I too hope that the source comes real soon. Even the Galaxy Tab from Sprint is getting GB by July and the Captivate already has a leak, same with Epic back in May. It's bizarre nothing has come yet for the Vibrant (not that I've read/heard of). I sure hope the merger stuff has nothing to do with this since...well you know the carrier is also involved in smartphone updates. I too want to come back to CM7 (like moonfire711 and surely others) but the aforementioned reasons (specially the battery drain) are also stopping me.

[Vibrant Android Development] geoffcorey:
Charge to 100%, then using root explorer or android terminal, delete /data/system/battstats.bin (the cwm way seems not to work as well). Then reboot you phone. Let it charge to 100% again (this also ensures your phone is fully started up) and then unplug and use it normally untilled you get as close as you can to the phone being completely out of juice. Charge back up and you're good to go.

[Vibrant Android Development] krazie1:
You beat me to it. :) I didn't notice any changelog though. But anyway for ol' time sakes.

Nightly #41 is UP and Posted!
[Vibrant Android Development] movieaddict:
Anyone try #41?
[Vibrant Android Development] Phateless:
Seems fine so far. Nothing to report.
[Vibrant Android Development] mikeku:
Which carrier r u?
[Vibrant Android Development] movieaddict:
41 is fine! no bootloops for me and it seems to work fine for me
[Vibrant Android Development] inrelief:
Guys -- there are quite literally no changes in 41. There is no reason to flash it.

[Vibrant Android Development] cwalker29:
What the hell? Then why is up? Is like 40 or 6? U get my point
[Vibrant Android Development] shreddintyres:
You clearly misunderstand what a nightly build is ... the code is recompiled nightly by an automated bot now generally when given the same code it should compile exactly the same but it is possible for there to be differences between the two if something was or was not compiled correctly compared to the previous iteration.

You are not bound to flash every nightly if you look at the changelog and don't see an appreciable difference then don't flash, no one is forcing you.

Wow brother. You said that with great profession! How can I get mad at that? Thank you from the bottom of my heart. (Tears) now I understand why:) now before some of u think I'm being a ass.

whats the best nightly to pair with neo10 or any other kernel for that matter because i really need voodoo sound and color. i was on nightly #38 with neo10 but i was getting sleep of death andnrandom reboots
[Vibrant Android Development] cashyftw:
Don't talk about other kernels on this thread, feel free to pm me about it though.
[Vibrant Android Development] gamikzone:
guys why is it whenever i try using a cm7/miui rom it is never able to read my external sd? i wish it could because i miss cm7 nightlys i havent been able to use it since build 21 :(, i have tried to odin to stock jfd and re flash but that doesnt resolve the problem, i dont have this problem on other 2.3.4 JVP roms
[Vibrant Android Development] Phateless:
I'm able to read all 32gb of my external sd.
[Vibrant Android Development] Demetris:
Go back to froyo bootloader if you have gb, this will fix it.

Go read the faq :)
[Vibrant Android Development] db3:
are you looking in the right place? /emmc or /mnt/emmc? i haven't tried the JVP roms, but since they use samsung bootloaders, i suspect the external sd is still mapped to /external_sd or something like that...
[Vibrant Android Development] apollo15rover:
I'm a big fan of VooDoo Color as well, but the latest nightlies don't seem to work all that well with any of the custom kernels that run it (du Jour, Glitch & Neo10), so am sticking to stock for the long term. After the final is done and the kernel folks catch up, I'll think about trying it out again.

As cashyftw said, it's good never to report problems with those kernels here..

But since my phones also my alarm clock, I have to have at least some semblance of stability.

