So I'm reading that some people have GPS working with this release... Can anyone who believes this to be true... Switch your GPS to stand-alone only, then run GPS test app for one minute and tell me how many says you are locked to and what the accuracy is in feet... Just trying to figure out if a different radio will make it work or not...

The airplane toggle still doesn't fix my data. But every once in a while data works almost right away on a reboot. Then it does its 1x 3g 4g cycle over the next few minutes. I'm thinking my way of fixing will be restarting a few times til it works.

I'm not at home and have no idea if it's even possible to do through the phone.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jawonder:
That radio did work for me at all . Don't think this has anything to do with it but before installing Cyanogen i went into advanced mennu and wiped battery stats and Dalvik cache , think that would have anything to do with the no data ? .
[Thunderbolt Android Development] JustinD2473:
I guess I spoke too soon....Rebooted and it's gone again. Can't get data back right now. I don't get it.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] cmo220:
After I put on a good working radio I had to restore to a ROM that let me choose radio settings. I put it on cdma/lte. Then wiped and reinstalled cm7. After that data worked. It only works sometimes after reboot tho for me. Try rebooting a few times.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] MechaMorph:
I can confirm this. My data was fine all afternoon with 4G. no phone calls during that time. Wife just called me and poof data now gone. Not getting it back so far either.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] cmo220:
I just tested that. Had my friend sitting next to me at the bar call. I didn't lose data.

Edit: on my last boot maps wouldn't get closer than 3000 meters and it said navigation wasn't available in location. On this boot its 30 meters and navigation works.

Does anyone know how I can get back to the Market Install Recovery or whatever the option was when CM first booted up? I cancelled out of that to set up Wifi for app recovery, but the downloads seem to be frozen. I can get them to manually start by cancelling and restarting again, but I don't feel like doing this for all the apps.

Save the log on the sdcard. Upload the txt file to your dropbox. Provide the link to the file on dropbox to who ever needs it via PM.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] kovdev:
It appears that the audio for a phone call is being pulled from the microphone on the rear of the device, at least that's how its working here for me. That would explain why people appear to be drowned out by the ambient noise. I tested in a rural neighborhood with low background noise and when I was speaking on the device (as you would normally), the audio was muddled and had a bathtub like quality to it. If I flipped the device and turned it around, all outbound audio was cleared up instantly.

GPS still needs some work. My location is showing over 5k meters away from where I am. I tested in an open space with no overhead objects to cause interference as well as indoors. No amount of toggling would grab me a more accurate read.

As for data, I don't live in a 4G coverage area. However, 3G is working just fine. I can switch between data/wifi without any loss and data resumes after phone calls.

For a pre-alpha, this is more than impressive. I had a hunch that Sense was holding the hardware back and this just proves it. I look forward for the progression to a stable, reliable build.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] cmo220:
I'm don't log too often. What do I do to save them to my sd. Does it continue logging on reboots? I definitely wanna do all I can to help this out. And I guess I should get a dropbox.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] kpa2727:
look up fancy widget pro or beautiful widgets.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] buttstink:
hey thanks i did check out fancy widget and i have already purchased beautiful widgets though i don't even use it anymore. i should have clarified that i use simi clock widget and before on froyo, for one of the launcher actions i used to have it go to the weather app. now on GB if i set the launcher to open beautiful widgets app i get like the setup screen instead of the the weather app opening (below). maybe what i'm asking is impossible/unreasonable, but i thought i'd ask.

After a clean install last night, CM7 is finally running well! I haven't had to toggle modes once yet. I'm on a NJ Transit train to NYC and it's smoothly switching between 3G and 4G. I'll see layer how it does with WiFi.

By the way, my eye-roll last night wasn't at the ROM, but rather at myself for my own impatience. I just wanted this to work! It seems as if a clean re-install with stock kernel has worked magic.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jaben2:
Good to hear. Hopes it works for you. Been working well for me other than having to reboot to have some settings stick.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] miketoasty:
How are people getting 4g to work properly that is the only thing keeping me from this rom.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] PWEB18:
I feel like its luck.. mine has worked since test4 but it seems to be different for everyone
[Thunderbolt Android Development] a32guy:
Not sure if its a CM7 issue or new radio issue, but is anyone else missing calls? My phone simply won't ring 30 - 40% of the time and I will get a google voice notification of a missed call... yet it never rang and no missed call entry in the call log. Callers tell me it would ring 7 or 8 times, then my google VM would pick up-- not just go straight to voicemail upon dialing.

Anyone?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] thebaltes:
Anyone notice an issue with airplane mode not fully killing the radio?

