I have a weird glitch with the Google+ app. When I use the Nearby stream, it uses the location I was last in. When I drove down to Irvine, it said I was in LA. When I drove back to LA, it said I was in Irvine. Not sure if its a CM7 thing or an app thing but I figured I'd give it a mention.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Mustang302LX:
Might be a google+ thing since it's still new and they are in beta still.

GPS and Phone Wackiness

So I got to test out the GPS and most of the features this weekend thoroughly.

I was updating facebook, switching 3g 4g in NY Transit from jersey to Penn Station. All worked flawless except for GPS.

GPS did not get a lock and Navigation took a good 35 mins to lock on.

Oddly enough on the way home yesterday GPS did not lock from downtown Manhattan until I got in to Cherry Hill New Jersey to Philadelphia area (it seemed to work fine) I tried toggling GPS, rebooting, etc...

I read the [CM7][Bug fix/info Consolidation]

would that GPS fix in that help?

Also I wonder if nighties are ever going to start with this phone.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] dieselhomey:
I use root explorer. I had ES File Explorer and it did not give permissions properly. I would dl and try again.

I actually re-installed everything Friday and easier method is leave the gtalk app (as is) and in recovery flash lithid-gapps-0504-signed.zip (do a search for that .zip name in this forum)

HTH's

any suggestions on different kernals:

I just flashed this and I'm trying to flash the Official OTA MR2 Radio 1.39.00.0627r from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1160346 and I keep getting aborted installations when trying to flash. Any ideas?

Edit: Now I am stuck at the lovely white htc screen. ugh. I've tried doing the volume down and power, but it just goes into the bootloader and automatically finds the update and I can't do anything. HALP!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ilovebbq:
for that issue, i'd probably take the microsd card out, connect it to a computer, and make the changes to the files you need

i.e. rename the bootloader file, and whatever zip files you need
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ApplCobbler:
Hey genius, you WANT to be in the bootloader. Take out your SD card and load it into a reader, then make sure pg05img.zip is named that exactly and put it in the root of the SD directory. Then load into bootloader and let it flash the new radio.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Mustang302LX:
I'm not a mod obviously and it's cool you are trying to help him but seriously with the "genius" remark? Comments like that are why people leave XDA or don't ask questions and mess up their phones! There is no place for it and was unwarranted.

I'd also like to know if there is a better kernel than stock that doesn't break anything i.e. the 4G handoff stuff. My stock battery doesn't get very good battery life on this ROM. My extended gets pretty good battery life but not stock (I really think I got a bad stock battery).
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ilovebbq:
this release works very well for me, except when the phone reboots for whatever reason

the last time, i dropped it and the battery popped out....

the three times my phone rebooted, i get a com.android.phone error that i can't fix :(

gets one bar of signal and promptly force close error...

for whatever reason, the only fix i can make is to wipe EVERYTHING and reinstall, which gets old after the first 3 times.

any ideas?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] holywhitebread:
Hey, genius, if you read my post, you would see that when it goes into bootloader, it automatically goes to "do you want to start update?" and I have no option to do anything but yes or no...whether I select yes or no, it still gets stuck on the white htc screen. :rolleyes:

I took the SD card out and got to Recovery...what are my options now that the SD card isn't in the phone?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Mustang302LX:
If I were you I sould take the SD card out and remove the PG05IMG.zip from the SD card completely. See if you can boot normally at that point. If it does you should download the OTA radio again and check MD5 and if all matches put it on SD card and try loading it in HBOOT again.

The only option you have in recovery without an SD card would be rebooting the system and see if it lets you past the HTC splash screen. You can also try clearing the cache that might help with any issues floating around.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] sincerity:
yea sounds like you're def gonna have to try and rid the sc card of that radio file from a computer or another phone or something. then it should boot up fine.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] holywhitebread:
Thanks, guys. I'll give it a go and see what happens.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] holywhitebread:
I finally got the new PG05IMG.zip to flash, but it's still stuck on the htc splash screen :(
[Thunderbolt Android Development] holywhitebread:
I removed the PG05IMG.zip file completely from the SD and it's still stuck on the htc screen :mad:

Am I SOL?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ei8htohms:
I'd love to get nighties also. Something lacey perhaps?

Sorry... couldn't resist. I know, I'm an infant.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Mustang302LX:
If it is booting I wouldn't think so but not 100%. Did you clear the cache/dalvik-cache in recovery? If you can still boot to recovery try loading a different MR2 based ROM/CM7 again and see if it boots.

