I normally don't like to comment on battery life as these are nightlies, but with #80 it's horrible. I've gone from 100% to about 50% in about 3 and a half hours. I can't seen to find anything out of the ordinary that's running to cause this. However I hadn't changed the cpu speed which was set at 1024MHz by default. I'll flash #83 when I get a chance.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Chezbel:
Probably the builds in between failed. Anyway what's wrong with getting a "nightly" whenever the people that aren't getting paid to do this decide to give you one for free?

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] gravis86:
I'm at 9 hours with 77% left on #80... which is why everyone flames people who complain about battery life. I honestly don't think ANY of the builds have actually had bad battery life. Just people have random bad luck.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
Theres nothing "Wrong" with it, just very unusual and there is usually a reason when they pop out in the middle of the day i thought.

I can vouch for the person above, the battery life has gotten outrageously bad the past 3 nightlies or so! Guess this is the price we pay for the new kernel!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] aegentirony:
Umm 85 is out...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] 0.0:
thats the second one in one day. dang. well hope this fixes the camera/camcorder issues
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
Holy hell another one!!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] trsanning:
My batter is around 70% when I get off work with new .35 and was usuallly at 40-45%. I'm loveing the new versions.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] heybobitsme:
Ya I guess I've just been one of the lucky ones to hasn't had bad battery life until now. Normally it's been averaging at about 30-40% after 12 hours give or take depending on usage. Today has been fairly light because of class. The only thing I can think of is I flashed #80 right after it came out and charged it before I flashed, then used the phone for a bit and put it back on the charger overnight.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] NuShrike:
Probably because there is no 1024MHz in the new kernel so you get bumped to 1.1GHz.

That and #[78,80) (going by some higher temperature reports and my lower Quadrant scores) probably means the G2 is working harder and draining battery for it. I've had higher battery drain while "awake", but almost normal drain behavior with screen-off.

Tried switching to 800MHz to balance the speed/battery hole, but UI then gets slighly-laggy and fairly noticeable in Browser ...

After 4 hours and 22m, I'm at 84%. WIth #77, I'm usually northward of 95%.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] popokrew:
Thanks! Can confirm this fixed for me as well.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] EdKeys:
85 shut down my lights.

Edit: I'm back on 83 and still no keyboard or hard key lights....not sure if this is my rig or the rom as I didn't notice this earlier when I was at home.

Edit 2: OK....went into display settings and enabled auto brightness and they came on then disabled auto brightness and they stayed on. Maybe I should have done that on 85.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lokto7:
I got my DZ today and flashed 85 right away. haven't tried too many things but found that YouTube don't show video but the sounds are there. CM7 on DZ is such an excellent work!

ooops, i believe it's pershoot kernel problem. reflashed 83 is ok now.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Flyin18T:
Ditto. I also noticed that Netflix runs like arse with 77, 80 83 and 85. Picture is so jumpy.

Restored back to stable 7.03
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
Superwiping and reinstalling 85 stopped my little system freezes I have gotten for the last few nightlies. I can also vouch that my netflix plays like ass. Keyboard and camera all working fine here.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mrbmg:
85 did screw with the backlights as someone said before, I did go back to automatic brightness and that fixed it, so thanks.

Still feels real stable and fast ~ 800mhz ondemand
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jayb222:
Enough about the wifi calling using minutes. There is fine print with that. You have to be on certain plans for it to be free, like "even more" plan. If you aren't on those weird pay as you go plans then it still uses minutes.

Now to test this nightly!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] zaelia:
86 is out 80 through 85 all had the same # of dl and same comments in rom manager so 86 is the nightly wouldn't even mess with the others

Edit 86 broke the backlight on captive touch buttons
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dragvandil:
It's working fine for me
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] G1ForFun:
83 messed with the backlight stuff....not 86. According to the change log...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] autom8r:
So far 86 feels very nice in terms of responsiveness, no force close issues yet. Did a full wipe before installing as I was having freezing issues on 80-85, so far so good will keep you posted!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] zaelia:
I flashed it a couple times and ran fix permission with no luck
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] EdKeys:
Read back a little....just go to settings/display and enable auto brightness.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] zaelia:
Thank u

If you mean the wifi calling app that's force closing, its your lcd density setting. At any setting other than stock 240 it will force close wifi calling.

