Bugs in Cm7 RC1

Hello,
I'm a new member and since I do not currently have 10 posts yet, I cannot post in the Android Dev Forum. stupid rule IMO. So I am creating a new topic to make the bugs I have found known since I have not seen anyone talk about them in the dev forum.
*MODS* If you could move this topic into the dev forum that would be great!
Nexus S running Cm7 Rc1 with Netarchy 1.2.1 kernel. Great work guys!
Bugs:
1. When taking pictures in a dark room, the flash is not timed correctly. The flash lights up then turns off before the picture is captured. ( this happens about every other picture I take)
2. Lots of random reboots when doing cpu dependent tasks.
3. When saving pictures from MMS, pictures do not copy to SD. I've tried rebooting and re saving the photo's.
4. Apps freeze up and FC when started. It seems to be a different app every time I reboot the phone and it doesn't always happen.
5. Wifi is semi-broken. Sometimes it works fine, other times it will try to connect but fail. Under wifi it says connecting like its going to work but then just says disconnected.
I will post more bugs as I find them. Others are welcome to post bugs as well and I will update the list of bugs in my original post.
Thanks for all the hard work with the ROM and Kernel development!

Just a question, did you do a complete wipe before installing the rom?

Running the ROM with same Kernal for 24 hours and not had a single reboot or force close.
WiFi also working fine.
Haven't tested for the other bugs .

I haven't had a random reboot, frozen app or broken wifi yet but I do have the flash timing issue.

I had a baseband crash 2 hours after I installed CM7. Back on stock for now

1. works properly over here. when taking a pic with flash, there is a preflash first, then it focuses, flashes again and takes a pic.
2. whats your phone clocked to(setcpu)? is it overclocked? maybe your phone cant handle the overclock?
3. long press, press save attachment worked for me.
4. no problem like that
5. wifi works here. on the latest cm7 nightly with netarchys 1.2.4

Been running RC1 since it came out and haven't had but one random reboot. Wifi works perfectly, cell and data radios work perfectly, battery life is great, theme looks great, loving it. Seems like you're in the minority here lol

I haven't really experienced any of those problems actually.

Faced none of your issues although for me, if i get a random reboot due to overclocking my limit, my android.phone performs a force closed and i'm not able to have any cell signal until i do a wipe and to restore everything from my titanium backup.
Doing a nandroid restore doesn't help as well. Strange indeed.

you are running a outdated version of the kernel (1.2.1) 1.2.2 is the new stable version, and 1.2.4 is the latest beta. It could conflict with a newer version of CM7 (speculating).
Try wiping factory settings, cache and dalvik. Then reflash CM7 + gapps.
Not facing any of these problems, and this post wouldn't go into the dev forums at all.

i found a HUGE bug in cyanogenmod7 effecting all phone models. this might make ppl rethink using CM7. the info is posted here http://goo.gl/AZDtZ

I did a full data wipe and wipe Dalvik cache and almost all issues have been taken care of.
I still get lots of random reboots tho, I have switched to a stock kernel to rule out the OC.
Thanks for all the input

what exactly is the point of using CM7?

More customization, better performance, deodexed rom for theming, larger developer base, better features (power controls in the dropdown, more options for lockscreen...), support for Bluetooth input devices like the wiimote...do I need to keep going?

When I have rooted my phone and then booted into stock ROM I have faced with nonworking wifi and camera. Then I have installed CM7, and problems with wifi and camera fixed.

1. Custom Lock Screens
2. Edit Auto Light settings ( when system is set to Auto Brightness )
3. Enable Quiet hours so your phone will never ring out loud between set hours e.g 11pm - 6am
4. Music Control from lockscreen
5. Notifications area Power controls e.g WIFI / GPRS / SOUND
6. Faster Phone Speed in general
7. Sound Tweeks ( Boost Notifications / Ringtone / Speaker Phone )
8. Ability to use Voodoo sound and EXT4 hacks ( with custom kernals )
9. Better Battery Life ( further improved by lowering Light settings and disabling V/A settings )
10. Haptic feedback improvments
11. long press buttons settings ( I.E long press home and launch an app e.c.t )
12. Rom manager allows you to back up your whole system and Titanium backup allows you to back up all your apps and system data.

