YES, I thought it was only me but I definitely have the same issue. I feel like it is a ROM thing because no other ROMs gave me this problem. I tried tweaking the delay between the screen going off and the phone locking but I still have the problem of unresponsiveness when the phone is unlocked. It actually is quite annoying
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] WarBird87:
so is there anything new on nightly 84? or is it just performance and bug fixes?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] FrenicX:
Are you guys using beautiful widgets? The weather notifier on wakeup takes a second to clear after tapping again.. if its malfunctioning it might not even clear at all. Just a thought.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] KCRic:
A known issue with other phones was setcpu screen off profiles. Aside from performance and *i think* userspace, all the other govs. automagically clock down to 245 when the screen is off or there is no activity (unless you use LWP's). Setting a screen of profile causes the app to use cpu power in order to check the profiles and also to switch from one profile to another. Being a lower priority than anything being tasked by the system, it's one of the last things to be completed. So not only is the processor locked at 245 but everything takes forever to complete before it can ever be clocked up.

It doesn't save battery power and all it does is create lag - there's no logical reason to have anything other than a battery level and temperature profile. That doesn't seem to be the issue here though, it's more like it 'grounding' itself so electron transfer won't occur since him, the table and thus - the phone, all have the some charge. The phone is on and the cpu is clocked to at least 806 so lag isn't the culprit.

I finally got a min to look into my problem.

As you may know, and from my post i posted along time ago in this thread.. the keys are mapped as a t9 layout.... or something.

say for instants you were adding a contact with the keyboard out, while typing the phone number you have to use the alt key to get the numbers.

This annoyed me :mad: so I read and figured out a quick hex edit fix.

If you use this file, you no longer need to push or hold the alt key when entering numbers.

I don't use to many features of the keyboard, so this might interfere with some other features /things, and or break em.

Simply rename the file to vision-keypad.kcm.bin (dont not extract it)

mount system as rw.

rm /system/usr/keychars/vision-keypad.kcm.bin

cp "path to the kcm.bin file" /system/usr/keychars/vision-keypad.kcm.bin

remount system as ro... and your done.

Thanks and sry if this breaks something. I havent noticed anything yet. :)

Cannot play video in Facebook

Hi,

I installed CM 6.1 and cannot play Facebook videos (YouTube Videos play fine) with the error "Sorry, this video cannot be played"..

Already factory reset and installed adobe flash player a couple time...

I had the same issue with my G2 stock ROM but the videos play fine on Virtuous Desire Z ROM's...

Any idea how can i fix the issue ???

Thanks in Advance...

ok so i have a tmobile g2 and it has the stock radio....i was wondering what radio u have that gives good gps performance and battery life....assuming u also have the tmobile g2
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] stshannon:
Let me start off by saying, i did "Google", i did "Search". I'm an avid user of these forums (mostly in the Nexus forum), and am fairly competent in rooting/modding my phones. I have two phones (Nexus One, and Mytouch 3g 3.5mm) rooted, and run Cyanogen on both, absolutely LOVE Cyanogen.

I am going to receive a new G2 (T-Mobile USA) soon, and am trying to prep myself for root. The problem is after doing my search through XDA here, and Google, and wiki's, I've found at least 3-4 different methods on rooting the G2 (not including the several early tutorials while the process was still being perfected). I can tell some of these "permaroot" methods are possibly old, and outdated.

My question is (and i ask here, because in the Nexus Development forum, the Cyanogen thread is the place to get questions answered), what is the most current, or proper way to root the G2.

If it is dependent on my radio, and version i get from T-Mobile, i can provide those details once i receive the phone.

Again, out of the many methods for rooting the G2, which method (links here would be great if you have them) is the most up to date method.

Any help on this before i receive my phone would be greatly appreciated so i can study up, and get mu ducks in a row before my phone arrives.

My current thoughts are to use the tutorial for rooting over at CyanogenMod Wiki for HTC Vicion>Desire Z..... any thoughts, or reasons i should not?

