Anyone have wifi working on this build? http://garden.zenthought.org/update-cm-7-20110114014057-PREVIEW-glacier-signed.zip

Wifi won't start

logcat shows: E/WifiHW ( 1503): Unable to open connection to supplicant on "eth0": No such file or directory
[myTouch 4G Android Development] AbbaSou:
You reboot after flashing and initial boot? sometimes another reboot is required.

Edit: Yes, wifi is working fine on the 2.4ghz band. It's the 5ghz band we're having issues with.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] krohnjw:
Reflashed (and rebooted) and it's up and running. Odd as I've never had that happen with other versions of CM (6 on my N1 or mt4g or 7 on my nexus s).
[myTouch 4G Android Development] deskhack:
Immediate improvement here - right after installing calls no longer stutter with screen off. tried a reboot and another call, also no stutter.

I poked around the apk, i see notes for high performance mode for wifi; is this an OS change or something specific to the wifi calling app?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] AbbaSou:
Yeah that issue has been present in these cm7 builds for glacier for a little bit now (since the beginning?). I guess that's why they're preview builds still. ;-)
[myTouch 4G Android Development] krohnjw:
On a few test calls I had quite a bit of stutter. Installed GanOptimizer.apk - made 3 test calls with 0 stuttering.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Zinx Verituse:
2011-01-15 23:08 -0600

Really fixed 5GHz support, fixed wifi stuttering, ^3 removed, various other CM7 changes that were merged.

Oh yeah, huge thanks to AbbaSou for being patient and helping test the 5GHz stuff :)
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Zinx Verituse:
HTC's framework had stuff in it to set high performance mode while wifi calling was active, but we don't have source to that.

Gingerbread added a new internal API (for SIP calling, which SIP calling already uses) to force high performance mode via a wake lock.

GanOptimizer detects when you're on a wifi call, and sets wifi to high performance mode using the new internal API while you are; it doesn't touch the framework itself.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] tharptx:
I can confirm my 5GHz signal showed up immediately with the 0115 version. I'll report back about my strange wifi scan issues once I can test them again at work monday.

You rock Zinx!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Foo_Blyat:
Is the microbes live wallpaper still in the new builds?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] emailtvo:
Is the gan optimizer integrated into the 1/15 build then (referring to "fixed wifi stuttering")?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] AbbaSou:
Yeah GanOptimizer is now built in, so that should be fixed. Haven't tested personally, but might try testing tomorrow.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Mr Bill Florida:
Thanks bro, working like a champ.

Fixed wifi ARP replies in low power mode (screen off)
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Legaleye3000:
Just wondering what is not working in the current build...? Thanks.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Phateless:
Thanks Zinx! :)
[myTouch 4G Android Development] djeddieone:
Everything working fine for me thanks for the updates
[myTouch 4G Android Development] btbuck1:
only things i really notice was,

*the over all speed of the rom is lacking vs. cm6

for instance swiping between home screens is choppy in comparison.

*Some settings don't stick upon reboots for instance, auto brightness...when you reboot it doesn't work until you lock and unlock the screen once. (minor i know...but it should work right) and the power widgest in the task bar...I usually elminate this, but yet it comes back (ocassionally)

aside from this, and some CM UI settings and themes not present, it's pretty much a go...

I went back to 6.1.2 rc2 just because I prefer the speed of the rom vs. cm7 (at this point)

Also, don't understand the choice in removing the stock music apk in favor of "music3" the stock music app is better and works with the clock screen. By removing it, it breaks the music button in the clock. If you want us to try out music 3 cool....put it in there, but I don't see the point of removing the original one. Most of us flash these types of roms because it's the vanilla android experience "optimized". Taking out the regular android apps i'm sure is not a popular choice, especially when it breaks something else.

I really appreciate your hard work zinx....so please take it as constructive criticism.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] gaww:
FYI - I see my 5.8 also. Nice work.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Jeffmeister:
Weird I saw that CM7 ran just as smooth or maybe even smoother than cm6... also Music 3 is the new music app for CM7... it will replace the music app in cm6 and they are not finished with it yet.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] mulletcutter:
i running the 20110109 version, do i need to do a complete wipe or can this just be flashed w/ no wipe?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] phaino00:
Most wipe cache and dalvik cache. Some also do full wipe. It is personal preference. Never hurts.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] mulletcutter:
I have alot of titanium to restore...

etched with my mT4g
[myTouch 4G Android Development] phaino00:
Wiping cache and dalvik cache will not require restore from titanium. Full wipe will require restore. Hope that helps.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Phateless:
Flashed over earlier build and only wiped cache and dalvik. No issues.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] osugsxr:
Swype apk from nexus s rom for mytouch 4g? How can I install the swype keyboard from the nexus s mytouch 4g rom? I tried extracting it and placing it into the system/app on this rom and install but I just get force close when I try to use it. Seems as if these roms are pretty much identical, may make switch over to that one for the swype keyboard. I do have swype currently installed from the beta, but I like the other keyboard layout from the nexus s swype.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Phateless:
Did you check permissions before rebooting? Try fix permissions and see what happens.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] mulletcutter:
Goto swype.com and sign up. That works for me.

