[Vibrant Android Development] Cesarp 24:
I think kb5 isn't working for 25 .

[Vibrant Android Development] nirogu325:
I really am puzzled by the latest posts. I ODINed, flashed #25, then Neo 7 kernel (to check if the battery claims are true), then the KB5 modem (all three in one swoop). All is working well. Zero disconnects, smooth all the way, no issues as of this writing. I never upgrade by overwriting the last nightly, I just ODIN. Perhaps that's the issue people are having here? :confused:
[Vibrant Android Development] cojonesx:
anyone using a modem or kernel that doesn't come with CM7 shouldn't even be posting problems here, they should take them to the appropriate threads. I am glad alternatives exist but there are enough problems and clutter without having to deal with more noise for problems users are creating for themselves.
[Vibrant Android Development] apollo15rover:
I disagree with this strongly. I think it's fine to post as long as the authors acknowledge the developers won't assist with other kernels and modems. I think these posts are helpful in knowing what nightlies work with outside elements and which don't. If we were all nice and passively not trying new or different things, we wouldn't even be interested in custom ROMs... just 2.1 with GPS and a factory warranty in place..
[Vibrant Android Development] nirogu325:
You have a point, but uh...oh hell...XDA won't change no matter what anyone here says or wants to pretend being a mod by telling people what they have to post and what not to post. Unrelated posts will still appear, GPS questions will still appear, Google apps questions and whatnot related to lack of reading will still appear no matter what. It is a waste of time (and space) to try and stop this. Just let the mods do their work. Yeh yeh...I know this post may have no place here as the ones I'm talking about but meh, it's just my opinion on the matter. Would love to see things getting back on topic :).
[Vibrant Android Development] Sdobron:
I upgraded by overwriting for 22 to 25, no issues. I seem to have better battery life on the stock kernel versus neo 6 or 7 though.
[Vibrant Android Development] :
since i have been on 24, the battery life has gotten a lot better. my phone was charged to full last night and i took off the charger around 10 pm. since then until now, 1:58pm, i am currently at 69%. CM7 is indeed getting better nightly.

Quick question. I just flashed this but I can't for the life of me figure out how to make the browser download .3gp files instead of opening them. Other than that I'm really liking CM7.

[Vibrant Android Development] T.C.P:
trynna download porn huh :p, download astro file manager from market and enable downloads in preference setting, this will allow you to download any file format from browser
[Vibrant Android Development] hockeyrcks9901:
No porn. I tried that with astro. I've always done it that way before but it still only gives me the choice for Movies or Rock Player.

[Vibrant Android Development] Nabeel10:
Hey, im downloading now, but to everyone, it seems as if the latest nightly is the most stable correct?
[Vibrant Android Development] treyvaporizer:
Correct me if I'm wrong, but GPS should be working soon. It has been fixed on the JVP 2.3.4 roms. The OP said that it should work on any gingerbread rom. I believe the files for GPS were pulled from the galaxy s 4G, which has the same chip as the T959.
[Vibrant Android Development] gamikzone:
omg you you used the G word! :p
[Vibrant Android Development] nirogu325:

No, the kernel's init.rc will need to be modified to accomodate the different kind of gps, according to Roman's post we use AGPS where as most other devices use gpsd as such the kernel will need to be modified

id assume so, if i had the knowledge on how to decompile and recompile a kernel id make the changes my self n test it out. sadly tho im completely inept at this sort of thing, just good at seeking out information from time to time.

look up at my earlier post for the development topic regarding gps for 2.3.4

**EDIT**

looking a little more indepth at the files in the gps fix, outside the kernel and the modem, most the files do have direct corrolaries, im gonna try copying over files and playing around with it alil to see if i can get it to work, (CM7 devs are already using agps in our builds however flashing the fix would almost certainly cause atleast a soft brick due to the differences in the partitioning)

our phone just got alot more exciting :P

Than ill know which to flash later. :-)
[Vibrant Android Development] nirogu325:
Did you came from ODIN before upgrading to #25? My Wi-Fi has never failed on #19, #22 nor #25 now (those are all the nightlies I've been after the unnoficial ones back in May). If you did ODIN, perhaps it is your phone. None of my friends that now have #25 (all 4 of them) have disconnects so your issue's weird. Did you check your router settings, firmware and configuration? That can also relate to your issue. Just giving you ideas :).
[Vibrant Android Development] gbakabg:
I'm on 25 so ...I tend to flash back and forth for this and a 2.2 rom but I haven't had any issues

Sorry I know this is the dev section but I have to say it in here.

