Hello, i'm coming from LeeDroid v2.3b A2SD+ ROM and i'd like to testing CM7 RC1. I have a PVT4 40000 device (newer model), before flashing do i have to format my SD card back to a single FAT32 partition? Because now i have 2 partitions for A2SD+ required for LeeDroid (FAT32 + EXT3) and does CWM v2.5.1.3 works with CM7, thank you very much for your help! :).
[Desire Android Development] Pedro80:
..why?

And the question arises.. why is 'HTC-RIL 2.2.0014G Sep 24 2010' included in the latest nightlies i n the first place?

'HTC-RIL 1.6.1062G' is supposed to be default AOSP, probably thorougly tested etc..

And judging from the Desire RIL thread, the 2.2.0014G RIL Isn't listed as tested/compatible with any of the most used radios..
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
Long time is about 8 hours (over night) on WiFi without disconnect. Went all day on WiFi yesterday and couldn't reproduce - then today, first time I went out of the house, mobile data failed to disconnect :(

Just went to pound his thanks button, thanks for the reminder :)

Is the change in RIL listed somewhere on CMSrc or gerrit?
[Desire Android Development] StuMcBill:
I am sorry, but I have no idea how to check?
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
If I knew how, I wouldn't ask either :D

I've been searching manually, but haven't found anything so far. Wonder who's responsible for changing RIL on Bravo... maybe Kali, or maybe he at least knows?

-edit- Just asked on #teamdesire...
[Desire Android Development] StuMcBill:
Is teamdesire on freenode?
[Desire Android Development] Kali-:
nightlies are made for testing, i have updated the ril but sames to a problem for some use

just restored 1.6 ril
[Desire Android Development] StuMcBill:
Thanks Kali!!
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
Yep, but you seem to have found it ok :p

"Sorry, you are limited to 5 Thanks a day!"

So thanks, manually ;)
[Desire Android Development] serialkillazzs:
bluetooth gamepad support cm7?
[Desire Android Development] yukkio:
Nevermind, I hadn't free space in system lol
[Desire Android Development] Rohaq:
Kali-: Any word on the problems I've been having below?

I've tried changing regulatory domains and the RIL, both with no effect. Changing my access point to channel 11 gets me connected again. It looks like the OS is just ignoring the regulatory domain setting completely.
[Desire Android Development] DomFel:
You're kidding right? So you want a FREE custom-built ROM to respect regulatory domain settings for each country?? I even doubt HTC does respect that in their official ROMs.

BTW, have you guys tried coutt's 2.6.38 kernel? Just give it a go and post your results, might be of some help for others.
[Desire Android Development] Rohaq:
There's a setting under the advanced wifi settings that allows you to specify the channel range, which all previous builds, both official Android and CyanogenMod, have always respected during wifi scans.

Way to be a moron though.
[Desire Android Development] 69mws:
I noticed another thing: When Wifi is connected and I've left its range, the lockscreen still shows in the notification area the symbol for a connected wifi.

After unlocking the screen it seems to realize 'Oops, wifi is gone' and begins to switch over to mobile data. Anyone else noticed this?

P.S.: Using #6 with RIL 1.6
[Desire Android Development] Demirulez:
I've realised that i posted in the wrong thread, I'd like to try the RC1 version of CM7 so do i have to post my question in the other thread? Sorry for that.
[Desire Android Development] DomFel:
Nice to know. So actually you're complaining about a feature that mostly nobody uses. Why in the world would I want to auto-limit my S-off and rooted phone to just 11 wifi channels, and not freeing it to use all 13 ones?

Guess if you were the owner of a Ferrari you would have limited it to UK speed limits, right? :meh:
[Desire Android Development] Rohaq:
I guess it's time for a lesson in the legalities of radio spectrum usage.

The bug is that in nightly #5 (last I checked this), you're limited to 11 channels, rather than reading the regulatory domain setting. The reason such settings are in place is because different countries allow different frequency ranges for wifi: In the USA, you're limited to the first 11 channels, because using anything higher is actually against the law. If you got caught with an access point or device using those channels by the authorities, you'd be fined a pretty decent amount of money for using restricted areas of the spectrum.

