I'm having the same intermittent data issues on alpha 5 that others have mentioned. I re-upgraded to stock 1.63 with the PG59IMG.zip in fastboot, unlocked w/ HTCDev, flashed recovery, flashed CM9, and I'm still having the issue. I had Revolutionary s-off and that stayed throughout the process.

Note: I flashed wildchild's MikMIUI and had the same data issues, so it might not be rom-specific. I'm on stock 1.63 right now and data works fine. I'll try updating hboot with Juopunutbear's custom hboot and see if that works.

Freek200 how did you make your battery last on cm7. It is a battery hog .... good rom nonetheless
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] FreeK200:
Oh yeah, that's one thing I've glanced over. I was just comfortable using CM7 because I had everything set up the way I liked it, didn't want to upgrade and spend hours restoring files and what not. I just woke up yesterday, and said screw it, today is the day, and updated. And now that I think about it, battery life has truly been phenomenal. I watched an episode of Game of Thrones on CM9, and it barely brought me down to 88% battery (According to Mobaplayer).

But I made it last via an Anker Battery. It wasn't abysmal, I guess. I never had the phone on stock long enough to get a feel for how long the battery lasted, and after playing with other Android phones (This phone is my first Android device, before I ran on a Blackjack 2), I knew that I wasn't going to be getting stellar battery life no matter what I did. I just guess I thought CM7's battery life was normal.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] gtmaster303:
Guys, I think I'm getting quite a big battery drain...

Phone was used for 1 hour and 9 minutes as GPS and not much else, and it barely lasted the day. I actually had to turn my phone off to conserve battery
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] seansc144:
;) oh ok because I use to run that mod too. That was the only downside to it.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] masilver:
Similar battery issues

I've had similar issues, but seemingly random. I upgraded to an Anker batter and it's helped a great deal. I can usually get 24 hours, but sometimes it will drain quick, in about 8-10 hours. They battery usually heats up as well. I haven't been able to pinpoint the problem. I *think* there is a run away app, but it's battery drain isn't showing up in the settings. Oddly enough, Juice Defender didn't seem to help.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] skimike02:
So, this was working great for about 24 hours. Then I was playing with the alarm clock. The phone went into a bootloop. Removed battery and rebooted. For some reason it had changed the wallpaper. I went to change it back, and the phone turned off. Bricked with a red light for the trackpad. A few tries of taking the battery out, replacing, switching batteries, trying to boot to recovery, etc. Now I can't even get a trackpad light. Any suggestions appreciated.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] AgentCherryColla:
Can't tell if your trolling... Fresh install, you had to have one F'd up download. Try downloading from a PC. Clean install, wait 10 minutes before even unlocking. Then reboot, and set up your google. Wait 5 minutes. Then reboot. Then set up.

Try turning off your wifi, it is definitely NOT going into low-power mode.

Usually, when the wifi is set to "always on", it will go into a very low power consumption mode (if supported by your AP). If you have something running that is holding the wifi on high power mode, it will suck your battery just like what your screenshots are showing. Might want to have a look into what is causing that.

For reference, on my wife's doubleshot, a charge on Friday, with airplane mode ON (radio/BT off) and wifi ON (always on), it will run through the ENTIRE WEEKEND with a battery drop of only about 10% -- there is no cell service where we go on weekends, but there is high speed wireless internet -- go figure. That is with k9 mail running and accepting push from THREE IMAP servers.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] gtmaster303:
Wifi is what my phone runs on. I need to keep it on, because I don't have a data plan. Are you saying that only certain wifi hotspots support a low power consumption mode? When at work, I'm connected to a cable provider public wifi that requires a login (such as xfinity, comcast, optimum, time warner cable, etc.)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] skimike02:
yeah, not trolling. I did download from PC. Didnt wait 10 minutes before unloking. I'd like to try it the way you outline, but as I can't boot into recovery even... Tried charging the battery overnight (not in the phone) and the phone unplugged. 7 hours. Tried again this morning to boot into recovery or regular, and nothing. The trackpad light comes on very briefly sometimes when the phone gets plugged in or the battery gets put in. I'm quite confused, since it was working great all day, and I was just using regular settings when it died. note-I did try installing google now as outlined on xkcd.

edit: md5 checks out
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] karri0n:
Try everything you can to get the thing to turn on. Take out SIM and try to power up, try plugging in without battery or SIM, hold power + volumedn to try to get into HBOOT. Unfortunately the behavior you describe regarding it just shutting off while trying to change the wallpaper sounds like something hardware related got borked. The good news is, if it will not turn on at all, T-Mo might not be able to see that you have an unlocked bootloader when you send it in for warranty replacement.

