Seriously, I haven't even come close to reading every post in this thread. Just skimming for updates and I've seen the file naming question almost every time, from someone new. The answer is kinda common sense too. If you spend more than a few seconds pondering it, without figuring it out, maybe you should be sticking with stock/sense roms lol.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] pman555:
Just an update on my findings:

Running test4

I'm still on the stock radio, as the leaked radio caused random reboots for me.

I get 4g data, but still have to reboot if i want to switch to wifi.

I also have to reboot after making changes in settings. For instance, I updated the settings to show the battery level on the lockscreen and it wouldnt show up. But after rebooting, it worked. Same thing for changing my ringtone.

Other than that, it works like a champ! Voice calls seem to be fixed and I got GPS this afternoon.

Thanks to slayher! A donation should be coming your way shortly.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jgrimberg1979:
How many people are working on the developing of cm7 for the thunderbolt? It seems that progress is a little slow. Hopefully slayer is the only person stuck with the task of developing for this phone? Is there anything we can do to help expedite this? Maybe pitch in to donate this phone to anyone dev to help slayer?

On another note there has got to be another way of going about getting the4g to work/stick.. I cannot get it to work to save my life and I have spent way too much time trying various fixes.

Slayer keep up the good work and if there is anything we can do to help let us know.

Anyone know where his donate link is?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Smok3d:
Anyone have an idea why my phone roams when I have CM7 installed?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] necosino:
Set your preferred network to Home Only, and turn off National and International roaming..

Jax, since I am already on the stock radio and I just had 4G earlier today, I shouldnt need to do the process in that thread, right?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] kejar31:
Everything is working for me in the latest release other than GPS that got broken with test four.. Really GPS is a small issue overall.... great work Slayher :-)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Breezer23:
I understand your point but I'm not just talking about this thread and this thread only. It's happening on 90% of threads now. The problem won't go away with the increasing popularity of the Android OS so we all better start working on our patience with this sort of thing now lol.

Anyway, back on topic! Looking forward to the next update! Great work Slayher! Any chance you might release your RIL Source soon so development on MIUI can begin?!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] wotdsm:
Looks like CM 7.1 RC 0 still doesn't support the mecha so far.

[Thunderbolt Android Development] Jaxidian:
Doesn't surprise me. I bet it'll be weeks/months before we're in the main trunk. But we'll be in there, don't worry... :)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Imoseyon:
Hmm so when your wifi stops working (or it stays white) you can run this command to see if your default gateway is missing:

busybox netstat -nr

The output of that command will tell you what's going on. If you want you can post it here and I will analyze it for you.

I think something's going on with CM7 alpha's capability to dhcp properly and it's not setting default gateway at times. When your default gateway is missing from the routing table you can connect to any devices on your network but not beyond your network (ie. internet), and your name resolution will be borked.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jgrimberg1979:
How the heck would it support the thunderbolt? We dont even have a beta release for 7.0
[Thunderbolt Android Development] THATTON:
Anyone figured out the trick to switching input methods? (Keyboard) I can't change to anything but the GB keyboard.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] djkeller3:
Right under his name in the OP. I asked the same question lady night, so now I don't feel so bad! ;)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] m00nshake:
This is just an educated guess but what I think slayher is trying to do with these prealpha builds is get everything working right on our Thunderbolts first, the biggest difficulty being 4g lte as slayher himself is not in an area where it is available for him to test. The best way then to get this done is with the prealpha builds and us being the testers, which is why we should keep this thread constructive.

After we get a solid build where all the issues including wifi, cell stand by battery drain, and 4g have been resolved, he'll probably take a step back from here and work on getting the ril so it doesn't break other devices. Then it'll be released into alpha and we'll soon start seeing Miui and roms based on CM7 here.

I think great headway has been made in the first part of what needs to be done, and I'm very impressed by the latest prealpha build. My assumption is that we'll get a final prealpha within a week or two... and then on to phase two... which I can't even begin to guess how long it will take as that is completely out of my league.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] crookshanks:
To change to the swype keyboard I just checked the box under settings>language and keyboard then long pressed in a text box. It gave me the option to switch in the text box.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] djkeller3:
You have to long press anywhere in a text-entry field and a box will pop up with "Input method" as a selection. As long as you have enabled all of your keyboard apps in "settings", they will show up in a list when you select Input Settings.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] emarusamun:
So I went to new Orleans earlier not expecting to get 4g and in fact did not. What I did get was a "update" to "PRL - 1". I have 3g but no calling. I'm about to load virusrom backup see if any change.

Update: back on virusrom for now, still showing prl version as 1. Was 15008 before. Both data(3g) and calls work atm. Idk.....anyone else experience this prl yet?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] djkeller3:
Excellent forecast! I think you pretty well nailed it.

I'm really glad Slayher is working on getting CM7 on TBolt. He did a super job on his interactive kernels that I used on my Dinc .

Is that what this means?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] djkeller3:
Here is a place you can check to see: http://mirror.teamdouche.net/?device=inc

I can't wait til I see Mecha on that list!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] raphytaffy:
Excuse the noob, but what's mecha?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] MoeDaddy:
I tried this, my router is 192.168.1.1...

