fyi. in build 45 ROM Manager won't update to latest 3.0.0.7 (it stays 3.0.0.0), after unistall with Titanium and reinstalling from Market it FC's.. fixing permissions from recovery sorted it out :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] EdKeys:
cool :) seems overclocking causing wake issues is the same as when I mess with my bedroom clock I have wake issues too. :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sykopompos:
I guess no one noticed 46 that has been up for like 15 minutes now
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] :
cough cough.. downloading ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sykopompos:
Your data connection should be better in 46 and say goodbye to dropped calls :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] :
that would be great :).. too many times in last few days I had to explain to my girlfriend that I still like her and that I am not hanging up on purpose ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sykopompos:
Lies! You really didn't wanna talk to her unless she was coming over :) I took your excuse away now
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] :
hehe, you are right ;).. I wanted to play, but not with her :)

back to build 46, yep.. everything works out of the box.. ROM Manager was again downgraded to 3.0.0.0 and would not install the latest version, had to titanium uninstall, install from market, fix permissions again :)

thanks gridlock :)

I love the look and feel of gingerbread and all, but I'm always having problems with it. for instance, first it was not being able to receive pictures from my cousin with AT&T. Now when I receive pictures from anyone, the pictures are blurry and on their phone, its clear.. idk why I'm always having problems. :( I did everything the guide says....

B46 & Google Apps

All,

I have installed GB on my G2. I cannot get Google Apps installed. I downloaded Google Apps and Build 46 From the following links.

Build 46:

phones.crackflashers.com/vision/index.php?folder=YnVpbGRz

Google Apps:

phones.crackflashers.com/vision/index.php?folder=Z29vZ2xlLWFwcHM=

After I installed build 46 I restart then get Rom Manager to install Google Apps. It reboots the phone shows it installed but only takes about 1 second.

When the phone boots up again there are no Google Apps. I reboot again and still nothing.

I am starting fresh here and not using recovering from previous builds.

I have searched but was not able to find an answer to my problem.

Can anyone help?

You need to flash Google Apps from recovery with mounted /system:

1) Reboot into recovery

2) Go into the mounting submenu and mount /system

3) Back in the main menu go into the "install zip from sdcard" submenu

4) Select the "choose zip from sdcard" option

5) Browse to the location of the Google Apps zip and flash

6) Reboot, voilà

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] primatage:
Every build I've done thus far has required a reboot to get the wifi working after a fresh flash, after which point it works flawlessly.

Did you reboot after trying to get the wifi on?

No wifi either its killing me

Does the sensor rotation work properly for everyone else? I had to disable it, otherwise when going into landscape (for camera for example), it doesn't switch back. Without rotation enabled I get landscape every time I pop out the keyboard, and portrait the rest of the time, which is ok.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Halabeaster54:
Backlights don't work and neither does switching from landscape to portrait. Good build very snapppy but ill need those two things b4 I use this as a daily driver.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] adancau:
Also there's a problem determining current location in the GenieWidget (News and Weather). It stays at Waiting for location, and then it claims to be unable to get it. Also happens with one of my weather widgets. However on Maps location works fine.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] :
yep, the fix for me is in ADW EX to set Home orientation as normal and if I need landscape i open/close keyboard :).. backlight, ah well it is day over here so no problems so far.

the same was happening in previous builds (using Fancy Widget), GPS has some issues so sometimes it works and sometimes not, but well it is rc0, not complaining about it

This was built at 8am this morning so the commits/changes that were pushed into the source in the past couple hours are in there. I know there was some adw launcher changes and some new commits from cyanogen
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] :
well for now I see that backlights are back on and landscape/portrait is working again :)..

(it didn't work in OP built from few hours ago)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Novek:
wouldn't it be smart to also tell which timezone the time is from? eg. it's 2:35pm in GMT +1 right now, and cyanogen made some changes to AAC jsut 20 mins ago...

So if it's 8am GMT+1 CM7 has got much new code after build
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] witm01:
It's bound to be cwm3 (orange) or else he wouldn't have been able to flash cm7. Coming from a full wipe as described by him, the problem is most likely the unmounted system partition.