In the UK, we're slightly more relaxed, and allow up to 13 channels for wifi, meaning we can use less congested areas of the radio spectrum and potentially improve wifi performance. Japan allows up to channel 14, hence why there is a wifi regulatory domain setting in the first place.

So yes, it is mildly annoying that us other countries are having our 'Ferraris' subjected to your US 'speed limit', and hopefully something that is easily corrected.
[Desire Android Development] DomFel:
Got the point now. Didn't realize that the issue was that latest builds are limited to the first 11 channels. Thought is was viceversa.

Thanks by the way!
[Desire Android Development] zlatkowolverine:
Can you pls post the wallpaper its really fantastic looking tnx.
[Desire Android Development] Nekromantik:
did a wipe and a flash of latest nightly.

still getting battery drain.

hope this gets sorted soon, Sense HD had better battery then these recent nightlies.
[Desire Android Development] Osleg:
I took it from wallpapers gallery of one of designers here on xda, I will check where it located tomorrow and will link you.

Mad-murdoc, is this hard to implement to show the clock in notification area when you start to open the notification bar? Just next to date?

Swyped from Cyanogenmod enabled Desire
[Desire Android Development] Rohaq:
Even if it were fixed to 13/14 channel scanning, the ROM should allow people to switch to less channels regardless; lest somebody get in trouble for scanning channels that they shouldn't in countries where the spectrum is more restricted.

It's highly unlikely, but there are always legal matters to consider with these things.
[Desire Android Development] CharlieCharlie24:
Done a full wipe before installing #6 and the battery life seems a lot better now.
[Desire Android Development] totzkotz:
have seen this N1 OTA thread

so the camera app could be changed like cm6 right? .... would be nice ;)

could you insert an option to change shutter speed for videorecording?
[Desire Android Development] wph:
So if I understand well, even if I set channels to 14, it won't find WiFi on 11+?
[Desire Android Development] Rohaq:
That was my experience on build #5, I'm on #6 now, but don't want to mess with my access point whilst my housemates are using the internet.
[Desire Android Development] najar360:
i notice on build 6, when my wifi disconnect, data gprs will be auto on.

but power control never show that my data is activate and also inside wireless setting on data option is untick.
[Desire Android Development] ziggy1001:
Really trivial point but on build #5 i have these blank gray circles on the pull- down bar, don't remember seeing it before! and there's more of them as you drag to the right
[Desire Android Development] ziggy1001:
On build #5 if i set wifi to 13 channels i can connect on 11 but not 12 and 13
[Desire Android Development] CharlieCharlie24:
I have this issue as well
[Desire Android Development] Zenx:
I notice that under battery use display, the stats are not reseted it use to be. Very weird :confused:
[Desire Android Development] salleq:
Umm does juice defender work for you? For me it says it can't find a way to control 3g. Also I remember seeing those circles in RC with the alternate rotary slider.
[Desire Android Development] najar360:
This jd problem, not cm7. Tasker already integrated with cm7 to control data 3g toggle
[Desire Android Development] nitrox1:
Meant to look like a rotary phone...........

[Desire Android Development] sjgore:
So now that the "update.zip" file from the N1 OTA update is available, how soon until the file(s) we have been waiting for are in the nightlies?
[Desire Android Development] Z0l:
I think only in CM 7.1, murdock said yesterday that the update came out too late for CM7.0
[Desire Android Development] CrazyCypher:
And when 7.1 will come out?
[Desire Android Development] lazarost:
In Build #7 there is still the bug introduced in #6 that turning off the wifi enables 3g data even if it is explicitly disabled in the settings. Total bummer for those without a data plan.
[Desire Android Development] RedSkyRoad:
Take note of the impotency notice in first thread... :P
[Desire Android Development] Nekromantik:
Im getting that too.

