Yeah...n124 seems really nice. No issues for me yet.
[HTC Aria Android Development] boxcar8028:
im on cm7 n124 + dc891 all is running well and super smooth. what's up with this, in n125 "Also handle usb_connected (like usb_configuration) states coming up from the USB driver in the kernel (e.g. Samsung SGS2), that also notify the framework that UMS is available" and coming soon in n126 "Add CMScreenshot to builds" this should be awesome.

Has anyone been able to disable the sound in their camera apps as of yet?
[HTC Aria Android Development] drumist:
They added the ability to disable the sound but didn't yet add a way to toggle it in the UI. However you can do it through terminal. Open terminal emulator and type:

Hey guys..

I'm having a problem with bluetooth in my car.

The phone stuff works fine, connects automatically and I can make calls etc... but for the life of me I cant seem to be able to play music through BT.

I tried BT Music through a friends iPhone4 and it works fine, and I know my phone should be able to do it but it just wont work.
[HTC Aria Android Development] cHarley04:
Go to: Menu > Settings > Wireless & Networks > Bluetooth Settings > (turn on bluetooth and wait for it to go active) > now long press your BT Device name > select Options and make sure BOTH Phone and Media are checked.
[HTC Aria Android Development] lsusparky621:
If you have S-OFF, you can use Root Explorer to mount R/W and go into /system/media/audio/ui/ to delete camera_click.ogg

I find it easier than opening the zip.
[HTC Aria Android Development] brivette007:
Still have to get into the mood to do S-Off. (Some brewskies might do)

You have to upgrade to the official 2.2.2 to get the new hboot, right?

Anyway, loving the touch-to-focus feature on 127. I forgot about that feature from Sense.

Also, battery life with 125-127 with dc's 8-9-1 has been amazing the last few days. After 30 minutes of heavy 3G action :D, my battery only drains 10%. It's already gone down 50% or more in that time period on previous nightlies.
[HTC Aria Android Development] drumist:
Yes, but if you do a Nandroid backup before you do anything else, you can just restore it afterward and it'll be like nothing changed on your phone -- except you have S-OFF.
[HTC Aria Android Development] brivette007:
That was pretty painless. I am now officially S'ed Off! :p

It was kinda nice to see ol' Sense again. But the CM theme I'm using looks virtually identical.

[HTC Aria Android Development] dh4645:
i dont know what s-off is, but i dld the .zips to my work pc, use winrar to just delete the camera_click.ogg file, transfer to my sd card and then flash.

i dont have enough of a data plan to download straight to my phone and i never think of it when i.m at home on wifi....too busy with other stuff
[HTC Aria Android Development] CallMeAria:
The aria will not stream media via bluetooth if the paired device is not stereo (like most bluetooth ear pieces). If its a mono connection the aria will not recognize it as bring able to play music and wont send the audio. There are apps that work around this though and force all audio over bluetooth regardless of whether its mono or stereo. I'm guessing the in-car bluetooth (in this case) is designed just for calls and so is a mono connection.

[HTC Aria Android Development] madsnake53:
hey should i switch to the nightly builds or stick with the stable release
[HTC Aria Android Development] kabell4:
That depends on the bluetooth system in the car, too. I have UConnect in my Chrysler that doesn't stream music from the phone, but my wife has Sync in her Ford which does. I need to switch cars.
[HTC Aria Android Development] kabell4:
Although I'm on CM7.1 RC1, most of the nightlies are great. I will be flashing the latest one in a minutes. Depending on what changes, I normally flash a new nightly every 5 to 10 updates. I do, however, tend to wait to see how people report on the functionality first.

I don't see much point in it. There wasn't anything in 132 for the Liberty/Aria.

[HTC Aria Android Development] kaboose01:
came across a small bug today involving having volume wake and power button ends call active all at once. Cm7 will end a call if you try to adjust in-call volume with the phone up to your ear.

pretty cool actually...thanks for sharing!
[HTC Aria Android Development] DanGeorges:
Nightly 132 very unresponsive

I'm hoping that 134 fixes this, but 132 was pretty unresponsive - especially to soft buttons.

Sometimes I needed more than a couple of tries to get them to work.

Same thing with general screen sluggishness and non or slow response to finger presses.

...
[HTC Aria Android Development] cHarley04:
Did you come from 131 to 132? It doesn't look like there was anything in 132 for Liberty.
[HTC Aria Android Development] DanGeorges:
I went from 128 to 132.

I'm on 134 now, and it's just fine.

[HTC Aria Android Development] DanGeorges:
Volume won't adjust when in a call

I've seen one other mention of this problem in the last few nightlies (starting, I think, with 131)

When I am in a call and the screen is off (phone against ear), the volume buttons will not work to adjust the in-call volume.

I must move the phone away from my ear to wake the screen, at which point the volume buttons work.

Anyone know when this problem may be resolved?

I am using nightly 135

Over the last few nightlies, Bluetooth Voice Dialer has not been working for me, i.e. it always says "no result". Normal voice dialer works fine. Voice Search using bluetooth works fine. During a call with bluetooth, I can hear the other person, but they can't hear me. Does anyone else experience this issue?
[HTC Aria Android Development] dh4645:
i have n139 and i am getting random restarts (probably about 3 or 4 times since yesterday) and calls that only half ring and then it's a missed call...even though the person calling said it rang through until it got to voicemail.
[HTC Aria Android Development] SoCalHTCFuze:
Same here on 139 with the random restarts. I ran fix permissions in the rom manager and formatted the cache partition in recovery. That seemed to resolve them for now. Was also getting GPS notification constantly but that too seems to have stopped. Just dealing with a slightly faster battery drain at the moment.
[HTC Aria Android Development] loursonbrun:
Same over here with nightly 139, plus add browsing web pages is almost impossible while on data connectivity: pages seem to start loading but never get displayed.

Fixing permissions, formatting cache, wiping dalvik-cache, etc. do not change the situation.
[HTC Aria Android Development] mikelebz:
I am having none of these issues. I just upgraded to n140 (P.S. I am using skyfire browser)
[HTC Aria Android Development] DroidRunner:
139 mine just reboots all the time.
[HTC Aria Android Development] loursonbrun:
I tried with both the stock and dolphin ... I'll just flash the nightly 140 and see what gives ... fingers crossed !
[HTC Aria Android Development] boxcar8028:
been on n139 since yesterday, so far so good. all is still running smooth with no random restarts no gps or browser problems. Im using, dolphin hd 6.0
[HTC Aria Android Development] retired_mnbooze:
I wiped Cache and Dalvik when flashing n139. I didn't realize it until seeing this, but I am getting reboots too. They aren't full reboots. I first noticed that my Recent Apps were empty after hours of "uptime", but Android System Info still reports uptime as "full" per my flashing reboot time...

Update: Also I tried Fix Permissions, but have had reboots since. Additionally, I have a "stuck" LED notification (with no other pending notifications)
[HTC Aria Android Development] hi2u2:
The restarts are triggered by the screen powering off when in landscape mode, whether via power switch or timeout. This has been fixed in n140.
[HTC Aria Android Development] retired_mnbooze:
I'll buy that! I moved to n140 shortly after my previous post, and haven't had a restart since. Thanks hi2u2.
[HTC Aria Android Development] dh4645:
yeah i knew it was something with the screen going off since it would usually happen right after i used it, then laid it down. i was also getting high battery drain as another person mentioned. gonna update now. hopefully fixed in N141
[HTC Aria Android Development] DroidRunner:
No restarts what so ever in 140.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Noobla_Khan:
Seems fine in N141.

just flashed n142 so far so good. no issues.

[HTC Aria Android Development] cHarley04:
Just my 2¢, but I've found I have fewer problems if I boot the phone and let it stabilize for a few minutes after flashing a Nightly, and then go back and flash the kernel.

Note: Especially, if your running an ext 3/4 partition.
[HTC Aria Android Development] mikelebz:
I've heard that too, however I've never had issues with flashing all at once previously. I will attempt flashing one at a time tomorrow probably unless of course a whole slew of commits makes its way into the to-be-included in the next nightly section.

[HTC Aria Android Development] dandrumheller:
I'm on n140 with drownings 8.9.1 kernel, and in an area with strong 3g signal and connected to wifi for data, all background data turned on, I am seeing about 1.5% battery drain per hour with zero use of the device. I am running 120/600 og smartass. Also, I am 3 days out from a battery stat wipe, so this may have an impact as well...
[HTC Aria Android Development] boxcar8028:
I'm not sure why but my battery is draining really fast. last night my battery went from 100 to 75 in 7 hrs, thats 3.5% battery drain per hour, that's too high. I'm not using any live wall paper and I have try changing some of my performance settings but it doesn't seem to help. cpu spy shows that my aria is deep sleeping and in spare parts battery history shows nothing abnormal..... I'll try flashing n146 and maybe uninstalling some widgets to see if it will help.

cm7 n143 + OC 8.9.1
[HTC Aria Android Development] dandrumheller:
Have you tried a battery stats wipe? I tend to see significant improvement when doing this after flashing a new rom. Takes 4 to 5 days/charge cycles to see the change.
[HTC Aria Android Development] boxcar8028:
yeah, thanks, in the past I have always had good battery life, something has changed and I don't know what it is. I'll try flashing my battery stats hopefully it will help.

okay, going to flash n146 and uninstalled beautiful widgets and later after a full charge I'll flash my bat sats. its going to be interesting to see how it goes tonight. with fingers cross:)
[HTC Aria Android Development] dandrumheller:
Just a quick "warning" on wiping battery stats. My experience has been that the first couple days/charge cycles after a wipe the battery life is hideous, the 3rd and 4th days is pretty good, then very good after that. I don't know if this is the norm, just my device, or my set of applications. Don't give up on it if your first day of battery life sucks. My process is: flash new rom at as close to 100% battery as feasible. Then charge to full with power off. re-boot into recovery and wipe battery stats. power phone on, let drain to zero battery with no charging. re-charge, uninterrupted, to full while off. then use as normal...
[HTC Aria Android Development] drumist:
There's really no reason to wipe your battery stats between ROMs, or really ever unless you are experiencing very obvious problems. You are just making the battery reading temporarily less accurate until the phone is able to relearn the behavior of your battery. Any observed improvement in battery life is a combination of the battery meter not being fully adjusted yet and confirmation bias.
[HTC Aria Android Development] boxcar8028:
well, after a full charge and a re-flash of my battery stats my aria seems to be doing a little bit better. on previous nights my battery drain was about 3.5% per hour. now after 7hrs my battery drained went from 86 to 70% thats about 2% per hour. hopefully this will improve as the battery stats settle down.

