Guest KACE_231 Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 It has nothing to do with that, the light and the proximity sensors are working separated, only problem is that proximity will not work with ligh sensors enabled. When you start a call, proximity is switched on automagically, while light sensors are switched off. But when the prox sensor senses that you've moven your phone away from your ear, it enables light sensor again. Has this issue been fixed with the latest nightlys I also have that annoying problem. The proximity sensor works the first time but as soon as i move my phone away from my ear and then back again the proximity sensor breaks (as in the screen doesnt turn off)
Guest shad0wboss Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 A problem with wifi... When putting blade to sleep, wifi seems to be disconnected...i wonder why no one actually reported this in the bug tracker section....the reported one is way different then this one.... Any fix for that? as it seems to be very annoying when downloading things
Guest lesa0208 Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 -GPS is semi fixed (some user including me still have minor problems) -accellerometer is fixed -charging bug is fixed edit : make sure you get the fixed N72 (otherwise screen rotation doesnt work and you are stuck in landscape mode) or get N73 where i can finde that fixed n72?

Would be great if you could logcat it and create the ticket.

Any fix for that? as it seems to be very annoying when downloading things This issue was already described lots of times in this topic. IIRC, an app called Blade Wifi Fix, available on the market, solved it for some. Just have a look a few pages back from here and you will find messages about it. I assume the issue was not reported in the tracker because it's specific to nightlies, and the rule is that nightlies' issues should not be reported in the tracker...
Guest Aab2011 Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 where i can finde that fixed n72? *stares up a few posts above yours and shakes his head, ashamed to be human*
Guest Aab2011 Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 (edited) Seems like some members treat a forum like IRC or something, as they expect to only find answers after their own post. Either that or their mouse has a dodgy scroll wheel :/ Edited May 17, 2011 by Aab2011
Guest _amano Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 (edited) hanks for this explanation! It sure helps to understand what lies behind this bug/specific behaviour. However, what could explain the change of behaviour since N73? The difference will be http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#change,5280 . There they reverted a fix, the disabled the light sensor when not being used. It seems that the fix is recommended for the blade but caused problems on the wildfire.

Guest Aab2011 Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 (edited) *stares at a few pages back, were people mentioned having it on N72, and only happens when auto brightness is on* Perhaps, but I am restricting my search to what I can scroll to without clicking the page back button. The point I am making is, that the answer probably already exists if you look back to at least the date when the last nightly it worked on was released. ** It's getting to the point where almost every day, someone asks what the battery life is like for a nightly that was released a few hours before. (** implying that people are impatient buggers) Edited May 17, 2011 by Aab2011

As i said earlier, that program ONLY reconnects the wifi when screen turns on...the wifi being disconnected when phone goes to sleep is not fixed by that app thus remaining there...
Guest Grain Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 (edited) ** It's getting to the point where almost every day, someone asks what the battery life is like for a nightly that was released a few hours before. (** implying that people are impatient buggers) I guess part of the problem is that there are actual CM Blade users now who do not know what to do really since there's no simple (end user) guide anymore. The old CM topic included this in the first post. The current first post is a good collection of links but lacks the most crucial information ("What ROM file should I install and what are the problems to expect with it?"). So, again: Current state of CyanogenMod for the Blade Yes, users, CLICK ON THAT LINK! :) Edit: Viktor, thanks for adding that link to the first post! :unsure: Edited May 17, 2011 by Grain

The WiFi issue is a hardware problem existant on all ROM's the only way round it is to prevent the phone from sleeping and thus prevent the wifi from disconnecting in the first place. Use an app called "advanced Wifi Lock" from the market. This will however use a little more battery, so dont complain about CM7 causing battery drains Edited May 17, 2011 by KACE_231

Guest champrock Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 I am on N74, but this issue was with me when I was on N69 also. Sometimes, the RED light is on no matter what I do. And it automatically goes off after an hour or so. I checked and I have no pending messages, no pending missed calls, no pending alerts. But the red light is just on uselessly anyone else faces this issue?
Guest u116040 Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 (edited) From http://wiki.modaco.com/index.php/ZTE_Blade_CyanogenMod : Since N1: Wifi disconnects when phone goes to sleep This is a hardware limitation and present in stock ROMs, too. The Wifi chip cannot keep the connection without help of the CPU. Typically the Wifi connection basically drops when the Blade goes to sleep, then is re-established when it is woken up. Of course this breaks downloads and some types of services (chat...). A workaround is installing apps that keep the CPU active. This of course causes high battery drain. What about setting "Never" in Wifi sleep policy ? My downloads are ok with this. Edited May 17, 2011 by u116040
Guest Fou-lu Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 will add "tips" on the wiki page for CM7, it will be useful for newbies i hope.
Guest ups Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 Fou-lu: Some comments on the Wiki Page: Note this is reboots, not shutdowns, so do not confuse this with the bug described above. Above? The other bug was probably removed but this reference stayed.
Guest k0zmic Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 (edited) The fix list for the next nightly looks huge. Nothing Blade specific yet though. Edited May 17, 2011 by k0zmic
Guest Fou-lu Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 Fou-lu: Some comments on the Wiki Page: Above? The other bug was probably removed but this reference stayed. didn't write that, the wiki page is editable so we all can help and keep it updated for the community

Guest Fou-lu Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 (edited) battery temperature readings When sleeping, battery temperature readings are unreliable. Android does an emergency shutdown at 68°C that sometimes gets triggered by this. Unfortunately there is no proper notification - the phone just powers down. A workaround added about April 9th is not complete. The phone will still power down this bug don't exist anymore? never had and reboots / shutdown on N72-fixed, or even N67.

Guest andyr99 Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 I am on N74. When I made a call today, it sounded as if I could hear noises from my microphone in the earpiece. I couldn't continue the conversation, so hung up and tried again - second time the reception was fine. I noticed this with previous nightlies as well - before the call connected, I could hear noises from my microphone, but this hasn't continued through into the call before. Anyone else had this?

And it automatically goes off after an hour or so. I checked and I have no pending messages, no pending missed calls, no pending alerts. But the red light is just on uselessly anyone else faces this issue? I only get this if I have no phone signal, otherwise the LEDs behaviour seems normal to me.