Down here in Aus CYANOGEN MOD9 HELP!!??

Hi all, Noob of xda here,
I've been reading the forums as a non registered user and used some of the tutorials to root my samsung android device, I'm now running ICS 4.0.4 on my GT-S5660 and running 1096mhz instead of underclocked 800mhz from the shop. I spoof my devices imei number on a regular basis due to localized phone jackings from authority figures, lets just say I like my privacy and here in aus I have the right to keep it this way. I'm an Unlimited customer for calls, sms/mms and mobile internet data access. No there is no cap on my unlimited, and as far as I'm aware I'm probably 1 of very few customers in this country that have purposely done this, because we all know it.. phone companies are ripping people off all around the world, and some of us just happen to know it all to well.
Hopefully somebody will read this topic, bcuz I need a little help with ICS 4.0.4 bugs :/ My mobile internet data usage limit is programmed to be unchecked and "hidden" therefore do NOT have red and orange data warning and data limit "lines" and cannot access the checkbox to tick it and just raise bar 999###gb, I can hard reset or recover to the base copy I custom edited *to suit my own needs* and it will reset all data counters. I got the base from cyanogen mod 9 and it appears the project was unfinished. I get data warning limit at 2gb...... I have downloaded over 450gb in the last month and have just put up with the warning in notification bar. I have several other bugs that are getting annoying.. but would be simple if i had a larger knowledge of java script and open source code or the time to learn it. I have everything working perfect except camera display auto focus on screen was incorrect or uncompleted. few other bugs with on off switching of bluetooth and wifi though 90% of time works after reboot. I have no bootscreen and on phone start from being off it will not load any picture except my SAMSUNG *which is a mainboard bios image* when it first turns on, screen hangs black bcuz screen timeout settings, I changed my screen timeout to 15seconds and now it hangs on black screen for 15s then goes into sleep mode *turning screen and button lights OFF* as soon as I push menu or power button it loads up and starts working PERFECTLY, when beforehand main settings were set to never turn off screen therefore it constantly hangs with no onscreen image display and eventually freezes entire OS bcuz it seems to think its running perfectly when its not. Lots of reports of other device noobs saying "my phone is bricked" when really you are just a noob.
Can anyone help with the bugs I have or somehow get someone to finish the project using the original projects files or similair??????
Oh and I swear to god if noobs post dumbass unrelated s**t comments on this post...

Camera issue - no idea? sorry
Data limit notifications
My wife had this issue on her phone after I flashed it (CWM, Cyanogenmod7)
Needless to say I got the blame!
I updated to the latest cyanogenmod7 nightly
Hers is a Galaxy S2 which we got here in the UK
After that update it seemed to be working ok
Appreciate that my phone is different, I guess what Im saying is, try another rom or a nightly?
Apologies if this didnt help
Good luck

As far as I read in the forums the project on samsung galaxy gio gt-s5660 wasnt finished or mastered whatever one of the project workers stole money from account and project ended? my baseband version is S5660VXXKQ4 4.0.4 ics i dont know what other roms there are other then gingerbread n i dont like gingerbread much its what it came with preinstalled n it had heaps of annoying keyboard bugs n app crashes. Maybe there is another rom like ics that is fully operational on my gio????? i want to install rom from zip file on sd card like i did with ICS.

Re: [ROM][NIGHTLY] CyanogenMod 9 for Motorola Milestone 2 (Android 4.0.4)
This is kinda sad, that I can't reply directly to the ROM thread, but here it is, I just hope someone will tell them, or see it to adress these problems correctly:
There's a couple of problems with this ROM. First of all it loses the data connection after sometime of inactivity. Browser won't load anything, asking to check the connection. Going to settings -> data usage -> mobile data switch -> turning it off and then on solves the problem, but it's kind of annoying to do that five to six times a day.
Secondly - just after flashing this ROM keyboard backlight was working fine. But after installing the gapps it stopped. Just won't work. ((
Third(ly))) - Apollo app crashes at random when trying to listen to podcast/music from sdcard. Also annoying. Disabling data connection seem to solve the issue tho as it stopped crashing yesterday.
Fourth - some sensor shanannigans when you're trying to use chrome (games are fine with it) while charging. Random zoom-ins and stuff.
Fifth - and most terrifying. Sometimes it loops, as if I was repeatedly taping the screen at the center or somewhere near it. Can't even reboot when it happens. Power button to lockscreen seem to solve the issue.
Otherwise this ROM is smooth and good and I like it a lot. Using it for a few months now.
Big thanks.

