The Nightlies have been very good. I was running 32 without issue with Ladios' Kernel and the latest radio posted. I skipped the last four nightlies because nothing major has been changed. I've been on Ladios' ROM for a few days also without issue. Not too sure about the battery life. It might be slightly worse, but I think that is due to the new radio or the fact that I haven't reset the battery yet. Although I did get 15 or 16 hours the other day. GPS has worked like a charm and extremely accurate. Everything seems to be running fine.
[HTC Aria Android Development] jlayton15:
I wish I could learn how to do all this stuff and make roms and help develop and make this phone better
[HTC Aria Android Development] ARMarlowe:
battery has been worse with the ladios rom on my phone (2 days testing), probably switching back to rc4 or the nightlies...
[HTC Aria Android Development] drumist:
They are "screwy" because it is a brand new library that was written specifically to address the issue that many people have had where they have to do the whole flashing CM6 dance to get GPS to work in CM7. I don't mean to single you out (many people keep bringing it up), but I wish people would stop complaining about the new GPS library already. It isn't going to change anything. Obviously it will either be updated to correct the navigation problems or reverted back to the old library before a stable release. The constant whining about this is just demoralizing to the very people who are trying to fix the issue.
[HTC Aria Android Development] drumist:
I definitely agree with this. I wouldn't be surprised if 90% of the problems people complain about could be solved by doing a PROPER clean install (including wiping the system partition). I also assume there is a large group of people who wipe battery stats every time they flash a ROM, which is a bad idea.
[HTC Aria Android Development] tommyguns818:
Agreed....I've had great progress with these nightlys and rc's. But then sometimes you've got some hickups with the aria and you do a clean wipe.....everything! It has worked for me. Just do your initial backups. And hold your breath. Right now I'm running ladios' test rc4 kang rom with updated radio and s2e. Best rom I've seen in in a while. 20hrs of life, GPS and wifi steady as a rock. Good gob. Flashing wife's aria from stable cm6 to this puppy tomorrow morning. Sweet.
[HTC Aria Android Development] kabell4:
Just flashed the camera and it seems very nice. Responsive and quick.

Thanks...
[HTC Aria Android Development] lilhaiti:
Question for Ladios.

What ever happened to the updated Aria libraries that were in one of your test ROM's a few weeks ago? Where those libraries merged with CM7? Are they in your latest test ROM?

The reason I ask is that that ROM seemed to have the greatest battery life that I've seen in some time. This latest test ROM has pretty descent battery life (at least I've seen so far) but that one seemed to be a bit better. It also seemed a bit smoother...although this one is pretty smooth as well. Just wondering.
[HTC Aria Android Development] ladios:
I updated the kernel from htc's froyo source, that's all. The changes of kernel source have been submitted to cm gerrit, but no one approved those changes yet. I guess it's because I didn't do it decently, as they were all entitled like "update from htc's liberty froyo source", and no description on what's changed, or what's improved, and I'm just a nobody. So I don't know when they will really look into it. Meanwhile, the maintainers who are the only ones that are allowed to update the device's prebuilt kernel, won't submit a new one until those changes are merged into msm7227 kernel repository.

As for my test rom, it's nothing more than a nightly plus updated kernel, minus new gps libraries. It would be the same if you flash the latest nightly, updated kernel, and the old gps libraries.
[HTC Aria Android Development] lilhaiti:
Gotcha...well until it's all merged...I will continue to flash everything in everytime...gives me something to do.

Thanks for you hard work...if CM doesn't appreciate your work, WE definitely do!!!

I had the same thing happen to me. I found that if you let your phone sit for a few minutes when it happens beautiful widgets will come up eventually. After that initial wait I haven't had any issues. Just ignore the force close message and let it sit.

just wondering if theres going to be a honeycomb 3.0 rom for aria would be lovely if there was i would donate for that one lol

Yep. I'm staying with my ladios' rc4 and kernal. Everything has been working great. Stable cm7 still has the GPS problems were I'm looking northeast.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Jimmeh83:
I was using nightly #36 with Ladios' kernel and my battery life was pretty terrible. Trying out the 7.0.0 release now with the standard kernel for a comparison.

I was wondering if there was something that can be done similar to what hearing aid does in the Sense Roms, my phones ear piece speaker(not earbud, but the one at the top of the phone) is very soft. To the point that I cannot hear a conversation at all.

