Root [ROM] MTDEV-CM7 build 2013-03-03

Anyone having an issue when GPS is turned on, your data goes to 1x even though you're in the middle of a full reception zone? Is it the ROM, or is it just VM throttling my grandfathered plan? Gotta have my 3G to play Ingress. ;)
 
Did you flash gapps? If you did, did you sign in with your account?


Yes, in CWM Recovery v6.0.1.9 by b_randon14! wipe data,cache, dalvik...flash rom, gapps, talk.... reboot
set up wifi, click talk, login google account, sync start....
no market.......



format sd card in a card recard, wipe system data,cache, dalvik...flash rom, gapps, talk.... reboot
set up wifi, click talk, login google account, sync start....
no market.......still...

then I used
MT_CWM_5504_20120527.zip, wipe system data,cache, dalvik...flash rom, gapps, .... reboot
this time I didn't format talk
login screen popped up first thing after the OS loaded... no way to cancel....I had to walk outside to get cell signal... after it started to sync, a window popped up and asked me if I want to cancel because I can only initialize once...I clicked cancel but the initialization was already done....
Why the cancel screen popped up so late.......

I notice that the initialization app look different.. in the first few attempts the initialization screen from talk is the same as android 4.1. So the two gapps packages have different initialization app?
 
I have had time whenever I use data it throws me from evdo to 1x even if the signal is good....
I think it's more of a rom issue.. you can go to network selection and pick evdo only but you will not be able to get incoming calls

This is a harware problem. We have one antenna for both the GPS and cell radio. I thing the 10-15 files didn't have this issue, but I think that every other set of files did.

Could someone confirm that with me?

I just tested it on MIUI with a friend's Triumph, and it doesn't cut me off to 1x. Perhaps it's just my phone's antenna. Any external GPS antennae that are compatible with the Triumph?

You were using the new Talk gapps? That one has some issues with CM7, I dunno why. Just use regular gapps w/o the new Talk. I just reflashed a newer CM7, no issues.

That's why I would like someone to confirm that the 10-15 build doesn't have this issue. I think that the issue stems from the two parts asking for antenna time at the same time and the files and setup used in the 10-15 build were different.

If I didn't have two side cars to work on and a family along with my Android/Java studdies, and oh yeah, work, I'd do long drawn out tests.

On a side note. I have a ton of data for a proper (I hope) power_profile.xml
I know that it's not that important, but it has bothered me since I bought the phone.
 
Get my new triump for Virgin Mo... change the recovery image file, backup the original rom and then wipe all data/cache etc. After that, i flash it to this custom rom and it running fine with all apps installed. Stupid me to overclock it 1800mhz and it freezes. Now, it keeps reboot and reboot to android main screen and it freezes again and rebooting. Can't get in android in stable condition. How can get in overclock screen and change the setting to original? It boot in android main screen and keeps freezing. I don't want to re-flash the rom again since I have 30+ apps installed. If I go in the backup mode and do a backup, will the setting still the same? I need reset to original 1000mhz on cpu to get this phone runing.
 
Tekone, just reflash the ROM, just wipe cache and dalvik and you won't lose your apps.
:D
Actually, you probably don't have to wipe anything to reset the clockspeed to default value.
Just reflash.

I had a flashable file that would rest the clock table. I'll have to look for it to post it and that will be around 10pm est.

Until then, run a search for cpu clock reset. I think that might work.
 
So, Ryder, you saying it won't reset the clockspeed with a simple reflash / no wipe?

I don't think so. If anybody looks at the updater script, they would deer that /system gets formatted and the files in the system folder get pushed to the /system position, along with some permissions and stuff. The frequency settings can be set via the init script. A reflash might work and I don't think it would hurt
 
Why the launcher does not rotate? Portrait only... I removed all the wallpaper apks, so just black background but that shouldn't hurt auto rotation
Apps rotates fine.
 
Does the 12/28 build still show CyanogenMod-7-20120819, build date is also Aug 19?

I'm fairly sure I flashed the 12/28 release, how can I verify?

EDIT: Answered my own question, I did my last backup on 1/9 so it would appear the ROM date has not changed since the Aug 19 update.
 
I thought that was only reset to default the voltages, if you used incredicontrol to set them in the first place.:confused:

You're right. I need sleep:o
I think the idea of reflashing the ROM might be the best as the frequency control needs root access. I think it does, but the "settings" app doesn't need to ask for root access. But that might be because it's a system app.
 
My gps doesn't lock :(. is there any remedy, or an app i could install instead of using navigation from google.

When I have had the same issue, I tried different apps (Sygic and Navfree), but if Google Navigation was not locking neither were they. Do you have everything checked correctly in Location settings?

I do not have this issue. GPS and 3G coexist happily. I am on a grandfathered plan too.
 
I use program called GPS Status. Seems to be a bit faster to lock compared to Google maps.

I rarely use GPS at all. When I do it can take a while to lock, maybe a minute or two. I get a good enough location in seconds to drive though.

Same here. GPS and 3G work together on my flash of 12/28. That is if you can believe the 3G icon in the status bar.

Edit: just ran a couple of speed tests with GPS on and off. Not much difference between the results. Got about 400k (which is good for me) both up and down.
