Anyone else have the issue of Gmail turning off the sync function at random? I always have to go back in the settings and turn it back on for some reason...
[HTC Aria Android Development] tomtommy306:
RC2 will be released soon with a ton of fixes.

Looks promising.
[HTC Aria Android Development] brivette007:
Yeah the next release has a shopping list of a changelog.

About to flash 257 now, with the htc stock gps.
[HTC Aria Android Development] ladios:
That should be 7.2 RC0
[HTC Aria Android Development] DanGeorges:
Just curious- why wouldn't the developers here include the stock GPS stuff in the latest nightly builds? It seems like the right thing to do, but again I'm not a developer, so I'm guessing there's a good reason to exclude them.

Same goes for not being able to read from the SIM card...
[HTC Aria Android Development] tomtommy306:
OOps sorry guys yup 7.2
[HTC Aria Android Development] ladios:
The GPS library was replaced for CM7.0 when the stock one stopped functioning for some people, including the maintainer. Reverting that change is easy. The hard part is that the patch committer has to fight for an approval from the maintainer...

What's wrong with SIM card? The patch committer doesn't aware of that.
[HTC Aria Android Development] DanGeorges:
In CM7, the SIM card isn't recognized. In other words, reading the SIM card won't work. If I try to import SIM contacts, I get the message "No contacts on your SIM card," even though I know there are contacts stored there.
[HTC Aria Android Development] jlayton15:
Its always been a problem in cmX.X its not major or bad just copy from sim to SD then SD to phone or use Google
[HTC Aria Android Development] mbudden:
Yeah, I believe I had this problem once. I just ended up uploading my contacts to Google and didn't have a problem.

GPS has never been an issue for me. Locks on pretty quick.
[HTC Aria Android Development] hi2u2:
Yeah reverting to older libs is easy enough; I just put the old libs in each nightly zip. It just sucks that the gps commit, which was tested on one device only (supersonic), gets pushed out to the entire cm device tree.
[HTC Aria Android Development] cHarley04:
Nightly 259 looking good so far, with ladios' stock gps zip.
[HTC Aria Android Development] madsnake53:
yer i hate how the sim card says no contacts on sim when i know that there on there would like to find a way to fix this problem if there is a way please let me know?
[HTC Aria Android Development] lsusparky621:
With so many changes on the changelog on that one I was going to wait to see of any problems before flashing. Still good?
[HTC Aria Android Development] cHarley04:
Still good on 259.
[HTC Aria Android Development] tomtommy306:
259 working good here as well.
[HTC Aria Android Development] mbudden:
Someone mind posting where I can find the change log? Pardon my noobness. Trying to get into the nightlies. Just don't know where I find information about the changes in each nightly.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Theonew:
See here: http://cm-nightlies.appspot.com/?device=liberty.

http://cm-nightlies.appspot.com/?device=liberty
[HTC Aria Android Development] tommyguns818:
Can't post a link but just google HTC liberty cyanogenmod nighties changelog. That will work.

Edit: Charley beat me to it. :p
[HTC Aria Android Development] Theonew:
And I beat him to it :p:D.
[HTC Aria Android Development] mbudden:
Thanks you guys. Would thank you if I could, but it seems that there is no such feature on the old theme.
[HTC Aria Android Development] ladios:
Sorry that I have to kill your mood - Almost every recent change shown in changelog is for ICS.
[HTC Aria Android Development] kaboose01:
Yup. My Aria cant wait to indulge herself on some delicous ice cream CM9.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Theonew:
It's a quick and simple switch :D.
[HTC Aria Android Development] mbudden:
Theonew, I like the old layout. Reminds me of the old XDA days. But I was able to through tapatalk! :)

And what's wrong with some ICS goodness? I'm interested on how it will perform on the Aria.
[HTC Aria Android Development] ladios:
There's nothing wrong. My point was those changes wouldn't be included in the next few nightlies.

I'll try to build ICS for Aria. I'm not so looking forward to that, though. The system.img of emulator took me double of the time a kang rom of Aria used to complete. That could mean ICS would need double of resource to operate on a device, and thus even N1 won't get the ICS update from Google. I'm also worry about whether the current kernel would work for ICS.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Theonew:
It does really need a powerful system to build it. Here are the recommended specs:

-6GB of download.

