Does anyone know if each nightly is different from the last one? File size hasn't changed in awhile.seems pointless if we're flashing the same rom every day
[Motorola Photon 4G] atroph:
Probably not. I would flash weekly if you were needing a flash fix.
[Motorola Photon 4G] badgett:
I only flash when I see the size change.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Equalizir:
I think I'll do that too from now on.
[Motorola Photon 4G] zansatsu:
*Bump*

New nightly, and the file size has changed (by .01kB). :silly::eek::cyclops:

So this does work on GSM I'm using T-Mobile sorry if this been a long time since I used my Photon thanx in advanced
[Motorola Photon 4G] ttkyles:
wow,latest nightly sends /receives mms fine

:)

Nice Cybik!!!!
[Motorola Photon 4G] cybik:
Upstream fix must have included a fix for that. I didn't touch **** :P

Also, my build node is finally back up. And the new kernel work should be up soon.
[Motorola Photon 4G] cybik:
maybe if you use the radio ungodly-hack.
[Motorola Photon 4G] eurohunter:
I used this ROM on AT&T by first flashing the KDDI japanese radio, and then flashing CM7. It worked well on mine. So i'm guessing it should be fine for T-Mobile as well.
[Motorola Photon 4G] dingo502:
Does anyone know if the hdmi rotation bug has been fixed?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Jonathanlc2005:
Cybik I got a question for you... does the bootstrap work with this to retain 4g
[Motorola Photon 4G] Jaemostoriginal:
Nope you need unlocked boot loader for this one
[Motorola Photon 4G] cybik:
even _if_ you could retain 4g functionnality, I never really cared to test it or even gave it any thought, and there's issues with generic WiMax as it is. I went for the common feature to ALL Sunfires, USC, KDDIau and Sprint alike: Classic Data.

Also I don't have any WiMax network to test it with.

#imacanuck

not sure you can

FM doesn't work? I never use that :P
[Motorola Photon 4G] wolficus:
this new kernel that is coming out. will you be able to undervolt it any?
[Motorola Photon 4G] cybik:
no idea and no incentive to do it for myself. I'd rather run everything as near to Motospec as possible.
[Motorola Photon 4G] :
Does this have the Stock Kernel or can I flash an Overclocked one? Thanks. :)
[Motorola Photon 4G] Acvice:
Cybiks own CM7 kernel. But yes, you can install a different CM7 kernel that is capable of being overclocked such as Oleg's or Joker's. However, since Cybiks kernel continues to get updated, I've found that even without the overclocking it seems to run more stable, cooler, and better on the battery.
[Motorola Photon 4G] :
Id love to see some screenies. :)
[Motorola Photon 4G] Acvice:
Some screenies of what exactly? Ill get some uploaded for you.
[Motorola Photon 4G] :
On CM7 running, like the home screen and drawer.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Acvice:
Mine is pretty heavily modified with themes and morphs, but you get the jist. Smooth as a whistle, everything workin great.
[Motorola Photon 4G] :
Don't see the pictures. =(
[Motorola Photon 4G] Acvice:
My bad.
[Motorola Photon 4G] :
Wow, thanks... Looks great! Everything works flawless too you say? :)
[Motorola Photon 4G] badgett:
Sometimes the storage gets screwy. Music and pics don't show right sometimes. Stable a heck for the most part.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Acvice:
Interesting, I've never experienced that and I've used this ROM off and on since it's release. But yeah JWT, I suppose some people hit snags every now and again. But in terms of usability, stability, and customization this is probably the best ROM we have until all the kinks with JB gets sorted out. I will admit that Peetrs HybridROM is slightly more stable and has arguably the best battery life of ROMs for the photon. But I prefer cm7 due to the sheer amount of customization options.
[Motorola Photon 4G] dingo502:
Has anyone tried HDMI?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Akhileshjj:
FM Radio App in CM7

Anyone who is using the FM Radio app in this ROM?

I have downloaded the one from Google play but it is forever saying "FM Radio is being launched please wait..."

I tried using the the app from Peetr's Hybrid RoM (FM is working on Peeter's hybrid RoM) but still the same issue.

Can anyone who has tried using the same reply?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Acvice:
The new build from today doesn't by any chance have any of that new kernel work in it eh Cybik?
[Motorola Photon 4G] cybik:
recent builds should have the new kernel work. It's been merged as of august 21st. wifi might be a mite better.

I don't think I really bothered with the FM radio lately. I think it was working initially but that's mostly a side-feature. I like Tune-In :P
[Motorola Photon 4G] zansatsu:
Feels... snappier to me... maybe I'm suffering from the placebo effect, but if not, nice job! :laugh:
[Motorola Photon 4G] jam97:
Try Spirit FM Radio ,it works for me.

[Motorola Photon 4G] cybik:
can you get me a log of everything? I'd very much like to get rid of that bug, but since I'm not CDMA, I can't really test that.
[Motorola Photon 4G] na7q:
it only pops up once and that's on a fresh install on the first boot. it disappears after that. at least for me! does yours happen at every boot?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Lightsword1942:
Back when I was on CDMA that was also what happened.
[Motorola Photon 4G] sivarticus85:
I'd be glad to, once I'm off work tonight I'll send you a logcat.
[Motorola Photon 4G] sivarticus85:
Yes everytime I reboot. Its not a huge deal, if I remember to clear it quick enough.

