Love the rom but maybe it's coincidence with an outage but in the last feW days, i have Only 1x at home and outsid, only 1-2 bars of 3G. Usually it's a lot better. Should I mess with cyanogen mobile settings like roaming?
[Motorola Triumph] Genesis3:
Updated.

Wifi lockup is fixed, MMS is fixed, GPS is fixed.

Work continues. I now have a set of features I can use as a "daily" although there are still some stability issues - I've generated a couple of crashes recently but have yet to catch it with debugging plugged in (grrrrrr.)

It's coming right along - please read the top post!
[Motorola Triumph] kofman13:
To update we just wipe data and cache and flash? Or just flash on top of the 9/10 build
[Motorola Triumph] Genesis3:
It should be safe to flash over the existing loads to this point. The

next

load is expected to require a data and cache wipe - I may be able to avoid it, but I would not expect that.

If it crashes on boot then do a wipe on the cache, and if that's insufficient, wipe /data.

Man this is great news. Must be 100s watching this thread. Like a pack of wolfs.:p
[Motorola Triumph] HitchHiker:
I know that I am, sometimes even hourly. I just wish that I was able to actually contribute.
[Motorola Triumph] kofman13:
just installed your latest build. great work. but adw launcher is gone!
[Motorola Triumph] uhsarp:
Does this rom come with NAT modules enabled so that I can tether (not with barnacle but with quick settings or any other way)
[Motorola Triumph] Genesis3:
uSharp, the problem is not NAT - that's there. The issue with the Hotspot is that the manufacturer pulled the symbols that the hotspot needs to start from libra.ko (kernel module), there's no source, and the other copies I can find from other phones that use the same chipset will not load.

CM7 has native tethering. I have it turned off for this reason - not only does it fail to start it severely borks the wifi if you attempt it as it comes about halfway up before realizing it's screwed.

There may be no fix for this at all; I'm still looking into it, but it is not looking good. Barnacle does work but AP-style tethering may be impossible due to this limitation.
[Motorola Triumph] kofman13:
things i noticed about latest build:

adw launcher is missing ( maybe because i didnt do data wipe and just applied update, as you told me to do)

screen turns on about 1.5 seconds slower when pressing lock button after sleep.

wifi works great, doesn't lock up phone anymore.

about 2 out of ~12 calls i got, the accept/reject call screen froze and phone rebooted
[Motorola Triumph] ravensguildassasin:
seems nice installed but it does randomly reboot. wifi is not fully steady on my end. (could be a bad router though) other then that so far so good.
[Motorola Triumph] Genesis3:
ADW was removed and replaced with the default gingerbread launcher. ADW can be loaded from the market.
[Motorola Triumph] ravensguildassasin:
i am trying to track down why the reboots, but i can't seem to catch them when hooked to a usb cable. I.E. it does not reboot during that time for me. at this point I'm lost and leave it to the pros to figure out, as i am not a pro at this at all.
[Motorola Triumph] dburg84:
Try alogcat app in the market. No need for a usb cable to catch the ooopppies.

Grabbing the dmesg may help as well.

in shell either from computer or terminal emulator

dmesg > sdcard/dmesg.txt

kmsg as well.

adb shell
cat /proc/kmsg

If you can't get those try this after the reboot:

pull the file to your fat32 from the terminal

cp /data/dontpanic/* /sdcard
[Motorola Triumph] ravensguildassasin:
ok well this happened to me today. was in a call went to change volume phone restarted. tried again same third time worked fine and has since worked fine. but twice it did restart the phone. so there is that though a bit inconsistent.
[Motorola Triumph] ravensguildassasin:
and another one for you when playing music it will restart pandora, on phone media both restart the phone.
[Motorola Triumph] lghtwave:
wow. Since now MMS and GPS is working, I'm going to try it out.

Thank you for the great work!
[Motorola Triumph] davidfig:
Little help please, simple question

I seem to have the same problem. I did everything according to the instructions. My phone is rooted. I have tried on three separate occasions. All with the same results, hung at the Motorola M. But on the bright side. I have gotten very good at reinstalling my backup.

Once CM7 is installed do you 1) reboot, 2) power down, or 3) pull battery?
[Motorola Triumph] davidfig:
Only thing I did different was wipe dalvik cache

Ok I have solved my own problem.

