any one else having google voice sync issues?

google voice itself is working, but the notifications are not appearing for hours, or some times at all. not a huge deal because if I have a missed call, I typically go into google voice anyway, but I used to receive notifications immediately and now there is a huge delay (sometimes a few hours, sometimes no notifications at all).

this only started @ 7.0.0 and is still a problem on 7.0.2, have performed full wipe, etc. have not gone back any older release candidates or another rom to see if it is a CM7 stable issue.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mike1986.:
Can this be added to the updater-script with the following commands?

format("ext3", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p13");

format("ext3", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p14");

or it's not advised to format efs every time ROM is flashed?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] -PoXx-:
The commands can be executed from the updater script, I wouldn't do it the way you posted though, and amazinglarry has already made a flashable zip available. This is a potentially dangerous operation and I wouldn't do anything other than what has already been established as safe methods.

Can anyone explain this to mee? Root shell on phone?

im little stuck here. have rootet phone, flashed rom and radio, but this one i dont understand.. can anyone please give me a step by step?

Do i do this on command prompt on pc or on my phone?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] heybobitsme:
Don't use that! One typo and you're bricked. Instead, use this: http://kan.gd/h2z. You want the vision_wipe_efs-signed.zip. That being said, you only really need this if you're having GPS issues.

Edit: To explain further, those are low level partitions on your phone. Ones that you normally never see let alone are meant to mess with, which is why those commands are used. The zip in the link above is meant to be flashed in recovery and will execute those commands for you so you can avoid a brick.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] FiveInline:
Will this also work on Desire HD? because i just got an Error:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] heybobitsme:
Nope. It's written for vision. Plus the partitions may be different for DHD.

Been running into an old problem recently.

Up until yesterday, I could USB tether with the screen off just fine. Now, I have to go into Airplane mode and exit for it to work. I made a NANDROID, wiped with Superwipe+, restored, and flashed the newest Gingerbread radio. The problem still persists. Does anyone else have this issue?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cberbes:
Maybe this has been covered.....but I can't find it.

After flashing CM7....I've reflashed a few times for various reasons, doing a full wipe each time. Battery life is usually good the first few days, then it starts to get pretty bad. WiFi off, BT off, display dimmed, etc etc.

Now my "issue" isn't with the battery life itself....I still get a full day out of it with decent useage. My issue is with WHAT is using my battery. Before 7.0.2, system standby and system idle would be the top 2 battery eaters. Today I noticed my battery was draining fairly quick, so I checked it and MAPS had taken up 50% of my battery....and I never opened it. So I went into my apps list and force closed it. Refreshed my battery useage, did a battery pull, then rechecked it. Still showing MAPS as eating my battery.

I don't have many apps, and I don't think any of them would be attached to MAPS. But for some reason MAPS just wants to kill my battery, even though I am not using it. I don't want to delete it, as I do use it once and a while. But it just seems odd that MAPS would be eating so much of my battery.

Battery life..

I know this has been talked about before but I'm just trying to get a sense for what people's real-world experience is with the battery. I feel like my G2 is tethered to a charger all the time and it's getting annoying.

I'm on the latest 7.0.2 with Pershoot's kernel. I have the CPU ondemand set to go as high as 1056.

Prior to this I was on the 7.0 RC1, RC2 with whatever kernel came with those ROMs.

Today is a typical day. Light texting, some surfing and one call. Since taking my phone off the charger I've gone 11h 49m and my battery is now down to 6%. I have WiFi and GPS shut off. The battery status says that the Android System has eaten up 35% of the batter with Cell Standby taking another 30%.

Is this about the type of battery performance people are getting? About 12h max before the entire thing runs out?

I'm wondering if I should have been doing a full wipe of the device on each successive ROM upgrade even though it says it's not necessary.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] cberbes:
Have you looked to see what is using the battery? Check that, and shut down anythings running that you are not using. I noticed that MAPS will not shut down on it's own, so if I open MAPS I have to manually force close it...or it kills my battery. Today MAPS never opened, and I had MUCH better battery life.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] wrapper:
Since I upgraded to 7.0.2 and cleared the battery stats in Clockwork I've noticed a significant improvement in battery life. Right now I'm on 14 hours with 35% remaining, which for me is very good.

is anyone having issues with the cm7 7.0.3 not syncing facebook contacts? when i go to edit contacts then hit the menu button and click join.. none of my facebook contacts are showing up like they use to in the 7.0.2 build..
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mparson:
A co-worker showed me this one setting that has helped out a LOT. I used to pretty much leave my phone hooked up to the charger all the time, now I rarely need to charge it through the day, unless I play Angry Birds for a bit.

