when i try to sign into my google account it says unable to establish a reliable data connection. any ideas? ive tried on 4g and wifi.

edit- just tried to get online and cant do that either. It says i am connected to wifi but cant seem to get any kind of data to work.

Nevermind, I did a a wipe and restarted and now it works. not sure what the hell that was all about but oh well. But, my market icon went back to green and when you hit "settings all my menu options are black and white. is that normal?
[EVO 4G Android Development] frettfreak:
Dude this looks awesome. Can't wait to try it. You should make a theme for theme manager. Sounds like it would be alot easier and then you wouldn't have to answer all these questions. Lol

Nice work man. Can't wait to try it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Vegasden:
I've been testing this for quite a while and I've grown very happy with it after the initial Sense withdrawl. It's fast, light weight, easily customizable and loaded with cool features.

The ADW Launcher that is part of this rom gives you tons of options for your home screens. Also take the time to go into Settings and then CM Settings and you'll find some darn cool settings (like Quiet Time, where you can set a start/stop for sounds...or built-in overclocking..among other things). I've been using this quite a while in testing and am still discovering new things either by use or thru various CM forums.

If you try this great rom effort please take the time to search. Virtually every "problem" mentioned here and in the "stock" CM thread in the XDA Evo Forum have solutions if you take the time to look.

If you go into settings/manage apps/find market updates and delete. Then your themed market will be back. Then go into Titanium back up and find the market updater and select the "freeze"option and it won't change on you again.

its really amazing rom, thanks :)

Thanks for clearing that up. SBC does have great battery life but I do worry about a just a tad.

what I did to fix the storage card issue: I took the storage card out, then rebooted, then put it back in, rebooted.........and everything is fine.

which of the two kernels posted is best to use? my phone was fully charged, made a 7 minute phone call and the battery dropped to 80%

Wanna here something funny? I had the same problem, slightly banged my phone against desk, rebooted, all is well...... LOL :D:D:D:D

I initially thought about throwing the phone at the TV to get it to work, but realized that I don't have the TEP insurance.
[EVO 4G Android Development] zone23:
OK good news I've eliminated the green in the dialer and also in ADW launcher when you press the draw button. Looks much better now. I had a bunch of .9.pngs to edit and finally go too it.. break time for lunch. Eyes are burning and blurry from staring at the PC.
[EVO 4G Android Development] casper97ta:
Thanks that worked great. CM7 takes some getting used to coming from sense. there are a few things I dont like that I dont think can be changed like my email notification. The longest setting for a refresh is every hour not every 4 like sense has. this just means my phone goes off all night long as new emails com in lol and are you guys using any weather widgets?

And one of my big issues is with 4g connecting, on sense we could go into ##3282# and change 4g connection settings, is there anyway to do that on CM? my 4g will disconnect after awhile even though i have full 4g signal and it takes awhile to reconnect

Can you use widget.txt to change dropdown...if so where does it go?

[EVO 4G Android Development] Vegasden:
There is no need with this rom. Go to Settings, CM Settings, Interface and you'll see Notification Power Widget. There you can set which controls show, arrange the order and even change the indicator color.

so sad, but still so true.

is there a hulu fix out there? searched all over CM forums and XDA. with rc1, warm z hulu fix worked but not on this rc2. any ideas?
[EVO 4G Android Development] zone23:
First I thought ## codes when changed were permanent and not effect by flashing? Otherwise wouldn't we all have to reactivate our phones every time we flashed?

Next: did you try going to CMSetting/Sound and setup "Quite Hours" or that just wont work for ya?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jelive:
Thanks...didn't even realize that :)

I have tested this rom for about a day and absolutely love it, Just have one issue, how do I change the screen pin lock time, was able to change it to 15 mins in sense so the screen doesn't ask for a pin code unless the phone has been inactive for 15 minutes.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Vegasden:
For what its worth, did a short road trip to test 4G (can't get it in the house)...signal locked and maintained good connectivity all over the place while driving and streaming both Pandora & TuneIn Radio.

Gps was also working fine...got and held a lock with no issues using Navigation.