. Very odd bug
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] got2best:
Eversince the number # 83 I am currently on nightly 87 the keyboard light does not come on unless I turn the phone on by opening the keyboard. Otherwise no lights even if I am sitting in the dark. I have checked to make sure the light sensor is on and it is. Pls help.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] M_T_M:
Same here :(

Please report this if is happening to more people :cool:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
THis is so wierd you guys are having this keyboard problem. Thats why i dont think it's a rom issue. I do not have this problem whatsoever. Will keep checking it out.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] G1ForFun:
Calm down everyone ;)

Fix on the way for those with backlight issues.

Change If9f006ea: Fix vision buttons backlight brightness (replay I3b0edb96)

And FINALLY!!!!!!!

Change Ied21acb8: Reduce Call Answer Delay
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
That reduce call answer delay fix is AWESOME! Long awaited!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] autom8r:
86 feels free from the problems that crippled 80-85, I've used 86 for a day now and had no issues, I've been trying to utilize all features of the phone as I use it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] heybobitsme:
I flashed #86 this morning and my battery problems from #80 are gone. After just 2 hours my battery is still at 100%, where I would have been at about 60% yesterday. I think something may have gone weird with the flash yesterday. All is well!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jannaa:
Well... just didn't find time to upgrade before.. :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
I personally would never use nightlies or recommemd them to someone unless they could keep up on them.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Simer03:
Flashed 86 today and instantly noticed the on-screen keyboard pops up so much more fluidly.....is it just me???
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tbalden:
A long dream came true with the kernel upgrade to 2.6.35

It has cifs compiled in! :D I don't need to flash pershoot to mount windows and samba shares. Just noticed, maybe someone else is interested too...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] autom8r:
On 86, damn car home is randomly popping up, this is after full wipe install. Happened on 80 too, kernel issue?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] EdKeys:
Is this happening when you plug in your car charger?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] autom8r:
No, it is occuring with the phone unplugged, no connection to any cables, battery at 89 percent it started, now, one hour later with minimal usage I'm at 71 percent. Car home is "paused", can't get rid of it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] EdKeys:
I was having a problem with it popping up when I connected my car charger and found out the charger went bad. I bought a new one and no more unexpected appearances of car home.

Have you tried going into the application setting for car home and clear data? I would try that if you haven't and then reboot into recovery and clear the dalvik cache. Also, check to see if something didn't get accidentally lodged in the usb port.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] thugjedi:
87 is out downloading now =]
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] PatrickHuey:
When do you guys think the next stable is going to be out?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] martonikaj:
Not sure. Can't even really speculate. If I had to guess I'd say after they fix all the kernel stuff that they just added to make sure its ready to go and release a new stable based on 2.3.4.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] jannaa:
Well i had a "stable" nightly an no problems or time. So i think my crime was only affecting me and probably wouldn't start a world war...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sino8r:
I'd imagine soon. I read that Cyanogen meantioning about a couple of tweaks and a performance fix for Netflix. Also said its coming soon... so yeah. The latest nightly has no issues except flash only works on version 10.2 and Netflix is a bit slow FPS. Other than that, perfect!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] NuShrike:
Where is he saying this? Thought I had signed up to most places ...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] martonikaj:
just flashed #87. all is well but the changelog is showing lots of changes already for the next one!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sino8r:
Twitter from 2 days ago...

Also, latest build is stuck on auto rotate... it's driving me nuts lol!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] martonikaj:
Did u check both normal settings and CMsettings to turn it off?

I'll check if this is true on mine.

Edit: Nope. Auto-rotation works fine.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sino8r:
You're right, it works... I missed something, I guess. It's late;)

Anyone having problems with Swype not working with #87? It worked fine on 86 but not so much on 87. I wiped davlik cache and fixed permissions.

Appreciate any assistance.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] G1ForFun:
I had a problem with swype and used titanium backup to remove swype but left the swype installer. Then I redownloaded swype...re signed in ect...and now swype works great.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] crawfordmd:
Thanks for the advice! It worked good and Swype is working perfect now.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] HLeenders:
#88 is up!

