[ROM] [BETA] CyanogenMod 7 for Droid 2

[superpopmonk]

I see it now... thanks a ton!

I've been running tests trying to "force bugs out of the woodwork" and so far so good - kudos to the developers and all of the time and angry wives this project has created....

One thing I have noticed is in reference to the lock screen timing. I have altered it in four different places and I cannot get away from the 5 - 10 second blackout. Not sure why this is, but I wanted to bring it up nonetheless. Everything else seems fine though for now - no problems with keyboard lights or soft keys. I did battery calibration after the initial installation of jbird's build 13. In letting my battery drain out I got to about 40 - 30% left and my screen started blacking out fairly quickly. I could not change it in the stock or CM settings - I mean I did alter the settings but it did nothing. I also had issues with a sort of "timeout" on WiFi at this battery level. Are there battery settings for CM7 that I am not seeing or am bypassing inadvertently?

Thank you all! I'm going to look at the files for the nightlies and see if I can add help to it all...

I also noticed some wifi shutdown instances. That was with 13 tho. And since I am having loads of issues with my stupid 2wire router anyways, I didn't think it was rom related....

As for your lockscreen issues, I haven't seen anything. Mine seems to work just fine.

Has anyone tried the newest nightly? There's finally 1% battery increments on the droid 2. This is awesome

I'm finally going to be flashing this tomorrow night. (Unfortunately I don't have time to do it tonight.) I can't wait to check it out, I have heard nothing but good things, and it sounds like 99% of the bugs have been worked out. The biggest issue to me sounds like it's going to be the alt-lock not working, but even that is not a huge issue.

2 wire routers suck, we see nothing but problems with them.

thanks to cvpcs's help we have submitted to CyanogenMod's gerrit for approval ... read Official Nightlies should be comming soon to Rom Manager

prop files have been merged
device tree is set to be forked (pending vendor tree aproval)
vendor tree mods have been submitted for gerrit approval

As we come to this milestone I want to be the first to say :
Thanks for all the hard work of all the DEVs who have really stepped up to make this project a reality
Thanks to all the beta testers who wiped 10,000 times in an effort to keep the devs busy
and finally thanks to EVERYONE because without the interest of the public
WHAT IS THE POINT!!!

We have to halt development till we get final approval ... sorry this is the process

AFTER WE GET APPROVAL ALL CHANGES MUST BE SUBMITTED VIA GERRIT
this will help and even make submitting patches easier than with git

The latest nightly seems to have fixed the USB problem... at least, it's working for me without having to plug in twice.

Question - is 14.1 the latest nightly? If so, it doesn't seem to fix the issue for me. I've plugged, unplugged, reboot, powered off, etc. The disk letter shows up in Windows, but I cannot access it. I can press the button to "Turn on USB storage", but all I get is a spinny forever.

If there's a newer version than 14.1, how to get?

If anything, maybe I'll try system format/wipe data/wipe cache and reload 14.1.

If you post what build you are running that helps to help troubleshoot or confirm issues.

Not sure I get your issue - are you saying that regardless of screen time-out setting, your screen times out at 5-10 seconds of inactivity?

14.1 is the most current.

I haven't seen anyone else post an issue like yours - USB mount/charge has worked fine as long as you plug, unplug, plug. if that's not working for you, you may have to wipe/format and re-install - something didn't go right for some reason.

Short of that you could wipe cache and dalvik cache and reboot, or try connecting to another computer/another USB cable to confirm it isn't related to an issue on your current pc/connector.

Where do I get nightly 14 or whatever... I went to the thing at the beginning of this thread and the newest is 13

Looks like the latest nightlys are now at CM4D2 nightly links. BE CAREFUL, apparently they could possibly be broken because they are automatically built each night and not immediately verified by someone as working.

I just loaded the latest nightly, and I can finally see the SD card, yay!

 

[Redflea]

The most recent nightly was tested briefly by Rev before release...
