As you can see I have duplicate folders with identicals name in /data resulting in loss of space.

They even have same index number. I've never seen this on an UNIX system and don't know how to delete only one (maybe renaming may do the trick).
[Desire Android Development] X-dark:
Replying to myself...

I have been able to solve the problem with simple renaming :

mv dalvik-cache dalvik-cache1
rm -rf dalvik-cache
mv dalvik-cache1 dalvik-cache

I don't know why it happened at first.

Anyway I know have 30% of additional free space on /data.

If you turn on flash light in camcorder, then close the camcorder and bring down the notification bar the button for flash light its lid up but it's actually off.
[Desire Android Development] adancau:
1. is fixed.

2. nope

3. for some reason 177 seems to be draining my battery pretty fast, i had Android OS in battery use eating up more than the display, and that's a first for me. anyone else with this prob?
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
This post was the victim of some really funky JavaScript in the editor. Quoted a post somewhere further along in the thread and that overwrote this post...
[Desire Android Development] Kali-:
i do not have this bug
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
Any news on the screen-not-responsive-when-turned-on bug? Or the Mobile-data-won't-connect-after-wifi bug?

Trying to fgure out whether or not I should upgrade from N174...
[Desire Android Development] sjgore:
I'm on 175 and don't have either of these bugs, but then I've only ever encountered the first bug you mentioned once in the entire time I've used CyanogenMod, and the second bug hasn't happened for about a couple of months.
[Desire Android Development] worstenbrood:
Anyone tested if these are fixed in #177 ?
[Desire Android Development] UpSpin:
I have an issue with the Bluetooth HID driver in CyanogenMod.

The keyboard works fine, however, if I rotate my HTC Desire, the arrow keys get rotated, too, somehow.

In landscape mode arrow left causes cursor down, arrow right cursor up arrow up cursor left, arrow down cursor right.

Any way or modification to fix this?
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
I noticed this too, added it to the CyanogenMod issues tracker weeks ago. Just search for Bluetooth HID.
[Desire Android Development] adancau:

[Desire Android Development] Rohaq:
If you go into the terminal and type in "top -m 10 -n 1" (no quotes!) and hit enter, what's your output?

EDIT: Type "top -m 10 -n 1 > /sdcard/top_output.txt" if you want to pipe output into a file on your SD card so you can email it to your PC and get it more easily.
[Desire Android Development] marinierb:
178 is definitely depleting my battery much faster than any version of Cyanogen that I've had over the last few months.

Edit: 177, not 178.
[Desire Android Development] fridlack:
Same here, i am back to 174 until battery drain problem are solved...
[Desire Android Development] marinierb:
With 177, top was reporting very high CPU usage for process "system_server" (over 90%). It's much lower with 170, sitting around 1% right now.
[Desire Android Development] fenderf4i:
I had to revert from 177, it's the first build that I've had major problems with.
[Desire Android Development] Kali-:
stay on #176, i can inform u when this bug will be fixed
[Desire Android Development] mad-murdock:
You can always go to latest nightly build with vork kernel. Running pretty good with cyanogen

Swyped with HTC Desire. Excuse typos.
[Desire Android Development] Kali-:
it's not a kernel bug
[Desire Android Development] adancau:
I'm not sure yet if it's fixed in 179, but it's definitely MUCH better. In177 I had my CPU staying at 900+ MHz at all times, now it drops down to 200+. Will see after a day of normal usage.

edit: yes, seems fixed. there's still the problem with elastic scrolling though, when scrolling slowly to the top/bottom without lifting your finger, the list jumps when reaching the end.
[Desire Android Development] sjgore:
Glad it's not just me. Higher battery drain with 175. Is 174 not affected then?