Quick question... I've never run a logcat on a reboot. I would need to run it from adb during start-up right?

Nvm I think I got it.
[Motorola Photon 4G] frozndevl:
First, well done on joining the team!

Second, for the uninitiated, I haven't been following CM updates for so very long, does this mean that we are close to getting official nightlies by the build bot, or are you still having to self-compile?

And here are some f**ks for you to use on your developing. *give*
[Motorola Photon 4G] netengineer:
Try downloading a diff version, extracting the contacts-provider.apk and using that. Push into /system/app with Root Explorer, fix permissions rw r r and reboot...may change it.

Also, check your build.prop and see if you have a 0 or 7 at the end of the line that says something like this:

ro.telephone.default.network=

It should be a 7 if on cdma, 0 if gsm
[Motorola Photon 4G] sivarticus85:
Ah yes the build.prop does indicate a 0 in that field and I'm on CDMA. I'll change it and reboot and see if that's the issue. Thanks for the tip.

No dice. Still got the fc.
[Motorola Photon 4G] ryan8r:
Try changing the value in the CWM zip and flash the rom again. Worked for me once on cm9.

Sent not from your device!
[Motorola Photon 4G] sivarticus85:
Interesting. That did the trick. Not sure why it did, maybe I should have wiped cache and dalvik... Anyway, thanks for the help.
[Motorola Photon 4G] cybik:
Thus the need for a CDMA/GSM initial config and a panel in the settings. I need to get on that one.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Acvice:
Dude, Cy, I installed this earlier today having been on CM9 since its release and i must say this rom is phenomenal. Extremely smooth, no problems whatsoever. I tried the kang CM7 a while back and found it to be a bit sluggish with fc's here and there, not so with your cm7. Thank you for your work, probably will not be going back to cm9 till the official release.
[Motorola Photon 4G] sivarticus85:
Glad you guys were able to figure that one out. Now all is well and my wife can continue to badger me...lol :)

i have a small issue with video recording. it works but it takes forever to save. causing it to freeze up sometimes. anyone else have this problem?
[Motorola Photon 4G] scott2020:
I'm now on the 9-2 nightly and still have the DHCP problem when connecting via wifi. It tries several times but cannot obtain an IP address. Static IP works fine. Also, going into airplane mode and back out lets it reconnect.
[Motorola Photon 4G] cybik:
darn it.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Airwolf79:
Does charging in the Motorola Cardock not work, or am I missing a setting somewhere?
[Motorola Photon 4G] cybik:
Never had it, I can't tell. Does it work or not?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Airwolf79:
I think it was more user error. My cig lighter charger was the issue. It is working now.

Im really loving this rom now. My absolute favorite part is being able to add an app to the lockscreen. I added the camera to mine. I've used other lockscreens that had this feature, but they are usually laggy. This one has no lag at all. The camera opens within 1 second. That was my biggest complaint with Blur. When I wanted to take a picture of something, by the time I got the camera opened it was usually too late. Thanks Cybik.!
[Motorola Photon 4G] jam97:
I'm using the last nightly build ,it's really fast, every thing open very fast , also Gps reception is very fast,

The emmc and Sdcard mounting works great for my music player and gallery.

I like the"use external sd card" option in the camera app.

Battery live is very good.

But I've noticed that the galley sorting is from the oldest to the newest.

Thank you cybik so much.
[Motorola Photon 4G] WiredAnim:
Loving the Rom runs great on AT&T GoPhone, One thing I'm wondering about but can't find any details in the forum is the Flashlight toggle in the notification bar. Its listed be grayed out. The App that is pre-installed and works great but I love having that short-cut. Any suggestions or ideas would be welcomed.
[Motorola Photon 4G] jam97:
Do you mean flashlight widget?

if you mean it ,you can add torch widget.
[Motorola Photon 4G] atroph:
Nope he means in the pull down menu. AFAIK that has been broken forever. The torch widget and the power control widget work fine. Dunno why the pulldown is broke.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Acvice:
I've found setting a gesture to the app works nearly as fast. Mine happens to be pinch-in.

Couple of things

FYI- jokers force roaming zip works with this rom. It's a must have for me where I work, I tried it today and I'm roaming like a boss.

I'm having issues setting my ringtones. Every time I go to select them with the Android system it causes a hot boot. If I select them with es file manager they work fine but the system causes the reboot. This is the same for notification sounds.

Other than that small issue everything us smooth as ever. I come back to this when my ics/jb set up starts acting up.

