Do the gapps from the nightlies differ from the ones from the previews?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] TrueBlue_Drew:
Havent ever ran the actual CM7 builds but I just DL #5 so I will flash it and run it for a bit and let you know.

I like nexus_S build. Has been running great for me. I been using LP so I dont know about ADW version but I'm sure its pretty much the same.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] contractcooker:
So if I do a nandroid restore do I have to wipe anything first or does the restore automatically do that?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] macheteZen:
I had success with these settings although my data and sms/mms had worked fine prior to adjustment. The default settings were the same except, Password: had four unknown characters (*) and, Server: had one unknown (*).

Build #19

nightly 19 is out for every other phone CM supports but ours lol

http://mirror.teamdouche.net/

17 has been running good for me, gonna flash 18 and wait for 19
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Christopher3712:
I just logged in and hadn't checked, but it's possible there weren't any commits that were applicable to our phones.

or maybe they're just late :)
[myTouch 4G Android Development] gbzbar:
19 has actually been out for a day already, it's not from last night. Last night there were no nightlies. When a nightly doesn't come up for a particular phone, it's most likely that there was a particular commit that won't allow the nightly on that particular phone to compile correctly, and there just won't be one that night.

When a nightly doesn't come up for all the phones, then either the previously mentioned issue happened, or someone just stopped the nightlies from compiling that night.

But the nightlies come out automatically, without any human intervention, so even if there are no commits for our particular phone, we will still get a nightly (and do very often. It's actually interesting to see people comparing battery life and other things between 2 nightlies that either have no commits at all, or just no commits for our phone. So much of this is the placebo effect at work).

This is all my understanding of the nightly system... if I got something wrong, then someone please feel free to chime in with a correction.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] lanternslight456:
Where did you learn this and how can you check what's changed?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] altroy2:
Two simple questions

1. Can you go back to the cm7 nightlies without rooting again if you flash back to stock sense? (Using CW 3.0.0.6 ofcourse)

2. Where would the stock rom be located? Online/ sd card? I did many backups of the sd card from the beginning.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Phateless:
1. Yes you can flash back to stock sense if you have a nandroid. Going back to the nightlies is as easy as nandroiding back or wiping and flashing again.

If you restore to stock via pd15img.zip then you'll need to reroot.

2. If you never made a nandroid backup it won't be on your sdcard.

3. There's a stock nandroid restore posted here in the development section.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] altroy2:
Thanks fot the quick answer. I just want to be able to use the fast wifi internet on my laptop as before when I need it at a public place. I need that feature about 3 times a month so it would be nice to be able to switch roms quickly for it.

I got a nandb. somewhere.

The stock rom ur talking about on here is clean right? No malware etc.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Phateless:
Everyone else here trusts it. I made my own when I first rooted. ;)

1. Restore to stock.

2. Reboot to recovery.

3. Wipe data/factory reset.

4. Without rebooting immediately create a nandroid backup.

Voila, you have your own stock restore!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] altroy2:
Thanks again. Love the freedom of android. Ps.if u know a free app tht i could try for this feature on cm7. Ud save me even more time lol. Jk i dont wanna be greedy. :))
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Phateless:
You mean WiFi tether? It's built-in.

Ok this is what happens when you're going nuts in med school. Lol thx i will try it out an see if i get decent speeds.

[myTouch 4G Android Development] Phateless:
Lol good luck.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] gbzbar:
I learned it from (mostly) reading what TeamDouche members have written about how the system works, and also from observing how the buildbot built nightlies before they took down the ability to watch the progress.

Usually, you can check what has changed by going to the cmsrc twitter account, but it hasn't been working for the last few days. You can also try http://r.cyanogenmod.com , however not all the commits will show up here, as this is mostly for review of code to make sure things operate well before they are merged into the ROM.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] SwornPacifist:
Does anyone know how I would go about reporting this bug? I know there is a Cyanogenmod bug tracker, but I would like to know the best way to submit the bug for fixes
[myTouch 4G Android Development] UntamedDeviance:
i could be wrong, but im pretty sure they dont do bug reports for nightlies
[myTouch 4G Android Development] UntamedDeviance:
Ok, I decided to do a clean flash of RC2, and now everything is working just as it should, with the exception of my home key, its not working at all... anyone know what may be causing that?

