I don't think gapps are included. If you're doing a no-wipe update your original gapps are still there, make sense? If you do a fresh install you will have to flash gapps again.

I think there's a setting in CM Settings that will help this happen, though I can't remember what. Maybe messaging controls on lockscreen?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] mulletcutter:
Ya i figured...that should be a setting in cyanogen :)
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jggimi:
Yes. Am using GPS on #33.

But to get it to work, I had to do a full wipe ... upgrades seem to cause problems.

I have found that the GPS doesn't always pick up the sats, anyway. But if the install was from a fresh wipe, a reboot does the trick. So now, a walk to the car includes a reboot.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] persiansown:
It is an issue with the apps, not with CM7.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Jaskwith:
Problem is, I was trying to let google restore my apps, and so i backed out of the gapps setup, and now it never ran...so I have no google apps... But I have everything setup nicely, so I don't want to re wipe everything, etc... Is there a way to run that program again so that it auto installs gapps or what?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Lakeshow423:
It works on #34, it just takes like 3 -4 min to lock on, I timed it twice :D
[myTouch 4G Android Development] gaww:
You can simply flash the Gapps zip separately. check your downloads folder or Clockwork mirror download folder - should be in there.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] mustang00066:
have those with gps issues done the gps fix?

Mine used to take forever to get a lock in navigation but since I formatted the gps file with root explorer it is MUCH faster.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Nutzzer:
What do you mean by formatting the gps file? If you meant by removing the two SUPL lines, saving and rebooting then yes I did that and still no go.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Phateless:
my gps is working just fine on 33, though haven't tested 34 yet. For those with issues just do a full wipe using fastboot, reflash, give it time to settle on first boot and see if you still have problems.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] clamder:
qik has since been updated and should be working now.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] gaww:
There is an app called GPS Status & Toolbar that I use. It always brings the GPS up quick, plus one of its tools is Manage A-GPS state, which lets you download current Satellite location data.

I find this is especially useful after flying a long distance and trying to use the GPS there. it can take quite a while for it to find them.

Whenever I find initial navigation program start-up is having trouble finding satellites - I run this.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] std396:
Looping?

Is it normal for my phone to just keep looping on the cyanogen logo, over and over and over? Or did i do something wrong? And how do i fix it?

After a clean install, it can take a few minutes - but that is all. What had you just done before restarting it?

Note - popping the battery would not hurt.

You may have to reflash.

ROM Manager can flash both cw2 and cw3 recoveries now? Awesome!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] bobsbbq:
Yes this is really good until the ROM Manager is fully updated.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] gaww:
I think it is already set up.

From his procedure he posted, if you want to go back to old 2.4.1.4 recovery, flash it from the top of the ROM Manager Menu - "Flash Clockwork Recovery"

If you want to flash back to 3.0.0.5 (assuming you have installed his zip file the way he instructed), you go to the bottom menu item "All Clockwork recoveries", and he has put 3.0.0.5 in there - but it appears as 2.5.1.4 - you flash that again they way you did the first time following his instructions.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] TrueBlue_Drew:
Evereything you said is correct except that the old recovery is 2.5.1.2 and it can indeed be reflashed by the top option in Rom manager. Then you can reflash 3.0.0.5 anythime by choosing 2.1.5.4 in the all ClockworkMod recoveries.

Phone won't stay off when charging?

Does anyone else have this problem?

After flashing Nightly_3 last night I wiped battery stats, powered off the device, and plugged in the charger to charge overnight.

Later on I woke up to find my phone sitting in recovery (3.0.0.5). I rebooted (can't power off from recovery), powered off, and - sure enough - it fired up back into recovery. I pulled the battery, put it back in, and it STILL entered recovery.

I was not able to keep my phone powered off while charging. Is this a Clockwork bug? Or MT4G? This is the first time post-root that I've charged while powered off, so I'm not sure when this behavior started. Hard to believe it would be due to the ROM...
[myTouch 4G Android Development] TrueBlue_Drew:
It wont update automaticly but if you choose the top option it will flash 2.5.1.2 so you can install froyo roms.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Christopher3712:
No worries, everyone has this issue. At best guess, i'd think it to be a recovery issue, since I don't recall having that issue previous to CWM 3.xx recoveries. I've been waiting for a fix so I can re-calibrate my battery too. It's not bad enough that I'd downgrade to CM6 to do so, but I like to do it every couple of weeks.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] TrueBlue_Drew:
This is a known bug on the phone/recovery, it isnt rom related. It has been happening since root was had on the mt4g. Just plug in b4 you power off and it will work fine.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] student.driver:
This happens. Two things:

1. From what I've read, the graphic you normally get for charging while the phone is off is a portion of the recovery ROM. CWM doesn't have this function, so it starts up in an unstable version of CWM. Not sure if this is 100% true, but this seems to happen universally.

