Liberated aria with froyo rom?
[HTC Aria Android Development] pcruz:
I have this problem very often, Usually i hit the power button before putting the handset to my ear. :/
[HTC Aria Android Development] drumist:
It helps if you are aware of where the proximity sensor is located. It's just above the "a" in the at&t logo on the top of the phone. When holding the phone to your ear, make sure that part of the phone is being covered by your ear and not BEHIND your ear, which is why the screen is turning back on.
[HTC Aria Android Development] G1-8701:
i think i tried that one already, does cyanogen have any word on a new rom?
[HTC Aria Android Development] cybercod:
Is anyone building a wiki of this info anywhere? Its hard to navigate this thread (and other related threads) very effectively.
[HTC Aria Android Development] ChrisForSure:
Great rom, superb battery life and everything is really fast. Quick question: are there any keyboards other than the stock one that I can use?
[HTC Aria Android Development] Mike's Aria:
Lots. Search here, on market, google....
[HTC Aria Android Development] Plasmamuffins:
Did anyone notice that when you use the internet, it tells you that you're using a Galaxy Tab? Like when you go to touch.facebook.com, at the bottom left it says "Download the official Facebook application for your Galaxy Tab" >.>

Its been like that for awhile,not a big deal
[HTC Aria Android Development] seboj:
Anyone having data connection issues?

My Gmail app hasn't updated in days, but the regular email app is working fine. I sporadically lose my data connection throughout the day. It says I have one, but nothing will work (browser, maps, xda-app, etc). Even when I'm using WiFi. Restarting the phone sometimes fixes it, sometimes not. The data connection icon shows up, but stays blank, and I'll have fewer bars then I should; then right as it starts working, my bars go back up to full.

Was working fine on RC0, but I just did a clean wipe for RC1. Worked alright for a few days, and then I started having problems. I didn't restore any of the system data after the wipe.
[HTC Aria Android Development] bikedogrun:
CM 6.1 RC1 won't load?

Not new @ flashing roms, done many on my Droid Eris and a few on the Aria.

All I get is the Cyanogen bootani and even if I wait 45 minutes... nothing else?

Only way out is to do a battery pull. Can easily go back to (eclair) Liberty Aria but wanted to try a non-Sense Froyo build for the 1st time ///

Thoughts???

/BD :cool:

++ Later that morning ++

OK... re-downloaded the cm6.1 zip (for the third time) and it really was the charm! All is well, setting up now //
[HTC Aria Android Development] tacitapproval:
I am on nightly 125, although I have noticed this with the last few Nightlies. I get occasional restarts when using the notification pulldown. It hangs for a few seconds, then restarts. Anyone else seen this?
[HTC Aria Android Development] :
Noticed a little quirkiness starting with #123 nightly. Switched back to rc1. I'd try flashing back to 122 or so and see if this blows of over. 6.1 final can't be too far away.
[HTC Aria Android Development] driz:
So, i'm back with my Exchange issues again. When cm first came out i commented that I couldn't connect to my exchange server with the built-in stuff. I flipped back and forth between liberated and CM pretty often do to this issue (i need exchange for work and touchdown isn't an option, or im forced to carry a blackberry... the old huge ones) Anyway, liberated fr series comes out and i figured i'd try it out.. i still hate it because it's sense and everything i like about android is weird on it, but guess what... exchange works perfectly.

I previously thought this was a 2.2 issue because the n1 forums talked alot about it (frf83 i think fixed it for them) but since exchange works out of the box on liberated fr but not in CM, it seems that there must be something different in CM regarding exchange support.

That being said, what information from my phone can i gather to help diagnose the issue; assuming the issue is worth the time?

The Liberated version im using is DDX FR-005, FRF91 (pretty sure anything above FRF89 works for exchange)

The CM version im using is the latest stable as I couldnt find the nightly link the other day when i looked.

