Not everyone has bad battery problems with this! i sure dont and If u had read the CM7 threads u would see that This is as stable as its gonna get without further gingerbread source leak. The mute/unmute problem has been fixed from i have read, But there is no gps But its sure stable enough for most people as a daily driver.
[Vibrant General] crxforya:
I have the same problem w/ CM7 as I do with the rest of the non-stock roms. I lost data within 24 hrs of flashing. There seems to be an issue with some phones and maintaining data after rooting :( go figure.
[Vibrant General] mr.johnsexydavis911:
My cm7 is just fine. I don't use GPS do that doesn't bother me. I get about 7 hours of medium-heavy usage, which is just fine for me. Cm7 shows how much of a beast our device is. I have no Oc and I get 2011 on quadrant. When I did overclock to 1.6 I got 2908. I get no problems though.
[Vibrant General] alyoder:
Not everyone has battery problems because not everyone has ever gotten "good" battery life.

For those of us who have gotten battery life in the I-only-need-to-charge-ever-two-days range, the battery life in CM7 (most recent I've used is #36) is horrendous.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aiki123:
Ok so last month I am going on a holiday but it is a 4 hour drive now yesterday I tried the GPS for an half hour and as you all now it got extremely hot.

The question is would you risk it to drive 4 hours at that heat?

Thnx in advance
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyz1988:
Did you have it plugged in at a charger? If so, that would be the cause it will get very hot.

Is it possible that you can aim the air-conditioning on your phone for extra cooling?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
D you not know where you are going for the whole four hours ??

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aiki123:
Well called to Samsung Service Center to tell them my problem and they said this is absolutely not normal and is probably an fault with the 'cooling' system or something the advised me to bring it back to the store to get it repaired...

Lennyz: Yeah I could do that but I never had to do that with my previous Galaxy S I went to the store today to show them and ran the stabilitytest program and got to 50° in 10 minutes don't think thats normal :/ they send it to samsung to repair it will take 3 weeks hopefully get a new one that doesn't have this problem

JJE: well if I would know where I am going I wouldn't have to use a GPS right? I am one of the GPS generation :) can't go anywhere without my GPS
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Any where no straight road.

So far so good with this ROM. Updated this morning and getting things all setup since I was coming from another ROM. Will report back once it gets broken in and starts to be used normally.

the initial start screen with the green android guy wasn't working for me.

the four corner trick constists of touching each corner of the screen (TL,TR,BR,BL)

it will then let you into the ROM without having to go through the initial google set up

[Hero CDMA Android Development] littlewhiteowl:
I just want to make sure I know what to do here. My Hero now has aospCMod-HC-20110326 on it. It has some issues. Do I fall into the streamlined category to get this mod where I just do a Nandroid backup and flash? And can I just flash the updated version update-cm-7.1.0-RC1-Heroc?

I am so ready to get updated! Thanks so much for all the work and sharing....
[Hero CDMA Android Development] littlewhiteowl:
Please, if someone would tell me, what is the order when you do this? Do you update the kernel before flashing the mod and gapps?

I also have kernel version 2.6.29.6.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] waqasr:
Best would be to make a back up before you do anything just incase if

you have issues you can get back to last working rom.

Thn you can flash CM7.1 but make sure to Wipe Data, Cache

& Wipe Dalvik Cache.

Best of luck!!!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] littlewhiteowl:
Thank you so much, waqasr. Will do! I am so thankful for all the information and help here. I tried to "thank" you, but I've already thanked five times tonight. :) I also read the entire kernel 35 thread. I'll look into that again later. I'm going to dive in to this CM7.1 update tomorrow after a good night's sleep.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] waqasr:
I would suggest you stick with that kernel because even I had

to revert back after having issues with .35 kernel.

If you decide to install CM7.1 you don't have to flash any kernel

just stick with what it comes with. Only Flash Gapps after flashing

CM7.1 ROM. I would recommend CM7.1 if you are having issues with

other roms since in my experince it was the most trouble free rom I tested

with everything working for me.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] littlewhiteowl:
Here I Go...

After reading the .35 kernel thread last night that's what I came to...just stay put till further development. I read your account of what happened with you...and others' accounts too.

Thanks so much for your help. I'm going to flash CM7.1 and gapps now and will report.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] waqasr:

flashed 163 and I love it. can I flash tiamat or sz kernel with this or is that not an option? I use cm 7 for my evo too and have used both tiamat and sz kernels with great success as nice compliment to the cm 7. Is SBC possible on the Hero?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] waqasr:
If I am not mistaken you can flash any kernel but the cooked in kernel

in most cases is the best option since its extensively tested.

You may give it a shot and let us know your experince, if it works

out for you thn I will also give it a shot.