2. If you have the phone on the charger and shut it off, it should stay off while charging so you can "bump charge" it and reset the battery stats. If you unplug it and plug it back in, it will restart CWM and do what it's already doing.

So yeah, it's a known bug and likely won't be addressed in the immediate future since there are other things he's working on. But we'll see. :)
[myTouch 4G Android Development] mulletcutter:
Yes u cant turn ur phone off and charge it, i believe its a clockwork thing.

Ahh, I was going by this on your post:
[myTouch 4G Android Development] bobsbbq:
I read a post about automatic downloading of the nightly updates. I could not understand on how this is done. I looked in the recovery 3.0.0.5 and I don't see a option to enter this information. Can someone please explain this to me?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] TrueBlue_Drew:
It doesnt prompt for a update anymore because I changed it to 2.5.1.4 instead of the 2.5.1.1 I had originally set it to. It kept calling for a update because our normal version is the .2 and it was showing we had .1 . Now that I changed it to .4 no more prompt for update.

Sorry if its confusing. I have changed it a little here and there to try and make it as easy as possable for the noobs and people having trouble.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] TrueBlue_Drew:
I think he might have been talking about doing it through rom manager but I'm not sure.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] student.driver:
If you have Clockwork Mod Premium, you can go into CyanogenMod Settings (where the normal settings are, it's an additional entry), and select "Update notifications." Click "register," and you will get notifications.

Phone mute?

I believe I've found what I consider to be a major issue! The mute function on the phone app is broken, but ONLY when using wi-fi calling!. Anyone else having this problem?

I first noticed it on gridlocks B#55 build, but I just installed nightly #3, and it's still broken. When using wi-fi calling, the mute button turns red when selected, but the microphone isn't actually turned off. Yet when using the cell network to make a call, the mute button works as expected.

I was on a conference call this morning, and had the phone muted.. or so I thought. After someone asked me to quit coughing into the phone (I'm sick with the flu) I came to realize that mute doesn't actually mean mute. Glad I only coughed and didn't say something off color or offensive.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Homotechual:
how do you flash the new Clockwork using Rom Manager? Where do you put the file in the first place so that Rom Manager will see it. I tried clicking on Flash Other Clockwork Recovery but it's not selectable.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] student.driver:
Which step are you on in the directions? Did you already select the alternate ROM and reboot the first time? Odds are if you downloaded it via the browser on the phone, you'll have to look in "download" on the microSDHC card and find the zip in there. Then flash that and reboot. Once rebooted, you then follow the directions; the 3.0.0.5 recovery takes the place of the 2.5.1.4 entry I believe. Once you select that to flash, you can reboot into recovery and flash CM7.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] TrueBlue_Drew:
Download the zip I posted and install it like you would a rom then go into clockwork and choose "All ClockworkMod Recoveries"

I don't care what anyone says. All these builds over the last couple of weeks eat the battery like crazy. It used to be good. Now it's just not.

Dont play so many games
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Zoltair Wright:
Dude, it's not just the games. I was unplugged for a little under 8 hours today and my battery was down to 25%. For most of that time my phone was in my pocket. I'm on build 33.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Lakeshow423:
You have sync, GPS, running? What apps do you run and how often do you have them set to update? My build #33 lasts me around 13 hours with wifi on the whole day and I'm using the phone alot, not just on standby or babying this phone.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Zoltair Wright:
I run with GPS and sync on, everything else off, brightness auto (although the display was mostly off). I have notifications turned off for everything but SMS and Gmail, and Launcher Pro widgets set to sync once every four hours.

My best theory is that I have a long commute and the signal is pretty spotty where I work, so I loose and regain signal pretty frequently. Even then, the drain is much higher than when I used the same settings with Iced Glacier.