I just installed CM 7 and it is amazing....I thought Bionix 1.3.2 was quick but nothing comes close to AOSP android.
[Vibrant Android Development] Sdobron:
Doesn't work for me coming from 25. Boot loop, reflashed 25 and all is well again though.
[Vibrant Android Development] cojonesx:
same here and didn't have adb to check into the problem. Back to #25 for now

CM7 is not AOSP.

Gringerbread (CM7) is faster the Froyo (Bionix 1.3.2)
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
... I thought cm7 was aosp wtf!!!! I'm so confused!!!

Also just 1 more confirmation 26 is... GOOD TO GO, right?
[Vibrant Android Development] bbm21:
It's based on aosp so it pretty much is but you could argue its not technically
[Vibrant Android Development] inrelief:
CM7 takes the AOSP code and provides both bugfixes and enhancements to it.
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
Correct so it's not... it's CM. Or maybe in some odd way it could still be consisted AOSP since it's has more fixes, runs better and has tons of code not found in AOSP
[Vibrant Android Development] inrelief:
Yeah, I wasn't disagreeing with you. I could've made that clearer.
[Vibrant Android Development] djf8:
My point was CM (Based on AOSP) >>> than Anything based on TouchWiz.
[Vibrant Android Development] iBustCh3rries:
opps mis post
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
Sorry, that wasn't directed at you... just a generally statement. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
You could say TouchWiz is based on AOSP with Samsung's fixes (or breaks) and code. All phone running Android are based on AOSP

But the end result is that it's no longer AOSP anymore.

Sorry, I'm done.... long day already
[Vibrant Android Development] djf8:
I understand what you are saying, it's just you could make a similar argument about just about anything hehe.
[Vibrant Android Development] fishman0919:
True.

I guess my point is that... the Nexus One's OS was AOSP at the time... the Nexus S's OS is AOSP

but that's not what CM is, is it.

So, I guess for someone to say that CM7 is AOSP is a bit silly... it not, it CM... it's better.
[Vibrant Android Development] nirogu325:
I'm on #26 and experienced a crash while using Bluetooth (came from ODIN so the issue may be related to something in this specific release). Buttons turned on but not the screen, nothing else responded. I guess my little vacation with CM7's over until a Stable release comes. Back to Froyo.
[Vibrant Android Development] bruno.borges:
****, something terrible happened.

I pushed #26 to my phone with adb while it was on Recovery mode, then simply install it.

After booting it up, started an infinite loop. The Recovery screen comes up, some things are written and then reboots again.

Have anyone come to this before?

I can get into Download Mode, but I've never used this functionality before, so I really don't know what to do here.

I have Heimdall on my computer, just need to know how to proceed.

Help is welcome! :-)
[Vibrant Android Development] krntehknik303:
I had that similar crash but from rebooting my phone. And I ended up with a lot of force closes on the phone. This was on #25 what I did was reinstall 25 and wipe dalvik cache and wipe cache partition and fix permissions. That cleared up a lot of things anand now I am on #26 with no issues as of yet.
[Vibrant Android Development] :
pull the battery

power phone on with button combo for recovery

phone should boot into recovery

apply your update.zip again

[Vibrant Android Development] scotttm1:
People are stupid and can't read....

CM7 is experimental and it amazes me how stupid people are even allowed to post in this thread about kernels, *****ing about GPS when all has been covered in OP. People ask the same stupid questions over and over and then make ignorant statements because they are NOOBS! If they took 20 minutes tops to read the OP, then go to the the last page and read 10 -20 pages back so not only will they have a decent understanding of where we are at in development but also it will help them make fact based statements. So someone else :mad: doesn't read and take it as fact as opposed to operator malfunction. Reading is your friend. I've read this whole thread countless times and that's why most people don't have problems nor do they post BS!
