USB Tethering is completley broken. I did a Superwipe+ (So as to rule out any possibility of unwiped partitions causing issues.), wiped Dalvik again, and flashed the nightly 69.

I reboot, let my apps restore from the Market, use Titanium to restore the data for user apps only, and reboot again.

Then, for curiosities sake, I turned on Wifi hotspot. It works fine. Cool.

Then, today (that all took place last night), I plug my phone into my laptop, and go into the settings to toggle USB Tethering. It forces my phone to reboot. This has happened the last few nightlies, so whatever, I'm used to it. Ill just use Wifi hotspot... right? Wrong. I reboot my phone again, and try to toggle Wifi Hotspot. Now it just tells me "Error". Wth? I wipe the cache, Error, wipe Dalvik, Error, Wipe Dalvik AND cache, Error (and it makes the Android Update process FC upon booting). So, I'm going to try 70 tonight, and see how that goes. Hopefully it works.

Has anyone else had any issues with USB Tethering or Wifi Hotspot?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] nyt:
yes, annoying.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] martonikaj:
unless you see something in the changelog indicating that they're put back in, they're going to stay out. Still unsure why but yea.

I'll check after flashing #70.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mrbmg:
All is well here. Seems like the builds keep getting faster and faster. Oc @ 1 ghz, stable using adw.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
So no one has a problem with screen on/off animations?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] C.Flat:
Well, I'm trying to download 70, but it's going reaaaallllly slow right now
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] EdKeys:
If you've changed the animation speed in spare parts, then that will disable screen on/off animations. I am not having a problem and am using pershoots kernel.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] KarlosTheJackal:
Just flashed #70 and all seams ok so far, still no themes though (CM gets rid of them just as I start using them! Haha)

I can confirm for all the people who flash the DesireZ keyboard fix that it still does not work :-( no more pound signs!

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] martonikaj:
WiFi hotspot works just fine in #70, as it has in all other nightlies.

Also in #70, when adjusting volume it now properly shows which volume you're changing rather than just showing a _ in the pop-up.

Screen on/off animations work just fine.

Wallpapers still gone.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] EdKeys:
As a long time user of Launcherpro plus, I've been disappointed lately with the lack of updates. I got tired of the app drawer bug when turning the phone to landscape and seeing that distorted icon. I've switched to Go Launcher Ex and I've got to say it is the smoothest home launcher I've used with CM7. It is packed with some nice features too. If you haven't given it a spin I suggest you take it for a test drive and play with the options. It plays very nice with CM7 and it's free in the market.

Is anyone able too download picture messages? Mine keep failing....have been for a few builds now. :(
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] userfriendlyme:
Are you using a 3rd party message app? I had to uninstall handcent which was preventing me from sending sms messages the regular app has worked fine for me.

Sent from my CM7 powered G2
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] G1ForFun:
Stock messaging app
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] joemm:
Yes, mine is working fine.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] philosophics:
No, I have not been able to receive picture messages for a little while now. With the stock messaging app or handcent.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dhilberg:
Not necessarily. The themes and wallpapers were removed from nightly 51 and added back in with nightly 58. Nothing was mentioned in the changelog about it.

They will probably be added back in eventually.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] NuShrike:
nightly #71

That was fast -- #71 is out with only one change.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tankmorph:
Yeah, I'm sticking with #70 for now. Everything is working perfectly for me!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
Aww dam I knew that but forgot lol. Sorry for the noobness.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
Wonder why there taken out period?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
Anyone?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] J-Hop2o6:
I think its a cell/carrier/Tmo issue with the Google Servers cutting out intermittently from time to time.. When I'm using wifi (Comcast ISP) it never drops service for a few seconds - a couple mintues with the Google servers.. so somebody should check into that.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] martonikaj:
Using WiFi calling by chance?

Whenever I'm on WiFi Calling I can't receive MMS.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] martonikaj:
That's weird I don't remember this happening.

I personally don't have a problem with it. the builds flash faster without the wallpapers, and if you want them you can snag em and just keep them on your SD card.

