It's possible. In order to test to see if it's the new speedy sdcard stuff, you can try:

http://zenthought.org/tmp/kernel-cm-5.0.7-DS-test1-mt3g_3.5mm-2-nosdioirq.zip

The only difference from the -2 version is the command line, which has an effect on sdcard/wifi transfers.

I am not using swap and I have no ext partition either, just the default FAT32...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kbeezie:
Compcache slows things down oddly enough. I would avoid swap at the moment to make it easier to remove false positives when he's trying to identify the root of the problem. But sounds like it could be the usb driver itself.

Hi guy , i am still using the original radio and SPL code but have already installed the recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.6.2H.img into the phone .

Understand that i do not need to install any dangerSPL so does it mean that i can directly flash this CM-5 into the phone .

Yup. I've compiled a debug kernel - it won't fix any bugs, but hopefully it will give more useful debug output. It will be EXTREMELY SLOW, however, so be warned.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kbeezie:
Seems the USB/SD reboot bug is not a LE/1.2 specific bug, appears to be a CM5 bug in general, as it happens with the Nexus One as well...

http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/android/thread?tid=6f1255bb695a1c5a&hl=en

Oddly seems to link the fact of having wifi off with the crashing.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kbeezie:
Yep I can confirm that like the Nexus One CM5 is having a bug where mounting the SD and transferring will cause it to crash.

If I enable wifi , it does not crash, if I disable it, it will still continue to work fine until I reboot it with wifi already in it's 'off' state. Upon which trying to transfer without having first turned on wifi will result in a crash. It seems the SD and Wifi are on the same bus.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] vantix:
I'm getting terrible battery life with this rom. Wiped and reflashed last nightto make sure everything went right the first time, no change.

I even used setcpu to set the click speed back to the mytouch default. I unplugged at noon, it's now 5:45 and I'm at a 60% charge. No wifi, bt, gps and enough wifi to make this post. I've made 0 calls, sent 0 texts. The phone had basically been in my pocket all day. I do not have 3g in my area.

Edit....cell standby is showing as 40% of my battery use.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kbeezie:
While its not gona fix the problem (I been reading bout the same battery life of CM5 on other devices such as the G1 or the usual Magic), in SetCPU there is a battery bias under advanced setting. Which *might* help it reduce cpu load when not needed.

also can you type

adb shell uname -a

and see what returns? I'm curious bout something.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] vantix:
That command returns

Install Problems

Greetings,

Trying to get this installed on my MT3g1.2 -- Flashed 5.0.7 with no problem, but the kernel doesn't want to flash - when it goes to verify the update it says corrupt file boot.img and aborts.

Going to try redownloading the kernel again - but any thoughts?

Edit: Redownloaded all files (5.0.7, gapps pack, kernel) still hitting the error when trying to install the kernel. Am I supposed to boot 5.0.7 first and then go back into Kernel?

Thanks
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kbeezie:
How exactly are you flashing the kernel?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] txmedic:
Looks like it really was just a corrupt file. a re-download from a different link solved the problem and the install works just fine. Have had a couple of phantom reboots but the phone seems to be running smoothly now. Loving this ROM. Now if Swype would just re-open their beta.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ceas909:
sound weird how many problems people are having... Ive been running this rom since day one with no issues... and even after flashing the 2nd kernel update... how many of u having issues are runing swap, or are themed? that might be your issues... and remeber this is all experimental .. rom and kernel patch... so I don't understand why some people are complaining.. go check out cm bug reports before posting known issues...unless you providing proper documentation to help the developer.

ps not tryin to sound like a ****.. jus tryin to help keep the thread clean form unwanted and unnecessary post

Similar issue. I have the setcpu. What do I set it to?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Hollywood80:
Ok so wanna know something interesting. Remember my USB problem from yesterday that seemed to get resolved from doing a wipe and reflash? Well went to plug phone into the computer today and nothing happens again. :(
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] vantix:
I also had this problem happen when I went to type in the adb command KB was talkinng about a few posts above this. After I rebooted the phone all was fine though.

@Kbeezie.... I flashed the kernel, battery life seems *marginally* better but obviously I haven't been running it long.

I did although encounter the same problem that Binary was talking about. Anytime the phone would attempt to access the SD card with wifi off, the phone would instantly reboot. In my case however I've only had the phone reboot once because I turned wifi on.

Also if you need any logs or anything let me know. The sooner the better though as I am generally not on a computer much.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Hollywood80:
Yep a reboot fixed the USB problem. Very odd. Maybe something that needs to be looked at?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] vantix:
Personally I set it back to 384 max/245 min. You can set it to whatever you want, but running it maxed out is going to drain your battery (CM comes with it maxed.)

Same here, only bug I kept experiencing was the crash on the SD transfer, which he finally fixed moments ago. Just took a long as time to track it down. lol.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kbeezie:
Hrm on the plus side, due to zinx's hard work, CM 5.0.7-Test2 won't likely need this patch at all (LE/1.2 support built in)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Binary100100:
Are we sure of this? He better not try to take credit for it because last I assumed he really didn't give a 5hit. He even said himself that he doesn't follow the Fender issues.

it means that you are running compcache.

if you had swap you would get:

#

adb shell cat /proc/swaps

Lucky me that I bothered someone bout it on IRC eh. :D *plays with CM5*
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kbeezie:
Indeed, he updated the linke. If you need to know for sure after flashing, uname -a should be:

Linux localhost 2.6.33.3-cyanogenmod #211 PREEMPT Sun May 2 21:40:06 CDT 2010 armv6l GNU/Linux

Note how it says #211 just like the # in the zip file name.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] knny1491:
Nice, flashing now(I wondered if we could tell the difference between our downloads, having two of the kernels on my SD had me guessing for the right kernel lol)

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] setherd:
wait I'm confused!

