This is the first time I've run CM on an Android. It is amazing.

I have two questions:

-When charging, the LED is green. Usually, a green LED indicates that the phone is fully charged. Is this normal for CM?

-Are the signal bars "conservative"? That is, are they showing weak signal when the signal is actually good? I can't seem to get over two bars in 3G or 4G.

The ROM is so smooth and snappy and the interface is awesome. I don't mind the data toggling issues while everything else is so perfect.

Thanks for the great work!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] yohanseki:
Mine takes about 8 seconds indoor.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] boingboingbilly:
Thank you, just tried it. Had strong 3G after reboot, changed to CMDA+LTE/Evdo and it immediately killed signal, returned to 2 gray bars and that is all I get. No data at all, no change. Let it sit for 5 minutes - nothing.

Tried fixing permissions, no change.

Sucks, really want CM7 but I would rather have 4G.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] superskaterxes:
still no gps for me (locked instantly on RC0.6)

and after watching a youtube video in landscape, it wouldent go back to portrait until i rebooted.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] yohanseki:
From what I've read green light comes on at 90%. I'm chagrinning mine right now and it's orange at 66%. I believe the bars is a graphics issue your signal strength should be about the same as on other Roms.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] miketoasty:
GPS FIX

Same as its always been people.

Backup then flash any sense based ROM.

Activate and get a good GPS lock.

Reboot into recovery while still having a GPS lock.

Restore CM7.

Worked for me so far on every RC (Switch back and forth between sense and CM alot) and also works for OMFGB.

For me on CM7 GPS takes only a couple seconds maybe 15 to lock.

Edit: Just replicated this to make sure it works with the latest realease (RC1.1) and it does. Booted CM7 went to GPS Status, absolutely NO GPS whatsoever not even the icon in the status bar. Followed the steps I posted (Used BAMF 2.1 (Not that it matters)) and went back to GPS Status. Had a lock in 5 seconds and google maps found my exact location instantly.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] miketoasty:
I saw on twitter slayher (The creator of this ROM) was able to get 20 hours out of a standard battery on WiFi so you should expect at least the same as sense if not a couple hours more.

I use stock kernel and the 2.5 radio and keep 4G lock through reboot and have great battery life! (~15 hours standard battery, 3G)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Crimton:
Looking forward to trying this :-) lookin good
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jblist90:
Thanks for the info. Plan on making the move to CM7 tonite or tomorrow nite
[Thunderbolt Android Development] yohanseki:
Has anyone notice a much slower 4g. I usually get 12k - 19k kbps but now I'm getting 3k - 6k kbps.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] miketoasty:
What are you using to measure?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] yohanseki:
I guess a reboot fixed the download speeds.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] joshnichols189:
I hope you're getting more than 6kbps...... or even 19kbps
[Thunderbolt Android Development] yohanseki:
Speed test.net. Is there a better one to use?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] miketoasty:
Speedtest doesn't work on CM7 (At least not that I have noticed) in your browser go to "speakeasy.net/speedtest" (Without the quotes of course) and pick the best server then see what your speeds really are.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] caspersfi:
Hey guys, I'm having trouble downloading this ROM. I click on the link and it will download for a second and say download successful or unsuccessful. Sorry if this is a dumb question but I've never had this issue before. Any suggestions? Thanks
[Thunderbolt Android Development] yohanseki:
Sorry should of wrote 19Mbps instead of 19k kbps
[Thunderbolt Android Development] yohanseki:
Try a different web browser I had issues with dolphin
[Thunderbolt Android Development] yohanseki:
Thanks. Wow 32.33 Mbps
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Mustang302LX:
Are you guys seeing much difference on this on MR2+ over the FroYo radios?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dajogejr:
Tried this on MR2 this morning (nice not to have to flash radios between ROMs) and no AOSP based ROM to date I've tried can connect to and stay reliably connected to LTE, Metro Detroit.

Tried this and OMG.

I can fiddle and faddle with the network settings...but a reboot and you can kiss that good bye.

What are you guys using to get and keep a reliable LTE connection?

(3G is solid, but I bought a sports car...not a minivan. :) )
[Thunderbolt Android Development] joshnichols189:
Netflix deactivated popup again :(
[Thunderbolt Android Development] psufan5:
The main problem is the Auto CDMA/LTe setting disables 3G. It never tries to even use 3G so if you toggle this to get 4G working, better hope signal never goes away or you wont have data at all until you flip the toggle again.

Thats the main issue keeping me from using any AOSP roms.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] yohanseki:
Face toward the east.

