I have some problems/bugs in my RC2 installation. Here are my steps:

1. Wipe data/cache, wipe dalvik, format system.

2. Flash RC2, without reboot flash Kernel 4.1 (4.2 hangs on HTC logo). Reboot.

These are the problems I found:

a) On-Off animations does not work (with or without JIT). They worked until the last rom without FM radio (#13?).

b) Cannot set overclock CPU values, they do not appear (Settings - CyanogenMod settings - Performance - CPU Settings - Min/Max CPU frequency). I have to use overclock widget to do so.

I read people have this all working. Is it only me, or is there more people with my problems?

Thanks in advance for your answers. :)
[Wildfire Android Development] zexcrazy:
Turn on animations, turn on JIT, go to recovery, wipe dalvik, reboot. Should work, worked for me.

As for cpu overclock settings i think they dont work for anyone yet.
[Wildfire Android Development] GigiAUT:
Hmmm. Maybe my phone is on it's way out. I've tried Nightly 11, 13, 14 and RC2 but I keep getting reboots, app crashes, force closes and battery pulls. Tried out with the 4.2 kernel as well and formatted my SD card because CM7 said it was damaged. But even without the card inside, I have the same problems.
[Wildfire Android Development] Alex_GP:
Sound bug after 7-8 photos.

I had Wildpuzzle before, I wiped data, cleaned cache (did everything mentioned), flashed RC2, soundbug, back to Wildpuzzle.

The Radio is nice, I find it funny that BT need to be enabled, but if that`s the way it need to work, it`s all nice.
[Wildfire Android Development] rahulkrathod:
i had similar problems with battery.

i installed latest radio then flashed cm #13 over it.

charge battery full then clear battery stats or delete data/system/batterystats.bin

from adb.

reboot let the battery drop a little and then charge it full again.

now let the battery drain till less than 5 percent then charge full.

when the battery if charged 100% check if the voltage is around or above 4200mV. (install osmonitor to see this)

Do not use a task killer.

end apps by clicking back button till you get to the home screen than using the home key for once.

check if unwanted services are running and kill them. (the only service thats running for me is the keyboard service)

i get around 2 days of backup with moderate usage now. couple of hours on wi-fi, around 2 hours of calling some texts and so on...

Edit : using 4.1 kernel, no over clock, jit on.
[Wildfire Android Development] _PuMa_:
I can't believe it!! It worked!! :eek:

I've been trying (before your answer) similar things about enabling/disabling animations and JIT, rebooting, and wiping... and none of them worked. :confused:

Anyway, using #14 it worked once, but had to reboot later and did not work never again. :p

Thank you very much for your fast answer.
[Wildfire Android Development] Formiak:
It worked for me too but I had one problem , when i reboot my phone it stops working.
[Wildfire Android Development] zexcrazy:
Whait i didnt, catch you now. It worked, but when you rebooted it stopped working. Just ckecked its working fine for me, but i keep it disabled.

What can i say, repeat the process again.
[Wildfire Android Development] rahulkrathod:
dalvik in internal memory --> jit off--> always works for me.

jit on--> animations off.
[Wildfire Android Development] Shiftypants:
Running smoothly.

Still curious as to why it's smoother with jit off but better in linpack with it.
[Wildfire Android Development] genericmann:
Can you please confirm:

If i don't have DT app2sd my Davlik Cache is always in internal memory ?

I tried enabling animations then wiping Davlik, as written in previous posts, but this does not make animations work. Any other sugestions?
[Wildfire Android Development] Tetractys:
RC2 vs Nightly#15

Please, how i have to consider the nightly build #15? first evolution of RC2 or a new branch? Nightly #15 seems newer than RC2 (regarding timestamps tough)...
[Wildfire Android Development] C4NCER:
Does anyone else have a problem with the beeps when changing the ringer volume using the volume keys?

For me the beeps dont always play, and when they do work there's a second or so of static afterwards before the sound system 'powers down' again.
[Wildfire Android Development] kenchi27:
I'm really having a hard time installing this RC2. Nightly buzz 0 installed perfectly with GPS and screen animation working. But when i trired updating to this, it's stuck on the HTC logo. SD is partitioned. Radio is stock 3.35.20.10

Any thoughts?
[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
Flash Jacob's kernel 4.1
[Wildfire Android Development] shann_mishra:
RC2 is working perfect for me. But can anyone tell me how to get rid of ads in free apps? I already flashed ad blocker zip file given in some thread.
[Wildfire Android Development] cybertyk:
To remove ads buy the software. Developers work hard on some apps and they should be paid.
[Wildfire Android Development] Mikrouwel:
+1 ^^ :D