Ill be in airplane mode inside the hospital where I'm working, where there is no signal. I get outside and suddenly my phone starts buzzing in my pocket as I receive text messages.

Phone says I'm still in airplane mode too, but still it's receiving texts

for the last two hours I was in airplane mode the battery stats are reporting that the phone has spent 53% without a signal.

The drain on my battery is incredible lol
[Thunderbolt Android Development] intangibleDroid:
^

I've noticed something similar. When I enable airplane mode, it usually just shows up as no service, not the airplane icon.

How have you been enabling airplane mode? I'm wondering if it has something to do with which method has been used (Power Button Menu, Settings or Notification Widget Bar).
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Derrtydozen:
you might have to tick airplane mode in your settings, the notification bar widgets don't always work :(
[Thunderbolt Android Development] deltwalrus:
.............SUCCESS!!! From DasBAMF 1.6.3 to CM7.1 alpha in 15 minutes. Here's howIdunit:

First, on BAMF, I verified that Wi-Fi and 4G worked here in the office (they did).

Then I went and got a good, solid GPS signal by the window. 9 fixes on 9 satellites.

Booted into Recovery (not through ROM Manager).

Wiped data/cache.

Wiped data/cache (again).

Wiped data/cache (again again).

Flashed latest CM7 zip.

Flashed 2.3.4 G-Apps zip.

Flashed latest dreamKernel (1.1.7, I think).

Rebooted and crossed fingers.

Results

3G: works

4G: .....WORKS!

GPS: ...WORKS! 9 fixes on 9 sats!

Wi-Fi: seems to work, although our Wi-Fi at work blows goats

FYI, my radio is unchanged from before, I am running 1.16.00.0402w_1.

Kernel is 2.6.35.13-nerozehl-dream-1.1.7-beta_CM7-dirty

Hopefully this helps someone. I pulled bits and pieces of the above from this massive thread, so thank you all for hanging in there and helping each other -- and me! -- out. I have no idea if wiping so many times (...eww) was actually helpful, but this is the first time I've had success with this ROM on this device. I was a Nook Color owner for about a week, and I fell in love with CM7 then, so I'm thrilled beyond words to have it on my phone!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] major_works:
That's just about what worked for me last night, except I didn't flash the dream kernel this time. Kudos to Jaben2 for his suggestion of wiping data/cache 3X, which was the only thing I did differently from the other times when I couldn't get data working no way, no how. I am running the stock radios myself. At the moment, I can't get a GPS fix but I am on the interior of the fourth floor in a six-floor building.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] emarusamun:
I only ever wipe data/cache once and I've never had an issue with any roms.

Every phone acts different I guess.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] PerCompLLC:
I have experienced this problem as well. But I'm not sure if it is a ROM issue or a Verizon issue. Fortunately it doesn't happen very often for me (at least not that I'm aware of).
[Thunderbolt Android Development] tu3218:
Does anyone else's wifi turn on automatically when using maps? I'm trying to see if I can get a gps lock but wifi always turns on and I think that leads to a better lock. I'm using dream kernel but this also occurred on the stock kernel. Anyone?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] smashingtool:
Does anyone else have no gps signal at all? Is there a way of fixing it? I see some people have it working fine
[Thunderbolt Android Development] PerCompLLC:
Have you tried the accepted fix (relatively) of reloading a Sense based ROM, getting a GPS lock via Maps and/or GPS Status, and then reloading your CM7 backup from CW? Worked for me and many others...

Edit: No need to wipe data or anything for this method.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] smashingtool:
Oh, yeah, crap. I remember reading that now. Thanks. I've been working on too many android phones, getting my wires crossed
[Thunderbolt Android Development] PerCompLLC:
No worries... We've all been there.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] thebaltes:
My GPS wont turn on at all...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] smashingtool:
Yeah, several friends of mine have been on android for a while now, but within 2 weeks of getting my Tb, i became the groups guru.

Anyway, I tried bamf 1.6, and was unable to get a gps lock with it. Tonight ill download a newer sense rom and try again I guess.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] 2k10MBC300SPT:
No Sene UI:( Doesn't make sense w/an HTC Device:( anyway to get it back?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] BennyJr:
i saw someone say they downloaded a blue theme from the market...anyone know if this is true?

edit: nvm
[Thunderbolt Android Development] PerCompLLC:
It may take awhile to get a lock... I'm using BAMF as well as my Sense "go to". Took about 15 minutes. But after I got the lock, rebooted into CW, and restored CM7, GPS worked like a champ.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Veridor:
Not on an AOSP ROM like CM7, as HTC Sense isn't open source. To get it back, you'll need to either restore the nandroid backup you hopefully made, or wipe and flasha Sense ROM.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Turb0wned:
OK this is probably a very stupid question... Im sorry in advance. Do I flash test 7 then 2.3.4? Or is 2.3.4 alone fine?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mmtoman:
Ill post two screens but can someone give me a link to the correct radio. I don't know which one is correct because in the radio thread, it is tough for me to tell which is which.

