It was originally 11 went to 13...then 14 tried all three... 11 was the ONLY one that would even find APs

It wont even connect to my MT4G hotspot no security same issues

EDIT: i ran fix permissions in ROM Manager I haven't installed ANY apps and now it boot loops...

and again wipe fac dat

wipe cache

flash cm7#8

flash gbgapps

reboot skip setup wizard and go to WiFi and still gets stuck at obtaining IP address then 10 secs later disconnected

then it repeats it self obtaining ip .. disconnected... back and forth

Thank you for all the info the only thing i have not done in all of that in the past 2 hours is "fastboot erase system -w"

EDIT: ok well did the "fastboot erase system -w" flashed #8 cm the latest as of now, and gapps-gb-20110120.zip which is also the latest and same thing. :(

still no wifi

this is what it does http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Ewwn7JZ2es

and finaly logcat

WPA security or PSK idk was causing it something in the logcat and so even open with no security it wouldn't connect but with 128 and 64bit WEP it works fine...hmm

newist build is out yay!
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] JDV28:
is this 9?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] droopypillow:
so when i flash build 9. is the corrrect order the rom the the mtd boot file if i have mtd partions?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HebrewToYou:
That is correct.

If you have custom MTD partitions, *any* time you flash a new zip you need to also flash the boot.zip file as well immediately afterwards.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] thederekjay:
I am loving the new theme changer!!! :D
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] droopypillow:
Ok so i flashed build 9 then smartass kernal then mtd boot.zip.. after reboot it still says im on build 7...why
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] guitarist5122:
Thank you oh knowledgeable one. Wish we all knew the ins and out of this stuff like you. I mean, DUH, its so crystal clear
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] joshuasvt:
9 Looks promising. Still playing with it...;)
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] midnclb:
i've have read this problem in several treads and several forums "phone rebooting when dialing out" this was the only thing that was stopping me from enjoying cm 7 at its fullest. Flashing the latest radio did fix this problem on my phone and that is thanks to the newest 7.15.35.16.... radio !!!!
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] JDV28:
never had this issue with .10, make about 20 calls a day, this didnt happen with any of the 4 cm7 nightlies ive tried..

How do I remove adw launcher? I want to keep launcher2 but get rid of adw...how can i install Launcher2 without having to re-install every time i reboot??
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] xelasfx:
gapps not working

I have installed the CM7 ROMs and none of them work with gapps. It will go to the login and screen and just freeze and reboots to the loading screen on repeat. Does anybody know how to get gapps working with CM7! I love 7 because I can tether with no problems :)
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] purple1:
Uhm try downloading the latest gapps the full data wipe and then flash
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] lips2286:
New build great.

Themes awesome.

Anyone notice the left bottom page button doesn't exist? Can only tap to move screen right. Not a big deal...I just like to tap instead of swipe. Only happens in the green or blue theme system is fine.

All else green!
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] katbastard:
same with me.. how do i change themes?

Well first remove all alternate launchers and remove adw....then intall launcher2 the got to the themes app and pick one out of the three :D took me a while to figure out
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] cyanogen:
*Please* use the new radio that ChiefzReloaded posted. In the not-too-distant future, it will be required. It will also likely fix a lot of issues some people are having with connectivity. The radio for the 2.1 shipping Slide is ASS and I can pretty much crash it by looking at it the wrong way.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] MusicMan374:
I flashed the new radio, somehow it totally broke /data. Of course, didn't do a nandroid, thinking, what could flashing a radio update possible do to the ROM, but of course, something did happen. The free space was still low, so obviously stuff was still there but the file tables of the file system were all gone. Thinking it might be an MTD issue, I flashed the boot patcher again, which resulted in a boot loop. But, after like a half an hour of fixing stuff, got the new radio, and I am getting a lot better connectivity and overall signal. I used to have horrible 3G connectivity and now it's somewhat decent where I live. Used to have to be on wifi for anything to work properly.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] thederekjay:
Not sure if its a fluke or not but since flashing #9 my battery life is to good to be true... it took almost a good 45min of heavy use to get it to drop 1%??? could this be right?:confused:
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] dgrwe2512:
I have noticed the same thing, and I'm liking it!
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] atlmatt:
What am I missing to make the cyanbread theme look like the one in the selection screen??