I MUST HAVE MY CYANOGEN! <smirk>

<edit> after reading through that wiki, there's a line, "Before you begin, if VISIONary is installed on the HTC Desire Z, uninstall it before continuing.", but no explanation on how to tell if i have VISOINary installed or not..... How to tell if i have VISIONary pre-installed?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] zaelia:
Visionary was an app used to permroot it is not preinstelled and is not needed at all use the wiki guide
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] stshannon:
TY for the response... so judging from the lack of response, i would assume that the proper (or most up to date) method for rooting would be to use the aforementioned HTC Vision/Desire Z method on the CyanogenMod Wiki as i stated above? Going to go with that method i believe unless someone pipes up and says not to.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] primatage:
Yes the Wiki is a good guide -- it's been edited and re-edited, it's safe, it works, and it's got everything in one place.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] microb0i:
I also agree. Even though it's a little more tedious than a "one-clicker", it's probably the safest way to get permroot on g2. Especially helfpul if going to cm6
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] htcdesirez1:
hi, just rooted my desire z and thinking of getting cyanognen

however I cant help but notice some problems people are having such as camcorder, video playback etc.

could someone please confirm the "known" issues that are consistent and not just one off problems that individual people have.

or shall I just wait for cyanogen 7 official to come out...btw does any one have a clue as to when this is

thanks from a proper newbie
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] stshannon:
I'm not sure how much of a help this is going to be however, i run CM 6 on two phones, a Nexus One, and a MyTouch 3G, and both work flawlessly.

I don't get my G2 until Tuesday, but based on the experiences I've had with my other phones and CyanogenMod, I plan to Unbox, Log In, then Shutdown and ROOT, and slap on CM6 immediately.... no questions asked.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dustrho:
I'm running 6.1.1 Stable on my G2, and I don't have any issues to report. It's stable as can be and everything just works. I tried CM7 and wasn't too thrilled with it, as there are still a good number of bugs/issues that need to be fixed.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] eRajesh:
Umm is it just me or the Trackball to wake option does not work on CM6.1.1 on the Z?

Is GPS working well on 6.1.1? As well as on the Stock ROM in terms of lock time etc?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] KoubaK:
Mine takes a little longer than usual to lock-on the signal... but nothing I can't handle :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] GermanGuy:
The reason I am asking is I am still traumatized from the GPS fiasco on the Samsung Galaxy S. I had the captivate. So GPS functionality is a sensitive issue for me. I will never buy a Samsung phone again.

I would like to take a moment to say, Thank you, and all is well, running CM6 on my G2.

I got my G2 yesterday, and spent 5 hours rooting it. The problem arose while using the guide located at the CyanogenMod Wiki for rooting the G2.

I got to the gfree -f step, and it would not powercycle the eMMC. I spent a good 3-4 hours with this problem.

I was finally told to follow a different guide located at XDA Developers for rooting the G2.

After about 20 minutes using this guide, i had a Perma root/Eng HBOOT G2. YAY ME!

Another 15 minutes, i had CyanogenMod 6.1.1, and Gapps running.

Another 10 minutes, i have HTC_IME Mod keyboard, and Pershoots OC-UV Kernel.

I would like to confirm, EVERYTHING working, WiFi, GPS, Bluetooth, MMS, etc etc... EVERYTHING seems to be working perfectly.

This is my third phone with CM on it, and i cannot thank you and your team enough.

When i got my g2, i spent maybe 5 minutes with it out of the box, before i started my root process, i HAD TO HAVE MY CYANOGEN!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] GermanGuy:
Installed CM 6.1.1 on my G2 2 days ago and everything is working great. Absolutely love it. I also installed the Metallic glass theme which compliments it nicely. I was worried about GPS functionality but GPS works on CM as well as it does on the stock ROM. Hard to believe I stayed with the stock ROM this long.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] -FuRBz-:
I changed kernel from cy to permshoot, and then went back to cy and now all the pics that I receive thru mms come all blurry

Suggestions?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xkurtx:
Thanks so much. I've got it right.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] -FuRBz-:
Anyone?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] WarBird87:
go to messaging, then open the settings, then scroll down to "custom user agent" then make sure its on default android,... see if that works
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] -FuRBz-:
I checked that and its already set at default android
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] KCRic:
Which one from pershoot, is it the latest one? That one is meant for gingerbread only. Try this one. It's the lastest for froyo based roms.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] -FuRBz-:
no it wasnt the latest one, im thinking maybe ill do a clean wipe and reinstall cy ?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] WarBird87:
you can do that also

I'm running this rom on G2. I have it overclocked 1.5ghz at what temp should I set the tepm override in set cpu?

just installed cyanogen on my desire z but like a total noob i forgot to save my contacts somewhere. now ive lost them just wondering if I restore the nadnroid backup will the contacts be available again?

Add all your contacts to google contacts in the contacts menu and they will automatically sync across all roms.

