The only time I have ever had force close problems flashing ANY CM nightly is when I had themed Launcher Pro widgets and Gmail. Once I returned them to as they are normally I can flash nightly's only having to clear dalvik and that's it...no issues...no problems. This is using the supplied kernal (with no issues on battery life) 2.15.00.11.19 radio, 3.0.0.8 clockwork mod. All flashes (that could be done) were done through Rom Manager.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] kioshi:
First major issue...for me in build #11.

My usb mounts the phone storage but not the sd card storage. After 30 secs to 1 min, my phone goes to cyanogen mod loading screen and boots. The phone comes to main screen then boots back to cyanogen mod screen....then once it returns to home screen, i am to see my sd card storage mounted.

From that point, i can toggle usb mount on and off (seeings the android go from green to orange/red).

This is weird, has not happened to me since my first rom flashed (build #21, #33, #3, #8)

Any recommendations?

Current setup:

- Build #11

- Honeycomb theme version 4

- stock kernal

- have not updated to new clockworks...still using the 2.5 something something version...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] gonzlobo:
Me too. I have no issues.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SynisterWolf:
i fixed my duplicate song problem.... turns out if there are any !#$!$%#$%$ in the ID3 tags it will error out on android. Put all my music on my pc and ran and tag editor and its all good to go.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] gonzlobo:
Wow, the language! ;-)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bill102938:
I had the same issue; though I've had this issue since going to CM7.

I will say that two days ago I flashed incredikernal 2272011 and set min freq to 128, using the default smartass governor and my battery life is much improved.

Just my $.02 :cool:
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cuzzinz:
Anyone that is using the custom auto brightness notice that sometimes when you turn the phone on even in a dark room it goes to maximum brightness? kinda annoying.

Anyone know how to alleviate this?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cannonballgsu:
Is there somewhere I can read on the flashing/changing of kernals? I've searched around, but apparently the terms I'm using are too vague.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] cannonballgsu:
Thanks - good read. So can you just flash kernals over other kernals? Just download the zip and install in recovery? I've read that if you have flashed certain kernals, you have to do an advanced nand restore. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Sorry if these are stupid questions.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:
i haven't but, there are so many variables and settings it would take a few paragraphs to tell you how mine is set up. even then, i'm not so sure they are the best settings

i have a feeling it has something to do with the light sensor reset threshold. try disabling that and see. someday this issue will get straightened out. :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:
i think your referring to the old restore to stock(RUU) before you change kernels or baseband's. cant remember what changed that(was it going to s-off or CWM changes?). either way, just flash over like you would a nightly
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SynisterWolf:
Good thing to do is to wipe dalvik before kernel flash.(but most of the new kernel zips's have the wipe script in it already.) just to play it safe.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:
i use 128-384 for screen off for extra oomph turning the screen back on. also, the beauty of overclock with setcpu is that you can always slide the clock speed down anytime you want. i use tiamat.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wwjdd44:
it is starting because you are using google os and google wants to know where you are........:p
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mobilehavoc:
Weird issue. I'm running 11 with Chad's latest kernel and its been awesome. The battery life on standby is unbelievable.

I took two pics with the camera and I look down at the phone and it's done a reboot to the Cyanogenmod startup animation. It comes back fine but now the two pics I took don't show up in the gallery app although I see them in astro. I took more pics and no reboot and they show up in gallery. Not sure what's going on but I hope it was some random event.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] davwman:
do I need to flash the new radio to use cm7?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] drPheta:
Any 2.15 radio will work
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wwjdd44:
check the start of the OP for required hboot and radio.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] davwman:
Alright, I misinterpreted the part about the radio. Hboot I understood fine. Thanks for the quick help

You were having the problem where many hours of idle completely kills your battery? I'll give it another try. I switched to tiamat earlier but it still has the issue with turning on the screen.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] inline6power:
are you guys using the hotspot featrue of the rom for tether or are you guys downloading the tether app from the market to use? thanks. #12 stock kernel.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Cwoomer:
Im using accuweather through Beautiful Widgets on my home screen. Does that use maps to find your geo location? I guess I was under the assumption that it would only use the GPS to find me. Didn't think that it relied on another application
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Cwoomer:
Thats what Im afraid of :p. No it just seems to be using some resources and I rarely use maps by itself. Granted I take advantage of some navigation once and a while but just don't see why any application using GPS would need to use another application (maps) to find me.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Cwoomer:
The OP has recommendations for Hboot and Radio. These are not requirements. only recommendations. My local CM7 dealer that got me hooked on this rom is still running the old Hboot and pre-2.15 radio. refuses to wipe anything unless something breaks and has been flashing nightlies since they came back from Gridlock without any issues at all. To each is own. I just think they would rather you take the suggestions and use them to rule out any issues before complaining I mean (reporting) issues.

