Just flashed to 0302 yesterday and I'm having an issue with my phone going to sleep and waking. Can't really explain it so heres a video.

Any ideas?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jckeyser:
What is your screen timeout set at?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] madquack:
Every single time I try to flash 03.02.2011 CM7 and the GAPPS included in the first post, it installs fine not a single problem but the moment I enter my email and password it instantly loses 3G and I am forced to use WiFi. Is this happening to anyone else?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] danbula:
What I'm seeing is the TV on/off animations... you can deactivate them under Cyanogen Settings.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mercrapper:
I don't have an answer, but I think the problem is not the crt animation, but how quick the screen seems to time out. You can't even set the screen to time out that quick. The quickest you can set the time out is 15 seconds.

btw - I am running 0302 without this issue.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dedian:
You can see his finger hitting the power button, it's not timing out.

I agree on the crt animation

Edit: Here's a Nexus One doing the same thing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e9c7Sf2y_rg
[Hero CDMA Android Development] andythegreenguy:
I had the issue where the market was not showing apps on my phone, I uninstalled the Market updates and that fixed the issue.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] NewYorkLaw:
3/2 is running great for me.

For those who want to know, look what I can do:

In my car - connected to bluetooth, while streaming Slacker Radio, I can have google navigation giving me directions, while I have the camcorder acting as a dash cam, and take a call. After the call, all else resumes.

I have not been able to do all of this at the same time with prior roms.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] vayman:
Same here duce. I haven't tried the long press next/prev for media, but I am having the same issues w/ the stock dialer.

I'm not sure but he may be just wiping the caches and dalvik and not doing a "full" wipe before updating. See the following posts from firerat's thread:

[Hero CDMA Android Development] PhntmParadox:
Just noticed something that hasn't been an issue on the previous releases.

I use Swype. Double tapping a word brings up a list of other possible words you might have meant to spell (Word Choice Window).

In this release (3/2) the double tap brings up the word choice window, but on top of that brings up the Android's cut/copy/paste menu. I can hit the Back key to minimize the cut/paste, but then the word choice window is deactivated (choosing a word results in the "blue box of doom"). Hitting back again gets rid of the word choice window, and the keyboard retains all functionality.

Has anyone else noticed this? And is there a way to manipulate Android's cut/paste menu behavior (like come up after a long press rather than double tap)?

Thanks.

Ewww, someone got Gingerbread all over my Hero!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mid3vil:
I am not sure what he is doing, but when i've tried firerat's for the aospGB builds, I have always tried it with a full wipe (format boot,data, cache, system) and wipe dalvik-cache. The rom boots great but always drops the DL's from market.

Was tempted to manually backup/install the apps but decided to just stick without Firerats. On the other hand for the froyo builds, firerats has been working great.

currently running 2.3.3
[Hero CDMA Android Development] RVDigital:
Here's what my Battery use looks like so far. This is with minimal use.

It looks like Maps is taking a good chunk of it. Although, GPS use and Maps use are no where near aligned, so I don't understand whats at work here. Im trying to figure out why the phone is staying awake so often when the Screen On time is minimal at best.

Is anyone else seeing a similar pattern?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
Check your partial wake-lock in Spare Parts. It'll probably say Android System but if it says something else, then that's it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] vayman:
Just use TB to backup your apps. It backs them up to a file on your SD and all you have to do is install TB from market and then restore your apps. I've been doing it for as long as I can remember and it works great! :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:
It appears, that for most using firerats if you do a complete wipe (system, data, cache) and install of new rom and gapps, you will probably have to do a market fix. If you just install the newest rom iteration overtop a rom with a functioning market - just wiping cache and dalvik - your market should function without needing to do a fix. That has been my experience over the past 2 months flashing aosp's gb roms. YMMV.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 24601:
+1 Also, others have found ways to install various apps into the rom pre-flash. Though that requires a level of sophistication beyond my 6-pack mentality :p

Sorry for the double post, Vayman is like a ninja :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] 808Bill:
+1 My experience as well.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] stanltod:
I think the swype issues are swype related not ROM. Maybe a swype incompatibility with gingerbread. I've had problems ever since the new standalone swype beta installer. I get blue box of doom and the "wrong device" message even with a legit install. Happens every time I reboot or change swype settings. The double tap quits working then too. To fix I restore data only with TiBU. It's such a pain that I've quit using swype till they fix it and am now using swiftkey with no issues. It's only speculation but I think swype made changes to stop piracy and in the process broke it for many that were legitimate users and part of the beta group. Their loss.

