Flashed the 245 nightly on my brother's G2 and his mobile data goes in and out. When it stops working the only thing to fix is reboot. Any ideas?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ultma75:
Have you tried any other radio?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] deliriousDroid:
Any big updates recently?

Nothing since build 145...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cwburns32:
Which radio is best for CM7??
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] steviewevie:
Try some different radios and see what is best for you. That might sound unhelpful, but there are too many factors involved for their to be an overall "best" radio.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] nyt:
N makes almost no difference on these phones. I compiled a new bcm4329.ko module and added the old code to disable 802.11n back in. It works great now, no more disconnects during sleep.

uint32 nmode = 0;
bcm_mkiovar("nmode", (char *)&nmode, 4, iovbuf, sizeof(iovbuf));
dhdcdc_set_ioctl(dhd, 0, WLC_SET_VAR, iovbuf, sizeof(iovbuf));
printk("wifi: Disable 802.11n\n");

I built this module and then hex edited it to match the version magic string of the kernel in nightly 245. Can grab it here if you want: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=MR5VDPZV
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] fermunky:
Everytime I flash a new nightly, the Market seems to lose the data on my existing apps: It will sometimes only show like 4 apps installed, or tell me there is an update for an app that is already on the latest version. The remedy is to go into the main Menu > Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > Market > Clear Data.

Happens after every new nightly is flashed, anyone know why? I generally only wipe the dalvik cache and then flash the rom. I have almost all apps on the SD card, only ones on the internal memory are any social networking apps, and any that need to be in order for their widgets to work.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bled82:
Has anyone had a problem with the notfication drop down power widget sound toggle not working? Mine will toggle sound on but not off or into vibrate mode or any thing other then on , this has been an issue on nightly 245 and 248 for me , please let me know if you have same issue or a resolution for it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Chezbel:
The settings changed recently. Look at the Cyanogen settings, Interface, Notifications Power Widget, Widget Buttons. Scroll to the bottom and choose the sound options

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] G1ForFun:
Hey guys what is the best radio for CM7?

Also guys my notification power widget is bugged! It just force closes when I try to switch my sound or brightness!

I am not sure how to use the search function or Google, so if you could answer my question that has been asked 500 times before....then I would really be set!!!!

:rolleyes::p:rolleyes::p:rolleyes:

For goodness sake mate, can you not search :rolleyes: ;) lol

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lawalty:
Be careful on just flashing radios! You have to 'doubly' make sure the radio is for your phone/carrier. I have a G2 from T-Mobile, and I know there are at least 3 radios (out of 14) that is adaptable for my phone. I never had an issue with my reception, wifi, ANYTHING. I don't mess with anything that has anything to do with RIL matching bla bla bla bla...

If it's not broken, don't try to fix it.

Go HERE for the list of radios.

You can upgrade your radio to a newer version, but MAKE SURE you know what your old radio is, so you can go back to it if you experience problems.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cwburns32:
Which of those 3 are you currently on?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] fermunky:
I guess I was lucky. Last weekend my gps stopped working completely. I went to the radio thread and saw the instructions for wiping efs(?) Data, but just installed the latest version that was listed as tmo's ota version, and worked brilliantly.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lawalty:
Right now i'm on:

Vision_Radio_12.62.60.27_26.13.04.19

but the 3 i was referring to:

Vision_Radio_12.62.60.27_26.13.04.19

Vision_Radio_12.52. 60.25_26.08.04.30

Vision_Radio_12.22.60.09b_26.02.01.15

I don't give into temptation and try to flash anything, because of all the issues folks have regarding radios. So i keep things simple and safe.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] G1ForFun:
OK so I have had force closes for awhile now in Cyanogen Mod Settings / Lock-screen / Widget Options

Can anyone verify if this is rom wide or just me?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Fallen Spartan:
What in particular where you turning on/off as I just played with those settings and got no force closes

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] androidtoy09:
My market app crashes every single time I try to install something from the market. I did clean the data and wipe cache but it still crashes. Any clue, anyone?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] c00ller:
FYI any radio from any carrier's update will work no matter what carrier you have or where you are in the world
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Fallen Spartan:
I'm not sure what everyone is doing with their devices but I'm not getting any force closes or errors with MP or widget settings. I don't think its Nightlies tbh, as with a clean fresh rom I don't get these errors. I suggest those with these errors try a full efs wipe

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lawalty:
I said "phone/carrier", you make sure you have the right radio for your phone, or you'll have problems.

