CyanogenMod 7

Using this for my daily driver, my little Aria is the envy of many. I have tested and confirmed these to work:

USB Tethering (AT&T HSDPA "4G" in Oklahoma City, OK - however Speedtest.net saw 1056ms ping 0.3Mbps down and 0.01 Mbps up - actual usage of the internet was faster than my college's WiFi)

GPS (Accuracy <10m)

Music Mod (Available in the Market, works brilliantly. Was default in CM6, sorely missed in CM7 - Again search Market for "Music Mod")

Trackball Wake / Rotary Lockscreen / Lockscreen Music Controls

A Few Problems:

Gmail Unread Count widget non-stop FC. (No app updates since before Gingerbread was released.)

ONE Random reboot while playing Ken Magic's Solitaire. Have not been able to replicate.

Vlingo force closes all the time, but works most of the time. (Also no app updates since Gingerbread release)

Apps will sometimes not install. Sometimes "Unknown Error -18" other times the notification simply disappears and you have to restart the installation.

Most of these are problems with the app developers not supporting GB yet, NOT WITH CM7.

Stuff I use a lot but have not tested yet on CM7:

WiFi Tethering (No need anymore since my college has my MAC addresses in their bypass list)

Headset controls (Should work. My Aria shipped with a $39 headset with mic and music controls, my friend's Evo did not.)

Google Maps Navigation (I know where I am going)

All testing done with CyanogenMod-7-01222011-NIGHLTY-Liberty which is Build 12.

Use Titanium to back up applications, their data, and market links.

Use MyBackup Root for everything else (contacts that aren't in the cloud, SMS, MMS, call log, music playlists, etc.)

Coming from CM 6.1.1, I did a Factory Restore/Wipe, Format System, flashed CM 7 build #1, then Gingerbread GApps. Later I flashed build #9, used that for a bit, then flashed build #12. I don't understand why some things don't work for some people.

CM7 is top dog for the Aria and many other devices. Nightly builds being made public for "brave testers" gives the devs more time polishing code than testing. Although, I'm sure they test it enough on their own devices. Good job guys.
[HTC Aria Android Development] yneill:
To get rom updates use rom manager it will send you a notification
[HTC Aria Android Development] drowningchild:
I never used navigation but i use headset controls everyday confirmed both for stock & poweramp music players, also wifi tethering works as does usb with ubuntu 10.10

for unread widget you could get ADW Notify if you use the stock launcher its free

I do to constantly get error 18 installing apps :( usually when i factory reset my phone getting GApps

Hello everybody,

I have a question on CM7, yes... is a stupid question, but ...

Why in message there isn't my photo on my send message. I have add my number to a new contact with my name and photo, but don't work...

any idea?
[HTC Aria Android Development] sd73ta:
am i blind? not seeing it....
[HTC Aria Android Development] Darius_bd:
How you configured the app??

That largely depends on the number of locked on satellites and their position to the horizon rather than the hardware ;)

Settings -> Call Settings -> Aditional Settings -> My phone number -> add your number there and your pic should show up in the sms if you set up the contact with your info

It's on top, above the displayed items that consumes most battery and it has the time that's been running on batteries over it. It's grey color.

[HTC Aria Android Development] pigman46:
You can click the graph to get more detail too
[HTC Aria Android Development] tpbklake:
You have to go into Settings -> Call -> Additional Settings and set your phone number. CM 6/7 for the Aria does not read this information from the SIM card.
[HTC Aria Android Development] pigman46:
Yeah, I'm using the beta. I've got the message before on CM6 not in the beta, so i got signed up and it worked fine. When I moved to CM7 it gave that message again; I think in nightly 6? I completely removed it and haven't tried again. I'll do that and see if it works now.
[HTC Aria Android Development] sd73ta:
I thought maybe it was the top bar that was being talked about. I though something wasn't working for me. sorry bout that
[HTC Aria Android Development] dandrumheller:
Noted an oddity just now. Been running nightly 9 for a few days, and just happened to connect my bt headset. In past versions, a short press on the multi function button on the headset would launch either an app selector, or whatever was selected as a default app. A long press would redial last called number. In this version I am getting the redial behavior on either short or long press.