1. Root device

2. Install CWM

3. Boot CWM (power off, hold all power/up/down volume)

3. Clear cache/data/dalvik cache (dalvik in sub menu)

4. install zip

5. remove battery

6. power on.

Edit: Now I have to find gmail. Where did I put those gapps? I got it hear somewhere. Oh wait! Its in the market now. Wow!
[Motorola Triumph] davidfig:
Used 9/21 version for a few days

Ok so I finally got it on my phone (erase dalvik cache in advanced menu). It seems to work pretty good so far.

Pros:

1. I learned about Car Home. Love it for traveling. Can't install on Triumph Stock though.

2. Seems to be stable except for calls.

Cons:

1. After dialing someone I put the phone to my face and the screen goes dark, then bright, then dark every second or so for about a minute.

2. During the call for a 15min period it dropped twice, although at first I thought it was my face touching silent I made sure the second time. So its definitely bad.

3. Still have more testing to do.
[Motorola Triumph] Genesis3:
9/25 update is up - primary change is bluetooth tethering and MSS clamping.
[Motorola Triumph] kofman13:
thanks! good work!

1. what is bluetooth tethering?

2. what is mms clamping?

3. do we have to do complete wipe for this one?

4. how do i know if my clockwork is cable of understanding ext4
[Motorola Triumph] Genesis3:
1. Bluetooth tethering is tethering over a Bluetooth connection. Pair your computer with the phone then look for the "Connect using" option - for Win7 it's on the top bar when you select the paired phone and calls itself "access point." Others call it "PAN" or "Personal area network." Any device that can make a Bluetooth network connection should be able to utilize this, provided it supports the correct profile to do so. This is NOT "dial up networking" over Bluetooth (like a modem); it is a native network connection.

2. MSS clamping stops the nonsense you used to have to do when attempting to use something like Barnacle where you had to set the MTU on the PC. The tethering app needs to know that it can use this - "Android Wifi Tether" does, some others may. I don't know if Barnacle does. MSS clamping requires both OS support and kernel support. My kernel has supported it since I started doing this (so "wifi tether" worked properly even from the first loads), but the OS support is new.

3. No, although it's never really safe to flash over a former version. I do it all the time but it always carries the risk of things going sideways. If they do then clear and try again.

4. If you're not using a RECENT Clockwork by either myself or Issac, it doesn't. If it doesn't it will appear to flash "really fast" but in fact not do anything, or throw an error.
[Motorola Triumph] kofman13:
4.0.1.4 is my clockwork now, is that recent enough?

---------- Post added at 03:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:36 AM ----------

yeah calls are a bit wonky. problems with prox. sensor, when putting my face to phone to talk, turns on and off every second, i also have some dropped calls when picking up.
[Motorola Triumph] kofman13:
just installed latest update, did cache wipe and data wipe, but didnt do dalvik after, just regular cache. phone doesnt lock and home button doesnt work.

edit:

battery pull and reboot fixed it

---------- Post added at 05:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:14 AM ----------

so everything works.... how do i bluetooth tether? i dont see anything for it in the app drawer
[Motorola Triumph] Genesis3:
There's nothing in the drawer. Pair the device with the phone, then initiate the connection from the device (e.g. laptop, iPad, etc.) The blue "tethered" icon will appear on the phone on the status bar automatically. That's the beauty of this - it's internal to the operating system and requires nothing special, plus it's inherently secure between the device and phone since Bluetooth connections are inherently encrypted (it doesn't hurt that Bluetooth is also a short-range technology.) Finally, Bluetooth is MUCH more battery-friendly than Wifi.

I have a laptop with Win7 that works great and others on AndroidForums have reported that iPads and iTouches both work as well. It's "always on" in the phone; no need to do anything from the phone side once you're paired with the device you intend to tether.

It's the cat's azz now that MSS clamping is working - no muss, no fuss.
[Motorola Triumph] rp076:
Thanks to someone finally helping out. I was rebooting after doing everything else & it would never work & it was driving me freakin bonkers!!!! Ill be giving this a try later. Thanks! ;)
[Motorola Triumph] tcross8361:
Does any body have any screen shots of the current cm7?
[Motorola Triumph] b_randon14:
Hey would the latest cwm be able to mount and format as ext2? Iknow I can mount an ext3 partition as ext2 on my phone just with umph kernel.

