Guest gnlcp Posted February 16, 2011 Report Posted February 16, 2011 yes, i've got it automatically detected (happy with 32mb). if it doesn't happen try a2sd check or a2sd help My sd was paritioned with 312 mb of swap (if I remember exactly). Is it automaticaly working? or should I activate it through gscript?
Guest Riekr Posted February 16, 2011 Report Posted February 16, 2011 My sd was paritioned with 312 mb of swap (if I remember exactly). Is it automaticaly working? or should I activate it through gscript? from adb shell if you type "a2sd check" you will get: Swap - [ ] Partition present.

What amount of swap do u suggest me to have? btw how does swap work? I can't have more than 60 mb of ram.. I usually have 30/40 max after using it for awhile.. i Think it's low Edited February 16, 2011 by gnlcp
Guest jayziac Posted February 16, 2011 Report Posted February 16, 2011 (edited) I think the first page should be updated with clearer installation instructions, so that everyone has installed using the same procedures (so that everyone can reproduce the same problems), also mention DO NOT overclock when reporting problems. I would also suggest marking the older patches with OLD / OPTIONAL in front so people can quickly see what's required to get the latest version. Finally, maybe a FAQ (frequently asked question) section would be helpful, questions such as moving apps from SD to system, governor settings..etc. P.S. I work in software quality assurance (not Acer), and these procedures help resolve problems quicker for everyone. Edited February 16, 2011 by jayziac

I can't have more than 60 mb of ram.. I usually have 30/40 max after using it for awhile.. i Think it's low i'm happy with 32mb of swap and 10% compcache. i would not increase swap size since the system may become slow when swapping. sometime i disable compcache since it seems to me that it slows down the phone but i'm still experimenting with it so nothing as a truth :D another thing: android tends to keep applications in memory to fill the available ram and improve responsiveness but this ram is freed when another app requires more memory so simply looking at free ram is not a good index of the actual performance of the phone. the best is to try, with my a1 liquid i will stay at 32mb of swap :D
Guest drivard Posted February 16, 2011 Report Posted February 16, 2011 Use Go sms, it is the BEST sms app and the led light works perfectly I will definitely look into this though my thoughts are the incompatibility may be across several apps (but thanks :D)
Guest gnlcp Posted February 16, 2011 Report Posted February 16, 2011 can I add themes to this rom? I mean adding to the themes already existing in rom, I need a pink theme for my girlfriend.. Is there any way to add it?
Guest Uberadri Posted February 16, 2011 Report Posted February 16, 2011 Thank you so much to everyone who have contributed to this rom and all the other roms/kernels/code it's based on! :D :D It is definitely the best rom so far (and I have used many since i got my Liquid at launch)! Have anyone tested the chocolate kernel on EAP / PEAP encrypted WiFi (where you log in with individual user name and password)? in setcpu, choose nexus one as your device Any reason not to let it autodetect Liquid?

I mean adding to the themes already existing in rom, I need a pink theme for my girlfriend.. Is there any way to add it? If you search "cm7" in the market there are a few themes that show up, not sure if there is a pink one yet or not,
Guest drivard Posted February 17, 2011 Report Posted February 17, 2011 Use Go sms, it is the BEST sms app and the led light works perfectly This did not fix my problem also it seems like a direct copy of handcent...
Guest miho87 Posted February 17, 2011 Report Posted February 17, 2011 (edited) Has anyone problems with the media library? In my case, the artist tags aren't recognized. So all songs are listed under "unknown artist"; the other tags (album, title) are correct... Edit: I have deleted all files and moved them again on the sd card - now it works. :D Edited February 17, 2011 by miho87
Guest The Duke of Hazard Posted February 17, 2011 Report Posted February 17, 2011 This did not fix my problem also it seems like a direct copy of handcent... Don't know, for me led lights are working correctly...try to rewipe and reflash everything, naybe you forgot to wipe something or you have a base bin not 100% compatible...Anyway to all the wipe & flash operations I suggest Clockworkmod recovery, it seems it works better than malez one... And then gosms is faster than handcent and designed for HD devices and it has got many good themes to choose, just try it a couple of days.
Guest gnlcp Posted February 17, 2011 Report Posted February 17, 2011 If you search "cm7" in the market there are a few themes that show up, not sure if there is a pink one yet or not, wow, there are so many themes on the market suitable for cm7, even a pink one. thank u very much for your advice :D :D this morning happened one more problem, after turning on my phone the carrier network wasn't found and even when I set it from settings the phone gave me back network error. I rebooted many times, and then after turning on wifi,data connection, airplanemode twice netork was find.. it happened days ago and I couldn't solve that problem but I restored my nandroid.. does somebody know why happens? what's the problem?

