Working great so far!

Been playing around with CM7.0.0 on my Slide all morning now and it has been working great. Love some of the new features. Thank you so much! (=

The only issue I had was getting GPS to work at first. I read someone else say flash the latest radio even if you have it already after installing CM7 with a full wipe... That fixed the issue.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] nobreak1970:
CM7 is working flawlessly for me with SetCPU and 844mhz max/245 min.

Except for Wifi calling...I try it and I get a reboot

...
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Sizzlechest:
Do you have the latest radio installed?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] nobreak1970:
I do not...I knew I forgot something.:)
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] nikol4s:
You're welcome. Yeah, this has fixed my problem several times.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sxufeastkilla:
Howz the signal strenght on this rom? Do you get better signal than on cm6...???
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] MusicMan374:
Signal does not depend on the ROM, it depends on the radio firmware version you have flashed. You need the latest 7.15 radio for this ROM to function fully.

Device no longer recognized by ADB

For some reason after flashing the RC1 ADB no longer sees my device..

Any suggestions? I'm at work on a Win7 machine without admin rights. :mad:
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sherman8or:
Make sure debugging is checked on your phone
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] mslamph:
Thanks for the reply. Debugging is active. I just switched from CM 6.1 to the 7.0 RC, I was literally using ADB to pull apks just before backing up and re-flashing...so like 20 minutes ago.

When I try to list devices in ADB I get the standard "List of devices attached" and then just a blank list, then back to the command line. Not sure why this would be. ADB is properly installed and so are the drivers for my phone.

I've tried all the standard stuff to no avail. Ugh!

I forgot to mention, I can use ADB when in recovery.. Why wouldn't I be able to use it from within the ROM? I'm rooted with S-Off. Thanks in advance for any ideas.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] PcFish:
Same thing happened to me when I went to CM7. Reinstall the drivers on your PC then it should pick up.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] mslamph:
D'oh, that's what I was afraid of. I'm at work with no admin priveleges and my awesome boss who installs things for me isn't here today. Guess it'll have to wait until I get home.

It looks like I can't actually see anything when shelling in either. Hopefully reinstalling drivers will fix that as well.

Thanks all for the quick answers.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sherman8or:
Have u tried restarting the computer? Or plugging it into a different usb port on the computer?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] banzairx7:
Finding 7.0 to be a bit buggy. I get a random reset about once a day. PowerAmp music player randomly locks up when connecting to the streaming bluetooth in my car. I've had several occasions where I have had to reboot to get bluetooth working also.

It's using a lot more memory. On 6.1 I'd never go below 200mb free, on 7.0 it consistently is down to ~160mb free.

Some minor niggles to do with the signal strength and battery displays. On 6.1 I could have it display the actual number associated with these. db for the signal strength and battery percentage left. I can't seem to find that option in 7.0.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] SefEXE:
I know you said minor, but....

"CM7 is still a work in progress. Some of your favorite features from CM6 might not be there yet, but this is our first checkpoint release and we’ve still got work to do. We also plan to put a bit more visual polish “out of the box” on it." -Cyanogenmod

However, at the same time, I do hope a lot of the features make it over safely and soon. :D
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] robkoehler:
is your sdk totally up to date?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] perknite:

[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Sizzlechest:
Are you also doing a wipe? Make sure you're using the right version of Google Apps. It's the one from 2011.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] petraman:
You've flashed the 7.15 radio, right?

Btw whenever I switch my phone to wifi or back it doesn't automatically sign on to google (ie no green bars). I know some people are having the same problem so what I do is first load any random webpage, then sign in to google talk and it works fine
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] JTownBrewer:
Are you flashing the correct version of GAPPS?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] banzairx7:
I ran into the same thing. To get it working I had to wipe the phone to the factory defaults, then install the ROM, let the phone boot completely to where you get the android welcome screen, reboot into recovery mode and install the latest radio and the gapps packages. If I didn't do it in that order I would end up in infinite loops.

I'm back to 6.1 now. 7.0 ran way to slow and crashed a lot for me. Others are having better luck.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] atlmatt:
I am getting a lot of random reboots..