If only someone could hack the wifi calling apk to take out the check so that you can turn on wifi calling with airplane mode, we could probably start getting battery life like an old nokia dumbphone.

USB mass storage not working, no automount and MTP's not working too

Hi there,

I installed Alpha 5 a few days ago (before that I was running RubiX Sensation v4.0 and before that I had cm7 running on my Desire Z) and the mass storage isn't quite working (Win7x64). Sometimes my SD shows up in My Computer and sometimes it doesn't (then there's only the drive letter, but no access to it). Also the file transfer and the general access to folders on the SD are slower than they should be (from my experience). Sometimes windows explorer even doesn't respond anymore. MTP's not working at all.

Besides, I have to activate the mass storage mode everytime in my phone, although the box is checked at Settings->Storage->USB Connection. Usually (I mean with RubiX and cm7) the phone activated mass storage mode by itself. How can I get it do that automatically? Furthermore the mass storage mode sometimes deactivates itself, I don't really know why.

Thanks in advance for your help!

I had to reinstall the drivers to get my computer to mount my sd card while plugged into the phone.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] FrenicX:
Alright, so I've been running A5 for about a week now and I can say now that I love it. There are a few small quirks in there still, but over all it's been great. I do have to mention though, that the battery drain has been horrendous. The phone will stay at 100% for a couple hours if I don't use it, that's with wifi and mobile networks on.. but after use it for the first time, for around 15-20 minutes, it seems like the battery can drop to 50% within the hour, it drains with the screen off and the percentages tell me that 85% has gone to the screen.. so I'm not sure what's going on there.

Some other small bugs seem to be with the browser, the touch screen has a kind of lag when scrolling through the pages. I can also confirm the speakerphone issue with new calls and making calls. Not a big deal though, toggling on and back off fixes it.

Thanks a lot for this korny, and all who have helped me with their threads and posts.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Ziida:
I've had problems where the screen wouldn't turn back on and I had to do a battery pull to get it back. Anyone have a comparable experience?

I also think I've had the "screen" battery drain issues mentioned above.

sometimes my flashlight doesn't like to turn on for a while. I'm using Torch and Nexus Torch. When one doesn't work the other doesn't either, so I imagine it has something to do with the Camera being busy or hung..?

Other than that, what a ROM! Very close to being perfect! (I miss Cyan 7's option to turn down music during notifications rather than pausing it, but it seems no one really does that anymore)

edit: oh yea! I forgot I have problems with my GPS too. it doesn't find my location... maybe ever. It worked on previous ROMs, too- so it's probably not hardware. I am in Canada however. Might that make a difference?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Shani Ace:
Ah yeah, forgot to mention that: I tried that already. Funny thing is, I deinstalled the driver again and I checked "delete driver", then I had to reboot and mass storage worked, although there was no driver installed. ^^

But now it doesn't work again... besides I still don't get why the phone would'n automount when connected to the PC. Does your phone automatically activate the mass storage like it's supposed to?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] RazoE:
No, I have to click on the green Android on my phone when I want to mount storage (Which is the way I like it).
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Crestus:
I have been able to reproduce this issue on occasion as well, which is a reported issue with the Face Unlock feature. If you're using Face Unlock, you can disable it to eliminate this minor glitch.

Otherwise, I whole heartidly agree, amazing ROM and kudos to Kornyone and tbalden (and all of TeamDS) on some amazing work! I'm gonna try to hit the repo this weekend with my Fedora box and do my best to contribute as well. :-D

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] infernodemon2005:
Yay... looking forward to it. My sister loves stealing my phone for facebook and the camera lol...
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Shani Ace:
Ah okay. Well then I guess it's meant to be that way (although I'm pretty sure it wasn't that way with cm7).

FEATURE REQUEST: Would be nice to have an option where you can decide whether it automounts or not.

I use the USB-connection only to put files on the SD card, so for me it would be more useful if it would automount.

But still I have to find out what's causing my phone or PC not to show the mass storage in Win7.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ac3theone:
try reinstalling the drivers for the phone
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] AgentCherryColla:
ICS only uses MTP, not mass storage. I'm not certain CM7 had an auto mount option , but again I haven't used CM7 since we had ICS. There are many apps that will auto mount your SD to the PC. Google Play Link
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Ziida:
Odd- since I'm not using Face Unlock, just the simple Slide Unlock. I do however have a screen lock delay of 1 second after the screen shuts off. I wonder if this could be related?* I guess I could test it by turning it back to 0, but it might be a few weeks of no issues before I'm willing to call it "fixed" since it's not common.

(maybe something along the lines of "simultaneous" runs of code, of locking and of... something that would keep it from locking... or turning the screen off or...)