#12 = worst battery life ever.

i pulled my phone off the charger this morning at 8:10am and i'm sitting at 56% right now. only sent a couple of text messages and received two phone calls. looks like my display is what's eating at the battery life. any ideas?

i'm running SetCPU with SCREEN OFF profile.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MMBosstones86:
I've used both and they both work quite well. I like wireless tether for more control for wireless. Tethering with the built in one works great

[Droid Incredible Android Development] StyrofoamTumor:
No need for Set CPU with CM7, really. I find the CM7 settings to work wonderfully. What kernel are you using?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MedleHed:
Looks like your screen is too bright maybe. How do you control screen brightness?

There are plenty of posts in this thread related to screen brightness.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Cwoomer:
http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=531677&d=1299089400

Try the seetings for your screen in this link. or (I'll use a dirty word here) "search" this thread for "screen settings" or "screen brightness settings"

Hope this helps. I have my own custom screen settings with only four settings. simple and works ok for me. Ill post in a minute.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dspcap:
I am still having problems occasionally getting my phone to wake up with CM7. I switched to another rom and the problem goes away.... Using the stock kernel, flash nightlies with recovery.. Any thoughts?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] inline6power:
only time i had this problem was using chads kernel. went back to slayers and it solved the problem for me.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dspcap:
I am using stock kernel... wonder if it could be related to a performance change I made while using Chads kernel?

my current is CPU settings are: Min CPU is 245, Max is 998 and governor is "ondemand"....

I would be cool within the Cyanogenmod settings if there was a "set back to default" button...

Whoa, thanks so much for the help.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] trombone dixie:
In CM7 settings under light levels do i want to leave Screen dim level at 20 (default)?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wildland:
I think those are the default settings.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:
there's always setcpu
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Cwoomer:
I didn't change that setting. I played with it before but didn't really change much for me better or worse.

Dinc cm7 nightly

CMR 3.0.0.8

7.28 radio

Rover theme

Stock kernel

RM 3.0.1.0 premium
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cmo220:
About the google maps...it will always run and restart itself, even with most apps that control the startup. You can stop it with autostarts. Autostarts cost .99 I think but I love it. To use autostarts you have to be using the default system theme with theme chooser. After you adjust your settings you can switch to whatever theme you want but it won't let you adjust most of the settings unless you are on the stock theme.

And about the screen waking up issue...I've had the problem with tiamat and lately the stock kernel. Haven't had it once yet with incredikernel 2272011 but I've only been using it about 3 hours. But it definitely seems to not have that issue.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] past_pluto:
Something is forever keeping my phone awake. Today it was huffpo app. Most of the times it's email or dialer. Normally one force stop (***** slap) is enough to keep it from happening again.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] meazz1:
How did you get the screen to show 50? I tried your setting but my screen is "disabled".
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Cwoomer:
Under settings- display-brightness you have to enable auto brightness before you change values in cm settings-display-automatic backlight-check "use custom" -edit other levels-press the value you want to change-enter value between 0 and 255-save settings. You can play with them and watch the values as you take your phone through different ambient light situations to find the right one for you. You can always load default settings and save them to get back where you started.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MedleHed:
That is the minimum brightness and its pretty low. If you want to be able to set it lower then change it. I have my minimum set at 30.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] meazz1:
Thanks.

I was not checking the auto brightness.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Cwoomer:
He is talking about screen dim level not brightness. Dim level highest is 26 default is 20
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MedleHed:
As I was told and what I have seen in my own testing the screen dim level is the lowest brightness your screen will go to whether you use auto brightness or not.

And I have my minimum set to 30 in the edit other levels settings.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] SynisterWolf:

Screen dim level only lets you set a level from 1 to 26. I'm interested in how you set it to 30

You are talking about the screen brightness level in edit other levels. This is not the same as screen dim level. However for the screen brightness level what you said is true. I just didn't want to mix him up with the terminology. He was asking about the screen dim level and changing it from the (default) 20 setting.

Launcher Pro FCs on boot but works very well afterwards.