The Data connexion loss is a recuring bug for some, mostly people who have a Carrier that use roaming (ie : use another's carrier's network). No known fix for know, but some people seems to have it working "better" by disabling data roaming/national data roaming in options, but it's not for everyone, since some carriers require that to be toggled for data to work.
For the Backlight on the keyboard, be sure to check if the automatic gestion of automatic backlight is activated, it's required for it to work. There is too a "fix" for the problem in the last 5/6 pages of the main topic from memory, but don't recall it exactly, so you'll have to dig to try it.
No idea about Apollo, but it seems to have quite some quirks, and most people use other players so not sure about it, maybe start by checking the Apollo dev's page and market comments to be sure it's not related to Apollo but to the ROM.
The "random sensor shennanigans" while charging is something that happens to a lot of people, i think it's a multi touch bug from the kernel, but not sure (ie : not really solvable by the dev, unless he finds a way to remake tezet's fix (i think it was tezet) or we all use CH kernel since it seems the bug isn't there in this kernel [ wtb a way to use custom kernels :/]).
Your last problem is a weird bug, probably linked to the ROM, but i must admit it'll be hard to pinpoint, since i don't have it but my brother do, while both phones are the exact same model, and flashed the same, in the same order, with the same sbf/rom versions and so on.
I guess you can try to make a full wipe/factory reset (only backuping data you REALLY need to keep like contacts/sms/call log and so on) and redo your phone config, because as far as i know, the only difference between my phone and my brother's is that i had to did that again after i screwed up a couple times, installing an app that was bricking the phone (took me a few wipes to identify it), it might be the reason why i don't have it and he does, or not.

Status/Quality of CM7.2

For a number of reasons, I'm thinking of rooting my Droid R2D2 and installing CM7.2. Given that I'm on 2.3.4 and the hoops required to root it, I would love it if someone could verify that the following features all work on their Droid2 or R2D2 with CM7.2. I haven't been able to find a consolidated list of what does or doesn't work on this particular phone. I'll update this post with reported statuses as people respond for others to use as a reference.
Comments in blue are consolidated feedback from others. Comments in green are my own experiences after taking the plunge.
Phone calls: Yes Confirmed
3G Data: Yes Confirmed
WiFi: Intermittent. Sometimes people have to reboot every time you toggle, but not everyone has this issue I've noticed sometimes when on WiFi I lose all data connectivity. Disabling WiFi sometimes fixes it, but not always. Rebooting seems to do the trick every time though.
GPS: Yes Confirmed
Phone-over-Bluetooth: Yes Confirmed
Stream Audio over Bluetooth: Yes, possible lag entering menus/rotating screen/unlocking due to using power amp Pandora works fine for me
Still Camera: Yes Confirmed
Video Camera: Yes Confirmed
Physical Keyboard: Every key except 'ALT LOCK' Confirmed
Motorola Desktop Dock detection/integration: Yes, though it doesn't seem to remember that I've hit the brightness/dim button between inserts as it used to when on stock.
Motorola Car Dock detection/integration: Yes
SMS/MMS (I use Google Voice for most of my SMS needs, but for sake of completeness):Yes SMS - yes. MMS - haven't tested.
In addition, if you could address the following, that would be great: One of the reasons I want to get rid of the installed firmware is because of a strange problem I have when I stream audio over bluetooth to my car. The problem is: when I'm streaming audio, and only when I'm streaming audio, if I use my car's steering-mounted controls to initiate a phone call, it seems to sever the bluetooth connection with the phone. I have to manually re-connect the car to the phone (not re-pair, just re-connect). When I'm not streaming audio, using the steering wheel-mounted controls don't cause the sever to occur. I use both Pandora and iHeartRadio, and have seen the same problem in both apps. Using the iOS version of the same apps on my work-issued iPhone don't have the problem, so I don't think it is an problem inherent with my car, I think it is an issue with the Android installation. If switching to CM7.2 suffers this same problem as the official 2.3.4, it wouldn't be worth the effort to me to switch. But if it DOES fix the problem ... I might be more forgiving if everything in the above list doesn't work fully. I still suffer the same problem.
Thanks in advance!
Other things I've noticed:
Airplane Mode: I've noticed that trying to trigger Airplane Mode doesn't seem to work properly. When I attempt to trigger it, nothing appears to happen. If I then reboot the phone, I see the airplane icon in the status bar, data doesn't work (as one would expect when in Airplane Mode), but the Bluetooth icon is visible, as if Bluetooth were still turned on. Attempting to turn off Airplane Mode also requires a reboot.
Lock Screen: Initially, changing the settings for the lock screen worked just fine. Now, for some reason, the settings don't seem to "stick" ... I set them, but they have no effect. But, if I then reboot, the settings that I tried to set take effect. So they are being persisted somewhere, somehow ...​Airplane Mode and Lock Screen: Originally I noticed the two above items. I just did a factory reset of the phone (Settings --> Privacy --> Factory data reset), and the problems went away. Airplane Mode seems to work properly, and the Lock Screen settings update as expected, just like when I first installed CM. I didn't do all that much previously, so I can't imagine what broke these the first time, but if I happen to recreate the problem and isolate the cause I'll mention it here.
ADW Launcher: When Cyanogenmod first booted up, I couldn't add, move, or remove anything from the default home screens by long-pressing. The haptic would trigger, so I know it was recognizing the presses. By going through the ADW settings and choosing simply to restart ADW, everything started working fine.
Lock Screen: I love the flexibility and customization it allows. At first though, I thought it wasn't showing the time/date of the next upcoming alarm. Then I realized that by disabling the "show next calendar event" feature, it would show up in the same place that the calendar event was otherwise appearing in.
It's fast!: The phone feels MUCH more responsive than when I was on stock.