Is there a way to fix the lag/jitter when flipping through ADW? Its something I've noticed sence the early builds. Not a deal breaker but would like it to be smooth like the stock one.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] FallingEdge:
Excuse my ignorance on this but I have been reading various threads and it looks like that ROM Manger 3.0+ doesn't work on this version of CM? Does that mean I need to downgrade?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] -FuRBz-:
rom manager 3.+ is for CM7.. you have to downgrade to get cm 6.1.1
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] htcdesirez1:
thats weird.. i used rom manager 3.0.0.7 and have successfully flashed cyanogen 6.1.1.

although the clockworkmod recovery was 2.5..
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] stshannon:
If you Nandroid restore, Yes, everything "should" be exactly as it was when you made your Nandroid. And then you can do as david279 suggests, and make sure all your contacts are synced with Google, then when you do change roms or wipe etc, your contacts will automatically re-sync to your phone from Google.

Menu>ADW Settings>System Preferences>Scrolling Cache (or depending on your version of Cyanogenmod, and whether your ADW is a system app or an installed apk, it may be Menu>Settings>ADW Settings>System Preferences>Scrolling Cache) and set that to Disabled (you can try low quality as well). Its "SUPPOSED" to increase performance, however there is a bug with it and it does not work properly.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jomaxwel:
That worked like a charm. Home screen reacts way better with it switch off. It should be like that as default. Thank you.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] htcdesirez1:
i am using setcpu with cyanogen but get the feeling the screen off profile isnt working.

i have the setting for screen off with 245 (min and max) but i was monitiring my battery and within 1 hour the battery dropped 4%. seems quite a lot for screen off.

and do i need to disable perflock (have no idead what this is btw)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] OriginalGabriel:
To see if its working, when the screen is off run 'cat /proc/cpuinfo' from and adb shell, it'll report back the current cpu speed

thanks, so im guessing the bogoMIPS is what i should be looking at.

i ran the command and got 163.57 for bogoMIPS when it was on screen off..

then ran the command while screen-on and got 511.

so it all looks good...however i done a little personal test last night. the phone was fully charged and left it the screen off over night, when i woke up the battery had decreased by 40-50%. this seems alarmingly too much. wifi was on but that's it.

also i used the command adb shell cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_cur_freq while screen on and am getting maximums 768000 when it shuld be overclocked to 1GHz

I need to know why the E/H/3G keeps going away and all I have left is bars. I have no data service when this happens. And to get out of this funk, I have to go into airplane mode and back out of airplane mode.

Is there a reason why my phone isn't connecting back to the network?

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] hokes:
I'm not sure if this is a known issue or whether I'm the only one this happens to, but if I open up the clock/alarm app and tap a few times anywhere on the screen, the app fcs. Is it just me? Not even sure if this is worth being a reported issue because it doesn't effect anything else on the phone.

My battery is draining a bit quicker, even without the OC on the processor. And also, I'm getting really bad download speeds. I normally get about 6mbps at work, I was only getting about 1.5mbps consistently after flashing. Still a great rom though, looking forward to the next version and fixes.

LED Notifications

I've seen the issue asked in here twice but no response. Everything seems to be working great for me except the LED notifications. I'm guessing it's a setting buried somewhere that I'm not finding but I've been digging like crazy.

Been on Cyan roms since my G1, love them. Got the G2 at release and was really starting to hate it without CM...Thanks!

+1 on the GPS issues. I am getting a lock after 1-3 minutes, but the precision is 20-100 meters. In general, I got a lock in a few seconds with accuracy of 5-15 m under the stock ROM.

There was a GPS outage or disruption predicted for today (sunspots?), so maybe give it a day or two to sort itself out.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] pmstc:
The wifi calling app is draining my battery.

I am not sure if this is a problem with cyanogenmod or the app itself.

I don't even have wifi turned on, and I'm certainly not using the wifi calling app. I've even force closed it. It should not be running at all. (monitored my power using powertutor to find this out)

Just a little FYI for cyanogen. I definitely want wifi calling, but I would imagine that you don't want it going out in an official build if it's draining the battery at a significant rate. I want wifi calling, but not that bad. Maybe t-mobile will patch the app (if the app is the problem) and then you can include it in cyanogenmod.

Is this all "you kids" do anymore, is flash a ROM and solely base the user-experience and quality of the build on Quadrant Benchmark test scores?

This is really sad to see in a "day old" thread... :rolleyes:

Who cares if you're scoring higher or lower on one build than another, it's not about MHz, GHz, or points in some bull**** phone exam. C'mon fellas... really? :)

Anyway, excellent work Cyanogen... this "RC1" is wonderful! I have been testing it with the 1.8 GHz kernel from Flippy, and thus far... flawlessness!

I have played with a lot of your "CyanogenMod Settings" and almost all of them work so far, which is pretty amazing! Thanks.