When I try to delete apps with titanium backup the phone fails to reboot and locks up.
[HTC Aria Android Development] DamnCampers:
Anyone experiancing any issues with the wifi hotspots setting or the tethering? I tired both of them today and they were a no go. Both worked in 6.0.2.1 stable.
[HTC Aria Android Development] :
Both work fine on 127 nightly.
[HTC Aria Android Development] DamnCampers:
Alright I'll try the nightly and see if it fixes it tonight
[HTC Aria Android Development] mikelebz:
tethering works fine on RC1....loving this rom! thank you very much! have been using CM since end of this past summer.
[HTC Aria Android Development] ls377:
Is anyone having their screen come on randomly on the last few nightlies? There doesn't seem to be a rhyme or reason to it.
[HTC Aria Android Development] HeetMon:
Yes. I've hung mine up twice. The pulldown does use CPU like crazy iirc.

[HTC Aria Android Development] tedkunich:
First post here. Been using RC1 for about a week now, and noticed that the automatic screen brightness control is FUBAR. It dims to the point of being very hard to read. Subject the phone's sensor to a bright light, the screen will get very bright (as expected) and then dim to a more reasonable brightness after resuming a normal ambient lighting setting. Putting the phone to sleep and then waking it up, the screen return to the very dim setting again even though the ambient light level did not change from when it was put to sleep. Is this a bug in CM? Can anyone else verify this?

Thanks,

T
[HTC Aria Android Development] ChrisForSure:
Why even use the auto brightness? Turn off the feature and save battery
[HTC Aria Android Development] :
Cyanogenmod settings - user interface - automatic backlight. Check use custom, and then tap edit other levels. Set the first button to 60 and then save & apply.
[HTC Aria Android Development] 911jason:
Okay... I was thinking about rooting and installing CM6, but after reading this thread from start to finish and not understanding half of what has been discussed, I think I'll pass. I don't understand how everyone is using the same piece of hardware (Aria) and presumably the same piece of software, but all getting different bugs. Is the stable version really stable? Are there huge benefits I'd be missing out on if I decided to just use the stable version?
[HTC Aria Android Development] Noz85:
Most of the discussion in this thread is to report bugs found on the Roms (stable and nightly).. The stable release works fine most of us are running the nightly roms so we can help test and report to the devs. Try the stable before wondering off into the nightly releases.
[HTC Aria Android Development] :
Cyanogenmod is a solid project with solid coding. I dealt with a friends different phone and looked at the different rom projects it had available and let me tell you... there are some trashy hacked together roms out there.

Cyanogenmod issues you see are mostly related to constantly flashing rom updates without wiping the phone from time to time. So much is happening, you need a full wipe periodically.

If you want solid, I would flash cm6.1 rc1 and only flash the next rc or final. Cyanogen is wide open and powerful.

For sense ui, the Liberated r012 rom is solid. It doesn't get you 2.2 froyo like Cyanogen, but it is rock solid.

There is a LiberatedFR sense rom that gets you 2.2. It is good, but still has its quirks. Sounds like you want solid.

Cm6.1 rc1 or liberated.
[HTC Aria Android Development] kfuzion:
Just from my experience, I find Liberated FR006 more stable than CM 6.1RC1. My only issue with CM6.1 is that it's not possible to connect to wifi where you have to login online. And yes, I've wiped data/cache/factory reset etc etc.

And of course you have to back up your current contacts, then import them to CM6.1(its easy but its a hassle if you forget to backup first...)
[HTC Aria Android Development] 911jason:
Thanks for the replies guys... I think I'll probably jump in and go for it. Curious about this though...

What's the point of rooting if you're going to have the same version of Android that comes on the phone? Is it just to rid your phone of bloatware? Or is there another benefit?
[HTC Aria Android Development] :
Removed bloatware, root access, sideloading, wireless tethering to name a few.

Just nandroid backup with rom manager and play with each one to see what you like. That's the beauty of Android.

Edit: cm6.1 also has built in overclocking kernel.
[HTC Aria Android Development] CallMeAria:
Its been a while since I've flashed a version of cm6 that wasnt stable for me. On occasion I'll get a few quirks after flashing, but like mentioned above, when ever this happens I just do a full wipe as opposed to just wiping caches after backing everything up and reinstall that particular rom and everything works great. I use Titanium backup and adw's restore feature so that even when i do a full wipe the extra effort is negligable as I dont have to manually set everything up again.
[HTC Aria Android Development] ls377:
I don't have this problem. I can sign in to my college's wifi through the browser no problem.
[HTC Aria Android Development] tedkunich:
Simply because I use my phone in widely varying conditions - there is no one setting that works in a dark room and outside.

