Could people give feedback on their battery life using this ROM please?

I'm finding that even with a 1.51Ghz OC, it's astonishingly good. I'd just like to see other's opinions.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Lennyuk:
My battery life seems the same if not better than on CM 6.1.1
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Slotrat:
You have to mount /system and /data in Recovery before you install gapps and keypad-fix, it's in the thread written multiple times before...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Lennyuk:
or just flash the new 1.2 which includes gapps all in the one .zip
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] thatruth132:
same here after heavy use , with hd and 3d games downloading a rom , seems to be better than all roms :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] colorcopies:
WiFi isnt working on mine. Also, do you expect to have the wifi calling in the near future for this rom?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] CrimsonDeath:
Hey Guys!

First of all a big thanks to all of you who are working hard to bring Gingerbread to the Vision!

Yeah, I'm having the same problem, it doesn't find any Hotspots and just turns itself off.

Any ideas to what might cause this problem?

Cheers
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Naimand:
I think it is a bad module file.

Go to older version via file manager and copy /system/lib/modules/bcm4329.ko to desktop or wherever and push to /system/lib/modules/

All is well on my end after doing that.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] thatruth132:
can you post your module file i already updated with no backup
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Lennyuk:
Not had any problems with wifi since upgrading to the latest radio at all.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] spotly:
but now can istall with the old saw that GAPPS recovery included ? true
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] CrimsonDeath:
Thank you very much, worked like a charm for me!

Well, I just downloaded the Gingervillain 1.1 rom and took it from there.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] spotly:
I can flash from the rega old recovery
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Bzerk1:
possible bug

wifi is not working. everytime i try to add a network it turns off.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] CrimsonDeath:
As Naimand pointed out it's probably a bad module.

Solution that worked for me can be found two posts above yours :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Slotrat:
Is that a question? There's no question mark... :confused:

All you need to know is in the first post of the thread. You need new 3.0 CW Recovery (it's in the first post).

Thanks for the new version 1.2, its GREAT! :D :D :D

I have only two wishes for next version. The first is to include the keyboard patch for non G2 keyboards, and the second is to be able to wake/unlock with trackpad.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] arashi:
Flashed all fine but like in other cyanogens four buttons under touch screen don't work and patch for cyanogens 6.x don't work either (europian (russian official) desire z) .

May be anyone found solution?

W/o this rom is totally unusable..
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sanfran:
Great Rom and runs very smooth so far. I have the same wishes, plz the keyboard fix and the trackpad wake!

KR Robert
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Lennyuk:
The softkey fix for CM 6.1.1 will work on this rom (well that is what people in our IRC channel have said). Trackpad wake will probably feature when its added back into the CM tree, unless HomerSP fancies adding it in before then :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] wileykat:
I'm sure I read the other keyboard patch works?

Edit,.... too slow

For those with USB driver or ADB driver issues, there is a new revision of Google USB driver (rev.4) you can try it out. I’m currently at work and can’t do that.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] demanche:
Do the 4 hard keys below the screen not work in 1.2? I really want to re-try this rom but I don't think I could do without them.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Lennyuk:
I tried the PDAnet fix myself last night

If you use USBDReview to remove all android and all HTC drivers (probably around 10 drivers in total) then install pdanet, insert your phone when that installation tells you to it should then find all the drivers it needs (except one, but no idea what that is for).

You will then have a working USB Mount and ADB (I know at least 4 people who did this yesterday and all now have it fully working)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] nprussell:
The 4 hard keys work fine, and have since 1.0! O.o
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] nprussell:
Someone has just pointed me in the general direction of the USB problem for 64 bit windows. I think it's fixable, but will require a re-compile.

If the fix is successful, I will upload the commits to the CM7 source too.

Will be tomorrow before i get to test this btw.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ante0:
They do not work if you use a Nordic Desire Z.

You would have to push working keychars/keylayout from a rom that works with the nordic Z.