I have to enable and disable data using power widget to stop data.
[Desire Android Development] Narfx:
Yep, same here :/
[Desire Android Development] Calpietzo:
same problem
[Desire Android Development] wph:
Is the bug still there in night #7? It is also present in Oxygen, so is it an AOSP thing?
[Desire Android Development] ziggy1001:
Different people are having different results on build #5 i can connect on channel 11 but not 12,13

TBH connecting to channel 11 for me is not an advantage as it seems a lot of routers use this channel as default here in the UK which means in a high density population area you may have a dozen or so routers all close by using the same frequency so best to choose a channel no one else's using and cut down on any potential interference, i use CH6 as no one nearby uses that ;)
[Desire Android Development] StuMcBill:
Wouldn't that go against the "ethos" of the CyanogenMod AOSP Only policies?
[Desire Android Development] ziggy1001:
Not to mention asking very silly questions about deadlines :p
[Desire Android Development] mbroeders:
I agree with the 'never ask for ETA', but I don't fully understand the 'going against the ethos'? Isn't the update supposed to provide the necessary libs to enable videorecording (or at least better quality and a less 'dirty' fix)? So, that would only mean an improvement, but still AOSP right?!

-Edit- BTW, installed nightly #7 this morning and it's great so far! Love the battery percentage and the rotary lockscreen (getting better and better Mad-Murdock, thanks!)...
[Desire Android Development] marinierb:
Look at the instructions for compiling the Cyanogen ROM. It includes a step to grab the proprietary libs from your phone. So, yeah, I don't understand the comment about this being AOSP either.
[Desire Android Development] StuMcBill:
Oh, I thought one of the "rules" of CyanogenMod was that (apart from community coded content) it all had to come from AOSP.

I was obviously mistaken...apologies!
[Desire Android Development] sjgore:
The 2.3.3 update

is

AOSP! Straight from Google.

Exactly.
[Desire Android Development] marinierb:
Unfortunately, there will always be device specific libraries that are proprietary. Even my Linux installation at home has proprietary drivers for the video card.
[Desire Android Development] madman_cro:

[Desire Android Development] CharlieCharlie24:
Is there a reason why there's no 5MP Widescreen option on the Camera?
[Desire Android Development] salleq:
Propably totally off-topic, and I'm sorry about that, but I have to ask.

Yesterday I flashed nightly #6, and this morning I unplugged my phone as fully charged. Then just for the kicks, I tried disabling "use network location" because I've noticed that even if I'm not logged into Latitude, Maps is taking some juice (not much, but still). Today I haven't even seen Maps on my battery draining app list, and my battery life has been best, ever? about 1,6% per hour only.

Okay, I haven't been using my phone a lot today, but still, it seems like this one setting changed a lot. Is it possible? Or just a placebo?
[Desire Android Development] mercianary:
In a nut shell I think 4MP wide is actually 5MP with the top and bottom removed, therefore 5MP wide would be 6MP with top and bottom removed, not going to happen with a 5MP camera.
[Desire Android Development] marinierb:
Actually, you didn't change just one setting. You also flashed a new nightly. That's two changes.
[Desire Android Development] nitrox1:
Hello all again, since i last moaned i have to admit wiping David cache before flashes has really improved my life and phone, even trying cache wipe too.

Anyway to the point, any reason why I cannot connect to a wireless router that has a hidden ssid? I know you could before.

Desire is the source of all suffering.
[Desire Android Development] Rohaq:
What channel is it on? There's a bug at the moment where the phone ignores your wifi regulatory domain, and can't connect to networks that are on wireless channels above 11.
[Desire Android Development] nitrox1:
Well, connects perfectly well when ssid is available ( as in not channel dependant), but cm6 used to have option to connect to hidden ssid, but cm7 will not connect.

As this is a common router setting, I am surprised it is not available.

Desire is the source of all suffering.
[Desire Android Development] mercianary:
Has anyone noticed the behavior of the optical trackpad changed from cm6 to 7?