Phone calls: Yes
3G Data: Yes
WiFi: Intermittent. I have to reboot every time you toggle, but not everyone has this issue.
GPS: Yes
Phone-over-Bluetooth: Yes
Stream Audio over Bluetooth: Never tried
Still Camera: Yes
Video Camera: Yes
Physical Keyboard: Every key except 'ALT LOCK'
Motorola Media Dock detection/integration: Never tried
Motorola Car Dock detection/integration: Never tried
SMS/MMS (I use Google Voice for most of my SMS needs, but for sake of completeness): Yes. I use both also

Does it do this with your standard music app while playing music off your SD card?
Your logic seems sound enough, but you assume Android is a perfect OS. It might just be the way Pandora and iHeartRadio are designed to handle that situation in the Android operating environment and it might just be a bug across 2.3.4. My suggestion to you would be to try these same exact things with a couple DIFFERENT Android phones (a friend's, the wife's, etc.) to see if that's just how it plays out within the Android OS. Worst case scenario, that's just a problem with the apps themselves and you write an email to them asking for an update with a solution.

Sadly, everyone that I know is an iPhone fanboy. I'm the only one with an Android-based phone!

I'm also aware that the ROM has baked-in support for Motorola's media and car docks, though I don't own one to tell you how well it works. I assume its the same code, just stolen from source, and I've NEVER seen anyone complaining about it on Gingerbread. Maybe head over to the Droid 2 Accessories part of the forum and see if there are any complaints.

Per your advice, I ran a couple of more tests, and found the following. In addition to severing the bluetooth connection when streaming audio from Pandora or iHeartRadio and using the steering wheel-mounted controls to initiate a phone call, the bluetooth connection also gets severed in the same manner when streaming sound from YouTube.
Interestingly, it does NOT sever the connection when streaming audio from the local media player or through Play Music when streaming over 3G. However, even in this circumstance, if I hit the steering wheel "Mode" button to switch to AM/FM, it severs the bluetooth connection. If I recall from past tests, this also would also sever Pandora/iHeartRadio, though I didn't repeat that this morning.
So ... it's not just Pandora or iHeartRadio, but some of Google's own software, though sometimes only when switching radio modes and not always when placing a call.
Is anyone out there running CM7.2 connected to a car and able to verify whether the same problems plague CM7.2 as stock 2.3.4?