Edit: Cell Standby 29%, Display 28%. Oh, and I'm running vorkKernel 8.
[Desire Android Development] Kali-:
bug was introduced in 177 and fixed in 179
[Desire Android Development] Twau:
Great work!
[Desire Android Development] sjgore:
Thanks Kali, I'm now running 179 with vorkKernel 8 and all seems well in the couple of hours since updating.
[Desire Android Development] Roscopcoletrain:
I mentioned this before, rom manager still borked for anyone else? stopped updating after 174.

So battery life seems better again in 179?
[Desire Android Development] worstenbrood:
In the notification dropdown there's a lot of unused space at the top of each notification

This is still present in #179, even when overscrolling is disabled.

Like the new stuff tho :)

Edit: Seems to be the case only for the first notification
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
Holy crap, bouncy scroll on #179 is freakin awesome. :D

No problems with notifications and too much space here - care to post a screenshot showing the problem?
[Desire Android Development] adancau:
Was getting that in 176, but in 177 seemed fixed. I'm on 179 now and no probs with that.
[Desire Android Development] StuMcBill:
What do you mean by Bouncy Scroll? I have installed 179 and I havent noticed any difference from 174?
[Desire Android Development] rover.prince:
Hey mates I started to face the menu scroll issue in 176 that if u scroll to the end of manu and try to select the apps from menu in end u just bounce to the apps in start of menu, is it resolved or still persist.

I mean in main menu menu instead of getting down goes to up when u were on the end of main menu.
[Desire Android Development] rover.prince:
It means if u move the top or down to the any menu it bounces up or down than a usual and then returns to it's default place.

It's in caynogenmod settings in user interface setting.
[Desire Android Development] StuMcBill:
Cool, got it now. Thanks!
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
That problem is gone as far as I can tell.
[Desire Android Development] rover.prince:
Thanks for update mate.
[Desire Android Development] dakdroid:
wifi:

after reboot i can surf about 30secs. after that it takes up to 1min to load google...

enabling/disabling wifi doesnt fix this.

FIX: vorkKernelr8

same with dataconnection

@kali i saw a couple of germans with this problem in the thread maybe its location related somehow...

edit: tried all possibly settings before i flashed the vorkkernel:

no security/WEP/WPA, different channels, other network name...
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
No such problems here. Unlikely to be location related...?
[Desire Android Development] madd0g:
Any chance to implement that in the current RC1 like replacing CMParts.apk from Nightly build to RC1? Or is that some sort of modification in framework also.
[Desire Android Development] jonmall1441:
New Gapps if i'm not mistaken. Might want to update the second post.

Then menu still scrolls to the top in launcher pro but seems to work all right in ADW. Could it be something from launcherpro?
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
I use Launcher Pro and it doesn't scroll to the top on mine...
[Desire Android Development] jonmall1441:
Do you use the bounce effect? I mean the app drawer not the menu sorry if that isn't clear :S
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
I'm also talking about the app drawer, and yes, I'm using the bounce effect. Although... are you using the 3D drawer? Maybe that's the problem, because that has its own bounce effect, I think...
[Desire Android Development] jonmall1441:
Ah alright yea i am using the 3D drawer. lol thats alright i've now configured ADW to my liking hehe :)
[Desire Android Development] worstenbrood:
Edit: nvm i fixed it, had to reset ui tweaks in cyanogenmod settings and reboot, everythings is ok now :)
[Desire Android Development] terryhau:
Overscroll is a pretty cool, but a bit buggy.

If you scroll past the top or bottom without lifting your finger off, it jumps.
[Desire Android Development] adancau:
+1. At least in lists.
[Desire Android Development] mbroeders:
Two quick questions before trying the nightly:

1) The bouncy effect, is this the same effect that MIUI roms have?

2) Are there great differences between the kernel this rom uses and the one from RC6.1? I'm curious because RC6.1 is incredible fast and I'm experiencing amazing battery life. To be honest, I'd like to try out the nightly, but I'm a bit reluctant to take a step back battery- and speedwise...

Thanks!
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
True. Where do we report bugs like this? Kali, do you fix the bugs/problems we report here upstream? Or is there somewhere else we should be posting too?