EDIT: Forgot to mention, I don't overclock. I'm not using SetCPU either.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] TrueBlue_Drew:
Just so everyone knows...There has been a update to Rom Manager and it now includes a new CwM v3.0.0.5. I have not had a chance to check and see if nandroids or anything are working through Rom Manager yet though.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] shortskoolbus:
Don't see any update available in market place. What version is the new manager?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] shortskoolbus:
Nevermind, mine updated automatically. Backup from rom manager is working fine too.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] TrueBlue_Drew:
You wont see a update but it will auto-update as soon as you go to flash a recovery or open it up.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] crypysmoker:
Not sure what everyone is on about with the battery. I had mine unplugged from 9pm lastnight till about 5pm this afternoon. Plugged it in at 35% battery and that was after playing a game and on web for a while.

Is there a timed delay for the lock like in the stock mt4g rom? Example: I won't touch or turn on my phone for 5,10,15 minutes and then the lock screen will come on?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] gaww:
Will it allow flashing back to 2.xxx? Also, is it now incorporated in the Nightlies (build #?)?

If the first answer is no, then I will keep yours on the card in case I need to flash back to Stock or ice.

Update - ROM manager just told me there was an update. Did it, and formatted cache (that would not work with 3.xxx before Jan 16 & 22).

Rebooted and flashed 2.5.1.4 and went into recovery - still orange and says 3.0.0.5 (is that still your work???). Tried selecting 2.5.1.2 - and I got green recovery with the same number (what is/was 2.5.1.3?).

So looks like it works - but not with 2.5.1.4 (?).

Just thought of something - it may be necessary to delete Rom Manager and reinstall it to get it so that it does not reinstall 3.0.0.5 when you select 2.5.1.4 - what do you think Drew (although 3.0.0.7 is my current ROM manager version - same as on the market)?

I downloaded both qik and qik video chat for tmobile. Last night after I saw the post here that they were updated. Qik for tmobile does not detect the front facing camera. At least not for me... and the other qik video the option to switch from back to front camera is greyed out. So the front facing camera is not working for me in either of those apps and I didn't install them until after I read they were updated. Have you tested this yourself?

for those who didnt know

i use the stock recovery when i want to turn off to charge up

place it on root of sdcard and flash it from terminal thusly:

flash_image recovery sdcard/oemrecovery.img

then when im done charging, i reflash cwm from rom manager, only takes a few seconds, not like when you first install cwm

p.s. - its inside the zip, the zip is not flashable

[myTouch 4G Android Development] jdkoren:
Speaking of which, after wiping battery stats, should you run the battery all the way down till the phone shuts off? Otherwise I don't see how it can accurately measure battery levels in the future--but then I never did that when I first got the phone, so what do I know?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] shortskoolbus:
Yes. I think it's reinstalling the app, that's why. It's only the first time and you are flashing a new ROM. I don't think its unexpected behaviour?

Does cmw 2.xxx also open up when you plug it in when device is off? If not, you could flash True_Blue's modified Rom Manager and switch back and forth with ROM manager only (although you can also do that with the updated (with 3.0.0.5) Rom manager now.

If it does with all cmw's - maybe Drew can add the stock recovery to his zip.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jdkoren:
I read somewhere that even the with the stock recovery, the phone will boot to recovery if plugged in and powered off. Only difference being that the screen remains off with the stock recovery.

I discovered by accident that in ClockworkMod recovery, pressing the power button turns the screen on and off.

I've experienced excellent battery life with build 34. Was on build 32 previously, I unplugged at 4 am and by the time I got off work it'd be about 50%.

[myTouch 4G Android Development] TrueBlue_Drew:
Yes , no matter what CwM Recovery you use at this time you cant charge with your phone turned off.

My zip has had the stock recovery included for over a week or 2 just for this reason. Here is the link if you havent checked it out lately. I just updated it today due to the changes in Rom Manager

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=944681

That is incorrect. The phone will turn off when plugged in if you have the stock recovery. What you are refering to in your post is the "Fastboot" mode that comes with MySense. When fast boot is checked and you turn off your phone it isn't really off and that is why it is able to turn on so fast. That is why you have to make sure to uncheck it to do things like root.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] gaww:
I forgot - you had all three in there before. Is stock still 2.5.1.1?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] tnpapadakos:
