Guest kallt_kaffe Posted April 6, 2011 Report Share Posted April 6, 2011 does somebody open an enhanchment request at http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issue...p;ts=1300288235 so CM team knows about GEN1 and GEN2 BLade phones ? think it will be also a good idea to infornm rommanager team to prevent that people install wrong CWM. Jacob knows what needs to be done. This is just a fix to use while we wait for the official project to catch up. It's easy to build a kernel for Gen2 and put it in manually but to make the automatic build generate a universal install that works on both Gen1 and Gen2 propably need some planning.

Guest CaptainSpectacular Posted April 6, 2011 Report Share Posted April 6, 2011 I was on SS RLS3, everthing was fine. I installed CM7-N36 on GEN2 blade and windows 7 now unable to recognize my blade. Tried updating the drivers several times but in vain. I don't have this prob. Just flashed without any trouble and Windows 7 recognize my Blade just like before.

Guest solidchips Posted April 6, 2011 Report Share Posted April 6, 2011 (edited) CM7 N36 windows 7 not recognized the device. Switched to CM7-RC4, everything is working. No problem for win7 to detect blade this time. Edited April 6, 2011 by solidchips Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hudasp Posted April 6, 2011 Report Share Posted April 6, 2011 (edited) I cannot move app from data storage to SD card (in app settings). If I move app to SD card, phone is self-restarting. Is it only my problem, or is it problem with patched kernel? CM7 RC4, GEN2 phone. Edited April 6, 2011 by hudasp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JayGB1982 Posted April 7, 2011 Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 (edited) Good to see your fix for CM7 GEN2 Blade's KK Nice work! People like you are a credit to to community :D Do GEN2's also reproduce the GPS reboot? Are you plan on adding any other optimisations to CM7? The boot time performance governor from SS / JJ is one which springs to mind B) Edited April 7, 2011 by JayGB1982 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Halsfluss Posted April 8, 2011 Report Share Posted April 8, 2011 Fantastic, nice work :) After the installation it stuck on the Android logo, but after another reboot it works great. Maybe not the right place to ask, but does anyone know whether the Android 2.2 Gen 2-phones sold by Comviq in Sweden have received some security enhancements regarding carrier lock? I've tried both Sweden Spring RLS4 and now this CM7 with my Telenor SIM-card, but none of them works. I'm being prompted for my PIN, but I don't get any reception. I remember reading kallt_kaffe writing somewhere that at least SS RLS4 would ignore carrier checks? Well well, thanks once more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rizzler Posted April 8, 2011 Report Share Posted April 8, 2011 (edited) Has anyone tested this on the new CM7 N37? Nevermind, it worked. Edited April 8, 2011 by Rizzler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new Comviq 2.2 phones are as easy as the old ones to unlock, helped a friend just a few days ago with exactly this. Check that your IMEI has not turned into zero after the upgrade. If it is still OK then try another SIM. There are several who have needed to replace there SIM cards after upgrading to official 2.2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah ok, I'll see if I can get hold of another SIM from Telenor or another carrier. My Telenor-SIM is from early '04 so that might be the problem. When I tried it with the Comviq-ROM it even said "No SIM", but obviously it was found since it asked for PIN, and some Telenor-specific stuff was available in a menu. I checked the IMEI and it remained the same between the ROM changes. Thanks for your reply btw :) /Magnus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Halsfluss Posted April 9, 2011 Report Share Posted April 9, 2011 A new SIM-card solved it. Everything seems to work fine now :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sm4tik Posted April 10, 2011 Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 I thought I'd give CM7 a spin while waiting for the official release and installed N37 last night. So far everything's been pure goodness. Thanks again KK, well done! BTW, I used the saunalahti_rils.zip from SS thread, maybe you should add a hint for saunalahti people trying this for the first time? (Though the gen1/2 checking won't be necessary since we're all on gen2 here) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kallt_kaffe Posted April 10, 2011 Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 Ver3 and Ver3b in first and second post. Ver2->Ver3 is basicly the same apart from some changes that shouldn't matter. Ver3b is using the same kernel source (more or less) as CM7 but converted to Gen2. Both should work. But if one is causing trouble, try the other and if switching kernel worked, then report what happend in this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest CaptainSpectacular Posted April 10, 2011 Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 (edited) Thanks for your help Kallt. I'll test this right now. I just flash over my existing ROM or must do "full" flash ? (N38 > converter > google apps) EDIT: how did you test your GPS ? Nav app just start GPS once then shut down or the GPS still runing in background ? Edited April 10, 2011 by CaptainSpectacular Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest alwaleef Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 Hi KK and rest of developers. Thanks very much for the great work. I am noop to Android and ZTE Blade and need your help and advise. The device I have is ZTE Blade with Softbank Test ROM from ZTE to support Arabic Language with 2.2. As stated it is a test version and a bit slow with few problems in displaying RTL Arabic. I read about CM7 and it is support for both 2.3 and arabic and got confirmation from a friend that it is working charm on his Blade with Gen1. The one I have is running with Gen 2 and I am not sure how to use CM7 ROM to upgrade mine. Please let me know what are the steps to upgrade the phone as I am new and just starting learning Android and playing with this phone. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Hello alwaleef I'm not a developer but I think I can help you with this problem. The procedure is quite simple, download the rom from CM7 you want to use, and put it in your sdcard. Then download the file that is in the first post and put it also in you sdcard. Then in clockwork do a full backup just to be safe. and then wipe the phone, choose install zip from sdcard and choose the CM7 zip. let it install. DON'T REBOOT :) :P Choose again install zip from sdcard and choose the file from the first post. let it work and then you can reboot. After you can also download the gapps file from CM7 and install it. Should be simple enough. But if I can make a suggestion, Try the SS4 rom. and check if it supports your language, if it does, in my humble opinion, it is a much more polished rom and it is working like a charm in my Upgraded gen2 Blade. It seems like butter, smooth... :) :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest whatcolour Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 KK, don't know whether you had any progress on this yet, was happily running CM7 stable with v3b but the phone mysteriously shutdown once this morning. have you encountered such behaviour yourself?

Guest mrradmir Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 It's strange. I've used CM7 on Gen2 OSF almost week (KK's kernels, not CM's), maps 15-30 min a day . No any shutdown or reboot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No any shutdown or reboot. strange indeed. have a OSF OLED myself, and such behavior has never happened before, did have the odd gps reboots before, but not a shutdown like this. what's interesting is a few CM7 users with GEN1 phones reported the same problem.
