I'm using 0.7 and noticed this:

- 3D gallery closes it self and reloads. It worked fine in other releases. I've +400 photos in my sd card. It breaks when making thumbs (i guess, because not all photo thumbs appears).

- Battery issue: I've discharged my phone complete yesterday and leave it changing during night, started in recovery and wiped battery stats. Rebooted and noticed that even charger was still plugged, the battery was dischanging. Turned the phone off, did a battery wipe again, unplugged charger and did a reboot. After phone on, plugged charger again and system shows that charger was plugged. Maybe a battery driver issue here?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kumakun:
i had aslo issues yesterday with a car adapter.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Rugga:
IIRC there is a bug if you reboot the phone while it is charging.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] SnowmanDK:
My experiences so far (been using 0.7 since day 0 of release).

Stability: Flawless (not even one FC!).

Speed: Better that ever (even over time).

Battery: Usage is good. I can use GPS for more than an hour per day + several calls + sms'es, and STILL have 50%+ battery left.

Recharging: Flawed. From what I have found out, it only occurs when using a non-original charger. USB via PC is ok and also original charger.

GPS: Perfect. I get 8-10 satellites locked in less than 15 seconds.

Browser: Somewhat flawed. Problems with soft-keybord disappears when trying to enter something in fields. This is not always though.

Market: Some apps (both free and payed) seems to have vanished. Restoring using my Titanium Backup, made them turn up in Market.

Result: I can only recommend this rom. I know it can be a nightmare, getting it started in a stable manner, but it CAN be done :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cypis:
Klothius I cant wait to JIT update :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] iivanovic:
Hi there

I have been using the 0.7 for days, since it was published

My usage experiences are given bellow:

Stability: Overall stability is perfect, no FCs, crushes, unexpected behaviours occurred

Speed: Speed is more optimized, so apps are starting faster (I noticed Call log starting is extremely faster than previous version), Power Control widget loads faster than before

Bugs and issues:

- Camera app is doing restarts by itself, reboot phone is required

- Some apps on market cannot be found (even if u change parameters by using Market Access)

- HTC Sense has been restarted several time those days

- SMS length more than 2 sms'es cannot be sent as one (yeah, I know, it's known general issue :) )

- Some battery optimizer tweaks should be required (I have 66% left from 7:00am (it's 3:5 pm right now) :) and I'm doing my work job, so, I used a phone for two messages and 2 times turned Mobile network on to check Microsoft Exchange (summary, 2 min of usage. Mobile network data was disabled constantly

- SD card replacing: After sd card is plugged out, phone cannot be woken anymore - reboot required (it happened in previous roms too)

- Battery charging: After battery becomes empty and phone is turned off and charger plugged in, when phone is turned on, battery is not charging and it's such strange

Summary: As it's written down already on the 1st post - We're almost there :)

Great work!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] markojan:
hi ...

i have a strange issue with contacts , the gmail contacts are all with images , but the phone refuses to download all , only some are present with contacts on the phone. i do a sync and everytime the same .... i check the contacts on gmail and its all fine, pictures are there. any ideas or solutions ... ?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] iivanovic:
Hmmm, well, I keep all my contacts to Gmail too, doing the sync thing

I've got few contacts images, not for everyone, but sync works fine, pictures are shown...(I mean:e.g. From 300 contacts, I have 20 with picture included and all pictures are shown

Try to change a picture to some contact, do sync again and just after check your contact on Gmail, to make sure what kind of behavior is presented
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] markojan:
I've changed some photos online and only they are synced back to phone,others with pictures online still remain without one in phone contacts....
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tung987:
Hi,

I found a bugs by charging the phone, when i turn off the computer and plug the usb cable to my phone, its nothing happen (no charging at all). So, after i turn on the computer my phone can be charging again.:confused:
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kumakun:
it's not a bug it's a feature ! totally normal no power going out of a pc when it's off
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] MMartins:
yes lots of times, that is an magic issue! it goes 1 line to the top if your sms in on line 2 or to the sms if you are on line 1...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] MMartins:
for me 0.6 worked better... this people app constantly re-starting is anoying! i need to to the same thing 3 or 4 times until it actually works!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] barkleyc:
me too.

I have the same problem. I use windows 7. The USB internet sharing is always working at first. However, after 1-2 days, it failed and is unable to turn off. Of course, I can't turn it on!!:mad:
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] iivanovic:
Well, I guess that changing every single photo doesn't sound like an alternative to be taken :)

I really don't have idea what it could be

Try to resync with ur google account, clear data in People application and try again.