2.3.4 and the hoops required to root it,
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
it's not that difficult, just need a decent pc
download iso file (50mb),
mount image to cd, dvd, or usb drive
reboot pc to drive
run program, read onscreen instructions, takes about 10 mins or less
wipe cache, reboot
done your rooted
just know how to boot to bootloader and recovery, read http://droid.koumakan.jp/wiki/Welcome
written for d2G, but same steps

Stream Audio over Bluetooth: Yes, possible lag (music pausing/skipping for a split second ) entering menus/rotating screen/unlocking but maybe because I am using power amp or the kernel that I am using
Dock: There is a dock menu in settings that looks to be specific to this phone (as in I have not seen it on other cm7.2 phones) so it may work
Edit: FYI I had a fun (hard) time getting from stock (froyo) to CM7.2. I had to flash the stock (gingerbread) before I could get to 7.2 (Someone here provided me the file to flash which I may be able to dig up)

Well, I hooped myself crazy, am rooted and on 2.3.4 - and the CM7.2 install script still honks that I'm not on the right version.
Anyone else seen this one?
(I realize I'm a little late to the game - I just got a D2 off of craigslist...)

You may need to tweak the Cyanogenmod installer. See the following post for instructions on how to fix. Copying/pasting the instructions here for reference. This worked for me. I ran CM7.2 for quite a while, but eventually got rid of it due to my R2D2 having WiFi issues under CM7.2 (it would sometimes stop having internet connectivity over WiFi, and the only way to fix the issue was to reboot).

GregMoens said:
Look like you're failing the check_kernel script. This was put in place to prevent someone with a Froyo based kernel from flashing a CM version that required the Gingerbread kernel. If you open up the cm-7.2.0-droid2.zip file and look at /system/etc/check_kernel, you'll see that the required kernel version is 2.6.32.9-gca08d89, which matches my Droid2 exactly. I'm assuming your version does not match. That 2.3.4 update must have bumped the kernel version. This new kernel may or may not work with CM7.2.
Couple options I can think of. You could change the required version in the check_kernel script. Or you can blank out that entire file and replace it with:
#!/sbin/sh
exit 0
You could also edit the main update script found under /META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script and delete this line:
assert(run_program("/tmp/check_kernel") == 0);
Just make any of those changes, repackage the zip file, and try flashing that. You could very well get stuck in a bootloop due to the new kernel being incompatible and you may have to SBF back to rooted 2.3.4 and live with that for now. Good luck!

Major issues with recent Android 10 update

The last update is horrible! I am experiencing the following issues. I have been a long time user due of OnePlus phones due to the fast software and generally being bloat-free. Now they have published software with major problems and the stuff with forcing the "Red Cable Club" functionality to some users is just horrible. What is this crap? Why can't their engineers spot these problems a power users can spot in a few days of usage?
I hope they will fix these issues fast, or I will have to look for another phone. Maybe the Google Pixels are fast and bloat-free?
Random FPS drop
The FPS of the phone can randomly drop to about 10. Happens every few days and a reboot fixes this.
Wifi problems
5 GHz wifi seems not to be working properly. Random connection drops.
Proximity sensor always on
Every few days (probably related to making calls) it happens that the proximity sensor still thinks its in a call. It will turn of the screen if my finger passes over the sensor, regardless of what I am doing on the phone.
Vibrating notifications in silent mode
For some notifications, the phone has started to vibrate. Even though I always have the switch in the silent mode setting.

Hi.
- The "Red Cable Club" seems to be only for Indian users, I think you cand disable that app using ADB.
- The performance problems are there since the first beta of 10, with the passing of the updates the performance has been improving but it's still far from Pie (This isn't something specific of this device, even users of the 7 series suffer this problem).
- With 10 and 10.3.0 I had problems with the 5 GHz connection, but it's working fine with 10.3.1.
- In relation to the last two problems, I've never had them.

No problems here. Make sure you have updated to 10.3.1

Fairly new to rooting (again) - I have a OPO6T rooted, with Magisk and TWRP installed running on 10.3.0. Can you point me to how I can update to 10.3.1 please?

