Is that a feature of phone, Sense or CM7?

When I was running Sense ROMs, I was able to reboot my phone using volume buttons combined to power button.

I started noticing this because sometimes my phone would vibrate when screen was off and I was pressing volume buttons. No idea what that was, but then I started noticing I was able to reboot my phone using some weird volume & power button combination. Kinda like making a secret code in an old console game to unlock a special feature. :D
[Desire HD Android Development] ticalo:
Try this, at any screen hold down the middle of the volume button and press the power button quickly
[Desire HD Android Development] Fihlvein:
Rebooted at first try. :p

Ok, a detailed behavior:

It doesn't matter whether screen is on or off.

1) Pressing both VOL UP & VOL DOWN at the same time = force close sound

2) Pressing both VOL UP & VOL DOWN at the same time + POWER BUTTON once = instant reboot

This works even in CWM recovery! Maybe there is no need to take out battery if there is a complete lock for some reason, just press all three buttons at once.

Is the behavior same for everybody?
[Desire HD Android Development] alind_:
On 1) it dumps all processes' states and stacktraces to /data/arn/traces.txt

Get same on 2)

Cool and useful
[Desire HD Android Development] Fihlvein:
I would like to confirm whether you are experiencing the same issue with ADW EX.

Sometimes after reboot all widgets are telling you "Problem loading widget" and none of them will show.

I just tried to fix permissions, clear cache, clear dalvik, none helped. How annoying, I'm a picture widget freak and those are not so nice to readd constantly.

Probably a bug in ADW EX.
[Desire HD Android Development] kramerty88:
Tried it again and I found that it's indeed the middle of the volume button. So most likely I clicked volume up aswell. When I try that it works every time.

But what is the feature for? Is it a hard reboot that worlds even when phone is stuck?
[Desire HD Android Development] mad-murdock:
bat fix #8 just uploaded.

my hopes are high its the final version which is integrated into nightlies soonish...
[Desire HD Android Development] itscro:
Lockscreen controls work fine with Spotify for me, using nightly #19. I'm downloading #23 now so I'll let you know how if anything changes.
[Desire HD Android Development] mad-murdock:
bat-fix Build #9 uploaded.

change: hide AicBootFix from app-drawer and list of applications
[Desire HD Android Development] mad-murdock:
i get it starting with 43€ plus postage - quiet nice... just stupid i just bought a gigabit ether switch for about 30€ (:

but thanks for those hints... so wmm is always wifi-N and not doable with 54mbit/changed mini-pci card/one antenna?

i guess reducing my pings to 4-16 is more than worth it...
[Desire HD Android Development] mad-murdock:
this was the combintion i missed most when switching from bravo to ace... so i dont have to remove battery anymore!

thanks mate! (my daily thanks are used up)
[Desire HD Android Development] PiCkLeS:
Not sure if you got an answer about this? Anyway, I have had these problems, until I found out that I was way to fast to enter my pin code (or didnt have one) for the sim card.

As long as the sd card icon shows dont enter the code and "log on" to the phone after a reboot, do it when it disappears.

My problems all were related to the sd card not being initialized before I entered the code.

//P
[Desire HD Android Development] cursordroid:
Cool and useful, unless it's in your pocket and when you take it out to answer a call you press those buttons all at once with your big sasquatch hands!

Very frustrating... but not the worst thing that could happen I'm sure.
[Desire HD Android Development] Fihlvein:
Ah, thanks! Will do that. It's strange though why the SD card matters since none of my widgets are located in SD card...

I noticed once the widgets are gone, even after reboot they are not coming back.
[Desire HD Android Development] emyllis:
On a slightly separate topic, is there any countdown clock (Ideally like the android countdown clock from sense) that would be great. I was trying to set a timer for tea tonight and realised there's not one (unless I'm stupid) in this mod...

Please flame away at my ignorance though :)
[Desire HD Android Development] 1234568:
I had a very similar situation a while ago. I couldn't believe such a feature complete rom as CM7 doesn't have a stop watch or countdown timer. Unless I'm being ignorant too!
[Desire HD Android Development] emyllis:
edcoppen what was your solution? I think I'm going to have to see if there's something, as something is better than nothing...