Settings->Wireless & Networks->Wi-Fi Settings->Menu->Advanced->Wi-Fi sleep policy, set this to "Never".

My phone always has Wi-Fi and BT turned on, though the BT is only connected when my head-set is turned on. Wi-Fi seems to be easier on the battery than 3g.

After you make that change, reboot your phone to reset those battery usage stats. Your Android System should hardly register on that graph. Here are my current stats:

2h 57m 54s on battery

Cell standby - 25%

Bluetooth - 25%

Wi-Fi - 25%

Phone idle - 19%

Display - 8%

Android System isn't even on the list right now.

The phone goes off the charger around 7am, when I plug it in before heading to bed, I tend to have around 50% battery, depending on usage during the day.

(currently running CM 7.0.2)

-Mike
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] pmcqueen:
that's cool that it worked for you, but since bbooze doesn't use wifi anyway, changing the sleep policy to "never" doesn't even have an effect. for you, it makes sense because what you've told your phone to do is stay connected to wifi regardless of the phone's state (idle, screen off, etc), and since wifi is easier on your battery than 3G/H, you're going to see a difference in battery life... but if you don't have wifi on in the first place, it is of no use.

@bbooze: 12 hrs with light usage is definitely poor performance. I get 16-20 hours with mild/heavy usage (texts here and there, ~10 calls a day [sometimes significantly more, sometimes only 1-5], usually an hour or two of streaming music via audiogalaxy and an hour or two of snes/psx/n64 emulators, and plenty of webbrowsing). keep in mind I have 3 chargers, one at home, one in my car and one in my cube, and if I usually get an additional hour or two of charging on top of the overnight charge.

what radio are you using?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] pmcqueen:
with the provided ADW launcher and 806mhz clock, I would say no way.

with ADW ex/LauncherPro/golauncher/or a stock gingerbread launcher and 806mhz or anything over that, in my experience, yes. ymmv.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] pmcqueen:
has the official changelog been published? can't seem to find it... or is this the only change that was made?

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] LGS1231:
Is it risky to run 7.0.2 if 7.0.3 has a security fix? Everything works perfectly on 7.0.2 and so far, it seems 7.0.3 is a little buggy.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] crachel:
There were no changes from 7.0.2->7.0.3 other than the security patch, so it perhaps is just an anomaly.. maybe try wiping cache/dalvik and see if that helps
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Cheeze[iT]:
I notice my screen off doesn't do its thing like it use to. =(
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
No it's not. And thats the wierd thing. The leaked stock rom has no OC. But yet it's still 1.5x to 2x faster. Very wierd. Someone stated in the other thread that the stock launcher has hardware acceleration, which may be the reason for it feeling so much better. But i have been flashing back and forth, even as recent as the #64 nightly, and they just can't hold a candle in my opinion.

I love cyanogenmod for the customization, but i guess we have been lucky enough to get just about the only phone in the world where the stock rom is gonna be worth a **** (once 2.3 is released). I have never had a phone (and i have had 10-15 different high end smartphones over the past 3 years) where the stock was better than a custom. I am still in amazement. HTC and tmobile somehow actually did this one right...unless they muck it all up before the final which i hope will not happen.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] stealthx32:
How are you guys defining "faster"? Benchmarks? Or just launcher speed?

I found ADW to be pretty lacking in all performance metrics. LauncherPro is blazing in comparison, and smooth as ever.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] djfoo000:
^second that. Launcher Pro is giving me smooth scrolling. I admit I have a 3-page homescreen, of which one one is occupied. App drawer scrolling is extremely smooth.

The 'stock' ADW that came with CM7 was sluggish. Scrolling the app drawer is like rubbing glass on grains of sand.

Used both with static wallpaper.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tvdang7:
yea adw is slow. I had to upgrade to adw ex to get the tilt screen to be fast not sure why though since its basically the same launcher. Havent tried any other launchers really should i?

my camera force closed as well, the phone rebooted by itself(or shutdown, can't remember), and then it worked fine! but just for good measure I fixed permissions in Rom Manager and rebooted again.

Tried it ,but still getting massive media force close

It force closes whenever I unlock my phone,and when a call or text is received and replaces my ringtone with the phones stock ringtones.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] heybobitsme:
Posting this info here because I know a bunch of people are using it with this ROM. ADW EX has been updated. I don't know about the free version (the default for CM). More info here: http://jbthemes.com/anderweb/2011/05/apologizes-and-update-adws-back/

It's a vast improvement over the previous version.