After the above command line I get:

route: resolving gw

then busybox netstat -nr

I get first line:

destination 192.168.1.0 gateway 0.0.0.0 genmask 255.255.255.0 flags u MSS 0 window 0 irtt 0 iface etch0

second line is all 0.0.0.0 for destination ip, gateway, and genmask then the same after

I still don't get wifi unless I reboot..

EDIT

OK I'm an idiot... I forgot the in the first command line, seems to work now that I did it correctly. :) Thanks Imoseyon

I still have to run the command everytime I turn on wifi but it works and is faster than a reboot
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Smok3d:
Mecha is Thunderbolts build. Or the original name for the Thunderbolt I believe.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] yumms:
nm. delete
[Thunderbolt Android Development] raphytaffy:
Ah, gotcha. So similar to Scholes for OG Droid?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Imoseyon:
The default gateway isn't set still. Your default gateway should show in the netstat output like this:

0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0

Are you sure you're typing route add command correctly? It should be:

busybox route add default gw 192.168.1.1

From looking at your netstat output i'm guessing everyone has this exact problem with wifi: not getting default gateway set properly.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] cypherx82:
Yes, like how the OG Droid is Sholes and the EVO is Supersonic.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mmtoman:
So we definitely will have legit nightlys coming soon?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] MoeDaddy:
Sorry, yes I edited my post and said I did in fact forgot "add" in the command, but it works now. I have to do it everytime I enable wifi but I used gscript and a desktop shortcut to run it for me with a simple click.

Thanks!!!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Imoseyon:
I think i have a cm7 kernel that fixes wifi - anyone want to test please PM or tweet me.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] freehood4all:
I set static info via Settings->Wireless & Networks->Wifi settings->Menu->Advanced, after a reboot it is persistant.

Try that and let me know if it works.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Nikolai2.1:
This is from slayher's twitter:

"No. Everything for the mecha has not been merged yet. 2.3.4 first then LTE hopefully."

Don't think we'll be seeing nightlies anytime soon.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Imoseyon:
That is a workaround and you'll have to set it manually every time you connect to a different AP? DHCP is borked in CM7 kernel - i believe i have a fix but needs to be tested further.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] MoeDaddy:
great work I'd test it but leaving for a movie in about 10 mins... THANKS again for all the hard work!!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] otto888:
Atleast not officially. But the commits help with compiling "KANG" nightlys. Hopefully RIL is in there somewhere so I can continue my nightly thread...once I get power back. :(
[Thunderbolt Android Development] m00nshake:
Sent you a PM, Imoseyon...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Nikolai2.1:
doesnt seem to me that hes gonna release the ril code since its not official... but IMO i think he should so that people in 4g areas can tinker with it
[Thunderbolt Android Development] otto888:
The RIL also controls 3G so if he doesn't release it, there will be no official nightlys since the buildbots rely on the published source.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Imoseyon:
haha i thought i had it working but apparently i was hallucinating. ;) Default gateway still not being set properly. I think it may need to be fixed in the ROM...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] yumms:
Ahh...can't select a different keyboard. Did before, but can't now.Fixed permission and rebooted several times, still defaults to the standard keyboard.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jawonder:
Get keyboard manager from the market and you can use it to switch keyboards at will .
[Thunderbolt Android Development] gujupmp88:
so what kind of batter life are you guys getting on this? I'm using imoseyon's extreme kernel. been off charger for 6 hours, with the screen on for 2 hours. im down to 37 percent. does that seem low? or is that what everyone is getting. i'm overclocked to 1400mHz.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dlongb13:
Battery life isnt very good, but there is no reason to OC to 1.4 thats a little nuts. Just b/c you can doesn't mean you should. This phone is butter at 1ghz with CM, for ****s and giggles ill rock 1.2ghz to show off the phone to some friends.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] magicriggs:
I'm not even overclocked and that's thanks to aosp roms the speed is amazing. It literrly feels like what it did with other sense roms oc to 1.5 ghz.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Travar1410:
yeah dudes, this phone is the shizy.. i havent the need to OC at all lol.. my girlfriend's DX is nothing compared to this thing haha.. its an extremely good phone
[Thunderbolt Android Development] djkeller3:
Imoseyon, just sent you a PM.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] gujupmp88:
yeah, i just noticed why my phone was being very sluggish at 1ghz. i was using go launcher instead of adw. go launcher would not run smoothly on the phone unless the speed went up that high. but adw runs better at 1ghz than go did at 1.4. too bad, go had a lot of good features...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dlongb13:
If go launcher can't run on this phone then the developer needs to find a way to speed things up. I run SPB shell smooth as butter on CM7 on this phone, hell even on a sense rom.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] gujupmp88:
go is very on and off for me. sometimes it runs like a champ, and then it just slows down like none other. might be something going rogue on my phone slowing it down. but the only thing that slows down is the home screens, nothing else. might have too many widgets? but than adw would have the same problem i guess. idk what the problem would be.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] wwjdd44:
are you fixing permissions from RM or recovery?? I had same problem when going thru RM......tried from recovery and it was fixed.....I could then change my keyboard.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] yumms:
Tried both ways, same result.

