Create a more detailed FAQ section on first or second post. The glacier forum also has a separate cm7 q&a thread.

Unfortunately this is just the nature of cm. This is where all the noobs start.

Is kang 7.10 worth flashing tonight or could there be a nightly release soon. Also since the modem is on a different partition could this mess with rom manager installing future nightlies?
[Vibrant Android Development] ginzberg:
http://twitter.com/#!/ChrisSoyars/status/75294198991036416

This tweet suggests we have a few more days yet to go before we begin to see nightly builds. The 7.1 kang does seem to be a very polished build, but it's up to what you feel comfortable with.

Do you know where I can find compatible modems? Kb1 gives outstanding battery life vs ka7
[Vibrant Android Development] hitman818:
Yeah I also need a new modem. Ka7 doesnt work well with my phone. Kb5 is also a great choice for battery.
[Vibrant Android Development] Moped_Ryder:
Scrizz found out today his CWM modems wont work as of the kang release.. If you talk sweet to him he may update them for us :D
[Vibrant Android Development] justanothercrowd:
Just inject whatever modem you want into the .zip package and the KANG ROM will flash it to the correct partition.

I just replaced existing modem.bin to one i extracted from KB5 using root explorer and reboot and it seems working fine?? in setting it says KB5 and i'm getting way better signal..

For those of you having issues with the FFC not working, I know there have been at least two of us. Place the libcamera.so file at the ROOT OF YOUR SD CARD, I did BOTH SD's to be on the safe side. Then go into Terminal Emulator on device and type the following code and your ffc will work again, or at least it did on mine.

su
mount -o rw,remount /system
cp /sdcard/libcamera.so /system/lib/
reboot
[Vibrant Android Development] Jasonhunterx:

I have problem with voice even i have update 8 installed.

Most of times the other side did not hear me as well, voice disapears and sometimes they hear me as robotic voice
[Vibrant Android Development] Moped_Ryder:
You have searched the thread about the voice issue correct? So you know you have to hit mute then unmute for them to hear you?

The buildbots are turned off - After #11 came the KANG build. That is what Im running - still mute/unmute issue but very smooth otherwise.

[Vibrant Android Development] german103:
No one has encountered this? :confused:
[Vibrant Android Development] romitkin:
I have never had such problem before. If I understand correctly you are not talking about the screen timeout but it turns off while actually using the phone?
[Vibrant Android Development] german103:
Actually it's the screen timeout, the phone goes to sleep if i don't touch the screen, even if i'm in the middle of a race.
[Vibrant Android Development] romitkin:
So go to settings - Display - Screen timeout and change it.
[Vibrant Android Development] german103:
guess it's the only workaround then. Well I'm going back to 2.2 anyway, the battery drain is too high.
[Vibrant Android Development] romitkin:
If I remember right, the phone always turns off the screen according to the screen timeout. It doesn't stay on even if you are in a game or watching a movie. I am talking about 2.2 ROMs too.

At least it was the same in Bionix 1.3.1 I was using before switching to CM7.
[Vibrant Android Development] Soldi3rxx:
does anyone know how to remove the led notification for text messages? What are you guys typically getting for battery life?
[Vibrant Android Development] joe98200:
Nope. Just watched a 2:23 long video to try out. Screen timeout is set to 30 seconds too.
[Vibrant Android Development] german103:

[Vibrant Android Development] Mannymal:
Other than GPS, what else is not working now or is buggy?
[Vibrant Android Development] mulcahyd:
Hey guys... how stable is this latest release and could it be used as a daily driver.?
[Vibrant Android Development] apollo15rover:
Not much - the biggy for me was the external SD card, but that's long resolved. While GPS doesn't work, Maps still does and can still put you pretty close to where you are - which is good enough for me right now.

Camera operation is much smoother now (although when it was a bit rougher, I was still getting good photos)

So this is really my daily driver.

Tried MIUI for a while. More bugs and I got tired of the "candy" as good as it was - I like the simplicity of CM7.
[Vibrant Android Development] Joy2DaWurld:
I believe I'm on the most recent KANG update. It's weird but I really don't have the issue of mute/unmute ALL the time. It occasionally pops up but I almost never have to do it anymore. Obviously I'm not complaining but just putting it out there and wondering if anyone else is experiencing the same thing.

