Hi, sorry if this has allready been asked. But does anyone else have problems downloading files using the stock browser? Everything seems to be ok but as soon as the progress bar hits 100% it says download unsucessful. If I use opera though the same file always downloads with no problems.

I currently running bulid number 46 but I have been having this problem for the last 7 days and I have always been running the most recent build.

Would apprecaite any help or advice anyone could give.

Thanks in advance

Does anyone know if the phone will register hspa+ in covered areas? I've only seen hspda connectivity so far and I'm not sure where the hspa+ areas are near me.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Mikey:
Yes, the G2 is registered in hspa+ areas. As long as the area provides those speeds.

Also remember the cities, providing the extra speeds, are strongest in the METRO area of the city. As you move further away from Metro downtown, the speeds get lower but still faster then 3g ;)

i also work/live in seattle area. fastest HSPA+ speeds i've achieved (tested obviously) have been in shoreline-ish area where ive gotten up to 8mbps. usually its in the 3-5mbps range across the I5 corridor from Lynnwood down to Sea-Tac. On the eastside its typically about the same.

#46 is GREAT! No drop calls, WiFi calling works and battery life is excellent! Looking good.

My di.fm app doesn't work unfortunately, but I think it has to do with the new music3 ... Still trying to figure out how to get it to work.

Anyone know if cyogen is going to put % counter for battery life in the new cm7? Any recommendations on an app that will overlay the battery icon in the notification bar itself instead of adding a new icon?

Everything is smooth sailing so far on 46 other than after syncing both gmail and facebook my phone will boot facebook from my sync list and ill lose a good chunk of my contacts. I believe it happens after reboots. Thoughts?

na I believe you. :). I'm trying it right now.

Let you know how it works.

alrighty, so I didnt change the settings and my friend sent me a picture, it was clear.... It's only AT&T... and sometimes AT&T doesn't send me any pictures.... I'll set the bb and ask them to send it again and make sure its clear. then ask a AT&T to send me a picture. For these settings to take effect, I should reset my phone correct?

one thing I don't like is working with the fastboot. Does it have to be in fastboot for everything to work properly or can I use recovery way and it'll work good?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] wwwhershcom:
Its in Messaging Settings, where did you get fastboot from?

I just want to shout out to Gridlock, and all of the helpful posters here, on all of their efforts! I am a relative noob to Android from BB and all I can say is WOW! When I first got my G2 I did not like it and now, thanks to you guys, I will not part with it! I'm currently on B46 and am happy as a lark! I use WIFI calling all day long and it works beautifully as it did in CM6.1. The only problem I had was that my VM is in wav format and I was a little bummed that I could not get the wav files to play, but found a workaround by using Remote Wav!

Again, thank you Gridlock and all the other helpful people here! I hope one day to be able to give back to my fellow xda'ers!

So I mentioned this problem a few days ago with 0 responses so id like to try again since I'm beginning to think its cm7 fault.

My phone was disconnected a few days ago and upon reconnecting service, My Phone Number in the settings section says unknown. I called tmobile and they send the info to my sim card via OTA. Didn't work. They suggested I put my sim in a non-android phone so that it'll update the sim with the information, didn't work. So finally they said they would replace my sim. I just got back from tmobile with the new sim and I put it in and it still says my number is unknown......I can't use certain apps because of this. Like tikl. Anyone have any ideas or experienced similar?? I might have to remove cm7 if this continues, which would stink because I really like it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sykopompos:
It is a tmobile problem

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] luis86dr:
This unknown number topic is iffy. For every cm build it doesn't show up. But it does show up for rmk's sense based rom. I've also tried all the procedures on fixing this with tmobile and no go. Not sure what's the deal but it does get annoying tp input my number after every reboot.

[G2/HTC Vision]
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Palingenesis:
So what do you suggest I do? If I take my phone in, they'll see cm7 and say that's the reason and they'll refuse to help right?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] shadowofzeus:
That is a known issue with android and t-mobile. It has something to do with t-mobile and the way it sends your phone number to your sim and the way android processes the request to update the sim.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Palingenesis:
How do you manually input the number?

P.s. so everyone with cm7 is experiencing this problem? Or majority? Select few?

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] EdKeys:
I guess I'm not understanding the urgency of your problem. My phone number doesn't show up, says "unknown" under status, but I'm still able to make and receive calls and my number shows up on others caller ID's. So what?, the software doesn't read the SIM? ...no biggie for me. I know what my number is and don't need it displayed in my phone.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] coredalae:
some apps seem to need it or smthn. anyway seems to be an issue fixed @ your carrier not in the rom.