I'm really not sure. Its perplexing because this never happened in earlier builds. It would only disconnect when you were switching networks or had very poor signal etc. when you would normally expect your phone to lose connection.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] nivlac978:
Same here. Kind of sucks but I only need to use wifi calling in a few places so it's no big deal.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] martonikaj:
Glad I'm not the only one. Yea I rarely need it but quite annoying :P
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] J-Hop2o6:
Other ppl said they flashed back to a stock/shipped rom, and are still having the disconnect issue (Google Talk).. and I still have this issue over cell, even if I have a perfect signal (full bars).. but when I'm over wifi, I'm always connected, unless the signal is very poor.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] geckobear:
I switched to Go SMS and got MMS to work again.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Fallen Spartan:
Haven't had any issues with MMS personally But I've always used ChompSMS
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tvdang7:
using hancent and my mms go through sending and receiving just find over wifi calling.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] G1ForFun:
Never use wifi calling...in fact its frozen with titanium backup right now.

Just curious but why would switching from the stock messaging app to a different one allow me to get picture messages? I really like the stock messaging app because its just simple and fast.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] trsanning:
Go SMS worked for my to but I don't understand why since it is just a front end for the stock messenger app.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] KCRic:
It is but I use it because for some reason the stock MMS always compresses pictures I send to no end. 250KB gets taken down to 1 - 10KB:eek: whereas Handcent doesn't. I can send whatever size I want, 1MB and beyond, with no compression. Had this issue with the Slide I owned too.

Quick question, If I installed a Nightly version to my phone can I just update to a Stable version? Or do I have to reinstall everything?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] EdKeys:
At this point in time, no. The stable release is Cyanogen 7.0.3 Android version 2.3.3 and the Nightlies are Cyanogen 7.1 Android version 2.3.4. Cyanogen tweeted that if you flash the stable on top of a recent nightly you will mess up your phone. To go back, you'll have to wipe.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] WarBird87:
So that being said, i am running nightly #42 right now, if i wanted to flash #70 or whatever is out now, would i be able to with out issue?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] EdKeys:
It should be fine since you are upgrading....."should be" because, as you know, the nightlies are experimental test roms (alpha builds).

Edit to add: check your Android version....I believe b 42 was still version 2.3.3 so you could flash the stable release too if it is.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mrbmg:
Make sure you flash the newest gapps.

Nightly .. Nightly .. Nightly .. Nightly ????? Why so many???

Please forgive my ignorance, but i came from the Vibrant community, which I'm use to receiving updates on existing ROMs. When I install a ROM from a developer, any upgrades, bug fixes, would be given for a download.

I recently upgraded from my 3G Vibrant to a (very sexy i might add) T-Mobile G2. I rooted immediately and the first ROM I installed was CyanogenMod 7, which I fell in LOVE at first touch. I then discovered the Nightlys.

I always considered each Nightly release would be (like the Vibrant community) bud fixes, upgrades/tweaks, but Its hard to find a 'change-log' on what the dev did from each update.

Now, the Nightlys are up to #71. Are the changes so minor that they need to re-release each version as a nightly?

Right now, I'm sporting a ROM from BlackDroid 'UD' nightly #12. This is a really cool ROM from Ultimate Droid, but they don't come out with the Nightlys as much as CyanogenMod Nightlys.

Why so many Nightlys? And can someone post a link to the change-log for these Nightlys?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] crachel:
http://cm-nightlies.appspot.com/?device=vision

only the nightlies between RC (release candidates) and stable are 'bug fix' only. otherwise they are implementing new features and testing
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lawalty:
Thanks for the link.. Now, this makes sense. I can now follow and keep up with the change-log. :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] NuShrike:
Because it's every night, about. If dev releases are too much, go back to the stable releases.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lawalty:
True, but i'll be missing out on all the new 'cutting edge' updates. CyanogenMod are true to their word about releasing nightlies.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] KarlosTheJackal:
I'm having a huge battery drain issue, I know what's causing it but I have no idea how to fix it! This has randomly happened to me for ages but As I had no idea what was the culprit so I never bothered posting.

Basicly my phone starts "Syncing" with the Google servers (Its always my Gmail) & well it never stops, I have the sync icon permanently in the notification bar. My only way to fix this is to preform a reboot of my phone.

Does anyone have any ideas? I'm running Nightly #70 (Though this has happened on over nighty's) I'm wondering if its a problem with CM7 or asop?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] EdKeys:
Is it possible that one of your emails has a very large attachment? If so try deleting it or moving it to another folder with your computer.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Kilroy672:
Its been a while since my last flash. I want to flash the lastest nightly. But I forgot the steps in the right order. I know I have to goto rom manager, the recovery...not sure after that. I know its wipe data/cache or delete..Is there a link on here for the correct order? Still running nightly 36 and want to update to 71. Please help. Also any known issues?