There is so much to play with in the new ROM I get sidetracked and have yet to find the settings to change it...
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] agentg1001:
So I got gps to work from flashing the new radio, but the 2g 3g toggle in the notification bar doesn't really work
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] purple1:
@almatt

Download Launcher2.apk and install it.....then delete the adwlauncher and boom :)
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] eclipsed450:
loving CM7 so far. on build 8, just flashed newest radio. one question though: when will battery percentage be back??? i do miss that.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] atlmatt:
Can I not just rename LAUNCHER2 to ADWLAUNCHER and replace it in the ROM and flash?

I thought I read thats the easiest way?

I dont have my computer with ADB on it
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] purple1:
I used terminal emulator on my phone adb isn't needed at least it didn't for me. And try that way it might work .I haven't tried it so I wouldnt know
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] atlmatt:
What are the terminal commands?

GRRRR I need my laptop.... It's got ADB and my terminal commands cheat sheet....
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] purple1:
Su

mount -o rw,remount /system

rm -r /system/app/ADWLauncher.apk

BE SURE TO DOWNLOAD AND INSTALL LAUNCHER2 BEFORE REMOVING ADW

HOPE I HELPED! :D
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] atlmatt:
i was forgetting to remount

to much work stress clouding my mind
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] purple1:
Lol its easy. Well for me it is....its just 2 steps
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] atlmatt:
Not sure but I think I have a couple different problems

Not sure if I have the right launcher2

When I remove ADW is says directory not empty

I tried installing Launcher2 in but it force closes

I guess Ill wait till I get to my lap top that has what I need on it.. the searching for the info I need is beyond my patience level right now
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] MusicMan374:
Were you using launcher2 from the market? And try, before removing, cding to /system/app and THEN rm ADWLauncher.apk. you might have to cd to it for it to work@

why were there two builds today? just out of curiosity
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HebrewToYou:
A member of teamdouche [kmobs] manually triggered the buildbot to deliver a new build so his theme could be properly sold via the android market.

Am I the only one not able to get the GPS working on CM7 nightlies? (Note:Even with CM6.+ I need to start navigation up before updating in the marketplace in order for my GPS to work on those ROMs) I've tried everything mentioned in this thread, I've even pushed the old (working) Maps, NetworkLocation, Street, GoogleVoice, .apk's through ADB and still nothing works.

I know these are test builds and all, Just wondering if there could be something else I might be able to try so I can get it working. Thanks in advance for putting up with my whiny post and all. :o
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] SefEXE:
No, you're not the only one. Myself and a few others, I think.

Can't say I have a method to get it working, but I'd definitely like to hear one as well. :) or.. a RC/Stable :D ... haha, but I'm patient. I don't really

NEED

GPS.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] katbastard:
my gps work after flashing newradio2, then the newest radio. but last night i was getting hella battery drain, so i clocked back down to 600 and made sure my task killer was working.. adjusted my brightness and still seem to have faster battery drain. i am in the smoky mt. and only have the edge network. my battery life was better with builds 9 and before. i have also flashed that smartass deal. anything else i can do? or can some one less n00b like then me tell me a better set up?