Anyway, is it possible that some kind of compatibility makes this issue to be shown, or, I don't know, unsupported file format of image itself...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] klothius:
Well you won't really be delighted as it's still a lot buggy. I mean...I'm using it from the start of 0.7 with anysoftkeyboard (yeah, it is FCing from time to time, the keyboard I mean, but that also helps really with JIT :p)

Camera is buggy...a know thing :) Sense is reloading, but I would guess it's got something to do with both friendstream and newswidget....they're both using something that seems to be dieing out. I'll see what I can do with it, but nothing much to promise.

Apps in the market should have appeared, but they did not...so there's obviously something wrong....will check up on it before the new build.

For battery life issue you're facing, there's not much I can do really as it's most certainly something to do with some of your apps is doing that.

SDCARD issue is, again, something to do with the apps you're using. Some app needs your sdcard present so it can write data and thus when getting the card out, it'll freeze. I took my card out for a few times for now with 0.7 and every time it was fine getting it back and using it again :)

That charging problem occurs with the newest kernel and it works just fine when connected to a pc via usb, but seems to get broken after a reboot when connected via normal charger.

What thing exactly ? I have made some changes to the overall system now and I'll need that tested, so I need to try to reproduce the problem you're having :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] markojan:
Yeap, no way i am going to change photos on all 400 contacts :)

Strange is that all works flawlessly on cyanogen rom. I've had the same issue on older htc vanilla roms... maybe it's something about restrictions, too much data on first download....beats me...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hedcayce:
Have you considered the possibility it's displaying pictures from your social networking accounts(facebook in particular) instead of your google account?

I know mine does when I have both...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Deviser:
Would it be possible to correct it? Is everyone suffering from this or is just some devices?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] markojan:
I have none of social networks setup on phone,pure google contacts...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cypis:
Klothius did you saw froyo with sense ? There is thread in nexus forum. Maybe when owner of this mysterious ROM will share with us you will be able to port it to Magic :)

Here is the video http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtube_gdata&v=PEF-U_eBrEQ
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hedcayce:
Ok, did you go into application settings and clear info on contact storage, delete memory card files and re sync?

If so, I'm fresh outta ideas.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] :
People with battery problem, fully charge your battery and then wipe battery stats...

@klothius, why you don't put this info on 1st post?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] markojan:
ammm... did it ... the same .. contacts wiped, then resync and the same thing as before ... it's a HTC rom thing . nothing to do with smoki ...

it's like, every time i do a wipe of contact storage and resync it downloads a photo for a different contact, never the whole contact list...

and for those who had trouble and freezes with sense UI , transfer home to ADW launcher, much better working ...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] klothius:
Becase I planned and still am to make a whole how to and such...I just did not had time because school and now I took a few days off to rest a bit and enjoy myself a bit as I am awaiting on capy's multilanguage pack.....so until it gets there, I will continue this trend as I need a lot of catching up to do with myself lol :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] klothius:
I hope he does leaks this....and when he does, it'll be coming here for sure. I am waiting for some device with SUI to get 2.2, but the main problem here is that probably devices that get it first will have much bigger resolutions....which would mean that we'd need to scale all those images down to be able to get them play nice with our screen...and that's where I'm not very good at....pictures and stuff :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cinek1987cinek:
FROYO with SENSE = Bleeeeeeeeeeeeee :eek:

Pure 2.2 please :D heh

P.S. 0.7 works great, but sometimes I have to reboot the phone to work GPS :p

Thanks :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] markojan:
did you run the EU_GPS script ?

the default settings in ROM are for USA users and if you are in Europe you have to run the gps script to fix it ...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] djUniversal:
WHY WOULD SOMEONE DO THIS?!?!?!?

I can't believe he would dangle this in front of us like that. Froyo I'm running now is cool esp. chrome-to-phone! w/Sense will be perfect!

How does Google think they will stop HTC from being this innovative in Gingerbread?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] finalreality:
I'm having a strange problem with the camera.

When I take a photo the camera gets "locked" and consumes a lot of battery (seen in battery settings, it starts rising in the rank and gets to first after 30 mins or so without touching the camera app again).
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cinek1987cinek:
No....

THANKS :) I try :p
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] markojan:
it should fix a satelite each time within 10sec max ...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crisvillani:
Just a question klothius do you think you will have an update out by Wednesday going away for 7 weeks ( no internet : / ) might need to downgrade to 0.6.13 just to be safe lol : D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] tung987:
I can using to charge my mp3 player with my desktop computer turn off, so this is not a problem. I can version 6.0 or lower to charge my phone with computer off.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jaba78:
is possible the problem is friendstream?also fb sink with this in incomplete.only a little % of friend are showed
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Isilmalith:
This is a great Rom, but I've got a serious battery issue.

