Hi Guys!

Help me please!

I have just faced a really serious issue... I can not connect my phone to Car Audio via Bluetooth... Its says its paired but not connected... Every other phone can be paired without any problem, and I even managed to do it with my desire with another rom...

Could you help me please?

Thank in advance!

Hi guys,

I just tried to update from CM 7.0.3 to CM 7.10 but it was a disaster. The CM7.1 zip file that I downloaded was corrupted apparently, so after I booted to recovery, wiped cache, wiped dalvik, and then tried to flash the zip file, it showed me an error and aborted. After which, I go into a boot loop and can't boot up. I tried booting into recovery by holding down the volume down and power button and it works, but I'm not able to use the volume up/down keys to scroll through the list. Only the power button seems to work. Am I screwed?

Edit: I managed to get to CWM recovery via an adb reboot recovery command, and restore to my CM 7.0.3 NANDROID backup. It boots up correctly. I then rebooted to CWM recovery wiped cache/dalvik, and tried to apply the update again, this time checking the md5sum to make sure it's not corrupted. The update was applied successfully. I also applied the Darktremor A2SD zip again successfully. However, upon booting up, again, I get a boot loop. Logcat keeps telling me that device has run out of space, with messages like these:

E/dalvikvm( 792): opt header write failed: No space left on device

I did an adb shell and a df, and found out that my /data partition is 100% used up. Why is that so, and how can I reduce the usage?

Thanks.
[Desire Android Development] jsel:
Theres no point installing Cm7.1 since 7.2-RC1 is extremely stable.
[Desire Android Development] goister:
I would think 7.2 would have the same problems?

Edit: I tried to clear up some space by uninstalling apps and getting space up to over 50MB, but after I applied the update and rebooted, the usage went up to 100% again.
[Desire Android Development] rdmack:
Tried a full-wipe install? Sounds like it's not set up the sd-ext for dalvik etc so is running out of room when it's rebuilt
[Desire Android Development] goister:
I'm trying to avoid a full wipe-install as it's my wife's phone and the downtime won't be welcome...
[Desire Android Development] jsel:
During the boot check from adb shell with "du -sh /data/*" what is eating your storage space.
[Desire Android Development] jsel:
And what hboot are you on?
[Desire Android Development] Heisenberg:
Hi guys.

Forgive me, this question has been asked before, I've tried searching for days but can't find a solution. Here's the breakdown:

I can't get mms to send at all anymore. Details are:

Pvt3

0.93.0001

S-on

Latest radio

CM7.1 stable version

It used to send mms fine. Then it gradually declined. First the signal bars would turn white during a send attempt. Then signal would disconnect and reconnect before completing the process. At this stage it was still sending mms. Now that doesn't happen at all, and maybe one in thirty send attempts will work. No other data connections have been affected. Web is fine. Maps is fine. The only component of my data that won't work is sending mms (it still receives mms ok). Apps like viber and whatsapp have no problem sending image/audio/video but stock message app and gosms don't work. Its driving me insane, I've looked everywhere but can't find a fix.

Does anybody know of a way to fox this please? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I love cyanogenmod, this is the only thing about my handset that doesn't work. Its driving me insane guys!!

I have a strange problem, skype doesnt want to wign in. After inputting user and pass, it shows permanently "signing in". I tried unistalling, wiping data/cache - didnt help. Any ideas?
[Desire Android Development] Meaple:
Have you tried wiping dalvik cache and the data for Skype?
[Desire Android Development] simaka:
Yes, i tried it, but it didn't help :/ any other ideas? Google didnt help...
[Desire Android Development] Meaple:
No idea. All I can think of is that I take it you're using a custom rom and some code in the rom is buggering it all up. It could be the application being buggy but I can't think of anything else that might be able to fix it.

It seems like one of those weird things that doesn't happen often.
[Desire Android Development] Kujo82:
Hi,

I have a problem and I don't know if it is a rom issue or what else...

When I am connected to my home WiFi I do not receive notification (I notice that with whatsapp and facebook, I can't tell right now if G+, Gmail and others google apps has the same problem, need to do some tests) if the phone is in standby. Or better say, with the screen off.