[HTC Aria Android Development] tribestros:
It's so hard to distinguish who has worse fanboys...Android or Apple? Obviously from what I've seen on XDA the iPhone people are on an equal level with most of the Android people.
[HTC Aria Android Development] bkmo:
Funny thing is I am running the same kernel. :) You gotta love the I downloaded from somewhere kernel for battery life.
[HTC Aria Android Development] BuckMulligan:
Uh, oh. Looks like we're about to go full-tilt bozo.
[HTC Aria Android Development] CallMeAria:
Running nightly 39 with ladios kernel and everything is running great. Super smooth. Nav is still messed up so the reverted GPS libs are still needed.

Edit: count me as one of the cm7 android fanboys. No shame in my game.

My battery life was horrible with Ladio's kernel. Running 7.0.0 default now and it's infinitely better, a whole working day uses about 20% battery.
[HTC Aria Android Development] :
Nightly 40?

Tried flashing nightly 40 but it wouldn't take. Tried like 5 times, no go.

Status 7 installation aborted. WRITE_RAW_IMAGE to /tmp/boot.img error.

Nightly 39 took first try. No idea. Just fyi.
[HTC Aria Android Development] juggalofr33k:
I agree. I had the exact problem with 40.
[HTC Aria Android Development] mtnlion:
Same here
[HTC Aria Android Development] muskratt:
same here.. would it work to replace the boot image with the one from 39?
[HTC Aria Android Development] DroidRunner:
or stick with 39 all together. Looks like no significant changes were made to 40
[HTC Aria Android Development] tacitapproval:
Not true:

http://cm-nightlies.appspot.com/?device=liberty
[HTC Aria Android Development] DroidRunner:
Gps not fixed, that would be a significant fix
[HTC Aria Android Development] CallMeAria:
What I did was take the system folder from 40 and put it in place of 39's system folder keeping 39's boot.img and META-INF. Rezipped and flashed. Everything working great except of course for the nav issue.

I just did what callmearia mentioned in last post works like a charm, thank you. Words fail me on update, well awsome comes to mind. :D
[HTC Aria Android Development] loursonbrun:
Hi everyone,

for the sake of comparing can you guys let me know how much time does your battery give you, in average of hours, if you use your phone either surfing the net or chatting without interruptions (- either WiFi and/or phone network -) .

I just want to know if my battery is performing OK according to others's or if there is room for improvement. In my case 20 mins of surfing the net costs me around 40% of my battery, or if I use OfficeTalk non-stop it drains my battery in 1 hour and a half starting at a 95% charge.

Thank you all.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Javi97100:
I get about 6 hours and half, with mobile data always on, wifi on when I'm at home, atleast an hour of Facebook, 15 minutes of browsers, and phone calls no longer than 5 minutes ,and on 600 when screen is On aand 245 when off
[HTC Aria Android Development] seboj:
Battery life is going to be dependent on things like WiFi / bluetooth / network status, display brightness, over/underclocking, how often things like Facebook / Twitter / Email are looking for updates, the physical condition of that particular person's battery..

It's not easy to get a meaningful apples-to-apples comparison with other people.
[HTC Aria Android Development] tribestros:
Sounds like how my battery was. I upgraded to the CM7 Final and things have been 100% better. It's all dependent on the Kernel you run.

just noticed it was out ;) haven't tried it yet
[HTC Aria Android Development] mtnlion:
41 wont flash for me. different error than i got on 40.
[HTC Aria Android Development] CallMeAria:
Yup. Flashed just fine for me. Again, everythings working great except for the orientation problem with navigation. There werent really any changes at all between 40 and 41 though except 41 will flash :rolleyes:
[HTC Aria Android Development] mtnlion:
Out of curiosity which cwm are you using?

edit:bad download. redownloaded flashed fine.
[HTC Aria Android Development] juggalofr33k:

[HTC Aria Android Development] kabell4:
Switch to CM 7.0.0 stable. Can get fix on GPS, but won't lock. I'll leave GPS Status on to see what happens later. Odd that I get a fix on 8 sats without a lock. I guess I could try the old libs. Seems to run pretty smooth for what I do though.
[HTC Aria Android Development] tribestros:
CM7 Stable has the orientation problem and the old libraries being flashed makes the CPU stick at 100% screwing your battery up.
[HTC Aria Android Development] mikelebz:
I'm using the gps lib revert and my cpu is acting just fine. Perhaps it is the revert zip you are using.
[HTC Aria Android Development] drowningchild:
on which version?
[HTC Aria Android Development] mikelebz:
39 I believe
[HTC Aria Android Development] CallMeAria:
Well I did a little experimentation with the GPS libs and found a little info that may or may not be useful.

