Rebooting into recovery

Don't know if anyone else has experienced this, but i've used the power button to reboot into recovery (from within CM6.1.0 RC1) several times, but instead of rebooting into recovery it ends up rebooting the phone. At first i thought i didnt select the right option, but have experienced it several times after confirming the "Recovery" selection.

I 'll keep digging into when it does that as it doesn't happen all the time.

the sole purpose for apps2sd is to allow loading more apps by making additional space. Apps2sd cannot speed up the phone. In fact, because sdcard storage is slower than internal storage, apps on SD will load slightly slower.

The Froyo version of aps2sd is FAT, which uses the standard sdcard partition which mounts too late in the process to allow widgets and shortcuts to apps on SD to work properly. This method allows some apps to be moved and not others, and the sdcard can be removed from the device hot.

The older apps2ext method has a history of corrupting the ext partition and shortening the life of the sd card somewhat, though when it works, it works pretty seamlessly, with all user added apps going to the sdcard. In this case, the sdcard can not be removed hot. Because this method mounts the ext partition earlier in the boot process, it allows widgets and home shortcuts to work properly. Currently, CM6 does not support this method, but it can be added by the user.

Both methods make use of slower storage for applications, which is never helpful to improve performance.

Just want to check if anyone else is getting an "error while searching for networks" when doing a "Search Networks" under Network Operators? I am registered on the network and mobile data are working normally, I just get this error on this RC1 and it always worked on stock. If I am not alone I will put it on the tracker.
[HTC Aria Android Development] netw3rkd:
No you're not alone. Same deal with me, stock rom's work, apn settings are correct. I'd be overly joyed if this was working. :)

Does anyone know if the kernel is this RC has cifs support? I know 6.0.1 does not. Would be amazing if we could get Cifs Manager to work with this rom!

I don't know if this is just my phone or if I'm doing something wrong. I have been using CM6 since the week after I got the phone, but have never tried GPS. last week I tried the GPS and every time I open navigation and plug in a route, It constantly says searching for GPS...never getting to navigation...even after 30 min. The gps Icon on the top constantly flashes...does that mean that it is still searching? I assume so....

but when I open up the program maps and places the phone seems to find where I am (although a few streets over...) but the GPS icon still flashes....does this mean that it is never actually locking on and is using data to get my approximate location? or is it working for those applications but not navigation?

is there anything I can do to fix this?

thanks,

Mike

loving cm6

I've been using cm6 since it became available. excellent ROM. thanks for all the hard work.

last few nightly builds and now with CM6 V6.1.0-RC1. I've had some issues with applications that run web servers on my aria. For example a program called "web share" that lets you access your device from your pc via a website.. i also use remote sms another program that will allow you on your pc to read and send sms text messing from your phone. both these applications use different ports, I can access the websites from the device itself. These programs only work on wifi. I am connecting to wifi without any issues, both programs display the ip address. I can over wifi connect to my pc from my aria using remote desktop client so this tells me my aria is on wifi and connecting to my lan pc's.

it's almost as if the device has a firewall and something is blocking the ports.

just a few minutes ago, I did a complete wipe and used a gmail account I normally don't use so everything is fresh, only those two apps are installed.

any suggestions on a solution or anyone else using a program like this successfully?

thanks in advance
[HTC Aria Android Development] drumist:
Are you using the latest version (v6.1.0-RC1)? Some of the older versions had problems with GPS locking taking a very long time, but the new versions have fixed that issue. With v6.1.0-RC1, my GPS will lock in under 10 seconds.

Yes, the blinking icon means it's still trying to establish a lock, and yes, if it is still blinking then it's relying on cell tower or wifi to determine your location.
[HTC Aria Android Development] ioft:
I can also confirm that in using RC1, my GPS locks within 10-15 seconds. Definitely check your release and make sure you are using the latest.
[HTC Aria Android Development] gilpdawg:
I'm a noob with this stuff, but I finally took the plunge and rooted and installed this as well. Worked fantastically. Thanks for all the work to all those involved.
[HTC Aria Android Development] attn1:
As he should have.

You guys gave absolutely zero to go on. You absolutely have to answer every question completely, provide a logcat and any other pertinent information (in this case, who the service provider is) that might help find the problem in your bug report. With hundreds of "bugs" popping up on the bug report all of the time and most of them are just not even bugs, real bugs aren't even going to get a look if you don't give the required information.
[HTC Aria Android Development] attn1:
There's a bug report waiting to happen.
[HTC Aria Android Development] attn1:
We introduced a new kernel, and it is bound to have some security enhancements. This sounds like an insecure situation allowing this application to work in the first place. What ports/protocols does the application require?
[HTC Aria Android Development] mikelebz:
I am using RC1...the absolute latest. I will try to do a complete wipe and see if that works.
[HTC Aria Android Development] kaschenberg:
Huh? It's pretty obvious that even you attn1 should have spotted this one! I noticed it within 15min of using the ROM. :D
[HTC Aria Android Development] attn1:
This is a bug that affects all devices. The CM team is well aware of it. I am just saying I am surprised no one has filed a formal bug report.
[HTC Aria Android Development] mikelebz:
After complete wipe gps works. Thanks
[HTC Aria Android Development] cranked:
Crazy battery drain as well...reverting to nightly 96.
[HTC Aria Android Development] bkmo:
Stop playing with your phone and give it a couple of days to settle in. My bat life is excellent, and I have a sip program registering full time on wifi.
[HTC Aria Android Development] ko0ky:
Thanks for the reply attn1. I honestly think I would not love this phone nearly as much if we didn't have you here helping develop and improve the custom roms.