I have to do this, it's the same with CM6.1 roms.

The keychars are located under /system/usr/keychars

Keylayout (to get nordic letters working, like ÅÄÖ) are in /system/usr/keylayout

I would make a flashable zip, but I haven't looked into the CW3.0.0 scripts yet, as the older ones don't work with CW3.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] nprussell:
Could you thoroughly explain the problem you're having, and I'll definitely look into resolving it for you.

Thanks!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Lennyuk:
I have mentioned this to the powers that be, can't promise it will be included though as so far your the only one who has any need for it the /data size on the phone is more than enough for almost everyone else.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] nprussell:
To be totally honest, it wouldn't be difficult to integrate apps2SD, but the internal storage on these things is massive - I don't know why you'd need to use apps2sd.

If you're sure you want it, and I see another person wanting it, I'll put the effort into sorting it as a flashable option!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] thatruth132:
i do need it after restoring my apps with titanium last night after flashing 1.2 i got low storage space after moving some apps over sd i was ok but i do need and willing to pay for a updated buildwith apps2sd inculded
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ThaGeNeCySt:
I'm really on the fence here... on one hand, I'm dying to try Gingerbread... on the other hand, I'm so accustomed to the CM6 customizations that I'm not sure if I'm willing to lose them (like the lock screen gestures.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] thatruth132:
i also forgot to say , i dont know if it was the updated apn list but i am getting better speeds in my house where as i didnt even get a signal at first ...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Lennyuk:
A lot of the features are working if you restore your settings of CM6.1 via a backup app onto this rom.

Not all of them mind, plus you have no way to customise them on the new rom so your stuck as they were, but nandroid and give it a go and see if enough of these features work for you.

Special characters

Hi,

Could you please implement the special characters for German - like "ö" "ä" for the hardware keyboard?

Thanks in advance,

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] :
I flashed 1.2 just a few minutes ago, so far I'm liking Gingerbread. Everything's a little bit more snappier.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ccb04:
So can I flash this rom with Rom manager version 3.0.0.2? Because when I boot into recovery its ClockWork 2.5.1.3. Do I need to flash the new recovery img? I'm confused by the steps and just want to make sure. Also will I need to flash the recovery.img again to revert back to 2.2? If so i guess i rather wait
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ballashoes:
Stupid question but I'm having problems getting CW3 installed, can you guys help me out? (I dont have adb)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] quierotacobell:
Yeah need to flash the recovery as per OP instructions. Rom manager maybe 3.0.0 but recovery isn't. And yes you'll need to do it again to revert back.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dictionary:
Haha, that one I can't help ya with bro!

You'll need to flash ClockworkMod 3.0.0 in order to use this ROM. If you flashed ClockworkMod 3.0.0, an wanted to go back to any older nandroids, or back to a 2.2 based ROM, you would need to flash ClockworkMod2.5.x.x before doing so. To make a backup of a 2.3 Gingerbread ROM, or install one, you'll need ClockworkMod 3.0.0 (well, you may be able to flash a 2.3 ROM with the CWM 2.5.x.x recovery, but you won't be able to do anything else afterwards for 2.3. You'd have to get CWM 3.0.0)

Install the Android SDK, and get familiar with adb/fastboot. No other way around it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] androidcues:
As long as you have the GB drivers for adb-9 you can easily erase recovery and flash the correct one. Fastboot cant be simpler. When I had to restore from GB to Froyo (my daily driver) my usualSDK couldnt recognize the phone at all so I decided to install a dedicated GB-sdk with the GB drivers which I named gbSDK. It only takes one second to erase (fb erase recovery) and three to flash (fb flash rec rec.img)

I would not bother with flashing recoveries from the apk --- it always been a shot in the dark and if I must flash from the apk I keep reflashing until the time between selecting phone model and "successfully flashed" is a mere few seconds

i would suggest two recovery files in the same SDK (as long as you have both FY and GB drivers) or in dedicated SDK's tools or platform-tools called "gbrecovery" and "fyrecovery" to differentiate between the two. I dont know if its required but I always erase something before I flash - so unless you like incestuous recoveries - erase before you flash a different one.

