skype with video. needs some htc libraries to run... hopefully someone could get it working with cm7
[Thunderbolt Android Development] lpd0084:
I've been running this daily since rc0... I don't live in a 4g area though

Pity the noob as u were pitied in ur noobishness
[Thunderbolt Android Development] JohnDaddyo:
Thank you for your help! I keep running into the same issue using the Rooter method. It seems to go through the process just fine and then it comes to a screen that says to choose the bootloader option and press POWER. Let the ROM flash...

ASS-uming the Rooter is supposed to boot my phone to this area so I can begin the next process. It does not.

I do have ADW Launcher installed but I run this process using HTC Sense.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] JFMFT:
Tethering doesn't work with my Xoom. Is there a fix (a .zip file or other method) for this issue? I get stuck at "Obtaining IP address..."

The tetherfix.zip I used on Dad BAMF doesn't work for CM7.

This ROM is great. Nice work all who put their time into this project.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] THATTON:
You can boot into the bootloader by holding the volume down key and the power key at the same time from the phone being being powered off. Good luck. You might be better off rooting the long way. It really isn't difficult. Let us know how it goes.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] JohnDaddyo:
So even if Easy Root does not take my phone to the Bootloader Screen, I can do it myself?

I'm not sure I remembered seeing the signature by "myboo" earlier ;(
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jaysckap:
Do it the manual way its much safer
[Thunderbolt Android Development] JohnDaddyo:
Forgive me for asking but, can you tell me where to find the walk thru for the manual method please?

Thank you
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jaysckap:
I mobile now but its a sticky and jcase made the thread.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] psufan5:
Is there a major problem or something? Been a while since there was an update build :) Hopefully things are progressing!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] yumms:
There is only one guy working on this build and he has six kids....that might have something to do with lack of updates :)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] rycheme:
I saw on Twitter that punkkaos (who is an amazing dev) may be working on CM for TB too.

[Thunderbolt Android Development] dakoop:
Six kids!? Does he work on this while humping or what?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] JohnDaddyo:
Sorry about that. Be careful.

I'll search...Thank you for your help.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] djkeller3:
Agreed. Take the time to study what you are doing. I got on here and tried to find someone I could pay to root my TB. Gave up and did it myself. Took me 5 hours or so and got lots of help on XDA. If I can do it, most anyone can. The key is to read through the instructions using ADB several times until you feel comfortable with it, then make sure you have lots of time so as to not feel pressured by time constraints. There are lots of people here who will jump in and help you out if you get stuck or if something seems unclear.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] djkeller3:
By the way, I've looked in this thread for someone else experiencing this and haven't found anyone... when I receive a call, my TB rings just one time and then vibrates until the call is either answered or goes to voice mail. Not sure what to do since I've fixed permissions both in ROM Manager and in ClockworkMod Recovery many times and still have the problem. I guess no one else is experiencing this?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jaysckap:
Well said, its nice to see someone that isn't in a hurry and wants to learn, too many people could care less and then ***** about one click not working or it messing up their phones.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] J2theMatt:
If I remember correctly there is a setting under sound for quiet pickup, uncheck it.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] midnight assassin:
+1 he did some amazing things with the Eris. That's awesome if he's working on the TB.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] djkeller3:
Yes, and that really is the truth of it. If something goes wrong during a 1-click root, there's almost no way to troubleshoot it. You just get what you get, for the most part. I rooted my OG Droid the long way (it wasn't ADB, but it was still long), but did use Z-root and Unrevoked to root DroidX and Incredible which are 1-click root processes, but they were tried and true. The 1-click methods we have right now are not nearly so refined, and I would encourage anyone wanting to root their TB to steer clear of them.

Especially if you're considering installing a test-ROM like CM7. The root process needs to be done right if you are to have any success and confidence running a ROM like this, though outstanding, it has a greater proportion of bugs. And if your TB is not rooted properly, you're sure to have major problems.