Not sure if this is a conflict with vlingo (which as others have noted has not been updated since gb) or some app default I can clear.

Anyone else notice this?

Thanks.

Edit: checked vlingo, had some defaults set (i don't recall setting them since going to nightly builds). Cleared them, and got the app chooser on short press. Reset default to vlingo incar for short press, seems to be behaving normally now.
[HTC Aria Android Development] lilhaiti:
Did the File Manager app change? In the earlier Nightlies and CM6 I was able to view the files in SD-EXT folder (I use DT APPS2SD), but now when I go to the folder it is empty, I use Root Explorer and there are my apps. Just wondering.
[HTC Aria Android Development] pigman46:
Okay I figured it out. Last time I installed, I missed that it was "Licensing Swype" and was impatient and pressed back a bunch to try it out immediately. This time I let it license and it works fine. Wish it would say "Not licensed" instead of "Device not supported."
[HTC Aria Android Development] G1-8701:
build 14 seems a lot slower then 12, anybody else experiencing this?
[HTC Aria Android Development] jznomoney:
the development of cm7 will be progressing slow this week so no new patches will really be applied. cyanogen is on a well deserved vacation.
[HTC Aria Android Development] jdwhite87:
Very VERY well deserved! Thank y'all again!
[HTC Aria Android Development] realawill:
Quick noob question. Will the nightly builds wipe with each install? Also are they available from rommanager?
[HTC Aria Android Development] mikelebz:
just got my 16 gig class 10 in the mail. now all I need is CM7 final and I will have a fresh kick ass phone! Keep up the good work guys!
[HTC Aria Android Development] j.fignole:
Thank you guys. Next paycheck I'm finding a donate link
[HTC Aria Android Development] zervic:
No, you don't have to wipe DATA with each install. It is advised that you wipe cache and dalvik cache though I have not seen any ill effects of not doing so. I would stay away from ROM manager if I were you.
[HTC Aria Android Development] ladios:
he's back and merged a lot of changes.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Tx Redneck:
Ok, I've found a minor issue, I cannot add FB to my contacts acct. to have those numbers as well as my GV numbers.
[HTC Aria Android Development] strose09:
You need to log onto fb and click menu and click sync. Then go to Accounts&Sync on your phone under settings and then it will sync with your contacts.
[HTC Aria Android Development] r0cky0790:
Definitely stay away from rom manager. Your better off doing everything manually.

[HTC Aria Android Development] Vindolanda:
Has anyone been having scaling issues with the default music player? In portrait, the song titles are cut off for me. The controls cover it.

Only other issue is that the widget controls in the notification and the power control widget don't seem to be working well together. My data seems to cancel each other out (enabled on the notification bar but doesn't enable itself in the power bar).

Small issues, but if anyone has any fixes I can do, that'd be great :p

Beside those, it's been running great.
[HTC Aria Android Development] r0cky0790:
Flash the new nightly, your problem may be fixed....

Just installed Nightly 7 liberty on Aria, woooohoooo seems great. Thank you
[HTC Aria Android Development] vicmora5:
How do I know which nightly build i have?

Is it the mod version under about phone in settings?

It says CyanogenMod-7-01162011-NIGHTLY-Liberty

Is this the latest one?

Sorry im still learning about all this
[HTC Aria Android Development] DanGeorges:
If you flashed with a ROM nightly build, it's the one you flashed.

The date is the date it was built - not the date posted. Sometimes these are the same (like number 15).

The one you have was built on January 16th, so it's probably the first one (zero).