24:39 uptime

23:34 awaketime

There is something wrong, but what is it? Any hints?

I had no such problems with robomix, but it caused quite some freezes.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] gfjakobs:
Seen same issue myself twice today :-(

Love this rom, but can't use it if "die in sleep" issue continues.

Will give it a day or two more to see...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] blejach:
In my case its 21:17 uptime and 12:03 awake time...

it left me with 15% of the battery charge after 12 hours of use...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] klothius:
What do you mean by pushing them, they close? Like opening them and they do nothing ? :D

For battery, there really isn't much to do here as we don't officially have kernel for this radio and android version so this is the best we've got so far and I must say it's quite an improvement over previous one.

If you are using Bluetooth, that is a known issue which will be fixed soon. If not, then there is something keeping your phone awake. Over the night (8h) with internet off, I get maybe one percent taken off battery level.

I didn't experience any problem of that sort whatsoever from the start of this rom, so would you mind pressing home + menu + back button when that happens...then you'll get one vibration and after some time two more. Then go to sdcard/bugreports and upload it somewhere or just paste it on pastebin and pm me with a link.

Well if those numbers mean hours, then any 2.1 rom will kill your battery with 12h of screen on and phone use :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Isilmalith:
After some reboots, the problem seems to have fixed itself?

5min awake to 1h 30min uptime now.

I'll keep the ROM, as it is the best 2.1 sense so far :) great work!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] MMartins:
when will be the notification led problem be fixed?

i'll wait until there to update :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] klothius:
Probably when official 2.1 comes out as we currently don't have required drivers for it to work ok. We do have HeroLED app which I will test this week and see if it drains battery like it did and if it's ok, I'll include the free version in ROM. Also anyone willing to help me could also install that app from market and see if there are battery issues.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] MMartins:
can't the drivers from the 2.1 w/o sense be used? or from the previouse 1.5 sense rooms? how can I program work and the drivers for notifications don´t? (SO programming is not my best thing :P )

but what don't work is only the led near the earphone or the backlight from the keys and the flashing trackball notification don't work too?

thanks for your work ;)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] klothius:
Well no 2.1 rom for our device has LED nor BG light on keys working and we cannot use from 1.5 as they are not the same as for the 2.1 :/ Trackball flashes, but I don't notice it much so I don't know how much of it is really normal. But, as I said, HeroLED app gives us back some of that usability, but last version was too much of a battery drainer so it is removed currently. I'll test it within this week to see if there are any changes in this new version and if there is improvement, I'll include it. If you wish to try it yourself, it is on the market.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] scylla69:
Hi,

for those having problems with F S

Stickman89's fix for friend stream also works in smoki rom:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=6309292&postcount=117
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] MMartins:
weird, I could swear that when the first 2.0 roms came out (w/o sense) I tested one the leds were working.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] klothius:
Thanks for report, I was waiting for that. Will certainly include it in update. Thanks Stickman :)

Well they work. But only in green :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] MMartins:
for me that's more than enought! :)

they work in green on your release?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] klothius:
Of course ;)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] MMartins:
so what's the big deal? :p

when I read no notification leds I tought that they won't blink at all, as long as it blinks on a new sms/mail and missed call no matter in what colour it is, it is fine for me :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] klothius:
K, I'll put up on the first page that only green ones are working....maybe more people will think that they are not working at all :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] MMartins:
now I can try this room :)

the backlight of the keys not working is a much bigger problem than the lack of notifications different than green! ;)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] klothius:
If you haven't seen your keys light for some time as I haven't...when I installed HeroLED and saw them I was like OMG! I HAVE LIGHT AND IT'S SO CLEAR NOW!! So don't underestimate the background keys xD
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] MMartins:
that was what I've said! :) that the background keys are much more important than the leds notification if we have the green at least!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] klothius:
The fair answer is....I don't know lol....it depends on capy and I'm doing some more test for memory and speed and will possibly need another half a day for testing and fixing(I hope not for fixing) after I've built new build, so if capy delivers this tomorrow...then it'll most likely be out on tuesday.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] klothius:
Probably again an issue with a driver in kernel, but in most cases you don't get power through usb ports when the phone is off...yes, you can tweak this, but just sayin' :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crisvillani:
thank God : D

Need my fix of Roms before I leave lol jks
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] alistairfang:
I found another issue but not sure it's only me.

my camera worked for the first 2 days after flashed 7, and i started having FC, couldn't open the camera. I flashed 7 again, and after 2 days the same thing happened.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] klothius:
Tried a simple reboot ? :p
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] svpb:
Running great with some bugs, and a big one

