Root CyanogenMod 7 Unofficial Beta 5 02/20/12

[hroark13]

don't use ultra blue with 3.5

I haven't updated it and i probably wont for a while cause almost every rom update breaks it

if I sync with the repo, or make changes that affects the way the framework is then the themes wont work anymore

I think themeing is a little different for CM

not sure if it is easier or not

 

[hroark13]

thanks i really appreciate your help but does you rom still have the basic phone features?

basic feature - yes


there are still bugs to be worked out


The feature that we probably wont get is the ability to update profile/prl and hidden menu stuff

It is with the theme manager on here u can change almost every thing the theme I have is honey comb one u asked about in a few posts ago and most say the use debbuging icon can't be theme well its themed with a bee if I were u blood I would look into this if u want to theme with tmobiles theme manager for cm7

Also on another note I found under cyanogen settings that the applacation stroage part works for Havering the system install the apps to SD or external I have tested it well and works well no need for s2e or a2sd of course we don't have internel storage so that's out but I have been placeing the apps on my SD and it works

You need to toggle wifi after connecting to a network for the first time

I think i found another in this version. Someone please check as i saw it this morning but have been busy and cant don much right now.

In a phone call, speaker phone volume control doesnt work or the speaker is extremely soft on the loudest settings.

Sorry. Dont worry about it i guess. Volume control is working, but i feel my speaker is to quiet on the loudest setting

If u rember I told u bout this how would u go about fixxing this maybe I can give it a shot when I Get home

*update*
Ok so this vary wired I got a call and was talking noticed my volume was a little low I was able to turn it up ever sense I did a fresh install with cm7 3.5 hf2 and the initclean.zip its been fine u can turn it up and down there maybe a program conflict ill reinstall my old apps to figure it out but I think were moveing forward with this it must just be bad flashing in some peoples part

 

[Mr Freeze]

Those two lines do work pretty good. My phone gets a bit laggy sometimes but its been pretty good so far

where do i put the lines in the code the bottom?

if that is the case i did it and saved but everytime i check to see if they stuck there not there

oh and does anyone know where the framwork.apk file is located in the rom im trying to make a clear status bar

hroark, you know how the camera button opens the camera but wont take a picture with it? Well, I do check deposits with the chase app, and for some reason I can use the camera button to take the picture of checks.

that is not a flaw in the rom itself, more in the camer apk, i could use a different apk but i would like to fix this one

Hroark, you have the full source for that camera apk?

 

[fcortes626]

i think the camera as something to do with the lib files

 

[DarkStarr]

It isn't that hard to make your own theme. Anybody with semi basic skills can as long as they read. I am gonna install this on my massively damaged backup phone to test and maybe make some themes for it.

 

[hroark13]

Hroark, you have the full source for that camera apk?

I am sure it is on github some where but here is a copy from my CM files

Testing Update

fresh flash
CM7 3.5
Hotfix 2
cleanedinit3.zip
fixed permissions
1GB sdext & 3GB fat32 (4GB sdcard) partitioned from CWM
Link2sd-- as ext4
No mods, no tweaks

REPORTS:

3G Signal--
a Lot less signal on this version. yesterday, I was literally in direct line of sight (about 300 ft away) of a sprint tower and only had three bars. I am sure it's a sprint tower and before this version in same place i had full signal. I have tested several times on many dif roms. stock, shabby, CTMOD, previous CM7. all with full signal.
No PRL mods. stock boost PRL

GPS--
Works like stock. NPWidget toggles perfectly, locks on position quickly. Tested on Maps & boost Telenav.

Bluetooth--
(i have a stereo hedset) Headset has good sound. (music playing) call comes in, answer call, music pauses, good call quality, end call, music resumes perfectly. process works just as good while making a call too. did this about 18 times over the corse of a 10 hour workday yesterday..
Media & call volume works great while in BT
NPWidget works perfectly
I did stumble accross a senerio..
when I activated wifi tether the music went from my headset to speaker and back to headset when I stopped tethering. Im pretty sure it didn't effect anything else though.

Speaker Sound--
Music sounds much better than v2d. No distortion unless maxed out.
Speaker Phone seems to work good. made calls right from SP, toggled SP while in call. toggled SP while on bluetooth. Tested several times. Never had a problem

Wifi--
Signal seems a lot weaker than v2d. I barely have signal in areas of my house that I had nearly full signal with previous versions and other ROMs..
I did have to toggle wifi after adding a network the first time as others have stated
Sometimes wifi wont connect to a saved network. in menu/settings/wireless & networks/wifi checked, it will say "connecting..." but never connects no matter what signal strength and below, the network in question just says Remembered. I tested this with 4 different networks. all of them were active, working networks in wich I confirmed with my SG Tab. a reboot seemed to make it work again for a while then at some point after toggling off and on again it does the same thing "connecting..."