Flashing now. Works without issues. Bonus for me (and my daughter); Dutch language partially implemented.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] autom8r:
Upgraded to 88 from a fully wiped fresh install of 86, wiped dalvik cache for 88 install. Still having problems with car mode popping up relentlessly. I absolutely hate this car mode stuff, it is useless and ruining my experience on the phone as it is popping up non-stop. I just pulled it from system/app, however, in previous builds pulling the package didn't even stop car mode. So far, pulling the package in 88 seems to work, fingers crossed.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] autom8r:
Spoke too soon, car mode enabling and disabling upon opening new apps, the car mode UI is gone, but the icon keeps coming back and it screws with what youre doing at the moment. All w/o cable attached.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] G1ForFun:
went from 87 to 88, everything is working so far....back lights, camera, wifi, ect

In my opinion the UI seems a tad smoother overall....could be placebo :p
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
Auto that really sux! No problems of that sort over here...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ultma75:
88 is smoother for me as well
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Flyin18T:

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] G1ForFun:
Still has low fps...cyanogen said a fix should be coming soon.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
What is this new "manage permissions" in the cyanogenmod settings all about? Sounds good like it stops us from having to fix permissions on our own.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sino8r:
Anyone's wifi flipping out on 88? I reset my router just in case and wiped everything on G2... I'm perplexed really... wifi works and then loses connection. I checked wifi through laptop and its fine. This is weird...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] martonikaj:
WiFi works fine here.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
So basically its not something we should be using unless we have reason to?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] popokrew:
The finally fixed the one pixel line on the drop down status bar when using lower lcd density.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] SomEngangVar:
If it is what I think it is it let's you revoke individual permissions for apps. Like if there was an app you downloaded that wanted to look at your contacts and you didn't want it to you could keep it from doing so.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sino8r:
Thanks! I'll try a fresh download or something lol! I've been down all the usual roads already....
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
Oh ok. I think your right. Ty for the info.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] martonikaj:
Yep. Should say that I've never had any serious issues especially with WiFi. I did a flash and install then fix permissions reboot and it worked fine.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Nitemare3219:
Can someone give me their build.prop file? I'm fairly sure mine got messed up from another ROM and now WiFi calling isn't working.

So I just installed #88 and I am having terribly low quadrant and linpack scores. accidentally wiped my sd card while partitioning it for a swap so nothing really extra running. Getting 1500 - 1900 on Quadrant and like 30-40 mflops on linpack? Any one else seeing this?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] nakeman:
just try #88, and the camcorder problem still there :(..
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] chuchu174:
Backlights are malfunctioning on 88 for me too.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
This is so crazy anymore all these problems everyone has. And whats crazier is EVERYONE does not have them. My camcorder works, my backlights work, etc. Why does all this crazy **** only happen to some people?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] G1ForFun:
Backlight sometimes stops working for me but a simple checking and unchecking of the auto brightness and they work again.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rraxda:
Sorry, accidental double post I guess.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rraxda:
Same here. I can get them back for a second by cycling through the brightness settings but as soon as I open and shut the keyboard they are gone. Same with the capacitive key lights.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] SomEngangVar:
Ditto here. They only stop working after a reboot though.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lokto7:
what quadrant score should I expect with 1024MHz setting? I'm getting 15xx score with that CPU speed.

Yes, higher scores = more bragging rights. I came from LG P990 CM7 nightly and found that Vision CM7 is much more smoother and more mature. Too bad I came here too late. :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sino8r:
Yeah, I haven't either except when messing with .ko files but that to be expected. The strange thing is I redownloaded 88 through the mirror this time, wiped everything again, and wifi seemed to work fine when I was out on a public wifi earlier. Came home and it started dropping connection and reconnect on its own. I just got tired after trying everything I could think of and flashed 87 and all works well now. My only guess is 88 hates my wifi security but I check if the mac address changed and all the other settings on my home router. Weird... oh well:)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] carsenj:
Trying to Go back to the last build that worked great with everything. Does anyone else have a problem accessing the DL's. I have tried to dl multiple versions and i get an error stating that they do not exist. Also any thing I should know before downgrading. I'm at #88 now I want to step back to #77.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] martonikaj:
Where have you been downloading from? cyanogenmod.com? I've never had issues downloading there.