I wiped before I loaded the RC1, But I did not run the BOOT patch for the custom MTD. Maybe i should have??? i will try again.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] MusicMan374:
Your custom mtd isn't custom anymore. It's back at the stock. If you don't flash your boot patcher after flashing a ROM or kernel, and boot the phone, your partitions revert back to their original sizes. You have to completely redo custom MTD partitions now.

I have had a seamless experience with cm7, from build 1 of the nightlies. I wonder why so many have so many problems. I flash it in this order: CM7 rom>miguelthekernel (smartass kernel)>gapps>boot patcher (for custom mtd partitions) and then reboot. Has never failed for me.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sherman8or:
This Rom won't play wma files.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] MusicMan374:
Does any android rom? Furthermore, why are you using wma? Wma is some of the most hardcore bull**** I've encountered.

WMA is a closed source file type, and without the licensing from microsoft (which is rarely given), codecs for wma can't be bundled with android. Use mp3. Even m4a I think works.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] clowery4384:
Ok new bug for you guys. Whenever I try to use wifi calling I get force restart
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sherman8or:
The stock rom for the slide plays wma and usually every phone i have does cause i have used the same alert tone for years. I saved it onto my memory card from one of my old windows phones and have used it ever since, so it would be nice to still be able to use it.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] MusicMan374:
And you're on RC1? Not happening to me, I doubt anyone else either. Do you have the latest radio installed? 7.15? Check your baseband version in about phone.

Edit, however, tonight I have been having wifi calling go in and out. Like it'll say it's on, but my phone will say no signal and not send or receive texts, until I disable and reenable wifi calling. It's not crashing my phone though.

Ah, T-Mobile probably got the licensing for it. If you google around you might be able to find codecs for it that will work on android, but I'm not sure. Convert that tone to either .mp3 or .ogg. .ogg is the ringtone standard for android, not sure if you can set an mp3 as a ringtone or not.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] alecubero:
Everything is working great for me! except for GPS. It just do nothing. I looked at logcat and the only messages the phone is generating are WIFI related.

My baseband version is: 47.63.35.21U_7.15.35.16 which I believe is the latest.

Any ideas?

GPS works fine with any of the leaked 2.2 stock roms
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Sizzlechest:
Upgrade to the Rev 5 nightly. GPS is working for me ever since rev 4 plus they have the new battery indicator as an option. I'm holding off installing 6 since I'm worried something might have broke when they integrated WiMax, which we don't use.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] MusicMan374:
They only integrate WiMax for phones that have the hardware for it, I believe it's a kernel-level modification. It shouldn't affect our devices. I'm going to wipe and flash the build 6, since it looks like if I stay on RC1 I'm gonna lag behind in all the features :P
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sherman8or:
Where is the option to stop the phone from vibrating every time a call is connected?
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] Irisservice:
Where can I find new battery indicator
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] sherman8or:
Interface - status bar tweaks
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] MusicMan374:
Settings>call settings (near the bottom of the list, should be a check box for vibrate on answer and vibrate on end)

The battery percentage wasn't added to the status bar until build 5 of the nightlies, it isn't present in RC1.

There is however, an option in the lockscreen cmsettings menu to always show the battery status on the lockscreen, not just while charging.
[EVO 4G General] starplaya93:
So I bought tasker months ago and barely ever used it. It's soo ridiculously powerful but i'm way to lazy to take the time to get a hold of the very steep learning curve (at least for me).

I really want to utilize one of these days because it's really a remarkable app that shows off the power of our phones.

I was just curious if any of you use it and what some of your favorite profiles are.

Also, is there some sort of 'how to use tasker for dummies" out there that I could check out? lol
[EVO 4G General] coiledwire:
Tasker does have a learning curve. I think it would be easier if they had a desktop environment to create profiles on, but I digress.

Yes, I was like you and bought the app and shelved it since I didn't have time to mess with it. I ran into some free time and dusted the app off. This is what profiles I've setup so far.

1) GPS turns on when apps that I've designated (ex. maps, navi, weather, etc) are launched. GPS turns off when the apps close.

2) Battery <5% turns screen brightness all the way down (coupled with setCPU with an under-clock with the same criteria will have my phone last as along a possible for emergencies). There's more functionality I want to add to this profile.

3) When a headset is plugged in, it sets my media volume and pulls up a menu of music apps for me to select.