When I turn on the screen, all notifications come at once.

Wifi settings have sleep policy set to never.

So what else can cause this problem?

Thanks!

This is battery use:

Display 46%

Cell standby 29%

Phone Idle 26%

I come back to CM 7.0.3 and the batterry down 10% /hour :(.

Have any one like me ?

Question,

Anyone who has a APK or flashable zip file of the original HTC Keyboard. I'm not really able to get used to this stock keyboard of the 7.1 RC1.

I would like to install the original keyboard of HTC again, I think i'm more used to it.

Thanks in advance!
[Desire Android Development] Large Hadron:
I have a themed (darker) version of the HTC keyboard - link here.

I think you also need this file.
[Desire Android Development] Ultrazauberer:
Today I installed this great ROM and all is so totally fast. I just know Sense ROMs so it is a brand new fealing for me.

But something is slowing the fun: I can not download anything bigger than 5MB from the market. I googled and found that I have to symlink the donwload cache. For now it works but I wonder if it be already have to been fixed because the bug is known since 7.0.3?

So is there an "officially fix" out there? Thanks!
[Desire Android Development] czesiu:
Official fix is built in for months, it seems it just does not work for a small fraction of people :)

can i use radio 5.11.05.27 with cm 7.1? or do i shall i 5.17.05.08 radio? anyone reccomend which radio works best with cm 7.1?
[Desire Android Development] frankoid:
I have been using 5.11.05.27 with no problems.
[Desire Android Development] vickyboicancan:
been surfing around and searching the forums for USB OTG capability

I know it's been done for Desire HD and someone actually was doing this a while but not sure where that thread went

Does anyone know or can point me in the right direction or if this has alraedy been built into CM7 could you let me know how to "activate" it?
[Desire Android Development] vashishtuday:
Thats a lot of battery consumption in idle and standby mode

Check the back ground processes that are running , it is very much possible that something like Google maps is running in the background always

Force close it , do this for everytime you rebbot ur phone , battery life should increase
[Desire Android Development] Sleehond:
2 hours and 42 minutes after unplugging. Still 100% battery :D

See my signature which combination of ROM/Kernal and Radio.

This is how it should be in standby modus of the phone :)

P.S. running 2G instead of 3G and no syncs at background.
[Desire Android Development] Sleehond:
Thanks for your post. But i just want the original keyboard, not a themed one. But again thanks for your post.

Anyone who can help me with the real original HTC Keyboard :confused:

Thanks in advance!
[Desire Android Development] Large Hadron:
You could download a stock ROM and extract the apk from the zip?
[Desire Android Development] Sleehond:
Might try that, thanks ;)
[Desire Android Development] duongv3:
Thanks you :)

I try with some ROM.But the battery drain more and more. The problem occur after S-OFF and resize NAND. So, i think that is cause.

I will conme back to stock ROM. Hope it well :(
[Desire Android Development] Ultrazauberer:
Hmm, should I wipe everything and start to reinstall all? This should fix it, am I'm right?
[Desire Android Development] Z0l:
S-OFF has absolutely nothing to do with your battery life (think about it like repartitioning the hard drive in your laptop, can that cause battery drain?)

Do a full wipe and don't restore any apps (no Titanium and no Google) to see what happens.
[Desire Android Development] czesiu:
wipe should fix it but since you already did that manually I'm not sure if its worth it :)

If you feel you want to start over anyway I would wait for 7.1 final (and then a few days to be sure that it is really final :) )
[Desire Android Development] 19blacktiger77:
I tried to restart the Launcher, but some widget still does not work properly. I will try your advice, thank you!
[Desire Android Development] duryard:
Hi Guys.

Been having a few problems with this rom such as

Random crash

Random Reboot

GPS Intermittent

Is it just me?

