Love this ROM, only issue is the battery life. This ROM kills my battery, faster than other. I can sit and watch my battery drop.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] XxFerociouS:
Same here I've been having some bad standby battery life

I lose around 80 percent overnight without using it!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] waydownsouth:
Hmm, I'd be lucky to drop 1% overnight. :confused:

I'm more than happy to have a dig into it for you... There can be a number of causes, but, it's difficult to diagnose based on your descriptions.

Any chance you guys could provide some debugging info?

tweaKr has an option to generate system logs under utilities... either of option's 1 or 2 should provide enough data but option 1 is preferable as it includes the kernel kmsg

If you could put the resulting file up on dropbox or similar & send me a link via PM I'll take a look.

Thanks! :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] XxFerociouS:
You mean a log cat? Or a full dump?

Just curious, what CM nightly is this based off, or is based off the RC? I noticed the timer function for the camera is missing which was added in #177 (and fixed in #179). Also, I recall something about with this new version, you are able to update it a lot easier or quicker than Pre-Chili, and keep up somewhat with the nightlies. I am assuming you would just flash over the current version when you release an update?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] one2345shutup:
Thanks for this rom, it's very awesome! I just flashed it today and i'm liking it a lot so far, however, I am having one odd problem... whenever I make an outgoing call, or receive a call... the picture shown in the caller id is a spam ad, by spam i mean canned spam....haha i know this is weird, but here's a screenshot

I am a bit annoyed.. although its a bit humorous at the same time, any help would be great, i promise this is not a joke! any help would be great thanks haha

so I had the problem w no flash video, and I tried the command again in terminal emulator, and did not get the "no such file or directory exists" problem. Tried it out and was able to watch MLB.tv and monday night football! Thanks guys! If you can fix the error that would be cool but otherwise I love the ROM!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] one2345shutup:
okay hahah, finally changed the picture using ninja morph, thanks mexdroid team for the great rom! i think the bluetooth icon throws me off though.. although i'm not complaining, just a thought haha
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] TheNewGuy:
This is not based on a nightly. We build it directly from CM source.

We recently merged all our theme and custom changes into the source. So I can repo sync and build a new rom with all cm commits and most all our changes already included in the rom. So kinda like our own nightlies. You are correct about the commits included in this rom. I last repo synced prior to the camera timer. Also when we do release an update you will not need to wipe. It will be like a nightly. So only wipe if needed.

However, kernel.org got hacked just before we released. And android AOSP kernel is hosted/maintained on kernel.org servers. So I can't repo sync and build a new rom untill it is fixed. It has been almost 2 weeks now so hopefully it will be working again soon.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ArmedandDangerous:
Is it possible to add a few features to the camera app? Recording video with audio disabled for one, and touch to focus :)

And maybe labeling what HD means in terms of resolution. There's so many video settings that knowing the resolution and/or bitrate would be really useful. Maybe in a Help file or something :)

Anyone on mexdroid own a g2x? Hoping to see a port for this device soon.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] nickeedoo:
I really loved the speed and responsiveness of this rom... GREAT work! But I would love it if there was less eye-candy. I'm a minimalist and the visuals of, say, MIUI appeal to me more. Is there any way I can get this rom looking more like stock? If not, cool. It's still an amazing rom.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] TheNewGuy:
Just rename the .zip you downloaded... add "-notheme" to the end of the name... and flash again. for example.

"meXdroidMod_GhostChillie_AIO-notheme.zip"

That's it! :)

Waydownsouth created a way to include the different themes and other configurations in the .zip. and select what you want by changing the name. It is awsome! Look at the first page of this thread for more info.

*also* if you flashed our themed xapps then you will need to flash a stock version of gapps or they will stay themed.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] nickeedoo:
Thanks for the quick reply! Unfortunately I don't have my G2 to test it right now... the main flex cable ripped. :( I saw the part about renaming in the first post, and I thought I did it... but the GAPPS were mostly what I was talking about anyway. I wasn't sure if a particular GAPPS went with a particular rom or else the world would explode. :P
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] TheNewGuy:
Haha. Oh ok.. we will probably make an Xapps_AIO.zip soon.. but if you want stock, for now just flash stock gapps.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] GhostZini:
I can confirm that i get over a day of battery life after full charge on this rom. Thats with having it on while at work for 8 hours and major app grind before n after. I use mjybarrs settings in tweakr except governor. They consist of smartass gov, min 245 max 1117, compcache at 26%, setcpu screenoff at 245 (in tweakr script), TheNewGuys settings in kernel vm config., sd card readahead of 2048, i/o scheduler set to noop, and no voltage tuning. And dont forget to calibrate your battery and let it drain fully and recharge fully.