Edit: Tried flashing nb 18 , and still didnt fix the home key issue, but everything else is good

EDIT: After about the 5th time flashing and reflashing and fresh wiping, and everything, everything that I have tried thus far is working on my phone.. On RC2, and I think I am going to stay there until a stable comes out :P Or at least another RC ;)
[myTouch 4G Android Development] tmagritte:
I've found that the volume keys don't work consistently during a call when the phone is next to my face (proximity detector turns screen off). If pulled away and the screen comes on the volume keys work normally. The behaviour seems to have changes somewhat over the last few builds, where at one point it wouldn't work it all. Now it sometimes works correctly, but other times the keys don't respond at all. However, this changes during the course of a single phone call: at one point the keys don't do anything, at another they respond normally.

Anyone else experiencing this or know if this is something being corrected? Also, any possibility of raising the max earpiece volume?

Thanks.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] SwornPacifist:
It was working in RC1 and broken in RC2, do they take bug reports for RC builds?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] gbzbar:
You can submit the bug on the bug tracker, but you would need a LOGcat of the problem, so make sure you know how to get that. Also, make sure you search the open bugs so you don't submit something that has already been submitted. Lastly, before you submit anything, you might want to verify that someone else is actually getting the problem you are, since a huge majority of the issues that people have and post about on these boards are isolated to their phones and just a quirk of their installation.

Having said that, I don't have this issue. I'm not sure how many "seconds" you would have to wait for the problem to crop up, but for the last five minutes I've been playing music, skipping, stopping, and starting with the buttons and I've had no issues. When you say that it was broken in RC2 and now in Nightly 18, have you tried a wipe? That would be the most effective (albeit annoying) troubleshooting step you could try to eliminate the problem.

If you still need to submit a bug report, you can go here:

http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/list

Good Luck.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] joeyklatzko:
I'm pretty sure this is a known bug, does anybody else's YouTube freeze when you lock the screen during a video? I'm using the stock kernel and default CPU settings.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] SwornPacifist:
Thanks, I am planning a full wipe before I submit anything. Can you test something for me? With the screen off, pause the music using the camera button, let the phone sit for 30 seconds, then use the camera button to restart it? Just testing it now, I found that if it sits paused for more than 3 seconds (I used a clock), then it will be unable to restart.

I'll try some other tests, reinstalling apps, etc.

WiFi Calling

I rarely use WiFi calling, maybe once or twice a month. But reading through the posts about WiFi calling a few pages back, I decided to see if I can get it to work on my phone.

I've been able to get the WiFi calling app to open up, but it seems to get stuck reading the SIM (screenshot attached). I was wondering if anybody can point me in the right direction. Here's what I've done:

Fully wiped the phone. Formatted boot, system, data and cache.

Cleared Dalvik cache and battery stats.

Installed CM7 NB18.

Installed Google Apps (03/07/2011 version)

Booted up.

Waited for ~10 minutes at the "Touch the Android" screen for system to settle, then rebooted without setting anything up.

After reboot, I set up accounts, WiFi, etc.

Pulled the APK from /system/app of CM7 NB18 zip file.

Pulled libkineto.so from /system/lib of CM7 NB18 zip file.

Pulled libganril.so from /system/lib of CM7 NB18 zip file.

Pulled librilswitch.so from /system/lib of CM7 NB18 zip file.

Pushed all four files to the phone: the APK to /system/app, and the libraries to /system/lib.

Turned WiFi on.

With WiFi on, fixed permissions through ROM Manager and again through terminal emulator (su + fix_permissions).

Rebooted.

Got pop up about WiFi calling when CM7 booted. Hit "Skip."

App comes up, gets stuck at "Reading SIM" as seen in the screenshot.

I've done multiple permission fixes, and also tried the APN setting posted here. Neither have helped. I also tried this which didn't help.

Any help is appreciated. If I can get it to work, I'll write something up to be added to the FAQ section.

Screenshot here.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] gbzbar:
Yeah, I can confirm what you are talking about. That's probably something you can report. Just get a logcat when you do.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] SwornPacifist:
Thanks for helping me test it
[myTouch 4G Android Development] camalus:
To be honest I am not sure on that one. I called T-Mobile and got the apn settings that I posted... but I have never had an issue with it saying reading sim and being stuck there.

I wish I could be more help on it. You may want to give T-Mobile a call quick and see if they have any suggestions.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] SwornPacifist:
I created my logcat and was looking for open bugs and found it's reported and open:

http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmo...on Model Network Owner Summary Stars Priority

Hopefully it get fixed soon!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] smonme:
Using faux latest kernel wifi calling works just fine for me, didn't have to do any apn settings either, could your problems be isolated to your wifi, like if possible if you had another mytouch or T-Mobile android phone you could see if it works .. I dunno I have many phones

Mytouch 4g / CM7 / Faux Kernel / Honey Bread Theme
[myTouch 4G Android Development] hammondnav:
I actually did all of this on a 2nd MT4G. Not messing with my regular phone. :D

I'll revert my test unit back to stock and see if it decides to work. I'm also interested in comparing the two build.props and see if there are any paths that need to be set.