Thnaks.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
Lol definitely not every night. For a minute there we didn't get one for almost a week.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
If you are just updating and not a clean flash...

Go into recovery

Wipe cache

Wipe dalvik

Flash zip

OPTIONAL: flash pershoots or someone elses kernel if your into using a different kernel

Fix permissions

Reboot.

All done!

If going for FRESH install

Go into recovery

EITHER factory data reset, format system, wipe dalvik, wipe battery stats OR (recommended) use super g2 wipe (with or without efs wipe)(recommended to use the one WITH efs wipe)

Flash zip

Flash google apps

OPTIONAL: Flash kernel

Fix permissions

Reboot

LET SIT FOR FIFTEEN MINUTES BEFORE EVEN TOUCHING IT. If you absolutely CANNOT wait, at least do not turn on the wifi for a few minutes. That seems to prevent tons of problems. I know myself, if i go right into the setup, it will freeze or just run like crap. If i turn the wifi on immediately, it's almost guaranteed to soft reboot.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Kilroy672:
Thanks. But I found a post and the directions shortly after I posted this. Everything went smooth. Went to install Titamiuim backup and all my backups backed up without a hitch. :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
Hey not a problem. Maybe it will help someone else.

Gonna ask again, maybe this time someone will answer me. I don't really max out my ram, is there any advantage to checking "purging of assets"?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] G1ForFun:
Keep it checked so that if you ever do, then that option will come into effect. Doesn't hurt to have it checked.

At least that is my thinking behind it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
Ty for acknowledging me. I will do that. I didn't think there would be any side effect but was not sure.

On a side note, 72 is up. Hopefully the dam themes are back! :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mrbmg:
Doesn't look like it. Small file again
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] EdKeys:
If you search for Superuser in the Market it will say free, but then when you click on free it will tell you there is an update available. Just fyi. Running build 72 and everything seems fine so far.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
There is also a new app out called superuser update that is supposed to address that but I haven't messed with it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tankmorph:
Just download and install any theme apk that you want from the market or the android theme section of the forum. There is a sticky with all of CM7 theme chooser themes. No need to flash the themes and wallpapers every time. I hope they never include them again.

Here's the Androidian theme to get you started:

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] EdKeys:
I went ahead and installed the update. Now it shows as installed in the Market which is good, because as tankmorph said about the theme.apk's, it"ll stay updated that way. At least that's what I'm thinking.

Has CM fixed USB Tethering yet? The problem is when u enable it, your phone reboots.. me and my girl are on Nightly # 63/64/65.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] EdKeys:
Do you move apps to your sd card?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dekeijzer:
The idea of nightlys is very, very simple. It is an automated process in which a script builds a new rom every night if there are changes. It is not a person that waits up late at night to build the rom, it is an automated process. If there is a day where no changes are made that apply to our (G2) device, then no new rom is build, simply because it would be exactly the same.

Nightlys are very common in the software world where all developers like to work on the exactly the same latest update. No point in fixing a bug that already is fixed in the latest nightly.

Also, if there is a rom without an automated build process that updates only once a week, it is wrong to call it a nightly.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] J-Hop2o6:
No.. some automatically saves to sd card.. but I mostly move them to phone memory.. why u ask? It always has worked for me until the Nightly #60's.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] EdKeys:
A friend of mine had moved apps to his sd card and that was causing his phone to reboot when he connected his usb. After he moved the apps back to his phone it fixed the issue.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] J-Hop2o6:
Are u using any Nightly 60+? If so, does your usb tethering work fine?

Update: I just went back to 7.0.2, and USB tethering works for me again.. it doesn't restart my phone when I enable it.. I wonder which Nightly broke it.. Anyone else have the usb tethering phone reboot problem in the #60+ nightlies?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] OriginalGabriel:
Sadly, the theme I like/use is only available via CM but, really, that's not the point; if themes are randomly being left out (despite not showing in the commits) what else is left out/added in?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] EdKeys:
I don't use tethering....was just trying to help by passing along some info I'd heard but glad you sorted out the issue.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] EdKeys:
Tankmorph, you should post that in the G2 themes forum and if you're willing to maintain it ask for it to be stickied. Good job finding and consolidating all that!