What issues specifically? there have been a lot of kernel changes in the last 5 builds or so, but other than that nothing huge since #77.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sino8r:
89 is out...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] thugjedi:
anyone have any first impressions on 89
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] NuShrike:
Since you can't get 1024MHz but 1.1Ghz with the .35 kernel, you should be getting around 18xx (17xx @ real 1GHz; 15xx in 800MHz; @ +1 point per MHz) in Quadrant. These are .32 kernel numbers.

I refuse to use any build past #77 because all of them have degraded performance -- about minus 300 points.

Benchmarks are the only objective, standardized, non-placebo measuring stick that will be consistent across mutiple users for the same device and set up. It's not about bragging rights.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] autom8r:
#89 is buttery smooth! Car mode problems gone for first two hours so far, not sure if reinstall fixed the problem.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] martonikaj:
http://cm-nightlies.appspot.com/?device=vision

Not even gonna bother. 2 commits for things I don't even use.

Must've been the reinstall. Nothing else recently should have anything to do with Car Home.

Anyone having problems with the GPS with build 88?

It would work perfectly at first (locks in 5 seconds easily) but as I drive along, about 10 minutes later, Google Navigation would say GPS signal lost and never get it back =(
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] martonikaj:
Interesting. Don't feel like going for a drive, but just keeping GPS on and using maps to move around shows a complete GPS lock in navigation for a few minutes of use. Weird :(
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sino8r:
I think my issues with wifi (and downloads fail from the market now) might be sd card related. The failing downloads from market are a huge hint:o

the guy with gps issues... there is an free app called gps status in the market that lets you delete AGPS data and download new data. it always fixes gps issues along as you can get a fix and sometimes if it can't get a fix, period. good luck!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] elracing21:
I was having the same wifi issues you posted earlier. All I did was format the cache, wipe dalvik and flashed the latest nightly then fix permissions. It has been working so far but I had the same wifi hangups and not detecting any wifi connections even tho I'm a foot away from the router and my laptop is right there connected too.

I say just try another nightly and see what you get =/

I'm running 88 and got 2070 with 1.1GHz.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] crachel:
Please, don't interrupt the 6 pages of Quandrant score discussions..

Anyways, this is in the issue tracker with 100+ stars and I still have this problem on #88.

A solution is to download the Gingerbread leak here

yank out

/system/lib/hw/gps.vision.so

/system/lib/libhtc_ril.so

and then push them to your phone:

adb remount

adb push gps.vision.so /system/lib/hw/

adb push libhtc_ril.so /system/lib/

You also need the leaked Gingerbread radio (26.08.04.30) and I would wipe efs, /cache, and Dalvik. Also, perform nandroid prior to all this since you're pushing system files.

dyndragon says this works and I've done it on my phone I have just not extensively had a chance to test the Nav app, however. please report back.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] nakeman:
agreed.

i think #77 is better for me and no significant bug was found so far. just turned back to #77 from #88

Anyone have an issue using the stock gingerbread launcher not working?

I was previously running 86, and was able to push Launcher2.apk into system\app and it worked fine, but now.. nothing :(
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
YEP. Same thing with me been happening for awhile. If you open the gps test app it NEVER loses the lock. Only maps and navigation. Only workaround is to close navigation and open it back up real quick. Its almost like it does not know how to get it back after its been lost.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ChronoReverse:
Thanks. I'll try this out and see if it helps.

Yeah, that's exactly the problem I was having. It's perfectly fine in GPS Status (I always use it to reset the GPS when flashing a new updated) but Navigation loses lock and doesn't seem to know how to get it back until I exit and restart the app.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] EdKeys:
It seems the problem only exists with Google Navigation. I have another navigation app and that one does not lose lock. I used it to drive about 110 miles and it didn't shut down gps at all.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] G1ForFun:
Those of you losing GPS in maps...try using Titanium Backup to wipe the Maps data and then remove Maps all together via Titanium Backup as well. Then go onto the market and re download the latest maps.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ChronoReverse:
I'll try that next. For now it seems the Gingerbread libs and radio solved my problem.
