Also. Is it just me or does the battery not charge to above 4200mv. On other roms it would charge to 4250+mv. I've done everything from wiping battery stats to flashing to stock and charging all the way before flashing cm7. Its not a big deal. The only real effect I am seeing is it drops from 100% to 98% in just a minute. But that's just two percent. Just wanna know if I did something wrong or if its a side effect of the port

Either way I'm still very happy with the work and think its amazing that this has been done:)

Tap-a-Talked from my CM7 Mesmerize.
[Samsung Mesmerize] foxfire450:
Yep, I noticed that. It'll charge from 98% and jump to 100%, too. 4190mV is as high as mine will go. As an observation, I just unplugged it from full and it dropped down to 4141mV @ 100%. I don't know how that compares to other ROM's or kernels, though, since I haven't been keeping track of that.

I'm hoping battery life will improve with time and updates; otherwise, it's back to H57. I'd much rather keep CM7, though. :)

Thanks to everyone involved in working on CM7 for us!
[Samsung Mesmerize] scarmon25:
Even with this litte "hiccup" I have to say battery life is better with cm7.

Edit/Update. To elaborate. Running the newest OTB kernel with very little undervolting and overclocked to 1.2ghz. So far I am getting a full day out of my phone easily. That is with pretty moderate use too. The graph in battery stats show screen on at least 80% of the time. So I am deffinately pleased with this. To hell with mms. If that's the price of admission for this CM7. Then I'm cool with that :)

Edit: also one other thing I noticed. It will not let you charge the phone with it off. As soon as you plug in the USB cable it boots the phone. Again this isn't a big deal just thought I would mention it.

Tap-a-Talked from my CM7 Mesmerize.
[Samsung Mesmerize] foxfire450:
Initially battery life was worse for me, but it seems to have gotten better with a couple of chargings. With H57, I would get 40 - 50 hours on a charge (I keep the screen dim, and mobile data and sync off unless I need to use it). I'll give it another week or so to see if it just needs to level out.

Speaking of CM7 not letting the phone turn off, in case anyone else runs into this: my phone was at 40% battery when I decided to charge it with the phone off so it'd be ready to go in the morning. Since it just reboots when you plug it in, it came back up but said the phone was at 99% battery. It very slowly dropped down to 70-something %, then caught back up and charged all the way. It's working fine, now. Just thought I'd throw that out there so people don't think something's messed up and charging is draining their battery, lol.

I have this installed on the mesmerize and tried using the GPS and it just says searching for GPS, I waited for about 5 minutes and no change so I gave up, is GPS not working fully or does it just take a long time to locate the satellite when you flash a new rom?

Occasionally my GPS doesn't want to lock either... Download GPS status from the market (its free), you can reset the GPS chip and download GPS assistance data. It usually gets my stubborn GPS kicked into gear in seconds.
[Samsung Mesmerize] foxfire450:
Yes, GPS Status works well . . . most of the time. You can clear the A-GPS state under Menu -> Tools -> Manage A-GPS state and hit Reset to clear the cached GPS data.

Occasionally, this hasn't worked for me, but a reboot would usually clear up the problem if that didn't fix it.
[Samsung Mesmerize] bigjkcfan:
I went ahead and pulled the gps.conf out of a froyo rom and put it in my rom and I flashed the kernel that was linked and i downloaded that GPS program and now I get a lock in about 10 seconds. Thank you for all of the help!!
[Samsung Mesmerize] i4get75:
I don't think the gps.conf helped ya at all since the gps structure is different in GB. it's stored in a libgps.co file or something like that.

Mobile Network Settings

Under Mobile Network Settings, if I set my phone to anything other than "Home Only" my phone only will search for network. Will having phone set for "Home Only" prevent my phone from roaming on other networks?
[Samsung Mesmerize] knoxjon:
Have you done a *228?

You should be able to select "automatic" and at least have it get on your home network. If it won't let you go off of home, I'm sure you will be stuck on home.

Of course "home" means us cellular vs their partners. It doesn't mean you won't be able to pick up us cellular towers wherever they are.

edit: I guess that's less helpful since you're not on us cellular.
[Samsung Mesmerize] StuckinMemphis:
I had this same issue with the MIUI GB rom. It went a step further actually. After selecting Automatic for network Data signal would go to 1x. There was nothing I could do to get it back to 3g. I then tried *228 and got Verizon network programming. The only way out was to reflash a CSouth rom and do the ADW Data Debug network fix.
[Samsung Mesmerize] ocs111:
Thanks StuckinMemphis; what rom did you reflash? I am assuming you have to do that with odin. I haven't seen mention of ADW Data Debug network fix; I will google and read about it.
[Samsung Mesmerize] knoxjon:
Yeah, I had that happen a page or so ago.

ocs111 - make sure you are on the correct network. The easiest way to find out is to dial *228 and see what they say (and hang up if it's not cell south!).

But I'd guess if you are getting 3g there's no way for you not to be on the correct network.
[Samsung Mesmerize] StuckinMemphis:
OCS111 now I am no expert. I have been through this before though. So I will show you what dfgas showed me. First off this is for the Cellular South Showcase.

I did Odin to this rom: http://rootzwiki.com/showthread.php?1069-ODIN-Showcase-Stock-Showcase-files-for-Odin-2.2.1

Then I did the ADW DATA DEBUG fix. Dfgas provided a video which is great. It works. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=InN-Z340BO0

Now you will be back on stock Cellular South EE25 Froyo no root.

