Nope just the default kernel for now....I am compiling a new "Nightly" with the latest commits as we speak.....I am very excited...many new awesome commits and hopefully the kernel tweak will get rid of this drain some of us are having.

Yeah that is my usual procedure as well. Was just curious if maybe you had done a full wipe.

I do this to minus the battery stats and lately I have been flashing gaaps after the nightly just to ensure I don't have to set up my account again and resync.

I usually keep my battery stats as I like to have good battery life...if I wiped them every nightly I'd never have decent battery life as the phone would always be in that "learning" phase of calibrating the software battery readout to the actual battery capacity.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Fallen Spartan:
Yeah, looking forward to that myself....... ...as always ;)

For the person asking about the stock launcher:

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dhilberg:
FYI, I get a black screen in the camera app where the image should be using 78 and Pershoot's kernel. After about 10 seconds in the camera app switching between the camera and camcorder (both have black screen) the phone hard reboots.

Reflashed 78 to get the stock kernel and all is good. So if you want to use your camera/camcorder, don't use Pershoot's for now. I didn't have any problems with Pershoot's and 78 otherwise.

EDIT: I've noticed that there's a delay between tapping the app drawer icon with Launcher Pro and when it actually opens. Part of the opening animation doesn't show as well, and it seems overly fast. I'm going to restore to 77.

When do you guys estimate 79 will be out?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] heybobitsme:
Tonight. Somewhere around 9 or 10 P.M. PDT usually. If you look at the times on the teamdouche mirror it's based on GMT, I believe.

Was it already answered about the QuickOffice or does no one know they can't reply?

I rely heavily on excel spreadsheets & docs through microsoft office and Quickoffice is pretty much disabled/can't instill from titanium backup. Anyone else have a way around this with the new nightlys?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] gravis86:
:rolleyes: Duh.

Someone mentioned earlier not to use any 3rd party kernels yet, and that's for good reason. CM is now running on a .35 kernel. Pershoot's is a .32, as is everyone else's. What made you think they would be compatible? It'll take a bit for the other 3rd parties to update their kernels to the .35.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
Can u upload it for us who do not know how to compile it ourselves? Even a pm with a link would be great. I keep asking for a tutorial on how to do it for people who know NOTHING about linux but all tutorials assume you know the basics, and I don't. :(
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
By the way no heat issues, and no battery drain like 77 which was absolutely insane.

Check my Sig. There ya go. This one not only installs Stock, but also uninstalls ADW so the stock launcher is your only choice and the only one running.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dhilberg:
I flashed earlier this morning before there was a lot of posts on it. Plus, I don't have time to read through a bunch of documentation each morning before flashing. Changelog just said kernel update, not which version.

Not that I have to defend myself anyway, or that it really even matters. A simple nandroid restore took care of the problem.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] spovat:
I know a lot of you are recommending to do a full wipe before upgrading from 7.0.2 to the most recent nightlies but I just want to know if any of you have successfully upgraded without the full wipe. I'd like to avoid it if I can. thanks
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Fallen Spartan:
IIRC the issue is that both are based on different versions on android. The nightlies on the latest 2.3.4 and stables on 2.3. So swapping between them like you would do with Nightlies without a full wipe can cause instabilities or issues, hence why its best to do a full wipe

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] martonikaj:
You're best off just doing a full wipe to alleviate potential headaches in the future.

Just back up all of your apps with titanium, and screenshot your homescreens (or save the homescreen placement if you're using ADW or LP, etc.). This will make it easy to get your phone set back up after you bump up to the latest nightly.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lawalty:
I know, i know, so please don't flame. I may be angering the XDA forum gods by bringing up this DEAD horse, but please to my benefit, I did search this forum from cover to cover (thank god for the 'Search this forum' button) and the last inquiry before the quote above stated that Netflix was working, now it seems to be broken..

Before anyone (usually non-Netflix subscribers) crucifies me for bringing this up. It really means a great deal to me and my family that this STUPID Netflix app works. I was running CM7 as my daily driver for some time, until I discovered UD. My wife stayed with CM7 (stable release). Both of us went back to stock G2 rom just to run Netflix.

It seems the devs here at Cyanogen is taking steps on getting Netflix to work, something with a tweet on Twitter that the op knows about the issue.

Anyway guys.. no harm.. If I get flamed, I wont respond (effort to keep this forum clean). If I anger anyone for bringing this DEAD horse up AGAIN, please please, I apologizes.

