You might wanna upgrade to the engineering hboot just to make things easier in the future. If you wanna flash radios (which you might have to if you have GPS issues) then this is the best way.

Android 2.3.3 needs another set of Google Apps (the ones from March) than any lower Android version.

Get the latest GApps from March 7th I think they are, flash them, and all is good.

Edit: I should mention, in case you go back, the March-Gapps only work on 2.3.3 or higher, if you go 2.3.2 or lower you need the older Gapps from January or February I think.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] heybobitsme:
No need. CM7 doesn't use them anyway.

You don't need ENG HBOOT, unless you plan on using fastboot. joemm has a thread for all the radios that you can flash through the bootloader. As long as you're Super CID, which you get from the Gfree root method, you're good. But I don't think you need to change the radio.

On a side note, I rooted my wife's G2 this weekend and flashed RC2 without flashing the radio and haven't had any GPS issues with stock radio (for U.S.). The only thing I did was wait several minutes after everything was set up to test GPS and there was no trouble. Flashed RC3 yesterday and again, no issues.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] JaMoFo:
From the [Guide] Subsidy Unlock, SuperCID, and Radio S-OFF thread:

In reference to upgrading my HBOOT, according to the guide you linked me I (assume I) should upgrade to CM7 first then upgrade the HBOOT using gfree v2?

Orrr Do HBOOT upgrade then CM7?

Ty for the help as always.

Help
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] schaggo:
Ugh... use punctuation marks please. Your post is a pain to read and thus a pain to understand what you're on about. Well I did, but still.

Can't help on your problem though, seems like a connection interruption or so. I'd clear Gmail data in the apps menu, wipe cache and Dalvik cache and try again. Maybe reflash Gapps if it's still a no-go.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] FallingEdge:
So I am on RC3 and I apologize if this has been answered but is there a way to remove the 'T-Mobile | Get More...' text from the status bar and the lock screen? I know that it was possible in 6.1.1 but cannot find it in CynogenMod Settings.

Thank you.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] G1ForFun:
Lol whaaaat? I have T-mobile also and I have never seen that in the status bar or on the lock screen. Can you screen shot this and post it?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sabez:
I believe what he is referring to is on the top.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] G1ForFun:
You have this too? What is causing that? Is it reading that from the sim or something?

Just weird that I have never seen that and I am a T-mobile user as well.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] chaose:
I installed the RC3 yesterday and I noticed that the battery is draining a lot faster than what I'm used to in Enom's froyo ROM. I took a look at the battery statistics and noticed that Wi-Fi Calling (the tmobile app that allows calls to be made over wifi) took up 16%. This is unusal because I defintiely did not have wifi-calling on or set up. I then went to applications to try and force stop it and it doesn't work. Is there a way to turn this off without uninstalling the app?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] G1ForFun:
Yes, and its called app freezing. There may be an app that lets you do it for free, but I am unaware of what it is.

I know for a fact that Titanium Backup Pro has the freeze feature. I use it on almost everything that I do not use on my phone. It's awesome knowing that those apps will never open in the background by themselves and eat juice.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] chaose:
got it, thanks
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ratchetrizzo:
Go get a new simcard.

There was a batch of old sims that had that message in them.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ChronoReverse:
So far RC3 is working well. Hopefully the battery life will be as amazing as it was with RC2.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] gravis86:
You can freeze an app via command line in the Terminal. Paul from MoDaCo posted how to do it back in the temp-root days if you forgot.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] izanagi:
Can confirm this ROM is working beautifully, I've had it running for a day now with about 6 hours of use and haven't found any bugs or issues and have been EXTREMELY pleased with batt life.

I'm also running the screen 'resolution' at 200 instead of 240 pixels; no problems and it's nice to have the extra real-estate.

Yayyy!!! (I was missing my cyanogenmod updates!)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] KiNG OMaR:
It's a matter of preference really...