Does this mean 1080p, too? :D:D

Eta on the release?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Crestus:
Interesting, I appreciate the insight and never feel bad to admit if I'm wrong. I'm curious to play around with that setting myself as well to see if there's a connection. :beer:
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] tbalden:
No 1080p yet. This is about the camera getting stuck.

OK, I'm still having problems sending and receiving MMS/ picture messages with CM9. I have been through the forums and can't seem to find an answer to my issue.

I have tried different apn settings, clean re-install, new download to computer and then to the phone and still no go.

Is anyone else experiencing anything like this and have you found a solution?

I'm back to virtuous Prem. For now.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dhkr234:
It is a network routing issue, which I've documented here:

Unfortunately, I don't have a fix for you, just a more complete understanding of the problem.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] JtotheC:
Do you have the Android tools installed on your PC? Specifically adb/fastboot? If so, one thing you can try is to take out your battery, and plug your phone into the PC with the USB cable, and use the Power + Volume Down combo. Then see if your phone shows up using either 'adb devices' or 'fastboot devices'. If so, then you can take it from there to start figuring out what's going on with your phone, and/or reflash images.

not sure if this has been reported already but im on a clean install. i ran into a small issue trying to route the call audio to the BT, everytime selected for the audio to go to my BT it would go ono speaker and when i selected for the audio to return to the headset it stayed on speaker. only way i fixed it was to turn off BT and turn it back on. should i post a logcat?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] onebornoflight:
I've had both - i just flashed virtuous primadonna because i got tired of my screen going black and my phone locking itself everytime i slid it open or closed actually... And the gps thing was actually fixed by checking under gps settings to use the internal antenna vs a bluetooth or external one (for me anyway).
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] ac3theone:
if i have my bt connected and i make a call the sound will come from the speakerphone instead of through the bt. simply selecting the bt makes the audio come from to the bt.

Hey hapa:mad: system tuner is a good tool to control voltage being used on each CPU frequency :)
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] gtmaster303:
I don't think the CM kernel supports undervolting...
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] SKAm69:
I leave standard governor Ondemand, but set the cores to 192-1242, which is enough even for such games as GTA 3 with graphics on high. I also undervolt it with System Tuner, but I'm not sure if it works, because I set it to 800mV on 192 and till 1025mV on 1.24 (it was 1100 mV before), which is pretty low voltage, but it seems the phone doesn't get so burning hot anymore.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Thurge:
I installed this ROM and it is pretty sweet but I'm having a problem. My previous Rom was the Rubix nonsense and it allowed me to install just about any app on google play. This CM9 rom won't let me install my favorite app, Zynga Poker. It says "This item is not compatible with your device." which I know isn't the case because it ran before without issue. I have tried 1. Clearing the cache and data on the Play app. 2. Changing my LCD density both up to 320 and down to 160 (the default is 240 which is supposed to work) 3. I also used market enabler to fake verizon and t-mobile as my providers (my actual provider is Simple Mobile.) None of this has worked. Later I found the app called Rom Toolbox Lite which let me change my device name from "HTC MyTouch_4g_Slide" to "HTC Doubleshot" and still it is listed as incompatible. I know the app runs on my phone (as I have become addicted to it over the past several weeks on the previous ROM) but some setting is not allowing me to install it. If anybody has an idea on how I correct this issue I'd appreciate it.

Thanks,

T.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] aawillma:
I restore Zynga Poker from Titanium Backup every time I update to a new CM alpha and it works fine. I haven't tried to get it from the play store in a long time so I don't know if mine would work that way. I actually don't even remember what ROM I was on when I originally downloaded it, I think it's from my MyTouch 4G backups!

This may be a long and drawn out method but... make a current CM9 nand backup. Then if you restore a nand of Rubix, you should have the app there. If you don't, just download it. Now back it and any other apps you've seen a problem with up using the backup program of your choice. Titanium Backup works well in this case, even the free version. Then rewipe everything and restore your CM9 nand backup. Now you can install Zynga poker from Titanium. You don't need to restore data for the app because it's tied to a server login (trust me you don't even want to try, even without data this app is gigantic and takes forever to restore).

I have bounced between nand backups before, even without wiping, and it doesn't seem to cause any problems. Just remember if you're S-ON you're probably going to have to adb flash your boot.img partition for each restore which might be sort of cumbersome.

You have to use fastboot to push the boot.img to the phone from a computer using command prompt. Because you are S-ON, CWM won't automatically flash the kernel. You're not bricked, just needs one more step. Get the boot.img from the zip file that was downloaded for alpha 5 or whichever rom you downloaded.
