Hmm, never noticed a trend with my bluetooth being on or off. I have actually not been using my bluetooth for the last few days, and I still get random freezes. It's ok though, a reboot and it's back running.

The only thing I find strange is, it's hit or miss. Lately I haven't had to reboot to clear the frozen lockscreen. One time my phone ran for 100+ hours before it froze up, next time 4 hours on before a freeze.

Not sure if a dev may see this, but the adw ex dev removed the system persistent option because it no longer works in 2.3. Does this mean the same for the cm performance setting? Is that option actually doing anything?

~maybe I set it too high...

SMS Scrolling Lag !

Great Rom !!

Thanks a lot.

i think there's scrolling lag on sms threads.

Thanks

Quick question.

I just installed this mod onto an empty SD card. Before I did I formatted everything possible in ClockWork.

After installing the CM7.zip I installed the gapps.zip.

I booted, did language, singed into google etc.

Then it asked me about installing all those apps from the market on the checklist (that part was new to me.) I chose what I wanted and said ok.

Now it's sitting at a Market screen that says loading. But the thing isn't spinning. Is this normal? Does it just take a while or what?

can someone explain how to get Sprint VVM to install & work w/ CM7, & provide the links to the threads/files.

yes i used the search feature, but the instructions seem to be incomplete

Did you figure out the sprint vvm? I tried to PM but for some reason couldn't?

Happens to me when I go that way, don't know if it's normal, but it's frequent. What I do is uncheck everything and hit OK instead of cancel, but sometimes I still have to go in and manually cancel things. I use TitaniumBackup to restore apps instead of the market.

Install Google Vmail - A few weeks ago Sprint announced they were changing over to Googles vmail service. Since then everybody has had problems except those that already used Google. My wife's Hero is stock Sense, not rooted, etc. Her voice mail's come in (via stock SVVM) many hours after the call, if they come in at all. My CM7/Google VVM messages come in instantly.

Battery Life?

Is it just me, or is anyone else getting sick battery life out of this ROM! For whatever unknown reason my battery life has almost tripled over night running this. I have been getting poor battery life since first flashing Gingerbread back in December going back and forth between CMOD and AOSP. I am actually using the original battery that came with my Hero over a year and a half ago and I am getting almost 2 days on minimal to normal use and a good 12-14 hours abusing the heck out of it, non-stop!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bob0builder:

[Hero CDMA Android Development] Drunkpilot:
When is the last time you updated your prl and pri using a "sense" rom or a nandroid of your stock build? That seems to help a lot of people. Test your SMS a couple times while on the sense rom and make sure it works, then reinstall the nandroid back up of this and you should be fine...hopefully.

Flashing IS a gateway drug!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dpeeps74:
My phone has gone haywire. I lost all my settings. It's done this before and a reboot would help but not now :( which makes no sense btw. guess tonight in the motel 6 as I lay awake drunk I will do a clean install.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] fowenati:
For some reason everything after 7.0 final has been somewhat laggy for me. not sure what it is though.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
I THINK that's about when they did the bitmap purging thing, IIRC that makes ADW laggy, either disable bitmap asset purging in cmsettings > performance or try a different launcher.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dpeeps74:
So...for 2 hours my phone basically had no settings and then the next time I pulled it out of my pocket and it was all back to normal

[Hero CDMA Android Development] bsmith1051:
Two questions:

1. If I am on a call and the screensaver kicks in, how do I get the screen back without hanging-up the call? (I'm using the pattern-lock screensaver.) So far, the only way I've found to recall the unlock screen is to press the red/power button but that then hangs-up the call, too.

2. Does the built-in News And Weather widget work properly for anyone? My experience has been that it stops updating after just a day or two. (Restarting doesn't help.) If I go into Settings > Applications and force-close it, then erase data, I can then recreate the weather-only widget and it'll work again. But only briefly.

Any suggestions welcomed!

P.S. I'm willing to use a third-party weather widget but I'm really hoping not to, just to save on in-use memory. Or, does the included News And Weather widget use just as much RAM as a third-party widget would?

P.P.S. I'm running CM 7.03 on a Sprint Hero.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
for number 1, use the menu button.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dpeeps74:
Menu will turn the screen on in call, from there if you press home it should allow you to unlock the phone and use it while in a call.

As for new & weather, I don't think you'd notice any real difference with any other weather widget. I've used weatherbug and fancy widget and new & weather and never seen any real difference in performance at all. If it's not updating the most likely cause would be either a task manager or a memory manager set too aggressive ...but I haven't used news & weather in a while so can't speak to how it may currently work.

~maybe I set it too high...

if im upgrading from v7.0 to 7.3, i know i gotta do a nandbackup and delete the cache.... but the question is, how can i get all of my apps and settings after upgrading? or is that what the nandbackup is for?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] fowenati:
If youre upgrading from 7.0 to 7.3 you don't need to wipe, just flash the zip. and reboot, it should work fine. A NANDROID Backup actually would revert you EXACTLY back to what it was before, Old Apps, Old OS Version, Old EVerything
[Hero CDMA Android Development] m_reyna_16:
so then u are telling me that this will keep all of my settings and apps there?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Pyr0TeK:
Go into your recovery. Wipe cache, wipe dalvik. Then flash CM7. Reboot. This will keep all of your current applications and settings intact.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ebaDamagePlan:
A lot of times I'll be doing something on my phone (it seems pretty arbitrary) and instead of loading whatever screen is supposed to come up next it'll just be black.

