[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] 008325:
does this rom support FM radio ? thanks
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] madmachinist:
Yes. I just tested spirit FM radio (available in the Market) and it works without having to adjust any settings.

just for fun I also copied the FM.apk from the latest cyanogen nightly and installed it as a 3rd party app, but that just force closes.

EDIT: I also tried the HtcFMRadio.apk from BeatMod BlissSense Hybrid v3.2, installed as a 3rd party app and it also force closes. Someone in another thread mentioned that there are lib files that would need to be transferred with the .apk's as well to make them function correctly but I couldn't find any obviously named lib's in either cyanogenmod or BeatMod BlissSense.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Shambolicuk:
Did anyone try the APN patch 2 yet to see if it works? As i reverted to my previous rom for now. And do i just flash the patch from recovery? Thanks in advance.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rkwhyte2:
Request

Can the option "System updates" under settings/about phone be removed. This has to be a potential problem.

No such luck for me coming from 1.0.3 I had to do a full wipe otherwise I get a bootloop. Maybe 1.0.5 to 1.0.6 works fine dunno.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
Patch 2 works
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
Updater.apk was ripped out, and so that no longer functions
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rkwhyte2:
Cool thanks for the info. Keep up the good work this ROM rocks.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Puffballofdoom:
I'm gonna try and upgrade from 1.0.3 to 1.0.6 with a cache wipe. Last time this went wrong, but I didn't wipe cache.. (Though this was from 1.0.3 to 1.0.4)

I hope the new kernel makes it a lot better :)

EDIT: Nope, updating from 1.0.3 still bootloops. Tuna: Maybe put this up in the TS, wipe between 1.0.3 and 1.0.4 required?

EDIT2: After flashing the APN patch, I still don't have mobile data.. :(
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] killj0y:
same thing happened to me, probably the new base build. Anyways i didn't flash the patch any benefit in doing it if i am already getting mobile data?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Quistnix:
I'm really loving this rom, especially for the battery and speed. I kinda miss the crt-animations, but that's just cosmetic.

One question: does this one have a tweakable clock daemon hidden somewhere? After playing with ilwt and virtuous, I'm kinda hesitant to go back to the much clunkier setcpu.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Shambolicuk:
Flashed apn patch from recovery, rebooted and no joy :( UK Desire Z
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] arsonist63086:
have u tried manually putting in the apn setting for your carrier?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Athrun88:
Quit being so lazy people, do a google search for your carriers APN settings. Not that hard and was the first thing I did when I flashed 1.0.5 and realized there was no mobile data.

Just go to google and type " [Carrier Name] APN " without the quotes and substitute [Carrier Name] with your carrier's name. Not that hard really.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] captainreynolds:
Trying to change the ro.sf.lcd_density in the /system/build.prop file to 200, 210 and a few others. This however breaks the wifi calling app, which is odd, considering it worked fine when I did this on rooted stock gingerbread.

Ideas? I seem to remember some compatibility program that would help out with programs that couldn't adapt to unexpected screen densities.

Fantastic rom, ps. Well done! Would love to see the CRT screen on/off animations.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
Try downloading spare parts from the market, then enabling (or maybe it's disabling - can't remember) compatibility mode. After that, reboot and retry Wi-Fi calling with the lower density.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
Odd, had others confirm it works. APN list I'm using is here:

http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/wiki/APNlist

Is your carrier listed? If so, try going to settings > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names, hit menu, then reset to default. Reboot and see if it works.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] arsonist63086:
At&t is nowere on that list lol .... but then again they are stingy no wonder on my friends phone no mater wha rom I put in it the att apn never poped up .. but I just input it myself ..
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] WTF?:
THIS!

Is there any elegant way in software, the black tape seems a little crude, but this keyboard light on and off all the time in the middle of texting someone is REALLY GETTING OLD - I just want it on any time the keyboard is open!!!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Shambolicuk:
Thanks for your responses, i guess i am a little lazy lol. I tried a large APN list file found in Xboarders thread which worked fine for me, thanks to him and T4na for a sweet rom :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] RoyalShit:
Hi there,

I could need some help.

After flashing the ROM all is good. then trying to add my google account I faild :( no network connection. also then trying the browser, I couldn't get to the internet, so no internet connection!

Sorry for asking so stupid, but could it be possible that this ROM is just for T-Mobile customers?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] almostthere:
Did you set to connect to your wifi when it asked you to? If not then you have to manually config your apn
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] RoyalShit:
yes, after it had no conection it asked for wifi.

I did not used it, because I don't have a wireless connection at home.