I know if i wipe the caches i wont lose ne thing. But i have really no problems with the build...i might wait till rc1

etched with my mT4g
[myTouch 4G Android Development] borodin1:
MusicMod in CM6 is not stock Android app, based on stock but not stock. If you want it back - download it from the market, it works just like it should. Feel free to rm Cubed from the system (or pm disable if you think you may need it again). I myself don't like Cubed so I installed PowerAmp trial but, most likely will revert to MusicMod.

In the other news, looks like half of CM team (kmobs, charansigh dudesandroid and zinx) have MT4g's now along with some great devs (shafty23, evil d, gorilla, option94, teamsilence, gridlock, grankin and others I forgot) so we're in for a good ride.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] emailtvo:
The 3 music app is no longer included in the ROM as of maybe 2 builds ago. As far as scrolling speed, I changed to adw ex and also set the scroll cache to low in the ADW settings. You may want to try this out as it improved my scrolling.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jjjackson56:
Make sure you also move the swype lib file to your lib folder our it won't work
[myTouch 4G Android Development] osugsxr:
That was the fix I was looking for, thanks. Just needed the lib file as well. Now I have the white swype keyboard
[myTouch 4G Android Development] defjef123:
Is this for mytouch only?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] mulletcutter:
Mytouch4g

etched with my mT4g
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jjjackson56:
Anytime I think that's the best looking keyboard. I personally hate the dark keys. Keep in mind since this is a lib file you will have to put that back in the folder each time you update because the update removes it.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Zinx Verituse:
May be due to a different ADW Launcher version, dunno.

Try enabling the option in CM Settings that allows the screen to decrease brightness.

We're going to add T-Mobile's excellent open sourced theme engine soon :)

We're not really aware of any speed issues - I actually fixed a bug that's been in AOSP since at least cupcake, so configuration changes can happen faster now.

Music^3 was removed two of my builds ago

I do, and I appreciate it, it's always good to have more input from people!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] AbbaSou:
Regarding lag on the homescreens: It does appear that ADW (including EX) has some issues with the current Gingerbread builds, especially if you use lots of widgets (like me). If you don't use scrollable widgets, or the LauncherPro Plus widgets suit your needs, I've noticed that LPP does not experience the lag that ADW does. However, it would appear that LPP does not play well with 3rd party scrollable widgets such as Plume's widgets, the Pure widgets (calendar/messenger), and others. Not sure what the deal is there but apparently LPP needs to be updated. That being said, LPP is very smooth and lag-free on these builds.

If you prefer to use ADW, I've found that the lag can be minimized by turning Scrolling Cache to Low and disabling Wallpaper Hack. There is a little bit of choppiness, but it's greatly reduced. Leaving Scrolling Cache at Auto, however, renders it completely unusable.

I hope this helps any of you having issues with ADW.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] KenpoAP:
Hear something about nightlies! What about it? Sounds good!

From my don't talk about changelog CM7 Glacier
[myTouch 4G Android Development] mulletcutter:
Read that tweet too...here we go

etched with my mT4g
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Zinx Verituse:
They're coming :)

The buildbot is currently building them.

It's hasn't gotten to glacier yet, but for when it does, here's the site for nightlies:

http://mirror.teamdouche.net/?type=nightly
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Jacezo:
My main gripe with this Tom is that my phone won't vibrate for notifications. Is anyone else experiencing this?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] mulletcutter:
My vibrator works well..u have it to vib?

etched with my mT4g
[myTouch 4G Android Development] boek:
I have no problem with vibration on Google Voice or Lotus Notes Traveler using CM7. I don't use vibration on any other app including the native messaging.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Jacezo:
Yea its weird because when I set the ringer to vibrate the phone vibrayes but when I receive texts or calls it does not vibrate. Haptic feedback works (even though I don't use it).
[myTouch 4G Android Development] foxdl99:
mehehehe...muhahaha...hahahahaha!