4) Home Wifi (overly complicated). I search for the cell tower that I get reception at home (as long as I'm not in airplane mode). When in range of it, the phone search for my network SSID. When found Wifi turns on and connects to my home wifi and turns off the cell tower search (so if my cell signal goes to crap, wifi stays on). When I leave out of my network SSID, wifi shuts off and cell tower search is turned on. This code required some debugging as it wasn't so stable at first attempt.

5) Find phone (my favorite). I can send a text to my phone from any other cell phone. When the text is received, the phone will turn on GPS to find the coordinates and will return a text message to the originating cell phone with a link to google maps location (its bad ass!). Once the message is sent, the speaker volume gets turned all the way up and an mp3 of my choosing gets played (you can bet its an long, annoying, loud, and noticeable song). The final straw is the screen gets locked with a code. I need to investigate the possibility to remote wipe my personal data if necessary.

Best thing to do is to go into the app menu and select browse profiles >> user wiki. Check out the profiles they have there. Download them to you phone. Then go to app menu >> profile data >> import one profile (or task). Select the ones you just downloaded. Check them out, alter them to fit your needs, and you start to learn the syntax, what commands are available, and what's possible.

Good luck! Its a time sink when you get started.
[EVO 4G General] subcypher:
GPS automatically turns on when I open a GPS-centric app.

Wi-Fi automatically turns on when I open a Wi-Fi-centric app.

When I connect my bluetooth headphones it asks me which music app I want to open.

My screen goes as dim as possible when I open my alarm clock at night.

It makes Widgetlocker open whenever my phone goes idle... since it doesn't always want to work.
[EVO 4G General] ultra74:
1) I have a night profile that turns down all the notifications and ringer except the alarm for night time, then returns the settings to normal in the morning.

2) When It connects to the specific bluetooth unit in my car, wifi turns off (no need in a moving car), 3g comes on and media audio goes up for my streaming music. After disconnect wifi comes back on.

3) I have a google maps gps text message in case I misplace my phone

4) I have home and work profiles that turn on and off 3g once they connect to wifi.

Been toying with variables and setting text widgets from minimalistic text. works nice.

All in all very handy application.

Their website has some sample profiles on their wiki at:

http://tasker.wikidot.com/profile-index
[EVO 4G General] lovethyEVO:
1) Shut off "Low battery LED" when battery is at or below 14%

2) Turn off capacitive buttons backlight (home, menu, back, search) and keep it off

3) Since I use the notification pulldown power mod, I have a profile that checks if my wimax is on or off when I reboot or shutdown my phone so it can shut it off when the phone boots if it was off before the shutdown/reboot.

4) Tasker switches my governors for me. No setcpu for anything. Governor is switched to conservative when the screen is off, interactive when the screen is on, smartass for all games, and ondemand for web browsing and anything the other governors don't cover.

5) GPS turns on and off when it's needed (maps, navigation, sky map, etc.)

6) Incoming call LED blinking is stopped (since I leave my phone on sound mode almost all the time)

7) All notification LEDs are stopped (especially since gmail still triggers the LED)

8) Display rotation is turned on and off when it's needed (when in the sense ui it is off and when in web browser, certain apps or games it is on)

9) When my phone boots, tasker checks a variable for my wimax and shuts it off if it needs to

10) When I'm done with a phone call tasker sends me back to my main homescreen

11) Widget that changes my hosts file for adblocking or no adblocking on the fly. The name of the widget also changes according to its status (Enabled or Disabled)

12) When charging, the left LED is shut off and the Wimax LED is used instead.

13) If my screen has been off for more than 2 hours (when I am sleeping) the sound is silenced and airplane mode is activated.

I have more that I don't use but these are my daily profiles.
[EVO 4G General] Bielinsk:
If I receive a text message from 11pm - 6:30am, I do not get notified and my phone responds with a ZZZZZZZ I am sleeping and will check in the morning.

I would love to get a hold of the profiles you guys are running. Lots of these would be helpful, at least as a learning tool.
[EVO 4G General] Jon:
Mind sharing these?

Wanted to try #4 but didn't have any success the first few times (months ago)

I have #5 but it doesn't lock screen (never noticed that) nor does it give me a maps link (tried but failed)
[EVO 4G General] Bielinsk:
I have setup a Dropbox folder we could drop profiles into. PM me your emails and I will send you an invite to the folder with a link. Profiles are small so shouldn't chew up much data.