As far as sound is concerned, the stock kernel already runs Voodoo sound.
[Vibrant Android Development] cheesyFbaby:
didnt know voodoo sound came with stock kernel. i can live without OC/UV and color till the custom kernels get updated. thaaaanks
[Vibrant Android Development] atinm:
People with mute/unmute issues - can you use the Voodoo Sound app from the market (the Voodoo sound app is compatible with the stock kernel) and change the Recording Preset to Original and see if that helps anything. The Fascinate seems to have the same issue, and setting the recording preset to original seems to fix it, so i want to see if it also helps on the Vibrant. If it does, I'll do some mods to the driver that duplicate that.
[Vibrant Android Development] konigswagger:
where can i DL the stock kernel (that's compatible with cm7?)?
[Vibrant Android Development] hitman818:
Flash cm7 again.
[Vibrant Android Development] hitman818:
It will be great if it works and the wifi disconnecting from time to time, but I heard its fixed so I dont know, then I could go back to cm7.
[Vibrant Android Development] Wizeblood:

~Thanx! You know what you did!~
[Vibrant Android Development] AgentFour20:
Just did it I text someone to call me ill report back
[Vibrant Android Development] movieaddict:
i couldnt tell the difference as i had my roomate callme
[Vibrant Android Development] atinm:
Oh well - I didn't think it would, but was worth a try if it helps fascinate solve the same problem. I'd like others to also try it just to make sure.
[Vibrant Android Development] movieaddict:
i dont know if enough people tell u this!!!! ur doing one hell of a job Atinm helping us and Thank you very much.
[Vibrant Android Development] moonfire711:
I know I said I was looking for a rom without this issue, but I am more than happy to flash this thing if I can contribute to solving the issue. I'm not a dev, but I'll be a good little guinea pig. Thanks for continuing to look into this. Everything you are doing is much appreciated. I'll report back with what I find.

Update: Using Voodoo sound doesn't seem to make any difference. Every inbound call results in me sounding normal for about 2 seconds or less and then it makes me sound like a very quiet and synthesized robot (that is until I mute/unmute my phone). Thanks for trying. I'll probably still stick with this rom for a bit anyway since it is so lightning fast.
[Vibrant Android Development] asatnik11:
I also got the same result before and after changing the Recording Preset to Original. Bummer.

While this problem is annoying I'm just happy to have CM7 on my Vibrant. Thanks for your efforts.
[Vibrant Android Development] moonfire711:
I did some more experimenting with the mute/unmute issue and I sound normal for about 2 seconds, then I sound like a robot for about 20 seconds, then I go back to sounding normal for what I would assume to be the rest of the call (I've only test for about a minute at a time).

I am on nightly 40. Not sure how much this helps, but maybe this info can be of some sort of use. Then again, maybe not. :rolleyes: I'm trying.
[Vibrant Android Development] gmiller777:
I have to feel if enough people work on this we can get the mute / unmute fixed. I had to switch off because the problem was too bad for clients to hear me. Thanks to all who can help. My favorite ROM just phone has to work.

OK, I haven't looked into it much but I found this:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1123423

I am not using CM7 at this time so I can't download and try but this might be a easier temp fix for the mute/unmute users have to do for phone calls. Let us know if this works.
[Vibrant Android Development] gamikzone:
it seems like a great app but i havent found a mute/unmute for outgoing call lol
[Vibrant Android Development] AgentFour20:
In my experience the mute/unmute bug is only on incoming calls. Also there is no option for mute/unmute on incoming calls in AutomateIt . I just requested that he add a mute/unmute action .

Next nightly looks like it will bring some interesting changes..

Lol!! Agreed...what does it all mean??? Whatever, just nice to know someone still cares about our phone. Keep up the good work Devs...running smoothly on #42 with the obvious issues...loving it none the less.;)
[Vibrant Android Development] apollo15rover:
I know what you mean. I'm curious about the new Red Rendering - I hope they don't screw around with it too much - I use it quite frequently at night and love it just the way it is. It's also one of the unique things about CM7 that have made me stick with this rather than trying out the JVD ROMS out there..
[Vibrant Android Development] rom fiend:
Has anyone else seen the new thread about faster dl and connection speed by altering the code in one of the system files? The reason I ask here also is I wanted to know specifically from people on cm7 if this is safe to do running cm7?

Edit: disregard sorry!! Btw it works!

how's the GPS on this puppy?
[Vibrant Android Development] beren28:
Not bad. Slightly better than stock for me. I can usually get about 12 locks, 10 meter accuracy.

