Lol thanks
[Thunderbolt Android Development] beavis9k:
It has for me so far in a few hours of testing. I obviously haven't changed every setting and rebooted to check - I just tested the settings I knew I had problems with before.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] tanium:
Thank you.

I had to mess with it a bit.

Clicking all the setting until I seen life.

Then clicked the setting in your post and bang.

4g popped up and the phone started a sync process.

The cm7 mod rom is old school aosp goodness.

This thing seems very fast, snappy and just smoking.

I went to the market and clicked download maps.

Looked in the upper notification bar and it said installing.

I was like ok where did the downloading part go,lol

I also installed advanced task killer froyo just for a view.

Started out with 375 MB free after kill, while posting,just checked and I'm at 320 free.

Wow that's nice, tells me a lot less crap running on cm7.

That must lead to better battery life :)

Ok well I need to play with it for a few days.

But at first glance, I'm happy with the performance.

I'm glad my curiosity got the best of me.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] SUB-dawg:
can I flash the newest CM7 version over the previous without wiping data?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] CBMC:
I did. No problems that I know of. YMMV.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] 2k10MBC300SPT:
if VVM would work with this Rom, I'd stay with it..
[Thunderbolt Android Development] iastonish:
Really diggin this rom.

I suggest checking out the theme honeybread in the market as well. It's free and is a pretty cool integration of honeycomb themed for gingerbread.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Gr8gorilla:
Google Voice works and is pretty decent. It gives the VVM effect. Why are you not using google voice on your Google phone?

BLASPHEMER, BURN HIM AT THE STAKE!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Turb0wned:
This is the way all android phones should come. I really wish I could keep this rom but to many bugs. Can download mms can't hold a steady 4g... I can't wait till this is done.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] gdanko:
okay this is how I got it to work (wifi, gps, etc)

* Reboot into CWR

* Create nandroid backup

* Factory data wipe

* Install DasBAMF 1.7

* Reboot

* Test wifi/GPS

* Reboot into recovery via adb reboot recovery

* Factory wipe x3

* Install CM7

* Install gapps 20110307

* Reboot

All works

Bluetooth easy 'fix': after hitting call with your bt connected, hit 'speaker' till you hear a ring, then back to Bluetooth. Works every time.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] MoeDaddy:
I had this issue as well bet the newest release fixed it for me and my BT works perfectly...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Nikolai2.1:
So i gotta ask, what exactly are we waiting for, for this rom to be considered stable? I know it has it's minor issues, but the only thing I see wrong honestly is data not connecting to google servers fast enough, and no signal bars with 4G :p

Other than that quite honestly its really cool!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] MoeDaddy:
For me this is stable but I'd imagine to be considered a stable release by the devs they will have to work out some of the 4g/3g/gps/wifi bugs that still plague some users and get the ril merged to become official cyanogen release. I no longer have any issues other than having to reboot every now and then to fix wifi I also don't live in a 4G area so I can't really say how well that is woking/not working...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Turb0wned:
MMS, 4G, GPS, WIFI... Almost but not yet.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] stanlalee:
what problems are people having with MMS? I asked my wife to send me pictures via text and I received and downloaded them without issue. Is this an intermittent problem that comes and goes? I was also at home on wifi, is this a 3g/4g only problem?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Turb0wned:
Not sure but I seem to have all, for now im going to use the telsa rom but I cant wait till this gets done.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] tanium:
Have not tested wifi, later at home.

I do see an issue with 4g, It goes out, no connection.

It will just have the 4 signal bars.

Then I have to go to settings, wireless and networks, mobilenetworks.

Pick back and forth on cdma-lte/evdo auto and the others.

Then I'll see a bar or 2 turn white then green ill see 1x.

Then put back on cdma-lte/evdo auto, then 3g pops up, then 4g pops back up.

I have had this twice in about 3 hours I'm new to cm7.

Once when I had to reboot from flashing the dreamkernal 1_1_8.

This needs to be fixed.

Its all good and I understand alpha.

Just wanting to voice up, that problem blows,lol

Hope the issue gets some love soon.