Thanks anyway.
[HTC Aria Android Development] tedkunich:
Thanks, I did find that - more surprised that enabling auto brightness that the phone dims the screen so low that it is not viewable even in a moderately light room. Still sounds like a bug, as it will hold it's brightness until it is put to sleep, and then upon awaking, is when it goes nuts and cranking the brightness too low.

T
[HTC Aria Android Development] :
May have found a bug with usb tether. You have to reboot before it is actually turned off even though you uncheck the box and all seems well. Try to mount as storage after usb tether and you can't until the reboot.

Confirmed doing this in the past few nightlies. Haven't checked if it does in rc1 as well.
[HTC Aria Android Development] ussderekrs:
Is there any way I can enable mass storage device without usb connection? I need it to be enabled before I plug it into my radio.
[HTC Aria Android Development] tleung11:
this is a wrong post
[HTC Aria Android Development] Mike's Aria:
I'm not finding anyone saying it is out. What is your source?
[HTC Aria Android Development] shadeslader:
maybe he's referring to this

mobilecrunch .com/2010/11/23/twitter-awash-with-nexus-one-owners-claiming-to-have-received-gingerbread/

its just a bug fix not gingerbread
[HTC Aria Android Development] tleung11:
Nexus One already received update notice, oh yes it maybe just an 2.2 update..

The phone is not mine and I haven't got confirmed news in google though.

just an update here - damn it I got tricked, it's fake and confirmed it's just a small update, I will delete previous post.
[HTC Aria Android Development] attn1:
6.1-RC2 is available in all the usual haunts.
[HTC Aria Android Development] kt9198jp:
Wow!

Thanks so much.

I try this.
[HTC Aria Android Development] kaschenberg:
What is updated?

I suppose if I clicked on the CHANGELOG (like is suggested attn1) I could see what's updated.. but nothing is
[HTC Aria Android Development] strose09:
Wow using RC2 and it's quite snappy no lag thanks attn1.
[HTC Aria Android Development] netw3rkd:
Rc2 is great. For first time using any cm6 I'm able to force roaming. Great job! Thanks for your time and dedication. Also happy Thanksgiving :)
[HTC Aria Android Development] kaschenberg:
Wow, I see my post was removed. That says it all.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Googa:
RC2 seems to be running great!
[HTC Aria Android Development] holyevilcow:
yay thanks attn1! happy thanksgiving!
[HTC Aria Android Development] ladios:
This is the first time I upgrade from an existing CM6. I noticed that gapps will be backup before install, so I looked up the backup script and found that I can set a custom list to backup other system apps I installed. So I did it to preserve apps2ext and some other apps, and then upgraded.

After the first boot, all user apps didn't show up in launcher. I did a `a2sd resetcache` then they showed themselves.

I linked /etc/hosts to /data before, but it's gone now. So, apparently, the backup script cannot restore symbolic link.
[HTC Aria Android Development] :
You have to flash the A2SD zip from recovery right after you flash a new cyanogen update, then boot.

Just go back to recovery and flash the zip just as you did when you first installed a2sd. Yes, you have to do this every time you flash a new update.
[HTC Aria Android Development] mocsun23:
does this have full flash?
[HTC Aria Android Development] Lord Alekosh:
The aria does not support full flash. There is flash lite which runs on the sense Rom. But there is no flash support on CM6. I think you may be able to use flash somewhat on skyfire, but I'm not sure if that only works on the iPhone. Hope that helps.
[HTC Aria Android Development] ladios:
I don't think I really have to flash the a2sd zip if I have /system/etc/custom_backup_list.txt with the following content and clear dalvik cache before update.