Can I just re flash back to 7.0.3

Good GPS is important to me as I use Sst Nav quite a bit
[Desire Android Development] ajaneesh:
Admit ive not been using gps a lot but ive had the rom for about 5 days now and have seen absolutely no instability. Had you done a wipe as advised?

from XDA App on HTC Desire running CyanogenMod-7.1.0-RC1-Desire
[Desire Android Development] ajaneesh:
I actually gave gps a try. Seemed to work ok. Got a lock in about 2 mins. Maybe a little on the slower side but not too troubling.

from XDA App on HTC Desire running CyanogenMod-7.1.0-RC1-Desire
[Desire Android Development] Heisenberg:
I can't seem to get GPS working either.. I've tried many times and I think its only worked once
[Desire Android Development] duryard:
I have been using it since it was released and was well pleased but may have to roll back or change roms because of the GPS issues :(
[Desire Android Development] ajaneesh:
Hmmm.. one wierd behaviour i just noticed is that i am having to sign in to the twitter, linkedin, facebook apps every single time i open them... theyre all sitting in my a2sd ext partition.. is that the cause of the issue? lll try to uninstall and install and see if the problems go away.

I initially had trouble getting dta2sd to work. I had used the froyo apps2sd app to install these apps to the sdcard. Once i sorted out a2sd, i used apps2sd to move these apps back to phone and eventually uninstalled apps2sd. Can that cause issues?

from XDA App on HTC Desire running CyanogenMod-7.1.0-RC1-Desire
[Desire Android Development] Sleehond:
I see lots of people with GPS issue?

Here it is working :D

- Enable GPS on in settings

- Download in market the app "GPS Status"

- Go to the open air outside your building and just wait with the app GPS Status open.

I have now 8 fixxed sattelites. Maybe my combination of kernal and radio works. See my signature, you might give it a try!

:cool:
[Desire Android Development] Kujo82:
No one? Is this just my problem? :(
[Desire Android Development] Large Hadron:
I've been using the same kernel with _5.14.05.17, and have no problems with GPS at all (either with RC1 or recent nightlies).
[Desire Android Development] Tsjoklat:
Does anyone have problems when using "select text" in the browser in CM7.1 RC1? It gives me the cursor, but I can not move it with the track pad. I cant move the cursor to a word to begin the selection process. I think this is also broken in CM 7.0.3. Anyone know how to fix it?

EDIT: The problem with moving the cursor when selecting text seems to be only within the email clients such as Gmail and K-9. The default web browser seems to be ok.
[Desire Android Development] Jagdish84:
If you guys tryin to get a gps fix with Waze the problems with the app itself...

notice that if you (as suggested) get on GPS Status youll get a fix rather easily, also you can always download fasterfix off the market, helped me...
[Desire Android Development] salahzantout:
seems wonderful, but how much should i wait for the stable one ? and will it support arabic language as well ?? thanks alot
[Desire Android Development] hongy:
So I was wondering how exactly does the sd partition work. A couple of months ago I was running oxygen and I used Rom Manager to do a 512mb partition, and after that I used leedroid and did a 1gb ext3 partition. Now both times I was able to install 100+apps (according to titanium backup) no problem, would always have at least 30-50mb of free internal memory.

Now I am on my second desire, first one broke, same memory card, been formated, did everything exactly the same as before but now I am constantly seeing a memory full notice. This time around I used oxygen and then switched to cyanogen nightly build 133 and both roms tell me I am running low on internal storage. This is after moving all my games and majority of my apps into sd through move to sd option. Also anything that has been moved to sd will no longer show up on my widget list.

What am I do wrong? I've had to delete a lot of apps and this to me is a huge problem because I've missed important text messages because there was less then 500kb of internal storage.
[Desire Android Development] salahzantout:
@ hongy

i have had the same problem on my htc desire with CM v 7.0.3

ive always had my internal mem full

wut i did is that i installed a program named s2ext, it moves all apps to ur ext partition but ofcourse after doing some steps.. u have to check some options - int the app - and reflash the rom ( without wiping ) and after that ull have ur internal memory free of storage...

ie: after reflashing u wont lose any apps, and the app is only for CM7, u can search it in market
[Desire Android Development] Large Hadron:
Move to SD is not using the ext partition. The a2sd script that uses that comes with Oxygen, but you need an add-on if you want to move the dalvik cache (which Leedroid does by default).

