Loving the rom everything is working flawless. Only thing left to check is battery life. no lag no long sleep wake. im overclocked to 1210. im using cputuner with profiles.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] CB620:
Anything over 1400 causes lag and wake issues. noticed that when i was playing around with cputuner
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Kaanha:
Hey guys, thanks for this awesome GB Rom it has been next to flawless!

I have noticed a few things, like many others I've experienced the lag with the screen turning on. I'm OC'ed to 1.1GHz and noticed it as a random (though not often) occurrence. One thing I did not is when it happened it'd continue to happen, but if I held the power button down for a few seconds the screen would finally flash on relatively quick and it'd go back to working properly. I can't say if this will help any others, but it's an easy test and if it does help you out, all the better.

Also with WiFi calling, is anyone else having issues with it enabling? Before I was using CM6.x and WiFi calling worked with no issues, now it just sits there and says enabling. No error message or anything. I have tried rebooting it several times, the only thing I haven't done is re-flash the ROM. I did do a full wipe and clear when I installed the ROM, as well. I tried seeing if anyone else had this issue, but I admit I didn't read through all 102 pages of posts, so I apologize if this has been brought up and possible solved before.

Thanks again and I look forward to your updates which are sure to make this already kick ass ROM even more kick ass!

Just as a point of reference, which launchers are you all using? I tried ADW EX and Go Launcher and constantly had stability errors and FC's. The stock launcher seems to work flawlessly, but it's missing so many features that ADW EX and Go Launcher have that I just can't bring myself to switch to it, no matter how fast or stable it is.

I was wondering about the auto brightness. Didn't seem to matter what settings I made it always flickered, ended up changing it to manual brightness at like 30% or something.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] joemm:
I'm using ADW EX without any issues, also auto brightness works without flicker too.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Kaanha:
I'm using ADW EX with no stability issues at all. Have you tried doing a full wipe and clear and re-flashing the rom? I know mine went off without a hitch the first try, but I've had times that other ROMs wanted to cause me issues the first time (sometimes couple of times) flashing them.

Other then that, the only thing I personally can think of is perhaps another app running in the background causing the issue, but you'd have to do a little poking around to figure that one out.

My auto brightness does seem to dim and brighten randomly for no apparent reason, though it's not really a big issue and it doesn't do to often.

On a side note, with ADW EX when I was using CM6.x and would swipe to a new screen there was always a delay on the first swipe, like it had to reload itself into memory (I'm pretty sure that's exactly what it was doing). With the GingerVillian Rom, that delay doesn't happen at all anymore. So the memory handling in GingerVillian is top notch, IMHO.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] HYE_TECH:
Hey I'm trying to go back to Froyo. This ROM is okay but battery drain is ridiculous. 35% overnight.

I reflashed Clockwork 2.5.1.3 through Fastboot but I can't restore my Nandroid.

I get this error

E:Can't mount CACHE:recovery/command

E:Can't mount CACHE:recovery/log

E:Can't open CACHE:recovery/log

I don't want to be stuck on this ROM. Any ideas?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xomikronx:
did you wipe?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] thatruth132:
Ignore it
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] HYE_TECH:
Yea like always. i fastboot CWM 2.5.1.3, didn't work so I tried a previous version 2.5.1.1 and its now reverting. I flashed like 3 ROMS in 2 weeks, this was the worse one yet. Lags like crazy. Has potential but needs to be fixed.

I only wanted the CRT animation thats why I decided to flash this ROM but I'll see whats up with the update tomorrow.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] HYE_TECH:
Ignore what?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] joemm:
Rom has no lag for me, runs really smooth, when I flashed it I wipe my entire System from fastboot prior to flashing. I follwed the instructions for flashing from here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10529243&postcount=1

Might want to give it another shot?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Kaanha:
There's no lag for me, it runs probably the best of any ROM I've seen run, especially one in such early development. It's crazy smooth, has great memory management and everything I've tried thus far has worked, except WiFi Calling, but I'm tinkering with that.

I did a full wipe before flashing this ROM and all went perfectly smooth. It even went through it's set up process considerable faster than any other ROM I've used.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dictionary:
He meant ignore all those warning messages

Also, this ROM doesn't lag at all. Maybe you should try lowering your OC from 1.5, or anything about 1.2ghz. You'll find it isn't needed for the day to day, and unless you're gaming, you won't need to go above 1.113ghz. Unless you are trying to impress people with your clockspeed, when in the everyday activities, the difference in negligible except in battery consumption, lol.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] MrTeddyChills:
For some odd reason I am having gps issues?

It wont lock
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rmcsc:
As previously stated some 600 times in the thread: reboot your phone.

I noticed that even on 1.209 GHz the phone somehow lagged at turning on the screen. It was weird though, since I just hit the power button again to "turn it off", pressed it once more and it turned on. It was constant, but only happened after I OC'd to 1.5 GHz and "came back" to 800 MHz?

Another thing, but this can be solved by changing how I use the phone: if autobrightness is on and I open the phone (instead of simply unlocking then opening), brightness sits at full for the duration of use, no matter if I'm in a dark place or not. Perhaps a CM7 bug. Nothing huge though.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Troggie81:
Just noticed this morning that my screen brightness fluctuates a lot while on auto, even in a constant brightness environment.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] HYE_TECH:
Yeah, I got that now but I did ignore it and tried to nandroid but error messages kept coming up idk but it worked with 2.5.1.1. Im back on froyo.