Any idea?

Uninstall and reinstall usually works. Sometimes you have to let the phone stabilize. Some people lock it in memory. When I used it, an uninstall and reinstall worked
[Droid Incredible Android Development] slayher:
Try disabling scrolling cache, or something like that. I dont use LP but I think there is a caching option that might cause issues.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:
have you tried going into the settings of these apps and found a "keep awake" checkbox?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] wwjdd44:
with a little research.......the consensus is you need to be patient....there seems to be a number of programs all trying to load at once upon boot. I use LP, but never have an issue. When I flash a new nightly, I flash a new kernel at the same time (either chad or tiamat) and do not have the issue. I used to flash a new nightly, boot up, then flash a new kernel and I would see the problem then.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MedleHed:
I didn't set my screen dim level to 30. Never said I did. I have it at 20, but in "Edit Other Levels" I have the screen minimum set to 30. If you try to set your screen brightness lower than the screen dim level it will not let you. So the screen dim level to me is the lowest you can possibly set it and in my opinion its not relevant if you have your screen minimum higher than 26.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] domesdkg:
I had issues with LPP crashing when I installed the ROM through rom manager. After clicking force close, it would just keep crashing, and reboot didn't fix either. I returned to a previous nandroid, and then tried again checking the wipe data and cache, but it didn't fix the problem. I have the most recent ROM manager and Recovery.

However, I went back to my Nandroid backup, and tried installing through recovery instead, and had no problems, even without wiping cache and data.

He asked if he should leave his screen dim level set to (default) 20.

Lol wow and I thought my 20 variables that I came up with were excessive. I don't have time to do it tonight but I'm going to try to write up my auto brightness settings.

2. If you move those apps to the phone, are you able to mount USB Storage?

Guys I know I posted a day or two back but I gotta ask again has any one had issues with the battery heating up? I haven't seen any posts but I just thought I would check in. Just trying to catch up on the thread. I just reverted to rc1 to check it out. Basically if I'm on the web(on #11) for more than about 5 minutes or Try to stream video it starts to heat up and eat up battery... FAST! But running Pandora this morning for my staff at work for almost 2 hours and the battery only dropped about 4%(ON # 11) with no heat. Any thoughts. I even switched back to miui to test with the same results(battery heating immediately) Maybe the battery I assume. Just looking for some opinions. Also can't find my 2nd battery to compare... sorry

Was editing the layout and the battery temp was up but since I stopped and was only reading the thread the battery temp is dropping. 99.8 now. It got as high as 112 f earlier This morning. No multitasking .... one thing at a time for all instances.

The apps can specify to install onto the SD card. Nothing to do with CM
[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:
nice. BS. i can move them back but it should ask. when slayer asked i had to check. is that why most of my angry birds accomplishments(if you will) don't seem to get saved?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] converge12:
why wouldn't you want a behemoth of an app such as Angry Birds on your sd card?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:
well. it's not saving my status. been wondering why. it always reverts to long ago. probably before it started moving itself to the card. when did that start happening? last i knew you had to move it yourself

could never find a setting to save angry birds data to the sd card
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jesssiii:
For me, 2 reasons. They play better on internal & there's tons of space not being used (internally) for anything.

I use Titanium to move apps to internal storage (there are a couple that don't move for whatever reason).
[Droid Incredible Android Development] v941726:
thats the other thing. 8gb sits there for nothing if we didn't have the tools and root to use it. still dont know why htc put it there to "officially" not have access to it
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jesssiii:
I did several months back. It got so hot i could feel it without any monitoring app- getting one just proved it was overheating. Not positive what caused it though. At first I suspected SBC battery mod, but it persisted a short while after I stopped using SBC. Especially when I was using the phone at bright display while charging and reading/surfing for hours. Hasn't happened since, even though I still use phone while charging. I am more mindful and tend to keep my screen dimmer now.

Sorry, not much help I guess.

angry birds saved stats for me fine.. so that is weird.

What else can it be?

What browser are you using? I do notice that if I use Dolphin HD in desktop mode my battery heats up and drains quickly. Especially when watching flash videos. Also, I experienced overheating while using miui. Maybe you can try a more "stock" rom such as Virtuous just to verify. Hope this helps.

Make sure you overwrite your angry birds backup in titanium right before you wipe your phone. I think it's called forced redo your backup or something similar. It sounds like you keep restoring the same old backup.
