I agree, this ROM is amazing, a refreshing break from those heavy sense 3.0 platforms! On T9, I use the Dialer One app, has T9 and all other functionality. My only issue is the stuck voice mail icon, but can live with that as I get sms notifications as well that work.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cswroe:
Out of curiosity, are you using Google Voice for your voicemail?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] David Dee:
No, carrier voicemail. Unfortunately Google Voice is not available in Canada.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] David Dee:
I am using widget locker, great app! Here is a screenshot of my lock screen.

That wont wipe any of my data will it? I flashed it via clockwork recovery and did a full dalvix and data wipe when I did and could anyone help me out with the notification light?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] SnowOokami:
I almost never use bluetooth.. but I wanted to use it just now but I couldn't get it on... it says Enabling bluetooth and then it turns off again without error?

any ideas?

in this email application for exchange you can only sync the mails from the last month

seems in the CM rom, they changed thet email apk and added an option to sync '"all mail"

can you add that too ?

thnx

---------- Post added at 11:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:14 PM ----------

cool, does it also show the unread mail count? on the gmail/email widget?

or do you need to install extra widgets for that?

thx
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] David Dee:
Voice Mail Icon

Ok, I went to a Rogers store and replaced my SIM card. This eliminted the hanging voicemail notification... permanently. I have left myself messages and do not get the status bar notification. Fortunately I am getting carrier sms notification messages. Seems to be similar to the issue with Rogers on CM but apparently that did occur on this rom. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

---------- Post added at 05:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:48 PM ----------

I don't believe so but I haven't tried it. You can get unread email count in the status bar notification with the gmail notifier app. The status bar is visible with this (if one wants).
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cswroe:
Have you checked on a fresh install? Do a backup and then a wipe, see of it replicates.

Only solution may be to start over....sucks, but sometimes only solution.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] David Dee:
Thanks. Will give that a try.....
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cswroe:
For those wanting to sync all your exchange email, you can flash the attached file. It is the email.apk from CM7.

I tried it and it works fine, but as always you are flashing at your own risk, be responsible and do a backup first.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] David Dee:
Fresh install, problem still there :(
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cswroe:
Bummer, If you go to Settings/Applications select all, is there a Voicemail app running? If so and your force stop, what happens?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] David Dee:
Interesting angle but there is no voicemail app on my phone, it is all done through my carrier. Google voice is disabled in Canada. I am thinking this problem is the same one faced by Rogers users on CM7: http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/detail?id=2801

Sucks as this problem didn't originally occur in G-Lite from what I have read. Can live with it as txt notifications are working but still not like the status bar notifications.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cswroe:
Did you try the 12.57.60.25_26.10.04.12_M radio? looks like there was some success with that according to the thread you linked.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] David Dee:
Was thinking about it, just this radio works so well...may as well try. Thanks!

Sent from my Desire Z using the XDA App
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] NoFatePPC:
thnx, can you also make a restore installer to the original file?

or can i just replace the email file with a browser utility ?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cswroe:
You should just be able to replace the file as long as you have /system mounted and writable. It was just easier to do the zip rather than explain the process.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] David Dee:
Changed radio to one above, problem still present...has to be software related.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Freekers1337:
Flashed this ROM yesterday and it's great so far! Very fast and stable...

Let's hope it stays that way. Most ROMs I've tried will start to get sluggish and unstable after 3 weeks of usage.

One thing I really miss tho is the power control in the pull down bar from CM7, but I can live without that ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] outZider:
That, or the extended power control widget. :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bleedingthru:
i installed the oc/uv beater apk and for some reason i dont have the tabs to undervolt did i miss a step because if used the apk before without a problem
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] pearse:
Can anyone comment on battery life compared to older builds of G-Lite? I remember v1.0.2. having insane battery life and then not so much v1.0.3+, havent tried any of tun4's new builds though.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] arsonist63086:
Still some bad ass battery life .. I've used g 1.0.3 and now on 2.0.1(on experamental kernel) and still kicking ass ... on heavy (gaming and streaming) use I get like 7h (.122min & 1.4max)

P.s. best if used with newest radio
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] busbutt:
Is there a recommended radio to use with this ROM? I am in Canada on the Rogers network if that makes any difference. Or should I just stick with the radio I have if I am not having any issues? My current radio is pretty old - 26.02.01.15.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
26.13.04.19 is recommended. It shipped with this base, so all the RILs/libs match with it. I'll add this to OP, thanks
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sparksco:

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] arpitnathany:
For anybody who is still having doubts as to the battery life of this rom
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] captainreynolds:
How did you do that? What kind of use did you get out of it? What radio do you have?