Eventually in my rom I want to make an ext4 and ext2 version. I know I would have to have the updater script format as ext2 or ext4 and make the init.RC mount as ext4 or ext2 in the kernel but what about in the recovery. If I used the latest cwm would it automatically mount the ext2 partition or would it try to mount it as ext3 or ext4?

Sent from my OC'ed Triumph!
[Motorola Triumph] Genesis3:
The kernel in my Clockwork (you can get it over at Androidforums) knows about ext2, ext3 and ext4 filesystems so there should be no problem there.

The kernel in my builds is the same one, and will run any of those as well.

The new build that I'm finalizing now has the front camera fixed and the Smartass2 governor in it along with a handful of other minor changes. That should be up sometime in the next day or so; I have a vertically-reversed image problem with the camera that I have to verify is fixed and then it will be pushed up here and on AF as well.
[Motorola Triumph] primetechv2:
So you're saying that CM7 might be out of Alpha soon? And thus working perfectly?

That and... I know there's a build.prop tweak to make the proximity sensor more or less anal, ran across it just recently >.> Although people of your caliber should already be aware of it.
[Motorola Triumph] freedomispopular:
I'm having issues with connecting to my home wifi. It says the network is out of the range so it just sits there and doesn't connect. I reflashed and it still wasn't working.
[Motorola Triumph] llorn:
Is your network broadcasting its ssid name? Or is it hidden? The current cm7 is unable to connect to hidden networks for some reason.
[Motorola Triumph] freedomispopular:
Yes, it is hidden. Is it just hidden networks or closed networks in general? I don't mind unhiding it but I'd really rather not leave it open.
[Motorola Triumph] Genesis3:
Wifi works fine with secured networks; CM7 in general is incapable of connecting to hidden SSIDs from what I've been told although I haven't done a lot of research on this.

My home Wifi network is secured and the CM7 build has no problem connecting to it.
[Motorola Triumph] freedomispopular:
I had no issues with it when I was running CM7 on my Optimus V, but I guess if what you say is true then it can't be fixed. My dad doesn't remember the password to get into the router so I'll see if I can factory reset the router and change the settings.
[Motorola Triumph] jjuanml22:
Would anyone be kind enough to provide me the kernel for overclocking on cm7? This kernel was great on stock and If I could get a link for one that's working on cm7 that would seal the deal! I can't wait for the hdmi and front camera issues to be fixed and cm7 would be near complete!

(Ohh also, I know this is not in the proper thread but is there any way to show the battery percentage either on the locked screen or on the "top menu"?)

Thanks everyone!!
[Motorola Triumph] freedomispopular:
Got my router reset and set up the network. Phone's connecting to wifi fine now. Thanks.

Here ya go. I'm currently using it with the 9/25 build. I have no idea if future releases will be incompatible or not.

Yes, you can show the battery percentage. Go to Settings > CyanogenMod Settings > Interface > Status Bar Tweaks and there will be a checkbox to show battery percentage.
[Motorola Triumph] Genesis3:
10/2 build is up!
[Motorola Triumph] dugiteddy:
Couple of minor bugs

Camera (when switched to video) constantly zooms in and out
[Motorola Triumph] iv4iv4:
Using the 10/2 build and I noticed that the accelerometer speed is very slow. Makes games that rely on it unplayable i/e Mega Jump, Doodle Jump, and (plug) our game Centrifuge.
[Motorola Triumph] jjuanml22:
I know, I know cm7 is alpha

I just wanted to let everyone know that after recording for approximately ten minutes the video recorder will hang and simply discard the video. I was messing with the video camera and just wanted to help out by pointing this Bug... ohh yeah btw where in cwm do you reset and format the system in order to instal l a newer version of cm 7. thank you guys for all the jard work I really appreciate and I will gladly donate soon.
[Motorola Triumph] freedomispopular:
I'm still on the 9/25 build, but I noticed a couple night ago when I'm listening to music through headphones, if I turn the screen off, i hear this random popping noise. It's only when the screen is off. Has anyone else had this problem?
[Motorola Triumph] dugiteddy:
while in the recovery

navigate to and select wipe data/factory reset

also, go to advanced and select wipe dalvik cache (just in case)
[Motorola Triumph] ravensguildassasin:
yes i have as well, though following the popping noise i will have a reset in addition. i have not updated since this issue has not been addressed yet. (no point in loosing things yet. :P) once it is fixed ill change up.
[Motorola Triumph] jjuanml22:
thanks