Also, I tested on a WiFi network that I had used previously for WiFi calling. I don't believe this to be a network issue.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] TheBiles:
So, strangest thing today when doing a fresh wipe:

I restored all of my apps with Titanium just like normal, but none of my Market links are showing up despite running the Market doctor. I've tried wiping the cache of the Market (I can't wipe the data) and rebooting, but they're still not linked. Any idea how to fix this?

Blah, it, like so many other issues, fixed itself. <_<
[myTouch 4G Android Development] XfooYen:
three things might work. First, download something arbitrary from the market. That sometimes fixes it. Second, in titanium on the first screen hit the backup/restore tab. Long press the app in question and select attach to market (forced). Do this for each app that is missing from the market. If that doesn't work, try locating the market app in settings/applications/manage applications, select it and uninstall updates (if any). Hope one of these clears things up. I've had the same problem. Titanium backups are touchy.

[myTouch 4G Android Development] UntamedDeviance:
With all of the issues I have been having thus far with all the builds of CM, there has been one thing that I didn't do the most recent time (That everything has worked correctly) and that has been restore apps with Titanium... Maybe I was just doing it wrong, but I think for the time being, I am going to stay away from Titanium... Haha
[myTouch 4G Android Development] tjizzle:
The only time Titanium has screwed my phone was when i restored SYSTEM. Its all good when i only restore apps. Messing with system is a no go.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] gaww:
This has been covered before, but in all cases - NEVER restore system settings with Titanium. Only data and do that selectively.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] TheBiles:
Like I said, it fixed itself, so Titanium obviously worked. For some reason the update.zip it created and signed didn't work when flashing through ClockworkMod, though. Maybe it's because I had it to install as a system app, but I had to eventually download it from the Market.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Part Four:
What's with all of the permissions fixing you guys keep doing? Why? Are you really having fc or other app problems with each flash? I've never fixed permissions nor had reason to. Is there something about this that I'm missing, or are you all just happy to waste time?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] ericinmn999:
same here. there are times when I think it's fixed but then it stops working again. I have to give the phone a "shakey" and then hit the volume quickly.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Phateless:
It makes people feel better to think that they're being thorough. Just like changing your oil every 3k instead of 5k, 7k, or even 10k as the Honda Civic owner's manual states.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] tmagritte:
I've found moving the phone away from my face so the screen turns back on will temporarily fix the issue (the volume seems to change even if you do it after putting the phone back next to your face, but sometimes only in one direction).

This is the most annoying thing about CM7 for me. I wanted to create a bug report to make sure the developers are aware of this issue but I don't quite understand how to create the log for this, especially as it's not entirely reproducible. I was experimenting using just my finger over the proximity sensor to try and replicate it but then it was working fine...

Maybe if you can figure out how to do a log we can file a report....

[myTouch 4G Android Development] coupetastic-droid:

[myTouch 4G Android Development] mackster248:
Everyone is different. And everyone do not get the same results.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] coupetastic-droid:
Wifi is awesome in this build. Previous builds wifi used to jump from 3 to 4 bars. But now its a strong steady full 4 bars.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] joeyklatzko:
Yeah but do they really know what these settings do? Correct me if I'm wrong but "Fix Permissions" is supposed to correct Read/Write/Execute permissions? How often are these permissions being changed that they need to be defaulted to their original settings? I think people see the word "Fix" and think it will iron out the bugs for them...
[myTouch 4G Android Development] mackster248:
It's pretty much become a rule of thumb, because since day one almost everyone including rom developers suggest to run it every time something goes wrong. So can't really blame people for running it fluently.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] ziggy34:
WiFi same as before here on #21, really good with in 12 feet of the router, any farther and it drops off quickly.

Going to install Faux123's LV kernel and see if that helps.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] option94:
Permissions are set during the flash. Fixing permissions is almost always a waste of time. Almost. Very rarely will it actually change anything for the better, unless the dev made a mistake and didn't set them right in the updater-script.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] esincho:
negative. Who says that? IDK where all this fix permissions started but it won't fix problems must ppl have
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Phateless:
Speaking of fixing permissions what would be the adb or terminal command to adjust permissions on several files at once after copying a file to system/app via root explorer? Long pressing and adjusting them one at a time takes a while.

Tried fix permissions in recovery and didn't help.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] hammondnav:
It's something people do when they've already tried everything else. It takes a minute, and certainly doesn't hurt anything. If you can't get something that should be working to work, then you try a permission fix just in case.