-25GB disk space to do a single build.

-80GB disk space to build all AOSP configs at the same time.

-16GB RAM recommended, more preferred, anything less will measurably

benefit from using an SSD.

-5+ hours of CPU time for a single build, 25+ minutes of wall time, as

measured on my workstation (dual-E5620 i.e. 2x quad-core 2.4GHz HT,

with 24GB of RAM, no SSD)
[HTC Aria Android Development] kaboose01:
Is that just building your own aosp ics or cm's?

Seems like alotta muscle is needed just to pump out a ROM...
[HTC Aria Android Development] Theonew:
AOSP :eek:. Maybe for CyanogenMod too because they were having a discussion about needing to build up a workstation.
[HTC Aria Android Development] hi2u2:
Ladios,

any progress on building ics for liberty?
[HTC Aria Android Development] Noobla_Khan:
Honestly I had no hope for this. Didn't think it would be possible or worth the time. Got my eye on a Nexus S when my contract renews.

Edit: I'm hearing there is not enough space on the Aria to handle ICS.
[HTC Aria Android Development] hi2u2:
I don't think this is true, as ics builds are out for phones like the hero, droid eris, and nexus one, all of which have similar storage space (512MB) to the aria.
[HTC Aria Android Development] mbudden:
While I'm sure that it is possible in some sort of way or another. I doubt that it will be snappy and quick, even with an OC'd Aria. It seems that ICS has tons of animations here and there and I doubt that the Aria would be able to keep up.
[HTC Aria Android Development] lsusparky621:
Yeah. I fully believed that a final version of CM7 would be the stopping point for our Aria. I'm hoping the Galaxy Nexus comes to AT&T soon.
[HTC Aria Android Development] zervic:
+1 for the galaxy nexus...that'll be the good bye to my Aria
[HTC Aria Android Development] mbudden:
I think I'll be heading in the way of the SGSII, the Nexus doesn't really appeal to me. But I do believe CM7 will be the last for the Aria unforunately.
[HTC Aria Android Development] AlbinoAsian:
Been having a problem for the last few nightlies where I'm losing phone and 3g signal. This is on base kernel. I have to restart for it fix itself... sometimes twice. Anyone having issues?
[HTC Aria Android Development] Theonew:
None here. Have you tried re-installing the rom (preferably a clean install)?
[HTC Aria Android Development] AlbinoAsian:
I will probably have to resort to that
[HTC Aria Android Development] dh4645:
i love my aria and cm7, but i can upgrade soon.

i really need a phone with a better camera, bigger screen, etc...which i know is pretty much any now phone....

but what is the best at&t android phone for $100 or less that is out or will be coming out in the next month or so.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Noobla_Khan:
I'm thinking about the Nexus S from Best Buy for like $50. Should get an official ICS as well.
[HTC Aria Android Development] lsusparky621:
I have heard of $99 deals for the SGSII. Target had this a few weeks ago, so I know they're out there. I would get the SGSII over the Nexus S because it is newer and likely to be more "future-proof" if you are signing a 2 year contract.
[HTC Aria Android Development] mbudden:
The SGSII is the route I'm headed after the Aria. The Nexus doesn't really offer anything that wows me.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Javi97100:
The galaxy nexus will have way more dev support, official updates and way more things tthan the sgs2.
[HTC Aria Android Development] lsusparky621:
Well obviously that is the preferred choice of most, but I don't know if it is even coming to AT&T...well you can buy it unlocked for $750, but who's going to do that?

We were referring to the Nexus S vs. the SGSII, not the Galaxy Nexus btw.
[HTC Aria Android Development] dh4645:
ok, thanks for some suggestions.

do the newer att phones (the ones mentioned..or others) let you install 3rd party apps without rooting or using a sideloading program while hooked up to your pc?

mainly i would want my amazon app store and swype like i do now.

the other things i've installed i can live without.
[HTC Aria Android Development] kaboose01:
yes every ATT phone now allows side-loading.
[HTC Aria Android Development] strose09:
Did the nightlies break or did they just stop making them? Last one I have is 260.
[HTC Aria Android Development] dh4645:
???

seriously? thats awesome.