I may be wrong - so someone with deeper knowledge please let me know...
[HTC Aria Android Development] jun_ng_1208:
That's the older version, if you wanna know more then jz head over to the mirror link and check out the release date of the build then you'll know whether you have the latest one or not :)
[HTC Aria Android Development] DanGeorges:
Here's the link:

http://mirror.teamdouche.net/?device=liberty
[HTC Aria Android Development] vicmora5:
Ok so the later version are somewhere in this thread I guess? If I want to update, do i just flash the latest one? Or do I have to go in order o.o Sorry im kinda confused and this thread's not very organized
[HTC Aria Android Development] G1-8701:
is there a channel log somewhere on the additions and removals of each nightly? i couldn't find it
[HTC Aria Android Development] Tx Redneck:
Thank you. I was logged in but I didn't know I had to set FB to sync since HTC/ATT thought everyone would want that in the stock rom.
[HTC Aria Android Development] DanGeorges:
You can flash the latest build without going in order. Each stands on its own.

unplug device from usb cabling

put phone into recovery mode

nandroid backup (if you want)

wipe cache partition

wipe dalvik cache (in advanced menu)

install zip from SD card
[HTC Aria Android Development] vicmora5:
Alright thanks, can someone help me find the latest one. I'l be searching as well.

Is the dialer working for anybody on build 15? Calls wouldn't come through and when I tried to make a call com.android.phone force closed every time. Had to go back to 14 because I might need to make or receive a phone call tomorrow lol
[HTC Aria Android Development] jgeiger:
I had the same problem. im going back to build 14
[HTC Aria Android Development] Tx Redneck:
I flashed it yesterday in the AM as soon as I saw it was up and I haven't had any issues. :shrug:
[HTC Aria Android Development] TNPaparazzi:
I'm having the same problem.. maybe it's because of the "GPS fix" in one of the previous posts? I'm gonna wipe everything again and give it another go
[HTC Aria Android Development] soccerstud19b:
Calls aren't working for me either..... :(
[HTC Aria Android Development] Army_Spec_Ops:
I havent had a single problem with GPS or anything else when i installed CM7.... until now... i updated to the new build and the only problem that i am having now is i cant call out or receive calls. when ever i try to call out i get a little window saying that the phone crashed.... so.... i went back to the last build :D lol
[HTC Aria Android Development] DanGeorges:
Phone works fine for me

GPS a bit slower to lock, but still working.

Keyboard in landscape sometimes has pop-up indicators under the keys.
[HTC Aria Android Development] arajay:
so far the only issue i'm having is no vibrate on notifications or calls. anybody had this problem? i followed the rules when i flashed the first and 7th nightly. wiped cache & dalvik each time since and just noticed this on 10-13.

GPS is still blazing fast on the lock and i love the auto feature for app installs to SD or internal storage
[HTC Aria Android Development] brswattt:
I verify that the phone app keeps closing also. I have never had a problem with every other build. Build #15 keeps FCing. Reverted back to #14.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Darius_bd:
Sure you set the options of Vibrate = Always?
[HTC Aria Android Development] jun_ng_1208:
I had the same issue after installing the build #15 too :( just reverted back to build #14 to make sure everything is alright...
[HTC Aria Android Development] hungmung:
I has the same issue with the dialer closing when I tried to make a call had to go back to #14

Swapper2

Is it possible to use a swap partition? and what about apps2ext? i have both partitions on my SD card and in the order of fat23-ext3-swap. when I try to enable it in swapper2 or with the command "swapon" it says "function not implemented." what does that mean? is it a kernal problem? if so, where can i get a stable OC and swap enabled kernel? if not, what can i do to make this work? i know very little linux commands, but i think i can suffice. Help will be much appreciated.

