on nightly 205, very fast but still uses .32 kernel. really looking forward to cm8 with android 4.0/ice cream sandwich just hope they don't discontinue support like they did with the original mytouch
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] :
Have they fixed the GPS and Wifi issues? I'm using 177 and having updating to the new one? I wanted to know if I needed to do the fixes for them since I haven't yet.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] jimczyz:
Running 206 and everything works fine for me.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] TAL333:
206 works very well. The Superuser 3.0 issue from 205 is fixed. On my phone, Quadrant scores were higher on 2.3.5 though.

[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] mojoffdawal:
Anybody know where to shut off the shutter sound in the camera? Or if it's even an option? I'm on nightly 203. Much appreciated.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] txdeathray:
I believe there's an app called ShutUp camera or something on the market that does that.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Sizzlechest:
What was the issue? So is 206 definitely a newer kernel?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Phantisy:
Should be under CM Settings > Sound > Mute Camera Shutter
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] mojoffdawal:
I thought it would be there too, or at least in camera settings but I didn't find it in either place.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] SKAm69:
If it is that much important, then you should check out miui camera and camera 360. Silent shutter option is available in both of them.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] PcFish:
If anything you could delete/replace the shutter sound.

OR use the camera with slient mode on.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] mojoffdawal:
Yeah, going the silent route, the other cameras are wayyy slow. Thanks for all the suggestions.

Does anyone have trouble with the "sym" key??

It hasn't worked for me the last couple of builds.. im currently on 206 btw.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] NexusSlide:
sym key still not working on 213, still getting reboots if turn wifi on and off a few times
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] kingjehu:
Those are my two biggest issues. I hope they fix them before 4.0 source is released and Gingerbread is all but forgotten in a week.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] SKAm69:
When 4.0 source is released I hope they will forget about Gingerbread and will bring Ice Cream Sandwich to Slide.:o

New feature - use 16 bit transparency.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] ovar:
Same here :(

My ribbon cable is bad on my Slide so I don't even open the keyboard anymore. Looks like I could get a new on on Ebay for ~$15.

Random Thoughts by Jack Handy
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Hayzie:
Nightlies.

Nightlies.

Nightlies. And still nothing changes. What do they even work on? One thing functions, the next build it doesn't and something else functions. I think they're just collecting new data each time, but seriously... what else is there to even do?

My biggest and only complaint really is fix the battery life. Can we do that? I stopped updating Nightlies because it doesn't even matter.

Appreciate the work that has been put into this, but what work left is there?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] SKAm69:
You are so wrong.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] t_bone77:

Click here http://cm-nightlies.appspot.com/?device=espresso

Unfortunately, it only shows changes made in about 10 last builds.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Hayzie:
Yep, those do look like changes alright.

You sure they're not making a lot of that up? I never notice any differences :)

Anyways... good work, Patterson.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] bunu:
Most are internal, the typical user cannot see or notice them but they are there
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Wagedroid:
I agree, these "changes" don't really change a thing..

Nothing has happened since WiFi calling and built in wireless tether.. oh maybe some wallpapers..

But most of them are "internal" meaning they change our ?hardware? o_O ?

We, being the "typical" user who's rooted and been moding our phones for over a year, won't see them or notice them.. like magical fairies.. but believe it they're there.

Ok. No CM till Google releases AOSP source.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] MDSkinner:
I may be wrong, but I kind of think we will be lucky if they start at all. Here is to hoping, though.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] SKAm69:
Nightly 226 got many changes

Oh I'm sure the Teamdouche guys will be there to take care of Slide just as the rest of the phones. They can do it, they're proven.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] MDSkinner:
I love your optimism (I keep thinking they will stop supporting the slide one of these days) and I will most assuredly be right there to download and flash nightly 1 if they do. :)
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] ovar:
Nightly 231 has been very very stable for me.