Hey Tun4f1sh, what would you recommend we do for this rom when flashing that radio? Obviously wipe the efs partition, but anything else?

And just to verify for myself and others; by 26.13.04.19 you mean Vision_Radio_12.62.60.27_26.13.04.19, located here?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] David Dee:
Let me know if you receive voicemail notifications in your status bar. Want to confirm it is a Rogers issue. Thanks.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] deaththeorist:
sick sick sick sick sick!!! 3g data perma on?

mindblown seriously... 5 days+ from 100 to 0??
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] captainreynolds:
Looks like he was using wifi calling the whole time, which essentially shuts off the radio I think. That probably accounted for about 2 1/2 days, but still... don't know how you accomplished that. With almost zero usage, I've gotten to zero at about 2.3 days.

HOW???? haha
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Freekers1337:
Today I've encountered a strange bug: When I tried to turn off the screen of my phone by pressing the power button, like you would usually do, my screen would not turn off. Instead, the screen would dim (backlight dimmed) and the backlight of the touch buttons below the screen were also dimmed but the screen remained on. However, although the screen was on, I could not press on any items.

When I pressed the power button again, the screen and touch buttons would lit on again and everything worked as it should but when I pressed the power button again, the same problem occurred.

I had to unlock the phone and browse trough my homescreens before I was able to lock and turn off the screen of my phone successfully.

What could this be causing?

Thank you.

EDIT: I Have been able to capture this bug on camera. I will upload it to YouTube to show you guys what I mean. Hopefully that clears things up, making it easier to track down what's causing this.

Yeah I'm using SwitchPro Widget now. Not exactly the same, you still have to go into settings to turn on GPS, it's more like a shortcut, but it does the trick.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jspina:
new desktop backround!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] pearse:
Holy cow! :eek: thanks for the pic, thats some solid evidence lol.

Also slight OT: Has anyone found any good metamorph themes to use with G-Lite? I'm currently using LunarUI but that only works with Theme Chooser enabled roms, and is pretty much the only reason keeping me switching back to G-Lite.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] skmpowdjy:
Quick question:

Has the lock/call screen slider graphical glitch been fixed, as was present in v1.0.3?

http://i.imgur.com/UstpZ.jpg
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] pearse:
I'm not sure if it has been fixed yet, but if you apply a lockscreen mod from UOT kitchen it fixes it!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] arsonist63086:
That's all standby time but still good .. real light use give like 15h or more
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] scottmahoney:
Can anyone help me with the amber notification light flashing when I receive a text notification as my phone vibrates and the trackpad flashes once I don't need any more lights coming on and sucking on my battery is there anyway I can fix this? Is it controlled by a file I could remove to stop it
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cswroe:
Replace lights.vision.so with an earlier build.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] scottmahoney:
Ok right now im running 1.01 should that do and what directory would I find it in also could someone provide me with the calendar calendar storage and calendar sync adapter apks from this rom as I deleted them and need them again
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Freekers1337:
I've upload a video of the 'wake bug' on YouTube:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GL3xqGteZio

I hope someone can help me out here and solve this issue :)

Thanks
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
Very strange, indeed. Are you using the experimental kernel? Any other modifications worth noting?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] WTF?:
and people think I am weird for doing a superwipe+ before every ROM update!!

that phone of yours is possessed! - lol

I would totally pull the battery for like an hour, and then completely repartition the phone - like if you were changing to the G2 hboot

it gonna take this kind of serious action to kill off whatever the hell has infected your desire-Z
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Freekers1337:
No, I did not flash a custom kernel or modified any kernel related settings such as clock speeds.

I also did not restore anything using Titanium Backup. I wiped data and cache before flashing the ROM and then reinstalled all my apps and settings manually.

I pulled the battery for an hour and the problem hasn't occured yet again. I hope it stays this way, if not I'll do a superwipe+ like you recommand, unless tun4f1sh (or anyone else) has an easier solution. Hate reinstalling all my apps and settings again ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
I see a battery % mod. Do you know if it was created before or after version 2.0.1? If it's from a version prior 2.0.1, that could be your issue. (Made framework changes for APM in 2.0.1)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Freekers1337:
Indeed I forgot to tell. That's the only change tho. I believe it has been created after ver 2.0.1. I got it from this thread from this post:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
Cool. cswroe created that after the update, so that's fine.

But yeah, I haven't seen that happen on my phone, and you're the first person to report it. Since I don't know your exact ROM install procedure, I'd follow WTF?'s advice and perform a superwipe (Just to make sure there's nothing stagnant on your system breaking things), then reinstall the ROM.