[Motorola Photon 4G] Equalizir:
Could someone post a link to jokers force roaming zip?
[Motorola Photon 4G] bullfrog527:
Hmmn, I wonder what the issue is. Maybe I'll re flash the zip and see if that's the issue. I did flash jokers 1.4 kernel for CM7, that might be it

Sent from my mof'd up MoPho
[Motorola Photon 4G] Acvice:
I'm not sure that would be the issue as I have used jokers kernel a few times in the past with cm7. However, you might want to consider using the stock kernel as it is much better on battery life, more stable, and the entire roms runs a bit smoother even though you're getting 400 less mhz.
[Motorola Photon 4G] bullfrog527:
I re-flashed the latest nightly and am still getting the hot boot wheh I try to use "android system" to select ring and notification tones.

Does anyone know where I can find a dark themed gapps? I like the black background with light text. Everything I search for is for ics/jb

Sent from my smoothly stable CM7

here's the force roam zip. I couldn't find it on jokers site
[Motorola Photon 4G] Acvice:
Try the MinimalBread theme from the store. A lot of the gapps as well as CM specific apps are black/white and/or black/white/blue themed. Also, try out the full Morph zip located here to theme the missing parts like lockscreen. If you are wondering the easiest way to apply morphs, i would suggest zipthemer from the market. Works perfectly.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Airwolf79:
Anyone else getting wake lock issues? Mine seems to have started after setting up my corporate email account, but I need that account. I'm losing like 15-20% battery life over night while sleeping with wifi and data turned off. Any solutions?

Just wondering on the force roaming...do you roam a lot? I ask because with Sprint I don't believe it's unlimited. I could be wrong. I have an issue at work where I get no signal but my phone says something about roaming turned off...
[Motorola Photon 4G] Airwolf79:
The center clock was only an option in Thekraven's version of cm7 from jokersax Page. I've since flashed Cybik's nightly to see if it fixed the wakelock. It didn't.

It's not a rogue app. That's Juice Defender, and it has only helped my battery life. Nothing else unusual in my battery usage, just over 500 mb's of free ram.

I deleted a couple email accounts and verified that is causing the wakelock. Here's a screenshot after deleting the accounts. I tried every setting possible with sync in the email accounts, but the wakelock wouldn't go away. No one else is experiencing this?
[Motorola Photon 4G] bullfrog527:
Right now, I'm basically roaming from 6am to 4-5pm every day. It's only 1x speed so it's kinda slow but I get calls and texts just fine. Haven't had any issue with sprint yet, I kinda want out if my contract so if they cancel my line I'm ok with it. My wife's line is up in Dec and we want to go to Verizon, pay the same for way better coverage with lte where we live.

[Motorola Photon 4G] badgett:
2X battery is a far better app than Juice Defender in my opinion. It helps me save alot of battery when running CM7.

can I safely assume that the cm-7-20120909-NIGHTLY-sunfire.zip gonna work on GSM network?

FYI I live in Indonesia and planning to use the rom as my daily usage..

TYVM
[Motorola Photon 4G] Equalizir:
I don't think Verizon will be as cheap as Sprint but I could be wrong. If their equally priced I'd consider switching also.:)
[Motorola Photon 4G] bullfrog527:
I've priced Verizon, and for two lines sharing 4gb and a third messaging phone its 180/mo. That's what I'm paying on sprint for 3 smart phones. I've gone over 4gb of day only once in the last year between my two main phones, and that was 95% me, so I think 4gb will be enough. Plus I get dropped calls, no texts, and worse than dialup data speeds on sprint.

I can get a Verizon family plan with 2 smart phones and 6gb of data for 160 plus I get 22% discount thru my job. It sucks also because my wife gets calls from clients and sometimes she doesn't get their calls or texts.

[Motorola Photon 4G] WiredAnim:
Worked great on GSM for me. If you have issues be sure to check your "Wireless & Network" settings and Mobile Network to make sure GSM is selected. I had better data speeds with AT&T prepaid then I ever got with Sprint (minus anytime I was connected to 4G, which is scarce) You'll love this rom, one of the most stable for the Photon and tons of great features!
[Motorola Photon 4G] atroph:
Only domestic (USA) GSM doesn't work out of the box after flashing the nightlies.

You will need to flash the kddi radio to get domestic GSM working.

The photon has always worked on non US GSM.

Try flashing any Blur based rom like Homebase, then update your prl and profile. That worked for me, although I'm on cdma network with Sprint. It should work though.

[Motorola Photon 4G] havlaz:
still doesnt work... maybe i need a new radio?
[Motorola Photon 4G] Airwolf79:
So was it working at all after updating BOTH the PRL and profile while u were still on the blur rom? If it wasn't, why did u go back to cm7? If it was working, how did u go back to cm7, did u wipe all and reflash it, or did u just restore a backup?
[Motorola Photon 4G] havlaz:
it didnt workd at all.

i got back to cm by flashing

1FF-sunfire-user-2.3.4-4.5.1A-1_SUN-198_7-CM-release-keys-signed-Sprint-US

then unlocking the phone again , the cmw , the cm7

(i had 198_6 before, i was thinking mabye this will help)
[Motorola Photon 4G] Airwolf79:
Hmm, maybe some others can chime in then. I would try flashing the blur rom again. Make sure u do a full wipe/factory data reset, then go to mounts and format system and data, then wipe cache and dalvik, then flash the blur rom.
[Motorola Photon 4G] bullfrog527:
