Is there any reason to go from CM7 to the 1.41 update?

The only thing I was looking forward to that I can't do on CM7 is run the Hulu Plus app like the Nook Tablet can do. But it looks like that won't even be possible with the Nook Color update.

Is there any reason to bother with the 1.41 update for those running CM7?
[Nook Color General] capnron65:
No Hulu...at least not yet

Netflix, Rhapsody, UStream, Showtime, MOG, Grooveshark and other crap.

I'm pissed. They F'd the Nook Color up as far as I'm concerned. I'm going to try and go back to 1.3 maybe. I needed the native Reader app and they messed it up for me. It does auto-rotate now which is nice, but it does not format my companies manuals correctly now.
[Nook Color General] angomy:
Wait, what's wrong with Hulu Plus app on CM7? I just watched the latest Colbert Report episode on High quality mode using that app on my Nook Color.

You'll have to manually install the apk and restore data from TiBu to get it to work, but it does work and has for months.

Thread below has the files you need. Drop 3 files in zip into Timbuktu Backup folder (I can't remember if /sdcard/TimbuktuBackup is the default), then install the APK by double-clicking on it but do not open after installation is done --- restore data only setting in TiBu for Hulu Plus first. You should be up and running without a hitch after that (I'm running it without a modded build.prop)

Maybe a little off but think this way

+ CM7 (Gingerbread) = Windows 7

+ Stock (Froyo) = Windows XP

Do you want to go back to XP from W7? :)
[Nook Color General] Paul22000:
I think you answered your own question, hah. Natively, the app does not work, which is what is wrong with it.
[Nook Color General] 511pf:
I believe Conde Nast magazines like Wired require Nook native software (and not the Nook Android app). Not sure if the magazines work on 1.3 or require 1.4.
[Nook Color General] bobstro:
I re-flashed to 1.4.1 today to try things out. The interface is outwardly the same as on the Nook Tablet now, though I understand it's still Froyo underneath. Wired Magazine does load now -- no more "not on this device" message like on 1.3 -- and all the neat, interactive features in the magazine work just as on the NT.

I actually like the 1.4.X interface. Unfortunately, my experiments with rooting it on my NC have not worked, and the bloody thing just wiped itself. If I could get it to function like the rooted NT, I'd probably stay on it for a bit. It's a shame the B&N launcher isn't available as an overlay. I guess they're scared I'll buy stuff from them?

Is it possible just to apply 1.41 update onto the CM7 - what would happen then? My bro does not care about root n all stuff - he just wants stock back because CM7 eats the battery and shouldnt have done it in the first place...

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mattdufrene:
I was running Paul's custom ROM for the past week or so. I plugged my phone in to a portable charger because the battery was low. This is not the first time I have used this charger on this phone. After a few minutes the phone rebooted. I found this odd so I tried to figure out what was going on. I unlocked the device and went into settings....phone rebooted again. I tried reflashing the MoDaCo ROM, reflashing the original ROM and resetting the device. It still does it. Im still new to Android platform (moving away from a shameful iPhone) so Im lost on what the problem could be. Any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
did you undervolt and tick set on boot without testing voltages?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mattdufrene:
No. I didn't change any of that. My phone is unusable
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mattdufrene:
I think one of my apps is causing it. Is that possible even though I'm not running the app?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
I have no idea. I think youre leaving out something.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mattdufrene:
After i restore to factory everything works fine. It starts again (doesn't matter which ROM I'm using) when Google syncs the apps I've downloaded to the phone. It's stable right now until I figure out what the hell is going on.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
I would say app but you said you wiped everything..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mattdufrene:
Right. It works fine until Google starts to sync my data from my account. Is there a way to pinpoint which app is causing the damage?

Nevermind. It does it anyway. Hardware issue? Overheating issue?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kbrown.1407:
Hey everyone, I'm new to the site and fairly new to Android. Got a thunderbolt when it came out and rooted out a few months back. Currently running CM7 and have tried many bamf roms as well. Anyways, my question is about the wifi sleep setting. It's my understanding that wifi sleep being set to "never" means that when connected the wifi will stay on whether the phone is awake or not. That is not happening with my phone and it hasn't happened since I've had the phone that I can remember. Is this typical or an I missing something?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bpyazel:
Must be a bug somewhere in CM. I'm using bamf forever 1.09 and my wifi never disables on sleep. Maybe a kernel issue also.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kbrown.1407:
Thanks for the response!

I have tried multiple ROMs (including multiple BAMF ROMs) and I've had the same issue with all of them I believe. I think it was even happening while on stock actually. I wasn't paying much attention at to it at that point in time because I was new to Android and mesmerized by everything else I wasn't looking at that at all but I don't remember a time when I would wake my phone and it still be connected to Wifi.

Is there some sort of testing I can do to see what the issue is? I really like CM7 because my battery life is outstanding with it but I am open to flashing another ROM to see if that's the issue.

Anyone have any other ideas of what it might be/actions to try to determine the issue?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kbrown.1407:
I flashed a new ROM yesterday (Infected Eternity) and it appears as though the wifi is maintaining connected while at rest. I'll keep an eye on it and update if anything changes. Looks like it must be something within CM7. Thanks for the heads up bpyazel!

On a side note, the new ROM seems to be pretty nice as well. Battery life has been acceptable (better than most of the other ROMs I've run, with the exception of CM7) and it also has a DarkHorse theme available which I am a fan of. I'll be sticking with this for a bit to see how much I like it.
[Galaxy S II General] razar77:
Reading through threads I see lots of people saying JD and similar apps are good and lots saying they are bad. This is quite confusing for someone who just wants to get good battery life. In my experience I have gone from finding it good to finding it bad. I will try and explain why this occurs so that people are able to decide if it will be worthwhile for them.

First install Battery Monitor Widget and find out what sort of drain your battery is experiencing every hour.

With a stock rooted G2 with data connection on continually (no wifi) I was getting around 80-150 mA which explains why it would not last longer that about 16 hours. Most of this drain seems to occur from data connections. After installing JD or something similar the drain can be reduced to around 50 mA. Which is great, suddenly you get the claimed 1.5 to 2x battery life. JD seems great.

But after you install a good ROM and custom kernal, remove or freeze all the apps that keep using your data connection unnecessarily and install Better Battery stats you observe that JD stops the phone going into a proper deep sleep. If you dump it the drain on the phone drops to very low numbers usually under 20mA sometimes 5mA or even 2mA. This means you use around 1-3% of the battery life of the phone overnight with no changes. Now your phone can last days between charges. Note this is with Data or Wifi connections turned on and Sync active always.

Summary:

On a badly set up phone JD improves battery life (for the lazy)

On a well set up phone JD worsens battery life (takes some time)

Note: I got the best results using Speedmods kernal but I have no reason to think that other kernals could not get similarly low battery drains.
[Galaxy S II General] TheSopranos16:
Thanks for sharing your observations. I have juice defender and have had similar findings. The wake locks jd causes play into the aos bug of the phone which is why it can make things worse on a well set up phone (the extra drain from the wake locks outweighs the savings from turning the data connection off when it's not in use). If not for the aos bug it would probably be good in all cases. I had noticed this in my testing and am glad to see I'm not the only one.
[Galaxy S II General] ruffruff:
Thanks for sharing your observations.

If I had seen your post much earlier than I wouldn't have to buy JD. Anyway, I have gone through the hard way, and learnt how to keep my phone organized and minimized rouge apps issue. JD is pretty much useless now.

IMHO, I think Battery monitor widget pro seems to be a much better buy ;)
[Galaxy S II General] sebarkh:
Thanx for this helpful info!

BTW, kernel not kernal :)
[Galaxy S II General] Mittaa:
I do not have a lot of widgets and sync as little as possible. Mail sync is only on demand (when I have time to read it), and Weather is every 6 hour (disabled in night time).

So my battery live is good ½% standby and with normal use it can easily last a full day (no gaming, just Internet, Talk, SMS).

I decided to try JD in order to save even more juice, but JD ended up using more battery than it saved me!