A logcat would also be useful; your screen should absolutely turn off when you hit the power button. No idea why it's not.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Freekers1337:
Alright, will do if it happens again! After the battery pull it hasn't happened anymore so. Thanks for the quick response!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] arpitnathany:
nope no wifi calling here in india although i was connected to wifi the whole time

everything was stock i.e. what came with this rom, this is basically just standby usage with wifi on (sleep set to never) push mail whatsapp and gmail. still its pretty incredible.

oh and who says this was 100 to 0 i am still going on the same charge

now i am at 7% battery (i suspect it'll go on for a few more hours)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Freekers1337:
Just happened again. Will do a superwipe this friday/saturday. Will let you know if all works well now :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Bonusbartus:
now using this rom for about a week, and I'm stunned at how well it runs :D

before this I used the Virtuous Unity and Vituous Affinity Roms.

only thing I miss is the HTC dialler, and the taskmanager in the notification bar...

any tips from you guys?

thanks
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mlynch01:
Try exDialer, Go Dialer or DialerOne from the market. Go Dialer and exDialer both have different themes to go along with them as well. You won't miss HTC dialer after using any one of those 3.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cswroe:
Check out extended controls or widgetsoid, map to long press search and you well have forgotten all about the notification bar.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] IIIV:
That's exactly what I did before I flashed this ROM on my gf's G2. Overclocked it to 1000 MHz and it's been perfect so far.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] WTF?:
ummmm....... G-Lite comes overclocked out of the box at 1000Mhz, and anything you do on this ROM concerning additional overclocking is probably a bad plan.

- if you use any overclocking utility besides the Virtuous overclocking daemon, it tends to cause problems.

- any overclocking beyond the stock 1Ghz on this ROM tends to turn the phone into a battery hog.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] IIIV:
I used SetCPU. I thought I bumped it up from 800 to 1000 MHz. But, as you mentioned it was already set to 1000 MHz. SetCPU's max value is 1000 MHz.

Thanks for the info. I'll uninstall SetCPU on my gf's G2 later.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mike102871:
I'm using set cpu with the "experimental" kernel clocked at 122/1428 with no problems at ALL.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] busbutt:
Sorry, but I'm on a pay as you go phone and I don't have voicemail, so I can't comment on that. I'll report back on anything I find once I flash the radio.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] scottmahoney:
Would it be possible for some one to provide me a earlier build of lights.vision.so that dosent have it so the amber notification light flashes when I receive a notification and what directory I would find it in so I can replace it like cswroe suggested and if anyone could provide me with the three apk's need for the calendar to function as I deleted them from the system/app folder
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cswroe:
Download 1.0.5 to your phone or computer. Extract the zip. Take lights.vision.so from system/lib/hw from 1.0.5 and replace it on your device, it will be in the same location. You can use ES file explorer to do this, make sure you enable system write.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jgummeson:
Not sure if this has been reported yet, but the trackpad click is not working. Works fine for moving/scrolling, but just won't click.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] David Dee:
Thanks for getting back to me. I am sure you would have the same problem as it definitely appears to be a Rogers issue.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] WTF?:
It has no trackpad wake yet, but I am beginning to think that for some people (like me) that trackpad wake is probably not such a hot idea anyway.

I carry my phone in my pocket, with no case, and if it had trackpad wake, it would just be waking up in my pocket and running the battery down for no reason, and even possibly calling someone!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] erichung_13:
TP wake only wakes to lock screen im pretty sure..
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cswroe:
Is anyone else experiencing being stuck on the Google Start-up screen with this? A battery pull once or twice...three...four....five times seems to finally it running, but have wiped, re-installed and seeing the same.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] leikamkei:
This is RMK saying why there isn't TP wake on the previous version of G-Lite. So for any future posters that intend to post only asking for TP wake, READ THIS! Anyways... Loving your work. Still messing around with my backups :p
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
It worked fine for me, no reboots or anything necessary. Make sure you're not using the superwipe+ext4 or anything like that (use the ext3 version)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cswroe:
Still no go.... Superwiped with the ext3 version, installed rom and it boots up fine, installed patch and it hangs as google gears screen. May just be my device, will keep messing with it.