is there anything special you need, or does it just work like it does on the rooted aria? (just install .apks from sd card or do you need a sideloading prog on pc)

whats better, the HTC Vivid or the SGSII?
[HTC Aria Android Development] lsusparky621:
Last I heard the CM team was fixing some hardware over the weekend and they should be back up this week sometime.
[HTC Aria Android Development] drumist:
It works like every Android phone in the world that wasn't crippled by AT&T -- which is to simply install an apk file from the phone.
[HTC Aria Android Development] dh4645:
well it's good to see they finally came around to their senses
[HTC Aria Android Development] Theonew:
Based on many categories (in comparison), the SGSII is better.
[HTC Aria Android Development] drumist:
I'm surprised no one has mentioned the LG Nitro HD yet. It may not appeal to some Aria owners (who perhaps like having a smaller device), but I'd say it's the best choice on AT&T right now.
[HTC Aria Android Development] mikelebz:
That just got announced. It looks intriguing, however it comes down to the software...and if that sucks, we need som dev backing for it.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Theonew:
There have been some discussions about it, at they end up saying that it is not all that good (well the majority said/implied this). See here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1358888 and here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1365490.
[HTC Aria Android Development] mbudden:
I'm headed where the most development is.
[HTC Aria Android Development] dh4645:
i was leaning towards the samsung without really knowing any specs....since i have an htc now, just to try something different
[HTC Aria Android Development] lsusparky621:
The LG Nitro doesn't look that good to me. The SGSII will have lots of development. I think the SGSII will be the best phone in AT&T's lineup for the next 2 months.
[HTC Aria Android Development] drumist:
I'll reserve judgement on the Nitro HD for now, but it will certainly be disappointing if the battery issues are as severe as those threads suggest. If custom ROMs can fix the issues with the phone then it may still be a good buy. Time will tell I guess.

---------- Post added at 12:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:39 AM ----------

I agree that the SGSII is a solid phone, but 480x800 at that size just doesn't do it for me.
[HTC Aria Android Development] lsusparky621:
That's precisely why I'm not purchasing it.
[HTC Aria Android Development] brivette007:
Since I got my Aria in June of 2010, I'm due for a new phone this February, though I'll probably go a little longer than that. Looking forward to what new devices come out next year.

My one main deal breaker is going to be the screen size. I want something bigger than the Aria (which is pretty much everything, now) but I don't want one that is huge. 4.5" seems to be getting more common now, and that's got me a little worried. I like my brother's 4" Captivate. That's the size I'm going for.

This lack of nightlies is getting me antsy....
[HTC Aria Android Development] dh4645:
the wife and i got our arias in June 2010 as well. somehow i am eligible next week and she isnt eligible until March (3 months later).

we've always been able to upgrade at the same time. whats the deal with that?
[HTC Aria Android Development] drumist:
I'd like a 3.7-4.0 inch device with a high (300+) PPI and non-PenTile display -- something that can compete directly with the iPhone's display. Is that too much to ask? :\
[HTC Aria Android Development] Noobla_Khan:
Ok...guess I jumped the gun when I said that I didn't have hope for ICS on the Aria. I have it running on mine now and aside from a lot of things not working yet the performance seems good for it's very beginning stages.

Lesson learned...never doubt the devs on XDA. :D
[HTC Aria Android Development] dh4645:
i am eligible next week for a phone, but my wife isnt eligible until March.

can i just go get a phone she wants and then just give it to her/slide in her SIM card so she can have it? or is there more to it?

i can wait until march for a new phone. her aria with the 2.2 update sucks/freezes and she needs one bad. she didnt want root, so i didnt do it for her.
[HTC Aria Android Development] sd73ta:
Yup that's how sim cards work ( :

[HTC Aria Android Development] dh4645:
thanks...in between my post here and your answer, i had asked at&t and they responded with this...i understood up until the bolded part.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Noobla_Khan:
I don't know about all that...they make it sound complicated. I renewed my mother-in-laws line to get a texting phone for my daughter, when it showed up I just put my daughters sim card in and that was it. No problems that I noticed.
[HTC Aria Android Development] drumist:
I think the reason they are saying that is if the two phone numbers will have different types of phones. For example, if you have a smartphone on one line and a dumbphone without a data plan on another. As long as you are only switching between two Android phones, you shouldn't have to do anything besides moving the SIM card.