I had tears in my eyes while laughing
[Desire Android Development] mon@diac:
+1........
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
Of course we're not going to post the bugs on the Cyanogenmod bug tracker or anything... but don't the devs (and you, Kali) need some feedback for the Nightlies? Otherwise, what's the point of having Nightlies? I mean, I'm happy to have them, but I'd like to contribute by using what little brain power I have to at least make the right people aware of problems...?

I'm still just a little confused about the development process of Cyanogenmod ;)
[Desire Android Development] rover.prince:
+1 I agree a feedback to bugs is always needed. No one is asking for the solution for that nightly but for upcoming at least.
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
Or maybe they have everyone they need already...?
[Desire Android Development] Kali-:
nightlies bugs or new features can be discussed in this thread

Why? Bug report are only useful for Stable/RC release which is built under control of the phone maintainer.
[Desire Android Development] rover.prince:
@Kali this overbounce feature was introduced in 175 and since till now in 179 the problem with 3d drawer of apps still persists. I mean if u go to the bottom of menu in 3d drawer of AWL or Launcher the apps in bottom r not selected but they bounce up and apps in top list get selected while opening them.
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
Phone maintainer being like you in the case of Bravo/Desire?

I thought the stable/RC releases were just bugfixed snapshots of the nightlies...?

How does the whole thing work? If I take a look at cmsrc on Twitter, for instance, those changes are directly available in the next nightly, right? And when are which changes from the nightlies implemented into the next RC/Stable release? And why are some devices' stable/RC versions lagging behind others?

I've been Googling for a while, but I can't really find a decent explanation :p
[HD7 General] StaticTony:
So you guys have had the HD7 for a while now. I know it has bugs at the moment. Its to be expected as the OS is still new.

But would you buy it if you knew what you knew now?
[HD7 General] foaf:
Yes, most certainly. Loving WP7 completely. In terms of hardware, the size of the screen is the deal maker for me. But a surprisingly nice addition is the kick stand, which is both effective, useful and invokes an 'oooh that's cool' from people I show the phone to.
[HD7 General] Milky1:
I did buy it, then I returned it.

And got an Omnia 7.
[HD7 General] StaticTony:
May I ask why?
[HD7 General] adesonic:
Absolutley I would, yes, there are are few niggles but this is version 1 of the software and a brand new device FFS. Apple are STILL having problems withe the iphone 4 even now (alarms cannot deal with move to GMT from BST for example). With WP7 you are buying into one of the most promising new mobile phone OS's of recent times IMHO, with the HD7 in particular, you are getting a cool big screen device from a company that has built up a good name for itself in the industry. I currently own the HTC Desire and the HTC HD7. I will be keeping the Desire only until the Kindle app and HTML5/ Flash land for WP7, then that will go on Ebay.

My only fear is that because MS decided to launch without one or two features (Flash/ CutnPaste and turn by turn Nav) it will get hammered by the critics in the tech press and be stillborn. This would be a tragedy - the more competition there is in the smartphone space the better for the consumer.

I also hope the handset manufacturers give it the attention it deserves, recent reports on build quality issues with the HTC Trophy do not bode well
[HD7 General] StaticTony:
That's a conclusive argument ;)

I'm mainly after one as I'm a software developer and I'm interested in the app platform. Looks good. I will go get one today ;)
[HD7 General] acky85:
Ive had mine a day and love it. Was running andoird on my HD2 previously and loved that. But I love the HD7 more. Ye the app market isnt as large as the other major two OS but I can live with that and times will change.

I had an iphone last year and once you get over the intiial hysteria of having millions of useless apps to download and amuse yourself with its not so important.

Ive not had any bugs with the HD7 yet. What issues have people come across.

My only gripe is that Im stuck with crappy Vodafone until 2012 :(
[HD7 General] Milky1:
Sure, I loved it in the first 2 days but these 4 main reasons cropped up:

1. The phone would crash/lockup, it did this about 6 times in the week I had it.

2.The hard buttons (on/off, volume, camera) had NO click to them, they were completely soft, so I ended up pressing them all the time by accident, I launched the camera so many times when just holding the phone.

