CM7 Alpha 7 Comments

I just had to tell people, in case you have been worried about trying. I am running this rom right now, the battery life seems improved and the performance is phenomenal. The time I have spent with this phone I have been constantly trying new kernels and roms to see which runs the best, runs games smooth, generally works. And kept coming up with nice looking smooth roms missing the normal umph I am used to.
Updated to C7 A7 today and it works great smooth gaming everything works, the camera is much improved over the previous cm7's. I have no kernel flashed just the one that came with CM7 and it runs games like asphalt 6 perfectly smooth. This is clocked at 1124 as well so it runs cool (Temperature.) .. Fast and Cool Also has 380ish free RAM so it doesn't have allot of background stuff going, I would imaging the battery life is pretty good, don't know for sure yet. And the GPS works quick, connects to 10 satellites sitting on my couch in my living room!
The only real issue is the wifi signal is not as strong, though it doesn't disconnect or anything its just the signal is lower.
I know this is a bit random and what not but I wanted this out here for anyone that was looking for smooth gaming like I was, after all this is supposed to be faster than the tegra chipset!

Cool. I was waiting for it to be out of Alpha, but I may just go ahead and flash it sooner rather than later.

Yeah, take the jump. I haven't found a reason yet to not recommend it to anyone. Been playing with it pretty heavy today too.

Is anyone having issues with the wallpaper not sticking in cm7. Mine keeps changing randomly.

I'm on 6 right now and it's great. Quick and easy just like any other asop or CM rom.
Battery life is the best thing about this rom not including the other great modifications.

for me battery life is the worst thing =[

Battery life - (Light to moderate usage today) I've unplugged it and left it on from 3am to 8am and it showed 100% still. google and xda forum a little like 5mins and it dropped 2%. It hasn't been charged since and its been 15hours with 40% batt life.
Front camera looks hazy, not sure why but it'll probably get fixed by devs sooner or later. lock screen is awesome, really fast. Graphically every thing looks really good. On sense 3.0 we need to unlock to see time, with CM7 we don't need to any longer General text in CM7 is much biggerand Incoming call text is way-way-Wayyyy bigger compared to other roms Thank you devs ! it made it so much easier to see who's calling now.
i've been using various phones for the past few years and they all had this particular problem i've been facing. if someone calls me and hangs up and speed dials and calls me back immediately, my phone would be engaged. on CM7 and that problem has gone away!!! woohoo!!!!
i can't wait for it to go Beta/stable

have you tried clearing your batt stats in recovery ?
its been reported batt charging is a little off for some people. i was charging it last night and it usually takes between 3~4 hours. on CM7 it only took like 1.5 hours.
I've unplugged it after charging and left it on to see how the drainage goes. its seems alright here.

Hmm been thinking about using this but not sure since it's still in Alpha. I will probably just wait until it's out of alpha/beta. I want a solid rom without many glitches/bugs =p

Few people see the serious bugs that others do. I dont see any serious issues with my phone...There are "quirks" but not really bugs. (Alpha 7).
Matt

Use "FXR WIFI fix and rescue" from market..Fixed my low wifi signal bug instantly!!.Still have issue with wifi calling after all update/zip patches.Battery life great after stat wipe and calibration..Stable fast ROM with few bugs @-A7..Already dreaming of a ICS Cyanogen..

I think about 9/10 bugs in the CM7 thread now are due to noob mistakes or people not wiping properly or people restoring bad data into the ROM with titanium backup or its a badly behaving app not the ROM.
This ROM is rock solid for me and many others. Looking at the main thread it might seem otherwise because of all the people reporting errors. Not many happy users pop in to talk about how smooth and stable this ROM is.

All I normally do is just restore apps with data from Titanium backup is not the best route to take with CM?

[Q] Battery Drain with CM 7.2.0 (fjfalcon's) of 19.03.2012

This ROM is really AWESOME!! Everything is running great for me. But the battery is draining twice as fast. Anyone had this problem???
Before, I had the khalpower ROM (froyo) and I used to get 2 days of battery. After the upgrade, I only get less than 24 hours with the same usage.
Battery usage gives: 36% for Cell Standby, 22% for Phone Idle and Display is 12%.
Any ideas?
Tks

Anybody??
PS: I configured everything to save battery but I only get 24h at max.