Being rooted is a wonderful thing. Those desiring to root and run CM7 need to take the time necessary to learn what they are doing. They will appreciate what they have even more, and they will be much more knowledgeable about what we discuss here in this thread, thus giving better input to improving the ROM that most of us here are endeared to.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] PorscheGuy:
I had that issue as soon as I tried a different kernel. Once I went back to the stock kernel again the issue went away.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] djkeller3:
I've looked in the phone settings as well as the sound menu in CyanogenMod Settings and can't find it. :confused:
[Thunderbolt Android Development] djkeller3:
I'm using Imoseyon's 1.4Ghz kernel. Absolutely love it! I can't remember if the single-ring problem was there with the stock kernel or not.

While it is a bug I'd like to fix, it definitely isn't causing a train wreck. This kernel is working out well for me otherwise. So fast and stable, it makes CM7 feel so incredibly light and nimble. Much faster than stock kernel, so if I have to give that up, I'll keep the one-ring bug. :eek:
[Thunderbolt Android Development] J2theMatt:
Let me restore my CM7 nandroid
[Thunderbolt Android Development] midnight assassin:
My 3g stopped working as soon as I loaded this rom. Is this a known issue. Do I just need to change my radio? Sorry if this is known and I missed it in my search.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] chadstone30:
How is it possible that one single dev is working on TB CM7? I thought this phone would have tons of dev support. It's unbelievable to me that no one else is able to help Slayher out on this. Am I wrong? Aren't other devices supported by a whole gang of people?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Derrtydozen:
Its recommended to use the older radio....stated in the OP
[Thunderbolt Android Development] midnight assassin:
Thanks for the response. Just got it working. Search helped. Switched to cdma auto prl in phone info and rebooted. Using 3g right now. Yee haaa.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jaysckap:
Didnt you notice all the other rom's for our device. The tbolt IS supported by a whole gang of people
[Thunderbolt Android Development] THATTON:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=996616
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dlongb13:
Slayher has a couple of people that have helped out I believe. And as of now he is the only one who has a working RIL, the most important part of the phone. And until it is done with no issues and he releases it then there wont be to many other people working on it. Nobody other devs want to spend so much time on the RIL when there is a working one out there and then they can use that once it is released. So once the RIL is done and the Mecha build is a part of the Cyanogen mod tree the RIL source will be public and other devs can jump in. This RIL can then be used to help get other roms, such as AOSP or MIUI headed in the right direction as well. Someone please correct me if I am wrong I am just trying to spread my little knowledge.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] THATTON:
Sounds pretty close to me but we really never know if he has anyone else helping him with the RIL. Birdman has been talking about TB stuff on Twitter with Slayher...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] swimminsurfer256:
That's a very solid team in itself. I'd feel confident about hopefully seeing something soon..

Or maybe that's just the intense flash withdrawals I'm currently going through ;)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] RjsShadows:
Man I wish more people would work on the RIL :/
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dlongb13:
Also note that Mirdman, Drod and others are at Google IO so they won't be doing much for the next week or so. Unless they get drunk and have dev parties at the hotel.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dlongb13:
Quit begging. You sound pathetic.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] miketoasty:
We have plenty and its coming along amazingly. Who would of that 2 months after its release we would have a completely stable cm7 build!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] psychomaniac189:
With this method you will NOT get support in the irc room if your phone does not work properly after this method. This method is NOT supported!

yeah, but those are sense roms. we want roms that are 100% sense-less
[Thunderbolt Android Development] joshnichols189:
That's not begging, and just makes you look like a piece of ****.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Nikolai2.1:
Guys come on
[Thunderbolt Android Development] joshnichols189:
You're right, I apologize but comments like the one I quoted are absolutely unnecessary. Mine may have been too, but the person he was talking down to wasn't even begging.