Mikrouwel :)
[Wildfire Android Development] :
You first need to sign into Google and make sure market works. Also, set install applications from unknown source. Things should work. I had the same problem and found the above flow works for me.
[Wildfire Android Development] Formiak:
I charged my phone yesterday.When I went sleep I had 99 % , when I woke up I have 30%.Have to clear batt stats today and see what it'll give .
[Wildfire Android Development] melvinchng:
I have this problem before, first day 90%, second day 19% left...
[Wildfire Android Development] GigiAUT:
Thanks for the heads up on kernel 4.1 guys. I flashed it and I haven't had any issues so far.
[Wildfire Android Development] nhnt11:
Went to bed 99%. Woke up still 96%. Downloaded rc2, 88%. After 12 hours (2 hrs music, occasional checking mail, maps, chat, couple pics, few calls, flashed rc2 etc) battery died. Not bad IMO.
[Wildfire Android Development] topyli:
The nightlies simply continue to build on what we already have in rc2. No new branch.

Don't expect dramatic changes from the nightlies at this stage. CM7 is most likely in feature freeze, and development focuses on fixing the remaining bugs for the stable release, to ensure our phones are awesome. :)
[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
Battery life has definitely taken a hit for me in RC2. Got to 100% 20 hours ago, and, just text messaging, 30 minutes of surfing, 20 minutes of angry birds, it is at 35%. I do not even keep my data connection on all the time. Just when required :/

Will probably try wiping and reinstalling, along with a clear battery stats. Its not worrying, but, its certainly far lower than in the nightlies, where, in a similar usage pattern, I could easily get atleast 2-2.5 days.
[Wildfire Android Development] infectedtr:
it is the same here..

i installed kernel 4.1.. data seems OK..

i must wait more time to identify OK!

edit:

it is more stable from kernel 4.2..

No data and wifi bug..

GPS works

JIT is off (when jit enabled, screen animations doesn't work)

battery icon is variable.. i installed inexus theme..
[Wildfire Android Development] leekaiwei:
I see that there is an overclocking option within CyanogenMod's settings, can I still use SetCPU?
[Wildfire Android Development] -Howard-:
Yes you can still use setcpu and im sure the other overclocking option built in does not work yet anyway.

and to everyone else battery life is all good here it seems the same as average if not better for once
[Wildfire Android Development] Langoniery:
Extremely low battery life, when i upgraded from rc1 to rc2. Like a Day, with wifi perm on. But with RC1 it was 2+ days. Pity.

I have 90% after 1 hour with display off, 1-3minute call and perm wifi on:-/ pretty bad.

Also it seems that it is charging very fast.. like 50% to 100% in less than hour...
[Wildfire Android Development] NickHu:
GPS doesn't work with Kernel 4.2... Will try Kernel 4.1 :)
[Wildfire Android Development] daddyspud:
if gps still dnt work try chaning radio did the job 4 me to the new one
[Wildfire Android Development] btrst:
i am wondering if FM radio could work on cm6.1?
[Wildfire Android Development] kenchi27:
Thanks, but i've already done that upon installing nightly buzz 0. But when i tried to flash the RC2. It doesn't boot and get stuck on just the HTC logo.
[Wildfire Android Development] kevin2516:
Rc2 includes kernel 4.2 so you have to flash 4.1 again.
[Wildfire Android Development] mishooo:
Oh wrong button.

However what is wrong with karnel 4.2 ? I`ve been using it since it was released and it is fine
[Wildfire Android Development] kenchi27:
So, after flashing RC2 don't reboot until i've flashed the 4.1?
[Wildfire Android Development] neoazrael:
mishoo as i understood from my experiences v4.2 doesn't work for everyone.

kenchi yeah if you are one of those unlucky users like me just flash cm7 and before reboot flash the kernel v4.1 too if not you won't be able to see what is next after the bootloop :D it's awful but that's the truth
[Wildfire Android Development] acaptake:
I'm not so sure about this, maybe it's just me but RC2 seems to drain battery a lot more than RC1. Anyone can confirm?
[Wildfire Android Development] Formiak:
Yesterday it drops down from 90 to 30 percent in night , but today it drops from 95 to 79 . So better.Hope it'll improve with upcoming days.
[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
4.2 sets the CPU Clocks at 19 MHz - 768 MHz by default, and, at that speed, many phones cannot boot up.