Sorry and thanks
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Marhey:
Gapps 2.3.4. needs to be flashed in addition to CM7. Flash CM7 then Gapps. :)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Marhey:
The radio you have is fine. Its the original. Or you can flash the 402 radio which was a Froyo update. But either one is fine. Here is the link to the 402 http://www.multiupload.com/2VDSQ6SBAZ
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Turb0wned:
lol ok so thats just the link to the gapps lol now I feel stupid. No more posting for the next hour for me.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Marhey:
All good bro, gotta learn somewhere. :)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Marhey:
Settings seems to not stick sometimes. I found that running Fix Permissions in Rom Manager will make the settings stick.

Happened to me last night. I only use like 100 minutes/month so rarely do I even get calls (I hate talking on the phone, I should just get a pager, lol).
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dc8783:
Just a question when will the mounting issue be fixed that's my only concern other than that it is a great Rom
[Thunderbolt Android Development] gdanko:
Couple of issues for me.

1) Maps can pull up my location just fine. But News and Weather cannot get my location for the weather info.

2) Cannot connect to ANY access point via wifi. http://pastebin.gdanko.net/440

Will the "wifi fix" address the problem in 2?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] buttstink:
thank you for this!! i followed your directions and now have wifi and gps working!! i was about to jump ship back to bamf because this was annoying for me. the only thing not working for me now is 4G. i'm using the 1.1600.0223r radio...maybe i'll try yours except that one wasn't working 4G either. are you choosing CDMA auto(PRL)? i don't have the option of CDMA+LTE like i did on bamf.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] gotcha13:
what radio are you on? someone else complained about this.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Marhey:
I also experienced this. I am on 402w_1 radio.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Mr Spiff:
yes!, its since i flashed the most recent update, that ive had this problem.

also, since i downloaded this update, ive had randomly dropped calls, and wifi problems... which is something i did not have on previous versions of cm7.

obviously still having gps issues, however this update did fix my call volume complaint...

any ideas, on ways to address these problems?

-Spiff
[Thunderbolt Android Development] gotcha13:
not exactly sure but i think slayher built this rom based on the .0223r radio.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mattgyver83:
I also have experienced this issue myself but until now was not sure if it was a carrier or CM related issue, This has plagued me for the past 2 test versions, I have yet to flash latest from 5-28.

Radio version: 1.1600.0223r
[Thunderbolt Android Development] bilbobrian:
What kernel are you all using when you're missing calls? I just started using dream kernel and have been having this issue also. Didn't seem to have it with imo's kernel.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ikithme:
There was a guide to fix GPS on here and now I can't seem to sift through all of these posts and find it. Anyone mind quoting it for me?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] noisufnoc:
I actually just downloaded GPS Status from the market and used it to clear the GPS data. Works like a champ.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jakejonez:
1. Backup CM7

2. Flash a Sense ROM (or restore a Sense ROM)

3. Download GPS Status

4. Menu-->Tools-->Manage a-GPS State-->Reset

5. Menu-->Tools-->Manage a-GPS State-->Download

6. Wait for a solid, consistent lock (I think GPS may time out if the screen turns off, so make sure it stays on while you're waiting for a lock)

7. Restore CM7
[Thunderbolt Android Development] noisufnoc:
I was able to successfully get a GPS lock w/o the need to flash/restore a Sense ROM.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jakejonez:
I've been using every version of the pre-alpha since it was released, and I've only had to do this once or twice. On those occasions, I tried getting a lock by resetting the a-GPS state and then downloading assistance data to no avail. Judging by this thread, I'm not the only one who has experienced this, so I just wanted to provide ikithme the steps for the long procedure :)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] tanium:
Well I'm going to give it a shot.

Running Bamf remix gb now.

I want to see what all the buzz is about.

Been reading for days and right when I'm thinking do it I see a mess of don't work posts.

But I'm ready to try it.

I'm cool with some issues.

I just hope 4g works.

Ok from a post a few back 402 radio link the guy put up.

Hboot this file PG05IMG.zip, should now be froyo radio.