Use cm9 ) 10chars

How long is battery life in cm9 ? because I have only 1 day too with cm7.

Wow, CM9 save more battery than CM7? It's awesome. I'll try it tonight

Can choosing a wrong stock SBF to begin with cause the problem? Say you're in Singapore/India and first flash US cin-bell or Russian sbf. The baseband etc updated as per the country's settings. And consumes more battery. Does this theory stand at all?

You can change baseband with openrecovery-XT720 (It is not necessary a new SBF)
Have you changed provider? When I change my phone-sim from different provider I note different consumption.

There's another part of the baseband (bpsw) that can't be flashed in OR (at least not easily--I figured out why a few months ago, but haven't bothered fix it). Generally, the intent of the baseband updates in OR is to get the ROM portions to match the installed bpsw. But peshovec has convinced me that the baseband updates aren't really doing anything on XT720 because we have only one flavor of GSM on all stock devices (for comparison, A853 has a few different ones). So, I no longer think baseband matters.
Stupid things just seem to happen when you have low signal and an occasional low signal problem may have nothing to do with your phone. Reproducibility is the key here. I started using llama and now pay attention to which tower I'm connected to. For example, at my house in the same chair I can be connected to any of four towers and problems usually occur when I'm connected to a particular one (which happens very rarely). The format of that tower's identifyer code is quite different from the other three so I suspect it's a different model and/or generation.
Anyway, my experience on CM7 is that background processes churn like crazy (constant killed, restart cycles)--and that's what I think causes the problem. I haven't found how to address that though, and in my experience things like supercharger tend to make it worse. It's really weird because I remember a time when CM7 had better battery life than CM6... and I can't pinpoint what changed.
Has anyone compared with peshovec's? There are more of nadlabak's A853 256mb device tweaks in that one.

Try installing "BATTERY CALIBRATION" from the market and follow the instructions. It works for me. I'm using CM9.

To manage the constantly "auto"run apps , you can use gemini app manager , it could change the autorun status of an app . Now there is no more app that can autorun in background without my permission

Your Preffered ROM? (Dec 2012)

(Nov 2012)
We have been very fortunate with a recent influx of ported ROMs and modified experiemental Kernels and want to gather people's opinions on what the best Daily Driver ROM/kernel combo is these days.
What says you!

Well when my DS died a month or so ago I was bouncing between CM 9.1 with the experimental kernel, paranoid android, and virtuous infinity (1.3.5 beta 1). Each had its own merits... cm9 is on there right now but the screen doesn't work lol.

I am a huge fan of MikTouch and always keep a android just in case. It is probably the most stable of any Rom available.
This week I finally tried the new AOKP from SilverL. I haven't tried an AOKP before. I love all the tweaks in Rom control. It will probably be my daily driver for awhile.
Just try a few and see what you like. Good luck.

CM 9.1. Running the R3 ROM with the R8 kernel and everything's working smooth.

I second npiper. I tried a couple of the ICS roms and enjoyed them, but after a week or two I couldn't deal with the little issues any longer and went back to the rom that hasn't let me down, MikTouch. I can't remember ever having an app fc on me with it.

MAN! That's like taking a police officer into a Dunkin Donuts and asking him to pick one favorite! :laugh:

I try all of the ROMs that come out. But I always end up back on the Miktouch 0.7 ROM because it is super stable and everything works without having to sacrifice virgins or do anything else extraordinary.

Lol.
Interesting, I never knew Miktouch was so preferred around here. I've always skipped over it because it was Sense and I've never been happy with stock sense. I'll maybe give it a shot this week. It's GB not ICS, right?
I'm also going to test out CM9.1 r8 and see how I fair with it compared to my (somewhat) trusty CM9 Alpha5
Paranoid Android is a very fun idea and I love having it as an option, but I'm not sure a screen our size really calls for it

I'm testing out the new CM9.1r8, as well. Miktouch is indeed GB. With it I'm regularly getting 30+ hours of use with my 1900mAh battery. I'm anxious to see what I get with the new CM9.1r8. I tested the earlier r5 build of CM9.1 and just wasn't totally happy with it so I went back to Miktouch. I love the look of the ICS/Sense4 and Sense 3.6 ROMS, but none of them have the stability and battery life I need, so I end up back at Miktouch.