I was thinking of using a battery manager to see if I can get more life from my battery. I was thinking of using "battery doctor" or "juice defender" has anyone try either of them? or can anyone recommend a good battery manager app. thxs. :)

[HTC Aria Android Development] DanGeorges:
Why not keep your phone plugged in (either on or off) at night?

Or was this to just check non-activity battery drain?

Unless I'm expecting a call during the night, my phone is off and charging (unless it had a full charge already).
[HTC Aria Android Development] Darius_bd:
.

It's a healthy thing to charge you phone at night,s every night. Doesnt have to be off though, and since it charges pretty fast...

One thing, on the battery info that shows what apps squeeze out more juice, I always see that the screen is the one to blame. It's like 80% even when I keep it at 30% of brightness at most, and when I know most of the juice is out because of having EDGE + WiFi Hotspot on. It's some kind of bug? Surely the screen cant consume that much and compared to an Aria with Sense, the screen is like just 30% to 40%...
[HTC Aria Android Development] drumist:
My understanding is that the Sense ROMs are bugged, and that Cyanogenmod is reporting the screen battery use accurately. The screen (backlight specifically) is a huge battery hog.
[HTC Aria Android Development] DanGeorges:
I have Sense loaded right now, and without WiFi running, Display is 66%, Cell Standby is 34%

When I add Wifi, I get this:

Display: 52%

Cell Standby: 32%

Wi-Fi: 16%

As I let the phone just sit there, Wi-Fi takes up more battery drain (started at 15, then crept up to 19%).

After about 4 minutes post-boot:

Display: 51%

Cell Standby: 30%

Wi-Fi: 19%

It continued to creep up. At 14 minutes post-boot:

Display: 31%

Cell Standby: 29%

Wi-Fi: 27%

Phone idle: 13%

Conclusion:

In the ROM I'm using, Wi-Fi is definitely more power-hungry than the screen.
[HTC Aria Android Development] boxcar8028:
for the past few nights I have been trying to track down why out of the blue, during deep sleep, my aria has been suffering from severe battery drain. the drain rate has been around 3.5 - 2% per hour.

something interesting happen last night. I thought to try turning off wifi and background data. the battery was at 64% and 7 hours later its at 61% that's less than .5% per hour. that's about the same battery drain as my nook color running cm7. both devices are running the latest cm7 nightly. on both, the settings and apps are about the same. but I did noticed that on my nook I'm not getting yahoo email notifications as fast and often as my aria. can it be my yahoo app on my aria is constantly scanning for new emails? but its odd, in battery usage the app does not show up. either its my wifi not going to sleep when the screen is off or its some app constantly trying to sync. I'll try clearing cache and data with the yahoo app and see if this helps. I'll report back.
[HTC Aria Android Development] DroidRunner:
It's a smartphone. It's always syncing data, transmitting data, looking for signal. Being kinda anal about the battery life I think.
[HTC Aria Android Development] boxcar8028:
personally, I don't think a battery discharge from 3.5 to .5 per hour is not anal. it's rather significant...
[HTC Aria Android Development] jlayton15:
The more apps data wifi and everything you have the more it will drain your battery could Start to randomly drain faster because its just getting older its going to die man mine dose the same this I used to feel the same way but that's why I have a charger so I can have my screen full brightness and data running loose haha just keep a charger close

Well.... I've been running ladios' rc4 dealio for the ages and finally said I'm waaayyyy to bored. So I did a clean, factory reset and then installed n148 with drownings 8.9.1. Three hours later (redoing apps/settings/s2e) its been running buttery smooth. I like the new features and gps works as quick as it was what I came from. I'm very impressed. Good work devs.
[HTC Aria Android Development] CallMeAria:
A couple of questions though:

1. Are these statistics taken with the display off? Or with normal useage?

2. Is Wifi set to never sleep?

3. How stong is the cell signal where you live?

The thing I find most interesting about those numbers is how the cell standby never drops despite having wifi on. One would think having wifi on would decrease the amount of battery the cell radio uses. Of course I guess if you live in an area with a great signal then the cell radio wouldnt use as much battery as living in an area with poor reception, in which case wifi would probably definitely be a battery saver. I think Ill try testing this with data actually switched off and wifi on vs leaving data on and turning on wifi and see if there is a drop in cell radio useage. Ive always just assumed, through word of mouth, that wifi uses less battery than data. But that might be more of a situational statement...
[HTC Aria Android Development] DanGeorges:
Answers:

1. Display on - no use except to let the phone sit there.

2. Yes - Wi-Fi set to never sleep

3. 4 bars (max, I believe - too small to see with the naked eye - at least it's hard for me to tell how many bars).
