Root [ROM][Beta][FINAL] CM7 Android For Triumph [Tickerguy Edition, Kernel: mine] 11/19

tickerguy said:
Well the code change has caught two data drops thus far today and fixed both without intervention. It appears to be working, but I'm going to run it for a bit yet before I loose it, along with looking for a few more things I'd like to bundle into the next turn.

Awesome!! I can't wait! I think I check this thread every five minutes haha!

As minus5252 stated, I also am having VERY few data drops after the 10/12 update. The first forty eight hours I thought it had been fixed already as well. I anxiously await the next update and thank you again for your thorough and dedicated work.

Sadly, I still get them. However, I really don't care. I have made a habit of switching to Airplane mode every time my phone looses data, so... eh. I can live with that bug. (Considering how great the phone is after installing CM7!)

I have found that it is quicker to add 3G data to the power widget and disable then re-enable it. Also, you don't risk missing any calls.

Hope that helps.
 
Connection Checker is a great app for keeping data enabled, or auto toggling airplane mode for you. It works flawlessly for me. Great work on the rom Tickerguy, much thanks.

Hey guys I'm new to the Motorola Triumph. I was wondering is there any possible way to remove the "Virgin Mobile" name in the navigation bar/notification bar? Other than that this port is awesome! This phone is much better than the Samsung Galaxy Indulge.

The Triumph version of CM7 will only make the carrier name disappear on the lock screen (so will the clock). Currently I think the only way to edit the carrier name is by editing it yourself.

I decompiled the framework-res.apk and edited the eri.xml (located in res/xml/). The specific line is <EriInfo RoamingIndicator="1" IconIndex="1" IconMode="0" EriText="Virgin Mobile" CallPromptId="0" AlertId="0" />

Change "Virgin Mobile" to whatever you like... keep the quotation marks. I just changed it to my name. Save the file, compile the framework, zip it and flash it back on using the recovery menu.

There is a specific way to set up the zip for the flash. I was lazy so I included it into a battery mod zip that I liked by using 7zip to extract it and inserted my framework-res.apk into the system folder. I then re-zipped it, put it on my sdcard, booted into recovery, and "install zip from sdcard"/"choose zip from sdcard". Now my notification screen and lock screen have my name.

Here is a link to get apkmanager. Just google how to correctly use it. When you compile... framework-res.apk IS a system apk.

Anyone else getting a ridiculous amount of FCs when using the Market? I think it first started happening to me on the 10/2 build (though I really don't remember) but even with a clean flash of 10/12 and the GAPPS, I'm still getting FCs almost every time I'm using the Market.

Huh? Tethering should NOT automatically turn on. That has to be requested from the PC end - figure out why your PC is requesting access to the network via the Bluetooth connection and turn it off on that end.
Click to expand...
Thanks. Both earlier today and a couple days ago when I tried connecting it only said "Paired but not connected" so I had to manually connect through the PC, which I'm assuming turned on tethering. But just now when I tried connecting it actually connected. Weird.

You mean like a file transfer link? Just sync it like a headset to the PC and tell the PC or cellpgone to send the file via Bluetooth. If that's not what your talking about please elaborate.

I can't seem to find any reliable guides online to do something like this. Any chance you could link me to something?

I've been getting this recently on stock ROM (rooted, umph kernel) so I doubt it its a cm7 issue. Might try a CLEAR DATA on the Market app and see if that helps. Seemed to help me, YMMV.

I have manually updated to the new Market 3.2.0 and I don't seem to have anymore errors. Althought I don't see any changes in this new version.
I don't want to post an external link, so google for the how to. I can tell you that Root Explorer is needed to install this.
Not sure if it will help you or not, but I don't have any issues.

This page seems to be helpful. The string mentioned though is not there in my framework so just use those directions but instead of res/values/strings.xml and deleting resources.arsc while compiling use res/xml/eri.xml and delete res/xml/eri.xml when asked in compiling. Remember that it is a system apk.

[TIP] How to change the carrier name - xda-developers


EDIT* I did it and tried to flash over the framework but for some reason it was not changing the carrier name. When I used the battery mod zip and placed my framework in there it was successful. Long story short. Here is the site to get the battery mod

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1275057

Just right click select 7zip "Extract to "cm7_10-2_batteryicon/"" then go into system/framework and use that framework-res.apk to edit. Use the same directions as I gave before. But this time res/xml/eri.xml will say

<EriInfo RoamingIndicator="1" IconIndex="1" IconMode="0" EriText="CyanogenMod 7" CallPromptId="0" AlertId="0" />

Just change CyanogenMod 7 to what you want

That is if you want to do it yourself; which can be gratifying. BUT

I still have all of the files needed so If you want I can make it for you and post the zip. Just tell me the name you want. It will take me all of 5 minutes.

Force closures (and LOTS of other problems) can be caused by incorrect file permissions. Run fix permissions either from the Clockwork recovery or the Clockwork Rom Manager app. Try that.
 
Need help please! I can't flash anything and have a hard time downloading (multiple tries before success) things besides market apps. Any idea what's going on?
 
I am having an issue with watching video (any) while in portrait mode. Landscape runs flawlessly. I thought I read about it somewhere else but can't seem to find the fix. Can someone please help me with this issue? Thanks, It is greatly appreciated. Also, I am running the latest version of CM7 which is posted here.

There is no fix as of yet. If you want non glitchy video turn the phone on its side and watch in landscape mode.
 
One of the git dependency servers is borked again, so my verification run this weekend (that a "clean" build will work) has been trashed.

As such I'm going to go ahead and release 0.1 Beta as soon as the build completes and it's verified that it boots. Along with the above changes I have also made some fairly aggressive memory management changes to the operating environment which should help a good deal with responsiveness.

It'll be a few hours before the build is up, but it should be this some time this afternoon or evening.
 
when I try to flash something it says-
"-- Installing: /sdcard/download/update-cm-7.1.0-
A0.8-Triumph-KANG-signed.zip
Finding update package . . .
Opening update package . . .
E: Can't open /sdcard/download/update-cm-7.1.0-A0
.8-Triumph-KANG-signed.zip
(bad)
Installation aborted."
 
Most of the time I can Backup and Restore without an issues so I don't think I have a bad sd card.

*Edit- at the end of a restore it says

"sd-ext.img not found. Skipping restore of /sd-ex
t.
Restore Complete!"

Is this normal?

Could just be a corrupted download. Try redownloading and see what happens.

Great job Tickerguy, you are fast. I appreciate everything that you are doing.

I just had a question, do I have to flash GAPPs again after flashing the latest 10/16 update? I had already flashed it from the last 10/12 update. Thanks.