So the solution would be to connect first time with a wifi and afterwoods it would get connection over my mobile provider?

thx for your quick reply
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
Did you try the 1.0.6 apn patch from the first post? I had several confirm it works, but I can try to put something else together if it's not working for you guys. (I use tmobile in the US, so I can't personally test, need to rely on other international users)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] RoyalShit:
Yes 1.0.6 apn patch is on it.. but not helping for this issue.

- phone calls possible.

- internet via mobile-provider not possible

:(
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
Thanks for the confirmation. I check back later tonight (EST) and I should have something new for you guys to test.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cswroe:
Replace sensors.vision.so in system/lib/hw with the one available here: http://db.tt/Wu1fTuwJ

This will change the settings so that capacative keys will light with screen on, and keyboard will stay lit when open.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] captainreynolds:
Thanks for the response.

Did this, and wifi-calling managed to run in the background, but I could never get it to open without hitting a force close. This coupled with a few other issues has moved me back to the stock rooted rom. A year ago, I would have the time to sort that stuff out, but now I need my phone to be working 24/7! Oh well.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] WTF?:
the new sensors.vision.so helped, but there are still times that the keyboard backlight goes out, they are just much more rare now, so that helped a bunch!

this file replacement seems to make it work as intended from the factory with the light sensor working correctly, I wonder why this file has never made it into this ROM as a permanent bug fix? - wasn't it Gingerbread that broke it initially?

just wish there was a way to lock that backlight on for ANY time the keyboard is open! (I even tried disabling auto-brightness, no luck)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] veloz46:
Why not put the news to Rom manager?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kusiman77:
Does your trackpad light come on after you apply this
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] WTF?:
Why?

On any phone, or for that matter any digital computer display or even digital TV, the best resolution for sharpness, readability, etc, is always the native resolution - nothing can be gained by changing this, but you will certainly hurt the looks and clarity of your G2's display until it is changed back to the ideal factory stock lcd density (resolution) of 240
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] WTF?:
~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yes!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ohshootrawr:
Changing the resolution for the screen, most of the time, isn't for readability or sharpness. It's just for looks. It makes your phone seem like it has a bigger screen, and it appeals to some people.

I honestly don't like the stock lcd density, but id have to resize all my icons to scale the screen the way I want it to, and that's just too much work xD

Sorry for the unrelated comment, this is a great aosp gb rom btw! :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] captainreynolds:
I've noticed no degradation in sharpness, readability, looks, or clarity as a result of changing that value.

If anything, all of those attributes look better - icons and text are all smaller, and therefore actually look less aliased and pixel-y.

I can fit more menu options on the screen. I can fit more emails in my gmail application. And a billion other things.

The decrease in icon size on the home screen, lock screen, and all other screens makes the screen appear larger than it actually is.

Obviously, for other people some of these features wouldn't help, say if you were to have really bad close up eyesight (but it'd have to be pretty bad). However, for my own use, it improves my user experience. I hate using other G2s at the stock density settings.

Sorry if that was long and off topic - I just think the benefits of this greatly outweigh any negatives, and people should know that side of the story.

In a way, this does relate to this rom. Many roms I've used on the G2 actually use 210 as the default value for the screen. I'm surprised this one didn't, actually.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] WTF?:
time to go to the eye doctor! - just sayin!

here is how you can prove it to yourself, you can vary the lcd density (i.e. dot pitch) on your computer at home, just change the screen resolution to something different than the native resolution in your desktop properties!

yes, the icons and labels and text might be bigger (or smaller), but notice how they are now all foggy and blurry and look like crap? - there is really no debating this, if you have an updated eyeglass prescription! (I can spot a screen not in native resolution no more than I walk up near it)

no offense, but why are we even debating this? - it is as silly as a friend of mine that thinks he is gonna write android apps but is afraid to root his phone! - lol :eek:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ohshootrawr:
Have you ever even TRIED changing the lcd density on your phone? Fyi, its nothing like what you're describing xD
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kazuni:
FYI, adjusting the dpi setting does NOT in any way, change the resolution of the "virtual desktop" or interface. All it does is to map it to a higher or lower dpi. Think about dpi change in windows (default 96) everything in the UI will be enlarged or shrunk, with absolutely zero loss in detail, unless the UI graphic components are not re-sizable.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
1.0.7 online, changelog in OP. Finally got around to updating ROM Manager, so if you're a premium user you should be getting an update notification :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Puffballofdoom:
Downloading and testing. I hope the APN for international users finally works. It's the only thing holding me back to upgrade :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
Me too, lol. Let me know!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Puffballofdoom:
It works! Though there's a minor visual problem. I have 4G according to this ROM. I wish it was true, but in Holland we just have HSDPA+ which is H, or 3.5G, not 4G. Just a minor issue, it just means I'm on a higher generation network than 3G.