Next install Rom manager and flash update-cm-7.1.0-RC0.2-Thunderbolt-KANG-signed.zip

Next flash gapps-gb-20110307-signed.zip.

Reboot and enjoy correct.

Question is.

This look correct to you guys, the gapps files was kind of like ok this one lol.

Also do I flash the gapps before I reboot from flashing the cm7 file.

Thanks for any info.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] justreboot:
Never had an issue with GPS or WIFI. Actually, the only issue I have is with BT not getting audio to my headset :( Kinda sucks as I can no longer answer calls in the car. (Which can be a good thing)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] tommyboy2034:
1.) I think most if not everyone is experiencing this, and I've yet to see a work around... other than manually setting your location in those apps..which is what i'm doing.

2.) Wifi works great for me, so I can't address this one.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] tommyboy2034:
Flash radio

Flash CM7

Flash gapps

Always reboot in between, wiping data/cache/dalvik every time.

[Thunderbolt Android Development] buttstink:

[Thunderbolt Android Development] miketoasty:

[Thunderbolt Android Development] jgrimberg1979:
I have been switching back and forth from gungeritis IX and the latest and cm7. Anyways I had data/4G issues in the earlier releases of gingerbread and I have always had data 4g issues with cm7 but I have noticed that the data issues with gingerbread is almost non existant which is sweet. My question is given that cm7 is having issues with data on all radios and it doesn't work with the gingerbread radio, is it possible that the data fix would be to make cm compatiple with the lastest gb radio? It might be worth looking in to, what do you guys think?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] tommyboy2034:
Battery isn't good with the latest release, the cell standby is draining big time
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jaben2:
Ok thanks, was really liking this rom, however not sure if I want to sacrifice battery this much. I am used to being able to go just about 2 days without charging.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ERIFNOMI:
I'm not sure how much work that would be but it would require making the RIL compatible with those radios. That's what is holding all AOSP ROMs back. Maybe it's easier to finish the RIL based on the Froyo radios then work on changing to the GB radios. Maybe not. But these GB radios we have are alpha versions and it's probably smartest to just let them work on froyo radios until either they're perfected or official GB radios are released.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Nikolai2.1:

Slayhers Stock kernel, the version im running is 2.6.32.21-g1d91b49 slayher@homebrewed #16

I tend to shy away from custom kernels, im my experience they tend to cause more trouble than they are worth, obviously not always the case.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] necosino:
I have wifi just about everywhere I go, so I turned my network onto CDMA only and just stay connected to wifi all day. My battery went 9:45 with only 35% battery usage (light-moderate use). So it may be the dual-antenna that is killing our batteries since CDMA-only doesn't use the 3G/LTE radio.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] BennyJr:
My batt life was great...started at 67 percent after i flashed at 10ish and lasted the whole day on wifi
[Thunderbolt Android Development] tanium:
Made it.

have not checked out much yet.

I downloaded the 402 radio as per the link a few pages back.

After boot I had no connection.

Had to go into network setting and just pick an option to get the phone to get 3g.

my phone always had 4g before so.

what's up, how do I get 4g turned on.

what setting should it be on for normal city use.

Thank you.

[Thunderbolt Android Development] beavis9k:
Here is a fix for the wifi issues (and possibly the issues with settings not sticking). I've only been testing it for the last few hours, but I thought I'd put it up here for others to try and report back. So far I've had no issues associating with APs, roaming between them, switching back to cell data when I'm out of range, and re-associating when I'm back in range.

All my setting changes seem to stick, even through reboots with wifi enabled.

Although this is NOT a kernel fix, it is in boot.img. Flashing it will replace your kernel with the 7.1.0-RC0.2 kernel from 5/28.

THIS IS NOT A ZIP YOU CAN FLASH FROM RECOVERY! You need to have fastboot and know how to use it to flash this.

1. Make a backup in recovery! If you bork this up, you can use advanced recovery to only flash the boot.img from your backup.

2. Download the attachment and unzip it. It should be named wififix-boot.img. MD5 of the img file is 63c735d68a99597ff0e23ce44d2eb247.

3. Reboot your phone into fastboot. Use fastboot to flash. Then reboot:

fastboot flash boot wififix-boot.img
fastboot reboot

Imoseyon, maybe you can help me put a CW flashable zip together to make the process easier.

Slayher, PM me back and I can give you a patch for the code or you can tell me what you'd like me to do with it.

EDIT:

Here is a recovery flashable zip from drod. Thanks drod! http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=14337232&postcount=3905

One more thing - you don't need imo's wifi fix from earlier in the thread with this fix. It's probably best to NOT have it installed.