It looks like the patch hasn't been updated. so how do we get all the fixes?

wait until test-2 is released by cyanogen?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Zinx Verituse:
The patch has been updated (20100503 is the latest set as of right now, and you can supplement it with 20100502, which contains the first set) and all of the patches are in cyanogen's github now too, so you can just pull cyanogen's kernel source.

So, use cyanogen's latest 2.6.33-ds source and you already have the patches; otherwise, grab both the patch archives (20100502 and 20100503) and apply them using "git am" or whatever.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Hollywood80:
WOuld it be safe to say we can just flash this newest kernel #211 over the one we have #185? Just don't feel like having to wipe yet again LOL!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Binary100100:
That's what i did. I did get into a habit of clearing my Dalvik-Cache first but I don't think it'll be required. But it wouldn't hurt. Nandroid backup just in case. Tip: make a /system/sd directory because nandroid + ext doesn't work anymore. If you make a /system/sd directory it'll work like it has before.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Hollywood80:
Ok so you all are going to now chastise me and tear me apart probably but I've never done a nandroid backup. Ever since I rooted the phone (even then I didn't). How do I do that LOL!

Headset button

Anyone else having issues with the Headset button with the Music app? It functions fine as long as I have the the phone "awake". I can pause and unpause fine. If it goes to standby (whatever you want to call it when the screen goes off and it locks), then I can typically pause it, but it will not unpause after that point unless I bring the screen back up and unlock it.

I saw the same issue with the Cyanogen PROPER 4.2.15.1 release for the Fender/1.2. However this worked fine in the stock rooted rom.

Can anyone else test to see if this issue affects them? I believe it affects Music and I tried MixZing and had these problems. Thanks.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jeffakajeff:
in recovery, there is an option to backup/restore

(power on phone holding home and power button)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] MassiveAttack:
Yeah, I think that's the same problem I have with Pandora. When I take the plug out, it'll "pause" (good) but then immediately "unpause" (bad), so the effect is that it doesn't stop playing when I unplug the headphones. I've tried pulling the cord fast vs. slow, and screen on vs. off. I can say that there's no reliable way to avoid this behavior right now. Odds are, actual kernel sources will be required, because the stock ROMs didn't have this behavior. I'm learning to live with it :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] vantix:
Regarding battery issues...

I flashed newest patch and played around with setcpu some more. As I stated earlier, I set the clock speeds back to the Mytouch defaults. Battery life improved somewhat, but then I changed the cpu governor to performance as opposed to on demand and the battery life has been rock solid ever since.

I unplugged at 10a, listened to a few songs on the way to work, browsed the xda forums, made a phone call and I'm just now at 99% (it's now 12: 09 pm.) Battery temperature is lower now too.

Whatever that governor module does, it makes a huge difference by putting it on performance.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Hollywood80:
So is SetCPU worth buying?

Sent from my HTC Magic using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] vantix:
Definitely in my opinion.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] vista1984:
strongly recommend.. 528mhz won't shorter your battory life in my opinion, and it brings much more smoother experience.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kbeezie:
Indeed, Also I think having a minimum of 128Mhz is smarter cuz then your phone can last longer when idle. But SetCPU is nice when you want to make sure that your casual stuff (email, etc) doesn't drain battery during the day you can easily set the CPU to something like 225mhz or such, which is fine for most of those minor things. There's also a Power Bias under advanced settings.

Problem with making/receiving calls

I flashed this rom on Saturday. Full wipe and install. I had one random reboot and that initially was the only issue I had. Once on sunday and once today, my phone stopped making all sounds. I received a call, and heard nothing. I tried to call out and again no sound. Not even the dialing sound. I rebooted the phone and it was fine. This happened again today causing me to have to reboot my phone again. Anyone else having this issue?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jeffakajeff:
Thank you

So, I have not applied the most recent patch yet, but just wanted to say:

I have been using Pandora radio for the last 6 hours, and have taken numerous phone calls....and my battery is at 58%.

Awesome :0

I did however change my SetCPU settings

CPU Governor = Performance

Running 528MHz max and 128MHz min.

I have had no reboot issues at all.

Thanks for all the hard Work guys, I shall donate :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Zinx Verituse:
It's worth noting that with #211 (the first 2010-05-03 one), enabling bluetooth will make the battery drain much slower as well. And yes, I did say enabling.

With #233, you can leave it disabled and still have no massive battery drain :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] jeffakajeff:
That is odd :)

I have not enabled bluetooth yet, so in theory, if I flash 233, I should be even better off, nice!!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kbeezie:
That would explain why I haven't had any major drain in the past, since I been keeping BT on in order to tether from time to time.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] b1u3m3th:
lol, that explains why mine was like a sieve, I only turn BT on when I need it!

Thanks for the new patch!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] b1u3m3th:
I just want to be sure, because I could not find an up to date changelog for CM 5.0.7-test2. Do we still need this kernel update?

Did Zinx's work get incorporated into official? I was happy to see cyanogen giving a lot of props to zinx.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Hollywood80:
Ok just so I'm clear I'm running #211 at the moment. Was gonna install #233. Should I not and instead install CM itself or just go ahead and install Zinx latest kernel-cm-5.0.7-DS-test1-mt3g_3.5mm-233.zip file?
