[ROM][GEN2]CyanogenMod 7 (Android 2.3.7)

[Guest yamahaxjr]

its not a white model by any chance is it?

my sister's gen1 on froyo displayed that behaviour - it would charge but never get anywhere near 100%, also it wasn't great from her laptop either.

now she charges from the back of her desktop pc and it charges fine - not enough juice on front/laptop connectors i guess, dunno why wall charger doesn't work though.

only trouble i ever had with my grey oled gen1 on froyo is when using a car charger - the battery percentage seem to drop rather than increase lol. not tried on cm7 (now gen2) though.

No, it is black model and it is gen2

I'm on N72 and i noticed "kernel update" in the update list so i'm curious about flashing N73 or not?

[Guest AdwiL]

This kernel_update repairs only 'landscape-only-mode' :unsure:

so no point of jumping to N73?

[Guest AdwiL]

Not really, no more bugs have been fixed.

if you've patched n72 to not have the landscape screen, then no not really.

looking at the changelog there's nothing exciting going into n74 either: http://cm-nightlies.appspot.com/?device=blade

edit: uh oh i smell trouble ahead, looks like the slide-keyboard revert is being unreverted and the release updated to use the fixed kernel instead: http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#change,5312

I still get gps reboots with n73

A day with n73:

+Fast

+All the tweaks of CM

+Correct routing of audio with Skype, SIP accounts

+OpenVPN

- GPS reboots / once with Maps, once with OSMAND /

- cannot stop wireless / battery drains drastically /

- 4 hours - 40 percent battery drain - no 3G, no Dialer drain

- Gapps problems - missing Maps, etc.

- Last but not least: NO FM RADIO SUPPORT - ridiculous / Maybe We MUST meet CM and Androko ???? / !!!

Conclusion: Back to SS5

[Guest champrock]

N74 is out. anyone tried it yet?

[Guest cool400]

@all:

Accidently I deleted the main-menu-symbol with the telephone- and the globe-symbol beneath at the bottom of the home-screen :-(

Could anyone tell me how to get them back??? I'm to able anymore to enter the main-menu, and you know one really needs these buttons!

And another problem is, that my WLAN/WiFi always disconnects when I turn out the phone for a longer time. I always have to disable and re-enable it again to make it work.

Is there a way to make WLAN stay?

BTW, I'm using CM7.0.3!

Best regards

I am on N74, and everything seems to be working fine. The only thing that still bothers me is the battery drain.

When that happens to me I just reboot the phone and it comes back.

+1

fix battery drain from dialler and cm7 will be golden.

Lol. You have brought up the hidden dockbar by sliding your finger up at the bottom. This is for more shortcuts. Just slide your finger down at the bottom where the dock would be :unsure:

[Guest markiemannie]

GPS/Dialer bug still present here, but those are the last issues with this ROM. All other things are just perfect! Running N71.5

Download "Blade Wifi Fix" from market (free) - install it - forget about the problem forever...

Uhm, no? Wifi-Fix doesn't make Wifi stay, it just re-enables it after waking up the phone. So the connection is disconected anyway.

If you want so keep wifi running when locking the phone, you might try this: https://market.android.com/details?id=jp.mi...dou.regpon.wifi

Me too. There is already an open issue to discuss the dialer bug in the tracker? I'm noticing a constant increasing in sensor using by my dialer and I want to report it somehow..

Not necessary. The problem is nightlies only (right?) and nightly bugs are not allowed on the issue tracker. Also, devs are well aware of the problem.

Depends what you need to do i guess, former works for my needs - horses for courses i guess.

yeah.... but I can't make it go away deliberately and I can't make it come back deliberately either. Rebooting is quicker.

True, Wifi Fix solves one problem, Regpon does another one :unsure:

Go to ADW Settings - Hidden Dockbar an clear, if it is set.

With N73, the accelerometer lag seems to be gone, at least for me.

I have tested this with many nightlies, but with N73 it seems to be as smooth as froyo.

But, I can't say anything about the behaviour of the accelerometer after some hours of time.