CM does not come with an a2sd script, but that has to be added. Look at the first post of the CM7 stable thread.
[Desire Android Development] Heisenberg:
If you want to use a widget you must leave that app on internal storage, it wont work otherwise
[Desire Android Development] Z0l:
Anybody knows why the screen lock sounds (the clicfk that happens when you lock/unlock the phone, can be toggled in settings -> sounds) became so quiet? I can barely hear them. Also, setting every volume knob to the maximum doesn't help.
[Desire Android Development] duongv3:
i came back to stock ROM. But the battery still draining.

After google the Internet. I found the cause :D. I use "battery calibration" app and the battery is good now :).

CM 7.1 is so great :cool:
[Desire Android Development] ironjon:
I want to upgrade this ROM from CM 7.0.1 stable.

I suppose I don´t need to wipe.

I´m using S2E to move apps to EXT, It will works fine after upgrade?

Thanks and good job!!
[Desire Android Development] Jagdish84:
As long as you dont wipe nothin(except for dalvik and cache) S2E will keep on workin...
[Desire Android Development] Heisenberg:
I came from 7.0.3 and was using simple2ext, I didn't wipe anything at all, just flashed the new ROM and its working fine. Do keep in mind that without a wipe it will take a long time to boot the first time, it took about 40mins for me. Don't be tempted to pull the battery, just let it run its course and it'll be fine. Enjoy :)
[Desire Android Development] Jagdish84:
Can always run a logcat if you feel its takin too long and see if it loops...
[Desire Android Development] ironjon:
Thanks, I will try in a moment

making wipes (cache and Dalvik) runs fine and only 3 minutes to boot.

[Desire Android Development] c4p3fi3rr:
I have an issue with fonts. When using another font text strings too big to fit the space are truncated, and ugly squares with question marks inside are displayed instead of the expected suspension points. I had this issue since version 7.0.2. The font files used are not the cause of this, i tried them on different roms and work as expected. Can someone else confirm this bug? Or maybe someone knows a fix for this?
[Desire Android Development] keibeel:
I was a 7.0.3 user, was having some occasionally annoying stability issues and popped back to Sense 2.1/3.0 ROMs. After having some good times with Sense, I decided to return and give a try on the 7.1.0-RC1 today.

And, after a few hours of messing on RC1, I have to restore to Sense ROM again.

Different users are getting different issues on RC1. I think it's not as stable as other people say in here. I consider it not ready for daily use. :rolleyes:
[Desire Android Development] ironjon:
Not for me

I flashed this rom 3 days ago and no issue for me.
[Desire Android Development] Heisenberg:
Same here, I've been using it since it was released and it runs like clockwork
[Desire Android Development] drbobb:
Not likely to work with HTC keyboard, iirc it requires HTC'c framework and libs. Look around for a hacked (& enhanced) version, it's here on XDA somewhere.
[Desire Android Development] vedko:
I'm using 7.1 daily since it's been released, so I consider it ready for daily use. ;)
[Desire Android Development] Heisenberg:
Is anyone having problems with the camera?

ie. Having to adjust brightness settings after each pic taken?

Other than that it seems ok
[Desire Android Development] salahzantout:
ok so i installed from recovery without wiping to udate from v7.0.3, and it works fine until now

it has better performance and is faster, but nothing special in style...

waiting for stable release

thanks alot
[Desire Android Development] keibeel:
I'll try another full wipe flash again soon, just that I donno what went wrong.

Last time a-series-of-problems made me dropping it - phone hold up needing battery pull 5 minutes after restore of 7.0.3 nandroid backup, loosing of signal after rebooting of a full-wiped fresh flashing of RC1 after making some general settings (not APN), then flashing another radio and reboot and still no signal and also noticing that some settings made previously were not saved...

Just that whenever I flash a new ROM I need to get online ASAP I decided to restore the other working Sense ROM which works perfectly right after restore. That's not a good start but I'll try again and hope things go smoother next time. :o
[Desire Android Development] salahzantout:
Ok and maybe wireless isnt good as it was before, battery efficiency is better ! Makes sence i hope im mistaken
[Desire Android Development] Uqbar:
I've done a fresh install and find that after reboot GMail is not synced any more (Settings-->Account and Synchronization-->GMail account-->Gmail get's unselected).