I suppose if you get an LTE phone there might be additional complications since I believe LTE requires an LTE-compatible SIM card. I'm not actually sure how that all works though.
[HTC Aria Android Development] dh4645:
oh ok i see.

yeah, i dont know what she might want. we usually just go to best buy to get our upgrades. guess they could do it...just hope there isnt some other charge for it.
[HTC Aria Android Development] tedkunich:

[HTC Aria Android Development] flipf0nt:
quick question, does anyone running 260 have broken gps? I think I missed something but mine hasn't been working for a while and hope a more recent rom would have fixed it ( which it hasn't, may be there is a fix i didn't see?) Thanks so much.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Darius_bd:
Errr, thanks. I think I got too used to my subscribed threads.
[HTC Aria Android Development] lsusparky621:
I believe this is correct.
[HTC Aria Android Development] tedkunich:
It is not broken, but it seems to forget the agps data after a few hours. If I run gps status, it will take a bit to lock on the sats, but after that, maps and navigation will lock within a few seconds.

T
[HTC Aria Android Development] hi2u2:
In a recent nightly, a commit was made that broke the GPS on the aria. Look back a few pages for a post by ladios, he attached two older GPS libs. You can push either one to your phone to restore GPS functionality.
[HTC Aria Android Development] dh4645:
how do i make the android market think my device is compatible?

i am trying to buy the minecraft game for 10 cents, but it says its not compatible with htc liberty

even if it wont work on the aria/liberty, i still wanna buy it for 10 cents so i can have it for my future devices and get official updates instead of going to 4shared or somewhere else every time there is an update
[HTC Aria Android Development] Darius_bd:
If it's country related lock you can use market enabler (requires root), if it's hardware related... no clue.
[HTC Aria Android Development] mbudden:
Its mostly hardware locked. I had to purchase them for my HP TouchPad to be able to get 2 of them IIRC.

Maybe try the online marketplace?

market.android.com
[HTC Aria Android Development] dh4645:
yeah i tried.

doesnt work.

u think they'd rather have 10 cents of my money than none of my money.

oh well.

Have we lost support? I haven't seen the build bot move in a while//?
[HTC Aria Android Development] kaboose01:

[HTC Aria Android Development] cHarley04:
I'm thinking of starting a Nightlies Anonymous group. Three weeks without a fix is killing me.

[HTC Aria Android Development] lsusparky621:
Are there any issues with N260? This could be very near a final stable release IMO.
[HTC Aria Android Development] tomtommy306:
I haven't had any issues with 260 at all.... think a final release is close as well.
[HTC Aria Android Development] n5kjb:
Have been running n260 since release - only issue is gps and I dealt with that by installing the stock htc gps file.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Darius_bd:
And it's a BIG change that one! I was getting used to fixing times of 2-5 minutes, now it's only 20 seconds on cold! damn. I'm curious about what's going on inside that can be that different (and give some errors to some users...)
[HTC Aria Android Development] tommyguns818:
^^ it would be pretty interesting to see what's makes the difference. Flashing the stock gps file had gotten me some quick locks. It feels good that I've been on n260 for some time now and its been running great.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Darius_bd:
For me the kernel has been awful. Sometimes I wake up the device and it would just throttle up the mhz only when I manage to load SetCPU. Until that, is sluggish as hell. Wish I could try DC's one without a problem...
[HTC Aria Android Development] cHarley04:
+1 - I've noticed the same thing on the stock kernel. Switching from Interactive to On Demand seems to have helped some. Definitely missing DC's kernel.
[HTC Aria Android Development] tommyguns818:
I've had data loss twice on stock kernel. once that happened I flashed 8.9.1. And have been using it for about a week now with no problems. I like my under clocking and couldn't resist.
[HTC Aria Android Development] dh4645:
u think they will fix gps in new nightlies?

i dont use it much, but i want it to work fast when i want it
[HTC Aria Android Development] strose09:
I'm running Nightly 260 with no GPS issues so I think it only affects certain people.
[HTC Aria Android Development] dh4645:
they better hurry up with a new release.