I wanna know if anyone out there sporting the latest Nightly, and is a Netflix subscriber, does it work?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sino8r:
The latest works. you might wanna reinstall Netflix after flashing...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] philosophics:
I am a Netflix subscriber and it does work with latest CM7 nightlies (as of Sat 14th). No worries, it works. No need to uninstall/reinstall either. Dead horse now buried...

My camera works fine with the pershoot kernel. But I imagine something doesn't work within my 200+ apps right now..

IN OTHER NEWS - Did you see all the CM7.1 commits? Lots of language updates though. But there will be a nice surprise with changing the In-Call style.

Maybe I'm the only who had a phone turn into a toaster...

Is it cool to flame you that you took the time to post this, but your answer was only (lol) about 5-10 pages back in this thread? You can even block the search by date.

Maybe this thread is just too long and answers are just getting buried unless one reads everyday. But then again, searching Twitter can also give you an answer.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
Well figuring the topic is over 700 pages i would say that is the case. And though i do agree on people searching, the xda search is not as great as people act like it is. Many times i have not gotten anything close to what i'm looking for. I think people need to just remember that before they flip out on people before asking questions. Also these big ass topics need to have the OP update the original post with commonly asked questions and answers. I know the cyanogen team is busy but if they dont have time they should pass it off to someone else who should. Its kinda ridiculous to expect someone to read 700 pages for an answer...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mejorguille:
I haven't wiped since the crackflasher builds from 5-6 months ago and update my nightly every 2-3 nights. Never had any problems that a simple fix_permissions didn't fix. So you really don't have to wipe unless you REALLY want to. Paranoid people smh.

Lmao I use just google my question and type xda g2 after it works a lot nicer than xda search. Oh, and teamdouche did NOT create this topic. There's a reason that stable releases have a separate topic.

Both @cmsrc and the CM gerrit specified about the 2.6.35 kernel update. Pershoot is usually quick about updating his kernel so if you really want to use his either stay on older nightlies or wait a little for him to update.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
Wow thats a pretty long time lol!!!;)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mejorguille:
Lol I know
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] smartin4166:
I was the one who posted that quote about netflix app not working again and I was able to fix the app by uninstalling netflix app then reinstalling the #77 build a second time. Then I reinstalled netflix and it started working again. I noticed later that Netflix posted an update and when that installed I think it somehow reversed whatever made it work to begin with. If this helps anyone else then I'm glad.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
Is there anything stopping us from starting a new topic with someone who is willing to update the first post at least every other day if not daily? I know there is many willing to do it myself included. The OP is so old it still links to an ancient (at this point) CWM.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sino8r:
You could ask Mikey if he might start a new one and delete this but I doubt it since its still CM7 nightly. I guess we'll have to wait on cm8 for a new one lol:) Xda search does suck... might as well use google with the proper text. You might find the answer in a different forum as well.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] quierotacobell:
Anyone have wifi signal issues? I'm talking the bars always fluctuating from 2-3 bars, whereas if I was on the leaked tmo rom or the virtous g-lite, I would have full(4) bars in the same spot I was sitting in. But on this it would never go past 3 bars, just curious if anyone else noticed this. I've noticed this on the stable and nightlies also, messed with different kernels, same result; I've also wiped and superwiped on a fresh install, still same thing.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mejorguille:
Are your speeds any different? Because it might be that the same signal strenght might be interpreted different in different roms.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lainvalenajr:
Also getting that. I get 2-3 bars. If I switch to sense, MIUI, or stock G2 gingerbread I get almost always 3-5 bars at the most
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] G1ForFun:
So I compiled a build with the latest commits (except for the backup.sh one) and it runs amazing so far. Very nice to have AM/PM back in the status bar as well.

Battery is back to normal...this kernel is blazing at 800mhz....I don't even think I am going to overclock anymore.;)

Anyone know if throwing up a dropbox link is a bad idea? As in... how fast it will get shut off once people start downloading it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] yogi2010:
also finding a weaker wifi connection in my usual spots in the house, on build 78... perhaps a bit weaker than the 7.0.3 stable build. I haven't really tried many other G2 ROMs besides stock, so I can't really compare that way, but with my Samsung Sidekick 4g, my wifi connection is a lot stronger.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] PJcastaldo:
Less bars doesn't really mean a weaker signal. I would recommend doing a speed test on both setups to really see the diff.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lainvalenajr:
Hmm will test.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
Last night i know people were watching the build process and could see it as it was coming to ours. Any word how close we are to 79?