bin/a2sd
bin/apps2sd.hlp
bin/bash
bin/busybox.a2sd
bin/chka2sd
bin/dtinstall
bin/jita2sd
bin/launcha2sd
bin/starta2sd
bin/sysinit
bin/zipalign
etc/init.d/00banner
etc/init.d/01sysctl
etc/init.d/02firstboot
etc/init.d/04apps2sd
etc/init.d/10apps2sd
etc/init.d/35apps2sd
etc/init.d/99complete
sd/placeholder
xbin/a2sd
xbin/apps2sd
[HTC Aria Android Development] :
Ok dude, whatever and good luck with that. All I know is every time I update cm6 I have to flash the a2sd zip again and it works. Been that way since 6.0.2.1. If you'll watch when you flash the zip file, it also deletes several things that apparently conflict with it. So again, I would just flash the zip. In the time you've spent going back and forth in the forum you could have already just flashed the file and been in business =)
[HTC Aria Android Development] ladios:
Actually, the only extra file it will remove is /system/bin/e2fsck, but I would rather like to keep it coz I think it's good for sd-ext's health. Also, I won't just flash the zip in which contains a bug I found. Instead, I made an all-in-one flashable including patched a2sd, ad-free hosts, and updated version of gapps, superuser and terminal. But with custom_backup_list.txt, I don't even have to flash it after update, just like you don't have to flash gapps. Now it's needed only when I come back from Liberated.
[HTC Aria Android Development] prata:
Attn1 - hey long time no type. Still doing the court thing, but RC2 rocks right on out. Great job man, and to every single member that's helped out.
[HTC Aria Android Development] kaschenberg:
What's the point in downloading/upgrading if we don't even know what's updated? This is pointless, why fix it if it isn't broken?
[HTC Aria Android Development] :
OK troll, you've said your peace numerous times. We get it. No one's making you do anything but leave if you persist. I for one try to ignore comments like these but I'm sick of seeing you clutter time and time again with these same destructive comments. If trust in this project is actually an issue with you, wipe your phone and go elsewhere.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Plasmamuffins:
Sweet. This is super fast. On rc1, the phone was super laggy on the stock 600mhz. But when I updated the rom, 600 feels like 800 now o:

Edit: holy crap, I ran quadrant and here's the results

I know benchmarks don't really matter, but my friend has an evo with 2.2 on it, and my phone is slightly faster in benchmarks and in most games. He's actually jealous xD

Amazing job attn1, you is be a genious :D
[HTC Aria Android Development] lilhaiti:
I am not complaining but I am with kaschenberg on this one. If you upgrade and you see something good or bad with it, why not share. The changelog is kinda cryptic and people just stating that the new update is good doesn't help others. All he is saying is why should he or shouldn't he upgrade. There used to be a lot of chatter about every update and ever nightly in this thread (and it was good and informative) now lately there hasn't been any. That's one of the things people come to these threads for; info on the latest updates. Please don't jump on people for asking questions because there isn't much info being passed around here. Just my two cents.

I have installed RC2 and I would suggest installing it. Everything seems to work a lot smoother, and the power widget in the notification pull down is a lot easier to see.
[HTC Aria Android Development] kaschenberg:
How am I troll? Because I work in the IT industry and security is a threat that I acknowledge, especially with these devices? Do you understand that everytime you download an app that says its accessing numerous databases of phone numbers and addresses that they can easily collect all of it without you knowing? Get a grip and understand.

Anyone in the IT industry understands from where I'm coming from, obviously you're the troll who upgrades and doesn't realize you're actually making it worse. But I'm not saying that's the case here - I just want to know what has been changed!

For all you know... attn1 could have gone psycho and made everyone's phones self destruct while you're taking a poop. Stop being ignorant!
[HTC Aria Android Development] :
That's my problem with your posts right there. It's fine to ask for more details, but quite another when you make accusations and attack people's character, time and time again. That is indeed being a troll. Hop in irc and someone will be glad to give you any details you want.

You attack the trustworthiness of the devs, yet want to rely on their word written in a changelog to determine security. Proposterous. I'm finished cluttering this thread on that topic.
[HTC Aria Android Development] kaschenberg:
There are no accusations. I shouldn't have to "hop in irc". A changelog is given on Page 1 that only a dev/maintainer can fully understand.