Seems well known going by many other posts.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] qman66:
WOW!!!!! took me a while to figure out how to flash something thru fastboot but worth the time. i can finally use wifi normally. thank you so much!!!!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] bucklyv:
This, I did not know. Good thing to know though!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] major_works:
I've been finding that I am unable to send email. I have three accounts: Microsoft Exchange, Gmail, and Yahoo. I can receive email on all. Any suggestions for what to look at?

EDIT: Never mind... seems to be working now.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] tuanster1119:
Gave this a try last night, moved over from Das Bamf 1.7. I loved everything about it except the lack of 4G. Wifi was also a little flaky. I'm looking forward to the next revision, I can definitely see myself switching back to the CM7 beta once 4G is fixed.

Keep up the great work!

CVPCS Joins TB CM7 Team

For those of you who might not know who CVPCS is, a quick background. He was known in the OG Droid realm as the developer of the outstanding ROM Sapphire. He's a brilliant android dev, and he gave up his own project to join the Cyanogenmod team as the OG Droid maintainer.

He announced last night that he was going to help Slayher get the Mecha (TB) tree merged with the mainline, and get it ready for nightly releases. This is great news for all of us who have been aching for AOSP love on our TB, but just can't rely on the Alpha builds for our daily driver. Hopefully CVPCS and Slayher will have some good stuff for us in the coming weeks!

Nows as good a time as ever to show these guys some love for feeding our addiction. You can donate to the CyanogenMod Project directly on their website (scroll down to the bottom of the homepage). Donate directly to Slayher here, or just click the 'Donate' link under his name in one of his posts. I don't know if CVPCS has a way to donate directly to him set up, but if I find a link I'll post it.

These guys don't get paid for all their hard work, and a little bit goes a long way. It may only buy them a 6pack every now and then, but I promise they will appreciate the support and be even more motivated to work on these projects for our enjoyment!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] intangibleDroid:

Best news I've heard all week!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] derekft:
Can't wait. I'm tired of senseui. Good job guys and keep up the good work.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mrchambo:
+1,000,000!

This means that not only will CM7 become a reality on the TB, but that MIUI for the TB is not too much further away, either! Welcome to the TB team, cvpcs! Loved Ruby on the Dinc...

[Thunderbolt Android Development] gdanko:
I think.. ril and videocam mic.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] gdanko:
MMS has always worked for me.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] gdanko:
So for whatever reason, installing a Sense-based ROM (in my case, BAMF 1.7) got GPS and WiFi to work under rc0.2 on my phone.

Presumably a factory reset wipes data, cache, etc.. And restoring the ROM formats the partitions ext4.

How would this be the one thing to make it all work? Does the Sense ROM set a flag in the hardware somehow? I am really curious.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] contractcooker:
I have reverted back to stock everything (rooted) I've been following this thread somewhat but may have missed something. Is there a place I can find step by step instructions? I have tried numerous kernel/radio combos with CM7 and have never been able to get 3g or 4G working. Sometimes I get WiFi but it seems flaky at best. Any advice would be appreciated
[Thunderbolt Android Development] gdanko:
Start with 100% factory stock... Froyo ROM from HTC

1) Root your phone

2) Create the directory /sdcard/cm7

3) Download http://goo-inside.me/cm/mecha/rc/update-cm-7.1.0-RC0.2-Thunderbolt-KANG-signed.zip and copy it to /sdcard/cm7

4) Download http://goo-inside.me/gapps/gapps-gb-20110307-signed.zip to /sdcard/cm7

5) Make sure GPS and WiFi are working

6) Install ROM Manager and Titanium Backup

7) Backup all apps/settings via TB

8) Open ROM Manager, boot into Recovery and backup your device

9) Do a factory reset, format data 2-3x to be sure :)

10) Wipe cache

11) Wipe dalvik cache

12) Install zip from sdcard, select /sdcard/cm7/update-cm-7.1.0-RC0.2-Thunderbolt-KANG-signed.zip

13) Install zip from sdcard, select /sdcard/cm7/gapps-gb-20110307-signed.zip

14) Reboot

15) Sit on the main screen with the big Android for a couple minutes while the phone picks up its data connection