Should be fixed soon though, as per from what I read in the CM Review page.
[Wildfire Android Development] alangrig:
I guess this is not the kernel's problem v4.2. My wildfire has never got failed to boot.
[Wildfire Android Development] Bi0haZarD:
maybe you are doing it right hehe ;)
[Wildfire Android Development] alangrig:
Well every time I do clean install and even initial kernel works great for a half day without setcpu intervention.
[Wildfire Android Development] geigi:
I don't get the screen off animation to work...

tried clean install

tried turn screen animation on + jit on and clear dalvic cache... but doesn't work for me

running RC2 + Kernel V.4.1 + a2sd and dalvic cache on sd

has anybody an idea or a solution?
[Wildfire Android Development] alangrig:
Strange. Installed rc2. Installed a2sd. Installed gapps and adblock. Even sudden battery pull doesn't break crt animation.
[Wildfire Android Development] geigi:
do you also have dalvik cache on sd?
[Wildfire Android Development] Bi0haZarD:
if u have dalvik on sd screen off animation will not work at all, should be kept in internal memory unless u have class 6 sd card or even better class for better performance.
[Wildfire Android Development] alangrig:
Sorry mate, but that's nonsense. I use a2sd dark tremor one all the time, crt animation always works for me. I usually do clean install, reboot flash a2sd. Enable it, reboot, zipalign, reboot and then install whatever you want. I have SD class 4 card. It's minimum requirements, however even class 2 works fine.
[Wildfire Android Development] geigi:
Animations also still don't work with cache back on the phone.... i'll try again a fresh install i think
[Wildfire Android Development] Bi0haZarD:
mate it's not nonsense because it's similar case with 4.1 and 4.2 kernel, some devices work and some don't. (depends a lot hardware not software)

your device happen to "like" screen on/off animations

My device likes screen on/off animations only first boot after a2sd resetcache

if i reboot sometimes stays but mostly i lose it.

And I also believe that the procedure doesn't change anything. How can you break the animation from only a reboot then?

And also next time try to speak with better manners and if you knew that ur procedure actually works, why havent you replied to sooooo maaaanyyy posts regarding this screen off animation thing and help others????
[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
It works for me with JIT off only, DTApps2SD Flashed, but, with dalvik cache on phone memory only. JIT On breaks it, but, because for me, JIT is far more important than the off animation, it doesnt matter really.
[Wildfire Android Development] geigi:
i think i found the bad boy.... after installing the gapps it doesn't work anymore... i used the newest one

EDIT: Same with old gapps gapps-gb-20110120-signed
[Wildfire Android Development] Bi0haZarD:
gapps must be installed together with rom in one go, before 1st reboot
[Wildfire Android Development] Bi0haZarD:
with me its exactly the same case but with jit on and vm heap 32 dalvik in phone memory and it just works until reboot but also sometimes stays for even second reboot.

and i'm always using same configuration and same apps.
[Wildfire Android Development] geigi:
yes i tried it without gapps and then fresh with the different gapps without reboot. tried again fresh without gapps and it doesn't work anymore....

it's really randomly
[Wildfire Android Development] Bi0haZarD:
Try alsgrigorjevs "technique" as he seems to be far more experienced than all of us but doesn't want to share "his secret ways" above and post ur feedback, and if it actually works, u should also thank him.

And Linux is supposed to be open source, GPL if anybody bothered to read it...we are supposed to share information between us, not just take credit for what we have achieved.
[Wildfire Android Development] NickHu:
I fixed it by flashing the same radio I already had (latest).

It's apparently a common bug affecting people who installed certain nightlies with broken GPS/Radio (?) files?

I don't know, but flashing a fresh radio fixes it.

Does anyone else notice the radio is kinda crappy..? I mean, it's very hissy and signal's poor. Maybe it's just where I live (Warks).
[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
It's similar for me as it was in stock. Some areas, its extremely poor, but, in open areas (and some closed ones), its extremely clear, like listening to your own music files. As you said, its probably your area. :p
[Wildfire Android Development] topyli:
I have no big complaints about call quality, except that SIP calls are quite quiet compared to GSM ones, and the volume control doesn't work.
[Wildfire Android Development] C4NCER:
The reception for me seems about the same but the volume that comes out my headphones is much louder, I can only really listen at the minimum volume and even then it's still pretty loud.
[Wildfire Android Development] Langoniery:
Hmm weird. I was reinstalling CM7 RC2 made a clean install after wipe. I started to charge my phone and it shows mi 50% then i rebooted phone with charger pluged in and it suddenly showed me 81% battery. Then i pluged out charger and restart. Battery is on 70%. It is defenitely a problem....
[Wildfire Android Development] doomed151:
It seems that some of you are having problems with gapps.

Here a flashable zip I've used personally for a while, now updated:

CM7-Essentials-v3.zip (16.7 MB)

Based on gapps-gb-20110307-signed

Apps from gapps-mdpi-20110301-signed added

Flashable anytime, no bootloops

Ad blocker.

I will update it when there's an update to the gapps.

If you haven't had any problems before you can try this out too.

NOTE: Those who downloaded v2 please refrain from using it. Get v3 instead. Fixed bootloop.
[Wildfire Android Development] GlemSom:
Using RC2, my wildfire gets about 6 FPS in neocore - which in my eyes seems kinda slow?