Moreover, I don't understand why the MIUI radio needs the bluetooth in order to work. With Sense Radio there's no such a need ...

Anyway, it's quite stable and fast, ready for daily use.
[Desire Android Development] RealyPssd:
I'm currently on CM v7.1 with stock HBoot.

If I flash my HBoot to the CM7r2 version, can I just use a nandroid/clockwork backup to restore my phone? Or do I have to re-flash the ROM + Google Apps?

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] Twau:
Below is the instructions from the thread posted by Kali-:

Upgrade instruction:

1) Nandroid backup in recovery.

2) Verify the MD5SUM of the file you downloaded against the one in the table.

3) Flash HBOOT with your phone in fastboot mode (Back+POWER) -> 'fastboot flash hboot bravo_alphaspl-cm7r2.img'

4) 'fastboot reboot-bootloader'

5) 'fastboot erase cache'

6) Boot recovery, wipe everything, advanced restore system & data, install CM7 again (same version or a newer one).
[Desire Android Development] frankoid:
I had the same problem, but there's a setting that fixed it for me. I think it was called "Allow Brightness Decrease" and was in "CyanogenMod Settings" but I can't check at the moment because I haven't got CM7 on my phone (trying out the HTC Gingerbread update).
[Desire Android Development] RealyPssd:
Alright so I flashed to the CM7r2 Hboot.

Wiped everything, restored system and data, then re-flashed the CM 7.1 ROM.

I then restored all of my apps with Titanium Backup.

All is well, but for some reason none of my mp3s are showing up in the music app..

They are in the same folder they were before I changed the Hboot, and were working fine before.

Has any one else had this problem?
[Desire Android Development] Z0l:
Wait until they are picked up by the media scanner or enforce an update (Google update music library android)
[Desire Android Development] nqk:
My Desire is not turning screen off now. After reboot it works, but at some point it loses this feature and screen is on forever. Im gonna flash again but if new version is coming out soon, say 2.3.5, I'll wait.
[Desire Android Development] gery2123:
Hy!I use this rom five day and I don't have problem ! Works great,fast and stable for me !
[Desire Android Development] salahzantout:
sometimes lock screen takes time to show up, duno if its because of apps
[Desire Android Development] thkam:
I think it's ROM related as I have this lock screen lag issue too after I upgraded from CM6.0.3 to CM7.1-RC1.
[Desire Android Development] xybadog:
I have a problem where, since changing from v7.0.3 to v7.1.0 my mobile data won't work. I thought maybe it was an app that was causing the problem so I went through the painstaking job of deleting each app individually then testing mobile data but it didn't work even after removing all user apps.

I've reflashed v7.0.3 and mobile data works again. I've checked all settings and they're exactly the same in both versions so it can only be the ROM.

Message to devs - are you aware of this issue? Is there a fix/workaround?

Apart from this issue I find v7.1 more stable than v7.0.3
[Desire Android Development] andQlimax:
Try a fresh install of the latest nightly + 20110613 Universal gapps, everything is working fine..
[Desire Android Development] kdjohnson78:
I have been using cyanogenmod for a while now. I love the performance and the ability to configure everything as much as I can. I do have one problem tho. My "Canadian Tire" app does not function properly under cyanogenmod. It does function to the point where the store locator works as does the barcode scanner portion, but the menu does not show up and I can not browse the inventory or search for products.

If anyone has any ideas or things I could try, I'd appreciate it.

keep up the good work on the ROM.
[Desire Android Development] thkam:
Hi, is there a way to improve the camera quality (dim even on outdoor shots, flickering under fluorescent light, etc)? I notice that HTC stock camera gives much better shots. Is this camera app or ROM related issue? Any camera apps that can product better shots.

flickering

daylight

HTC stock ROM, outdoor
[Desire Android Development] gbil:
I use camera360 app which for some reason takes much better pictures than the stock camera app in CM7.

The reason for lower quality photos is the proprietary drivers used by HTC in their ROMS.