Anyone else having troubles keeping your data connection working over 3g/hsdpa? usting 2g/wifi right now, dont need more but just checking if its just me.. (btw didnt have this problem yesterday @ villain 1.4 so its deff a rom issue.

Re: Phone Number Not Showing

Re: Phone Number Not Showing

Only a problem on

CM-Roms

. The

CM-Team points the finger at T-Mobile SIM

, however

only CM and CM-Based android builds have this issue

. Stock ROMs and Sense ROMs do not have the issue.

To make it so we don't get the typical IT World response of: "It's not our problem, it's theirs!", one only has to know that it is

only a problem on CM-Roms

. Location of problem is SOLVED, although not admitted.

It really shouldn't be terribly hard to diagnose, my IT backround tells me it's definitely a CM issue, and it's most likely related to the modified Phone.apk used over the stock unmodified one.

So far in my testing, dropping in the stock Phone apk does not fix the problem, so it's very likely in some other lines of code that relates to CM adopting the modified phone apk to its builds.

Going forward: One thing I've noticed in my troubleshooting of this issue, is that the phone does not "pull its settings" (Settings->Call Settings->Additional Settings->) until a few seconds

AFTER

you open these Addtl Settings.

Intuition tells me, this process should be running during boot, as soon as the phone gets cell signal, and that it

SHOULD

work properly.

Because the settings do not appear to be read until this option is opened manually, it could be a permissions related issue (running as system vs user).

Also, a 'workaround' could be, a piece of software that manually enters the phone number upon each bootup, or the software could use correct permissions to set the number and make it stick.

The reason this problem is still not solved, is

most

people, myself included, just don't care much, because it doesn't matter to any of their software.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] el_smurfo:
My additional settings takes a few seconds too and I have never had my number disappear in two phones and hundreds of ROM flashes. Everytime I have a weird issue like this, "no service", low data rates, etc, it's always the network for me.

Great!

I'm running B46 since last night and i'm quite impressed. Snappy, good battery life (~13 hrs since unplugged and still have 58%), fixed a lot of problems that i was experiencing on some of B2* builds.

No more problems with:

-Video files in 3DGallery (thumbnails are shown properly ).

-Camcorder (no more FCs).

-Games are running well: Air Control, Angry Birds, Blow Up, Crazy Bird, Pocket Legends, Unblock Me, X Construct (before i used to have some glitches with few of them).

-Mount USB storage on Windows 7 x64

-Screen wake up (using 368/1017, on demand, without SetCPU as it caused me some problems, even on the other ROMs).

-APN settings were detected automatically.

Thanks and respect to everyone who's working on this amazing ROM ;)

NEVERMIND, THEY'RE THERE WHEN I CHANGE THE ANIMATION SPEEDS. *FIST PUMPS*
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] primatage:
Haha, don't know about recently but it has been a while!

As for the original issue, I spent about an hour at the TMO store last week to talk to them about it, and they put me on the phone with their tech people, who admitted that it's a known issue for them that only ever happens with android phones. The tech I talked to tried sending the number twice, neither of which had any affect on the "unknown" problem -- but it did get my voicemail working again (Along with the SIM reading uknown number, I was also unable to access voicemail as it would just get a SIM-related error)

He also said that if you have a blackberry device handy, that you can throw the SIM in there and check it, and if need be, input the number yourself. Apparently, blackberries can be useful for their ability to force SIM cards to accept just about anything. When I put my SIM in an old BB Bold I had sitting around, it saw the phone number just fine.

So, as it stands now, my G2 apparently doesn't know its own phone number, but is able to access TMO Voicemail (which asks for it), and it receives calls just fine.

Interestingly, when I put my old SIM in the G2 (the SIM that was in the blackberry a year ago), it sees the phone number.

Some say it's a CyanogenMod problem, others say it's purely T-Mobile and the newer SIM cards that have been going out since around October. I really don't know, because both sides have equal amounts of evidence. Either way, I don't use Tikl or whatever the app is that for some odd reason needs to know the SIM card's phone number, so it doesn't affect me.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] witm01:
@primatage: that's interesting. But any way one puts it the fact remains that it works on other roms including stock. I know it does for me. So cm must be doing something differently - which can be changed. Again, it's not a problem for me personally, just a minor inconvenience. But there are those who would certainly be grateful for a fix.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] primatage:
Yeah, I'm inclined to think that there is something different in CM that clashes with newer SIMs.