EDIT: Re-installed ROM and original fix and am at least up and running.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
Let me know, and if anyone else is experiencing the same, please report back.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] pearse:
Hey Tun4fish just wanted to say big thanks for continuing on this great rom, really appreciate it!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] wildone81:
Well, tried the newest version with the kernel patch, just to see if I could figure out now the WiFi Calling worked without kineto_gan.ko, only to have it get stuck in a boot loop with the logcat repeating

W/AudioSystem( 1320): AudioPolicyService not published, waiting...
W/AudioSystem( 1247): AudioFlinger not published, waiting...
I/ServiceManager( 1320): Waiting for service media.audio_policy...
I/ServiceManager( 1247): Waiting for service media.audio_flinger...

in an endless loop. Reflash without the kernel patch, no problem. Also tried just transplanting the boot.img with the wifi module into a stock rooted environment, only to get the same issue. All I really want is the OC/UV kernel that I can use with a stock ROM, so this really doesn't work (and a lack of a kineto_gan.ko module worries me).
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Athrun88:
Great to see an update to G-Lite! Just recently got back to G-Lite because I missed AOSP and ditched Sense for abit.

Quick question, with previous releases, it was okay to flash over the existing ROM, is it still true? Or would it be a better idea to just wipe and install fresh? I only ask because i just flashes 1.0.3 afew days ago and just got everything set up.. =[.. thanks! =)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] arsonist63086:
No you will have to do a full wipe and clean installation since its a new base rom ..
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
Kernel work continues, I'm marking the thread "DEV" until I get it right. Hopefully I can pin down all the issues and release an updated version tonight. Other than the USB and/or camera breakage (depending on which kernel you're using), the ROM is running like a dream. Hang in there with me guys, this is a great base we're working with, and once everything is sorted you should be very, very happy :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
I think I've got the kernel sorted, is anyone around who can test? (everything working on my device, but I want someone else to try too)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cswroe:
I have time if you are needing someone to test still.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rkwhyte2:
Count me in if you still need help testing.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] leikamkei:
Count me in too for testing :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Akdor 1154:
Hey, loving the work, but maybe release it as a beta until it goes through some more testing and reaches feature parity with rmk's versions? :)

Also I'd love to see some proper performance and battery benches between releases. I think this is especially important on a mod with the minimalist goals this one has. I'm happy to give a shot at providing these, long as keeping them improving between releases and not creeping backward is taken seriously. :) (not taking a shot at the author, just concerned that so many software projects fall victim to this)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ajk1311:
I would be willing to test too if you still need testers!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lazyluis32:
im in for testing!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tun4f1sh:
Thanks all, I appreciate the responses (and patience). rmk was probably the best developer that our device ever saw, so I've got big shoes to fill :)

I put a lot of time into the kernel last night, and I'm getting close. I just need to resolve a race condition with the mediaserver, and we should be golden. I've also got ext4 working, so that will also be in the next release. HTC's commitment to keeping their kernel sources updated is very frustrating, as they've OBVIOUSLY updated things, without releasing their updates for public consumption, grr.

If everyone was very fond of rmk's UOT framework mods in the last build, I can re-implement that as well. I figured leaving the ROM deodexed and giving everyone the opportunity to mod it to their liking would work, but it's up to you all.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] matthewjett:
I just keep coming back to this ROM. I'm at admitted crack-flasher, but this ROM is just so smooth and fast, but not featureless. Love it. Keep up the great work.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] NoFatePPC:
i am also using this kind of rom for the first time, loving it too :-)

always used sense before, but it was too slow for me

but how do you compare it too CM roms? i was also interested for testing those roms out

thnx
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] matthewjett:
Ttytt .. Cyanogens WiFi performance is just unacceptable to me. I'm on WiFi most of the time I'm on my phone and I just can't deal with the poor signal issue.

This ROM has much more consistent results, probably because its more closely based on stock.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jacklc000:
Any chance of getting flashable zips of the 2 kernel options?

I'm using the experimental one at the moment and would like to try the stock without a flashing the entire rom again....
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Negazuotas:
Great ROM, runs better than G2 Slim, also better battery life in 2.0.1 :)

However, I can't get LED notifications to work. SMS LED notifications doesn't work if I use popup feature (tried multiple apps for that), also Light flow, etc.

The missed calls LED notifications doesn't work at all. Or are they not supposed to?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] matthewjett:
Seconded
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jacklc000:
I did a little research.....Here and Here

And created these 2 zips...

Experimental shows as 3.2+

Stock shows as 4.0.0+

I've flashed both with no problems.....please make a back-up first!

I'm very much a noob....but they worked for me!!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] matthewjett:
TY!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] scottmahoney:
Ok got the file I have Root explorer should work just as good right and this should stop the amber notification light from lighting up right. Also question what should I set my screen off profile at with set cpu

EDIT: did what you told me to the light still comes on
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cswroe:
Root explorer should work fine, delete the original file before copying the new one over.

Why are you using Set CPU? The default ROM has screen off profile built in.
