Root [ROM] CM7 TG-Reloaded (Final: 03-25)

Whyzor, in case you missed my earlier post, I was able to confirm with BetterBatteryStats that I've been getting the MMC kernel wakelocks. It seems completely random as I haven't been able to reproduce it, but if you need any other info, let me know.

Did this, and BOY did it take a while to boot up, but it is still a little sluggish

"a little sluggish" is subjective. It could be some apps/services running in the background that's causing the delay. Use an app like androlib sensor display to see the real-time values. Or play another game or use another app that uses the accelerometer to see if it's noticeable. The fix was for sluggish accelerometer after not rebooting in a while, you seem to be complaining it's "sluggish" right after reboot, which would require new investigation and fix.

Yes I saw that, I still haven't been able to reproduce it since I checked in fix. Try wiping cache & dalvik-cache and see if it pops up again. also could try flashing my newest kernel (the Optimized_TS) one a couple of pages to back, there have been some new debugging modes disabled (slight chance it could improve things).
 
When you wipe cache partition, your wiping app cache, so all your apps is gonna to be slower than normal till the cache builds up again.

Does anyone have problems making phone calls?
Click to expand...

Personally no, I've made some calls and recieved some calls today. And after that, I still have almost 50% battery life with 16hours off the charger.

What kind of problems are you having? Can you receive calls?
 
man, I was hesitate about putting different software on my phone because I thought I didn't need it. I decided to give this a try last night and I love it. Best upgrade I've done for my phone. Gotta give props to everyone that helped prefect this.
 
New 01-07 build uploaded. Check post #1 & #2 for link & changelog. If upgrading, just wipe cache AND dalvik-cache before flashing, it should keep all your user data & settings.

In the spirit of new years resolutions (what? a ROM needs to go to the gym once in a while too). These apps can safely be removed if you don't use them (it's from a script that I run after every new CM7 install on my MT.

Code: 
#!/system/bin/sh
mount -o rw,remount /system
rm /system/media/bootanimation.zip
rm /system/app/ADWLauncher.apk       # IF you have another launcher already installed.
rm /system/app/Androidian.apk
rm /system/app/AndroidTerm.apk       # Market version is more up-to-date
rm /system/app/Calculator.apk        # I prefer RealCalc
rm /system/app/CMStats.apk

rm /system/app/Email.apk
rm /system/app/Gallery3D.apk         # Quickpic is much nicer replacement
rm /system/app/LiveWallpapers.apk

Is there a link for that script? If not, could someone make that into a script?

Whyzor any updates on ics on the triumph?
Click to expand...

I am just monitoring things for ICS on the other threads right now, it first needs to stabilize on the CM9 source first, then someone who knows more about device specific changes than me would need to get the ball rolling for the MT.

Good news is the kernel improvements will transfer over to an ICS ROM if/when that's available in the future.
 
just a word of warning when coming from a previous CM7 Rom is that there are a few fewer CPU frequencies and if you had SetCPU installed with a profile that had one of the now missing frequencies it will by default set this profile's min/max to the lowest available frequency, aka 62mhz. Forget but I had an in call profile set to a somewhat higher low frequency that no longer existed so when answering my min max both set down to 62mz and after a half hour of waiting for the phone to register that I had pushed in the power button I ended up pulling the batt. Rebooted looked over settings and noticed two profiles set with a 62 min/max. Since changing those settings all has been good, noticed wifi kicks in much faster than TG's version. Anyhow, just wanted to throw this out there before people starting blaming the Roms for bugs. Not always necessary but a clean install can work some wonders. Also noticed that if just updating running fix permissions in Rom Manager first thing out the get go also works wonders. Keep up the good work, nice to see my flashing addiction can still be maintained with the Triumph.

Edit: Also just wanted to mention if like me you have been receiving constant force close issues with the last few Titanium updates going into Titanium settings and selecting the option to use the [FONT=&quot]busybox[/FONT] installed on your system as opposed to the version packaged with Titanium seems to have stopped the force closes. This is of curse only works if busybox is installed on your phone.
 
Just wanted to say thanks...this new version works great on my phone.tried the last version and just the kernel before that. clearing both caches on a few tries and also a clean install but I kept getting that crazy reboot thing...now everything is groovy...probably something i did wrong but regardless thanks for all the hard work man.
 
Has anyone else observed the notification LED now does not work for text messages? They worked flawlessly in TG's .08 and now I do not have that anymore. I did wipe the cache and Dalvik as well. Is this because this is a different kernel?

Works on my phone. There might be a setting for that. I get my notifications, and my games (two different colors), but I think there was a setting under Settings---> CyanogenMod settings---> Interface---> LED notifications. I also run handcent SMS. They have thier own settings for the LED
Settings---> Notifications setings---> Notification settings(yes that's twice)---> LED settings section:)
 
So the newest update fixes the unresponsive capacitive buttons? I get them from time to time and its annoying but its a software issue then?
 
Whyzor, you should update the thread more like CM7 TG thread since CM7 isn't sticked anymore, so people will most likely go to this thread first.

Yes I believe so. In the original code, it checks for whether one of the buttons is pressed with a flag, but then if a later check for our hardware (1 of many similar devices) is true, it resets a different flag. So they're not a 1:1 correspondence. I believe this is what happens when the buttons freeze, the correct flag is not reset. It's possible there may also be hardware issue lurking too, but after a few days of testing, I haven't noticed any button freezes, and it's really obvious when I boot into recovery mode to flash something new, because recovery uses the old drivers still.

Is there anyway you can add the date of the latest version of this rom to the title of the thread. Thanks!

I put the latest version date on the title, the Guides unstickied all ROM threads, figuring whichever one is active will still get posts in them to bump them to the top.
 
I meant to update your main post so it has the informative like TG's thread. When TG's reaches the buttom, and a new person comes looking for CM7 and see's this thread, they will need the info about CM7 and what's working overall, how to flash, and other little stuff.

You're doing a good job so far Whyzor.

I see, I already provide 2 links to the original TG thread in post #1, and an extra install instructions. I'll post more about status of the code once I get my changes pushed to github.
 
You should (have) reserve 2 or 3 posts after main post if you are gonna add a lot of info, like wise for me, I needed(recently) one more reserved spot for information about governors, I/O, undervolting, over and underclocking; but I didn't so I just the picked the most important(frequently asked) at the bottom of my main post.

EDIT: You should put your changellog in a quote or code form to save more space, and just use color, bold, and italic to show the beginning of each build version.