30+ hours sounds fantastic, but for reference how long would you say you manage to get on a CM9 ROM?

Depends on usage really. I can get up to 40 hours out of one of my ankers with around 4 hours screen on time. Or I could get 9 hours battery life with the same usage, it just depends on how hard core you use your phone that day.

Yeah what he said. There are users that will claim to have amazing battery life and then post screen shots of Display only accounting for like 30% of the usage.. When that's the case then you know the thing isn't on that much because it really is display that uses the most juice if you're using your phone heavy.
That said, I've had the Mugen 3600 since the day it was released and I can always get through a whole day without any worry even if i'm talking for hours, playing games whatever surfing the net and checking XDA regularly etc.. Sometimes I put the smaller batteries back in because the phone looks sharp stock but then I find myself concerned about being near a charger and I hate that feeling. I just want to plug it in while I'm sleeping and use it at will the rest of the time and with the "big boy" I totally can.

Yea I get that, I meant to pose that question to him specifically to see how his battery life scales with the two different roms since the user is pretty much invariably the biggest drain on battery.

I just loaded this CM9.1r8 ROM yesterday, so don't have any complete sense of battery life, yet. Though so far it is looking very good. I get such battery life on my phone because when I am home it does sit with the screen off most of the time. At home it connects via Bluetooth to my Panasonic cordless phones and Wi-Fi to my home network. All the voice calls I make or receive go through those cordless phones to the cellphone (my MT4GS is my only phone, I don't have a landline or other mobile). I do some texting on the phone, and of course when I go out of the apartment it isn't connected to Bluetooth. When I'm out I will use maps sometimes, apps like Friendstream and Foursquare. Oh, and when out I am almost always listening to music either stored on my SD card or streaming from Google Music or the FM radio. So, not a "hardcore" user, I guess, but I do what I need. Miktouch recently got me over 2 days of use on a single charge, but more typical is about 28-30 hours. The new CM9.1r8 is looking to behave similarly so far.

I got this build before it was posted from the dev, so I have a bit more experience on the battery. I ran it for 24 hours straight without recharging, got in 2.5 hours of web browsing, another hour of wifi calling in, and the batter was at 15% when I woke up this morning (Anker 1900 mAh). Everything I've tested has worked fine. The one gotcha on the battery may be if you boot into it initially--I noticed that on the first reboot, it wasn't going into deep sleep, but after I rebooted a second time, it was clean. It may require a full battery pull for the hardware to completely reset or something. Otherwise, things are great!

CM9.1 r7 kernel and ROM. Flashing to r8 soon. My only gripe with this ROM is the camera is a little lacking, but I'd take stock AOSP over the sense camera any day. If I were to use GB though, I'd go with one of Undead9k's "senseless" ROMs.

Well this might seem obvious to most in this community, but since I spent as long as I did not updating maybe there are others out there as well...
I have found no reason to *not* update from cm9 to cm9.1 r8.
Does anyone have any opinions of our new AOKP vs CM9.1 roms?

Actually I'm using CM9.1r8 ROM, too. Although it's still soon to throw a veredict, by the moment I'm getting great battery life, and it works perfect and smooth.
The only feature I still miss is the alt/caps led/status bar indicator ;(

With CM10 still in alpha, CM9 with R9 kernels, and AOKP, PACman, Paranoid Android and MIUI all updating what's your new preffered daily driver ROM?
I'll be testing CM10 tonight since my CM9 flash has recently started having problems connecting to the network for a short time every other week.

4g/3g problems

OK so I've had this problem with ever ROM except original touchwiz ROMs. My 3g and 4g will random stop working and it reconnects maybe after a reboot or just whenever. This is quit frustrating and in tired of using my internet when something else wants me to.
If you know whats wrong and the solution that would be awesome if you don't. Then please don't respond.

Too general. If you want help you need to be specific. What is your current ROM? What is your baseband version? Saying "every ROM" tells us nothing.