Just make sure you dont flash a GSM kernel, I heard some where that

can mess up things.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dpeeps74:
Evo <> Hero. I would recommend using evo stuff on evo and hero stuff on hero. There is nothing similar in those 2 phones except the battery and the HTC stamp.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] seewhyphotos:
I have been homebound due to medical issues for a few months now and just recently left the house. When i do, my phone reboots every time. I'm assuming this has to do with the gps issues.

I'm running the CM7.1.

From my Galaxy to your eyes
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kyouko:
I've had GPS reboot issues and problems with the GPS causing the phone to lock up on CM7 for a while now.

I actually made the switch back to AOSP 2.2; GPS is still just "OK" in terms of how long it takes.to lock on, but its much more stable imo. Hasn't rebooted on me yet..plus the rom overall seems much smoother & lwps work for me as well...not sure why I didn't switch back sooner lol.

If GPS is still an issue with that, you can always try LiquidSense its a sense rom obviously :p, so kinda clunky, but probably the one of the best sense roms you can run that's available to us.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
I would try a nightly build, more recent ones have battery issues so go for something before 148.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] seewhyphotos:
I may give the nightlies a try. The GPS Reboot is the only issue I've experienced with 7.1

[Hero CDMA Android Development] jeff5831:
Loaded this up last week and loving it so far, super smooth. My question is, I saw in another thread someone advise to go through a rom and delete all the extra ringtones you don't use to free up extra space. I was curious if I could go about doing this by just extracting the zip, deleting everything I didn't need, zipping it back up and then flashing the trimmed up version? I was thinking about cutting out a couple extra apps I don't need. Does this sound kosher or should I go about it another way?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] NewShockerGuy:
Just tried installing this on my wife's phone... doesn't appear to work for some reason. v6.1.0 works fine. When I install 7 from a factory wipe/update.. it sits at the HTC screen for 20 minutes.... And that's it. I timed it and did it mulitple times and still the same issue.

sprint said the CM is blocking it when they try to send signal for it to update

any .apk or anything that will help thanks=]

You need to flash to a Sense based rom to do this.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] andrewc513:
Strange experience. My co-worker has a Hero, still running CMod6, so I figured it's time to upgrade her. So I wiped her data/cache/dalvik and installed. 7.1 RC1 never made it past the HTC splash, even after another wipe/reinstall.

7.0.3 stable CM7 went on without a hitch and added considerable pep to the phone. Guess she'll have to wait for 7.1 stable for me to try again.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Bierce22:

When I first flash it lagged a little but after the battery died and I gave it a full charge its been really smooth. I haven't tested everything (GPS camera etc) as yet so I comment on that much.

Using ondemand 352/691 with pretty much stock juice defender settings, my battery is currently at 12% with it being 1 day 12 hours and 50 minutes since its last full charge. This was while using it pretty normally: several calls, many texts, a good bit of browsing,etc etc.

I'm not entirely sure of the performance or battery differences between ondemand and interactive or any of the others. I just know ondemand provides well enough in both areas, and if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

This ROM is really getting smoother and smoother. If they can just manage to figure out to make the notification drawer framerate smooth, it'll finally become my stable. But other than that little OCD issue I have, this ROM is damn near perfect.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] waqasr:
I have a question!!

In the change log I see

Vision/Glacier/Ace/Speedy/Vivo: 2.6.35 kernel and updated userspace

Buzz: 2.6.35 kernel - Arne Coucheron

I flashed this rom but I still see Kernel Version 2.6.29.6 in my phone.

What version comes default with it?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LiquidSolstice:
Because our phone isn't the "Vision", the "Glacier", the "Ace", the "Speedy", or the Vivo. It's not even the "Hero".

It's the Heroc. The .35 kernel isn't in our CM build yet. For what reasons, I'm not sure yet, I don't really follow its progress.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] waqasr:
Oh okay, I gotch you. I am new to all this so that's why still learning the

basics. Is it possible to flash .35 kernel on this rom or not any idea?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] LiquidSolstice:
Why yes, since you asked kindly, there is, good sir. :P

Take that kernel with a grain of salt, it's being actively developed, although it's said to grant huge performance boosts among other things.

the one with noheadset 11th jun or 4th Jun one?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jcj77d:
ive read & heard that anything that watches/manages the battery, puts stress & or drains the battery quicker, like battery widgets, etc.

b/c these apps/widgets are constantly pulling info from the phone to read the battery, thus using more battery, so why not use the built in battery manager in the rom, & android

[Hero CDMA Android Development] waqasr:
I was also having a lot of issues when I used ADW.

Now I am using Launcher Pro with out any problems at all.

What I would recommend is before you do anything else.

1. Try Fix permissions from RomManager thn reboot

If that dont fix the crashes

2. Try to use the default launcher which comes with GB (probably best solution)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=933517

(Very fast, Smooth and most stable)

3. Try free Launcher pro from market.

Good Luck!!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jamega2f:
Thanks, I don't like using the extra launcher, I rather use what comes with the Rom, u feel things run smoothly that way in my opinion but I will definitely try the first two. Hoping for great results