Thank you
[HTC Aria Android Development] dandrumheller:
for apps2ext you will need to install dt apps2ext as it is not included in cm. check a couple threads below this one for dl and instructions. Cm kernel supports oc out of the box, install setcpu or no-frills cpu control.
[HTC Aria Android Development] arajay:
For sure. It seems that it keeps going back to only on silent but even in that profile no vibe for notifications. haptic feedback is working.
[HTC Aria Android Development] arajay:
Ok now its time to remove the foot from my mouth... I never checked the settings within the actual messaging app... Crisis averted
[HTC Aria Android Development] Ngong0:
I already overclock, that was not my problem. the main thing i want to do is swap filing. but it will not work. I was just meaning that if i need to get a new kernel, it has to be OC capable.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Darius_bd:
Afaik, you dont need a swap partition. I mean, running out of RAM is weird enough, I dont think the swap is ever needed...
[HTC Aria Android Development] gdgeorge:
It's a well deserved break too!

Thanks for the hard work in putting this together.
[HTC Aria Android Development] MythicBlue:
same her FC every time i try to make call...going back to build 14
[HTC Aria Android Development] vicmora5:
cant seem to find build 14, can someone help me out
[HTC Aria Android Development] Noobla_Khan:
After I set up gMail I went into the sync settings and sync email was unchecked, checked it and it has been syncing since.

LauncherPro Plus on CM 6.1.1 was just as smooth for me as Sense, LauncherPro Plus on CM 7 is not, but it's the first nightly so things will probably sort out.
[HTC Aria Android Development] zamula:
I'm not sure if this is true for CM6 as well, but I notice 3gpp videos don't play at all and other videos won't resize to fit the entire screen. FR008 didn't have these issues.

Besides the minor things others have noted, this is a very impressive first build for CM7!
[HTC Aria Android Development] barisahmet:
That was what I try to tell exactly. I hope it will be better, still GREAT for first version (:
[HTC Aria Android Development] zervic:
Good call I thought I looked there and all was good lol but guess not...
[HTC Aria Android Development] Moh_Jay:
I'm using launcher pro plus and it's just as smooth on cm7 as it was on cm 6.1.1 0.o

Signatures are fancy.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Noobla_Khan:
Hmmm...I may do a re-install and format the system partition, which I didn't do the first time, as well as fix permissions after and see if that changes anything.

It's by no means horrible, just not as smooth as LauncherPro on CM 6.1.1.
[HTC Aria Android Development] rkrishnan2012:
wait. so does this mean every night he will post a new one?

Boot looping

I have followed the directions on clearing all the caches and everything, but i still get a reboot. when the phone turns on, it loads normally then get's to the "getting started" screen. The amount of time that i can use the phone varies. but it is usually only 5 seconds, maybe. but it will then freeze and then go back to the animated boot screen. and it cycles through that. i really want to check this out, but it wont get passed the "getting started" thing.
[HTC Aria Android Development] tpbklake:
Are these the steps you are following? They were revised earlier this morning:

1. Wipe data/factory reset

2. Wipe cache

3. Wipe Dalvik

4. Partitions menu > Format System

5. Install CM 7. Nightly

6. Install GB-GoogleApps!

7. Reboot and hello CM7

Step #4 can help you get past the bootlooping problem.
[HTC Aria Android Development] jeebuz:
LP+ is not HORRIBLY slow, but it does stutter more than when in CM6.1.1; this is after I overclocked it too.

Also, Apps2SD is a hit or miss situation. Lol

Some apps will move, some will generate an error "Not enough space"
[HTC Aria Android Development] Ngong0:
Yeah. I tried it 3 times in a row. nothing. but now i feel dumb, because i believe it was gapps causing the problem, i didn't install it, and it worked. will it mess anything up if i have booted it, and then install gapps?
[HTC Aria Android Development] CallMeAria:
Been running it since last night and didn't have any problems moving apps to sd. Also I installed launcher pro to the /system/app folder and its running as smooth as cm6. I'm not getting any lag. I've noticed a lot of the little bugs, but I'm sure those will all get ironed out.

