Guest Viruss Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 I am really sorry if this question was replied here earlier, but I haven't been able to find an answer to this: Has a support for the new orientation sensor that some of the new blades are equipped with been added to the latest CM7 nightlies/recent stable release? Or are the poor blade owners with the new sensor still forced to live with another ROM (such as GSF, which is a really nice ROM, but misses some of the CM7 features)? Finally, if there still is no support for the new sensor, could an owner of the blade with it help in some way in order to help CM7 devloppers adding a support for it? Thanks for clearing this out!

Guest bagge Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Anyone knows if a wipe data is likely to be required going from p7 (sej's build of n179 was it?) to the 7.1.0 stable since there might have been some kernel updates since then?

Guest Kamikaze. Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Sej's rom working nice. No problems yet. I just love the softbuttons. I see 7.1 gone stable... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Daimaah Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 i've had to take my n220+ down, 35gb in under a day is taking the mickey :D 412 downloads plus 23 people who don't understand "no download managers". if anyone else wants it, maybe someone can mirror it. md5sum: b4dcc98ce9bbc4da6d059c9036c116ce Here's a direct link (no captchas or that kind of stuff) to the 220+: http://daimaah.net/mirror/update-cm-7.1.0-Blade-KANG-n220plus-signed.zip not sure about the speeds, but there's no transfer caps so it should be okeish at least :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shouldn't do. I've only ever had to wipe once ever and that was going to gen2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Beyo Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Hi, Yesterday I changed my provider and move to a new one. When I insert the new sim card I get every 2-3 sec that "The process com.android.phone has stopped unexpetedly. Please try again. Force close" and the phone can't get singal. I tried with last nightly and 7.1 stable with complete wipe. If I change to flight mode, restart the device and switch off flight mod, the phone get singal with no error, but it's work only for short time and the error and signal lose return. When I tried with another rom (gsf b27) all work perfect. I search if anyone else got this issue too and found that this is problem with one type of sim that my new provider supply (Cellcom - Israel). I tried also another old sim from the new provider and work it find. when I asked to replace to the old one sim card type I been told that they don't have this type anymore. any suggestions? Thank!

Guest Phil001 Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 (edited) hi all, Just trying CM7 for the first time, come from GSF. Installed 7.1 stable, all seems ok. Can anyone advise of the best way to set it up. i.e, is it best to use another launcher (launcher pro?), any settings I should change for speed etc? and anything else? Cheers ... and what does google apps contain? flashed it but have to install gmail, google maps etc seperately, is this normal?

Guest snowbord Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 (edited) Google Voice Search appears broken - I am getting the market appearing when I try it, searching for pname:com.google.android.voicesearch with 'No results found'. Using CM7.1 final. I do have it installed on the phone, hence am unsure why it is throwing up this error. Google Market online gives 'This app is incompatible with all of your devices.' Suggestions?

Guest targetbsp Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 (edited) ... and what does google apps contain? flashed it but have to install gmail, google maps etc seperately, is this normal? The most important thing you'll notice it include as an end-user is the Market so you can get everything else. The rest is optional and downloaded separately. You can open up the zip and look in apps to see what else it includes if interested. :) Edited October 10, 2011 by targetbsp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest dorcssa Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 (edited) Well, I tried it, flashed my phone with the tpt method to gen2, and used the nightlies for about two weeks, and yeah it looks awesome and all, but my battery lasted about 10 to 13 hours (no matter which nightly I tried, or wiped cache, etc, the display drain kept on going). So I switched back to Swedish Spring rls5, because with that I could achieve 40-50 hours with moderate use (the record was 70 hours!), and at least 20 with heavy use (3g, wifi, lots of gaming, calling, surfing, etc), and it doesnt't seem to change with my phone being gen2, I'm at 20 hours and 52%. I hope CM gets better regarding battery use, because I really like the rom, but long battery time is a must for me.

I dont use 3g though and dont do lots of gaming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jesuita Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Hi, you will have to install s2e (simple2ext) or darktremor's apps2sd script (don't know which is better) and in Cyanogen settings you will have to choose "internal" as location where apps should be installed. Then reboot and the apps will be transfered to the sd-ext partition. Link to s2e on the market: https://market.andro...d=ru.krikun.s2e Hope it helps Wolfgang Hello. I installed Darktremor's script and it seems to be working correctly. When you say to choose internal you really mean internal right? Kind confuses me :) Thanks for the help ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Chris Banks Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Hello. I installed Darktremor's script and it seems to be working correctly. When you say to choose internal you really mean internal right? Kind confuses me :) Thanks for the help ;) Yep, choose internal. The phone is 'tricked' into thinking the partitioned SD-card is internal pone memory. Where as the est of the SD card is still external. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest kokotron Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 What are Tethering choices in 7.1? I remember we only got USB tethering available the last time I checked the rom... I read about Bluetooth tethering in this version, but what matters to me is Wi-Fi. Do we get both USB and Wi-Fi tethering available in this version?

Guest Tom G Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Wi-Fi & USB options, no Bluetooth. (on mine anyway!) There's no option for bluetooth, its just there. Pair the phone with a PC and you'll see the service pop up. A notification is shown on the phone when it's in use. As far as I know USB and wifi work.

Guest downloader50 Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Installed 7.1 after a full wipe etc moved from GSF B26. I can't get the proximity sensor to work tried to calibrate it in the zte blade settings app but doesn't work. Anyone else having problems? Other than this issue all seems good.