So I can confirm that JD is good for the "lazy user" and bad if your aware of your sync. and how your apps behave.

What do u mean by dumping? You said if you dump it and the drain goea away?:D Im a bit confused:P

[Galaxy S II General] foxcheng:
best way to save battery overnight are, disable all internet connection including Wifi, switch to 2G, kill all task :) then have a sweet dream till next sun rises ;)
[Galaxy S II General] razar77:
By 'dump' I just meant uninstall JD. If you uninstall JD your phone will be able to deep sleep properly provided it is set up well and you actually save more battery.
[Galaxy S II General] razar77:
Sure you can do that, but it's not necessary. I leave wifi and 3g on and still have drain of 5mA all night. I wake up and have lost almost no battery. The same applies for when the phone is idle during the day.
[Galaxy S II General] Manitax:
What kernel , Rom and apps (that sync) are you using?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saramon:
Just a quick question, if I use an extended battery, will it show something other then ~4200mVh, this is where the normal battery was beforehand. Thanks in advance
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
No. It has more mAH not volts. It is just 2 batteries in parallel. So it puts out more current not voltage.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] dsafety:
I just got my Tab back from Samsung with a successful repair to a problem that made it impossible for me to update the device. After a few days use, I now have a new problem. The device will power up normally but after about five seconds, the screen dims. Five seconds later, the unit shuts down. The power meter shows that it is at 95%. Power Saving mode is turned off.

I have done a factory reset with no change, (except that all my data and settings are now gone). Samsung support was useless. After about 20 minutes on an online chat, I was told to fill out a service request. Unfortunately, it appears that Samsung's service module is having problems. After looking up my registration, it tells me that my serial number is invalid.

If this thing did not cost so much, I would toss it against a wall. Maybe I should have bought an iPad.

Has anyone else experienced this problem, (the one with the device powering off, not the crappy Samsung support)?

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] EyeSight6:
hey.

I don't have much to say though I think I had a similar problem not to long ago.

My tab was in an endless reboot loop and by the way it was not flashed or rooted in any way.

I found out that it rebooted every time it tried to connect to my Wi-Fi.

Finally I figured it out and it was simple, I just restarted my router.

Hope it helps...

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goconfigure73:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] perif:
Hello,

i don't have any issue on my side, although i use different mac.

Have you tried to use "system_profiler SPUSBDataType" in the Terminal app ? It gives you information on linked usb devices of your mac. Does your phone appear ? What appear in the system profiler ?

Also, you can access your phone files from your mac over wifi, using Kies (installed by default on the Note) or airdroid (which i prefer personally).
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sebring5:
Plug into your Mac. If unknown network notification appears on your Mac cancel network connection. Tap on USB connect in the notification bar on the Note and say yes when it asks if you wish to USB connect. Your external and internal SB cards will appear on the Mac as no name folders.

Alternatively you can download Kies here: http://www.samsung.com/uk/support/usefulsoftware/KIES/JSP

To use Kies after downloading and installing, turn USB settings, plug into the Mac and tap Kies connection when prompted in the notification bar.

Hey everyone. Gotta say, i love this phone its the android device i always wanted. However, im having issues with my car bluetooth which i have not experienced before... namely, that random phonecalls sound completely digitized.

Ive come from an htc desire and htc sensation on the same car without issue and am worried i got a bad BT antenna-or its software...