Okay so I all the basebands k3 k4 and uxm whatever. I wipe everything.I use cwm. And im telling every rom but the ones thqt are stock. As in miui cm 10 aokp asop pac man everything pretty much. Only oone that works is touch wiz roms. Like embryo

I think i have a similar problem. I was getting all sorts of weird reboots on stock so decided to try CM10 stable. Love everything about it but having issues with the signal. Have tried 4 or 5 different basebands - currently using i727UCLL3. when i have signal its great, but i have spotty reception at work. Once the phone looses the signal, about half the time it doesn't pick a signal back up unless i put it in airplane mode, then usually it refreshes and is ok for a while. however sometimes, even when it looks like i have signal, i have no internet connectivity and have to reboot the phone to get everything working again - this happens every 2-3 days usually on average. I'm in the philly area so based on the name of the original guy posting maybe its a more local issue but who knows. any help appreciated. thanks!

hey my name is philly lol. but i do live in VA so maybe its a region thing idk. still no fix. only thing that works which isnt worth it half the time, is embryo its CONSTANT 4g no problem. but for me that battery life is awfull.

I think he was referring to the battery life issue. Battery life is extremely subjective and based on each user's habits and settings. Other Embryo users are able to get less "awful" battery life, hence "User error."
No one has the formula for best battery life because everyone's usage varies. There are all sorts of guides, tips and tricks on here to help extend your battery life. Mitigating wakelocks should always be the first place you look to extend your battery.

Possible fix for 4.3 battery drain

First off, in on us cellular. But here goes nothing.
I'm not exactly sure what happened but after the massive battery drain I've been having, I decided to try a new Rom. I chose Carbon. So I'm installing it and it wouldn't let me install the 4.3 gapps package I had, so I used an older 4.2.
Normally at work, after about four hours, I'd be close to dead. Today it's at 60. While you may not think that's great battery life, to me, it is. I think most of my drain is the Crappy signal. Either way, my battery seems to be lasting longer. It's been on Wi-Fi, 4g, 3g, and no signal with a lot of screen time.
Was it Carbon? Or is the new gapps screwed up and the 4.2 ones work correctly? I know the new ones come with Location services which I've been reading is a massive drain. I don't know. All I know is that it's been four hours and my battery is nowhere near dead.
After posting that nry battery lasted 8 hours when on the other Rom with 4.3 gapps, I barely made it four.
Take it for what it's worth

This definitely belongs in Q/A. I'll get a mod to move it for you. I couldn't really say why but if 4.2 gapps worked for you with no perceivable drawbacks then cool. Were you trying 4.3 gapps with a new download or were you using just the same zip? Also, you didn't clarify what exactly was draining your battery in the first place. Have you tried using BetterBatteryStats or Wakelock Detector to pinpoint the issue? Lastly, what are "McCain services"? I did try an online search but understandably nothing but results for "John McCain" shows up.

IWell I used the zip I always used on the 4.3 roms. Maybe because carbon has a build number of 4.3.1 it didn't recognize it? I don't know. I was running pac man for clarification and there was a lot of wake Locks even with location serVices turned off. I should have made a screenshot I guess.
Though there was some for Google stuff, some rilj ones. It was basically phone crap and not actually apps like say Facebook, because we know apps like that drain it too. But no, the wake locks were under android stuff and there was hundreds. I think the rilj had 300+. I wish I could remember the rest but I can't. I've seen no drawbacks using 4.2 gapps on 4.3. Even on the carbon website, there wasn't any links. They just said to use 4.2. I don't know.
I figured I would post this. Maybe using 4.2 gapps I 4.3 is the solution. Maybe it's not. Maybe I got lucky. I can't give a definite answer. Just sharing what happened to me. And thanks for getting it moved
Also, day two, 3 hours into work and I'm at 70 percent. Like I said, some of you may not think that's great, but I use my phone a lot so 8 hours compared to 4 is great.

I hate when it happens like that. When its unspecific stuff and Google related, I'm not too sure what actually resolves the issue for me. But hey, maybe this will resolve someone else's issues in the future. Per your battery life, usually folks get about 4 hours screen on time, if those stats you posted are improvements for you then you're definitely doing something right.

Yeah, I know others say they can get up to 12 and 24, but I have never seen those Stats before but like I said, I'm on my phone a lot and when it starts running for 8 hours, I'm happy. I just couldn't take it dying on me after 3-4 hours. That's ridiculous. I have two batteries but even before the day was over I had to switch them both out. I'm happy. Maybe I'll have my girl reinstall her pac man and install 4.2 gapps then we could figure out if it's the gapps or pac man. All I know is my phone is running better this way and I wanted to throw it out there.