First lock takes FOREVER though. I had to leave gps test running for a good long while, but once i got a lock, it worked perfectly thereafter. So, jsut let it run until you gt first lock, then you are golden.

u think he was serious???

the gps isnt working and hasnt worked since day 1 of cm7 for vibrant

thats whts so funny

this basically says it all if we dont have a gb leak we cant fix wht we dont have

All releases are planned to be free of all bugs. Reality forces us to accept what we can do and our hands are tied on things that we don't have code for, nor documentation for and so no, it will not be free of all bugs/limitations. If the code is stable, if the release is usable as a daily driver for most people, it will get the "stable" designation. We will continue to fix bugs that we can fix.
[Vibrant Android Development] hitman818:
Hey atinm,

I dont know if it will be helpful, but there is a rom in rootzwiki thats based on cm7 and it doesnt have the mute/unmute issue. Its called biffmod.
[Vibrant Android Development] Reyland:
You can activate and deactivate speaker phone instead of mute/unmute!that's what I'm doing
[Vibrant Android Development] atinm:
Link to the source code for it?
[Vibrant Android Development] hitman818:
You can trying to pm him in rootzwiki. He said he had no experiences with the mute/unmite problem.
[Vibrant Android Development] atinm:
Don't see anything related to CM7 on the site, but I didn't look too hard - it seems to have a lot of stuff (if I'm looking in the right place).
[Vibrant Android Development] }{Alienz}{:
What do you people use for overclocking? Seems the ONLY kernel that is stable for CM7 is Glitch and that hasn't been updated since the 17th. It works but....could be better.

Why no love for overclocking. Every other kernel has lots of it.

PS: This is not towards the CM7 team. I know OC will never be supported. This is towards the community.
[Vibrant Android Development] Poser:
I know this OT, sorry Atinm

But, I haven't had problems with Neo in the past.

SOMEONE MAKE A ****ING THREAD TITLED "GPS ON CM7 DOES NOT WORK"

Every other post in this thread is "does gps work?"
[Vibrant Android Development] adyscorpius:
http://rootzwiki.com/showthread.php?999-(ROM)-Biffmod-Vibrant-v1-2.3.4-AOSP-(6-3-2011)&p=17865

That's the ROM... And its AOSP stuff, based on Nexus S, so he uses the CM7 kernel... Downloading and will confirm if the phone mute/unmute issue exists...

EDIT: No change... It still has the mute/unmute issue...
[Vibrant Android Development] adyscorpius:
The install file is almost a duplicate of the CM7 zip file... I wonder if its anything much different...
[Vibrant Android Development] Kaik541:
downloaded, browsed through the zip, seems to be CM7 with ADW replaced with a themed Launcher2.apk and a few other themed apps... so it's exactly the same as that weird "Tron" version and SuperVibe...

I'm too lazy to check the md5's, but I'm willing to bet it's actually just a winzip theme and no changes to source code. this can be seen simply in the build.prop file too

ro.build.version.incremental=eng.buildbot.20110630.053416

it's a buildbot nightly (or possibly RC1). so it seems to be CM7 for vibrant with CMParts removed, google apps added, AppWidgetPicker added (lol, why? CM has this feature enabled natively), and a different bootanimation.

*sigh* if there's one thing I don't get about the vibrant community of "developers", it's the blatant re-releasing of others' work with a different theme when the theme engine was created specifically to prevent the need of all these photoshop ROM's (this is not a comment on vibrant users as a whole, just those who would like to consider themselves developers in some sense of the word). if you think the theme engine isn't up to snuff because it can't theme the lock screen or the reboot menu, then if you're a developer worth your snuff, fix it. it's all open source and modifiable through a community driven project.

re-releasing others' work is not community, it's exploitation. it's the same reason we frown upon MIUI.
[Vibrant Android Development] adyscorpius:
Exactly... Wasted effort... What do they really want to show, I don't understand...