Ps. I got like 200 apps installed and never any lag or bs.

This rom is the best chili ever people.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] waydownsouth:
OK,

Anyone that is experiencing bad battery life on this rom, I am more than happy to review system logs & help to find the cause... if there is something in the rom that is causing it, TheNewGuy & mjybarr need to know about it...

Having reviewed the logs provided to me so far, I have been able to deduce that user installed apps have been the culprit,

not

the rom...

So, if you want something looked into, send me a PM

Thanks! :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] yogi2010:
I just flashed this ROM for the first time and am liking it a lot so far..... I can't believe it took me this long to try it out.

I am wondering how to get tweakr, I didn't see any option for it in the pre-flashing options, and I don't see in in Terminal Emulator.... thanks in advance for any help!

Edit: I do see it in system/etc, so for now I will try and see what I can do with it there...

Edit #2, haha: i think i see what my problem was, i had done a nandroid data restore on top of the ROM after flashing, and i had Terminal Emulator on my nandroid so it probably overwrote the one that came with the ROM. but i reflashed and i see tweakr now.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] misfit61871:
So I have all my voltages lowered and applied and everything is running fine no lag no issues except when I reboot then I get froze at the splash screen and have to reset tweakr. Any ideas why everything works until a reboot?

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ArmedandDangerous:
I've also got a small problem. LauncherPro takes ages to load after a phone reboot, so much so that it hangs my phone for a few minutes, and if you try to do anything with it, Launcher Pro force closes and reloads itself.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] convolution:
When I back up my apps with Titanium Backup pro, do I back up system data too or just app data? And when I restore it when I flash mex, do I restore system data too?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] GhostZini:
Dont kno why but this seems like standard practice for sum reason. Happens for me on every reboot or power on. Its pretty quick process but i cant make it go away.

Sent from a GhostChili powered G2 made by team meXdroid. Boom
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mjybarr:
After you lower your voltages, make you that it applies at start up. So double check. Same goes for smartcpu.

Pure meXdroidMod!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] waydownsouth:
It's likely that your voltages are too low at the upper end of the frequencies, which is only becoming apparent when the cpu is under sustained high load at boot.

In particular you might want to try raising the voltages around your max frequency...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] gd6noob:
what other themes are there besides the blue, girl and no theme..
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] LikeaG2root:
I have found that it is a common bug in Launcher Pro. It always has to force close after reboot for some reason. After the initial force close it works fine.

I have tried 3 launchers(LPP, GoLaunchex, ADWex). LPP is only one that does it.

Love all 3 launchers but have found that ADW is most stable of all. Go Launcher is good but eats up ram. LPP is fast but buggy.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] misfit61871:
My max freq was too low, I set it back to default of 1300 and it's rebooting fine now, thanx WDS

I applied the same settings I had on pre-ghost but apparently they were not compatible.

Heh nope, the space one is by far my favorite. Loving this rom, it's definitely perfection.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Gwanatu:
Personally for me Go Launcher EX is my favorite because it's stable like ADW, but feature packed like LPP. Just a personal preference. It's also updated pretty much weekly too.

Sent from my G2
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] LikeaG2root:
Go Launcher is great but definitely not the fastest and takes alot of ram.

Don't get how LPP has so many more options than ADW? If you mean widgets you can get "Android Pro Widget app" and use LPP Widgets on ADW.

Funny how originally I felt ADW was worst of 3 but after using all for some time I found ADW "EX" to be best!

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] TheNewGuy:
Yea me to. I have tried all the different launchers at least 5-6 times each at different times over the past 3-4 years....and I ALWAYS have come back to ADW EX. It really is the best! IMO
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Gwanatu:
Last time I tried ADW EX a few months ago it didn't have a scrollable bottom bar, and there was something else missing that I use every day, but it's been so long that I don't remember what that was now.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] TheNewGuy:
I don't remember when they added it but it has a scrollable dock bar now.