I'm probably crazy, but can you add widgets to your homescreen after updating? Like say "Calendar" widget? Because I can't.. I did restore settings using ADW's built in restore feature, but have since "Reset" everything and still can only add some widgets
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] smartin4166:
I was also getting those same "media force close" constantly. I went back to 7.0.2 and all is well again. I understand many people are having various difficulties with these newer versions. I'm sure everything is being worked on and everything will smooth out soon.

hi, I'm pretty new to CyanogenMod, and I was wondering, are there sometimes issues with attaching apks to emails? when in Root Explorer, I go into system/app or data/app, choose an apk and choose to send by Gmail. the message looks to be all set up with the attachment, but so far about 13 out of 15 times, the email shows up with no attachment. I'm just wondering if there is a reason why? pictures attach and send fine, by the way.

another oddity: I can get into data/app in Root Explorer, but Astro File Manager shows the entire data folder as empty!

thanks in advance for any insight. I sure am enjoying first hand the CyanogenMod experience! all in all very pleased with version 7.0.3.

update: the apks will attach and send when I use K9 Mail, but not the Gmail app.

Okay need some help please . Getting a bootloop after rebooting . Installs fine ,

no FC's , nothing at all . Then when you reboot all it does is bootloop . Its doing

this on 2 different G2's , did a full wipe plus superwipe before install . Tried

downloading CM 7.0.3 from CWM and CM's download page . Same results

with both downloads . Cannot figure this out . Any ideas ?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] C.Flat:
Did this happen after you turned wifi on?

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] supermario12312:
Did you use any of the recent nightlies? Even one of the one's shortly before 7.0.3 came out? Because Cyanogen tweeted to not to downgrade to 7.0.3 if you used any of the recent nightlies.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] AZ2ENVY:
Nope this is the first time for both phones going to CM7 .
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] supermario12312:
Oh wait....

You have to reboot after you first boot into the ROM before turning on Wifi :rolleyes:

I also learned something. Apparently, the camera button acts the same as the trackpad button in Clockwork. How did I learn?

I accidently rebooted my phone after doing a Superwipe+ :eek:
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] AZ2ENVY:
One time I rebooted it right away when the ROM fully loaded before

even turning on wifi . And still the same thing . Could it be something

with Titanium ?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] waydownsouth:
Quite probably, did you restore your wifi settings via titanium?

If your backup is from an earlier android version, there was a change made in the layout of the file that stores all your saved wifi networks... when you restore the file with the old layout via titanium it will cause a bootloop.

I just hacked my G2 again, it has been a while since the last time I did it was using Visionary months ago. This time I did it correctly with ADB, and now also have Clockwork and ROM Manager Premium installed.

.

With that all done, I wanted to give CM7.0.3 a whirl and I am VERY VERY pleased with it. Thanks for all of the hard work put into it.

I was wondering if it is worth putting in Pershoot's Kernels will also be a stable item and how hard are they on the CPU?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] yogi2010:
I've run Pershoot's kernel, and AmazingLarry's variation of Pershoot's kernel(running that now)..... they have both been great for me! CM 7.0.3

I'll give it a try then. Thanks! I am hoping it smooths out the interface just a pinch more with the extra speed.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] yogi2010:
Ok cool. Some people have said that the ADW Launcher that comes with the ROM is sluggish, so trying another launcher might be something to consider as well. I'm using Launcher Pro and liking it, and others have said the stock Gingerbread launcher works well too.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] flinkisme:
I'm running ZEAM launcher on 7.0.3 and I'm pretty happy with it. I think ADW is fast enough, I just don't like it.

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Code3VW:
DISREGARD THIS FOR NOW...SORRY!

Alright, let me start off by saying that I've been a long-time Cyanogen user back from the first available roms for the G1...so this isn't my first time using a phone. :)

Before CM 7.0.2 I ran TeamVillain 1.5. Bluetooth in my car worked perfectly and all contacts transferred without issue to my vehicle's radio.

I upgraded from TeamVillian 1.5 to CM 7.0.2. Now when I sync contacts, any contact that has more than just a telephone number (for instance, an email address) does NOT transfer.

I upgraded from CM 7.0.2 to CM 7.0.3, and still, no contacts that have email addresses transfer.

I downgraded back to TeamVillian 1.5 and the contacts transfer again no problem.

This means that it is NOT a vehicle specific issue, but some issue with the PBAP protocol that Cyanogen is using on his roms...

Please fix! :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] AZ2ENVY:
OKay now Im having waking issues where the phone will not wake up when either

Anyone else have horrible wifi connectivity? Today I went on a flashing spree and every other rom seems to have 4 bars of wifi anywhere in my house. On cyanogen I only have 2 or 3 and I get TONS of spikes where it shuts up for like 5 seconds and comes back (I don't have 4g so this gets annoying). Any help? There has to be something wrong. I always thought my wifi in the house sucked until I really payed attention to the wifi in the other roms.
