I got a md5 mismatch is there anyway to fix this?

Recopy the files onto your sd card and keep doing that until md5 matches. Md5 mismatch is a safety warning telling you a file became corrupted, most likely in data transfer

So what's the status on the radio? Does it work on the boost rom? I have a sprint phone and it didn't work so I guess I am just gonna have to wait.

radio doesnt work on boost either

 

[gpotvin]

Does anyone know what is causing the radio to not work? Would it be a kernel problem or a problem with the libs? I could maybe help with the libs but not the kernel. I cant wait to see this working and i am willing to contribute some basic developement to this project. I am still kind of a n00b when it comes to this but i am a fast learner. :thumbup:

 

[jdogrambo]

If we knew what was making it not work it would already be fixed

 

[bads3ctor]

I'm working on this path now: Fix SOD, then fix audio, then RIL and voice calls, then either WiFI or 3G. If any developer thinks that something else is more important to do first, then please fix it and post the fix. Thanks for all the help so far.

 

[ChoznJuan]

Do you think the SOD issue may be due to under clocking?? I had notice in some of the other ROMs that if I set the minimum clock speed too low then my screen wouldn't wake up after it went to sleep. Just a thought..

 

[interdpth]

SOD and backward rotation can be fixed via some UI.so's from stock

Yes...working on that now...thx.

From Cyanogenmod wiki:

Compiling wifi kernel module

After installing a custom kernel, the wifi module may be unstable or unusable. The solution is to recompile the module, linking it to the new kernel build.
cd ~/android/system/system/wlan/ti/sta_dk_4_0_4_32
KERNEL_DIR=~/android/kernel/cm-kernel CROSS_COMPILE=$CCOMPILER ARCH=arm make -j`grep 'processor' /proc/cpuinfo | wc -l`
A file named wlan.ko will be produced in the current directory. You must install the new module to the device.
adb shell mount -o remount,rw /system
adb shell cp /system/lib/modules/wlan.ko /system/lib/modules/wlan.ko.backup
adb push wlan.ko /system/lib/modules/wlan.ko
Reboot the device. If all goes well, you should be using the newly compiled 'wlan.ko'.
For devices which may be utilizing wifi module from vendors other than TI, you may choose other appropriate drivers.

Don't know if that helps, just something I read at a passing glance..

Great work. Here are the logcat & dmesg after boot on a Sprint TU.

logcat: SprintTU_logcat_after_boot - Pastebin.com

dmesg: SprintTU_dmesg_after_boot - Pastebin.com

I know a lot of you are busy with cm7 but who's up to help me build miui for the ultra I already got the build for the prevail that we could work with so once again is any body willing to help me

If I knew what i was doing i would jump on that. I love MIUI. So.......Customizable.
Thank you, for at least thinking about the little guy,lol.

This is an ALPHA build of Cyanogenmod 7 from source.

Please post here only with bug fixes or logcat output.

Guys there has been a lot of off topic chatter going on in this thread and I know you may not realize this but it makes it harder on devs to sort out what is useful for their development and what is not pertinent to the matter at hand.

Im not a mod but please respect the devs request to keep this particular post on topic by posting only stuff having to do with improving this rom.

Thanks!

@bad sector

hey have you guys tried opensource.samsung.com I have the og samsung epic they have some stuff for the kernel on that site. I hope this helps I know 3 people with the T.U. for boost that would love this thanks for the hard work.

 

[chevanlol360]

Noticed that there was a Roam option in settings on cm7 is it actually possible to roam on boost with cm7? no right?

 

[AndyDroidBot]

From what I understand a phones PRL dictates which cell phone towers you can connect to. Technically if you were running a sprint preferred list, you might be able to but the only other cdma towers are verizon and cricket and I'm sure they monitor when you are connected and are free to give you the boot.

whens a update gunna come out its been like a week

 

[Rick1488]

whens a update gunna come out its been like a week

I wouldn't count on any updates anytime soon as the issues with porting CM7 to the TU are very complex and the devs working on it have lives and cant dedicate all their time to the project. So, not to be rude but it will be ready when it's ready. So, Please remain patient.

 

[bads3ctor]

Yes...this is what is happening...real life is intervening to make deving on the TU difficult for me right now. I have not stopped improving CM7 for the TU but it is not a priority right now for me. When my current real life issues get somewhat resolved, I will release more CM7 fixes. Thx for all the help so far!

Is there anyway to pull the cyanogenmod Power Drop Down Menu and install it on a Transform Ultra running Star ScRom?
I've been asked this question so many time I've lost track bc people like the drop down menu but no sucess on installing it on Starr ScRom

 

[Warlord698]

sounds like you guys are doin some great work, really makes me wish I had only one of this phone so I could test it out and help with the project. I can hardly wait for a proper release......keep up the good work

 

[bads3ctor]

One of my goals in understanding the Cyanogenmod build environment was to figure out how to compile just 1 library instead of the whole tree. Well today I figured it out.

Say you want to try the libraries here:
https://www.codeaurora.org/git/proj...pository/revisions/master/show/hardware/msm7k

You would clone it: git clone git://git.codeaurora.org/ag-gb-dsds-7227.git

Then copy the desired library to the device config root: "device/samsung/transformultra" in my case.

Then run: mmm libaudio(or whatever library you wanted) from that directory.

It will compile just that library for you and then you can copy the .so and/or the binaries to the device to test them.