Back on topic..... This runs great for a "pre alpha" :)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] nkd:
WOW this thread is going down the drain. The guy is wishing for something, stop picking on him. He never called out anyone. I guess you never wished for anything, seriously. Can some of you just get along or respect a guy who might not be a dev or a guy simply crazy about cm7 and loves it so much that he wants it.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] :
Where is the love?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] miketoasty:
Never felt so much hatred in the development section of a phone really people, really.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] miketoasty:
Well sorry for double posting but I was just wondering has anyone heard anything from slayher lately? I follow him on facebook and twitter and read all that I can only here and have heard little more about the ril which is a little dissapointing. Is it still being actively worked on or is slayher taking a break? I'm not asking for any eta just want to know where we stand on getting things merged.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ProTekk:
Reasons A - Z why most of us developers don't bother to even post in our own threads. Stupid fighting and nitpicking that has nothing to do with the work released. Good job guys, keep it up! Make us proud!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] PerCompLLC:
And they have another on the way...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] PerCompLLC:
If you're using the Imoseyon kernel, then the problem is probably not there... I'm using the same kernel and don't experience the ring problem you described. It's gotta be a setting somewhere...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] madzozs:
Dear God. Instead of beer money, make donations for a Vasectomy.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] miketoasty:
I just took a logcat of what happens when I enable lte and go from full signal to nothing. Would it be of some use to post it here. Dunno if it would matter but I have it in the ready.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ProTekk:
I'd personally say put it on pastebin or something similar and then post the link to it here. Someone viewing this thread may be able to help and it'd be more useful for you to post a link to it versus waiting for someone to PM you or ask here about it and then it would get lost in a sea of posts.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] scottricketts:
He also had HVAC problems and had to get his AC replaced. Between his regular job, a brace of kids, a wife, and normal daily crap, I'm happy with what we've gotten from him so far. When they're a new build, we'll get it. In the meantime, I'm back to BAMF until the MMS and 4G issues get sorted out. We've only got three guys even looking at the T-Bolt right now, so things will just take time.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] gdanko:
Ahahahaha "humping". We would use that word in elementary school.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] gdanko:
What MMS problem? It works for me.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] miketoasty:
I'm not trying to sound ungrateful and hope that's not how it came out. I just wanted to make sure nothing happened to him and that all is good.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] smashingtool:
I just loaded CM7 last night, after seeing everyone insist it is working fine and is their daily driver(I've been assuming this just means it is stable enough to get normal use ouf of). I'm quite impressed with Gingerbread, and everything is great except my battery life is even weaker than with BAMF.(Even with Imoseyon's battsaver kernel) Oh well, I think i just need a 2750 battery.

Where would i donate if i want to help with the development of this for the TB? Or would i be best served just donating to CM in general?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] qman66:
how is ur battery life?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] miketoasty:
Alright well Im attaching the log file of what happens when I enable LTE.

This is from CDMA/Evdo Auto to CDMA/LTE Auto

Also, I have full 3g coverage, green, when making the switch and when it switches over I lose signal altogether. No data, do bars at all.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] loggainsd:
another update

So i decided to try test4(test3) again and i got it almost 100% working. Here was my process.

Wipe Cache/Dalvik Cache/Data/Batt Stats 3x

Install cm7 zip

Full wipe 1x again

Install gapps

Full wipe 1x again

Boot into cm7

skip google signin

Factory Reset from Settings

Reboot and sign into gmail

At that stage I was still having issues--I still didnt have the pulldown power widget and settings wouldnt stick. I then fixed permissions in RM and rebooted. I checked better keyboard in settings and had to reboot to get it to stick. Then i selected better keyboard from the input menu and had to reboot it to get it to stick as well. Then after that reboot i noticed my power widgets came back and settings would stick. GPS worked for a little while but now it doesn't. Granted I am using the most recent radio, not the one that we were told to use in the OP. I will try that to see if it will fix GPS.

The only major issue I am having now is that my phone just powers off sometime between 11pm and 7am central. My phone is on when I go to bed but when I wake up the phone is powered off. This wouldnt be a major concern, except I use my tbolt for an alarm clock.

Any ideas what is causing the power down?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] qman66:
i think its the new radio. i was getting some crazy sudden reboots on it and then i flashed the old radio and never again.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] qman66:
same problem with me
