I agree. Not sure why people would hold it that long, but if you do hold it until the camera actually launches, its a good 4-5 seconds, vibrating the whole time.

Anyone know where I can find the download database or so to try and clear caches or data maybe?? I posted yesterday but got no reply about having issues with downloading from browser, it states that its starting download but no progress of it in statusbar. And same with market now, until I reboot it starts working again. I checked logcat, and found that it says couldn't insert into download database. It shows that in logcat both times when download from market or browser but a reboot helps until next time during the day. I have clear market data with TB. By the way, using latest #15, stock kernal.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
I cant believe how buggy people are saying CM7 is with this whole gps fiasco. Guess ill flash and see for myself.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Vlad83:
Have you tried clearing data in download manager?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] noodles2224:
Yea, I tried both that and the one that just says downloads 2.3.3 and still get the same

Randomly bootlooping for no reason.. *sighs* and ive only been running this for about half an hour. Pulling battery.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] G1ForFun:
You have to reboot the rom at least once after flashing.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] martonikaj:
Reboot once after flashing and don't use WiFi the first time you boot.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] musky:
smooth sailing.

I have no problems what so ever. My gps works great. I didn't wipe data coming from cm6 either. Just cache and dalvick cache. I always flash through recovery as well. Cm7 is super stable for me. I was just wondering what everyone is setup with. What is the best clock speed? And what radio? I'm still using the stock radio. Like I said everything is smooth as silk for me. Just trying to figure out the optimal setup.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Fallen Spartan:
Ok, this may have nothing to do with the Nightlies, it may just be my phone, but I thought I'd ask here first in case any of you are also experiencing this.

At times my phone appears to react or move on its own accord through the tabs and occasionally even opens an app. Its almost as if its being controlled by someone else. Now this happens with or without mobile data or wifi being turned on and my location doesn't have any affect on it either. Anyone else experiencing this? My initial thoughts are its being remotely controlled or its a minor glinch with Nightlies
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] quierotacobell:
This one here:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] SomEngangVar:
Yeah, but do you mean that it worked previously with a version of CM7 and doesn't work with a newer/current one or was that a typo?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] AllWin:
Same here. Tried #12, then RC2 but all i see is endlessbootloops. I have no time to manually reboot the phone, as bootloops starts before phone gets completely loaded.

Weird.. I'm stuck on edge connection..ONLY. I have 4G (hdspa) literally everywhere but with this rom.. shows edge. And edge only. Even after flashing different radios and wiping cache, same exact result. Anybody else have weird reception now? On nightly #15

What we are seeing looking at your original post is this:

"I backed up the data for my Music application using Titanium Backup.

When I restored it to Cyanogen Mod Version 7 it worked.

But when I restored it to Cyanogen Mod Version 7, it didn't work."

We are still confused. Do you mean that it worked on one "Nightly" version, but not another? If so, which version worked, and which version did not?

Or, do you mean that it worked on Cyanogen Mod Version 6, but does not on Version 7? If this is the case, which "Nightly" of Version 7 have you tried?

I'm not trying to be a smart-ass; we just need a little more clarification to be able to help you sort out your problem.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ptesmoke:
dude!! i thought it was me going crazy! i have this exact same issue, i notice it mostly when im in "whatsapp" and ill be typing along with the keyboard and every 4 seconds the phone will automatically change focus to a different tab, messing up what im typing. at first i thought maybe my trackpad was just really moist and making false movements, but thats not the case. dunno whats causing it but i never had an issue with it before. im on RC2 fyi.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] merdely:
I haven't experienced that. I'm on #14 right now. I haven't seen that behavior with any of the other nightlies or RCs either.

When I flash, I may or may not (usually do) clear cache & dalvik, flash, and a may or may not (usually do) fix perms.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Fallen Spartan:
As I said it may have nothing to do with the Nightlies or RC's..... just wanted to confirm this
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ptesmoke:
i clear all of that before each flash, first time ive seen this issue, it is truly wierd.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] heybobitsme:
You're that this isn't a ROM issue and that it is a hardware issue.. I have the same problem and found a thread in the General section, I believe, regarding this. It seems to be an issue with how the trackpad is picking up light.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] quierotacobell:
Damn sorry my fault for not explaining it. If I back up my data on the music app that has all the playlists etc, it won't restore those playlists if I go from one cm7 nightly to another cm7 nightly, but if I ever restore to CM6 stable or CM6 rc then it works, it restores my playlists. And I've been on all nightlies and it doesn't work on any of them, as long as I don't wipe my data or factory reset when going to the next nightly.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] OriginalGabriel:
Might be a Ti problem and not a CM7 problem. There are a bunch of (unanswered) posts in the Ti support forums about CM7 issues dealing with data; personally, I can't even get the Ti update.zip to apply.