I uninstalled setCPU and opted to use the built in one in CMSettings. They both work exactly the same... IF you don't use profiles. From my experience setCPU profiles just eat away (slowly, but surely) at the battery running in the background.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Vlad83:
lol if you're going for longest battery life you'll surely be disappointed if overclocking to 1500. No more than 1017 if you value battery.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] izanagi:
I also loaded the latest kernel updates from:

http://droidbasement.com/db-blog/?p=1698

I was having intermittent signal loss (a kernel issue, not RC3) so things are working even better (somehow).
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Vlad83:
Intermittent signal loss is most likely due to radio, not kernel...

Since upgrading to RC3 Gmail keep forclosing and doesnt open at all. Even when I reinstalled rc3 it didn't work. I installed it using the market and it still keeps forclosing. I just upgraded to rc4 and it still doesn't work.

I'm gonna keep holding out for 7.1 stable lol. I'm still on 6.1.1 and its so fast and stable I can't justify leaving. Especially when Gingerbread doesn't really offer that much in terms of functionality over froyo. I love me some Froyo.

I guess that's why. I had RC1 when my last phone died. Replaced it and still stock, but thinking of doing the jump tonight.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] LGS1231:
I just updated to RC3 and I recently got my GPS fixed. I don't want to risk flashing RC4 and have something else go wrong cause my device seems perfect right now. But I want to know if RC4 is a SIGNIFICANT improvement over RC3 and whether I should just do it? Thanks!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Wunako:
RC4 already? lol these guys work fast, yea i would like to know if there are any improvements especially in the video, both recording and mostly the playback?

So far RC3 has been great WAY better then RC1 and 2

Not significant...

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Wunako:
Thanks just updated it
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sinistersai4d4d:
Well there's a reason these are nightlies and candidates. I just flashed CM7 RC 4 for the hell of it after reading Cyanogens post about it being the most stable iteration of CM7 and likely the last RC. I'm glad I waited til most of the kinks were worked out (GPS, Gmail etc). So far so good. We'll see if it's as stable as CM6. I'm more concerned about stability than more and more tweaks. I think Android, as a whole, should continue to focus more on stability. iOS obsesses on stability and ignores customization. For a long time Android was all about customization and put stability second.. so it's nice to see that Froyo and Gingerbread seem to have focused on both.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sabez:
You can install over RC2. Just do a nandroid backup just in case though. If you're having problems do a full wipe.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] MishXT:
ok going to try that now, cheers for that
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] chaose:
i'll probably just wait for the stable release of 7.1. too much flashing can really throw the battery stays out of wack
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cwirth7:
I can attest to the headphone issue. Have to reboot sometimes to get music to play through headphones. Annoying... Looks like we gotta wait till 4.1
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
The battery stats to my understanding are part of the rom not the actual phone. So whether you install one rom or a million each rom has to be ran through the paces to produce its own stats?

On a side note, seems its back to just saying 3g all the time yuck.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] rdulay8:
coming from RC1, i did a nandroid backup, wiped data/cache, and did a fresh install of RC4. upon first boot as soon as i enabled wifi, it reverted to a bootloop. i did a quick search and found that a battery pull solved that problem. however, now the lockscreen and home button no longer work; they worked before the bootloop. what do i do? i already tried downloading RC4 from a different source and reflashing and the same thing happened.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
That same exact stuff happened to me cause I was not letting it sit for fifteen minutes. Even if it did that one time, I would reinstall and go get lunch and u should be fine.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mewgim:
well i guess i would stay for a while in RC2 because of the problems encountered in RC 3 & 4 :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
Can anyone else confirm that the h is gone from the status bar and now just says 3g all the time?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sparksco:
Try selecting format system patition under mounts and storage befor you flash the rom, it's a know issue that the roms have issues formating the system correctly with cm7 roms
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
I always do that regardless just feel like it makes it cleaner lol. I flashed the new radio then back to the latest tmo official and now its back to working in the statusbar for some weird reason...