Also, it doesn't redownload my apps, they should be stored in my google account but nothing happens.

Anyhow, it's superfast and smooth, so thanks for al the work Tuna :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] patek:
Does this ROM contain the Internet Passthrough mode ?

Thanks
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rkwhyte2:
FYI it didn't notifiy me via ROM Manager nor did it show anything available when I asked it to check for updates.

all I need FM Radio , I can download Spirit Fm radio from Market but volume hard keys does not work with Spirit Fm radio , I live in Turkey and can not purchase full licence from market it is blocked :( What should I do a fully working fm radio ?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
*No clue* if it will work, but you can try pushing this to /system/app/

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/102177/FM.apk

It's the FM app from CM7.

Edit: it doesn't work.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] leikamkei:
Downloading and testing. Will let you know if anything comes up :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] 5thave174:
Holy mother of...you've done it! This ROM is now COMPLETELY

AMAZING! thank you so much, Tun4f1sh!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Mnementh666:
So... BT Voice Dialer locked my phone hard (had to pull battery) twice. Known issue I overlooked?

Sent from my T-Mobile G2
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mike102871:
I have no problems with 1.0.6 is there any reason to flash the 1.0.7?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] WTF?:
@tun4 - don't take this the wrong way, but I notice from the changelog that you keep sliding in little bits from CM7 on each revision, please be aware that many of us went to the Virtuous G-lite ROM in the first place due the fact that CM7 is buggy and always has been, and we grew tired of the issues that kept always cropping up (has GPS ever gotten straightened out over there, for example?)

I'd hate for any of that CM7 buggy-ness to unnecessarily creep into this wonderful near-stock ROM! :D

just sayin! - lol

PS - I am still VERY IMPRESSED with your work here, just don't get too frisky with all of the CM7 ingredients or you may mess up the wonderful soup that you and rmk created!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bolidegt:
oh,no! no chinese
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cswroe:
Huh? Weren't you the one clamoring for a keypad light fix that is resolved using a sensor package from CM7?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kazuni:
Guess that's not "the little bits" in his dictionary...:p
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] veloz46:
In the last update does not work trackpadwake!!!! :mad:

Edit: Sorry! and it works!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] WTF?:
a little bug-fix borrowed from CM7 is fine, and I am not complaining about what has made it in so far, just was worried about a trend developing - lol

One of the reasons that this ROM works so well overall, is because it is far away from being CM7 and I sure hope that continues to be the case!!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] veloz46:
Sorry! and it works!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] asim0:
CIQ?

Does this rom have any CIQ bits?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lmanders:
I recently installed this rom and I am loving it however there are a few issues that I have come across. The gtalk app keeps giving me an authentication failed error and will not login. I have my google account sync setup correctly and the market works fine. The power control widget also does not work, it displays but none of the icons are there and it does nothing. Otherwise this is a great rom, keep up the good work!

I am re-downloading and re-flashing the rom to see if this helps. I wiped everything including dalvik cache before installed, and I also tried fixing permissions.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cswroe:
Does not appear to, although there is an HTC logger in system/bin/htc_ebdlogd that can be removed.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] eioous:
Would it be possible to get the MIUI camera and/or music player to work on this Rom?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rkwhyte2:
You have to reboot the device after you install the power control widget and then it should work fine at least that has always been my experience. Not sure about the other problems you are having. Good Luck
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] madmachinist:
Another fix that is a little quicker that doesn't require a reboot is to toggle any one of the features that the power widget controls. Usually what I do is add the blank power control widget then turn on Bluetooth thru settings>wireless & networks. when you go back to the home screen the power control widget will be populated.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] WTF?:
Is anyone having trouble receiving mms messages? (pics)

I hit the download button (even though the settings are set for automatic downloading of mms) and still the pic may or may not ever download.

it could be a conflict between GoSMS and the stock messenger app, not sure!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] arsonist63086:
If it works probably with the stock text app then its a gosms conflict
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cswroe:
I have not really experienced any trouble with GoSMS, although I have trouble downloading pics depending on network. If I am not on 3G it never seems to download.