There is a lib called libgps.so that is found in /system/lib/ on cm7 versions prior to the new libs being added. When this file is added back into that folder on the newer nightlies two things happen:

1) the CPU sticks at 100%.

2) the orientation problem in navigation is corrected.

The interesting thing is that this is not one of the libs that was changed. It was completely removed from cm7. The lib that was updated is /system/lib/hw/gps.liberty.so. However, this new lib seems to have no affect on the CPU or nav issues. It didn't matter if I used the new lib or the old one, if I added libgps.so to the rom the CPU maxed and nav was fixed. Removed it with both the new and old lib and the CPU went back to normal and nav was again messed up.

Based on that info, what could be causing /system/lib/libgps.so to create the cpu issue? And was this the reason it was removed in the first place?

Sent from my cm7 Aria.
[HTC Aria Android Development] tribestros:
Any new leads on getting this CM7 GPS/CPU thing fixed? I'm happy enough on Lib 2.2.2, I just like how light CM7 is.
[HTC Aria Android Development] CallMeAria:
The only way I was able to get the cpu to behave normally was to use the the new gps.liberty.so located in /system/lib/hw. But thats where the navigation problem lies, is in that lib. I was able to replace every other gps related lib with no negative behaviour. But If I put the old gps.liberty.so in its place then the cpu cycles to 100%. I even tried completely replacing the /system/lib folder with one from nightly 32 and it would still sit at 100%. So Im still at a dead end trying to figure out what's causing the incompatibility with the old libs in a newer roms. Its gonna take someone with a little more understanding of the inner workings here...or someone to just stumble upon a fix...:rolleyes:
[HTC Aria Android Development] drowningchild:
i tried the same thing :(

if i had 64bit cpu i'd build from source with old drivers :(
[HTC Aria Android Development] tribestros:
Guess I'll keep my Nandroid of CM7 as a Nandroid, then. :P
[HTC Aria Android Development] Moh_Jay:
Wifi will be better in build 42 because they found the source of internet going on and off. As for GPS, there hasn't been any word.

This was bound to happen though. I am not shocked or upset. It is about time when people are due for an upgrade, and that is what the devs did. I am going to upgrade once I am able to. Can't wait to try out miui. Looking towards the inspire. Unfortunately I have a little over 6 months :(

Running nightly 41 at the moment, am I the only one having a problem with the Tapatalk pro app? I don't even see it in the market anymore.. I haven't had a problem with any apps until rc4.. flashing to nightly 41 cleared all my other issues up except for this one.

no problems here with the Tapatalk app on nightly 41. If you cant find it in the market try appbrain (available free in the market) or you can try putting your phone into airplane mode and just turning wifi back on and try searching the market again.

Tried that.. I've got as far as getting the app open, nothing after that.. The XDA app works fine, just Tapatalk. Guess it's not a nightly issue then

[HTC Aria Android Development] cHarley04:
N42 - Drowning's latest kernel, plus Ladios' GPS fix, and so far everything is super smooth and looking real good.

The only possible problem I'm seeing is an issue with the GPS icon on the status bar. After the first boot of the phone under 42 with the Ladios gps fix, testing the GPS went fine, but when I turned off GPS, the GPS icon remained on the status bar, but everything said GPS was off. I rebooted the phone and the GPS is working fine, but now I don't get the GPS status icon on the status bar at all, whether GPS is ON or not. This may just be an issue with my install though.
[HTC Aria Android Development] lilhaiti:
Just installed n42 with Drowning 7 and ladios GPS fix. So far so great...GPS is working like it should, everything is smooth, and the CPU is not redlining all the time.

Not seeing the problem with the GPS icon, try a restart.
[HTC Aria Android Development] brivette007:
Just flashed 42 last night, coming from CM7.0.0 stable (April 10). Everything seems good, actually a little smoother. The only problem is that the phone sticks for a few seconds after the unlock screen, before going to the homescreen. Any idea what's going one there?

Every build is counted in order, regardless of whether it gets released or not. So basically, 43-53 were no-go's/failed builds.

Maybe its a placebo affect, but it feels smoother to me. I guess you could say it feels more refined (to me). But again, it may or not be the kernel. But I like to think it is ;)