[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] rreyes0416:
Flash the new Radio...it will fix the GPS problem
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] MusicMan374:
Don't use a task killer. They don't even work with android 2.2.1+. Google removed the permissions for apps to kill other apps. The android system, since 2.2, has worked just fine for killing tasks. It's even better in gingerbread. Task killers are really only necessary with <2.2. My battery life is phenomenal with miguel's smartass kernel, I get days in standby. Each percent with screen off lasts roughly 20-40 minutes. Low signal can really kill battery life, especially on the edge network, since data transfers take so long. You might try flashing the old radio again, 7.09, and see if that solves your battery life issue. If not, then try doing a full wipe/reflash of the latest nightly, on a full battery charge, while your phone is plugged in. This will ensure that it isn't a battery stats/nowipe install issue. (If going back to 7.09 doesn't fix battery life, go back to 7.15 and then do the above steps, the 7.15 radio is the best :))
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] aaldiar:
At the risk of sounding redundant... I have flashed radios after install, used different GAPPS, Wiping, redoing the entire partitions, flashed without MTD partitions, flashed before and after miguel's kernel, left his kernel out of the equation, pushed old and new files before and after signing into marketplace... not a singular fix works for everyone. The MT3GSlide (and many other android phone I'm sure) has several different variants of internal hardware parts, and because of this the 'batch' of phones mine was made in prolly has a slightly different GPS chipset/firmware/hardware/program/etc embedded within it.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kingu:
Have you tired dialing back the overclock? 825 is the highest I can go before the gps gives out.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] aaldiar:
Nice thought about the overclock, but highest I set it is 787 for a nice battery life and speed combo. I can set my OC to 864 and everything is still stable in 6.1.1. I did try different variations of with and without SetCPU. I tried dialing it down as well. Didn't think that only certain apps would crash when setting it high though. Think I'll try pumping a little more juice into the installs next. I'll :EDIT my post with the results. Thanks for the idea. Though to be honest, the GPS doesn't 'give out', it is forever waiting for location. When I 'tick' on the wireless location setting, it sits forever at navigation.

:EDIT: I tried throttling the SetCPU Up and down... nada. Even tried flashing the oldest radio for the slide and in sequence flashed the next newest radio and rebooted the phone each time and tested. Flashed the .10 twice and the .16 twice... Next on the list is the GPSStatus from the market. Thanks for the input Kingu, I do appreciate it.

P.S.- The sad thing is that I don't really NEED GPS, I'm simply a little OCD and have lots of 'Oh Shiny' moments. I just want the ROM to work and I'm uber impatient/excited right now that such an awesome ROM has been offered to the slide and we have some BADASS Devs working hard even when they aren't feeling 100%.

Just wanna send some shout outs to migueltherocker, CR, Krulon360, CyanogenMod, and the rest of you guys that work tirelessly on getting the MT3G Slide the great stuff is does get. I wish I could contribute more to the community. But as soon as a final release of Gingerbread drops I'll unleash a custom theme I have been working on specifically for this ROM. I'll have revamped the looks of a lot of things in the status bar such as the Cell Signal, WiFi signal, battery icon. I have lots of images to make from scratch and much to do, I'll post a teaser soon if you guys want to see what I'm doing.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kingu:
Going back over the process I was in when I had gps problems, i downloaded gpsstatus from the market and manually downloaded the assist file, and once it would lock in assist, I could then use the gps in waze or gmaps. Don't think this would solve your problems but it might give you more info into what is going wrong.

Build 13 is out
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] bodybombs:
i dont think there has been any changes in the new builds since the themer. ive been eyeing the changelogs and i think its just the buildbot automatically updating every 24 hours.

[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Hayzie:
So many people keep saying that about task killers, but I'm addicted to it. I wouldn't even use one if 56 different apps stopped starting on their own. I have this addiction of pressing the blue X widget from QuickSystemInfo to kill those apps. I can't help it.

So tips on getting apps to stop loading? I don't see how all those apps running can mean better battery life.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] :
They aren't running. They are loaded in memory. HUGE difference.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HebrewToYou:
Free memory = wasted memory

Let Android manage tasks -- stop meddling with Task Killers/Managers.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] SKAm69:
I actually noticed a not very significant but some difference in performance when using a task killer/manager opposing to when not using it. At least in benchmarks. Besides, it is meant to give some more battery life.

I did a wipe the other day (my sd was formated as well) but was on a countryside so couldn't use any of the wifi or 3g networks, so when I came back to a city and installed a task manager back I saw that there were less than 200 Mbs free of RAM and many processes and tasks running that I never launch or use...

[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] MusicMan374:
Yeah it's cause the gapps are downloaded to /data now so they don't get wiped <: I've flashed every single nightly in consecutive order, the only one I wiped for was 9 I believe, because I had issues booting.

good to know its working for multiple people. and thx for the tidbit on gapps :)