Also, check your APN's, when the new APN list was added, it will probably have a double entry for MMS now (mine did)...the T-Mobile MMS from the stock, which is just MMS AND T-Mobile US (or something like that from the new list) which will have default,supl,and MMS as its type. I just removed T-Mobile US and Simple APN's and kept the two from the stock ROM (T-Mobile Data and T-Mobile MMS). Having two MMS type APNs seems like it would cause a problem.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] WTF?:
I think I have been having this mms trouble even back in 1.05 and perhaps even in 1.03 - but it is like you said, sometimes never finishes downloading (more often than not) - I am in a somewhat dead spot though, where 3G/4G is not a given. So I don't think this is an APN issue, since it didn't just show up in 1.06 or 1.07

---------- Post added at 07:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:15 PM ----------

another weird issue I am having, not sure when it began:

If I am sitting here at my computer, I can get the full 12mbps I am paying for, over wifi from the wireless router 15 feet away to my computer, but if I have my G2 connected on that same wifi sitting in that same spot, I only get 8 or 9mbps - why wouldn't I get 12mbps from the same speedtest.net server at the same time of day or night in the same spot?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] killj0y:
Speed tests are very inaccurate, and there is a chance the built in wifi sucks a little more. I don't have those kinds of speeds or I'd test it out to confirm.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] killj0y:
Yea I would love to have no ciq if possible!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cswroe:
Still not in this ROM.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] killj0y:
Gasp! But can it be done? or are you saying that CIQ is not in this ROM?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cswroe:
It is NOT in this ROM. Anyone can test it on their own if they download the logging checker.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] WTF?:
OK, you guys have finally sold me on this 190 LCD density business (kicking & screaming - lol)

Due to the amazing quality of the G2/Desire-Z display, it is only very slightly less clear than stock, but the difference in screen real estate just overwhelms every other factor!

it gives the G2 a ~606x1010 pixel resolution! - I'm hooked!

PS - this only works well if you are nearsighted and without your glasses or very young, otherwise you may find it is just too small - but if you can see up close well, it rocks! -

also, I did the math and the native density of this screen comes out to 254!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Negazuotas:
Thanks for an awesome and snappy ROM, using it for a some days now.

However I encoutered a rather small problem, did a search and couldn't find any results:

Did anyone notice that the trackpad responsiveness / sensitivity is way down compared to other roms or even Recovery? During full finger swipe it I usually gotten through 3-4 icons in app drawer, now I barely get to the next one. Same for typing, browsing and selecting menus. Also, left/right swiping seems more responsive than up/down.

Maybe it's possible to increase sensitivity somehow? Or flash other kernel?

EDIT: This problem is in both 1.0.6 and 1.0.7 versions.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] killj0y:
Haven't noticed since I never ever use the trackpad lol. Not until recently with trackpad wake
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] _symo_:
hi everyone i have 3 question about this rom that i'm considering to flash:

-is it possible to add any language to the 2 default?(spanish english)?

-has the kernel support for undervolt cpu, change vdd level?

-is it possible change battery indicator with a mod? not an app

thanks at everyone who is working on this rom.

Waiting for your reply:)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Shambolicuk:
Anyone having problems connecting to bluetooth headset on 1.0.7?

Desire Z
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cswroe:
It has English/Spanish.

You can use and battery mod from UOT Kitchen.

Maybe someone can clarify, but I believe this is only modified using CPU freq. 249/998 wake, and 249/460 sleep. The virtuous kernel is open source and instructions for modificaton are available on their site. Battery life is VERY good.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ~SilverLad~:
Well done yet again tun4f1sh!!

...been a fan of your ROMs since the beginning of the Bulletproof MIUIs, but I wanted to try something different now, and G-Lite does it nicely (on my HTC Desire Z)! ...I think Im going to go from BP MIUI to G-Lite as my everyday ROM now... Well done yet again tun4f1sh!! :)

Missing a few features on G-Lite though - not much, just the torch going on by long-pressing the home button like in the BF MIUI, and the quick-settings on the drop down "notification" menu, thats all... Any way to get those in or alternatively finding 3rd party programs that allow me having these functionalities back??

..oh! And I almost forgot: Im getting a Motorola PRO+ (AKA: MB632, "Elway Plus") on Monday - any chance that you can apply your magic in a ROM for said device at some point/whenever you have a little free time (if ever...)?? :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] spinose:
For languange, use more locale2 app....

The only thing that i dont like in this ROM is that you cannot switch off the phone..always reboot, in an airplane, obliged to remove the battery, is it not possible to add 4 way reboot in this ROM

Thanks anyway, best rom ever use on my desire Z
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ~SilverLad~:
@spinose: Im surprised to hear this because on my HTC DZ is precisely the other way around: No option for just "Reboot", and instead just "Silent Mode", "Airplane Mode" and "Power Off" only...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] G1ForFun:
Lol you sound so biased in your post. Maybe you should actually flash cm7 before spitting out utter nonsense about it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] spinose:
I have also this 3 mod on switch off airplane mode, silent mode and power off, but power off don t swith off the phone, it reboot.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ~SilverLad~:
Oh, I see... Now that you mention it, that happened to me a couple of times with v1.0.6 but upon pressing "Power off", it would reboot INTO RECOVERY for whatever the reason... I havent experienced this issue since I flashed v1.0.7 though.