Anywho, I also have no issue with vibration, they should probably check vib settings. Also, I haven't noticed any choppiness in swiping from screen to screen, but it does seem less than fluid on the menu screen on adw ex.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Phateless:
Very cool, thanks for all your hard work on this Zinx!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] tharptx:
Forgive me if this is a noob question, but can someone please explain what the difference is between nightlies and the previews Zinx has been posting? Is it just that they're posted on the teamdouche site on a more frequent basis? Or are the nightlies somehow more in sync with the main CM7 development, while what Zinx was providing was essentially preparing for this phase?

Thanks...
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Zinx Verituse:
The nightlies are built automatically every night, instead of by me when I feel like it.

That's pretty much it.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] m3ng:
Automatically? But we would have to keep flashing stilm right?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] AbbaSou:
Yes, they're built and posted automatically each night, but you still have to download and flash them manually.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] gaww:
Since they have not gotten to glacier yet, will you be doing any more previews (although I see the thread on CyanogenMod is closed) , or is it going to be only nightlies until a Beta or release candidate comes out?

Update - nightly for Glacier is up.

In any case - nice work on these previews - just about everything is working good enought so that this is currently my day-to-day ROM.

I am kind of glad some flaky posts came out - it prompted you to release these - lol. What is your next project - ASOP?

PS - to those who struggled like me to get adfree working (This did not involve many others - do the rest of you not mind the Google banner adds cluttering your screen?) - they have an update on the market that totally fixed it (now I can clean them out of my system/bin folder).
[myTouch 4G Android Development] tharptx:
Zinx - not sure if this belongs in the nightly thread or here. Referring to my previous Wifi scan issues, my device immediately detects the wifi at work (not 5GHz) now too. So whatever you did to fix the 5GHz also fixed my other problems.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] gaww:
This sounds interesting. Some questions which I did not see already answered:

Coming from CM7alpha - do you need to do a full wipe, or only cache and dalvek?

If full wipe, only factory/data reset or format root, system, etc?

Also, will the other CM7 Google app packages work OK?

Sorry for all the questions.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] clamder:
i used the camcorder in the stock and the iced glacier, and the fps is higher in those.

and also, tango worked properly in the earlier builds that gridlock compiled prior to any of the ffc orientation fixes. just providing my input :D i'd love for tango to work since it seems to work well on the nexus s.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] brian6685:
I didn't wipe anything and its running great.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Zinx Verituse:
Coming from a different CM7 alpha, you should not need to wipe at all.

The existing Gingerbread Google apps packages will work as well as they do with other CM7 alphas.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] mulletcutter:
thanks to ur help, cm7 is installed and is great. very fast...installing all data through titanium takes forever
[myTouch 4G Android Development] gaww:
Right on - 4000+ post was exhausting.

Opps - doing one myself - last one I promise.

Downloading as I write this - will try to make only relative comments and not bug reports...
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Zinx Verituse:
It looks like Tango has some special code for HTC Glacier. Try changing ro.product.model to something other than HTC Glacier and see what happens.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] gaww:
Tango was working on my CM7 through build 32 for me. Just flashed, so have not gotten a good look at the preview yet.

One more question. i have been using recovery 3.0.0.2 because it had been the only one to hands backups/restore (but not root, system, etc. formats). Is the linked 3.0.0.5 any different in that respect?

Update - did dalvek and cache wipe for the h... of it (habit I guess). I have fully loaded CM7 with the google apps a a good number of market apps. Restored desktop from backup of it. Everything is working so far, plus WiFi, Bluetooth, and Hotspot came up fast (spent half a day trying to get Bluetooth working again before I ran into this). And, as stated, WiFi Calling clearly works. Did not try tango yet - almost midnight here and nobody to call and try right now.

Still have the CM7 boot animation screen, but that will be easy to change.

Great work.

I could live with this until an official one comes out, but this went up so seamlessly - will be looking for follow-ups.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Zinx Verituse:
I don't think anything major has changed from 3.0.0.2.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] mulletcutter:
why does quadrant not work?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] bobsbbq:
The app has not been updated to work with GB yet
[myTouch 4G Android Development] cyanogen:
Because they haven't bothered to update it for Gingerbread. It uses a native library to do GL stuff, which has changed quite a bit. Basically, if you see any app that says DOES NOT WORK ON NEXUS S (like the Market description for Quadrant does), they probably mean Gingerbread in general.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] gaww:
It has not worked on CM7 right either. They need to update their program to work on gingerbread.

Opps - it was answered as i wrote this...could this post be deleted to remove clutter?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] gaww:
What had changed was that 3.0.0.5 would not do backups/restores - only 0.2 did - I have used it a few times. None of them would format boot, system, etc.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Zinx Verituse:
Ah. Oh well, CWM 3 is still in development - there are some changes planned to make the transition to/from Gingerbread a bit more painless, and I'm sure making backups work is on the list :P
[myTouch 4G Android Development] mulletcutter:
thanks for all 3 of you. so, thats basically the reason for tango unside down ffc?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] garynsa:
Thankyou so much for the builds and all the hard work

A quick question to see if there is a way to get FM Radio working on this?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Zinx Verituse:
Not yet, there are still some problems with it.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] mustang00066:
Nope, never mind. I just put back on the stock rom and the images taken from the FFC are NOT mirrored.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] emailtvo:
Yeah I don't have any screen off profiles. I think I read somewhere that it was the wifi policy but not sure if that is a kernel or rom issue. For people that it is working for without choppiness, what kernel are you running and any other wifi settings?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jjjackson56:
So I take it that this rom doesn't back up any gapps I didn't wipe coming from another gb rom and I had to go back and reflash the gapps again
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Zinx Verituse:
It backs them up, but only if the modversion was CyanogenMod. Some other CM-based roms are claiming they aren't CyanogenMod, and changing the modversion too. CyanogenMod does this because the stock apps do not work properly (they are odexed, require native libs that aren't properly backed up, and are often named differently). Leaving them could be disastrous.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] G1-evolve:
Amazing! ;D
[myTouch 4G Android Development] xdviper:
Whoa, wifi turns on but doesn't scan for any networks and then turns off by itself? Is this a issue from before? I've been reading that the wifi works.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] epsix:
Uh... maybe a simple reboot would help after flashing.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jmwils3:
fix: rom manager->fix permissions->reboot.

this fixed my wi-fi.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] epsix:
Go in settings /call setting /additional setting
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jjjackson56:
Hum I wonder what gapps I'm using. I downloaded the ones from the gb thread that was closed

Also do we have a working swype
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Zinx Verituse:
Tested Tango with kmobs some, changing ro.product.manufacturer to Samsung makes it work perfectly as a temporary workaround until Tango fixes the app.

I will not be making this change in my builds, though (hopefully for obvious reasons).
[myTouch 4G Android Development] carlos2384:
ho muh god even mobile hotspot works!! that is whats up! i just wish it had stock GB launcher instead of ADW but still super awesome so far!! very nice Zinx u are the truth
[myTouch 4G Android Development] bobsbbq:
Zinx is using this supposed to fix the upside down video on the other users end? I just tried with my Wife and I'm upside down on her end. I changed the setting you noted above.

EDIT: Never mind I forgot to reboot. Working now.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] mustang00066:
How do you get mobile hot spot? I tried pushing the apk over from the stock rom but no luck. Am I missing a lib file or something I need to push into place first?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] cdw9800:
how do you change it?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] splat matt:
Does this have the cool tube TV turning off graphic?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] borodin1:
Hot spot is built-in under Settings->Wireless and Networks->Tethering and portable hot spot. No need to push anything in or download any other apps.

Option to turn it on/off can also be added to power widget and to the notification bar buttons.

Good luck.

[myTouch 4G Android Development] daryllh:
i went to the search in this forum and typed in gapps for CM7. I chose to show threads.

I found the zip in the 2nd thread the search brought up. You can go to the first post of the CM7 thread (the 'not official' thread...the one with 4000 posts).
[myTouch 4G Android Development] gaww:
Thanks.

If I had looked closer - I would have remembered - have been in there before.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] gaww:
Or (if this is not the one you were referring to there), you can go to the link at the very beginning of the thread

http://phones.crackflashers.com/glacier

, which has the gapps I am using (they were carried over after just flashing over a build from there).

Also, they have several recoveries (3.0.0.2 through 3.0.05.xxx). I would recommend 3.0.0.2 IF you want to do a nandriod of this ROM (I will be doing one soon). as it is the only one that handles backup/restores of CM7 ROM's so far.

[myTouch 4G Android Development] Jaskwith:
Thats a known issue(video messaging applications in general), and there was never a claim that it had been fixed. People need to understand that a lot of applications haven't been updated to run on gingerbread code, so until they update it on application developer's end, we prolly wont see a functional product on our end. Unless Zinx, comes into "potentially a lot of free time" because apparently editing the API's or whatever could be a time consuming process.