In the past a "long" run over the trackpad would move the curser 3 places, this is no longer the case, it only moves 1. Maybe it's because the device gingerbread was made for doesn't have an optical trackpad.

I know most people don't even use the oj but I use it all the time with connect bot and this is beginning to do my head in.
[Desire Android Development] gspibsp:
I've also noticed this, but with Redux. I think it's a common problem in gingerbread ROMS.

By the way, in therms of battery life, how is CM7 performing? I'm with Redux, but at the end of the day I'm having just a 50% remaning, which I consider it's too much with a light-normal usage of the phoene. Would you recommend CM to me?
[Desire Android Development] Nekromantik:
im still having problems downloading apks from browser on last nights build.

even after wipe!

this has been going on since build 1.

[Desire Android Development] auda86:
Hey guys. Not sure if this issue is a common one or was discussed before, tried searching the thread but couldn't find an answer. Sometimes trying to wake the phone takes 7-10 presses on the wake button, other times only 1 time. Did anyone notice this? if so is there any solution for it? Thanks

[Desire Android Development] owenjm:
I don't have that problem with build #5 or any previous builds (but I first connected to my hidden SSID router way back in the early nightlies, so it's possible that something recent has broken the functionality in making the connection ... I'll try to remember to test it once I get home) I haven't used the most recent builds because of the reported wifi->3G data switching bug, so can't comment on them.

What happens when you click on "Add Wi-Fi Network" and add the SSID name? Does it simply say that the network is not in range, or does it try to connect and fail?
[Desire Android Development] RedSkyRoad:
I've had this problem as well, but 3 presses at most using trackpad to wake - but not everytime - just on the off chance... I then just use power to wake...
[Desire Android Development] najar360:
You on cm7 kernel or other kernel?
[Desire Android Development] RedSkyRoad:
CM7 kernel #4
[Desire Android Development] skedone:
yep major wifi problems with this build it cant even find mine and when it does it says not in range lol even tho im in same room as router and other android phones are fine
[Desire Android Development] [armitage]:
Just FYI...the bug that data connects,after disabling wifi,eventhough it's not enabled is still there in #7.

Really annoying...

But at least the gallery works fine again.:)

But still going back to #5 for now.
[Desire Android Development] nitrox1:
You used to be able to tick a box saying connect even if ssid is hidden.

Ii connect with ssid showing, then turn off ssid, and shows network is not in range.

Then if I add network, and manually add network, it again shows network is not in range.

On build 6 then, on 7 now.

Haven't tried to connect to a hidden network previously.

Edit; on 11 channel setting, and using a particular channel. A slight switching problem with hsdpa network this morning, but also had bad signal anyway. WiFi works fine.

Desire is the source of all suffering.
[Desire Android Development] H17737:
I'm also having this issue since the RC1 along with GPS problems (doesn't even activate, maybe it's due to the new RIL)

and of course, like everyone, 3G lights up without asking for anything since build > #5
[Desire Android Development] 7pellc:
The problem has nothing to do with hidden SSID's. The problem arises from the maximum channel setting. The ROM is ignoring the Regulatory Domain channel setting and setting to an 11 ch max. Just alter you AP or Router (if you can) to use channel 11, 6 or 1 (non overlapping channels). Hidden or not hidden; it will work.
[Desire Android Development] MrDevil:
Just switched back to nightlies, wasn't aware of the ril change. Must I switch to another radio? If yes any recommendations? Currently on the froyo one.