Such as

http://www.appbrain.com/search?q=countdown

but it's a shame such a useful feature isn't included.
[Desire HD Android Development] EmptyArea:
Imo this is an awkward one. Ideally, anything that is readily available in the market (as a stopwatch/timer is) should be left as an optional addon; there are of cause exceptions. This I would say falls into a grey area. An almost non noteworthy addition to an excellent rom.

Swyped on transparent XDA app.
[Desire HD Android Development] emyllis:
Thanks - I imagine it's a case of wait for a bit then and see what happens...

What have you used before then? I think a stopgap method might be the way forward.
[Desire HD Android Development] snowwhite007:
Does this support a2sd
[Desire HD Android Development] 1234568:
I found one called Ultrachron Lite. It does everything I need. Its free too ;)
[Desire HD Android Development] EmptyArea:
My solution is TwoTouch Timer.

I also use Alarm Clock Plus (free)<- identical to cm7 clock but with loads of features.

I then add the widget for TTT to the desk view of ACP and bingo.

Kali write in the first post to use the old radio. Is this actual or is there a better kerner that can we use?
[Desire HD Android Development] I'm TheQuest:
Hi chrissooo

Radio and Kernel are two different things.

RADIO:-

KERNEL:-

Take Care

TheQuest :cool:
[Desire HD Android Development] Drew442:
WMM isn't part of 11G or 11N, it's just that 11N has the framework to support it. You can check on wi-fi.org for the AP and look at it's certification certificate, there you can see if it's been tested for WMM and passed.

Can you see if you can dig any notes up on the kernel driver for the wireless in the DHD?

Everyone says to set wireless to never sleep but this shouldn't be an issue with WMM...
[Desire HD Android Development] dreaswar:
Build #24 is out. I think mad's battery fix is integrated in this build

[Desire HD Android Development] Setsuna666:
Just tried build #25 with mad-murdock battery fix #9 and everytime I enable Wifi, the phone reboot.

I did wipe, dalvik-cache and factory/reset.

Any Idea on how to solve the issue ?
[Desire HD Android Development] Chezbel:
Hope that will work for you...
[Desire HD Android Development] Setsuna666:
Great, will give it a try.

[Desire HD Android Development] Chezbel:

[Desire HD Android Development] kramerty88:
Just one issue. It's not a huge bug, but when I use the flash while making a photo the brightness of my screen will go to 100% and stay at it. I'll have to manually change it back.

I use vignette for it btw. But hadn't had a problem before. So could be app in stead of cm. That's why I let both know.
[Desire HD Android Development] deadite66:
BBC iplayer (or any other video site) broken with flash 10.2 with this rom?

i get screen flashing and garbled video.
[Desire HD Android Development] Vispe85:
That was reported some while ago, I had the same issue sometimes and I got the screen back to normal settings by just switching the screen off/on. Just a little bit faster than manually changing it. It is bug still, and I guess it's the camera app :(
[Desire HD Android Development] 1234568:
Same here :(
[Desire HD Android Development] mad-murdock:
this will be a huge one - hope you got coffee :D

to include anything to this rom, and app must fullfil 2 conditions:

- be fully open source (prefered inside git / on github)

- the author acknowledging us to include his sources to cm7

cm7 probably follows the open source philosophy very very straight. we have some closed source things included, but only because they are from phone vendors, and we got no choice. everything else is open source in agreement with the original author. we wont include any app, just because its free on the market.

a2sd? seriously? with 2.2gb internal emmc nand? i guess it will support a2sd - you could use kali's legacy a2sd r3 from bravo nightly thread, but you got 1,1 gb free userdata after installation.

i had a bravo (desire) before i upgraded to desire hd, and i ran out VERY fast of space and a2sd was mandatory for me. on desire hd, i dont get more than 50% used.

but again: yes, it is supported with kali's script - even though noone tested on ace yet.

as i already answered about 3-4 times here:

the "old" radio is recommended, because newer radios fix the s-off loophole. so if we recommend a new radio, you flash the radio, but didnt do s-off before, you are screwed. you cannot downgrade again, you cannot s-off.

understand the huge number of users of this rom making us a bit conservative. just go ahead, used latest radio if you got s-off already and know, what you are doing.

you convinced me to buy that router. spending 20-30 euro for a new 11g network adapater or spending ~45 euro for a 11n router... its obvious what i do. thanks for your help so far.

now, maybe i can help. the reason for wifi never sleep recommandation is battery life. it takes less battery when wifi stays connected all the time, than scanning all networks and reconnecting to a probably wpa encrypted network each time you press the power button to check your lockscreen.