And no, nobody thinks it automatically fixes bugs.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] option94:
su

chmod 644 filename

lots of files,

su

chmod 644 /system/* would do everything in system

and 644 isn't necessarily the right permission set, i depends on the files.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] option94:
It doesn't fix much, but it will never cause any issues, so its a good thing to try if all else fails.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] XfooYen:
How is the latest nightly behaving?

Sent from my HTC Glacier
[myTouch 4G Android Development] hammondnav:
Exactly. Since I'm pushing an app and a few libraries, I figured it might help. It didn't...

I'm still working on getting WiFi Calling to work, and I'm really interested in writing up a guide so others don't have to spend a ton of time figuring it out. Any helps is still much appreciated. Could discuss it over PMs as well.

EDIT: I figured it out. Working on a complete, easy-to-read guide. Will post soon.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] option94:
What exactly are you trying to fix and write a guide for?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] hammondnav:
I was trying to get WiFi calling to work on CM7. Couldn't find any complete guides, just bits and pieces of information here and there. Would like to write up a complete step-by-step set of instructions. If it's been done before let me know. I didn't find an existing guide.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] cronuslsd:
I've been running cm7 for months on multiple builds. Most recently 18 and i have never had any wifi calling issues
[myTouch 4G Android Development] hammondnav:
That's strange... I've never had WiFi calling automatically show up on any build. Ever. And I've been flashing CM7 since alphas. Am I missing something?

I ended up reverting a phone back to stock. Then I checked out build.prop to see what libraries are needed for the WiFi calling app to work properly. Pushing those files to the correct locations and fixing permissions got WC up and running on NB21.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] KenpoAP:
Im on 21, flash at work, use wifi calling all day no issues. What are you talking about?

From my CM7 urban themed Glacier
[myTouch 4G Android Development] option94:
Its been on every build that i've ever flashed.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] macheteZen:
I would venture to say the same, except maybe some of gridlock's earliest which required you to install from apk. Strange. Even with a full wipe install you still aren't seeing it?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] hammondnav:
Hmmm... I'm not entirely sure what's happening. Literally no build that I've installed has had WiFi Calling. And again, I've crack flashed pretty much every single build since alphas.

So I went ahead and wiped a MT4G squeaky clean and flashed NB21. Lo and behold, no WiFi Calling shows up. A library that I believe is needed for WiFi calling, libkineto, is also missing from /system/lib. I've included screenshots. I swear I didn't remove anything!

What am I missing?

App drawer screenshot here. No WiFi Calling app icon.

/system/app folder screenshot here. MS-HTCVISION-KNT20-02.apk is not even there.

/system/lib folder screenshot here. libkineto.so is missing as you can see.

Again, these screenshots are from a completely clean flash and I didn't remove anything whatsoever.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] joeyklatzko:
Weird. I rely heavily on WiFi Calling at home, I'm running build 18 using WiFi Calling with no problems.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Phateless:
That's bizarre... Just as an experiment do you have a blank sdcard you could use? Maybe there's something on there that's confusing one of the scripts???

Are you basic permaroot s-off or did you run gfree?

Maybe do a full wipe again and keep it connected to the computer with a logcat running while you flash. Maybe you'll see something. You have opened the zip files before flashing to verify that wifi calling is in there right?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] ziggy34:
Can try someone try something for me. Use the Power Control Widget and enable the Mobile Data function. Can you turn Mobile Data On and Off with #21? It has worked in all previous versions, but in #21, it will not turn Mobile Data on and off.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Phateless:
My home screen power control widget has always been 50/50 turning gps on/off, but the status bar widget has always worked fine. It's been this way ever since Gridlock's builds.

I'm on Sense now so I'd have to nandroid back to test for you and I have to leave in a bit.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] ziggy34:
Ok, did some testing, It seems it's working, just that the status in not changing in the Power Control Widget.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] ziggy34:
It's fine, don't worry about all that. I have not had any problem with the Power Control widget until this build.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] coupetastic-droid:
My wifi calling just does not want to connect, it has not want to connect ever since I flashed cm and any build after. It gives a "j0012.0 busy network" message every time I try to enable it.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] ziggy34:
I've had problems connecting some times after flashing a new build. I go in to Settings / Applications / Manage Applications

Select All and then find WiFi Calling and clear data.

Then reboot in to Recovery and clear Cache and Delvik Cache and reboot. Try wifi calling. It has worked for me each time.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] ziggy34:
Ok, it's working now, My ADW EX was screwed up, I uninstalled and reinstalled ADW EX Launcher and it's working fine now.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] coupetastic-droid:
Tried this already. I do it everytime I flash new build. Still nothing. This is actually the one and only problem I've had with every build.
