[Q] CM7

Just installed "CyanogenMod-7 for ZTE Blade (Orange San Francisco) :: V7.0.0-RC4 (30/03/2011)"
Firstly, many thanks for making this great rom. Instructions very easy to follow, even I could do it (my first smart phone, only had it 5 days so yes, it’s all very new to me).
Anyway, can someone please help me? On my old Orange rom, when sending a text (which is what I do a lot of) my “send to many logo” is missing from the CM7 rom (see pics). How can I get this back? It's driving me nut!

Try Another SMS App Like GOSMS or Handcent SMS

Rebooting and Battery usage
My zte with CM7 seems to use alot more battery than the original ROM i had. anyone else?
It will also reboot when the battery is lower than 30%. anybody know why?

The current CM7 rom is faulty, don't flash it....i'm also waiting for a more stable one. This rom is not so reactive to accelerometer so if you play games such as doodlejump, it won't work so don't flash the rom, instead you can flash this froyo, it's quite fast as well ! FLB froyo R11

Gen2
Hi All
Just flashed my Blade to Gen 2 yesterday and installed CM7 Gen2 .
On previous CM7 Final Gen 1, I had reboots and freezing on boot screen but
have had no issues since the new installation. Plays games very well.

Edit: Just upgraded CM7 to 7.0.2 and on reboot phone was stuck on boot screen and had no arrow
to swipe nor would menu button work other than to put phone in standby. Had to uses stock recovery to get cm7 to load and now
cannot get beyond the the Droid screen when trying to restore/backup. Will not enter clockwork recovery no matter what I try.
Can load CM7 basic but no google apps and unable to load gapps because I cannot enter clockwork recovery. Can any suggest a way out.

Use rom manager to install the latest clockwork mod
Sent from my Blade using XDA Premium App

So what's best for now: staying Gen 1 with CM7 v7.0.0 or turning into Gen2 and get v7.0.2 ?

HI
Thanks for the reply but I have tried to download the latest ClockworkMod via Rom Manager and the same thing happens it tries to update and then freezes
on the droid screen. I can't get to the market as I cannot load gapps because
of the lack of ClockworkMod recovery. Catch 22 time. Any other suggestions greatly received.

Hi HCDR.Jacob
Me again. Have just found out why I cannot load ClockworkMod Recovery or any other recovery. Ran Androot 1.6 andgot reply, when I tried to unroot - Not Rooted.
So I ran Androot and got the following "Rooted - No - Fu - Goo". Yet Balde is running CM7 . Question is now how do I root the blooming thing or is that a no go?
Please advise.

Edit: Have found possible fault is corrupt firmware. I s there any way to flash the firmware on the Blade to original state and if so how?

Google for no fu goo m8, it's a very common response and can sometimes be solved.

Hi
Thanks for that but info garnered no where near to solving prob. Managed to find z4Root and ran that and it informs me I am still rooted. Problem is that I cannot access ClockworkMod Recovery and rom manager is stuck on 3.0.2.0 and will not upgrade to 4.2.0.0 which is the latest as far as I can ascertain. Do you know of any way to get ClockworkMod back onto my Blade so that I cam upgrade CM to 7.0.2 and get google apps back.

I just upgraded my ZTE Blade to 7.0.2 using the latest Rom Manager (from 7 RC3) ... now my Blade just keeps booting only showing the Droid Logo for about 4 secs and that loops forever. I wasn't aware of any Gen1 vs. Gen2 thing. And am still not sure what this exactly is.
Is there anyway to fix this, or is the device bricked?
Any ideas? Any help is VERY MUCH appreciated!
Thx.

Just gave you a possible tweak on your thread but please don't just splash your problem onto the other threads, as this is most likely to create confusion. If somebody can help you, he will answer you in the right thread: the one you opened.
Also a first look at similar topic or a quick search would have avoided this kind of situation. Even the first guide for flashing a custom ROM on the OSF clearly states a warning on the Gen1/Gen2 thing...

I wouldn't have cross-posted if the topic wasn't CM7. Maybe it stops someone to make the same mistake -> see below.

Didn't know about the site and wasn't aware of the Gen1/Gen2 issue.
I wanted to show a friend (iPhone owner) how easy it is to update the firmware using ROM Manager over a beer and simple downloaded CM7.0.2 using ROM Manager, not being aware of any Gen1/Gen2 issues...
well EPIC FAIL!
So, thx for the url and won't be crossposting again.

Can't imagine your friend's face facing your endlessly rebooting phone. Indeed pretty epic

I tried cm7 had gps reboots and then when clicked settings got black screen

I've installed this ROM (CM7.02Nightly57 + CWM 3.0.2.7) yesterday, but having some troubles:
- the battery is duying very fast
- the pulldown menu can not be pulled up easy in normal mode. When in landcape it works nice, but when in portrait, it is stuck in the bottom, and you can pull it up after several times, or have to press back button
anyone has issues like this?

Autonomy issues have already been widely reported for 7.0.2, most people I have read from went back on CM7.0 stable because of that.
For the menu, this might be a new issue. Perhaps check on CM7 forum to see if it has been reported yet and whether a fix has been found yet.

All custom ROMS here are for the A500 so far, nothing for A501. You DID backup your existing ROM, didn't you? It tells you too in the CWM thread!
If you didn't, you're boned until someone else posts an A501 rom dump.