17 is out.

http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?type=nightly
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] martonikaj:
We just skipped 16 didn't we?

Either way, flashing #17. Here's to GPS fixes!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Jimmah555:
Just flashed 17. It could be because it was the first thing I opened after the install, but my Quadrant score jumped 200 points with 17. Not sure if Quadrant runs on the kernel or purely hardware though. Either way, still no problems to report. I guess I'm one of the lucky ones that hasn't ever had a GPS problem.

And yeah, we skipped 16. I'm sure there is a reason, but who really cares right?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] martonikaj:
Flashed #17. Everything worked fine. My GPS worked the first time I turned it on and used it, but as soon as you turn it off/back on, it doesn't work anymore until you reboot, then you get the same deal. GPS Test shows it being on, but not connecting, literally 30sec after I had it on before.

Should be noted that the same thing happened to me after flashing the latest radio. Works once, doesn't work again.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] quierotacobell:
Yeah I just realized that too, thanks man, gonna see if the dev can give some insights.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kalipedia:
Yeah, +1 on this particular gps issue persisting in 17. Also, the stock keyboard still gets turned on when I reboot though I use swype. I wiped cache and dalvik and use stock kernel and AUS radio.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Ymees:
Swype still fudged on 17. <sad face>

Other than that, I have no complaints. Looking forward to the next build.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bsktballstar3131:
Theres an update for swype that disables the double tap to edit for swype on 2.3.3, so far its working great for me, just gotta get used to pressing the swype button to edit words instead of double tap.

I did and it still did it. Flashed to 13 and same thing. Any ideas what's causing it?

Not for me. (clear cache, clear dalvik, flash #17, fix perms, boot, reboot, look at battery usage)

Good luck, the dev and the support folks haven't answered any posts/e-mails regarding CM7 functionality

Its not a CM problem, so therefor its not relevant to this thread. Wipe.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] philosophics:
Stay on topic.

The best way to avoid gettin flammed is to read the thread or search for a post in the thread with a keyword about your problem. Sort of a rule no one seems to follow...

Really don't wanna sift through pages of dummies and flammers.

No offense, just sayin...

Watch as this post gets completely ignored on the next post...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] androidtoy09:
There u have it. lol

Anyway, any chance the douche team or Cyanogen will implement a built-in overclock kernel? (wishful thinking):p

I personally don't like to use SetCPU :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] gravis86:
Lol are you trying to troll?

The stock Kernel is an OC kernel... It can go up to 1.5GHz. :rolleyes:

If you don't like SetCPU (and I don't know why you wouldn't) then you can make an OC script yourself or use any of many other OC programs on the Market.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] androidtoy09:
no, i wasn't trying to troll anything and I appologize for being cynical (having a bad day)

I should have made it clear but I meant a built-in tool to set the cpu frequencies without having to use SetCPU like Enomther's ROM
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cparekh:
The kernel is already an OC kernel. Do you mean one in which it just runs OC'ed all the time? That would make a lot of people unhappy and kill battery life. If you don't like SetCPU, just write your own scripts to control the clock speed. SetCPU is a shortcut to make life easier. There are also competing programs.

Sorry if this has been asked, but why does the phone icon open straight to call log instead of dialer? I prefer it opening to dialer tbh. Any simple fix or will I have to decompile the apk?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] primatage:
I did notice something in the gerrit that sounds like what you're looking for, but it's been there for weeks and looks like it may have stalled out. Plus, it's listed under branch:Froyo, which may or may not mean it could possibly end up in CM7 sometime in the future. Who knows! But in the meantime it looks like SetCPU or one of the many other similar tools out there are your only option.

Here's a link to the gerrit mention - http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#change,1778

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] philosophics:
I just now noticed this. The statusbar stays the same but the lock sliders are not gingerbread lock sliders.

Very interesting catch buddy!

If you haven't opened up the framework-res.apk then you wouldn't know about how weird it is right now. There's a lot of froyo png's in there but don't work. For example, the status bar. Within framework-res, the status bar .png's are the same for froyo. The peculiar thing is that they don't work... right now anyway.

I've tried modifying the statusbar myself but it doesn't stick. Something is telling the status bar to stay ...black.

This has nothing to do with the nightly builds, just bringing up the fact that framework-res.apk (where the lock sliders reside) is still goofy and will most likely be worked on at some point before rc builds.

Biggest reason I've put my theme on hold for now...

It was mentioned a little while ago the Team Douche modifies the framework on an almost daily basis. Just be patient and things should get handled...