Thanks, after doing this I noticed cm7 was snappier. The only issue I have now is that gmail and the navigation apps are missing. (nvm after installing google maps nav got installed as well, gmail too) Now im getting instant locks! This was the most important feature I was hopping cm7 would fix and it did!!!!!! Thank you everyone for all the hard work!!!! Cant wait for hdmi now!
[Motorola Triumph] crxmax:
Is anyone else experiencing a little wake lag? Is screen on animation borked for now?
[Motorola Triumph] kofman13:
yeah, there is lag, about 1-2 seconds longer than froyo stock. but awesome work nonetheless keep it up!!!
[Motorola Triumph] mr2011:
Confirming popping noise on my end. Tried messing with DSP manager to see if it would go away to no avail.

I'm noticing a 1 second wake lag w/o screen on animation, and about 2 second w/ screen on animation.

Will overclock be present in next update? Would love to set up performance profiles up to 1.5Ghz :)
[Motorola Triumph] crxmax:
sometimes my screen doesnt turn on at all =/ i just reflashed hoping it clears out some cobwebs..anyone else have this problem?

edit: so all that got me was a bunch of random rebooting. full wipe and starting from scratch..grr my phone was all set up already smh
[Motorola Triumph] freedomispopular:
Mine too. Sometimes I even get the infamous white screen. But turning it back off/back on one or more times makes it go away.
[Motorola Triumph] jjuanml22:
Am I the only one whose Triumph keeps disconnecting itself from service every half hour, I mean it's nothing terrible but any suggestions on why this happens? Also even though the GPS gets an instant lock, I noticed that the gps will hang for about 40 seconds at times and then it will resume. Now i'm also getting way more dropped calls and it's weird that these issues never happened for months while on froyo. Also sometimes when I call someone I get an error "This person has not setup their voicemail" and then I won't be able to call them. Then I'll use my dad's phone and the call will go right thru. And finally when sending really long text messages, my phone is having trouble sending them while short messages while go through perfectly. So I know cm7 is in alpha still, however, is there anything I can do to fix these issues? Are these problems only occurring on my phone? (I don't know if these problems will be resolved as the focus has moved beyond the calls and gps) Other than that, I'm content with CM7 but I just need some guidance... THANKS! Can't wait for the next release!

(And yes the popping sounds, on screen lag, and sensor issues also appear on mine) Just know that my intention is not to complain, but rather to inform everyone about these bugs.
[Motorola Triumph] Genesis3:
10/12 update is up.
[Motorola Triumph] jjuanml22:
Dang when playing back videos, they sometimes hang. GPS instant lock dissapeared now im back to "waiting for location" screen. Is hdmi working, this issue was simply deleted. I'm probably going back to stock. I loved the last release but it's been just way to buggy, and these problems are crucial. I know that the Triumph's cm7 is in alpha but I thought by now maybe all the quirks would have been fixed.... Why did the other updates get deleted? Now it's impossible to go back.... I'll give cm7 another try maybe in a couple of months after intensive testing. I miss the GPS instant lock though, what happened? "update-cm-7.1.0-A0.6-Triumph-KANG-signed" had perfected the gps with only a minor hiccups...
[Motorola Triumph] Genesis3:
There never was an "instant lock" on GPS. I've put forward here on this forum (and over at Androidforums) what's really going on with the GPS. I've been in the code, you obviously have not. aGPS does not work on this phone - period no matter what you do. The problem is not fixable in the software as the aGPS load to the chip

fails

on the RPC call. I believed in these fixes (and in fact posted one that I thought was working) right up until I traced the actual code while trying to get it working on CM7 and discovered the truth. It is what it is and frankly those who assert otherwise at this point simply earn themselves a spot on my "ignore" list.

I have explained why you see what you see, but if you don't want to believe it, that's fine. Belief doesn't change fact. Trace the code and prove up your assertions (including at the kernel level as I've done) or stick a sock in it with the bleating about things that do not work, whether you believe they do or not. It is precisely this sort of magical thinking that

infests

people in general in this country and it's ruining this nation in literally every area of our lives.

As for HDMI and similar if you're incapable of reading the first post I refuse to assist with what should be the basic responsibility of anyone loading and running custom firmware. HDMI is explicitly listed as non-functional.