No random reboots due to toggling wifi. It seems really smooth as well. I am not even OCing on this one!
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] twilightvanquisher:
im trying to fix my brothers mt3g slide. he somehow got it stuck in a boot loop, so i wiped it, installed the newest cm7 nightly and everything works fine, however i cant get the newest gapps to install the market, any ideas?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] txdeathray:
try the older gapps, not sure why it doesn't work for me either, but the previous ones work perfectly.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] jimczyz:
Also make sure you install the gapps after you install the rom before rebooting.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] SKAm69:
Has anyone also tried Drowningchil's 8.9.1 kernel mod? My wifi works. And it's 2.6.35.13 kernel

On the latest nightly (also happened on 231). I cannot get weatherbug working. Getting FC everytime. I have tried fixing permissions. Can someone else confirm if this is the case for them as well?

[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] jacewt:
I am having problems with GPS again and the fixes won't work. bleh
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] ovar:
I have experienced this on almost all nightlies since the 7.0.3RC. If I toggle wifi while data is busy the phone reboots.

Edit:

I just did some more testing without data even on and toggling wifi repeatedly causes a reboot. If anyone else would like to try I would be interested in knowing if this is more widespread than my phone.

Just keep on toggling wifi 2-4 times quickly and the phone reboots. I know this is extreme (why would anyone actually need to do this, right?) but I get reboots on a single toggle, this is just a way to make it happen everytime.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Irisservice:
Just install nightly...use gps test app...wait for signal to lock about 3min...after that it will lock in under 30 seconds...but everytime you install a nightly you need to relock gps...works flawless
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] bunu:
I heard CM9 nightlies are up.

Latest is #253. Is that still GB or is it ICS?

I hope we get ICS
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] jacewt:
It's not the locking that's the problem, it's navigation. Navigation will sit there doing nothing. I had a fix that worked but no longer in the latest nightlies.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Irisservice:

Good to know it's not just my phone (I guess). I can get logcats for the occurrences if any devs are still around for our phone.

Is there a place to enter a bug such as this?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] MDSkinner:
You should be able to go here and either enter a new issue or find one that matches yours and add a comment noting that you have the same problem. I believe these are still monitored, and may well get to a dev for our phone, but no promises.

[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] xenoletum:
Just a note, Flash 10.1 actually does run on the Espresso, as I have been running it since launch. It only works on ROMS with Sense however, and since the Stock is built off of Sense, it is compatible. It has something to do with a line of code somewhere, I'm not exactly sure.

I found this through a thread in the Desire forum about it, as they pulled the 10.1 update from the EVO 4G and installed it to their phones.

However, since CM6 is not Sense friendly, it's not going to be able to work.

Content: I'd probably be switching over in the future if this was built off of the stock launcher, however I can't get behind using a different home launcher, even if it's "so close" to the original. I don't want all that "extra functionality". I just want stock.

Now I'm waiting for the onslaught of people saying that I'm an idiot for not wanting the ADW Launcher.

08102010 nightly

Seems pretty much the same as 08092010. No bluetooth in call audio or tethering.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HebrewToYou:
It's not that CM6 is Sense "unfriendly" -- it's that Sense is a proprietary UI owned and licensed by T-Mobile and HTC. CyanogenMod has not the permission to distribute Sense and, as a result, doesn't bother to include support for it.

And, regarding Flash 10.1 Requirements...

Source: Adobe Website

As a stock Slide runs Eclair (2.1) and all Slides use an A6 processor, I'm kinda skeptical of your claim. But, regardless of the veracity of your claim, I'd rather have Froyo running on my Slide with JIT than have Eclair running with Flash 10.1.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] bhilgeman:
I wrote Cyanogen on twitter about the bluetooth not functioning correctly and he said his works fine with his motorola bt headset. I'm using a plantronics voyager 855 and it connects to phone and media audio, I can hear media audio, but I cannot hear phone audio which is what I really need. Driving around town all day getting calls from clients and driving a manual is a pain in the arse.