OK after working on the ROMs all day they are finally uploading. I had one more very little thing I wanted to fix but my eclipse is acting up so its gonna have to wait. It was the ProTips android when you click a tip the orange border. Ya I fixed the files but can't compile it. Oh well tomorrow. I will not put out update just for that.
[EVO 4G Android Development] fadimo305:
Im going to try this ROM no harm in doing so....except when i flashed CM7 RC2 my 4G wouldnt stop going on and off and disconnecting.hoping this ROM works well with my 4G

UPDATE:I think I found a fix all u have to do Is let the 4g connect and disconnect for like 5 minutes after turn it off and wait 5 minutes and TADA (make sure the 4G icon turns completely blue)
[EVO 4G Android Development] casper97ta:
Same problem im having. My 4g will disconnect after awhile then when it reconnects the 4g and 3g icon stay in the notification area for hours. And man I got KILLED on battery life today. Ive actually never had a rom drain my battery faster than it did today. I think it has a lot to do with the 4g constantly trying to reconnect. Im running latest savage-zen kernel.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ChadH42:
Zone23 - I loved your previous Froyo-based ROM and I'm glad to see you convert to CM7. It is awesome!! I can't seem to go back to Froyo anymore. It's lame compared to CM7. I have downloaded your 3-9 release but will wait for tomorrow's to flash.

Glad to be Zone-ified again!! :D

[EVO 4G Android Development] italy7:
did you try toggling signature verification off in recovery??
[EVO 4G Android Development] blue23dragon4:
Nope...let me try..
[EVO 4G Android Development] blue23dragon4:
Tried it...no luck
[EVO 4G Android Development] zone23:
If you want to use a theme then I suggest just downloading the stock CM7 ROM and themeing it. This ROM is already themed and the CM themeing app has been removed. I created this so users wouldn't have to use a theme. Hope this makes sense.
[EVO 4G Android Development] zone23:
It's possible that you have a corrupted download. I would download it again. The file should be around 94mb.
[EVO 4G Android Development] italy7:
zone - are all the menus colored in riptide?
[EVO 4G Android Development] blue23dragon4:
The file that I have shows is 99mb and I have tried downloading it like 3 times already :(
[EVO 4G Android Development] zone23:
BTW guys some of your issues can be addressed in the CM forums remember this is a RC. CM has just started adding WiMax to the ROMs that doesn't mean its perfected. If 4G is something you need to get through the day you might want to stick with a Sense ROM. One of my other EVOZone ROMs might make for a better daily driver.
[EVO 4G Android Development] zone23:
I can't say that 100% obviously if you install an app those menus icons are not going to be colored.
[EVO 4G Android Development] casper97ta:
i was really loving certain things about this build, ive never tried a nonsense rom and it has its perks. I get way better 4g speeds on CM7 than i do on sense any thoughts on that?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jelive:
FWIW...I've had to toggle sig verification off 2x on several zips I've flashed to get them to take.

OK guys V14 is up its been signed for all you Clockworkmod junkies that like to make your life a living HELL.. Changed out the notification icons. They are much better now. Fixed a number of little things most will never notice.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Vegasden:
Settings/Display. uncheck auto-rotate screenOn

In the stock CM thread there is a link for an FAQ that is being updated almost continually. Folks with questions on how things work/getting things fixed might refer to this link:

CM Evo FAQ
[EVO 4G Android Development] Thedonk13:
hey guys, quick question....i have read that CM7 has some issues with GPS and that there is a fix for it but you need to be in a Sense based ROM to do it. I am currently using MikFroyo and have been debating giving this ROM a shot. If I go ahead and do the fix in my ROM now, flash to recovery, do a NAND backup, and flash CM7, will it hurt my GPS if I reflash that NAND?

basically, what I am asking, is doing the fix going to hurt my GPS usage within a Sense based ROM?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ElAguila:
Just flashed this and i have a quick question. Is there a way to change which widgets are shown in the power control strip? I know with froyo you can create a widget.txt file and put it in the /system/customize folder. But there is no such folder with this.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cjn14:
Flash it using alternative Clockwork Recovery (2.5.0.7, I think). There's a special signature fix that I can't go into.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Vegasden:
Even though a search of this thread would have given you the answer:

Settings/CM Settings/Interface/Notification Power widget. You'll see you can add/delete, change order and even change indicator colors.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Vegasden:
If you download the latest version of either Pure or Riptide the Theme Manager is included. Look in the Themes subforum and you might find something red. Not sure if Zone plans on a red theme...but that might hold you over.