If you do reload CM7 or change to a diff. ROM wipe /cache /dalvik-cache /data and /system to clean any issues out!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Derrtydozen:
The best battery life thus far for me has been with Drod's Kang Bang kernel, but again that's only with my phone, results vary from phone to phone ;)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Absolute_Zero:
Now that you've already flashed the ota mr2 radio and removed it from your sdcard. Boot to recovery holding Power+VolDown, wipe data/cache, flash CM7 mr2 (or whatever you want rom wise), reboot.

Edit:

Unless you also mean you don't have recovery as an option in hboot or you can't even get to hboot? In which case you may still be able to reflash it from adb.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] orkillakilla:
I had to go back to rooted stock. I love his rom more than any other. Only thing is either Android System or Handcent SMS gives me wake lock for 43mins. Its odd to because both times for both apps it was 43mins. Its not handcent because I never get that with it on stock.

Anyways, keep up the great work guys!

[Thunderbolt Android Development] holywhitebread:
I just cleared the cache/dalvik-cache and I booted back into the bootloader and tried again. Seems to still be stuck on the htc screen.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] holywhitebread:
I can't get to recovery with the SD in.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Mustang302LX:
If you can't get to recovery with the SD in that means there is still a PG05IMG.zip on the root of the SD card. It must be removed from the card.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] holywhitebread:
ah, I missed one on the card. Thanks. I finally got to recovery and it is now doing a restore from a nandroid I did earlier. Thanks for all of the help!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] wraithdu:
Has anyone else been seeing weird partial wake locks for apps?

I have a Slacker subscription and I cache a few stations. It is set NOT to automatically refresh, I must do it manually. I'm seeing Slacker grab a partial wake lock at about 1-2am every morning and not let it go. Now, Slacker support obviously told me to go test on a stock ROM... but maybe this is a wider problem with wake locks not being released properly?

Anyone seeing this problem with Slacker or other apps? You can check in Spare Parts -> Battery history -> Partial wake usage
[Thunderbolt Android Development] rycheme:
I've not checked in the past, but I'll keep an eye on it and report back.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Mustang302LX:
Cool hopefully everything boots fine. If your old backup was using the MR1 radio when you boot you won't have signal if you already flashed the new radio. If that's the case you should be able to reflash CM7 and be good to go.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] holywhitebread:
Ok, so I got the recovery to load, and like you said, I don't have signal. I tried doing a full wipe and flashed my old BAMF Remix 1.8.6 and still don't have signal...if I do a full wipe again, do I flash the CM7, reboot and then flash the radio?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] pcm2a:
Can the stock MMS app in CM7 be safely removed?

I would like one that uses "bubbles" or a conversation view, like Handcent. Handcent works fine except a few times I day I get a stock notification saying I got "27" messages and I have to open the old messages app one time. If I could remove it, I assume that would fix it.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Absolute_Zero:
If you just want to get rid of the stock notifications, it's in the options for the stock mms app.

But yes, the stock one can be removed. I uninstall mine after every flash since I use Handcent. Btw, if you choose Handcent, within it open settings->application settings and set it as default messaging app for all.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] pcm2a:
I did set it as the default and now I need to wear the dunce cap for not checking the stock mms for settings...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] holywhitebread:
This is a dumb and noob question, but since I did a full wipe and I restored everything via Titanium Backup, how do I get my contacts back?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] BBCasper:
Just confirmed. If I want any settings to stick at all, even GPS toggle, I have to reboot after enabling/disabling.

Any ideas?

I just installed the new test version and to my AMAZEMENT the gps worked. I went into maps and I was instantly locked to my exact location. I couldn't believe it since it locked on faster than I have ever locked on with my Thunderbolt!

With this now working I will be able to stay with this rom. Of course I am having issues with my data like everyone else... but I am very pleased.

Also this time my data turned on upon first boot without having to go in and make any adjustments. I look forward to seeing what things are like when the network is back up.

Thanks for the new release!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jakejonez:

Brightness settings I select doesnt save. Its good until screen timeout kicks in, then when I wake up the phone it reverts back to default brightness.

I not sure about the Test numbers , i downloaded Test 2 last night about 10:35 pm which was updated on the 04/26 and it was Cm -7.0.1 .

[Thunderbolt Android Development] Absolute_Zero:
If you had background synching on on your previous rom, and it's also on now, and you are logged in with the same Google account, they should restore automatically if you have a data connections.

Make sure Google Contacts is checked in Account&Syncs->Your Google account

You can backup/restore them with TiBu if the roms are based off of the same version of android but there is really no reason to do this.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] holywhitebread:
Now I keep getting com.android.phone FCs...someone halp.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] holywhitebread:
Cool, thanks! If I can get these FCs to stop, I'll try it.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Absolute_Zero:
Don't restore system apps or data (i.e. no greens and definitely no reds). Some greens are ok to some extent but some of those cause problems as well so just to be safe don't restore them for now.