16) Touch the Android to begin and configure your phone

If you do not know your way around ROM Manager and TB first, I suggest you figure these guys out first. :D
[Thunderbolt Android Development] major_works:
I was unable to get it working either until I preceded flashing with a 3X factory reset/wipe caches. Flashed the ROM and the 2.3.4 GAPPS at the same time, no reboot in between. However, some people have posted that you should reboot but I didn't. You might want to try it that way; your call. I'm using the stock radios. I get pretty solid 3G and 4G here in Manhattan now, though I still have to do the toggle thing a couple of times a day. WiFi works fine for me too.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] FSRBIKER:
This is for the one or no ring on calls:

Just choose a longer ringtone and that fixes it.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Turets:
I've got everything working on test 4 except for Bluetooth headset, and I've tried a few different by headsets to make sure it wasn't that. Any thoughts? I've tried flashing different kernels, etc... any thoughts? Bt worked on previous roms just peachy. Thanks for the help and hard work !
[Thunderbolt Android Development] beavis9k:
You're welcome. Hopefully I'll have a CW flashable zip in the next day or two - but I wanted to get this out so others could get their wifi working normally.

[Thunderbolt Android Development] idkwhothatis123:
Thanks! Best kernel pairing for this rom?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] fallingd0wn:
So far this is working great for me.

Steps:

got a gps lock in BAMF

Made a backup

wiped data/dalvik

flashed ROM and GAPPS

used ADB in recovery to reboot into bootloader

flashed wifi fix

rebooted

Wifi connects immediately when enabled and after a reboot. I still have to toggle back into EVDO first before LTE will kick in but it does connect. GPS seems to lock on as well. Thanks for the fix!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] lrs421:
This is awesome news. I agree. Support the devs who keep us moving. Can't wait to get CM7 back.

http://crackflashers.com/DRod2169/Thunderbolt/Kernels/wififix.zip
[Thunderbolt Android Development] gdanko:
I see people saying "locked 9 of 9 GPS".. how do you determine how many you are locking?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] lrs421:
Download gps test or gps status from the market.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] noisufnoc:
I haven't really had much problem with wifi on my phone, would you guys advise still flashing the wififix anyway?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] gdanko:
I have GPS Status but cannot see where I can determine how many are locked.

Okay I see it now. I had to be outside. :) Locking 4/4 while standing near a window.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] avlfive:
Thanks. This still reverts back to the stock kernel though, right? Because I was really liking yours so far.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] beavis9k:
Yes. The fix has the immediate effect of fixing wifi and possibly settings not sticking, but it's a fix to a low level problem and very possible it could help with other things.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Bimmer323:
Excellent!! More Mecha CM goodness (or Godness)!! :D
[Thunderbolt Android Development] drod2169:
Yeah. I'll be updating my kernel tonight with the patch
[Thunderbolt Android Development] avlfive:
And then I'll be flashing that one also. Thanks man.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] FSRBIKER:
Once it locks onto 5+ satellites it usually shows the distance shortly after, once this gets down to say under 30 feet I close it down. From then on my GPS/Maps has a lock in under 5 seconds.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] FSRBIKER:
Ive had this happen with Handcent on a previous CM7 alpha but the pics show up in the stock MMS app, it also shows up using Go SMS.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] fallingd0wn:
Have you guys tried manually entering the APN info or using an APN backup from a previous ROM? I'm not having any trouble with MMS to/from other carriers after I manually entered the settings.

How do you manually enter it? Ill try
[Thunderbolt Android Development] toebee76:

However the wpa2 wifi issue remains for me.

With the new wifi fix it now just immediately stops trying to connect and simply says error lol.

[Thunderbolt Android Development] major_works:
I just flashed the WiFi fix. WiFi works, 3G works, 4G works. The GPS says I'm in Kopavogur, Iceland, but it said that before I flashed the .zip. I'm in Chelsea in Manhattan, or at least I think I am.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] FSRBIKER:
I'm on the Drods kernel now with Beavis9 fix built in. I flashed it and didn't get a data connection right away so I rebooted, then it was connected. Very quick internet data transfer on 3g now, connects to my work WPA2 router and switched right back to 3g data with no issues. No 4g in my area to test though.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jawonder:
Kernel works fine for me hand off is instant no need to reboot .
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Archangel:
does 4g stick with the new fix?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] SCDroid:
i'm on baseband radio 1.16.00.0402w_1 (downgraded from GB unfortunately) and am wanting to flash the CM7a. What steps do i need to take to get everything working? can i keep this radio?