Is it just me or are there a ton of the ADWLauncher settings missing? I can't seem to find any of the dock settings or a way to turn off the home screen indicators (I hate them for some reason). I seem to remember with RC1 having the ability to change to 5 on the dock.
[EVO 4G Android Development] zone23:
I have all those settings on mine. When I say that I mean the 5 icon draw. I don't know what the indicators is.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Vegasden:
For the indicators go to AWD settings, then UI settings and scroll down a bit and you'll Screen Indicator settings.

I found this good user guide for ADW:

Great ROM Zone! I've tried all the other 2.3 roms and this is the first one where 4G, GPS, Hotspot all work! And, as always, your themes are the best. Thanks again!
[EVO 4G Android Development] zone23:
Which one did you roll with?
[EVO 4G Android Development] cjn14:
More to GPS fix

Actually, I think before you restore CM7, in the Sense ROM, you should open an app that uses gps (maps, navigate, etc.), get it to lock, then flash or recover the CM ROM.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cjn14:
Since I'm a theme geek, I rolled with Riptide!
[EVO 4G Android Development] chuckyholmes69:
Ok, so i was on CM7 and had the GPS problem where it would connect then drop then connect then drop like after every couple of minutes. I tried the fix mentioned about flashing to a sense rom and doing that number thing and then i flashed back to CM7 and and tried navigator and it would keep saying searching.......................................... for like ever so i just gave up on it and figured i'd flash to sense rom if i needed GPS. well, after flashing back to sense rom i got the searching....................... forever as well and i thought on no I'm screwed. So i deleted all my backup nandroids and wiped everything over and flashed sense rom first and same thing, searching.............. and flashed this version of CM7 and same thing, searching.......... I thought screw it i'll just do without GPS until a real solution arrives. then I thought outta curiousity let me see if the maps app will at least find my location and it did and i did a search there and it found the directions then I hit navigate and boom it worked like it should. I stayed on it for over 5 minutes and it never lost signal. Now whenever I just straight click the navigator app it locks in no problem, so finally GPS works again for me. Just something for who ever is still having trouble my try.
[EVO 4G Android Development] zone23:
Glad you got it figured out.

Hey what are you guys using for a clock and weather app? I started using fancy widget and changed the font color to blue so it matches good but just wondering if there are better options out there.

And also, im still having the 4g connecting issue. If i use wifi or just toggle data on or off then try to turn 4g back on it just wont connect. it shows that its on and the icon is in the notification bar but it has no signal and wont reconnect unless I turn the phone off and on. I posted the problem in the CM7 thread too but just wondering if you guys are having this same problem.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Vegasden:
I've read in the CM forums of this 4G issue and I saw its been logged as a major issue. I saw this in the Nighty thread the other day. So until then not much anyone can do as its inherent in CM. On the plus side, though, we do have 4G.

In regards to clock/weather I've been using Beautiful Widgets. But I just saw a cool one in the home screen thread called SiMi clock that is pretty nice...customizable colors, weather and battery widget all in one or as individual widgets. It's on the Market...looks like the donate version offers a few more customizations.

[EVO 4G Android Development] casper97ta:
Thanks man that makes me feel a little better that its not just me and they are aware of it. Im still trying to get used to aosp but i am liking certain things. Not sure why but my 4g speeds are insane, way faster than on sense and im not sure why that is. I really do like the sense weather widget so Im gonna have to try some of those you mentioned. thanks again man.

Confession- my first CM-based rom is Destoroyer, but VVM/VM isn't working properly.

Is it working on this one for people?

VVM isn't working at all and VM is sending me sms messages and not clearing the notification icon correctly.
[EVO 4G Android Development] zone23:
Sprint VVM does not work with CM Gingerbread. Most of use who use CM use Google Voice.
[EVO 4G Android Development] casper97ta:
I actually have my sprint vvm working perfect using one of the fixes that was posted. There was a flashable voicemail zip someone posted. I flashed to a sense rom, used TB and backed up the VM app, flashed the zip then flashed back to cm7and restored vm data with TB and its working perfect.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Vegasden:
To clarify, "out of the box" Spring VVM does not work. As Zone stated, most people switch to Google Voice, which has a voicemail option (so you don't have to change numbers, etc.). Some others have had success using a free app/service called youmail.