i might be getting a galaxy tab 10.1 for xmas, so i'll be reading up on all that stuff and forget about my poor aria. and if my wife doesnt take my phone upgrade soon, i'm just gonna go get one & she'll have to wait until march.
[HTC Aria Android Development] mbudden:
Looks like I might have the first USB-bricked Aria. Was reflashing a clean install of CM since it has been sold, and it seems like it's been USB bricked. CWM won't mount the SDCard, and the drivers in Windows isn't picking it up. I can view it in Linux and send adb and fastboot commands, but nothing will get the SDCard to mount so it can flash CM. :(

I see a lot of solutions for the HTC Desire but nothing for the Liberty.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Theonew:
Simply place the SD card in the card reader of your PC to transfer the file (or any other USB device with microsd support).
[HTC Aria Android Development] drumist:
Doesn't sound like a USB problem to me. It sounds like a SD card problem. Try it with a different SD card, or reformat the SD card using this: https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_3/
[HTC Aria Android Development] mbudden:
I've tried 3 MicroSD cards. It's not a MicroSD card issue.

It's an actual issue with the phone from what I see. I cleared the phone data etc in CWM, and when I went to go flash CM7.1. This is the error it spit out at me.

Nothing I have tried will make it work.

Did a bunch of Google searching and the only results I have found are solutions for the HTC Desire, and that deals with using a fastboot command to enable to SDCard. Unfortunately, tried that and yet to mount the SDCard.
[HTC Aria Android Development] mtnlion:
Surely you've tried a full wipe and clean install,right? Have you tried the stock ruu?

Sent from my MB865
[HTC Aria Android Development] tomtommy306:
If the sdcard can't mount then he can't flash. In this case it's gonna be hard to do anything short of factory reset.
[HTC Aria Android Development] mbudden:
EDIT: Someone want to send me a clean recovery files? Maybe I can flash it via FastBoot?

EDIT2: What I mean from above is a stock clean Nandroid backup, so I can enter these commands.

Thanks in advance.

I've tried the Stock RUU. But the thing is, Windows doesn't recognize the device. It doesn't load the drivers. Though I can do fastboot and adb commands in Linux. But the only problem with that is, the Stock RUU is a .exe file. Useless in Linux. Unless you know how to get the Stock RUU working in Linux, I think I'm stuck.

Correct.

Gives me "Okay" but still doesn't work.

Funny thing is, it boots up into CM7.1. Gets me to the "Click Android to Start" but after that process is complete... Nada. Black screen. Though it's mocking me since I'm able to start USB Debugging, though nothing else.
[HTC Aria Android Development] tomtommy306:
Try to use the alpharev or unlocker tools again. If it works... then you can then try to flash. If not, then IDK.
[HTC Aria Android Development] mtnlion:
Instead of flashing the system and boot img separate why don't you flash a complete rom?

Fastboot erase system

Fastboot erase userdata

Fastboot update romfilename.zip

Fastboot reboot

Just place whatever rom you want to flash where your fastboot is located.you can extract the stock rom from the ruu and use that if you wish. Once you're up and can read your SD again you should be able to restore a nandroid backup.

Sent from my MB865
[HTC Aria Android Development] mbudden:
Tried that, but I didn't get anywhere with that.

Whenever I would try,

It wouldn't go because it would tell me it was missing android.blahblah.txt

I used a program called "unruu" and extracted the files from the stock 2.2 update.

Flashed with Fastboot and I'm currently in Android. Now to see if I'm able to flash CM7.1.

I think I should be buying you all a brew for your help. :p
[HTC Aria Android Development] tomtommy306:
Hope you got it working.

Be sure and thank mntlion for the fastboot input.
[HTC Aria Android Development] drumist:
mbudden, I'll make you a clean Nandroid backup if you'd like. Do you just want CM 7.1.0 with gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip?

Edit: I went ahead and made one and sent a link in a PM to you. If you don't need it anymore, just disregard it. Good luck.
[HTC Aria Android Development] mbudden:
I was able to get it working. It seems that running an old version of CWM 2.x.x.x and just something went wrong when I did a factory reset. Though was able to finally boot Android and mount the SD Card within Android and everything was good there.

I'll be thanking quite a bunch of you :p

I already thanked you in your PM. But thanks again mate.