Going back to RC2, the latest release where GPS was working for me every time.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kara mustafa:
BTW has anyone a solution to the GPS issue?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] NuShrike:
Confirming screwy GPS on #15 and #17 which won't activate after I turn it off and on (#12 and #14 worked fine). Tested with Google Maps, Waze, and Navigon.

radio: 12.28h.60.140fU_26.06.02.27_M (AUS radio)

edit:

Went back to #14 for daily driver.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] userfriendlyme:
Gps has always worked from me up until the last update where if you turn off gps and back on it didn't work. Since I do not turn off gps usually on my phone its something I can live with but also agree that issue is still present in #17.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] BootloopedMillennials:
This was suppose to be the build with more GPS fixes, correct? If it is, hasn't fixed anything for me. GPS still dead, no signs of GPS working; no icon, no lock in any app. Keep on having to replace the gps.vison.so with the Build #4 version.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] JackD3ath:
Im not saying this is the cause for any problem, but why have sd partition, didnt they make this phone with lots of memory so you wouldnt need to do that? I would bet that having a Ext partition larger than 500Mb is causing problems for some people.

I am on Build 17, performed my same install routine, and everything works great.

(on new radio)

backup

mount system, mount data

clear cache, clear dalvik

install

fix permission

reboot

after startup, reboot

It sounds like things arent being replaced, I remember this happening with G1, and having Ext partition too large.

Just trying to help people with problems think about another possibilty...not saying i know.

Yes lol from what i learned on my g2 have 1gig is good but if u get larger than that you will get some issues

Captain obvious stating the obvious. Brilliant. Good laugh over here. Check your thanks meter (for the laugh).
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] HLeenders:
I can confirm this. Starting CoPilot after flashing then GPS works. Although at that point in the settings of location and security the option GPS-satellites is disabled. If you enable it through the settings or through some widget CoPilot cannot find GPS anymore, no matter you disable it again or not. After reboot CoPilot tells me it can't find GPS and asks to go into settings to enable GPS. After enabling the GPS icon appears on the notification bar and it finds a fix in 10 seconds. Bottom line; if it works, don't fix it.;)

Any news on. A fix for the video playback issue?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] blk_jack:
GPS issue for me doesn't seem to matter which gps.vision.so file I copy (from any previous Nightly builds), or which Radio I use. I'm able to get a GPS lock the first time I enable GPS after booting into the ROM. If I disable GPS and re-enable it I cannot get a lock again.

Due to the GPS issues Ive gone back to the preloaded Stock Froyo rom with Pershoot's kernel. Will keep checking in on this thread, once the issue is fixed Im jumping back on board. Gingerbread makes Froyo look so dated, even though performance wise Froyo seems more snappy.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] erieboyz:
I see everyone having these issues with the GPS but I never see a post on how great the rom actually is. Hats off to cyanogen for an amazing rom!

It is quite an amazing ROM. Despite the post above it actually runs snappier for me than cm6.1!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] klmsu19:
Agree. If others can do better, instead of whining, then fix the issue yourselves.

No appreciation for a good ROM. And let's remember THIS IS A BETA ROM, if something doesnt work and you can't handle it, go back to stock or an older stable ROM.

We now have at least 20 pages worth of "my gps doesnt work" posts wasting space to sort through. Like you all honestly don't think Cyanogen is aware of the issue without posting it over and over and over again?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] NuShrike:
Sure, those are annoying because some refuse to upgrade their stock radios, and others are weirdly having issues even with newer radios.

The ROM itself is pretty good otherwise.

HOWEVER, this GPS problem is NEW. Showed up in #15 continues in #17, and is exhibited by GPS not returning after it's turned off and then on in Location. Read it.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] klmsu19:
That's a totally different, newer issue.

This is going way back to the old numbering "my gps isnt working at all! my gps isnt working!"

Because that really helps or is descriptive... It's just making this thread 500 some pages where you cant find anything now because every other post is "my gps isnt working"

No one can even discuss the ROM, features, other bugs, etc. anymore without gps getting in the way.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] merdely:
This thread isn't a circlejerk about how awesome the ROM is. Most of us wouldn't be here if we didn't feel that Cyanogen and the ROM weren't awesome.

Wouldn't it be more annoying for post #2 to read "Email app is working great. Thanks for the ROM" followed by 5000 "me too" posts. The point of the forum is to discuss issues and to try to find solutions.

I don't remember seeing one "GPS isn't working, the devs suck" post.

Could I make a better ROM than Cyanogen? No. And do I constantly post about every awesome element to the ROM and what a perfect person Steve is? No. I contribute by asking questions. Answering others' questions when I can. And donating via cyanogenmod.com every once in a while. (Twice to date).