TIA
[Thunderbolt Android Development] major_works:
Now I've flashed the Drod kernel. I didn't get a data connection on boot either. Didn't get one when I rebooted. I still had to do it manually through the settings. WiFi works fine with our WPA/WPA2 router here in the office.

With this kernel and WiFi fix, should I be expecting automatic handoffs like I'd get with Sense ROMs?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mattgyver83:
Just to clear some confusion is the zip drods custom kernel with beavis's fix or is this just beavis's fix in zip form? Reading others comments its a little hard to determine.

n/m figured this out on my own, the md5s are the same so.. thats that.

I seem to be having some audio problems. Sound through the speakers sounds distorted and when I plug in my headphones, no sound comes out the right ear bud. Anyone else experience this?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] toebee76:
Sent. Thanks for the interest...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] bmt626:
Interesting now 3g data shows no bars with latest wifi fix where as before it was only 4g that had this problem but 3g 4g hand off seems to work great
[Thunderbolt Android Development] LSUstang05:
Yep. I just noticed this today. I tried multiple different music players in CM7 and it wouldn't play out of the right earbud also. I then restored to a Sense ROM and music was clear and playing out of both ear buds so it's definitely something in the ROM.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] major_works:
As a data point, audio is OK for me.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] FSRBIKER:
Data switches between 3g to wifi for me are seemless. Just for info I am on 223r radio.

FYI: the flashable zip Drod posted he said was of the original kernel with the Beavis fix included. The one he tweeted was his own kernel with the fix included.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] FSRBIKER:
Are you on the latest build? That was an earlier issue that Slayher fixed.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] EggoEspada:
Yea, pretty sure I am. Just flashed CM7 for the first time last night.

EDIT: Just decided to download again. Seems the first two links are the older ROM version (7.0.0) which is what I flashed last night. Downloading the newer one (7.1.0) now. We'll see if it works. :)

I've had this problem on the newest build. I went back to the old build (the 5/17 one) and was fine.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] miketoasty:
You can use any radio (Froyo) radio that is. It is recommended though that you stay on the stock radio.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] xndzizz:
doesn't the 5/17 build have audio problems?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] SCDroid:
w_1 is the newest stock radio correct?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mmtoman:
What security protocol should I have my router to still have security but be able to connect easily? I hate not having wifi on my phone!
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Marhey:
400w_1 is the most recent FROYO radio. However, people are referring to 223r when they write "stock radio".
[Thunderbolt Android Development] miketoasty:
It should be fixed with an alternate kernel allowing you to use any type of security you please.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] bamaredwingsfan:
What kind of battery life is everyone getting from Cyanogen7? Ive ran both 1.17 an 1.1.8 kernal an both get crappy battery life compared to my froyo setups. Currently i am running kernal 1.1.8 only overclocked to 1.2, an i keep GPS off an don't use it at all. I don't live in a 4G area, so i don't think that is effecting it.

Is about 6 hrs about the max we can currently get on the cyanogen7 setup? Other than Gmail being delivered, i didn't do any browsing on the internet or twitter today at all. Any suggestions bout kernals to try would be appreciated.

Wifi fix breaks my wifi. I get "Error" every single time, even after multiple reboots.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jakejonez:
Try re-flashing the zip. I've had this issue flashing kernels before, and, since this one replaces your current kernel, I imagine it might be plagued with the same inconsistency.

EDIT: I'm having the same issue. And no, I don't have Imo's wififix installed. Not that it matters, since my main source of wifi is WPA2. :-/
[Thunderbolt Android Development] beavis9k:
Do you have Imoseyon's wififix installed too?

Anyone have a mirror to the newest test? I have tried downloading it 5 times now and it only gets up to about 5MB.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Bimmer323:
Crappy, but worth it. :D

Tried every kernel out there w/same results. I gauge my battery mainly while I'm asleep. Data turned off. I lose about 20% battery in 7 hours, on all kernels. With Sense roms, I would lose maybe 4% max, sometimes only 1%.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jakejonez:
Oops. Not allowed to mirror.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jakejonez:
This latest pre-alpha has shown the best battery life for me, which still has me losing around 10%/hour. Once the cell standby usage is fixed, I have an inkling it wouldn't be quite so dramatic.