Please name your profiles descriptive so we know what it does etc.
[EVO 4G General] coiledwire:
Can the profiles be grouped in the dropbox? I have tasks that use multiple profiles.

From my EVO when I should probably be doing something else instead.

Here is my GPS text message finder XML profile (zipped). simple but effective. Sends google maps link.

Just change the "findmyphone" text message to what ever you want to trigger the response message.

[EVO 4G General] akarol:
1) Silence all sounds and put on vibrate during work hours (9-9PM).

2) Turn on GPS for specific apps (Navigation, Maps, Antenna, etc.)

3) Turn off when closing those apps.

4) Pop up menu with PowerAMP, Pandora, FM Radio options when inserting headphone.

5) Close those apps when remove headphone.

6) Pop up PowerAMP, Pandora when connecting with BT headphone.

7) Close those apps when disconnecting.

8) TXT my BB the coordinates, batt. life if I TXT S.O.S. to my phone (in case it's lost/stolen).
[EVO 4G General] DraginMagik:
1) when i get w/ 50 meters of the office (or home). home and office are slightly different but the same idea.

- turn off bluetooth

- turn on wifi

- turn off 4G

- change wallpaper

- reduce ringer volume

(when i get out of 50meters...radios toggle)

- Bluetooth and 4G are on

- wifi is off

2) Quiet Time

- between 2300 and 0700

- notification sound 0

- notification vibrate is off

3) Quiet Cam - currently the AOSP camera has an obnoxiously loud CLICK.

- when camera app is active

- system sounds = 0

4) OnCall

- monitors my work calendar for the "OnCall" appointment.

- notification volume = 6

- change wallpaper (i'm on call for days at time, so this is handy reminder)

* wish i could increase only the 'work email' notification alert (i use two email clients so i can at least have a 'work email alert' and a 'personal email alert'...sadly, tasker doesn't seem able to take advantage of that.)
[EVO 4G General] pastert33:
Can you guys actually put in steps on how you got these profiles. I'm trying to figure tasker out but its a lil overwhelming.
[EVO 4G General] BigBadBuddy:
I do the following:

1. Turn off sound/ringers at certain locations, during certain times (Church, kid's school, etc).

2. Turn on WiFi at home or at work.

3. Overnight mode - automatically turn off WiFi & BT, lower screen brightness, filter calls from all but family, throttle CPU down to min 128000 max 256000. (uses max 1% battery and kept off charger for 8 hours).

4. Overclock CPU 10% for normal operation, underclock (min 128000 max 256000) when screen off (really good on batt).

5. Automatically ramp down CPU clocks as battery charge diminishes.

6. Turn down ringer volume when BT headset connected.

7. Silence phone when meeting in calendar with busy status.

A few others, but this is the main group of profiles.
[EVO 4G General] csharpdflat:
1.) Turn on GPS when using Maps, turn it off otherwise

2.) Silence ringers during work hours

Not much, obviously I could do a lot more with it.
[EVO 4G General] pastert33:
I know this is a pain but anyway you can put the steps you had to do to achieve these? Thanks in advance!
[EVO 4G General] digiblur:
Anyone using it with Roam Control? I would like to use it to force roam while I am at work. I do it manually now since the 3g at work is horrible. Full -65dbm signal with 50 kilobit downloads. 3g roaming is awesome!
[EVO 4G General] mmegalodon:
A lot of these are usually pretty simple, but some can get pretty complicated.

Have you looked at the tutorials / walkthroughs / user listing around the web?

Think of the context as the 'in this instance' and the 'task' as the 'do this.'

http://tasker.dinglisch.net/

http://tasker.wikidot.com/profile-index

These can give you some suggestions and can also shed light on how to use the app in varying scenarios.

A lot of people are using ones that are easy enough to figure out, or have been listed as basic but popular tasks (and can be found at either those links or elsewhere - google 'tasker profiles').

For instance, silencing ringer at night; Context - Time / 2200 to 0600. Task - Ringer Volume Zero / Notification Volume Zero / AutoSync Off.

That's obviously an extremely simple one, but again - context (trigger) and task (desired action).