Sent via homing pigeons
[Desire Android Development] H17737:
First check your RIL version under a terminal emulator with these commands:

- su

- getprop "gsm.version.ril-impl"

Then flash the matching radio (look for the pinned threads):

* Radios 32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27 & 32.54.00.32U_5.14.05.17 ==> HTC-RIL 2.2.0028HM

* Radio 32.48.00.32U_5.11.05.14 ==> HTC-RIL 2.2.0025HM

* Radio 32.47.00.32U_5.10.05.23 ==> HTC-RIL 2.2.0015HM

* Radios 32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2 & 32.46.00.32U_5.10.05.17_2 ==> HTC-RIL 2.2.0015HM

EDIT: weird i'm sure i had the new RIL in buid 5 but looks like i have the 1.6.xxxx one now, i'll just reflash it…
[Desire Android Development] ziggy1001:
I think Kali changed it back to 1.6.xxx can't remember the exact reason but he did post why somewhere
[Desire Android Development] niksha89:
i tried flashing newest RIL (radio 5.11.05.27), and it ended in disaster, after reboot i got signal for 20 sec, and then it died and wouldnt come up, all tho gps and wifi worked, same after next few reboots...

reflashing radio and ril again didnt help, same again, had to wipe and reflash rom...
[Desire Android Development] H17737:
@niksha89

sorry seems to exist some problems with RIL changing and CM7 (nightlies ?)

build #8 out

will look into the changes

EDIT: GPS isn't fixed

still having 3G and trackball issues
[Desire Android Development] LuffyPSP:
mine is RIL 1.6.1062G, which radio is for me to use?
[Desire Android Development] ziggy1001:
What isn't working?
[Desire Android Development] LuffyPSP:
i ocassionally have a random 3G/H signal dropped, and when inside a building, the H icon will hang while browsing. dont matter any building it'll just stuck on the arrow showing the UP direction, no DOWN direction. I never had this on other roms. and even on cm6 its working alright.

last night i flashed the latest radio from 5.11 radio. no changes~~
[Desire Android Development] Osleg:
[quite] lots of problems[/quote]

Now that's is really weird,flashing every possible nightly..

GPS issue: connecting to satellites, losing connection almost instantly, reenabling gps and everything works fine.

Wifi...have my router on channel 13, connecting without any trouble. Also phone coming back to 2g/3g without any problems...

Didn't change ril, using cyanogenmod's stock system.

What am I doing wrong?
[Desire Android Development] warden:
Moving the wifi network here to a lower channel solved the connection issues. Was having the same issue at work so moved that too. I was running 11 on both and the newer froyo/gingerbread ROMS hated it for some reason.
[Desire Android Development] Osleg:
You have to switch regulatory domain to allow more than 11 channels. Tho people here report it doesn't really works.

Flashed nightly 8 now, everything works fine including gps, wifi and mobile data. Going to try to switch between 2g to 3g and vice versa

Edit:

Switching between network types works good, networks change states in seconds...

Guys I think there something another wrong...should be something that you all have in common and I don't cuz I have 2 desires and both work awesome

Can anyone confirm this issue: search-button doesn't work in the inbox for exchange email. Have had this problem in every nightly and RC1 of this rom.

It's really a problem for me since i get so many work emails and searching is the best way of finding oldef messages.
[Desire Android Development] Osleg:
Confirming, it doesn't work in mail app, works in every other tho
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
Yup, the dialer seems to hang after calls sometimes. Had it on RC1 too, you could file a bug report on the CM issue tracker...

Hmmm... A reboot seems to solve the problem. Btw does anyone have problems with camera flash? tried taking a photo with flash on doesn't seem to work. tried with vignette and default camera.

Guys

DO NOT FLASH RILs

from the RIL thread!!

They are NOT meant to be used with AOSP rom!!!

They're SENSE only rom!!
[Desire Android Development] itshotinhere:
I'll read further in that case. I'm running the .54 radio with the .49 RIL and have no complaints. Best battery life ever - about 0.5% per hour in standby (although I'm on Oxygen today...perhaps back to CM7 tomorrow ;-) What's the problem meant to be?
[Desire Android Development] madman_cro:
so is n1 ota files included in last nightly?
[Desire Android Development] niksha89:
yes, nightly #7
[Desire Android Development] niksha89:
its still 2.3.2 -> so no latest ota inside. i think someone said it will be in 7.1.

looks like mobile data enabling after wifi turning off bug is still there...