I also had a very hard time getting the rom to boot first time around. I couldn't get past the HTC screen at first. Wiped data and formatted the system and then It would keep going back to the boot animation, I just kept pulling the battery and wiping the caches/dalvic and after a few tries it booted and all was well. So for those having trouble don't give up hope!
[HTC Aria Android Development] CallMeAria:
If it's the correct gapps it shouldn't cause any problems. Make a backup just incase. And make sure you're installing the right gapps.
[HTC Aria Android Development] tpbklake:
Make sure you are doing Step 4 (that was the change that was added this morning) and that you are using the GingerBread version of gapps. The fact that you were able to get booted without loading gapps could either be:

1. You didn't Format /system and you are installing GB-Google Apps (which will cause a bootlooping problem)

2. You did Format /system but you are trying to install an older version of Google Apps (not the Gingerbread version).
[HTC Aria Android Development] Maroon Mushroom:
So far so good. I also had issues with the boot loop but the reason was because I had the older google apps package that I was installing with it. Once I flashed CM7 and then then newer gapps everything was fine. I cleared my cache but I didn't need to format to get it to work.

Current CM7 observations:

BUILD #7

A few different kind of selection boxes ARE noticeably pixelated.

Battery performance is either just as or slightly better than CM6.1.1.

I have my CM7 version overclocked to 864mhz without a single problem.

Bluetooth working

Screen off and on animation working

Newest Swype package working (release 15552)

Fast GPS locks (same as CM6)

Trackball wake + unlock working

Surface dithering seems to be enabled by default.

Lock messaging app in memory disabled by default.

FB + google sync working

Overclocking working

Most apps seem 2.3 compatible

I'll update this as I notice anything different.

EDIT:

I HAVE seen some issues with WiFi. I'll stay connected but I won't have data going in or out. When this happens, the cell service and Wifi strength bars are grey instead of their normal green color. Tested with 2 access points both with the same result. This doesn't happen all the time and it's not enough to be a huge concern, especially because this is a Nightly release.

LED notification NOT working.

Still pixelation issues.

Occasional market crashes.

There's a bug when attempting to attach a picture to a txt occasionally. The message saying "select attachment" will stay on the screen even after the text has been sent. The only way to remove it is to force close messaging. Have only had this happen once

Having issues upgrading nightly builds w/ Rom Manager Premium. Notification works, when ROM is flashed, I have no keyboard at all. Doing it manually instead to get around.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Ngong0:
I think it was an old version of Gapps. it iw all working now. Thank you. :D
[HTC Aria Android Development] tgpqaz:
Got it on and its working fine for me, except for the Apps2Sd of course. Loving the lock animation!!! :)
[HTC Aria Android Development] DanGeorges:
ActiveSync with exchange server not syncing contacts.

Email is syncing.

Not sure if this is just me or something with this build.

Otherwise, I may just have been swayed away from Liberated F008 - this is a very snappy build.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Nutshell69:
My Exchange synced contacts - it did take a while and not all contacts came over on the first push - but eventually thy did

Everything working here (wifi, bluetooth, hotspot, ...)

will have to try USB Tethering again - couldnt get that going.

Gallery is cool - seems a bit slugish - but I like the effect so I can live with it :)

[HTC Aria Android Development] uhhhyeahhh:
just an fyi. i installed #15 and it looks great! i'm super excited about it!

except, it force closes everytime i receive a call or try to call out :(

so i'm gonna wait for a stable version lol
[HTC Aria Android Development] DanGeorges:
Very strange. I have build 15 loaded, and am not having any problems making or receiving calls.

The only thing's I've noticed:

Optical track pad doesn't move as fast through text as FR008

You can't select the colors of various e-mail accounts

GPS is a tad slower to lock than in version 12 (could be the cloudiness today)

This may be a FR008/Sense-only thing, but I REALLY liked the linked contacts (FB, Google, Exchange). It's too bad you can't link accounts in the "stock" Android OS.

.
[HTC Aria Android Development] hungmung:
You can link contacts from facebook at least I'm not sure about exchange I don't use it.. You just have to log into the facebook app and choose sync all in the options. Then you can join any facebook entries and phonebook entries you want