My point is to make the entire process more productive and understanding, not to degrade anything here. attn1 most likely has good intentions here but we deserve to know what's been modified. I guess if you're brave enough go ahead and flash it, but I won't until I see a proper changelog...
[HTC Aria Android Development] bkmo:
I second the fact that you are a troll. My post accusing you of being a troll as well as other things got deleted yesterday. Looks like what you need to do is do a git clone and compile it yourself. That is after correcting all the serious security risks in the source first. Might I suggest following cmsrc on twitter and you will see the changes first hand. There is no definitive changelog as things are moving fast all the time.
[HTC Aria Android Development] :
Rc2 rock solid here guys. Just keeps getting better!
[HTC Aria Android Development] bkmo:
You must have big balls for flashing it without seeing what the evil devs have added this time. :)
[HTC Aria Android Development] :
Like you, I follow cmsrc and the devs on twitter so I see every change as it happens.
[HTC Aria Android Development] p2600:
Yes, I 2nd that. CM6.1 RC2 is stable, with good battery life. CyanogenMod team is the real Rock-a-Rolla.
[HTC Aria Android Development] ChairmanPlow:
I'll be a brave soul and flash this tonight.
[HTC Aria Android Development] 911jason:
So can we dumb this down for the noob (me!)... I just rooted and installed CM6.1 RC1 earlier this week... and then of course a few days later RC2 comes out. Just my luck. What steps do I need to take to install RC2 when I'm currently on RC1?
[HTC Aria Android Development] bkmo:
Just put it on your sdcard and flash it from recovery like you did for RC1. You shouldn't have to wipe anything, and all data will be intact after the flash.
[HTC Aria Android Development] :
Well, he does need to wipe cache and advanced-dalvik for good measure since they switched to some Htc froyo libs.
[HTC Aria Android Development] leepriestenator:
Everybody, please get back on topic.

@kaschenberg You show up on our radar far too often. You've made your point. Everybody gets your stance on it. Now stand down. I don't want to see another post on this again. This is your last warning and from what I can see, you've received quite a few of them already.

@bkmo I understand your frustration, but you need to tone down the language. Next time will attract an infraction.

No responses to this guys. Just continue on with the topic of the thread.
[HTC Aria Android Development] 911jason:
So would that be covered by these steps from the Wiki:

1. Download the latest version of CyanogenMod.

Optional: Download the MDPI Google Apps* for your phone.

2. Place the CyanogenMod update.zip file on the root of the SD card.

Optional: Place the Google Apps .zip on the root of the SD card also.

3. Boot into the ClockworkMod Recovery.

4. Once you enter ClockworkMod Recovery, use the side volume buttons to move around, and either the power button or the trackball to select.

5. Select the option to Wipe data/factory reset.

6. Then select the option to Wipe cache partition.

7. Select Install zip from sdcard.

8. Select Choose zip from sdcard.

9. Select the CyanogenMod update.zip.

Optional: Install the Google Apps by performing steps 7 - 9 again and choosing the Google Apps update.zip.

10. Once the installation has finished, select +++++Go Back+++++ to get back to the main menu, and select the Reboot system now option. Your HTC Aria should now boot into CyanogenMod.
[HTC Aria Android Development] 911jason:
Also... do I need to redownload the Google Apps? Or will the ones I downloaded earlier this week still be fine?
[HTC Aria Android Development] :
That is to install from scratch. If he wants to upgrade from rc1 he just needs to wipe dalvik, wipe cache, but Not data. Then flash. No need to flash gapps either as it is already there.
[HTC Aria Android Development] 911jason:
Awesome! Thanks Belac!
[HTC Aria Android Development] 911jason:
Are there any mirrors for downloading the file? The link on the first page of this thread is running super slow... ~20k/sec!
[HTC Aria Android Development] drumist:
I sent you a private message with a temporary mirror link you can use.
[HTC Aria Android Development] 911jason:
Thanks Drumist, that one's working MUCH better! 600k+/sec...
[HTC Aria Android Development] tacitapproval:
If attn1 wanted to nefariously exploit your data, why would he tell you about it in a changelog?

Edit: sorry, didn't see the mods response before I posted this.
[HTC Aria Android Development] CallMeAria:
Running rc2 and loving every second of it.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Milx:
What is the major diffrent with rc1 and rc2 ?
[HTC Aria Android Development] 911jason:
Did this, worked like a charm! First boot went right to the same home screen I left on RC1. Didn't have to do a thing. Thanks for the info Belac!
[HTC Aria Android Development] tpbklake:
Here is one of the main differences:

BTW, I have also upgraded from RC1 to RC2 without any issues and it is running just fine.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Mike's Aria:
Only thing I have noticed on RC2 is the screen brightness doesn't stay fixed. I have auto bright disabled.