This is speaking from experience.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] c00ller:
Yes, you have to match the radio with the phone. But of those radios, you need not match the carrier who provided said radios. This has been discussed over and over in the radios thread that you linked to

Anyway, to answer cwburns32's original question, ROM and radio are completely independent. If you find a good radio, keep using it for any other ROM you want.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sino8r:
Wouldn't the lack of N make the range shorter or is that just on the router end? I've never really thought about it that way on the receiving end.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] djfoo000:
Speaking of widget options, it seems calender events will not be displayed if an alarm is set. Meaning if I have an event at 9am, but I set a recurring alarm at 8am, the 9am event won't appear, until the 8am recurring alarm was disabled completely.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] petard:
Do you have more than 1 google account signed in? Check to see which one the market is using. It sometimes switches to my second one which doesn't have any apps on it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ptesmoke:
N in theory has less range, if you are running on 5ghz (which our phones and most year old devices don't support) and yes it would be dependant on the router and the power in which it transmits, the receiving end is mostly dependant on the size and quality of the antenna, take for instance a large gaming laptop, it will pick up 90% signal strength at the same distance your phone would receive per say 75%, but again it depends on the transmit power as well.

That being said most new routers (I recommend linksys myself) are capable of transmitting 802.11G as well as N, @ 2.4ghz, N giving you higher bitrates but still being congested in the 2.4ghz range that everyone and their dog is using.

Ideally you would want N only @ 5ghz, but chances are all your devices won't support 5Ghz. Once the 5Ghz spectrum is the norm, it will most likely become just as congested as 2.4Ghz is now.

With all of that said, the best practice one can do now is use your router,or an app, that shows which channels nearby signals are using, giving you the knowledge of which channel will suit your need (least congested).

Hope that clears things up! Also most wifi related issues are caused by congestion and interference, turn on encryption and it gets even worse. This is why I reccomend locking your router password securely, not broadcasting your ssid, and using mac address filtering to only allow connections to your specified address you define. No encryption, less packet loss, invisible to your neighbours, and of course run a firewall on the router and your computers "just in case".

Everyones different but this is how I run my home network :)

On a linksys E2000 with DD-WRT.

250 is out!

I see that this commit: http://review.cyanogenmod.com/9757 is for Nexus S, but will it have any effect on our device?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lawalty:
I would also like to know this myself. Why would they show commit changes for other devices on our 'Vision' commit list?

http://cm-nightlies.appspot.com/?device=vision

I had a similar question many nightlies ago, and some knucklehead said "its nothing to do with our device." .. well, why list it then?

Im glad they added the double tap feature! I quickly put mine to open/close the app drawer. You can find the settings at: settings/ADWLauncher/General Behavior

Cool huh? I assume all of you using different launchers are SOL.

LOL. :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sino8r:
Muhuhuhahahhahaha! Hey! That was me! Lol! How did you know I was a knucklehead? :D That's what my dad called me when I was a kid ;) I'm being serious, sadly... it was in a joking way though. But yeah, they don't need to list commits that don't affect Vision. Its rather stupid... that was too funny! I just spit out some of my drink! Lol!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Fallen Spartan:
Alright knucklehead, thanks for clearing that up. For a min I thought it might've been me, then I realised I wasn't a knucklehead....phew :rolleyes:

Hrmm... ADW's double tap opens the notifications for me, but doesn't close it when I double tap again.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] J-Hop2o6:
I'm guessing they'll just show whats updated in the WHOLE CM project.. but the ones specifically for the Vision will be highlighted.. Remember, if its not device specific it'll be apart of our phone (like the camera tweaks, CM settings, etc.).
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cwburns32:
Flashed this and a custom rom for my brother the other day. Everything seems to be working great except everytimebhe tries to use the hard keyboard the phone freezes up until you slide it shut. Could this be the custom kernel issue or a known issue w this rom?? Trying to figure out what could be. Already fixed permissions and cleared keyboard to no avail. Any thoughts??