My data speeds have been ATROCIOUS since unlocking Tmobile and rooting.
-horrible data speeds on network
-spotty wifi connections
-unable to use data during phone calls while on network (wifi is ok)
-constant taking screenshots (never had this before, buttons havent moved, what changed?)
I started with 10.3.0 and I am now on 10.3.1 and having the same issues.
And, I have another phone (Honor 6x), also with Tmobile and the data speed is much better than the OP6t.
Help. Phone data is almost unbearable anymore.

Hello buddy, i followed those steps..
1. Download 10.3.1 and copy to the main folder of your phone.
2. Download latest @mauronofrio 's twrp zip (3.3.1-31) and copy it somewhere into your phone...
3 Delete all your security stuff such as fingerprints, passwords, etc...
4. Open Magisk and untick all your modules, delete stuff like substratum, reboot...
5. Launch your 10.3.1 update via local, when finished don't reboot...
6. Open Magisk, tap modules, tap plus icon ( + ), select @mauronofrio 's twrp zip, let it flash (yes like a module), don't reboot...
7. Be sure you're connected to the internet, be in the main menu of Magisk, tap install, again install and install into the inactive slot (after OTA).
8. Reboot your device, let it sit for a while and re-set all your stuff.
9. Done, enjoy your new system...
Cheers

Thanks for the reply bud. Silly question time -
1. Where am I downloading 10.3.1 from? I can only see 10.3.0 on the Official Oneplus site.
2. Does the above wipe all my apps and data?

The last update is horrible! I am experiencing the following issues. I have been a long time user due of OnePlus phones due to the fast software and generally being bloat-free. Now they have published software with major problems and the stuff with forcing the "Red Cable Club" functionality to some users is just horrible. What is this crap? Why can't their engineers spot these problems a power users can spot in a few days of usage?
I hope they will fix these issues fast, or I will have to look for another phone. Maybe the Google Pixels are fast and bloat-free?
Random FPS drop
The FPS of the phone can randomly drop to about 10. Happens every few days and a reboot fixes this.
Wifi problems
5 GHz wifi seems not to be working properly. Random connection drops.
Proximity sensor always on
Every few days (probably related to making calls) it happens that the proximity sensor still thinks its in a call. It will turn of the screen if my finger passes over the sensor, regardless of what I am doing on the phone.
Vibrating notifications in silent mode
For some notifications, the phone has started to vibrate. Even though I always have the switch in the silent mode setting.

Also, "Handling Theme" notification seems to pop-up for no apparent reason. Not sure if this process drains battery.

You're right, it's not on the official website, at least I didn't bother doing a thorough search ...
I got it here on XDA in the global builds repo thread ... HERE, signed flashable zips...
and no don't worry, you won't lose your apps and data.
Have a good day
P.S .: it is always recommended to make backups in case something goes wrong ...

Yes, I also noticed this thing, sometimes it seems to appear for no reason ...

Yeah, I am also experiencing this random "handling theme" notification. I hope they fix this soon!

It's not random, it appears briefly each time you install or update an app. I don't see why people are so upset by this thing that lasts 5 secondes.

Face unlock has so far failed to work on android 10 for me - I can setup the face, but unlock never works.
Did a full fresh install - not an upgrade.

People are upset because they have published horrible software with no quality control. Updates, which make performance worse, not better.

Ranting here about OnePlus has strictly no effect, is totally useless. If you're upset enough consider changing your phone instead. Believe me the are many more serious things in life than being that upset for minor things.... Take a breath.

Plus the Fact that OnePlus despite all it's fault, is one of the Fastest OEM's to push out OTA's after Pixel and Essential. They are also the one that provide the longest support (3 years for the OP3 & 3T) and have arguably the best Software Skin, even better than Stock Android on Pixels. Their phones remain fast and snappy in the long run and did I mention they are almost half the Price of Modern Flagships? For me, OOS is alone enough to buy OnePlus phones. Now, regarding your "issues", OnePlus did push out a Hasty update but to their Credit they have been trying to fix it. If you are not satisfied with the Quality then you can either wait or as suggested previously, change your phone to either the 7 or 8 Series or another OEM altogether.