If anyone is successfully using a valid current swype beta install with this rom I would sure be interested in hearing how and what version.

Having the same double tap issue (Swype 2.15.56.14870.t100)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jckeyser:
The Swype issues are not ROM specific. Just make a Titanium backup of Swype (app + data) and restore it when you encounter issues after rebootong or a fresh flash.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] PhntmParadox:
I tried a restore and things are the same.

To think about it another way, Android's copy/paste menu is more persistent than it has been in the past. And that has nothing to do with swype.

...............

Ewww, someone got Gingerbread all over my Hero!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
When the gb changed from 2.3.2 to 2.3.3 the swype had to be installed from scratch, a few tried TB restore to no avail. I have version 2.17.59.15552 and it works fine, I never double tap so I can't speak to that.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
Smartass is a tweaked version of interactive so the performance difference should be negligible. The reason people like it is because it sets the screen off max to 352(for battery), and the screen on min to 528(for performance). Personally I have been using ondemand or interactive 264-729. You should lock home in memory to make your launcher happy, and personally I like surface dithering, makes stuff look pretty and the performance difference is almost nonexistent, ymmv.

came in to also post up about this.. my battery life is TERRIBLE w/ this 3/2 build..

i was able to use my phone pretty heavily for calls, some gps, and some pulse news reading w/ previous builds, and it would finally be in the ~20% range after a full day of that.

now, my phone batt is dropping like a rock!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
It has to, even the cm6 roms had known bugs if you turned that off. If you hate that rotation just add a drop down toggle and turn it on when you want it.

Check the build.prop for it, I recall seeing 270 in there. Don't know if that will disable it though.

I've actually just put the "turn off screen rotation" into the notification power widget because I like 270 when in the car (volume buttons on top) otherwise I prefer 90 in almost all cases.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] stayclean:
That bug was just if you disabled Auto-Rotation from the Display settings, turning them off from Cyanogenmod Settings was the workaround.

Phone froze...

So, I was talking on the phone via my bluetooth, everything seemed to be working fine and suddenly the phone disconnected. As I was driving, I did not check what exactly happened, but when I reached home... I saw that it was stuck on the phone screen, as if I was still on the call and everything was just frozen. I had to remove the battery to restart the phone.

Any thoughts?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jasonmaloney:
I never really understood the appeal of this. First, people were big on disabling perflock so that they could set their own CPU speed. Then they came up with the smartass governor which does mostly the same thing.

I was under the impression that the entire purpose of perflock was to push higher frequencies during use and underclock when the screen was off. Was their really a reason to shift this to the governor instead? Is it more efficient?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jasonmaloney:
Was having weird issues here too on the CM nightlies. As I understand it, the Bluetooth stack comes from Android upstream, and they sometimes push updates in new versions that break things. We did just update to the 2.3.3 upstream.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] BlaqkAudio:
It's basically combining the idea of sleep profiles with the kernel governor. With smartass, there's no need to create a screen off profile in setCPU since it will automatically underclock your phone to either 352 MHz or your min speed (whichever is lower) to save battery but allow it to still perform certain tasks (say playing music or running a GPS tracking app). I don't recall anything about smartass setting your min while screen on to 528 MHz, I thought it performed exactly like interactive, where it would stay at min speed unless it detected activity at which it would scale up to your max speed.

EDIT:

Smartass was also supposed to stay at lower clock speeds more often than interactive.

If you have a copy. could you zip it and put it up here plz...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] CrashV2010:
Thanks buddy !!!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jasonmaloney:
You misunderstand. Boot-time perflock automatically sets min/max to pre-defined values for screen-off (264/264 if memory serves) and screen-on (480/528).

So first we found a way to disable boot-time perflock while booted and enforce our own global min/max values. And then profiles were added. And then smartass was added to do much the same thing that boot-time perflock originally did. I just thought it was a little silly to go full-circle like that, even if it did allow for greater flexibility.

I wish CMparts had an option to use and boot-time perflock settings. Then we could have this benefit with any governor (especially since darchstar's cm-kernel doesn't even have smartass).

Bear in mind (as it has been mentioned many times), the Battery Stats are loaded in the /Data partition. e.g. If you change the ROM and wipe this partition (as most require), you start all over with "stats" and recalibration.

Also, not trying to be a D**k, but the Wiki (that very large READMEhttp://bit.ly/ecG3Nyhttp://bit.ly/ecG3Ny link on the front page 1st post of this thread/ROM) is your friend. I say this because there is A TON of useful info on there, not just Battery and Changelog.