Sent from my CM7'd Atrix from another planet..
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sino8r:
Yikes! That's never a good sign... have you tried wedging a small piece of paper between the phone and the battery? That might be a loose connection and the closing of the keyboard could make it lose contact. Otherwise, it could be a short in the ribbon wire between the board and the screen. It could be a bad flash too... try reflashing it and/or wiping with superwipe2.zip in recovery. Make sure you use tsubus's version so you keep your EXT4 partitions intact. Good luck!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kcchen:
Unlikely that @5ghz (close to 150 channels) will be as congested as 2.4ghz (11 channels, only 3 of which are non-overlapping). Each AP only utilizes 1 channel from each spectrum, unless your using 40mhz. If your devices support 5ghz, turn it on. Probably better signal, less interference, less congested same throughput. But less range also, but should be enough coverage for most situations. Our phones don't support 5ghz, but most fullsize laptops do.

To the OP, range depends on both router and the end device transmisson levels. If your router is blasting a signal, it doesn't do a device which has a low transmission level (i.e. our phones) much good because the signal from the device may not reach the router. Typically devices will negotiate a lower throughput as the signal degrades... Things like metal cabinets / laundry machines or microwaves cause a lot of interference so try to keep them away from the router / access point.

N has features to enhance throughput like channel bonding which can improve throughput. A lot of devices don't support those features and only operate at 20mhz... Good for wireless bridges... And very dependent on spectrum congestion... Again use 5ghz if you can.

A few if you were reporting that on wifi, the connection to Google's servers would be dropped after a certain period of time (presumably because of wifi disconnection).

Well, I just flashed Tiamat's kernel last night and I can't say that I've noticed this again. Can someone please confirm?

I am running #236 and I just realized flash videos play sound but show nothing but black... I uninstalled adobe flash then reinstalled and still doing the same thing. Any help?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ptesmoke:
Exactly what I was saying, not a lot of "handheld" devices sport the 5ghz support. Newer laptops do yes, but again most routers if set to 5ghz will only do 5ghz and not 2.4 as well, thus causing all your semi older non 5ghz devices to not have wifi support.

I understand the 5ghz spectrum has more channels, which should lead to way less congestion, but I see it eventually ending up almost as congested as we have now.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] WarBird87:
Never mind I got it to work lol had to install a previous version of adobe

KNOCK KNOCK! Hello, who is it?

My name is detective Nollingsburge, and I'm following up on the disappearances of the HTC Vision commits. Just have a few questions.

Yes sir detective. I've been enjoying the nightly flashins for some time now, except recently. It seems (breaks out in sobbings) the latest nightlies are missing commits!

Sir, I understand. That's why I'm investigating the matter. We have been noticing redundancies of the same nightlies with no changes.. it seems the commits have either left town or (suspicion music playing) something might have happened to them.

Well, detective. I hope you find them!

Son, would you know anyone that may have had a beef with the commits?

No sir detective. I and many others at the XDA look forward to the commits everyday. I don't know anyone who might want to hurt the commits.

Sell sir. I have to go now. . Here's my card. If anything comes up, please call us.

Yes, sir detective! I'll call.

I got my SMS LED notification working again (nightly #251), yay !

I found that just as in 7.1.0 stable it still didn't work with this nightly (using Handcent). What I did was install Light Flow, turned off "direct mode" in Light Flow, and also turned off LED notification in Handcent. Now it works just as it always used to :D

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cwburns32:
It was neither a loose connection or a short in the ribbon wire.

I did reflash and that did the trick but when I flashed, ICS framework/white rings zips and a few morphs the problem repeated. I wiped cache and dalvik, reflashed ROM and problem was fixed again. Narrowed the issue down to the ICS framework, rings and morphs that was causing the problem, don't how this could be but that was it.

Hope this helps someone who may be experiencing similar issues.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sino8r:
Oh.. That makes sense now. The problem with that is that all framework-res.apk vary from device to device even nightlies slightly. I use the same mod but actually just use the morph version. Go with that... Its problem-free! Always, use morphs instead of flashing a modded framework.apk. Much more reliable. Just to start fresh, you can push you latest rom framework-res.apk to clear up anything and then apply the morph. You should be pretty safe that way. Oh and dont forget to change permissions. Good luck!

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Vandam500:
People have to understand that Nightlys are not for everybody. There are bugs and things that are not going to work properly simply because it is a Nightly as in its not done yet. This is why they don't have a bug tracker because they probably already know most of the bugs and are working on them. If you are new to the ROM/Recovery flashing scene and anything like it just stick to the stable ROMs that are working without problems (CM6.1.1, Enomther v2.14.2, Virtuous 0.9, etc).

Half of this thread is filled with questions of people asking how to flash CWM 3.X, Gapps, etc and it really is basically cluttering up the thread for the rest of us that know what we are doing.