3.The case I was sold with it from the O2 store actually marked the back of it. ( a Leather one with a strap you pull to get it out, don't buy it)

4. I had huge doubts about the overall quality of the device, I really really don't think it would last for 18 months.

I understand 1 (possibly) and 3 were not the fault of the actual device but after issues 2 and 4 cropped up I just decided to return it and got a Omnia 7 instead.

So far for me the Omnia 7 is much better, seems much more higher build quality and its made from metal, the buttons have a nice satisfying click to them, and the screen is just gorgeous, aswell as it being much faster at loading apps and games.

The only reason I took the HD7 over the Omnia 7 in the first place was the double storage but that's not worth the trade off for me.
[HD7 General] chromedome:
Oh Yes!!

Having bought an iPhone when they first came out and then giving it to one of our engineers within a week (he thought all his birthdays had come at once!) as deemed useless for true functionality compared with WM6. And then enjoyed my Touch HD I was in eager anticipation of the HD7.

Absolutely love it :cool:

Good OS - and looking forward to the updates

Brilliant device - everybody that sees it drools over it and rushes to renew their contract :D

I have been using email on my mobiles for years and have to say that the HD7 is by far the most brilliant device for actually 'doing business' on the move - big & bright and cool to use :rolleyes:

Edit: Forgot to mention - the Office Hub is a 'killer': Was at a presentation yesterday with 2min before I stood up and realised I needed info from a spreadsheet which I thought was on my HD7 (but wasn't) - it took me 30secs to get it! - try doing that with an Android or iPhone...

Regards

[HD7 General] digime:
The only issue I have so far is the battery life but I've only done a couple of charges so hopefully that will improve.

It's early days for me but at the moment I am happier than I thought I would be. I'm trying Zune pass at the moment and really liking it. Maybe I didn't need the 16GB after all.

I though about the Omnia 7 but didn't want another 18/24 month contract and the PAYG prices being thrown around were a lot more expensive. Plus, I couldn't actually find anyone selling it on PAYG!
[HD7 General] loomx:
Had it for a bit now, had a few bugs happen, but I would not change it for any other phone out there.

Omnia 7 is a 100% no go for me because of the 8gb memory, I only have about 500meg left on my HD7 and will be ugrading to 32gb asap.

Im still not convinced in AMOLED screens, the colours never look right to me and the edges arnt smooth (looking at my sisters and aunts desires) The look stunning, but they dont look real if that makes sence? I would have loved to have an SLCD in it though. But to be honest the HD7 screen looks fantastic because I have the backlight on 100% all the time.

Battery life isnt that bad, it could be better, but it IS better than my HD2's was.

Biggest niggle is bluetooth audio streaming of music doesnt seem to be as high as quality as my HD2s theres everso slight distortion on high notes. Not that noticable, but enough to niggle me.

Once the updates start to roll out its going to be an incredible device.

Im wondering if an update will be rolled out when the US launch happens? why else would it be delayed? or at least im hoping the promised 60 xbox live that were supposed to be available at launch will be availble at the american launch.

Overall best phone I have ever used, the user experiance is fantastic, its just so nice to use every day, and that completely overruls any niggles I have had, which no doubt will be sorted very soon.
[HD7 General] levy9:
Had mine unlocked for 24h now and just learning the OS but what i'm seeing is fantastic! I've come from a HD2 where as soon as i got it i flashed a custom rom then ran adroid on it for ages but now i could never go back even after 24h!!!

there are a few niggles, coming from android where you had settings for everything there does seem to be a real lack of options just the basics to to get you through, i also cant see how to add a picture to a contact who isnt on my facebook?????

i agree with whats been posted before, this OS has the potential to be the best one out there it just needs to grow.
[HD7 General] xma1e:
I've had mine for 2 weeks now and love it! Yes some things are missing and there are a few bugs in the OS, but I'm willing to persiverre because what it does give it does really well.

I had an HD2 with Energy's custome roms for a year now and I am so over HTC Sense (I used earlier versions on my Diamond and Orbit too)and now the "new" HTC apps looks very dated amongst the WP7 Metro apps.

Email, something I could not really get working very well on my HD2, runs like a dream on WP7 and I'm turning into a sick email junkie (help!).

As for the screen, everyone keeps knocking this phone in favour of the Samsung, but in reality, the screen on the HD7 is better than the HD2 and can hold it's own. Might not look as good next to a Samsung, but who cares? Are you going to hold an HD7 and Samsung next to each other 24/7? No? Then you won't notice the difference.
[HD7 General] Super Chimp:
Is the email better on the WP7 than Android. The email on Android drove me up the wall with its bugs and weird behaviour. I have seen a few people on this thread mention positively the email so I am hopeful.
[HD7 General] ThePhoenixUK:
Yes, without a doubt, sure it has a few bugs that Microsoft can fix, but these will not stop me loving this device, never going back to an iPhone again, I'll be sticking to Windows Phone or Android devices from here on in, I had the 3GS then the iPhone 4 and now it's on Ebay as I got bored with it :p
[HD7 General] foaf:
You can pinch and zoom with HTML email which is fantastically useful, and keeps the email as the sender intended. From my understanding (Neowin WP7 vs Android Communication Comparison) Android doesn't do this.
[HD7 General] Super Chimp:
The main problems I had with Android was that I often had issues setting up POP email accounts on it. Also could behave oddly when picking up messages, I used to get phantom messages or it would not pick them up correctly or in some cases at all.
[HD7 General] lumpaywk:
oh yes i would, though tbh i would of sold my fish tank and got it on payg and unlocked it as o2 contract prices are so steep and the coverage i not as good as tmobile (not sure if this is the same everywhere but around where i live its the case). I will be honest if it wasn't for the fact all other devices are only 8gb i would not have gone for the hd7 but rather the omnia but there is no way i can live with 8gb. The only annoying thing is that when i'm playing games i sometimes touch the search button esp if i have the phone plugged in at the time due to the way i then have to hold it, but if you press back it goes right back to where you left off.

in conclusion it was not my phone of choice but my hand was forced by the internal storage but i am glad it was, the omnia is no better and my second choice mozart seems cheap and to smiler to my old desire. I love the size of the phone i was worried when i first saw it but the shape is like nothing i have ever seen and make it slip into the pocket easier then my old desire and yet i get all that screen.
[HD7 General] nizaamh:
Quick question guys. Does the HD7 not have a flash? I thought it does.
[HD7 General] adesonic:
Yes, the HD7 has a dual LED flash (at least mine does!)
[HD7 General] MaximilianPs:
i want 8MP Camera, that's why i didn't purchase the HD7

i'll buy the Desire HD but actually no1 have it in italy

btw, i'm very tempted by WP7, and maybe Samsung Omnia7 can be better, at least for the SuperAMOLED
[HD7 General] tboy2000:
Does the HD7 have a signal status blinking LED light eg green or red etc?
[HD7 General] tonbar:
This is very relevant to my interests.
[HD7 General] adesonic:
Yes it has a blinking LED
[HD7 General] truffle1234:
i will get my HD7 this sunday... got a good friend to buy for me in Singapore and send it over as in malaysia it will only be out in jan or feb 2011..

yeeeeepa...
[HD7 General] lancewmccarthy:
Application development for WM7

Yes, yes, yes...I'm also working on some apps for wm7, Microsoft has provided me with a whole windows phone development package (Expressions Blend 4 with Sketchflow is amazing). This is the best thing to come along for windows development in a long time.

Anyone one who is interested in developing apps send me an IM and i'll give you the link to get the tools. (you have to have a student email address or prove student status to MS)