Can anyone here please confirm that you can hear in call audio through bt?

Time to flash..

SU 2.3 & Nightly to see if its better

What are gapps?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HebrewToYou:
Google Apps.

Steve [cyanogen] was hit with a C&D with regards to distributing proprietary Google Apps and Services in his roms. As a result of the C&D, CM builds ship in two parts: the CM system (e.g. http://mirror.kanged.net/cm/nightly/espresso/cm_espresso-08102010-003805.zip) and the "optional" gapps add-on (e.g. http://mirror.kanged.net/gapps/gapps-mdpi-FRF91-3-signed.zip).

The flash order is always CM system THEN gapps. And once you've flashed gapps over a CM6 install, you do not need to re-flash them again upon upgrading to the latest nightly build.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] bhilgeman:
Cyanogen wrote me back and said he's going to look into the bt issue tonight.

Is anyone else having problems with wifi?

I am on the 8/10 nightly, I have tried wifi in three places with varying results:

School - works - wpa2 with PEAP/MSCHAPV2 authentication

Friends house - works - wpa2 with PSK authentication

My house - doesn't work - wpa2 with PSK authentication

My logcat tells me there is a problem with the 4 way handshake and that my key may be invalid, but I have checked and rechecked it -- it's the correct key
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HebrewToYou:
Wifi is very wonky. It works sporadically.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] bhilgeman:
I've found with wifi its best to put a shortcut to wifi settings on the homescreen. If your wifi is on but its not automatically connecting just tap the shortcut to open wifi settings and it usually connects within a couple seconds.

It sounds like your problem may be different alltogether though.

Other than that I don't have any issues with it at all!
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] HebrewToYou:
It's not an issue of automatically connecting. There are simply issues with applications/system services utilizing a wifi connection. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. There doesn't appear to be any rhyme or reason to it.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] riverajuan:

Why? Check this out ICS port runs very smooth on LG Optimus which has the same processor as Slide

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KyWpgynIZvY

(but it has a resistive touch panel that makes it harder to interact)
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Wagedroid:
I'm aware of the zte blade port for optimus one, because I also have the LG p500 but like I said to enjoy "true" ics we need better processors.

Will ics run on our device, of course, but their are features and compatability issues that we will run into. Eventually there will be a stable ics port but you wont enjoy certain features that the bigger processors will.

[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] SKAm69:
What features are you talking about, NEON support? I don't think this going to be that important for OS itself, but it's an advantage for video playback and games.

GPU is Adreno 200 which is the same as on Nexus One, Desire and other S1 processor phones. Yes it's a little outdated but phones with HVGA resolution which is 3 times less than WVGA and Adreno 200 (like myTouch Slide) outperform Desire, Nexus One and similar ones in Neocore. It gives almost two times bigger score than WVGA, still with msm7227, not qsd8250

Reboots on WIFI toggle

I am on nightly 253. I have been getting reboots on wifi toggle like crazy. When I turned WIFI on it wasn't even scanning for networks.

Given that some folks have this problem and some don't I thought it may have to do with the actual networks that were saved. I removed all my save WIFI networks and then added my home WIFI network back in. I have not had a single WIFI reboot since doing this. It has only been 20ish hours, but I was getting them on almost every toggle.

I'll update this post after a more time to see if it remains stable. Please let me know if anyone else has an improvement after forgetting all WIFI connections. Possibly some corrupt data in the saves connections could cause the reboot?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] SKAm69:

Can anyone else confirm if their 'sym' key on their physical keyboard works?

Mine has not done anything for some time now. I think it is a bug.

Also, is anyone getting wifi reboots? I don't believe I have had a random wifi reboot. I just tested by toggling wifi on and off 6 or so times. They may have actually fixed this issue. I can't tell for sure because the appspot list was so long it is being truncated. Where can I view the entire list that went into the most recent build?

Edit: nm, just got one.

How is GPS for everyone?