First your welcome : ) Second, i have that problem evorytime i reboot the phone, and i have to go into settings to enable. I have just gotten used to it. If is says network error, if you leave it for a couple minutes it will eventually work
Guest KeruDoitsu Posted February 17, 2011 Report Posted February 17, 2011 (edited) Sorry, double post =( Edited February 17, 2011 by KeruDoitsu
Guest KeruDoitsu Posted February 17, 2011 Report Posted February 17, 2011 I did have that problem only once =o About themes, search for redbread free, I like it so far :D

I have just gotten used to it. If is says network error, if you leave it for a couple minutes it will eventually work So do u suggest me just to wait for a few minutes so that the network comes, or should I go to setting to enable it? what do u mean by enambling it? search for network?
Guest monoxide.tryst Posted February 17, 2011 Report Posted February 17, 2011 So do u suggest me just to wait for a few minutes so that the network comes, or should I go to setting to enable it? what do u mean by enambling it? search for network? I just search for network, and it connect 9/10 times. If you get network error, leave for a min or two and then try again, and sometimes if you just leave it all together, it will connect automatically after a couple minutes. Im sure they will get that fixed sooner or later

Guest L0cu7us Posted February 17, 2011 Report Posted February 17, 2011 Anyway to all the wipe & flash operations I suggest Clockworkmod recovery, it seems it works better than malez one... how to install this recovery ? I've tried rom manager but it is unable to install the recovery... thanks

Guest famiddi Posted February 17, 2011 Report Posted February 17, 2011 Just installed. Speed is not so impressive as someone says. Are there some modification in the CyanogenMod tool wich allow some extra boost? Proximity sensor seems to not work. I flashed the patch after the Rom and the new kernel. In the phone application, is there smart dialing function?
Guest Joshuah Posted February 17, 2011 Report Posted February 17, 2011 how to disable proximity sensor in this ROM until the bug is resolved?
Guest Ximo F. Verde Posted February 17, 2011 Report Posted February 17, 2011 (edited) Howdy ho! Playing around with CM7, time for some more FBack. Battery life. Trying to find out what is killing it. Last night at 21h30 the phone was taken out of AC power (at 100%) and it dropped to 23% until today at 11h30! No calls were made, last night i spent about an hour and a half playing around (surfing, gmaps, earth) on wifi in which period i lost a little less than 20% battery (!). Before this evluation i had already removed the scrollable news widget for XDA, and only left the android calendar widget and the cyanogen's renderFX widget (none to be causing this in my belief). The phone is OC'ed @ 921MHz which i find it to be very stable, and in interactive mode as suggested by devs. On battery usage and for the last 14h i get 46% cell standby and 42% on phone idle (also 5% for wifi and display and 3% for maps), so its safe to assume that its got something to do with 3g/hspa network (i dont want to try only 2g network because it defies the purpose a bit) or maybe with the clock speed when idle (?). I really dont know what else to try in terms of benchmarking or/and battery saving, without losing some important funcionality or OC abillity, both of which are essential for me if im gonna stay with this ROM. I am willing to try any suggested solution in order to help (as much as i can not being a dev) the further developent of this ROM and more than everything get stop that battery life dissapearing in front of my eyes in real-time (literally). Any suggestions/ideas/magic spells? Thanx X. EDIT: During the night i had actually shut data connection and was on 2G only! Still battery life was sucked out like mad...