Sorry nothing special here just seems to connect 4g.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] BennyJr:
Flashed and im on mr2 and yay for data and signal! Now im in love and must donate to slayher
[Thunderbolt Android Development] joshnichols189:
Fixed my netflix. Clear app cache and data, then uninstall and reinstall.. should work fine
[Thunderbolt Android Development] MrKleen1:
I just noticed the update! I am very pleased to see I can use MR2 because now I don't have to keep flashing back and forth between radios.

I am also VERY happy to see that the work is progressing!

Love it! Love it! I'm going to load it up again right away to check it out!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] miketoasty:
It took mine about 2 minutes to grab 4G after a reboot. If you have never used the 2/2.5 radio before then you should note that it does take a little longer to grab 4G over the MR1. That being said after a reboot you should see near instant 3G then after a minute or two it should switch itself to 4G. If you are not seeing 3G after a reboot then this won't work and to tell you the truth I don't know why.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jmotyka:
Look at my SIG for speed result, and thats with one bar of 4g.

Via Chicago I'm getting 26.53Mbps down/2.81Mbps up. Not too shabby.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] tekhna:
Quick, stupid question -why am I only getting the option to log in to exchange, not my Gmail account? I can't sync my account,it seems.

ROM manager is also force closing, saying it needs the latest version.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] joshnichols189:
What radio? On vacation but excited to see these speeds when I get back to chitown :)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mojonation1487:
Nice! glad to see it was worked out
[Thunderbolt Android Development] doug piston:
In 4g area and no data for me. :( pouty face
[Thunderbolt Android Development] richB7:
I'm using the leaked radio and it's working okay. You have to switch network mode to CDMA/EvDo auto, let it connect 3G and then back to CDMA+LTE/EvDo auto.

I've lost 4G several times and got it back with this switch.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Droopie28:
^^^ Yeah I just did this when I woke up this morning, and it switched back to 4g... not hard to do, yee!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] SubliminalME:
For me says 'adb: permission denied'
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Jaxidian:
I've not seen anybody mention it (and I think I've read every post so far), so I thought it might be worth mentioning. I've used both the leaked and stock radios (no LTE here, just 3G) and both have worked for me fairly well. The leaked would sometimes drop connection but was stable enough to download several 100MB files.

However, I simply cannot connect to any Wifi network to connect and give me data. My home network connects but I get no data. I can't connect to my work's network or a couple others that I have tried. The only common denominator is that they are use WPA2.

(Not looking for support for my issue - I can survive with just 3G connection for now. However, if I can somehow support the issue, please let me know.)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] otto888:
I had that problem using a nearby hospital's WiFi . I though it was just them. Glad to know it may not have been.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] bmt626:
Any one else randomly loosing notification sound until rebooted and yes I have fixed permissions a lot

Side note the system ui apk works kind of sometimes it the nice looking icon other times its the not so nice 4g icon
[Thunderbolt Android Development] avlfive:
Same WIFI problem here.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Nikolai2.1:
Yeah don't install it, copy it to system/app
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mojonation1487:
I guess Layher is close to fixing audio and mic problems!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] kejar31:
Where did you hear this?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] rlervin:
I loose notification sound when connected to my bluetooth headset.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mojonation1487:
Twitter my man. I suggest you follow him. I get all his tbolt related cm posts right to my tbolt!! hehe
[Thunderbolt Android Development] revolt1:
OK so I got 3g and when.it switches to 4g it loses data and where do I find the market place

I'm I missing something
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mattgyver83:
did you flash gapps? I think thats why your not seeing it.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] revolt1:
from rom manager

and no

what about the 4g issue
[Thunderbolt Android Development] bmt626:
im not using bluetooth though... its one of those annoying bugs that makes you think your losing your mind :D
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mattgyver83:
Im assuming "and no" means you didn't flash gapps. You can download it from several locations and install via rom manager. In fact its even in; Rom Manager > Download Roms > Google Apps > 20110307 Universal. Once its been flashed you will return to CM and should have market.

As far as 4G I couldn't help you, my area isn't even slated for 4G this year.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] revolt1:
will do thanks

anyone else have any input on 4g
[Thunderbolt Android Development] kkozma:
You know, my phone showed a data connection on first boot up but it didn't work. So I rebooted and then it worked. I guess it doesn't hurt to roll back to MR2 and then back to 2.5. Maybe that's part of the magic dance you need to get it to work? lol
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Mustang302LX:
Did you forget to flash GAPPS?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] LittleLebowski23:
Flashed MR2.5 after not getting any data on MR2. Now having difficulty getting 4g.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jawonder:
Netflix is working fine for me search for the latest apk .
[Thunderbolt Android Development] tekhna:
I can't download GAPPS because ROM manager force closes ..
[Thunderbolt Android Development] WormDoes:
Then don't use ROM Manager :rolleyes:

Gapps
[Thunderbolt Android Development] yohanseki:
You shouldn't have to flash gapps. I didn't just download from the market.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] TheLoonyRebel:
Using the MR2 radio.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] LittleLebowski23:
Gave up after several reboots without 4g and going back to DAS BAMF GB.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] toebee76:
Thanks for the update Slayher. Loving the auto brightness and dimming. I had to tweak a few of the numbers but it was pretty damn close to what I needed. Everything is working great, but has been for me since .04. MR1 on CM7 hasn't giving me a random reboot since .02. Stuck with MR1 for now.