dang......growing pains of the rom, I guess. right now, I can not get a theme to stay set thru reboot when changing with the theme chooser. the keyboard was a much bigger issue for me. I have become so used to using swiftkey that I kept going back to a sense rom to use it. Swiftkey learns your words so well, it gets to the point it predicts about 90% of my keystrokes/words.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] magicriggs:
Swiftkey is sweet. That's the only keyboard I use on sense roms. But the gingerbread keyboard is pretty good. I'm very happy with the keyboard and build of this for its current state.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] thejosher:
Flashed it and played around with it for a day.... went back to Sense. The GO launcher issues being the main culprit. No idea what made them not play nice together, but the combination was a nightmare. The launcher runs smooth as silk on stock but on CM was nothing but lag and bugs. Additionally, I had one market app that would not display properly no matter what I did (and it ran fine on ASOP roms on my old Inc). (compatibility mode on/off... I even tried changing some of the graphics rendering settings in the performance menu)

I'll give it another shot as soon as it hits official alpha, because what does work... works very well :) Thanks to all for their hard work on this. Anybody know who's taking over/working on the MIUI port?

[Thunderbolt Android Development] jawonder:
I guess it has something to do with the individual phone because i'm using swiftkey beta right now the dark keyboard with a grey and white theme from the theme chooser to match and i also have the paid version of swiftkey from the market an it works well too . I've rebooted and turn my phone off many times and everything still sticks .

Is anyone having trouble downloading test4? the link isn't working for me and its taking forever to load.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] bmt626:
Try having wifi turned on mine usually locks right away
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dlongb13:
That's b/c your getting a wifi lock, not a GPS lock. You could have GPS off and get a "lock" via wifi.

Re-flash CM, fix permissions and try again. I had the keyboard issue once before, after a re-flash I was able to use any keyboard again. When I had the issue what I saw was.... I'd select keyboard in settings, save, go back in and it wouldn't be selected again.

I'm still seeing huge battery drain due to cell standby. I have a setcpu profile for screen off to try to preserve battery life, but it's not helping all that much. Also, I get a couple of random reboots during the day...not sure if they're related to having the leaked radio installed or if they're rom-related.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] DipRip:
I am experiencing the same. Phone barely makes it a day and standby is more than 50% of battery use. Do no know what to do about the battery life.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dlongb13:
ITS AN ALPHA. Heck it's a Pre-Alpha. This isnt designed to be a daily driver, this isn't optomized. Quit complaining about dumb ****. You arent going to get great battery life, especially if you one of the people getting 4g reception.

My donation will be on it's way very soon. I am very happy with the progress so far with this, and wanted to say great job!

I also have read each and every post to this thread starting on day one. Several times a day I come back to catch up on what others add. The reason I do this is so I can learn from others the tips and tricks. By reading everything it also makes it easier to filter out the problems that are not "real". (someone may have an issue that is not common to everyone else)

If you are serious it helps to do lots of reading because chances are your issues have probably been discussed time and time again.

Keep in mind this is a work in progress and it should be fun! No need to be upset if something doesn't work just right yet...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] DipRip:
Yes I know its a pre-alpha. You don't have to be a douche about it. I was just trying to point out a problem that could be improved upon. By the way, i am just using 3g only since i do not live in a 4g area yet.

3rd Party Keyboard

OK. So i just flashed back to stock rooted then wiped cache, dalvik cache, batt stats and installed Test 4(test3). Fixed permissions in clockwork and RM and still cant select a 3rd party keyboard. Tried better keyboard and gingerbread keyboard from market. Any ideas how to fix it? It's currently the only thing holding me back from using CM now that the in call audio quality is fixed.

[Thunderbolt Android Development] PerCompLLC:
Had the same problem on Tesla Coil... So this may not be specific to CM.

This rom is so nice awesome work. Everything works great not sure about LTE because I don't have it in my area. Only issue I'm having is I get searching for GPS in Google navigation and it doesn't stop any ideas? I know my GPS works because it comes on for foursquare and gowalla. Its definitely not a deal breaker still love this rom to much to give up on it. Any help would be great thanks

Yea I tried Keyboard Manager. It was a no go either. It shows better keyboard in the list and I can select it but when I go to type somewhere it reverts back to stock.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] tgwaste:
settings -> CM settings -> display -> automatic backlight

light levels -> use custom -> edit other levels

set number of levels to '2'

change both 'buttons' boxes to 255 and hit save

should be on all the time now..

i know.. completely absurd isnt it. make a setting that says 'always on' for goodness sakes. :)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] xCHPx:
but what about theme chooser apks? or is that not even incorporated yet?

Linear is a theme chooser apk =) Most of the themes that I've tried work fine, I just can't find the perfect one so I keep reverting to stock.

I don't have any problem with other keyboards. Using swype right now. Is it not allowing you to activate the keyboard in the settings or not allowing you to set it as the input method?