Anyone out there experiencing the same thing? Any advice (other than buying a new car)?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ig88:
I am having the same issues on a Verizon Galaxy Nexus V4.02. If I turn bluetooth off mid-call the earpiece sounds fine. The static only happens during voice calls, streaming A2DP sounds fine. There are bluetooth improvements listed in the 4.03 changelog, hopefully this will be resolved.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dlaciv12:
I had some problems with my BT speaker phone. I turned off the key press sounds and the screen off sounds and that pretty much fixed it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 1454:
I have an off topic question for you guys that use bluetooth streaming. Can start the car and press play from the HU to start music? I can with my old D2, but not my TB. I have to actually start the music player on the thunderbolt, then I can control it from my HU. I would like to upgrade, but I don't see a huge advantage in upgrading if I still can't start my music without having to actually take the phone out of my pocket. (Yes, I know it's stupid, but I'm lazy.)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ]grimm[:
I have this same issue in one of my cars. I ran a number of tests and the issue only occurs on my vehicle when the phone is connected to both for telephony and a2dp music. The static occurs whether or not a2dp is actually being used to stream music or not. This particular vehicle has two separate devices for music and telephony. If I unpair or disconnect the music device, then telephony works without the audio distortion. As soon as I reconnect the music device, the static is re-introduced.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Stowegy:
I am experiencing this issue as well and have not been able to resolve it. I've tried disabling the touch sounds, screen off sounds, etc. but to no avail.

It pretty much makes handsfree unusable while driving. What have you guys done in the meantime? Have you been able to resolve the issue yet?

Here's my specific details:

Phone: Verizion LTE Galaxy Nexus v4.02 stock/unrooted

Handsfree Car System (phone audio): Stock 2007 Audi A4

Separate A2DP Module (media audio): Dension Gateway Five connected to factory Stereo

All of my previous phones (Thunderbolt, Droid X, Incredible, OG Droid) have fully supported this setup with no issues whatsoever.

On a sidenote, my A2DP streaming is also unreliable. It first has trouble connecting to the device. If/when it does, audio constantly cuts out when streaming Pandora, Slacker Radio, Google Music... pretty much any streaming over network connection. I have not tried locally stored music yet as I don't have any currently stored on my device. Are you guys experiencing this A2DP issue as well?

I wonder how widespread this is and if it warrants opening an official issue with Google.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] radi0chik:
I used to have a Blackberry Torch, and I have a Ford Mustang. When I would connect the BT to it, if the Wifi was on, it would "interfere" with the signal. Turning wifi off, fixed the issue. This was a widely known issue with the Torch. Granted that shouldn't have to be a fix, but can any of you verify whether your wifi is on? (regardless of if its connected to anything or not). I'm wondering if the Nexus is using the same BT/WIFI chip that the Torch used.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Stowegy:
I appreciate the suggestion but unfortunately, I have the issue even if WiFi is off (I never use WiFi).

I'm going to try and toggle a few of the sound and haptic feedback settings a little more to see if it's pertinent to a certain on/off configuration. It's a shot in the dark but I'll try anything at this point.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] radi0chik:
ok it was worth a shot. Maybe on a whim turn off 3g/data so basically its airplane mode except BT is on? Just to eliminate any RF interference. Other than that I dont know :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Stowegy:
Spent quite a bit of time in the car today to try and pinpoint a cause and I have had no luck.

Phone audio will sound great and then all of the sudden turn digitized and distorted for a random period of time, then revert back to sounding great. One thing to note is that the distortion is both ways - the person I'm talking to also hears it when I speak and cannot understand what I'm saying. It's very frustrating not being able to use this feature.

I am on my 2nd replacement phone and ALL of them have had this issue (returned two others to VZW due to this issue and the speaker clicking issue). I am still wondering if it is software/OS releated or if it's due to poor hardware.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Stowegy:
Quick Update (kind of):

I messed around with more settings last night. I am happy to report that after I disabled NFC last night, I made several handsfree calls in my car with perfect clarity and no issues. Also, A2DP streaming Pandora worked flawlessly! I was happy that I thought I pinpointed the issue - NFC interference.

BUT this morning, I made a handfree call and it was immediately distorted. Frownie face! A2DP Streaming Pandora still worked great. I am now trying to determine if my success last night was a fluke or if something is different with the phone this morning. The only difference from last night to this morning, that I have been able to identify so far, is I now have the extended battery in the phone. Last night's success had the standard battery. I'll switch them back at lunch and re-test.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vicn77:
I've got the same issue. Even with NFC disabled. Makes listening to Pandora in the car unbearable. I've gone through the same steps as you, but hasn't exchanged the phone yet. I've had previous Androids and it was a hit/miss with the distortion, but with an iPhone or BB never had this issue. Go figure.