So what happen to all the cry babies that where whining about how cm7 development is dead because they didn't see any updates, and how they can only use one radio. Too funny. They really look like jack asses now!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] weezin9980:

I must say I am always amazed at how much powerful and responsive my T-Bolt feels when running Cyanogenmod.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] superchilpil:
Gapps includes the market... so unless u installed the market somewhere else you can't use the market without it
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ihtfp69:
You can't download the Google framework and the Market from the Market. That doesn't make any sense. o_0
[Thunderbolt Android Development] skinien:
Isn't "flaming homo" redundant? :p
[Thunderbolt Android Development] LittleLebowski23:
BAMF gave me back my 4g.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] MechaMorph:
Yep. CM7 was my daily on my old Droid for a long time. I only moved to Project Elite because that was when CM7 was in transition to CVPCS and the ROM had some pretty annoying bugs.

I try out CM7 every time Slayher drops a new version on us. Have RC1.1 loaded up now and configured. Loving it so far. The speed and responsiveness is worlds better then anything running Sense. As nice as Sense 3.0 is I miss the speed of CM7. Sense is just slow, laggy, and bloated.

Is everybody else still seeing extremely high Cell Standby with the battery status? Right now it's at 38%. :confused:
[Thunderbolt Android Development] miketoasty:
Did you wipe everything multiple times when coming over and were you using the correct radio? Seems like you are a vast minority of people having trouble.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] toebee76:
Mine is almost always in the 30-40's however the battery life is on par with any sense rom since .04 for me
[Thunderbolt Android Development] miketoasty:
For me it never seems to make a difference. On my standard battery I notice great battery life even with 50%+ of Cell Standby
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jmotyka:
LMAO Im busted!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] lmt1979:
Problems theming the MR2/2.5 Version of RC1.1

I downloaded and themed the MR1 version and the battery charging png circled around while charging(using a circular battery mod). When I flashed and themed the MR2 release the circular battery appears to be stuck on the stat_sys_battery_charge_anim5.png

instead of charging it appears to be stuck at a certain percentage, anyone think of any reason why I would have this problem with one release (the MR2 compatible) and not with the MR1 release.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dajogejr:
Been using MR2 since almost the release on GB based ROMs.

Used MR2.5 for a day...went back to 2.

I don't see near instant data on any AOSP based ROM. It takes forever...

And then it takes forever to get 3G....and fuddling to get 4.

I've even wiped it all including the SD card...

I've never had radio issues on GB or Froyo based ROMs (BAMF, Th3ory, etc.)

I do...however, appreciate the help and insight.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] boingboingbilly:
Vast minority? Maybe, but count me as another for whom CM7 on the Thunderbolt has yet to connect at 4G. Previous release, this release, all radios. Not even close to "prime time" or "daily driver" for me. I have tried toggling modes, airplane mode, fix permissions - you name it. As soon as I switch to CDMA+LTE/Evdo, dead. All of the other GB ROMs work great...but they aren't CM7.

Works fine on 3G, but whats the point of that?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] MechaMorph:
Many thanks. I won't worry about it then.

People mainly sticking with the stock kernel or moving to leanKernel or DreamKernel?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dajogejr:
Ditto here...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] breakerfall:
I don't think that word means what you think it means.

I still (since the first time I tried CM, and after each wipe/install) have to toggle off of LTE and then back on if I want to see 4G at all. After reboot, after WiFi disconnect, after Airplane mode. I AM NOT COMPLAINING; just stating my experience, and what I believe to be the experience of the vast MAJORITY of users here.

Today, I went from TeslaCoil on MR2 (wiped x3) to the new CM on MR2, and now on MR2.5. As much as I want it to, the 4G handoff just does not seem to work well on CM.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dbisch:
This is definitely my new daily driver. Getting a stable 4G signal.