Thanks Kaik and Atin for the real development work...
[Vibrant Android Development] Kaik541:
I've said it before, but I always feel it's necessary to clarify this. I'm not a developer, all the thanks go to codeworkx, coolya, atinm, unhelpful, and guiper... without them, none of us would be able to have the enjoyment that CM7 brings to our phones. they might consider me a member of the team, but I'm not much more than a dedicated "goto" search function :P

WAIT What's wrong with miui?
[Vibrant Android Development] ironlood:
Miui is just themed cm7 ... they take all of ccyanogen work and put there name on it
[Vibrant Android Development] adyscorpius:
MIUI is more of good quality theming and app development than ROM development.. CM7 on the other hand is ROM development.

Like, MiUI cannot work on a phone unless CM7 works on your phone...
[Vibrant Android Development] apollo15rover:
I'd have to disagree.. I used MIUI for a bit and came back to the standard CM7. They don't copy and rebrand anything - MIUI is a sophisticated user interface entirely unique to itself and how it operates - it just rests on the CM7 platform as it or others could on any other Gingerbread or Froyo ROM.

It's an excellent innovation; I just happened to personally prefer the simplicity of CM7's Gingerbread.
[Vibrant Android Development] TLX317:
Even atinm said it was just taking cm7 code and theme it without giving any credit to the CM7 devs.

#43 seems to be running along nicely with no issues.

Noticed the color and gamma did change dramatically for the night mode render widget, but the team was decent enough to keep the old version renamed as "Red"...which is the one I am continuing to use.
[Vibrant Android Development] jimmynguyen91:
From 36 to 42, battery life is amazing! 13 hours and I'm at 55%. I hope 43 is just as good.
[Vibrant Android Development] atinm:
Mostly that it is closed - CM is all about open source, and MIUI exploits the community developer support to do MIUI. MIUI for a phone always seems to start with CM7, then they add their themes and themed apps, replace the kernel bootsplash to no longer say CyanogenMod and nowhere does the thing give credit to CM. They're a venture funded company exploiting community developer support and non-developers don't quite understand because it looks nice. Without us, they'd not be doing anything because they don't seem to be actual developers at all beyond knowing how to theme things.
[Vibrant Android Development] VeryCoolAlan:
Well said!
[Vibrant Android Development] notverycreative:
43 seems to be a battery life tank! Loving it!
[Vibrant Android Development] jzero88:
WOW, I am glad I never tried MIUI. I can't believe that is how MIUI exists. That is a shame and I hope their servers BURN!~
[Vibrant Android Development] adyscorpius:
Ok, keeping all the facts aside, if MIUI serves the purpose of some people on their phones, and they're happy, its in a way CM7's good only... Because, in reality, they're using CM7... So as a motivation, CyanogenMod should be happy that their ROM is used as a base... Unless either CM7 or MIUI start charging for or selling their ROMs, I see no reason why MIUI should stop what they're doing...

However, its totally wrong on their part to not credit CM for the base they use... It should be in caps across their board/website and the ROM...

[Vibrant Android Development] 12paq:
I ran a logcat and found the Google+ app is looking for location services and GPS when searching and uploading pictures. On the Vibrant CM7 parts of GPS sevices code are disabled and the app forcecloses when uploading photos.

Same thing on my Nook Color running CM7, the Nook does not have GPS and certain location sevices are not enabled. Some are tho, like wifi locations, but I have wifi location service turned off on both devices and have not toyed around with it much. However things run smooth when I tether a Bluetooth GPS to the Nook and the app finds and uploads photos.

Kind of a #fail for Google. Maps works with limited location sevices running, but their new social media app fails.

Either way its not CM7 problem ASFAIK, its Google's issue with their app.

[Vibrant Android Development] atinm:
They're not doing anything illegal, or even against the license that covers Android but is an insult to the developers of CM7 because they aren't building on CM7 to improve CM, they're building on CM to build MIUI, which they keep closed. So they get the benefits of our work, without giving back to us, and therefore the community of developers who facilitated their existence. CM builds on Google AOSP, and we keep it as open as AOSP does, that's the whole point.

What MIUI is doing goes against the spirit of Android, but not the letter and they're no better than leeches as far as developers at CM are concerned (and leeches is very mild compared to what we really think of them). We are in no way happy about their existence, we try to ignore them as much as possible except when they are mentioned on CM threads. We would really rather all mention of MIUI was kept to MIUI threads until they go open source, which they will not, obviously.
