Works except for Wi-Fi calling

No issues so far except Wi-Fi calling stutters like CM6 RC0 and RC2.

Tried wiping and starting with a clean rom (no apps besides rom default/stock, no setcpu, etc) but the stutter persists while in a call when the screen turns via proximity sensor.

I flashed cw 3.x via terminal emulator without a problem. Also flashed CM7 without an issue, only I had to grab gapps from the other cm7 thread so I could get the market to work... weird.

*edit*

I am actually getting more consistent data connections with this build and I tried wifi calling and am getting no issues as well.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] EmceeGeek:
I'm not seeing any issues. I was having a problem with Wi-Fi at first but I just rebooted my phone a few times. Be aware that when you're charging your phone the LED turns green when you're battery gets to 90%, its not fully charged so you have to check the percentage. I just learned that today. lol

Flashing CWM3 was easier than I thought, happy I found a video on how-to's. Command Prompt was not the way to go.

My market is force closing no matter what I do. It worked once, now not at all.... ? I even tried rebooting, re flashing and a fix permission. Market still FC's

now the market is just working all of the sudden. Very odd, no other issues as of yet...

SMS backup from the market. BEFORE you exit cm6, use that app to backup all your messages and then you can use it again in cm7 to restore them.

[myTouch 4G Android Development] mun-key:
lol - yup. I just made the backup, updated recovery to v3, flashed cm7, and titanium backup says that it restored my messaging data, but nothing comes up.

Ohh well I guess. It was only 3-4 weeks of messaging anyway. Hopefully there was nothing important in there :/

Now if there were an easy way to rip my text messages from an iphone4 backup and put them into this device, I'd be a happy(er) camper.

I had adfree working again for a while with an older version, but nothing works anymore (came down after updating this ROM little while ago - do not know if that has anything to do with it.

Is there a way to not have to delete any apps if I just want to update my rom to the newer preview? I have the one that came out on 1/10 already and it's great. But I don't want to have to restore all my contacts and homescreen and all that. If I don't wipe and just install the newer rom in recovery will it reset anything?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] btbuck1:
i accidently flashed cm7 (the 1-10 preview) over 6.1.2 rc2 without wiping and all my texts, apps n everything were there. and it was running fine. just had to do a bunch of updates on the apps.

you normally don't have to wipe when just updating a rom. especially if it's the same rom.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] mountainboy:
I was having the same problem with choppy audio with the display off- I have setcpu at 245/768 screen off. Somewhere along the line of adding in my phone number (under calls-->additional settings) and running a fix permissions through rom manager (2 or 3 times- I was just tinkering) the choppy wifi calling has been resolved. @Gaww this also seemed to get adfree working for me again- even in dolphin browser mini- which I didn't expect. I'm not really sure if I can duplicate this though- hope it works for you, if you haven't already tried it!

heavy packet loss on SIP would produce the same effect, or inadequate cpu to process the stream, you end up with garbled or randomly silent audio

Because u don't flash them. U gotta push them to system / apps. There not just for froyo, I use the smoked ones all the time

Adfree broken - not ROM problem

I looks like this is broken in all CM7 if you have let the market update it in the last few days. The developer of adfree is in Brisbane, Australia nad is not able to deal with right now for obvious reasons.

There was a fix posted on Modaco but i have not been able to successfully implement it:

QUOTE(Paul @ Jan 12 2011, 05:34) *

There is an issue with AdFree in this (and other GB) ROMs it seems.

To fix...

* Uninstall your current installed version of AdFree

* Download this APK file

http://loadbalancing.modaco.com/download.php?url=paul/crespo/AdFree.MCR.apk

* Push / copy the file to /system/app/ (you may need to 'adb remount', it will NOT install in the usual way due to a broken signature - which is deliberately left as such to allow future market upgrades)

This is an interim fix that is working for me, I am trying to liaise with the developer and diagnose further. Note that if in the future you apply updates from the Market, they may 'undo' the fix if the issue isn't resolved.

P

PS This should also work on CM7 which has the same problem!

I am posting this so hopefully someone (don't want to bother Zinx) with more experience with ADB will try it and possible expand on the instructions above.

Update - apparently no interest here, but if anyone needs to do it - see some follow-up on CM7 Alpha thread (p 531)
[myTouch 4G Android Development] shatterpoints:
Is anyone having able to take a nandroid of CM7 ? I tried to do so today and it fails at the recovery img backup.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Phateless:
You have to use 3.0.0.2. We're not sure why yet, but that's the only one that works properly in all regards at the moment.

You'll have to rename this file to recovery.img instead of recovery.img.zip. I only added the zip file so XDA would let me upload it here.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] mountainboy:
I was noticing that wifi seemed slow too. I just moved some new ring tones to my phone, set my wifi calling to 'wifi preferred' ran fix permissions in rom manager, then I rebooted into clockwork, ran fix permissions through that-now after reboot wifi and wifi calling work flawless. I even set my wifi calling back to 'cellular preffered' without problems. (after reboot I did have to re enter my phone number-which was expected)

I just installed 20110112 last night over the stock. I'm having problems with wifi scanning. Last night it saw my 2.4GHz at home sometimes (when I would get any scan results), but not the 5.0GHz signal. At work today I've turned wifi on/off probably 20 times and it's only detected the signal (in terms of just seeing the broadcast SSID - not actually trying to connect) once.

When the scans return nothing, Wifi Analyzer also shows no nearby Wifi signals. (At work there should be at least 3 routers within range so I know something's there.)

Anyone else having similar issues?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Zinx Verituse:
If you guys can get the info (some routers are not going to display it), can you get the value of the "DTIM Interval" or "DTIM Period" and the "Beacon Interval" or "Beacon Period" from your wireless router?

Also, if you can get the model of the router, that would help.

I think these issues could be caused by low power mode with a high DTIM interval or low beacon interval, and if so the proper solution may be to figure out how to force the phone out of low power mode while on a wifi call.

I would like to note that this does not occur with everyone (and, in fact, none of the CM devs with capable phones have the problem), which is the reason it hasn't been looked in to closer yet.

Also, if you're using SetCPU, please do not. Reducing the clock rate while the screen is off does NOT help your battery life, and it can cause this issue.

Basically, leaving the CPU at the minimum and letting it go to the real maximum (no need to OC, though) is the best way to get the most out of your battery life. It takes more power to run the phone twice as long than it does to run it twice as fast, and even more to run it 5 times as long vs 5 times as fast.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Zinx Verituse:
Can't be sure without having any logs of it whatsoever, but it could have been an ARM9 crash.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Zinx Verituse:
Some routers can either go very slow, or there may be a problem with the 802.11n speed on the phone. I'm getting speeds of at least 12Mbit/s on my phone, which is the speed of my internet connection, but I'm connected to 802.11g, and do not currently have a 802.11n router. If the stock firmware gets faster speeds in the same spot (do multiple tests for both stock/CM7 though, because wifi can be finicky), please let me know.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] tharptx:
Thanks Zinx,

I'll post my home router settings this evening. For the record, I don't have SetCPU (although I've been meaning to get it). Also, just to be clear, my wifi behavior with CM7 is much different than the last few weeks with the stock ROM. By different I'm only referring to the scan behavior and its ability to detect nearby signals. Haven't really assessed the speed yet.

Everything else seems to be great. So happy to have CM back (coming from MT3G CM6)!

I think it may be a network issue, how t-mobile handles phones it doesn't recognize or something. hopefully it irons itself out :(

My phone (v. 20110112) can see the 2.4GHz signal fine now, but does not see the 5.0GHz band. Stock ROM used to connect to 5.0GHz band consistently, and since this is the first CM ROM I've put on this phone I don't know about previous versions.

BTW, my issues with detecting Wifi signals seem to have subsided. Pretty much once I let the phone settle down (kept Wifi enabled for a while after successfully detecting Wifi at work), it no longer seemed to have issues with detecting signals when toggling Wifi.

Thanks again for your work Zinx!