I am trying to use android applications that use http protocol. For example.. http://nextworldmobile.com/?p=174 (there's a free version and a paid version) or search market for 'remote sms'. You can select which port you would like to use. By default this app wants to use 8080, but no matter which port I have selected I can't seem to access the aria from a pc web browser. Since a few nightly builds ago including the latest cM6 V6.1.0-RC1 it has stopped working. Almost as if a firewall is blocking the ability.

This is NOT the only application that uses HTTP protocol that I am unable to access. As of a couple nightly builds ago, I can't access any of them from my pc web browser.

Can ANYONE please try to download and install remote sms and advise me if it's working on their aria cM6 V6.1.0-RC1 build. I've cleared the caches and even setup a brand new email account so it doesn't restore my device settings.

Is there a mirror for nightly builds of 6.1 as there was for 6.0?
[HTC Aria Android Development] Buzz25:
Not sure. The last couple of times I checked the site for the bot, it was making nightlies but failing to update the mirrors. Thought I saw on twitter that it was going to be looked into this last weekend. I'm sure it will be back soon though.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Peowraaku:
soo... i understand that there is a known issue with reading SIM cards. I've been setting Call Settings > Additional Settings > My Phone Number manually so MMS will display my contact picture next to my texts instead of a grey box. This gets lost with every reboot. If the SIM read back is fixed, will it correctly read my phone number from there, or is this a separate issue?
[HTC Aria Android Development] munchkers13:

[HTC Aria Android Development] Firealoha:
I am currently running RC1 and am very pleased with it.

My son's preschool teacher (she's on Boost Mobile) peroidically sends MMS messages of him just to show how he's doing throughout the day, and I don't ever receive them. If she sends me an SMS, however, to check to see if I got the MMS, it comes through with no problem. I had this same issue on the previous CM6 build. I did a complete Data/Cache wipe and a Dalvik cache wipe prior to flashing this ROM. I also manually enter in my phone number after every reboot (don't know if this does anything or not). I also installed handcent, in the hopes that maybe a different messaging program would work. Other clues: when I have other friends send "test" MMS messages, sometimes they come through and sometimes they do not (could it be related to who their provider is?)

Strangely enough, the soon as I flash over to Liberated FR006, the messages show up.

What am I doing wrong? Is this related to Peowraaku's problem where there is an issue reading the SIM card?

Thanks in advance for your help.

[HTC Aria Android Development] :

[HTC Aria Android Development] Buzz25:
Awesome. :)
[HTC Aria Android Development] Firealoha:
Maybe you're onto something...are you thinking that Liberated thinks she's hot and Cyanogen doesn't, and that's why I can't get her MMS messages while on CM6? In other news, I have no problems with sending MMS messages.
[HTC Aria Android Development] tacitapproval:
I'm not finding them. Got a link?
[HTC Aria Android Development] bbtheory:
I cannot comment on remote SMS but I am having an issue with "serving" apps and my phone on RC1, it seems to be the same bug you are having. I use a program called Wi-fi file explorer, it lets me pull files off the phone with a web browser. The program runs but cannot be connected to. In my case the program is preset to serve on port 8000...

[HTC Aria Android Development] pretzy00:
Just a question on the nightlies, is there a site that stats what has changed with each nightly version? All of the change logs that I can find are for the final release versions. Would love to try them, just would like to know what is different to play with.

Thanks.
[HTC Aria Android Development] attn1:
There is not one comprehensive changelog. Too much changes to maintain one changelog. If you want to follow changes, follow cmsrc on twitter and you will see what I mean. cmsrc basically tweets every change pushed to the cyanogenmod repo on the github.

Another way to look at recent history is to look at merged changes on gerrit.

It's been relatively quiet since the RC1 release, but things will be hopping as soon as 6.1 is complete and feature changes start pouring in for 6.2 or whatever is next.
[HTC Aria Android Development] pretzy00:
Good to know, thanks for the information.
[HTC Aria Android Development] SSJ4Gokou:
I just flashed this on a friends phone and after a while of playing with I noticed that there is no Market. I can't seem to find the Android Market. And i have been searching all over google to download the Android Market APK file with no luck. Or am i just not looking in the right place? Can someone point me to where i can find the Android Market APK.

You need to install the Google apps package this is also referenced on the first post on this thread.