Is anyone having issues with their Gmail app? I've uninstalled, reinstalled, cleared data, cleared cache, pulled battery, did an entire wipe and reinstall of ROM - yet my Gmail app will not send emails. I receive emails fine but when I go to reply or send a new email - none of them will send. I hit the send button and it greys out and just sits there. When I exit out of Gmail while that's happening, it tells me it has saved my email as a draft. I can send via the browser since it saved it. Sync is working fine.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance =) other than that - all is working great!

(EDIT) Looked around some more and solved my problem.

Thanks Anyways Guys.

Because of yalls comments I bought ADW EX, I been rollin with LPP for over a year now, but I trust yalls judgement. Been running it a few hours and it does actually seem a lil smoother and peppy-err...

Question tho, I don't like the glass type background behind the dock icons, and I looked for a while, but couldn't find an option to make them transperant. Can anybody advise me on how to do this? Surely it has an option, I'm just over looking it.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] KnekKeR:
I just flashed Pre-Ghost Chili, and I noticed that the zooming in the browser is incredibly smooth! Normally the stock android browser is a little choppy, but on Pre-Ghost Chili it's very smooth.

The zooming is like on the iPhone or Firefox for Android. The text is a little blurry while doing the pinch gesture, and when you release the text gets reflowed to make it readable.

Not only the stock browser has this, all browsers that use the standard webkit engine(Dolphin etc, pretty much all available browsers except Opera and Firefox) have this smooth zooming. It even zooms smooth in the XDA forums expanded view. Only zooming in is smooth though, panning and zooming out is still a little choppy sometimes like on all the other ROMS.

I haven't found any other ROM that has this, and for some reason Ghost Chili AIO also doesn't have this.

I'm actually pretty surprised that no-one mentioned this(or I just can't find it).

Why is this removed from Ghost Chili AIO, and why don't other ROMS have this??

Here's a vid: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_vWKYuGxdI

It's not very clear, but you can definitely see that it's smoother than normal.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] amazinglarry311:
Great job again guys. It's been a while but I just checked out the rom.

You've outdone yourselves again, and I'm a really harsh critic.

Just so your users know, there isn't a better rom out there that has the kind of love and support your team offers.

I tweak my own roms, I've always thought I had the perfect combination to perform, but for once I'm blown away with how truly responsive and quick this rom behaves. I'll let you know if I have any complaints but so far.... And I'm hesitant to say it... perfect.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mjybarr:
Thanks bro! That means a lot to us. If it wasn't for TheNewGuy and Waydownsouth....meXdroidMod would not be where its at today. I'm very thankful for their team work and talents. Other than that...i'm stoked to hear from you and glad that your loving the ROM.

Ok,...now you are asking for something that is a little out of my league. I have only just begun to learn android java programming and I can't do this yet. I would like to learn... and I have a few other ideas that I am working on in an attempt to teach myself... but don't hold your breath. :)

If it is a feature in cm, then we can sync up with those commits and have it too. And I have had some success in asking other developers on the cm team to add certine features into cm. In fact, that's how cm got the extended rotation control added back in to cm7.... I emailed jonas larson myself. He is who wrote the programming needed for extended rotation control for cm6, and asked him to do it for cm7.....and he did! He is a really nice guy and VERY knowagleble about this stuff. I imagine that other cm team members would do the same.... so that is 1 option. The other is to help me do it... :)

As I have said before I am learning as I go... I am not a developing master... just limping along trying to act like I know what I'm talking about! :)

And that's the truth!

But I need to make sure that things are correct for the G2 before I start adding other phones. And I really am not sure I will be able to handle building for to many devices... so we will see.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] scholar79:
I had this problem when I restored the app and app data from Titanium Backup installed with the ROM. After I upgraded TB to the latest version from the Market, I then restored the app and data again. Everything worked at that point. I had other apps doing the same thing (FCing) when I used the TB included in the ROM. If this isn't your issue, try deleting the app data for SmartKeyboard Pro and reconfiguring it manually.