Also just putting my 2 cents up, I feel that the CM team as a whole hates putting out "results" that aren't necessarily RESULTs...in that if their product isn't working as it should, they're not proud of the output as a whole. Which I figure leads into the delays and slower development of this phone on CM7. It took a fairly long time to get this phone "officially" on CyanongenMod because there have been hardware issues since day 1, even with Eclair/Froyo that have held back the full capabilities of the phone. It's mainly just GPS but of course that can't be solved on Gingerbread until an official release of the source. On top of that the FFC, or therein lack of on SOME phones, has been iffy with "banding" on the older i9000 camera sets and incompatibility in general regarding many phones that don't have an FFC altogether.

A big goal of CM is to make OUR lives as simple as possible, but it's near impossible for them to make that happen when there are so many variables when regarding the Vibrant.

I'd like to take the time simply to let the devs know we really appreciate the hard work they put into letting us get the best out of our phones. And of course jumping thru many hurdles to make that happen, Thank You.

+1 to that joytodaworld
[Vibrant Android Development] ginzberg:
This is not yet scientific, so please, if your experience differs, please do not hesitate to speak up.

I am using the CM7.1 kang without modification (read: KA7 baseband). I use SystemPanel to track individual process CPU utilization, and have found that there is a fairly significant jump in the "System" process as well as the "Status Bar" process when I enable battery percentage in status bar tweaks. This is difficult to track, as the results really do not become evident until measured for a relatively long period of time (2hr minimum).

This setting is found here: Settings > CyanogenMod settings > Interface > Status Bar Tweaks > Battery percentage

The irony, of course, is that if you are extremely sensitive to your battery use, you likely would be interested in that status bar tweak, and may potentially be putting an increased load on the CPU.
[Vibrant Android Development] movieaddict:
I use that battery tweak because I like seeing numbers. It hasnt changed my battery at all and I've been running cm7 since nightlie #y or 4
[Vibrant Android Development] geoffcorey:
If you want a battery percent without it hiving up battery, try "battery indicator" from the market. It gives you temperature, voltage, time off charger, time on charger, and is in the status bar, and doesn't use any extra CPU.

Which version did you flash? If you flashed Nightly Build #11 then this is a known problem and flash Build 6, 8 or CM7.1 instead and you should fine.

1. Get into download mode (you did make sure you could get into download mode before you flashed CM7, yes?).

ideed

demostrable.. spend more time by clicking the toggle data on off..

eh.. the best (for me that flash a couple of time per week) is the kernel/modem inside the mytical nero v5.. never had better battery life (still having ALWAYS 3g on and twitter check every 2 hours.. always sync gmail etc..)

the real problem is not ONLY the modem on or off.. but I saw (with system panel) that not all but almost roms never go into deep real sleep when you press the power button..

so the nero v5 was the only one that.. still having 3g on.. gmail sync.. etc etcblablabla.. starting late in the evening at 100% I found it at morning at 75.. 80% !!

and is not only a problem of balancing of performances in modem firmware.. is a ability to real sleep..

and system panel teach about it.. you see exactly the entry of the deamon that has the contorl of the suspend process..

yes.. almost rom has a little time of it.. little slice of timeprocess.. instead of a real long time effective!! why?????

Why don't we just start using the report button? I think ample warnings have been given about asking repetitive questions, and while I don't agree with getting all pissy about it and further cluttering up the thread by posting smartass comments... the people who refuse to use the search button or read need to be controlled for everyones benefit, including their own.

That said, I think we are just as guilty of carrying topics off course by simply telling people to "use the search button" or "learn how to read". To be perfectly honest, it would be less time consuming to 1) ignore the post, or 2) just answer the question.

So anywhos, there you go those were my 2 cents, let's use the report button and I'm sure once the mods see a post reported a gagizillion times they'll come up with some way of handling the user.

No, Samsung roms made it /mnt/sdcard/external. The reason why it's /mnt/emmc in CM7 is because if it wasn't, it wouldn't get scanned nor pickup new media.

It's not broken, its just not what people are accustomed to.