So are the newer nightlys built on rc1 6.1 with the new kernel or on the previous 6.0 kernel?
[HTC Aria Android Development] drowningchild:
flased nightly 115 lat night has OC in kernel so im guessing the newer kernel
[HTC Aria Android Development] _Opiate_:
They are improvements upon CM6.1 RC1.

And boy am I glad the nightlys are back! I sure missed them. When you get bored a fresh nightly is always good fun!
[HTC Aria Android Development] attn1:
Correct. Nightlies include all changes in RC1 and all changes in the repo since.

I'd like to think so but <ahem> that's not always the case!

Nightlies are experimental - every one of them.

I haven't used the g4 app in a while but ill give it a shot and see what happens.

Update: your right videos seem to hang. Thought the damn adds plays just fine lol of course.
[HTC Aria Android Development] _Opiate_:
I figure it's g4's issue because vedoes aren't playing on my nexus one either and I'm not running CM6.1 RC1 on it right now.

Overclocking question

First off just wanted to say that I have enjoyed seeing the progress of this mod for Aria. I've had CyanogenMod on my phone since 6.0 Stable was released and now with the RC1 flashed, I really see a huge jump in performance. I appreciate everyone involved in making my phone so much better. Just a noob question though... I know RC1 supports overclocking and with the help of Setcpu app it is possible to increase the frequency of your cpu from the stock frequency of 600hz, but I am a little reluctant to do so with fear of damaging my phone or adversely affecting the battery life. Will overclocking shorten the life of my cpu or is there a safe limit I can take it to without causing damage? Thanks for your help. Hopefully, I posted this in the right place.
[HTC Aria Android Development] :
If you aren't comfortable, don't do it. I'm running 245/806 on demand since Oct capability was added. 806 seems to be the sweet spot for the majority of people.

There is always a risk of cpu damage when you oc.
[HTC Aria Android Development] holyevilcow:
The chance you will fry your cpu oc is about as high as bricking your phone while rooting it or flashing a customized rom as long as you don't go too crazy
[HTC Aria Android Development] Bob889:
experimenting with oc

thanks for the replies about over clocking. I think I will just start off low and work my way up and monitor the temperature.
[HTC Aria Android Development] mikelebz:
I've got mine at 825 max on demand and haven't noticed an issue
[HTC Aria Android Development] _Opiate_:
Lol yeah I used to be paranoid of overclocking back when I first got my Nexus One but over time you'll see that as long as you watch you're temps your phone will be fine.

Battery issues

I know people are tired of hearing the battery issue. I've narrowed it down to a background data/sync problem for me personally. Trying to isolate the app that is running constantly, but it seems to largely be due to account syncs (exchange, gmail, twitter, fb, etc...), even when the sync wait time is set pretty long.

there might also be some other apps like the app market. i know disabling background data helped a lot. still not sure about the difference between stock/liberated/cm6 on this "issue"... ;)
[HTC Aria Android Development] Mike's Aria:
There is no battery issue with CM6 V6.1-RC1. It is all in your settings/apps/usage. Same as any other OS on any phone.

For example:

Today I only used 2% an hour for 12 hours. Barely used my phone. Yesterday I had to charge it twice because I was playing angry birds all day.

How about if you're having problems post to a different thread dedicated to batteries.
[HTC Aria Android Development] attn1:
And NOT in the development section.
[HTC Aria Android Development] jlayton15:
sometimes at night when I charge my phone it gets up to 120 like last night it hit 123 in the middle of the night randomly and I woke up and felt it then fixed it but this only happened twice before and also my phone usually is about 90 to 108 and it did this before I over clocked it but Idk if that temps bad or not

I'm a little confused of this 2G+3G setting. In some areas I do not have any mobile connection, but if I switch to just 2G setting, I will get full service. Is there a way I can set the phone to switch to 2G in low service areas? Isn't 3G+2G setting on the toggle widget supposed to do that?

I've been running 6.1.0 rc1 for several days and something odd just happened. I selected the power widget to move it and after placing it somewhere, little arrows come up to change the size. I can move them around to change size but I cannot remove the arrows or select a size. I tried with a different widget as well and had the same issue. Had to reboot to fix it.

Anyone know how to fix this? Maybe I'm just missing something I haven't seen any other posts about this.

Is anyone else having problems with playing the videos that was just recorded using the stock Gallery app? I get errors when I try to play the video - "Cannot play video - sorry this video cannot be played". However, if I try to play video again, after couple of tries it starts playing. Anyone else experiencing this issue?

Yes; I'm sure I wiped data, cache and dalvik cache before I installed CM6. Yes; I have tried clearing the data associated with the "Gallery" app. (Settings->Applications->Manage Applications->Gallery->Clear Data).

I noticed some potentially bad(?) messages in the logcat:

Proximity sensor setttings ... cheek holds

i don't use this rom, i prefer sense, but my gf prefers this rom due to the better battery life. she always complains about cheek holds due to the position of the hold button and the proximity sensor timing, is there a way to move the hold button or make the proximity sensor to delay turning the screen back on?