Upto today

only had issues with:

- if using a bunch of apps withing 10 min slows the phone down to a crawl

- gmail will fc and reopen about 5 times then will run fine untill left idle again

- I feel that browsing on rogers Hspda is slower over 6.8

Today:

Rogers nailed me with the no Data access because of 911, I dont know if it was a matter of time or what. they told me it was cuz of the Build number. Ive been running the smoki rom since 0.5

if other rogers customers are running this rom watch out, change the build identifier or sign the waiver
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crisvillani:
They seem to have gotten me too :@

Guess I have to have a long talk with Rogers Customer support tmmrw yay : /

Edit: is there a way to change the build number but not really changing it? Maybe somewhere in the build.prop?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] svpb:
Yes this is what i found:

adb pull /system/build.prop

***make a backup copy and edit the file***

adb push build.prop /system/build.prop

adb shell reboot

The actual changes you need to make to the file are:

ro.build.description=3.05.631.7 CL#118917 release-keys

ro.build.changelist=118917

ro.product.ua=

ro.build.fingerprint=rogers/htc_magic/sapphire/sapphire:1.5/CUPCAKE/118917:user/release-keys

ro.build.display.id=DRC92 3.05.631.7

[ thank bjtheone ]

*********************************

Just got off the phone with rogers, the online waiver did not accept my IMEI number, so they have opened a ticket.

from the tech, they check manual tickets once a week

*********************************

Phones that are deactivated are rescanned after 72 hours for proper build.prop
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] *child:
I thought Rogers only looked at the radio version. Can they now assess the build number as well?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] iivanovic:
Today I took very important picture...but when I had taken a look to the gallery, I saw some stupid picture with green man and phone on it instead photo that was captured :(

Yeah, I know that camera issue is known, but I've thought this should be reported either ;)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kumakun:
i have the same bug sometimes
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] klothius:
As already said, when taking a picture, leave it on a preview screen of the taken picture for a few seconds and do not leave the camera so soon.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kumakun:
i had this issues with other camera software
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] markojan:
as i understand , this is a more-less vanilla rom from HTC , and as i remember they've been delaying the 2.1 update for over 6months due to some issues with older phones. Now they've updated hero to 2.1 and the issues are comming up ... nothing to do with smoki rom etc. just with HTC and buggy coding .... because cyanogen has managed to make his 2.1 rom work almost flawlessly...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] klothius:
Well that's great, but then you have another problem which is that if google re-checks you, it'll see your fingerprint and you're probably gonna be left with 1.5 apps only available through the market.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] cypis:
So if you will need help with pic write to me ;)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] marcimix:
Don't reset phone just shoutdown in the red handset :D of course with activated gps :)

So I'm waiting for 2.2 in HTC legend. It the same resolution like HTC Magic, right ? :p
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Stevak:
Still on the issue of the car charger ...

For those who use the Magic as a navigator, it is normal that with the new rom based on the new OC kernel is not possible to do so ...

This could be a possible solution?

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=7079995&postcount=317

Thanks.

Stevak.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] desmphil:
I have the exact same problem. Damn Rogers, i will always hate canadian telephony services.

For the record,

It is actually worst than just the market not being able to see apps, some widget stop working and disappear from my desktop which are probably not compatible on 1.5.

As an Example, the "Mobile" widget is no longer available. Others are not showing in the list anymore.

Grrrrrr

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] silvertag:
Same here... lost data connection yesterday. This just pisses me off :mad:.. i'm about to pay the bundle to get out of my contract if they can't deliver 2.1 soon enough.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] markojan:
hm..... do a full backup of phone , install Cyanogen MOD and test the GPS with it , see if it helps , restore old backup and use the phone as it was. the gps i agps , assisted gps meaning it uses network and internet for quick fixing the satelites....
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crisvillani:
Well I got them to turn my data on again just a representative online to give me a network refresh he asked me for the build number so I gave him the old one it seemed to have worked for now , but if they keep checking this is just a temporary fix : /
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] klothius:
Try reflashing the radio with gps turned on ;)

Sorry for the delay, but I haven't gotten the Chinese language pack, so I'm still waiting on it. Capy had some more important stuff to do, so he'll be finishing this as soon as he can....but unfortunately I do not know when exactly will that happen....he said it'll be this week :D

Did you had problems with 0.6 ? If no, then did you had problems with 0.5.5? I might be able to solve it, but I need to know this.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crisvillani:
ya i looked back in the thread and the last time i had the issue was in 0.5.5.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] klothius:
Yup...probably because I had build.prop in there similar to the one now...I'll revert back to 0.6 one in 0.7.5....but I don't know when will it come :(