Also a lot of times my screen will just be black when I'm receiving a call, has anyone else experienced this?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] yadnom:
I have this problem. A couple of days ago I was getting a low beeping noise for all my texts, when I checked the sound notifications, nothing was selected. I'm running 7.0.3.

This has happened to me before. This is/was a known issue. I'm not sure if it has been fixed or not. I'm running 7.0.3 but haven't seen the issue in a while. I used to get it mainly when receiving calls only too but I don't get a lot of incoming calls so I don't know if I still have the problem.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
Black/blank screens have fixed in 2.3.4 or CM nightlies.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] m_reyna_16:
thanks! this is exactly what i needed to know! i know how to do the process, i mean its in the first post.... but i just needed to know if everything will be there! and this helped! thanks

EDIT: for future refrence, my phone was acting a lil slower even though i erased all of my txts, my calls, and cleaned the cache... will wiping the cache, and dalvik get rid of that lagginess?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] fowenati:
hm, my phone always gets laggy after about an hour of use after flashing. any ideas why? iv tried wiping caches and dalvic etc, but nothing really fixes it.

Having issues with 7.0.3, after charging typically or tethering, the battery all of a sudden starts draining fast and then gets really warm. I.E. Charged...took off the charger at 100%, 20 minutes later without using it, down to 60%. If I reboot the phone, it doesn't drain.. any idea's what causing this?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] fowenati:
Tethering will drain your battery like no tomorrow as well as heat it up. Charging your phone will also heat it up. I don't get the random battery drain w/o tethering though. If your phone has the wireless tether app open (make sure it isnt a running process), then battery will drain. Rebooting your phone will close the app, that’s likely what is happening.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
Rebooting of course can burn your battery 10% sometimes. Sometimes when you do something the battery will show it's fine until a few minutes after you quit doing whatever was using the battery so much. i.e. there's a delay in the battery reading from actual battery levels.

If you go to settings > about phone > battery use it will show you what has been using the battery, you can click on the graph as well as each item listed there for more details.

Also spare parts will show you under battery history anything that may be causing a wake-lock (screen off, apparently asleep but totally awake).

"Touch the android to begin" caught in a loop

I'm having a ton of trouble getting this installed (was on the "Froyo Vanilla 31-DEC" ROM). I flashed clockwork recovery, did a factory reset, flashed 7.0.3 of this rom, flashed the gapps, cleared the cache (from the recovery) and rebooted.

I'm stuck in a loop at the initial startup screen, though - I see the initial "Touch the android to begin" screen come up, but it only stays up for a few seconds and then the UI seems to restart - suddenly the little skateboarding android comes in again and I'm back to square 1. I can still get into adb shell during these periods, and "adb reboot recovery" is working fine, but I'm not sure how to go about fixing this. Any pointers?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] fowenati:
Did you try wiping the dalvik cache?

Try:

1. Data/Factory Reset

2. Wipe Cache Partition

3. Wipe Dalvik Cache

4. Flash 7.03 of this ROM

5. Flash GApps

6. Reboot

Thank you for the reply, but that doesn't actually fix the issue. The screen is still on when I answer a call and bring the phone up to my ear. This causes problems if my cheek touches any buttons on the screen. Is there anyone else having this issue?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] fowenati:
The hero doesn’t have a proximity sensor to my belief, we cant fix this.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] radrian92:
There is an app in the market called "proximity sensor" it works by using the ambient light sensor to lock the screen during a call.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] fowenati:
That's actually quite smart.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jasonmaloney:
The Hero's ambient light sensor actually is a proximity sensor -- the Capella CM3602. It's actually sold primarily as a proximity sensor with additional ambient light sensor functionality. This is the same proximity sensor used in the Nexus One as well as several other HTC phones.

Unfortunately, as far as I know, no one has ever been successful in getting the proximity function to work properly on the Hero. This would require kernel additions. I was once successful in modifying the kernel to get the sensor to actually be recognized, but it would output a constant NEAR signal and never switch to FAR.

As far as I know, the sensor has one analog and one digital output -- the analog output being the "ambient light sensor" data, and the digital output being the equivalent of NEAR/FAR. I am unaware if these are physical outputs or logical outputs: if they are discrete, physical outputs, there is a chance that the proximity output is not actually connected and therefore unusable. But if they are "logical" outputs from the same physical output, it may be possible to eventually get this working.

Getting this working is outside of my scope of expertise, but as said before, if the digital output can't be used, the analog output can certainly be used as an approximation/hack.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
The proximity sensor app doesn't work in the dark, can't get to your screen without turning the light on. When in-call your screen should go off in 10 sec no matter what your other settings are, if you can just hold the phone away until you see it go off it'll work.

Additionally because the phone has no proximity sensor proper, if you have some apps that light the screen with a notification it turns the screen in your pocket and then your leg causes screen input so you must put the screen facing out in your pocket.

I can't get wait to get a phone with one and a new phone now.