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] izanagi:
Ya, when you do reflash (to fix your wifi issues) you can do the trick that's been floating around here, enable the wifi then immediately reboot your phone so it powers up with the wifi enabled.

I've done that since RC2 and I haven't had any wifi problems.

The animations both are working for me. Make sure in spare parts you have both speeds set to normal and also try flashing the rom again right on top of what you have (therefore not losing any personal data or settings).

Finally Fixed my GPS on CM7!

I'm so excited! I finally fixed my GPS on CM7 RC4. My GPS had not been working (would do absolutely nothing ... would turn on and not fix on a single satellite). To fix it, I simply flashed a new radio using the first radio here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=970809&highlight=radio

using the simple first method (rename zip file, place it on sd, reboot in bootloader)

I didn't even need to wipe, clear cache, reflash ROM or anything. Just rebooted my phone afterwards, ran GPS test, and BAM, instantly found a gazillion satellites. Yay!!!
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dustrho:
Just curious, where do you live and what radio did you flash? I'm around Chicago, and haven't had the best of GPS luck with any ROM on my G2. I've tried three different radios (.26, .17 and .27), and sometimes it works but sometimes it doesn't.

Anyone know if Wireless Tether App works in RC4? only thing keeping me from CM7
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] sinistersai4d4d:
Nope. Hasn't since CM6. I've been using the built in wifi hotspot feature for months. No issues. I did go over 5gbs once and T-mobile sent me a text and throttled my data.

I even called tmobile about tethering and they said they said for the time being tethering under 5gbs would cause no disruption in service FOR THE TIME BEING. She implied that they are working on how to implement their 14 dollar tethering plan on stock android devices like the Nexus S and G2.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Latoc:
That's exactly the kind of process I use to make sure my roms work as fine as they can.

I'm part of the people that NEVER have any problem with ANY rom,

my GPS ALWAYS works, my mms ALWAYS arrives, etc...

Maybe it's because I'm old school, always reflashing the radio after I flash a new rom, must be from the HTC Hero days...

End word: don't be sloppy with your installs, always flash roms the right way, reboots and patience are the way to go.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] bonstio:
Hi all.

I run CM7 on a HTC Desire and it rocks. I kept up with all the nightlies and am now testing out RC4.

I've had a problem though for as long as I can remember and need some help fixing it. When the screen goes off, it's kinda hard to get it to come back on. The power button makes the soft keys light up but I always have to resort to some combo of clicking the trackpad, opening and closing the slider and pressing the power button. It always comes on eventually but it seems buggy. It makes answering calls near impossible without setting use trackpad to answer.

Anyone else? Known bug? Any workaround?

Cheers.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dargocitfer:
There are a couple of ways you can eliminate this problem:

1) Turn overclocking down to 1Ghz or below

2) Turn off the Screen off/on animations

3) Set the governor on your overclocking to "Interactive".

I had this problem all the time, until I discovered the magic of "Interactive". I'm not monkeying around with "Screen Off" profiles, or anything else. Just set the governor to "Interactive", and now it wakes up every time. And I'm OC'd to the full 1516Mhz. :D
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Nitemare3219:
Any idea how interactive differs from ondemand?

I'm also assuming you're running the stock CM7 kernel and not pershoot's because I don't see that governor there.

Minor Question -- Blinking Notification Light

Since nightly 32 and now RC4, I notice that the little notification light used to blink for email and now remains solid. Is this true for others? I know this seems like a minor nit to pick; I'm just curious when I see visual changes. Is there some buried setting which deals with this in the CM settings? I've tried to find it but cannot. I'll have to go check out the active profile settings next because I read something in a search about that.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] dorezen:
i just upgraded from rc1 and back on that version, i was able to change the color of the notification icons but im unable to find it in rc4. has this been removed completely for performance issue?
