After installing CM.. in my settings /about phone /phone status it now displays my phone number as unknown when before it usually would display my actual number.. because of this I can no longer access tikl or google voice... Is this normal and is there a fix for it?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cyanogen:
If you could reverse engineer it and submit a patch that would be great.

You can set your phone number in phone settings. Its a sim issue.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] G1rome:
Ok for all the people who have gps problems just uninstall the update then install em. Your gps should be working after that thanks!

A question about functionality that seems to have changed after installing CM on the G2 - previously, when receiving a call with Bluetooth connected, the ringtone would play from both the handset speaker and the wireless headset. After installing CM, it appears to only come through the headset (and not the speaker), making it difficult to know a call has been received unless you're wearing the headset at all times.

Is there a setting somewhere I haven't seen to change this, or is this a bug / intended functionality change?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] elusivebyte:
Haha! I did this, too. I had to go to the ADW.Launcher website to figure out how to fix it. I guess it's a new feature that you can replace that button, or move it somewhere else. You can even hide the entire button bar and have more room on your desktop. You can instead create an Open App Drawer shortcut to replace the bar.

Other people have posted how to fix it, so I don't need to do that, but I will anyway in a sense because I'll explain how to revert back to the old launcher icon if you want.

If you don't like the new launcher icon, you can get the old one back by following the same steps. Download the old PNG here onto your phone:

http://jbthemes.com/anderweb/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/all_apps_button_normal.png

Long Press on empty spot on desktop, Custom Shortcut, Pick Your Activity, Launcher Actions, Open/close App Drawer. Then click on the icon button and use the Gallery app to browse to the downloaded icon. Then drag this new shortcut to the launcher icon.

Or you can use whatever picture you want.

Another feature that I didn't know about: I'm not sure it's new in this version, but it's new to me. Long press on an existing icon and drop it right back in the same spot. It opens the same editor from above and lets you change the icon, name, and activity of an existing icon! I used it to change the name of "reddit is fun golden platinum" to just "reddit" so the name fits better and is centered. I did the same for other icons, too. Very nice!

Okay..call me stupid but I can't find the Change log for RC3 ..I'm waiting for a stable build with most things fixed like wifi calling and some other stuff that was broke in the last RC builds..

Anyone have a link to this change log please?

Is there any way that I can profile what is eating up my battery? RC3 is better than RC2 but still is much worse than stock g2 or stock sense.

The temperature of my cpu generally remains the same as stock (w/ oc) however I can state anecdotally that "cell standby" and "android system" consume a greater percentage of battery than stock (and that usage and location conditions remain roughly the same).

any pointers as to what specifically is different in cm than both stock versions that may be causing this like drivers or open libs as opposed to closed vendor libs?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rraxda:
Getting ready to flash CM. Last time I did this was on a G1 so it was a bit different. I have a good amount of apps installed to the SD card. What happens to those when I do a wipe during the install here? Is there anything I should do with them prior to install?

Thanks
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] OFinch:
I just did the same thing.. first time flashing this since g1.. was on stock root with bacon bits.. anyways, yes you will have to reinstall the apps again.. and write down your market apps because it doesn't keep them in memory like it used to.. well atleast not for me.. but once you get astro, just install them that way. ROM running great btw!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dcman008:
Get a copy of titanium backup or mybackup pro, backup all your apps and data. Update to rc3 then restore your apps and data.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] juanshop:
i think finally this rom has a good battery life! :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ztmike:
I wish I would of known about it permanently deleting all my downloaded apps..

I just installed RC3 over the stock rom for the first time..

Q: How can you get the Android market to show what you have bought?

And ..it seems RC3 supports overclocking built in for the SetCPU app..not sure why people say they are downloading the overclocking stuff if its built in already?

I have the cpu set maxed at 1305ghz and 368mhz for min and has been running fine so far..on a temp of 32.4 C, although while I was setting up my phone and settings the battery I noticed was going down pretty quick..I am however running the STOCK battery..I'm still waiting on that HTC EVO 4G battery to come in from eBay from Hong Kong.

Edit: How is WIFI Calling working for you guys on RC3? I have it enabled but have yet to use it..

Edit 2: Any of you guys let it enable CyanogenMod usage tracker? It says it would help with development so I let it..Just wondering if anyone else let it get enabled..
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] WarBird87:
So does rc3 have fm radio or no? If it does where do I find it?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] infamousjax:
No it doesn't. There's plenty of apps in the market that let you listen to local radio stations.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] G1_enthusiast:

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] The Great NY:

SD problem after upgrade...

I just flashed without a wipe from Cyanogen Mod RC2 to RC3. Once everything finished my phone was working just as it was with RC2. I went into Cyanogen settings and selected to move new apps to SD card. Later I went into my gallery and half my photos did not load. I restarted the phone and then no photos would load. I then notived it told me I had no SD card. I went into Recovery to go back to RC2 and Clockwork also did not recognize my SD card. I booted the phone back up and again no SD card...HOWEVER! I am still able to mount the SD Card thru the phone to my computer and alo my files are there. Now my tells me the SD card is emptey which is obviously not the case!

Any Ideas anyone? Any help would be greatly appriciated.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rraxda:
I went to go download TiPro but my Market is stuck. It downloaded a couple of apps but now it is stuck... I can't get it to download anything else on wifi or cell. Everything just says Downloading... with no progress. I tried the Google Talk trick but that did not do anything...

Any suggestions on how to get my Market to start downloading again?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] swaggle:
UPDATE...

After further review Astro also reads the contents of the SD card but the system and recovery will not!

RC3 updated without wipe, but still no wifi tether. Also, when wifi (regular) is on and connected to my network, the network (H) icon still shows (though with no up/down activity). Is that supposed to be like that? Used to be that connecting to a wifi network made that icon disappear.

Touch to focus in the camcorder is no longer working for me in rc3 although it is fine in the camera :(
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] swaggle:
So confused...

I hope I am not over posting this issue but I got things working again...

Oddest thing...only a file manager app or mounting the G2 to the computer would read the sdcard....not even recovery would read it...if I chose anything in recovery the screen would go black untill I hit power again. After many restarts and trying to fix permissions (which failed) the system started recognizing the sdcard again. I have no idea what caused this but its working again for now. Does anyone know why the system, gallery and recovery thought there was no sdcard present? Will stay with RC3 for now...dont think i was that. Could be an IU problem (IU =Idiot User) even though I have been flashing roms since the G1 was first rooted.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] babauv:
Same here and after it does lock in, it's accurate to only about 30 m which is useless in navigation. I did a restore of the stock rom and it locked in right away.

Not sure what the solution might be since not everyone experiences this problem.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] infamousjax:
It seems to work for me but the focus box doesn't actually move... weird. Something they might want to look at. Either way, still takes great video/pics.

Hey guys i really want to use this rom...but i cannot just because of one issue....i.e. when i leave my fon connected on wifi for about half hour or so...and try to use it again....the wifi doesnt work...my fon shows that wifi is connected but nothing works(browsing,IM etc)....i then have to disconnect it and reconnect it again to make it work....P.S (i have set the wifi sleep policy to NEVER)......i dont know what is the problem....but it is there since the cm's first release on g2.....and the most surprising thing is that i dont have any problem on virtuos sense rom.....I love this rom and been trying to make it work....i have been flashing every new release of this rom just to see if the wifi issue is fixed or not.....please help me....i want to use this rom.....Thanks....

ANYONE WHO CAN HELP?????

I posted this message earlier and someone told me to use pershoot's kernel...even after that the problem is there....can anyone help me on this....
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] infamousjax:
Not sure... but I don't have that problem at all. My Wifi works perfectly. Is it a wireless-N router? Does it work ok on the stock G2 ROM? It's not CM that's the problem I don't think.

Yea the google maps update sorry =/
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] KShatzkes:
I haven't had problems with GPS until RC3. I have done some testing with it to try and figure out the problem. All observations are seen AFTER reseting and downloading new GPS data through GPS Status App, and uninstalling and re-installing Google Maps updates. Also, I have not flashed any kernels other than the kernel that comes with RC3. Here is what I observed:

When turning on the GPS through the power widget, Maps and Navigation would not locate a GPS signal, nor does a GPS icon show up in the notification bar.

When turning on GPS, either through power widget or through setting menu, while also having the "Use wireless networks" option checked as well, Maps and Navigation would not locate a GPS signal, nor does a GPS icon show up in the notification bar.

When turning on GPS through the settings menu, AND also unchecking "Use wireless networks," Maps and Navigation does locate a GPS signal, and a GPS icon does show up in the notification bar.

Even when GPS signal is located through #3, location is not completely accurate.

Using Tasker to auto-start GPS on opening of Maps and Navigation does NOT locate a GPS signal, nor does a GPS icon show up in the notification bar.

From these observations, I can only guess the GPS problem might be coming from two issues. One may be that clicking on the GPS icon in the power widget may not be turning the GPS fully on for some reason. The second issue may be a conflict between the two "My location" settings, "Use wireless networks" and "Use GPS satellites." Seems that if both the options are selected on Cyanogen RC3, the phone is having issues allowing "Use of GPS satellites" to prioritze over "Use wireless networks." I am not sure if this was the same on Stock, but I remember not having an issue with this.

Hopefully this information can help in solving the GPS issues for everyone.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] OFinch:
I have a small problem that I can't seem to get figured out that i'm sure someone easily figured this out.. So I'm running cyanogen mod with the stock cyanogen mod launcher.. I think it's ADW.. but anyways, I accidently put a app in the space of the space where you open up all of your apps. how do I remove it so I can open my apps the regular way again? lol.. thanks a lot
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] G1rome:
Have you tried installing the google maps update? Because after I did that I never had problems on my gps and o I just did that today.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] acousticsea:
You can make a custom shortcut to bring back the open/close app drawer icon. Bring up the add to homescreen menu, create custom shortcut, then launcher actions.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] KShatzkes:
Yes. Already have done that as well. The observations stated above are after doing EVERYTHING mentioned and suggested in this thread.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] quierotacobell:
You can also reset it to default settings/configurations in the backup/restore section of adw settings.

Anyone else have issues that while charging and you unlock your phone or use it real quick, the LED light stops but is still charging?? Any fix?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Pickx:
Unfortunately. GPS is still not working and battery drain is still too big. I left the device with screen off (after setting setcpu to underclock while screen is off) for about 8 hours and lost over 30% battery.

I'll give it a few more days... I really want to like this ROM.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ZeroSX:
Battery drain is completely fixed with the UV kernel that's on this forum + setcpu profiles. It's a kernel issue. GPS I cannot speak for as I haven't used it all that much lately.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Pickx:
Here's something I would love to do:

In CyanogenMod, the Quick Keys can be set to anything that homescreen shortcuts can be set to. I want to set them to music playback control (next track, play/pause etc.)

I managed to this with appelflap's awesome ButtonRemapper however it works by actually reassigning the key to something else which unfortunately requires a reboot (and one of the nice things about Quick Keys is that they are hot-swappable)

Is it possible to set Quick Keys to control media playback (maybe in the future)? Would help me so much.

edit: also there doesn't seem to be a way to reset the Quick Key assignments (i.e. make them do nothing on CM/launch the Quick Keys program on stock ROM)

What kernel issue?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rraxda:
My first install of CM for this phone was RC3, previously running BaconBits on stock with pershoots kernel. I did a complete wipe before installing RC3. For some reason I lost my speaker grill LED notifications. Should I just use pershoots LED fix to get them back or am I just missing some setting?

ETA: Came back on its own..

I found that that didn't work for me. I went to CM Settings > User Interface > Tweak Extras > Select Theme > Black. STOCK
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] homis:
I still haven't had any luck finding info about the keyboard backlighting, but the battery life so far seems to be much better. With RC2, android system was running at 45% average, now it's at 2% average with RC3. I did install the UV kernel to get the extra steps in setcpu. So far I'm very impressed with RC3, can't wait to see what comes next.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] instigator008:
On some of the earlier builds many of us noticed that setcpu's screen off profile did not seem to be working. I believe that this was the case with baconbits.

I have not tested RC3's stock kernel but I do know that Pershoot's latest UV kernel is working correctlywith RC3 and setcpu's screen of profile.

No you should not drink t mobiles marketing bull**** cool aid. This rom does alot better of a job staying on H when there is data being used. If you really wanted to drink t mobiles bull**** cool aid you would take the H and turn it into a 4G cause i can see them doing that with their next "4G" phones.

On a side note to that its really fun when i bought the phone the reps keept saying its fast cause it has "like 4G speeds" and now the same reps say "you have a 4G phone"

Hmm, lots of folks having problems. I think I'll sidestep that a bit and say that whereas I was skeptical about the need for this, installing cyanogen is probably the best thing I've done for my G2 yet. My whole phone feels snappier and the features like quick unlocking and simple interface tweaks works like a goddamn charm.

Good stuff, this.