I used SuperOneClick to root again. You have to enable USB Debug for it to work. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=803682

Then I had to Odin CWM3 so I can go out and get into trouble again. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1046905

Good luck. That's what I did and it worked for me. Thanks again dfgas.
[Samsung Mesmerize] ocs111:
Thanks StuckinMemphis; I am downloading now and will give it a try. I will let you know the results. I called CS and asked them to send down a signal to reactivate my phone but that did not help anything.
[Samsung Mesmerize] Black6spdZ:
So are you saying that this ROM is a no go for CSouth Showcase users? What radio were you using, EB11 or EE25? Would this matter?
[Samsung Mesmerize] Black6spdZ:
SO this fixes the former un-repairable problem we used to have of losing data after flashing a non CS radio and back again?
[Samsung Mesmerize] scarmon25:
Kinda off the current discussion but has anyone else noticed the external speaker volume seems muted. I know there is a known issue with the in call volume but I didn't know if that would effect the external speaker or not. Its not aa biggie and the latest test build from JT has fixed the incall audio. Its just not ready for the mesmerize yet :)

Tap-a-Talked from my CM7 Mesmerize.
[Samsung Mesmerize] StuckinMemphis:
Yes and no. The DATA DEBUG menu is not available on the rom that I used MIUI Gingerbread. You have to go back to FROYO to be able to use that fix. Haven't been able to flash CM7 successfully but, I assume it's not available there either.
[Samsung Mesmerize] ocs111:
So you did not try and load GB CM7 again? Are you just running the stock 2.2?
[Samsung Mesmerize] StuckinMemphis:
Running Heinz57 at the moment. It's the best stable rom I have used for the Showcase so far. I really want to run Gingerbread either CM7 or MIUI. I guess we need a fix with the network issue before it will be usable.
[Samsung Mesmerize] StuckinMemphis:
I'm not sure. It seemed to work very well and fast. I haven't had time to experiment more. I guess if you leave the network setting on HOME ONLY maybe it will work fine. I just don't know what will happen when I leave the Cell South area.
[Samsung Mesmerize] ocs111:
That is what I was running as well. I was very pleased and sceptical about trying but the temptation got the best of me and I got sucked in. I cannot stand not to try the latest and greatest, lol.

Hi guys,

I just flashed my Inspire to the RCMix3D ROM. Is there a way to overclock the Inspire? I've seen a few apps on the market for it, like setcpu, but I'm not sure where a good place to start is. That and underclocking to help save battery life. Sorry if this is a repeat thread. Couldn't find any relevant to the ROM I have.

Thanks in advance!
[HTC Inspire 4G] dark_angelfighter17:
Imm on a similar ROM. RcMix Kingdom rom and I use CPU master free from the market. I underclock to: 245 and overclock anywhere from 1.2 to 1.7 usually with a conservative setting to save battery life. It works rele well.

*srry iff I typoed*
[HTC Inspire 4G] scorpiopantera:
Get setcpu from the Market, works great!
[HTC Inspire 4G] gmurphy0487:
Just be careful when overclocking. Don't overclock too high. It can cause issues and if you have set on boot checked, it can a real pain if you set it too high. I usually don't go any higher than 1200 mhz.
[HTC Inspire 4G] dark_angelfighter17:
coredroid is good

The newest version of Coredroid (v.8.1) allows for a 2ghz overclock! be careful tho, as running the processor that fast WILL make the phone very hot! and drain your battery. If for some reason tho you need the performance, its there.

I was trying to change my bootanimation and accidentally deleted the system stock bootanimation file on root explorer.

I think I deleted the one from system/bin and the one in system/media.

Now i have no bootup screen...it's just black.

I tried replacing both of them with the bootanimation.zip file i wanted to use and nothing has worked.

Sorry I'm new at this and have googled and read as much as i can. I successfully changed the bootanimation screen the first time but i wanted to change it again and accidentally deleted the original bootanimation folder, which i guess you needed.

I'm afraid to do a system recovery because I have a rooted phone and I'm using Boost with it. I don't know if that will effect it in a bad way.

Sorry for shouting, but I'm getting no answers.

Does everyone here also get an idle 4G icon after a short amount of time ?

What does it mean ?

I was under the impression that it's a phone design to conserve battery life, as explained here

http://www.deepeshpradhan.com/nexus-s4g-is-just-better-and-faster-and-its-is-google-phone

But, when mine does idle, it doesn't fall back to 3G, it just remains off, effectively turning this into a dumb unit. No connection.Nothing.

I'm looking for people to prove me wrong and to tell me that when they are idle on 4G, they receive notification INSTANTLY on apps like google talk.

I'm not talking 3 minutes delayed until 4G kicks back in again, I'm talking instant messaging , as it should be.

If I'm proved wrong, I must have a defective unit, but if this is software related, then somethings amiss ????

Because I don't believe you. I believe you must be getting a connection forced when you're having something polled. Or you get them when the icon goes back to green with bars.

Chec this for my evidence.

If this is handset related, I can live with it if it fixes itself when I swap it out. If it's software related, I guess I'm screwed.

thats because the evo leaves the connection on. this is the whole point of "idle", so everybody doesnt complain of battery on 4g. now we are faced with a different problem. the video is hard to argue with. lets bug sammy to come up with a solution. until then, those who are affected by this just go back to 3g?