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] .A.J.:
79 is available now.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
I see cool :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Powers88:
So I read earlier that we werent using custom kernels, is that plan still in effect?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] .A.J.:
Until they are updated to the one this ROM is using, I would say yes-that plan is still in effect. Though, someone with more knowledge would know better.

As for 79: all is well, so far, for me. My first download was a bad one but another DL and all seems fine. I guess I'll see how it really performs tomorrow.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] martonikaj:
My understanding is that the last 2 nightlies have a new kernel base, .35, and other custom kernels are still on .32 and would therefore be incompatible until updated to the same version as the current CM kernel.

Correct me if I'm wrong.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] yogi2010:
I believe that is correct. some have reported that the older.32 kernels still kind of work, but perhaps with a couple bugs. I'm sure Pershoots and the others will come out with kernels based on the .35 version soon enough :)

Alarm Clock

Any body else having trouble setting the alarm time?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] martonikaj:
Hmm my previously set alarms are fine but creating a new one i get a deskclock force close. I've fixed permissions and rebooted too...

also, my call pickup lockscreen was set to rotary, when before I had both lockscreens set to sliding tab.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] .A.J.:
First problem I've noticed: when using the dialer with the keyboard open the numbers are wrong. if you press 1234567890 you get 7937898467. If you press the alt button before each number, as in ALT 1, ALT 2, ALT 3, ... then you will get 1234567890. Double pressing the ALT button, as you normally would to lock the keyboard to the ALT options for each keypress does not work and gives you 1937898467.

Yes, same problem for me. I also get the "App Clock has stopped unexpectedly" while trying to edit the times of my previously set alarms.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sino8r:
Eeeek! You gave me a headache with that one... numbers make me angry:) weird bug though..

About the alarm clock, maybe it has to do with am/pm being added on? Has anyone tried pushing back the clock.apk from last nights build or trying a 3rd party alarm like klaxxon to see if it works? Its late but those are my guesses right now...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] OriginalGabriel:
I can confirm the alarm issue and dialer issue with the keyboard open.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] yogi2010:
strange, I do not have the am/pm back in my status bar.... I guess that has to do with using the darkginger theme(I didn't wipe when flashing build 79)? and curiously, I am not having the alarm clock bug, mine is working fine.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] philosophics:
Can't confirm dialer issue but can confirm that the clock force closes everytime I try to turn on, edit or add an alarm. Something that is very important for the morning. I have to open my shop tomorrow.

Pretty sure I'm going back 78 until 80 is released...

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] martonikaj:
I never use the dialer with the keypad open so I don't care too much for that.

the alarm clock however is a deal breaker. We'll see. All these major changes in 1 nightly was bound to break some stuff.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] philosophics:
I'm stickin with 79 and here's why,

I solved the issue by installin alarm clock plus and actually, I feel better with this alarm clock cause I sometimes hit the dismiss button instead of snooze.

With alarm clock plus, it makes me do a math problem to dismiss and as anyone knows, doing math when waking up is pretty much impossible...

I'm pretty sure that's not an issue but a feature. The numbers correspond to the letters on a regular touch tone phone. 1-800-Cyanogen = 1-800-292-66436 (I know there's an extra digit, its for demonstration purposes only)

Its also pressent in #78 and I bet its always been like that.

thanks anyway guys
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] heybobitsme:
My general rule is wiping is the last resort, or if I'm changing ROM's. The only times I've done a full wipe is going from the crackflashers alphas of CM7 to the nightlies. I wiped on the first stable, and any other time I've flashed another ROM like MIUI. In which case I flashed my backup to go back to CM7. I always flash Gapps on nightlies, because of the problem you just described. I only wipe cache and dalvik and fix permissions on boot, and I don't have any problems other than anything relating to something that has been changed in the nightly that isn't working right, such as the alarm force close in #79.

Edit: Actually, if you made a backup, you could restore it and flash Gapps. Although you'll probably have to sign back in to your Gmail.

tbh honest mate I haven't noticed this and I use DHD myself. Haven't had any issues using data whilst surfing (except if I lose connection in poor reception areas)

You said you did the usual wipes. I'm guessing cache and dalvik.....correct? Also, do you fix permissions?

If you continue to have these issues maybe its worth while doing a nand backup or titanium etc and then trying a superwipe. This for me in the past has got rid of little annoyances which can't be explained by other users