Yeah I did lower it 1ghz and even tried it at 1.2ghz (it was better but still stuttered). I don't usually OC because I don't need it. I don't do much on the phone but web games and phone. It wasn't good. Live wallpaper was going in and out of black. I always wipe entire before I flash and I didn't like it one bit plus the battery drain. I have system panel installed and I didn't see anything out of the ordinary that would cause my batt to drain 35% overnight.

I'm on Enomther's rom now and i would unplug BEFORE i got to bed and it would be @ 100 when I wake up. Seriously that's why this ROM was a turn off.

I may give it another shot. I just love that freaking CRT animation hahaha.

How's ur battery life?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] HYE_TECH:
Yeah mines didn't lock on neither when I was on the ROM. In maps I was 20 meters accurate but GPS didn't lock on in Navigation.

Also i flashed pershoots kernel, stuck at white HTC screen
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dictionary:
Which Live Wallpaper? I'm not experiencing that at all. I'm getting pretty good battery life, not as good as 6.1.1, but still really good. This has always happened. 2.1 had great life for me with my n1, then 2.2 came out and it was a little worse at first, now 2.3, lol.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dictionary:
Make sure you flashed the right kernel, as he has a ton. I haven't seen any recent ones though.

UI tweaks, like maybe in Spare Parts setting the animation speed to something other then Normal? That'll do it. If not, what exactly?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] TheShoura:
lol yeah his kernel doesnt work with GB based ROM yet

Well there you go lol

Hahahahahaha. That'll do it, lol.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] PanCubano:
I had troubles flashing this rom at first. It would boot loop upon booting it up for the first time, but, all I had to do was just format /system and /data from recovery and flash it again to get it up and running

After that, its been smooth sailing. This rom feels very much complete and leaves you with that feeling that you don't have to take shortcuts here and there just to get certain things to work.

Btw, I read somewhere that the screen on animation lags when you overclock the cpu. All I had to do was just set a screen off profile at 245/245 and leave the cpu at 1516/1017 conservative and so far I haven't experianced anything of the sort.

I was using the microbes livewallpaper. I wonder why my battery drained the way it did. The colors on the rom really do stand out. I have a Vibrant running GB right now and this ROM looks almost as good.

I know what you mean about the battery. Its a hard decision. U like the rom so much but then its the battery than I can't stand. I'm reading so many positives bout this ROM bout to try again.

I had a question, is the rom itself set to 1.5ghz on boot?

No. 806/245

1.4 is running great on my G2.

So far it seems a lot better than the last stable CM release I just replaced (6.1.1). The on/off animations are working just fine for me by default, and look awesome!

Nice work!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] juanshop:
so im going to try this rom, but im not clear, if i don't like it, thing that i doubt... how do i go back to my cyano 6.1.1?

thanks!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dictionary:
Make a nandroid with your current recovery (will be green). Then, do a full wipe (data, cache, dalvik), and flash this ROM. If you like it, you should go ahead and flash the newer clockwork Recovery(orange) (found in the Original Post of this thread) and continue on. If you decide you don't like this ROM before you switch

to the newer recovery, simply for a full wipe again (data, cache, dalvik), and restore your nandroid. If you flashed the newer recovery already, then just open up ROM Manager on this ROM. Flash the recovery from there. Once it says ok, reboot into recovery. Do a full wipe as above, and then restore your nandroid.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] juanshop:
im confused! lol so i can flash this rom with clockwork 2.5.3.1 ? and then i change to 3? what? lol
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dictionary:
You can flash it with 2.5.1.xxx yes .. but you won't be able to flash anything else after that, like GAPPS (if you need to with other ROMs), etc. You won't be able to make a nandroid backup, you won't be able to mount the system, etc. Basically, you'll only be able to test the ROM out as is, until you flash the CWM 3, if you decide you like the ROM.

your phone has an app already installed via tmobile for wifi calling, open it, turn it off.

Unless ur talking bout GPS.. idk wtf is wrong it it
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] JustAnotherNewbie:
I don’t think that WiFi Calling is the problem. I have the same random rebooting problem, but I uninstalled WiFi Calling from the start since I cannot use it, and because it seemed to eat resources on a previous ROM months ago. (I am tied to AT&T for the time being, rather unwillingly.)

It could be that it contributes to the restarting; or,

It could be that there are two or more issues that cause the random reboots and that WiFi calling is one of them.

I have no evidence that it is either. To be fair though, I’m a Newbie, and I could be wrong.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Bronz_Most:
It's a problem that I've had since I started running CM, and it's not a big deal just annoying but:

When you want to link a picture to your own contact profile, you create your own contact (call it "Me" or something) and then link it up by matching your phone number (in Call Settings > Additional Settings) to the number of the created contact.

If I do this, surely enough I get the desired result by having a picture next to my own text messages. That is until I reboot, then I just get a gray square next to my texts, not even a blank contact card with the little android in it. So then each time I reboot I have to go into my settings and matchup the number again.

Like I said not a big deal, but somewhat annoying.. I don't have this problem with Sense ROMs, I know Sense gives you your own contact card to begin with which I think is a lot easier.

Any thoughts on how to prevent this?

Thanks