One question though, I changed to the cyan theme and then went back to one of the green ones. The icons stayed the cyan color. Is there a way to put them back to the defaults???
[Thunderbolt Android Development] miketoasty:
Well guess my phone is just amazing then. On first bootup had 4G. No problems. Can switch from turning off mobile data and back and still keep it. Reboot and same thing. Stock kernel, MR2.5.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] sting5566:
So has anyone running the latest build found a solution or work around for the low in call volume? I'm running it with th Mr2.5 radio too, I only seem to have the in call volume issue on the CM builds, not sure why.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] joshnichols189:
Reboot.. kill your launcher app
[Thunderbolt Android Development] SomeGuyDude:
You can be gay and not be flaming.

Thanks so much for fixing the brightness this is amazing.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] bL33d:
This rom is pimp juice! I am only in 3g area so don't have to worry about the 4g stuff but did notice when I hit the phone it takes me to contacts and I have to select phone tab...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] skinien:
Hm... that doesn't happen to me. What if you actually hit the Phone icon in your app drawer? I'm guessing your launcher has the Contacts app linked to your Phone icon.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] concept0:
Go into the phone app. Go to preferences. There is an option at the bottom for "default tab" which you can set to phone or whatever you want. You may also be interested in the "Return to dialer after call" option at the top.

At least, all this works in RC 0.6...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] skinien:
Does anyone know of the quickest way to toggle network type? I can't seem to set up a shortcut to the action.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] seittit:
Sorry, I'm short of time and can't read previous postings. To confirm, I can use the same r2.5 radio I have for dad bamf with this new rc1.1 CM7? Thx
[Thunderbolt Android Development] skinien:
Yes. If you read the OP, it lists an RC for the old and MR2+ radios. Just make sure you download the correct one.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] MechaMorph:
I cannot get Flash to stream video. It only shows a black screen. I have tried re-installing. Any ideas? A search of the thread didn't yield anything enlightening.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] skinien:
Last I heard, you need flash 10.2 to get video playback with CM.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] m00nshake:
Please don't flame me I tried manually skimming the last ten or so pages, but do we need the froyo or gb version of the radio for this? I know CM is gb but previous releases used a froyo radio.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dbisch:
Is there a way to fix the green 4G icon on the cyan theme?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] reuuin88:
There are two different versions in the OP. One for mr2/2.5, one for mr1/froyo radios. Check the first page :P
[Thunderbolt Android Development] WormDoes:
Anyone else notice when selecting anything a thin blue line shows up inside whatever you're highlighting? For example, menu>settings>call settings (highlights in yellow with a blue line running across "call settings")

Still get a force close on LP+ after every reboot as well. Not a big deal for me, just wanted to throw it out there. Data hand offs seem fine, haven't tested LTE yet as I don't have great coverage at home. Tomorrow at work I'll be able to really test the hand offs

edit: here's a picture of blue line
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Eddog4DROID:
Has anyone found major advantages/disadvantages with either using the CM7 stock kernel or flashing a third party such as lean?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] concept0:
Try looking in the OP...

In any case, there are now two versions of CM7, one for froyo radios and one for GB radios. You can find them in the OP.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] MechaMorph:
Can anybody confirm this?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] skinien:
I'm curious to know this as well.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] bemyax:
There's a link back here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=15223366&postcount=6126

This was completely outside my experience, as well, so I had to get lucky and figure it out.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] tekhna:
Yeah, I figured it out, thanks to those who helped.

I'm back on BAMF already. Lightning quick GPS lock, and frankly the Sense 3.0 lockscreen is a really nice piece.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] miketoasty:
Not that I am arguing with your decision but my GPS is MUCH quicker on CM than on any ROM on sense.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dustinb17:
Is anyone able to use a custom app for the long press and short press of the search key? If I enable one it disables the other... Worked on previous builds but I wonder if the addition of the long press menu borked it.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] WeaselWeaz:
Damn, I was excited but this still suffers from 4G radio problems. It does not get a signal on boot when running CDMA+LTE/EVDO, you still have to switch to CDMA/EVDO and back. LTE Only seems to have a signal half the time. Plus it will randomly drop the signal and you have to switch from any LTE mode back to CDMA/EVDO, get 3G, then switch back.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] joshnichols189:
I can only select one or the other as well
[Thunderbolt Android Development] joshnichols189:
Bars on 4g do not represent signal strength.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] macdanif:
I am also still having the 3g/4g toggling issue. I tried MR2 and 2.5. Tried the dream AOSP kernel but am back to the stock kernel.

Mad Jealousy @ everyone who is working.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] skinien:
I believe signal bars on both 3G and 4G are quite representing signal strength. -65 dBm is only giving me 2 bars. I believe that's usually three or four.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] finanandroid:

I changed the default wallpaper to other cyan wallpaper, now I see pretty neat even in direct sunlight!! Everything glowing even a 30% display level. For me everything is working smoothly. Beside low signal bar seen don't affect connectivity *****