Full wipe will fix your problems but you may get away with just clearing app data for the system apps you damaged. Ex: try force closing and clearing app data for Dialer and Dialer storage. If that didn't work, also clear Contacts and Contacts Storage. But as I said, if you go through a lot and none of them fix your problem after rebooting, a data wipe will.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] holywhitebread:
Gotcha. I'm just gonna do a full wipe. Afterwards, I can just reinstall them from Google Apps?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Absolute_Zero:
I'm not sure what you want to reinstall. You already have the rom and gapps flashed I assume. So now you would just boot to recovery and wipe data/cache. The rom and gapps will remain after wiping data/cache.

Just PM me if you have any more questions so we don't keep filling this thread.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] holywhitebread:
I don't have gapps. Show me the way.

[Thunderbolt Android Development] stearic:
Those old recoveries and roms only work with the old radio that came stock with the phone. You'll need to flash a rom that works with the official MR2 radio like CM7 or the latest RC of Das Bamf 3.0. Sounds like you did flash everything right with the radio.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] idle0095:
how come any app i use (fancy widgets or BW etc...) will not locate me? I have gps on and location by cell site and it wont locate me? I want fancy widget to update when im in another city like sense htc flip clock did. Is this a rom issue?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] stearic:
As has been stated many a time in this thread, you'll have to do the gps trick by backing up your install, flashing a sense based rom, getting a gps lock and then restoring your back up. As for cell based gps locking, that is still not working at the moment (hence the RC before 1.2). Please at least do a search before you post stuff in this thread as it just adds needless posts to an already long thread.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] idle0095:
so can i use a sence based back up instaed like das bamf 3.0 rc 4.9 then get the lock then re back up to cm7?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Derek1267:
So I have an interesting issue. After about a week or perfect performance, a good amount of the time my screen will not wake when I hit the power button. Sometimes its fine but other times it just doesnt do anything or the capacitive buttons light up but it just hangs with a dark screen.

Are there any fixes for thing if anyone had the same issue?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Unseeablething:
Stock kernel or Lean? Imo's lean kernel 3.5.2 and I think .1 have been doing that.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Derek1267:
Yeah it's the lean kernel D=
[Thunderbolt Android Development] stearic:
As stated, you need to use one that is made to use the new radio(s). Your old back up is useless unless you flash the older radio to your phone. You will have to flash the new one for it to work. You don't have to let it get setup all the way, just enough to get into maps and get a gps lock for you to reboot and restore your CM recovery.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Mustang302LX:
He stated his old backup is of BAMF 3.0 RC4.9 which uses the MR2+ radio so he will be able to keep his radio and switch to that ROM, get a GPS fix, and restore CM7.

thanks guys. I will try that out and hope it works.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] irvine32:
Guys, I have been noticing a lot lately that I'm having white 4g as opposed to the green 4g and it seems to be very intermittent. I'm in the same locations on a daily basis so I'm pretty familiar with my coverages(and no it's not the number of bars showing that I'm talking about). When I first downloaded RC1.2 I noticed as others had pointed out that when I opened my browser or my email it would rapidly go from 4g white > 4g green> nothing >and then finally would catch on ultimately getting me where I wanted to go after a few seconds. It doesn't seem to be a cosmetic glitch since it does stop me briefly from getting to the site that I want to go to. Anyway, just something I thought I would point out to Slayher if others are having the problem. If it's been brought already don't beat me up too bad I think I have stayed up on this thread quite well.

Is anyone else dropping data completely? 4g just turned on in my area today 3 days ahead of schedule, so it could just be the network. . but I go from having perfect 4g to having no data at all. (No 1x, 3g, or 4g) I try toggling but no dice. The only thing that has been working is a reboot.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] joshnichols189:
It'll do that, but especially since you just got 4G. Mine does this when I install off a fresh wipe of everything and it's like that for a little while but eventually it will settle

[Thunderbolt Android Development] ApplCobbler:
Not sure how a ROM has anything to do with this, but in switching from CM7 to InfectedTh3ory, my signal rating went from -88 to -73. This was sitting in the same position in the same location and not moving the phone for over two hours.

Does it mean anything? Probably not, but check your signal rating and report back, especialy if you do any jumping back and forth. It would be refreshing to know that I wasn't crazy thinking I got way less reception and speed moving to CM7.

So, if I do that will I not get any notifications at all?

EDIT: Finally got around to testing this...... So, the answer to this is NO, I will not get any v/m notification if I uncheck that box - not even the little icon in the top bar. So, I changed my "sound" for notifications to "silent" and left the box checked so I'll at least get the little v/m icon up in the top notification bar. Hopefully there will eventually be a fix for this. My other notifications work fine. thanks though for that suggestion, at least it helps a bit. :-)
