Yep. I flash every nightly and never had a problem. My routine is:

- Titanium backup of my data+system

- Nandroid backup

- Wipe cache (cache only, not data)

- Wipe Dalvik

- Install nightly

- Install Mad #7 battery patch

It takes a few minutes to do that, but it's worth it if something goes wrong. If you don't like the nightly you can then go back to RC2 by doing:

- Wipe cache (cache only, not data)

- Wipe Dalvik

- Restore the nandroid backup you made earlier (or reinstall RC2)

spotify? i neither know what that is nor did any answer intend to talk about that - probably a missunderstanding....

afaik the lockscreen controls only control the default music app

yes, i got samba running - but i deinstalled it again, since i personally think, wifi file explorer does a better job. i use samba on my server to access my tv shows and movies and usually use rock player for avi and vplayer for mkv files

but there is an issue on the built in movie player with playing landscape movies in portrait and vice verse - afaik its not been fixed yet.

Yes I can reproduce this by enabling full screen in browser settings and restarting browser.

I've seen this in pre-rc1 nightlies too.
[Desire HD Android Development] 1234568:
Thanks alind! It never crossed my mind that it was related to full screen mode but you're exactly right. If I disable it the problem is instantly solved. The weird space at the top where the problem occurs is even the same size as the status bar.

How do I go about reporting this officially. Is mentioning it here enough or should I start a tracker?

I have had this issue with virtually all CM7 nightlies, crops up every now and again. Phone turned itself off totally the other day even though battery was virtually full.
[Desire HD Android Development] EmptyArea:
I've experienced this too, however I used to get it when I set very low clockspeeds for my sleep policy on all the different Froyo roms I tried.. Luckily for me it's very in frequent so I accept it as part of having minimal battery use whilst in sleep.

Also I find that if I press the button, and the screen flicks the best sign it's gone wrong is the softkeys stay alight. If I wait for the keys to dim again I can switch the screen back on via the power button without the phone rebooting.

vignette. its by far the best camera app. it rocks every other cam app. it was in the top 10 paid apps until they had to start over since they used testkeys to sign.

it once tesed vignette vs stock camera on bravo, and the difference was HUGE.

wrong. the SYSTEM dalvik cache (dalvik for all files in /system/app) is located in /cache/dalvik-cache.... cache for all apps is at /data/dalvik-cache.

remember cm7 is for 25 targets. moving system dalvik (where you know the exact size of) to cache partition is okay, but moving data dalvik there might bring you out of space even though you still got space on data. sure its unlikely with our huge huge cache partition, but for other devices this could happen.

thats why its seperated.

about the proper channel (which was already linked): never report issues on nightly builds. only report issues on stable or RC builds. else PsychoI3oy will find you and cut of one finger (:

if you are sure its in RC, too, but you use a nightly, PRETEND its happening on RC to bypass that finger issue (: it worked for me...

maybe - the boot animation is at /system/media/bootanimation.zip - since aosp features boot sound (see other roms), it should be possible. either search cm forums or download any other rom, and check where their boot sound lives (probably in the same directory) - i doubt we disabled that stock feature but only deleted the sound file.

well, the people reporting this also mentioned they modified the fequencies. you should know, every cpu is kinda unique. one cpu can handle a specific frequency with a specific voltage, where another cannot handle it. the origin is probably in the creation of the cpus. now imagine your cpu can handle 1512 just roughly, its sleeping at 208, you press the screen button, the govonor ramps up the max speed, and boom goes your cpu.

since only few people have this issue, i suggest trying not to overclock for a few days and see if things change. if it does change, try 1400 instead of 1512.

also, after each boot, you got a file /proc/last_kmesg which contains the log of the last boot. at the end should be a hint, why your system rebooted.
[Desire HD Android Development] mad-murdock:
now i got a question myself. when your phone is connected to your wifi, and you ping it from inside your network, how long does the ping take? for me its between 80ms and 200ms which is WAY too long. i already changed the minipci wifi card in my wl500gp router, but the result stays the same.

i am not quiet sure where to search for the reason for this. anyone of you can ping your ace with <10ms? (usually <1ms should be achieved in a LAN)
[Desire HD Android Development] bigtin:
I've already run fix permissions after flashing the nightly and gapps, it's only happened once in the last two days now compared to a few times a day previously so I'm just going to monitor it and see how it goes. I'm also on stock CPU freqs and governor.

Mad-murdock: Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:

Minimum = 15ms, Maximum = 172ms, Average = 62ms

That's LAN to WLAN, radio is 26.08.03.07_M

I was hoping you would comment on that. I didn't think Clockwork Recovery was specifically backing up Dalvik separately from the rest of Cache just to waste time.
[Desire HD Android Development] Chezbel:
Not my area of expertise so hopefully I tested this correctly. On my PC I found my phone's IP address by looking at the wireless modem info and finding the device with my phone's MAC address. Then I pinged that address and got this, which is a little better than what you mentioned, but not hugely so:

[Desire HD Android Development] Drew442:
That's not really enough info :)

Wireless is a complex system and even more so with hand-helds. Regardless of the fact you can plug a router in and it works.

First of all ditch that AP for something that supports WMM. The way low power devices are handled pre-WMM is on a schedule which makes them suffer greatly. To a point where I recommend power management be disabled.

Second I'm not familiar with that box, does it have a removable antenna system? is it a single antenna? how much gain does the antenna provide and how much power does the radio provide? Is the radio power adjustable?

Generally speaking a network for handhelds should have diversity antennas (2 or more) and a low power + high gain radio/antenna configuration. This is the resiprosity rule. Remember the antenna increases gain on signals sent AND recieved.

