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

EDIT: Oh wow, the person just before my post reports the rebooting of his phone to....so it's not just me.

Nope, not just you, but if tickerguy can't duplicate the error, it will be difficult for him to troubleshoot. That and he's already stated problems with the wifi drivers being non-existent for this phone. I've just had to revert to the 9/12 build for now. It works ok for me and I can do without wifi on battery (and gps) for the time being.

I'm still hopeful these issues can be worked out over time, but tickerguy and issac have done wonders for this phone already, so I'm not complaining at all, especially for what these dev's are charging for their time :) Battery life is amazazing, among other things. For other phones there are source leaks from the manufacturer, but it seems this one is clamped down pretty tight, unfortunately.

Yeah, I'm definitely not complaining at all. I'm just reporting the locking and rebooting so that everyone knows that the problem still exists so that it can possibly be fixed in the future -- all part of the development process....

Gapps IS needed if you want to be able to sign into Google (e.g. contact sync, the market, etc.)

I'm not opposed to removing it from the build (it's not a big deal from my point of view) but without it how the hell do you do anything that requires authentication (any paid market app, etc)?

Turning off the wifi sleep is not hard if you want to, but it will cause lockups. Go into /system/etc/firmware/wlan and edit qcom_cfg.ini - change "gEnableSuspend" from "2" to "3".

That is what was originally there.

if going back to my stock nandroid backup. should i do a cache/dalvik cache wipe then format my system then restore the nandroid? im using isaacj87's latest build and i love the overclocking ability on it i just want gps to work... but i know that once the next build on here comes out with ext4 enabled we will hopefully get a link up for just the OC kernel from isaacj87's build that way the option will be there so someone (like me :) ) who doesn't have one of the oddball phones, or the oddball oddball phones, can use it at their own risk, and i gladly will!

as it is this is what my phone looks like right now.

IT'S AWESOME THAT I SET MY LOCATION TO NOWHERE AND I TOOK THE SNAP RIGHT AT 12:00AM LOL PERFECTION!

one other question. does this build need the GAPPS zip file to complete google apps installation? or is it prebuilt into the install package?


That looks awesome. What theme are you using / how do I get it? What background is that?


Update: I got it. It's the Mystic Halo Live wallpaper with the blue Cyanbread theme in CM7 Theme Chooser, for any other noobs like me out there.

You guys made an awesome build.

But I have a small problem. I think it's only me, but...

When I try to wake from sleep, it takes 2-5 seconds, and sometimes, it just freezes with a black screen trying to wake from sleep, and the phone restarts. Any idea what this might be?
Im pretty sure that was from the build before the 9-20 one. I haven't had any problems with wake time with the current update! But, then again, there are oddball phones out there!:cool:

Using 9/20 right now, not oddball (or atleast I don't think I am). :thinking:

PS It worked fine on Isaac's build, so there must have been something I messed up in the CM settings, I remember tweaking them quite a bit.

Check out tg's post just above here about the wifi setting in \system . that cured it for me, but the phone will lock up if it goes to sleep with wifi on.

Turning off the wifi sleep is not hard if you want to, but it will cause lockups. Go into /system/etc/firmware/wlan and edit qcom_cfg.ini - change "gEnableSuspend" from "2" to "3".

That is what was originally there.

So can we just do this to isaac's build if we want to fix the wifi lockup to use the overclock kernel?

Yeah, you can, but I never uploaded a new version with the GPS fix.
That's really no biggie..it never really worked anyways lol...not to be pushy though but do think there's anyway you could upload that kernel or just let me know if theres a way to extract it from your rom myself? it's my gf's phone and she hates it when i wipe everything for some reason lol.

Sorry, but how to edit /system/etc/firmware/wlan/qcom_cfg.ini ? I tried vi but I do not have special keys like "esc"...
