Guest Tom G Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 Im currently running nightly 217, becuase I downloaded 218 three times today and each time the zip was corrupted, but 217 downloaded first time. I'm having a few problems to say the least. First off, Gmail and Market have stopped working, or rather, they both keep coming up with a 'no connection' and a 'retry' dialog box. The regular email app works a treat. Also, if I add an app to my homescreen, the icon won't appear. The first few times I just tried adding it again, and the icon appeared the second time, then I discovered I had the icon from the first time under the second one. Oh, and every now and again for no reason I can find the 'use 2G only' box is being checked so my 3G gets turned off. Seriously, I really want to use CM7, but I'm having to consider going back to GSF because I've spent nearly a whole day trying to get it to work like a smartphone, and it's just too much effort. Any help with any of the above would be greatly appreciated. Okay, just discovered, after reinstalling gapps (gapps-gb-20110828-signed) that the Gmail icon has now completely vanished from the app drawer, but Market is still there. Stranger and stranger. The problem is probably google, not CM7. I've been having trouble with the market for the past 2 days (since new version installed), on both the blade and p990. My p990 hasn't been flashed for a while and was working fine before the update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ritterkeks Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 for the people without wifi at home + limited data plan: if your laptop/desktop computer which is connected to the internet at least has wifi built in,you could simply turn this into a wifi access point which shares its internet connection. would be much simpler, you can use some software to do this. and even if no real AP is possible, i think new CM builds support ad-hoc wifi. the other way with reverse rndis tethering works too, at least someone has mentioned it in this thread, alongside the commands which you have to execute on your rooted blade and on the computer. ---- for me n218 works good, and regarding md5 hash: this one started with a zero, so i guess the hasher which is used for the nightly downoad pages simply left it out. but the file seems to be correct. while everything else works fine, i still have the bluetooth crash when using my avrcp headset. also with stock player. :-( last time i had to take the batter out, as it froze completely. if i just could try with a non avrcp headset, to see if thats the problem. will just carry the good old wired headphones with me until someone will hopefully find a fix for it.

I used this one month ago, I can confirm it is possible (& a bit easier with http://www.connectify.me/), only with no encryption though :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It can see it, but will never actually connect :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest giopego Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 hi, I installed yesterday night cm7 n217 on my blade, all ok expect for the proximity sensor but quickly resolved with a single calibration with the included tool. I notice a not good response from the light sensor, but isn't a problem. thanks for the job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MidaMilunk Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 The problem is probably google, not CM7. I've been having trouble with the market for the past 2 days (since new version installed), on both the blade and p990. My p990 hasn't been flashed for a while and was working fine before the update. Kinda confirmed. I have also experienced problems with market (I use the ol one with oldmarket). It freezed (and rebooted) two times in sequence two days before. This issue just disappeared without touching anything... Does not seem to be some operating system, or framework issue... but this is just a feeling.

I would suggest doing a full wipe and flashing again. Sounds too strange indeed to be a CM problem. Also, be careful if you're restoring apps from backups, this might cause some unwanted behavior also! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest reldavidson Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 Just installed N218; so far so good. Just wondering about a fews things: - when accessing the app drawer it does lag a bit; can i speed it up? Stock ADW - when phone sleeps is there anyway to wake without pressing the power button? I know there is an option for volume up and down but they do not seem to work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest gtse Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 Just installed n219, and just can't install Google Apps! I've tried gapps-gb-20110307-signed, gapps-gb-full-20110815-signed, gapps-gb-20110828-signed, no results. Actually, the zip installs successfully but there is no Market (or any other g-app) after the reboot. Has anyone ran into this? Could it be not the ROMs problem but the wrong gapps zip? In that case, is there any link to a working one? Also, how can I add the google account? On Settings - Accounts and Sync - Add Account there is no option for Google. Thanks in advance! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest andy9876 Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 I have just tried to install the latest nightly and it all went fine except it did not recognise my EXT2 partition. Does it require a different type or am I doing something wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope it works for you EDIT: Sorry, I didn't read your whole message :S You can try to re-install n219, maybe it's just because a little installation error.

Thanks in advance! :) What size is your system partition? If its less than 140mb, its probably too small. If it is 140mb, you could try the 160 one and see if that fixes it.

Guest t0mm13b Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 (edited) Google is not available as an option. How can I check the partition size? Plug in cable and adb shell or launch terminal and enter this df -h . The second column 'Size' tells you how big the partitions are, which can be linked to the 'Mounted on' column from the same output. :) For example: # df -h Filesystem Size Used Available Use% Mounted on tmpfs 210.7M 32.0K 210.7M 0% /dev tmpfs 210.7M 0 210.7M 0% /mnt/asec tmpfs 210.7M 0 210.7M 0% /mnt/obb /dev/block/mtdblock5 160.0M 134.7M 25.3M 84% /system /dev/block/mtdblock6 294.4M 181.6M 112.8M 62% /data /dev/block/mtdblock4 2.0M 1.2M 832.0K 59% /cache /dev/block/mtdblock6 294.4M 181.6M 112.8M 62% /cache/download /dev/block/vold/179:1 7.4G 2.4G 5.0G 33% /mnt/sdcard /dev/block/vold/179:1 7.4G 2.4G 5.0G 33% /mnt/secure/asec /dev/block/dm-0 2.0M 536.0K 1.5M 26% /mnt/asec/com.androirc-1 In this case, /system is 160Mb.

Leds are just fine :) i'm not sure what all the fuss was about with smartass2, to me it seems slower to ramp up than any other governor and i can't see its any better battery-wise. dunno about lcd's as its been so long i can't remember what they were supposed to do!

Guest targetbsp Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 I'm still trying to actually compile a rom lol. It's timing out when I sync. Apparently this is caused by using git:// instead of http:// when you init the repo in ubuntu on a virtual machine. Following a guide to change it after the event didn't help so I've started again with http :'( The led's stay lit whilst the phone sleeps to alert you to missed calls and texts if you weren't near the phone.

Guest Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 (edited) @sej,I noticed in your signature 219+ are u still sharing your + builds,as I can not see any builds in your usual place ? I am still on your patchset 7 build because I cant do without the softkeys,I find them so useful. Even tried button savior,but its no comparison to having them in notification bar. And to be honest,I can find no fault with p7 build,so will be keeping a backup of it,just in case it was the last build you upload.

Guest Mettafox Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 I read somewhere, I'm don't remember where, that, the Samsung had plans to buy the CyanogenMod, and use the CM rom's for future Samsung devices. I don't know if this is true or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