It actually was quite a "popular" problem some hundred thousand pages back in this thread ;-)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jcrompton:
If you will fix permissions with ROM Manager and then boot into recovery and then Install form Zip the GApps zip then it will work with any of the ClockWorkMods 3.0 or greater
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jcrompton:
Sorry - I seem to always be behind the curve. I have mentioned dropped calls several times (I know I haven't been imagining it) and I haven't really seen a lot of others mention it. So what's the deal with Build 46 that solves the problem ??

And THANKS !!!!!!!!!!! for all your work !!!!!!!! I love it !!!

Have you read my post on the previous page? Because it breaks down the process step by step. Reading helps when looking for answers:

Permissions should have nothing to do with the problem.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] primatage:
While you're mostly right, it's not true that he must have been using CWM 3.x simply because he was able to flash CM7. CWM 2.x can flash a Gingerbread-based ROM over a Froyo ROM just fine -- it's after the ROM is flashed that the recovery needs to be 3.x to do anything to it.

It's too bad, really; there'd probably be a lot less confusion if people HAD to use CWM 3.x from the start.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dac9:
Green.

At least all the text in the recovery screen is green. i'm assuming that's what you mean?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] witm01:
@primatage: you're right of course. Hadn't thought about the initial flashing.

EDIT: and sure enough he does indeed still have the old cwm2 on his device. so anticipating the next question of "how do I flash cwm3 recovery"...

Pick a recovery from crackflashers, push it on your sdcard, open a terminal on the phone and type the following:

su

flash_image recovery [path to downloaded recovery and don't forget the .img extension]

Then proceed with my initial walkthrough.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sykopompos:

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sykopompos:

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] primatage:
It'd be nice if that happened for us here in G2 land, because the guy just responded that his recovery is "green."

So a whole page was spent adding confusion to something all because somebody didn't read a shred of what's been posted before, and tried flashing both CM7 and Gapps with an incompatible recovery image.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sykopompos:
And yet it keeps happening over and over and over again
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jcrompton:
In his defense it is [was] a bit confusing because I initially looked at my version of ROM Manager and not the actual recovery.

YOU HAVE TO LOOK AT THE VERSION LISTED ON THE RECOVERY PAGE

At the top and bottom of the main recovery page it lists:

ClockworkMod Recovery (and then the version) v3.0.0.0(or higher)

I was initially confused when we started CM7 because I had installed version 3.0.0.7 ROM Manager Premium within my original Froyo ROM -- now it is obvious to me they are not the same.

Another issue that was probably easy to others but was an issue to me was that when I tried initially to do the Fasboot Flash instructions for a new recovery.img I was doing it in HBOOT not FASTBOOT and kept getting errors over and over again ..... so I hope maybe someone else can read this and be helped.

I'm not a developer but I've been doing this for a long time and this was one of the most difficult and least intuitive processes to follow based ont he available instructions .... not to mention the 200+ page Thread

46 is out already?

Just flashed 45... lol

Anyways, wifi calling works on 45 but is a distorted. Almost not usable unless u put ur call on speaker phone n don't run a screen off profile. Hopefully pershoots official gingerbread kernel that's due soon will fix it.

Also, no graphical glitches. Ui is so much smoother. Over all, phone is extremely snappy with no memory hang up n it appears that the cm7 kernel on 45 is new too.

How's wifi calling on 46?

The problem is they are not really reading. Just skimming through and don't really pay attention to what people are saying.

Ok, but some of us are in 4g areas and don't get 6mbps. I don't even get close to that where I am right now and I have full bars all the time in a known h plus area. One of the first cities to get it actually.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] primatage:
I know the feeling of frustration... It's extremely difficult to gauge how well something is working when there's an inherent amount of uncertainty present -- as is the case here. I'm in Seattle, and while I've seen it creep up above 4 Mbps before, I usually don't see it break the 2.3 mark, and I'll get different readings depending on what intersection I'm at because buildings tend to dictate what towers are giving me better coverage at any given point in time. I'd love to actually be able to know, FOR SURE, what the damned max attainable real-life speed is, but I'd have to round up people with the same phones (and the same software/settings/etc) in order to have any chance of doing a real test.

Because of all that, it also makes it difficult to know whether or not the ramped-up settings in CM7's build.prop are actually helping or not. The speeds I'm getting now are about on point with what I got the day I bought my phone, which are adequate, but not 6 Mbps by any means, so I can't blame anything specifically (or fix anything specifically) because I simply don't have enough information :/