Sorry to hear that but you have to do alot of ready before you do anything and backup everything to be on the safe side.Hopefully someone with a backup for your original rom comes along to help you out good luck.

Too bad, because the devs may have been able to use it to create some custom with more 3G support on A500 with the A501.

Yes i know its my foult I dont know why i didnt backup Rom changing is so automatic for me after a huge collection of android phones ...

try to put the 3.1 update from taiwan... the config does have settings for 3G (normally)

I did a similar thing as ble3e (I'm using Acer Recovery Installer) but when I tried to restore after finding this removed all 3G functions the backup appears to be corrupted (looks like a faulty media card) and fails
I tried the leaked 3.1 update.zip but it is also for the A500 and has no code for the 3G
Desperately looking for an A501 rom image from anyone who has a good backup ... help

You mean this china firmware leaked one ?

yes, or wait seems some people got the "update" notification, so soon will get update.zip official I feel
but I do have the 3G settings on my A500 with the ROM I use, so... I dunno what the tablet A501 got over the A500 (about the settings)
oh the leaked one was an alpha testing btw haha
they probably checked how many left over bugs was there and then fixed them hopefully
no A501 in my country so... can't help more, but I confirm to have the APN and 2G/3G settings on my A500 I just checked it

try virtous galaxy.. it has sms application and has apn in setting,.

Unfortunately none of custom roms have support for mobile . Options in wireless connections are visible but problem is whit network searching ... So I'm still waiting for stock rom for iconia a501

I contacted Acer support about an upgrade fro the A501 to HC3.1 - looks like we will have to wait until Q3 or Q4 for this. Here's theri response:
Unfortunately the 3.1 update will not be available for A501 tablets, instead they will be updated to 3.2 by Q3 or Q4 of this year which will of course include all the changes from 3.1 and much more.
Still looking for a stock rom for the A501.

cant you just ask acer to provide the full original rom so u can just flash it ?

Just backed up my a501 rom yesterday. Will upload it a little later on today.

Thanks for help . My tablet is working again

You mean to tell me that all the a500 roms (even with the a500 battery saving app available from the market which makes a500's stop searching for 3g connection to save battery) have a completely crippled APN configuration area and theres not even an update we can flash over the top to enable it??
Why would they need an app to stop it looking for 3g connection if the 3g connection was compeltely crippled anyway?

Acer Day Planner

Is there a way to get the Acer Day Planner app, which comes in the A100?

My guess download the .apk from system dump and modify .build prop THOUGH I could be completely wrong..
So download system dump, or a100 rom if acceptable then take the desired .apk out if it doesn't work right off the bat which im assuming it won't you will need to edit the .build prop ...
Hope this helps hit the thanks if it does!

Thanks, I'm gonna look for a A100 rom...
EDIT: I've tried it and it didn't work on the A500... unfortunately. As you said... Who knows if Acer release a "10.1" version of this nice app...

Did you try it and what happens?

After installed, the app loads in portrait mode, because of the A100 specs, I think... no problem about that, but... when I touched on "Start" to configure it, then I got force close everytime I tried it.
It didn't work absolutely.

I don't know what to do with it dry bud..
Sent from my A500 using Tapatalk

The app has dependencies. Namley the email and calendar apps. So chances are those and who knows what else needs to go into it. I have to agree its probably the best planner app out there. Would be nice to get an effort to port it. If we find all the parts for it chances are it should be doable. Might explain the force closes. I could be way off as I am in the process of trying. But if it works it should just be as simple as having a set of apps to copy to whatever device (ideally I'd like it to work on my phone too but that might be asking too much lol)

It's locked in portrait. It from the A100 so I guess that is the way it is.

You need to flash the zip with custom cwm (recovery)
Or you need to put it in system/app but for that you need also root acces.

[Q] MZ605, no ICS?

hi, i am from argentina and I have a motorola xoom mz605 (wifi - 3G) and i want to update to ICS, so I looked for ICS ROMs for my device, but i couldn't find one (neither Teameos nor official). I found roms for WiFi and 3G/4G verizon (and i think there is one version of teameos called everest, for mz601, or something like that) but not for my device.
Is there an official software update for my device? Or an unofficial one?
Is teameos developing a rom for this device?
Is this device fully compatible with MZ601 ROMS?
May I help to develop one? (Testing roms..)
I know there are ways to run ICs on my device, but i want to run it with 3G working
THANKS A LOT

I would suggest that you do some research on the differences, if any, between the 3G service in US vs. 3G in Argentina. If they are similar than you can give team Eos MZ601 ICS a go. If they are different, you can contact team Eos and either request a ROM that supports your service there or ask how to modify it yourself. The devs at team Eos are great and if they are unable to do it for you, I'm sure they could steer you in the right direction to modify one of their current ROMs.

Thanks, Can you please tell me where i can find team eos mz601 rom and how to get in touch with team eos? I am new here... please help me

Hi.
I have a MZ605 that had Tiamat 3.2. I performed a Factory wipe and installed Eos-umts_everest-11 and EOS_GApps_ics_4.0.3_v10.4.
It seemed to work fine but I noticed it restarts once in a while, in an hour of use it spontaneously restarted several times. Once when ending a Skype videochat, another time when loading theverge.com, and a few times more.
Has anyone had this type of issue? Any recommendations?