However, if you are determined to use Sprint VVM, there is a working solution. It does take a bit of work on your part...but many claim success.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=982966

Of note (author in the link was not aware when he wrote the instructions) is you must use a third party text message program (Handcent, Chomp, Go) or a free app called redlist to block an annoying text from "9016" that will continually be sent to you after you do the instructions found on the link above.

Best of luck no matter what you choose.
[EVO 4G Android Development] brownrob73:
Actually, AFTER step 5 and BEFORE step 6, you'll want to run navigation and keep it active while you go into ROM Manager and flash CM7. This worked for me! Hope it helps.
[EVO 4G Android Development] brownrob73:
This solution worked like a charm! Now I am complete! Until the next ROM comes out...at least!

Thanks for the ROM, I love EVOZone CM Rc2 (riptide). Looks great. Just wiped/flashed over my Evio 1.8 ROM :-) I flashed the SalvagedZen Kernel. Quadrant score 1355 and Lint 41.8. Overclocked to1190 (Evio always froze).

PS

But I noticed that battery performance is not as good as on Calks's Evio.

Over night the battery went down from 100% to 45%. I looked at the battery usage and see "91% Dialer". And no, I don't "sleep-dial" ;-)

Did anybody experience the same issue? (first time CM user :-)
[EVO 4G Android Development] palmdude:
Well, looks like there are already "hundreds" of topics with people complaining about this issue ...
[EVO 4G Android Development] pastert33:
Just flashed this and I'm quite impressed! Was wondering if you pulled all the multiple languages out of CM? Thanks for the work you've put in! Its running great. Also, my market keeps returning to a green icon version. I go into apps and uninstall updates but it still does it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] casper97ta:
After you uninstall the updates go into titanium back up and freeze the market updater.
[EVO 4G Android Development] casper97ta:
Go into settings/call settings and make sure "turn over silence" is unchecked. that has been giving people problems with the dialer draining battery.

My crazy battery drain is coming from "android system" according to spare parts but i cant figure out what exactly is causing it or how to stop it.

Over a long night sleep my battery went down from 100% to only 89% percent (SBC kernel).

I love this ROM!
[EVO 4G Android Development] casper97ta:
Zone so far im really starting to love your CM7 rom as always, but man I am getting crazy usage from android system and adw.launcher. When I check in spare parts under battery usage it says adw.launcher is using a crazy amount compared to anything else ive ever seen. Im guessing this is contributing to my battery drain. Any ideas on why adw is using that much or is that normal?
[EVO 4G Android Development] zone23:
Honestly I couldn't remember but I checked the framework and they were still there. So that's a no I did not remove them. I don't think anyway.
[EVO 4G Android Development] zone23:
I'm not real sure and I'm using MikFroYo Zone so I can't check to see what my usage is like. You have some options though you could reinstall ADW from the market or try launcher Pro
[EVO 4G Android Development] scottspa74:
Or use root explorer to go to system/app/MarketUpdater to "".bak, instead of. apk

Either way, whichever is easier for ya.

BTW, Zone, thinking this may be my first trip to CM/aosp land. Looks really nice, and your work is always solid.

The file size of these aosp roms is like, half the size of sense roms ...amazing. really interested.
[EVO 4G Android Development] casper97ta:
If I uninstall and reinstall adw will I lose the blue color you made for the dock icons?
[EVO 4G Android Development] zone23:
It is very likely it will remove the icons. At least you would know if it fixes the problem. How fast or slow does your battery die?
[EVO 4G Android Development] casper97ta:
When I was on savage-zen or the tiamet kernel my battery would be dead by 1pm. I have since went back to one of MS's aosp kernels from the SBC thread and its way better but not what it should be with this rom. I just switched back to this kernel a couple days ago so i might give it another day or so to see if the kernel gets any better but Im getting worse battery than I did on any of your sense roms so I know somethings gotta be wrong.

Edit: I should say that I also think the 4g issue is also playing a part in the battery drain with trying to reconnect for so long after it drops.
[EVO 4G Android Development] scottspa74:
So, im thinking of making this my first first into aosp, but wondering......

I use a feature in sense that let's mr backup all my contacts as a Vcard to sd, so when I flash a new rom, it reads the Vcard and restores said contacts.

Without sense, obviously I couldn't do that. I checked market, but I don't see anything that looks good for that. Just wondering what others are using. (No, I Dont have my contacts backed up to google, never felt totally comfortable with that)

Thanks in advance.