Shouln't CM7 perform better then that?
[Wildfire Android Development] 3xeno:
Tried with other ROMs? Although I have never tried Neocore personally, one thing I have learnt is that the Wildfire is a bad phone for benchmarkers due to its extremely dated hardware.

Personally, I have only used Linpack, and there, CM7 is among the fastest of ROM's available.

Lastly, benchmark scores don't mean a thing really as I said. Its the real world usability and feel which matters.

It's a real hot ROM. Keep on guys.

[Wildfire Android Development] ChrisPNE:
I'm not sure if this is just me but my home button doesn't seem to work. When I press it the haptic feedback works but neither a short or long press produces any further functionality. Am I just missing something obvious in the settings? In the ADW Launcher settings I have it selected to return to default homescreen with short press and long press to give recent apps but it still doesn't seem to work.
[Wildfire Android Development] cjimenez1010:
Hi,

by the way, i'm using RC2, i notice the problem on google talk and i had to reduce the fonts to extra small in Spare Parts app. Also, anybody knows how to change the options for the notification led? it's red all the time and doesn't blink...

Thanks

has the problem been fixed. havent flashed CM in a while.

when i used to press lock screen there was a flash of static. is that still happening?
[Wildfire Android Development] daddyspud:
is any ones facebook snyc working???????????
[Wildfire Android Development] arco68:
It's fixed in the new kernel, included in most likely the next nightly. Together with working native USB tethering, trackball wake and a whole lot of other fixes. A quite huge overhaul of the buzz vendor config was committed today, which should sort a few issues. Important note, the HCDR kernels will NOT be compatible with it, as the new roms will be built with native support for USB and not compatible as before. So anyone flashing HCDR kernels will loose USB support.
[Wildfire Android Development] -Howard-:
I saw the overhaul got approved, will this be present in#19 then or is it is #18 already? :) but RC2 is serving me well atm ;)
[Wildfire Android Development] arco68:
It's not in #18, but most probably will be in #19.
[Wildfire Android Development] NickHu:
Go into the facebook app, Menu -> Settings -> Sync
[Wildfire Android Development] NickHu:
Don't count on it.

I'm guessing #19 will be broken/won't build.

I just built CM7 with the new changes locally and installed. No problems so far (build + install). Restoring my backup from Titanium.

Edit:

1. Enabling 3G reboots my phone, trying to get a logcat and analyze it

2. We now have a saner CPU min & max

3. The CPU min/max frequencies are now available for customizing (UI fixes)

4. smartass scheduler is the default

[Wildfire Android Development] guy968:
I hope this is the right place to post...

can anybody help explain, please-

I have a Wildfire with SD partitioned.

Have been using WP v0.1. (Initial storage after flash was 166MB, and with ALL my apps, it dropped to 122MB.)

I have just flashed cm7 (with kernel 4.1) - it performs well and is pretty stable, and when I first checked "storage", I had 173MB free out of 175 total. I backed up ROM with ROM manager (or so I thought), but didn't realise that phone didn't boot into recovery, so I lost that install.

Went back to WP to "fetch" my apps with My Backup pro and so had to reflash cm7. This time I had 146MB out of 175.:confused: I then loaded about 2/3 of my apps, and the free storage dropped to 51MB:eek:

I have re partitioned the SD card and allowed external storage on CM settings. In "Manage applications", only 10 or so apps are listed as available to move to SD, and of those, 3 wont move ("there is not enough space" error). I can't force move any of the others. I am not sure whether the apps I can move are going to the extension or the .androidsecure folder on the SD.

Can anyone tell me:

1) What is going on?

2) Why CM7 uses so much memory compared to WP (is this normal)?

3) Is it normal that only some apps go to the ext partition? (if that's where they are going)

4) Should "Settings>applications>manage>move to SD" place apps on the extension, or in the .androidsecure folder (main SD)?

5) What has happened to ROM manager?

Many thanks for anyone's help!

[Wildfire Android Development] Bi0haZarD:
It's stable for me even with latest nightlies after CM7 RC2 #17 and #18

Are you using default CM7 kernel? If yes try Jacobs 4.1 overclocking kernel. Stability will come back as it should.
[Wildfire Android Development] biggary:
recommendation?

Would anyone recommend this rom for everyday use? good battery? stable? no bugs? I just want a rom i can show off :)
[Wildfire Android Development] NickHu:
Cyanogen mod is the fastest ROM at the moment, and the only one running gingerbread, but it's not flashy/for showing off. It goes with the basic unix principle of "Do one thing, do it well". If you want to show off, install some crappy sense.
[Wildfire Android Development] nhnt11:
Somehow most of my friends are more impressed by cyanogenmod than sense :D :D