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] KarlosTheJackal:
I really did speak to soon, its done it again today. I'm going to empty all my inbox (got one e-mail sat in there) & see if it makes a difference.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] merdely:
I'm pretty sure that the theme issue is a "build issue" instead of a "commit issue". There were no commits related to themes the last time themes just disappeared for a few builds. This time (I think after they went missing), there was a commit that allowed for the option of not building them to the build process.

I also have a gTab and its file size has not changed. Neither for passion or several other devices I peeked in on. I think this is a problem specific to the automated vision build.

Not sure of the best way to communicate this as reporting of bugs with nightlies is frowned upon (which doesn't make any sense to me).
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xboarder56:
Is there a problem with kernels on nightly 72 because when I try and chang the kernel wifi doesn't work but it looks like its replacing the module.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
I'm using pershoots, and wifi working great. Even wifi calling (i think).
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] G1ForFun:
Pershoots works. Eugene and blahs do not. On the lastest nightly and the radio in my sig.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
Not to be a pain, but i'll ask and keep asking till someone answers me!

Does anyone else notice that the push notifications for the nightlies SUCK? As in, they never actually notify you? I find myself manually going into rom manager 5 times a day checking for updates because the update system rarely ever tells me when there is an update. And when it does, it's hours and hours after the fact.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] G1ForFun:
Ur not alone...someone brings this up at least once a week.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
Alright so it's just not a very efficient system then :)

Noticing on the latest nightly, my signal bars and 3g/h keep changing from color to white every couple minutes. I guess that means it's losing the connection to google servers/sync? Either way i wiped cache/dalvik, fixed permissions, and did an efs wipe about 5 minutes ago. All seems well so far, hopefully it was just a fluke.

I've been running CM7 nightlies since RC1 and I can't manage wifi to my satisfaction. I would like wifi to turn off shortly after I turn off my screen. I've adjusted the advanced wifi settings in CM and I've tried several power managers (green power, juice defender, and one other) and all can successfully turn off wifi. But, as soon as they turn it off, the device turns the screen back on and, due to screen on, re-enables wifi. I'm posting here as this seems to be a general CM7 issue. Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] spovat:
still on 7.0.2 final and it's been flawless for me..any significant updates in the nightlies to warrant an upgrade? seems unnecessary
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] crachel:
Tasker will do this if you're willing to purchase it

Also, do you have an app that is managing the keyguard/lockscreen? Some devices will wake when the keyguard is enabled

I'm not sure it's a quote on quote issue, i believe it's just that way by design.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
I wouldn't think so, other than being able to say "look at me i'm running cm 7.1 yippee!!!". I enjoy it just cause i feel like i'm using the bleeding edge. But to each his own.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] G1ForFun:
There has been at least 60-70 commits since 7.0.2 was released.

So yes, there is a reason to upgrade.

IMO my phone feels faster now then it did back on 7.0.2

For those who are missing cyanbread, and looked at the post a couple pages back with 132905832 themes, here is a suggestion. I always felt cyanbread was not BLUE enough.

Just to reiterate, I'm not responsible for compiling that giant list of themes. I just cut & paste from the general android theme sticky. I don't want credit for something that's not mine. I'm sure it was a ton of work to gather that info.

I have tasker disabling the lockscreen and keyguard when I'm at home. This could be the issue. Let me try turning that off.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] crachel:
thats true, but the only commits that made it into 7.0.3 was a security patch, so any improved performance you might be seeing would be from dalvik/cache wipes while upgrading
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jonny_ringo_wvu:
That didn't fix the problem. Even when I turn tasker completely off the phone wakes up when green power disables wifi. I guess I'll try setting up tasker to automate turning off wifi, it just doesn't seem like something this simple should require tasker automation.

What am I doing wrong?

Since nightly 50 or so the device drops the connection and I tried different

Radios and wiped a lot but the dropping doesn't go away:(

I'm from Germany and using e+ as a provider.

Now I'm testing Superwipe + Vision_RADIO_12.28h.60.140f_26.06.02.27

but when the device connects to Wifi, the 3G/H and the Phone Status turn grey, after a while they turn green but many nightlies ago this didn't happen :(