Gingerbread Clockwork Recovery is ORANGE Froyo Clockwork Recovery is GREEN (unless someone did a dirty trick on the colorblind)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ccb04:
Okay thanks for clearing things up for me. By any chance can someone post the recovery img. for Clockwork 2.5.1.3?? Would make things a lot easier when going back to froyo. And any chance this will be updated to work with CW 2.x Seems like a pain flashing img. back and forth
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Slotrat:
nprussel (and Cyanogen and everyone else involved) GREAT JOB!

Although we Nordic users with Nordic Desire Z's can't use these ROMs. Our keyboard mapping is different and keyboard does not work, and what's worse the Touch-buttons don't work either.

So I beg for a fix for this, can someone please look into this?

This is how it's fixed it on FroYo ROMs:

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ccb04:
I don't even have adb installed but i had some experience flashing img. on my girls dell streak thru fastboot. Thanks for your help it sounds a little bit easier I might give it a try still havent decided. Would be nice if i had the recovery img. for CW 2.x tho :cool::cool:

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] androidcues:
im only posting this not to make your life easier... but to help people who find themselves trapped on a stale gingerbread island with nowhere to go. please dont be dumb about it. dont do it -- master the fastboot first.... otherwise you'll end up miserable.

http://www.koushikdutta.com/2010/02/clockwork-recovery-image.html

click on your phone model and it will download. Rename .img file to something easy (it must be nameoffile.img) put it in your tools or platform-tools folder and erase the gingerbread recovery and then flash this froyo recovery in and then either fastboot your nannie back in or go to the recovery and restore your froyo rom. but i shouldnt have to say this at all -- this is all elementary.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] hk1388:
You don't have to use adb to flash the recovery. You can use the terminal. ultma75 posted the instructions in one of the CM7 RCO threads. Worked like a charm for me, but ymmv.

Rename to recovery.img
Move to sdcard root
Open terminal and enter commands below
$su
#mount -o rw,remount /system
#flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img

#reboot recovery
this will let you see your new recovery

Quick note: You can flash 2.5.x.x recovery via rom manager with recovery 3.0.0.0 installed. I've done it twice with no problem. Have to flash recovery 3.0.0.0 via fastboot every time though.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blast0id:
this needs to be an "option" and not a feature... in the virtuous rom thread, there are a ton of people asking for it to be disabled, I think more people prefer NOT to have this option than people that do prefer to have it. I personally would rather it be the camera button to "wake" device as it's less likely to be "bumped" while in your pocket, and isn't as easily "bumped" as the track pad button... but not sure if this would even be possible, but that would be my choice for an "alternate wake" method...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xomikronx:
never has really been a problem for me. Even if it did bump in your pocket, that has to be a pretty hard and precise bump.....and even if that was the case, the phone goes back to sleep if it isn't unlocked within 5 secs anyways.....
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] fsShariq:
Hey just a quick question: can i flash on top of 1.1 through recovery or do i need to do a wipe and then install 1.2. Sorry im new to the community and did go through recent post but couldnt find an exactly answer. Also, big thanks to the devs and all help is appreciated
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] wileykat:
If it comes back part of CM Settings then we will be able to disable, as in CM6. But if the Team Villain want to put it in themselves there is a possibility we will be lumbered with it. It was said on another ROM that it is their personal preference to have it, and that the ROMs are designed for personal use by them, they are just sharing, which is fair enough enit.

Keep your fingers crossed that CM settings come back soon. Personally I wouldnt want to disable it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] arashi:
They maybe work on all G2 but on my russian DZ they won't. Like cyanogen 6.x roms without patch described in this topic

And this problem still remains untouched like creators of cyanogen cant believe in this or all using G2's :p