I've got no problems playing video, but I don't know what application you're using to do so. Youtube, embedded flash in web sites that I visit, and playback of Camcorder recorded videos (including HD) are all working fine for me.

If you're unhappy with CM7 then of course you should flash back to stock and live with ITS warts. CM7 is not perfect, but I find it INFINITELY preferable to what the phone was delivered with - and that's been true for the last month or so. I've had no compulsion to flash back to stock (despite having it on my phone for use any time I'd like) since the mid-September loads.
[Motorola Triumph] jjuanml22:
I was just voicing my opinions and sorry if it sounded like I was complaining but I was just bummed out. I don't know, but the gps was just working great. I never mentioned all this Agps stuff, I had seen your posts telling people that it never worked. But for somereason build 6 like I said was working great. Anyways like you mentioned, I'm just a "casual" user, I have no coding experience at all, but because of this I ****ing appreciate what you and every other mod are doing. My bad, obviously I overlooked the HDMI issue because It was right in front of me. It's great that CM7 is working perfectly for you, but it didn't fare out too well with my phone maybe it is what it is. I don't know if you're upset, but I was just noting the bugs just too see if others were experiencing the same issues I was facing.

(edit: I went back to build 6 only to find out that the GPS waiting screen came back.) FML... That was strange, but It was crazy that It was working fine for more than a week.. But if it was working and the waiting screen was never showing up could this somehow be replicated? Maybe if anyone wanted to further mess with the gps code.... I'm just saying, it was working exceptionally, but why?

(Ninja edit: reinstalled build 8 I don't know why the GPS is so inconsistent, ill shut up now, however something I noticed is that long text messages are supposedly being sent but after testing this out with two people, on different networks they are not receiving them) Thanks
[Motorola Triumph] tannerzion:
Thanks! I'll be switching to CM7 when some more of the issues are ironed out(I don't have a problem switching now, I just would rather wait as I'm happy with the customizations on my phone currently). Also, when you fix the "Haptic feedback on softkeys is non-functional" could you make it optional? Actually I meant, could you make the lights optional, I don't need them all the time.
[Motorola Triumph] dimasp6:
There is an app on the market called "a GPS injector" (free version/1$ paid version) and it seems to help speed up the lock of the GPS. Well on my triumph anyways.
[Motorola Triumph] tcross8361:
What I've noticed is there will be something that someone figures out to work. It will work for a few days then it goes back to slow lock times. I've tried a couple different methods and this has been the result every time.

What I wonder is if someone who uses it all the time will build some sort of a cache that helps the lock times. Someone like me who doesn't use it that often, it seems to loose its effectiveness.
[Motorola Triumph] primetechv2:
The programs that "lock" the GPS signal aren't really doing anything revolutionary, just something a little different. They force the GPS into locate mode for, say, fifteen minutes straight (or until you tell it to turn off). This uses more battery, but also makes sure you don't suddenly stop trying to locate if the screen shuts off, you switch apps, etc.
[Motorola Triumph] freedomispopular:
Tends to be the case. Even with CM7, I have to use GPS Fix to get a lock, usually within 2 minutes.
[Motorola Triumph] uhsarp:
Does this kernal include CIFS modules?
[Motorola Triumph] Genesis3:
No, but I can attempt to include it in the next build (I will have to see what it does to memory requirements); I assume you want to mount SMB resources (e.g. media over a PC network?)
[Motorola Triumph] mr2011:
Great ROM! Anyone still encountering WiFi lockup issues? My Wifi does not reconnect after sleep most of the time (Something to do with WiFi Sleep Policy?) and I'm having to turn off WiFi and turn it back on to reconnect.

And how's about data for anyone? Since flashing this rom I haven't been able to access Browser or Market while just on network and not wifi :( I have data enabled, but not international or national data roaming. roaming mode at home only.

But still these aren't keeping me from using the ROM, which is VASTLY more feature filled than stock and other ROMS. Cheers!
[Motorola Triumph] Genesis3:
10/16 build is up.
[Motorola Triumph] Vontropnats:
Thank you so much. I just want to say that this ROM saved the Triumph for me...I was on the verge of buying an evil IPhone because stock was so bloated, slow, and inefficient but after patiently waiting for a nice, stable release of this ROM I have to say that I am blown away.

Will be donating in the very near future and will keep you posted if I run into any issues. Thanks again.