Tip #1 -- REDUCE your coverage area. Decrease you AP's radio power until you get the least acceptable signal strength at the furthest point you require signal from the access point. There's quite a few reasons for this and without going into detail they involve 802.11's mechanisms for fairplay on the medium (air), hidden nodes and signal propagation.

Tip #2 -- DON'T put the AP in the middle of the coverage area. It belongs on the edge of the coverage area. Every node on the network needs to know when the other node is talking. If you have two devices out of ear shot of each other you have to go to back off timers and to request to send mechanisms to get fairplay. This is a massive performance killer.

Tip #3 -- If there's no clear channels in the area choose a channel that others are using. For example if 1, 6 and 11 have heaps of AP's on them don't choose 3 or 8. All channels on the 2.4ghz band overlap, signal in the overlap is always considered noise. If you pick 1, 6 or 11 with everyone else then your devices will use fairplay mechanisms to get access to the medium and then send their data on clean air instead of noisy air.

Tip #4 -- Mount the AP above head height. Water attenuates RF signal, human bodies are mostly water.

Tip #5 -- Hand-helds and notebooks/desktops/TV's require different considerations in network design, so keep them on seperate networks. This isn't expenive, I'm using a TP-Link TD-W8960N with TL-ANT2408CL antennas.

My ping results show 20ms for the first packet (WMM wake-up and request for any queued packets at the AP) then between 4ms and 16ms.

A good setup isn't the most expensive setup, it's a well thought out one. My whole hand held network would cost about USD$90.

Just a little feature suggestion as it was asked in another thread.

sense = bloatware...

the fact that my high-tech-desire-hd is fast enough and got enough ram to run bloatware doesnt make me wanna use bloatware...

280mb zip file? seriously? memory overhead that makes you cry? all in the name of cross plattform? no thanks...

funny thing... new users tend to use sense and find it the best os around. the more experience they get with android the more likely it gets they switch to aosp. maybe because they can replace the things the like about sense with stuff from market - or already replaced them... maybe because the prefer the higher speed without all the unneeded memory foodprint...

my signature included it for a while: say no to sense! - of course, freedom of choice and the like - do what you wanna...
[Desire HD Android Development] Setsuna666:

@Drew442:

well, my android is my only device for regular wifi usage. i use a pretty outdated asus wl500gp v1 router - because i run openwrt on it (a router linux distribution) and because it got double ram and double rom compared to other routers when i bought it years back.

of course, its old, only 54mbit and the like. i wouldnt care about this - but the ping time sometimes makes my videos i watch via cifs mounted samba share from my pogoplug 5watt server lag sometimes.... this server runs arch linux btw (:

anyways - do you have suggestion of a good router with wmm but also running openwrt? i reject using stock firmware, since it usually sucks... list of supported devices is here

i also can exchange the minipci wlan card in it - but since it only got one antenna, i am forced to use 54mbit - which is enough for me if the ping limits are right.

so either a hint for a router or (preferd) for a good minipci wlan card with hostap would be appreciated.

i didnt write this as a pm, since this might be interesting for others, too.

Indeed, this is interesting.

I have the same router but have X-WRT installed (Which is based on OpenWRT, but with an added GUI) and had similar problem while watching videos on linux while connected on wifi.

As a solution, I found that using XBMC as a media player did solve the problem.

My media center is running XBMC live and is connected on another X-WRT router linked with WDS to my primary router in order to share my network wirelessly and I don't experienced any issue while watching video.
[Desire HD Android Development] mad-murdock:
the handling of the dsp is the same as with bat fix #7 minus the the one left issue. they switch the dsp of as soon as it gets unused - we switch the dsp off as soon as it gets unused.

to be honest, watching films/tv shows was one of the reasons i upgraded from desire to desire hd (:

Hell did I finally find a 100% reproducable reboot problem. This happened to me sometimes but couldn't find out why...

Now I know. It ain't easy, but it reboots. When (in rapid succession, whilst the phone is asleep) you hit the volume down button and then the power button to turn on the screen. Voila splash screen appears and you what just happened.

This happens sometimes to me when I try to wake up the phone with one hand whilst gripping it too hard. Took me a while to finally find out what it was. But I've managed to do so.

And yes I do have last kmesg for you, just have to attach it via pc. Xda app won't allow it somehow...

[Desire HD Android Development] Dice62:
Honestly, I would stick with cm7 if one thing happens:

The picture frame widget crop box stays rectangular like in sense. Box picture on a rectangle widget looks stupid.

Also, sense just looks nicer, while it is probably a preference. To me, it just looks high end, although cm7 is much faster.

But alas, the widget thing. Picture frame widget is huge to me, and in sense, the frame is perfect, and the pictures are cropped rectangularly, so I keep coming back to it. The weather widget is also nice looking.

Other than that, aosp is nice, gmote + rockplayer is infinitely better than connected media in my opinion.

Lastly, the gallery app! The HTC one is SO MUCH better, and nicer / smoother to browse through than the annoying tilting one in aosp..

Basically, if the HTC gallery app and picture frame Widgets worked in CM7, it would be perfect for me.. lol
[Desire HD Android Development] mad-murdock:
@dice62: you are just not ready yet for aosp - go and play with sense...

hmm - judging from the log and your description, you just found the reboot key combination. on bravo it is hold d-pad + vol down - then press power. since we dont have dpad on ace, its maybe just hold vol down + power...

so, its not a bug, but a feature... to make sure i have to reboot my phone, but i just backup the sdcard which will take about 10 more minutes...

edit: nope! cannot reproduce that... so i got no idea whats going on... your log just reboots on intend - i dont see any issue there... wierd....