apart from that, you find the kernel driver here: https://github.com/Kali-/htc-kernel-msm7x30/tree/master/drivers/net/wireless/bcm4329

known issue and reported on issue tracker.

oh shut up (: cyanogen just did a long discussion about that issue. it seems like adobe does some direct hardware access now - and we have to adjust a lot of stuff -on kernel, libs and framework- for this to work on cm7. it sucks, we all hate it, its totally stupid, but in the end we probably will do it. why has a "user app" access to hardware registers anyways?!?

for now, use flash 10.1 to watch p0rn
[Desire HD Android Development] Drew442:
@mad-murdock

Grab the antennas too. Even if your coverage requirement is small, it'll let you wind the power down on the AP to match the power on the phone and your experience will be much better. Worth it for the $6 each they're asking.
[Desire HD Android Development] Drew442:
I just read the bcm4329 has an FM transmitter also. Would be cool to have it transmit FM to the car stereo for those without BT in their cars...

Also Space Time Block Coding (STBC), Short Gual Interval (SGI), A-MPDU aggregation, Block Ack, Greenfield, RIFS -- this means if 5ghz is also enabled we can join 300mbps networks and with frame aggregation get some serious throughput.

[Desire HD Android Development] vinnieminnie:
Could it be possible to make sure HTC Sync 868 doesn't get installed on my DHD with CM7, everytime I connect my phone to my laptop? It's a background service that uses up my battery and 1 GB data limit, but I don't even use it and I want to get rid of it. I can uninstall it with Titanium backup, but it's back every time I reconnect my phone to a PC.
[Desire HD Android Development] EmptyArea:
Do you have HTC Sync installed on your laptop...

Edit:

lol
[Desire HD Android Development] vinnieminnie:
Hmm, I guess that's the problem, indeed. Don't mind me ^^
[Desire HD Android Development] z0ltrix:
I think this topic has been beaten to death. So far the consensus is that we need external circuitry to truly enable the tx mode. A software-only solution is not possible. I remember a guy from XDA had sent a letter to the company that manufactures bcm4329 chip and they confirmed a software-only solution is not possible on EVO.

But this is from like 6 months before. If anyone has latest news...please share.

I don't know if this is related to that problem or if it's something else entirely but I get stuck in a CM7 animated logo screen loop if I use use the 7th March gapps. It happens only after I enter my Google account details. The previous version doesn't have the same issue and lead to me using that to get CM7 running.
[Desire HD Android Development] Setsuna666:
Don't know if this problem was already mentioned, but I noticed that the phone's always awake because of the email app. Spare parts is reporting the email app in partial wake usage section.

Check/Polling frequency for all accounts is set to never, auto-sync is disabled.

The only solution so far is to kill the email process in order to resolve the problem.

I'm using latest gapps with nightly build #25.

Strange isn't it?

I distrust CMW 3.x.x.x ; especially which respects to nandroids. This is the first time i've heard of it* messing up someones phone after a backup rather than a restore!

[Desire HD Android Development] rafah:
Now my battery is blue again but stil no lockscreen.
[Desire HD Android Development] rafah:
It restores my previous nadriod perfectly but after i created a new one and it is clear it reboots itself and then the problem appears.

I also mis some appointments from my google agenda didn't checked it if it's in the widget our also on my computer.

[Desire HD Android Development] mad-murdock:
hmm - what issues you have with 3.0.0.6? especially concerning nandroid? i switch between my all-day-rom and a minimalistic dev-rom pretty often with nandroid backup/restore and never had any issues with it. also, its the first time i read about cwm3006 not working
[Desire HD Android Development] EmptyArea:
I'll do more tests, I do not do regular nandroids and your comment is enough for me to reconsider my distrust. However, twice after restoring two different backups both made with 3...6 I had issues. One all the apps forced closed including the launcher and cache wipes and p.fix didn't help. The other time it got stuck on splash. both were fixed by wiping cache's and flashing the rom in the restore over the top. Data remained intact.

The rom works perfectly for me. However, no matter what I try I cannot get the Email to work with my Microsoft exchange server.

It keeps saying that the phone does not have the security features on this phone. This works fine on the any of the sense roms. I have also tried to replace the email.apk from a different rom but still no luck.

Fyi: my server requires installation of a remote administrator for complex passwords and remote wipe...
