That Aria - she's soo racy! CM6-6.1.1-Liberty (12/17/2010)

attn1 · Oct 28, 2010

CyanogenMod is a free, community built distribution of Android 2.2 (Froyo) which greatly extends the capabilities of your phone.

Code:

#include <std_disclaimer.h>
/*
 * Your warranty is now void.
 *
 * I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
 * thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
 * do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
 * before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
 * you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
 */

This is an AOSP-based build with extra contributions from many people which you can use without any type of Google applications. I found a link from some other project that can be used to restore the Google parts, which can be found below or elsewhere in the thread. I've still included the various hardware-specific code, which seems to be slowly being open-sourced anyway.

Visit the CHANGELOG for a full list of changes and features!

All source code is available at the CyanogenMod Github!

Non-standard disclaimer:

In order to use this ROM, you must have already installed clockwork recovery. If you manage to brick your phone with this ROM from there, you are a dumbass of unimaginable proportions, and I absolve myself of any responsibility whatsoever. Further, any damage done to your phone with this software is your fault and no one else's.

Q. I bricked my phone/my signal sucks/my cat exploded since installing this ROM.
A. See the Non-standard disclaimer above.

Q. Is the change log linked in post #1 comprehensive?
A. No, sorry, it is not. The CyanogenMod project is too large and too active to do a change log style summary that would make any sense to the average user or project maintainers. Instead, it covers major points between major releases. Can can follow change detail @ http://www.twitter.com/cmsrc. This twitter account posts all github changes to the cyanogenmod github account, which is the repository for the project.

Q. I can't seem to flash the rom successfully, and my Nandroid backups don't restore.
A. Do NOT start Clockwork recovery by powering down the phone with the USB port plugged in. Clockwork WILL NOT operate reliably that way. Power down the phone with the USB cord disconnected so that the phone powers off properly. Then start the phone by pressing and holding the vol-down button while pressing the power button to start. After diagnostics complete, you can enter Clockwork the proper way.

Q. Where is Android Market? I can't find it.
A. Flash the google add-on linked in the download section of post #1.

Q. I lost my 3g connection after I flashed cm6, now the icon just says "H".
A. You didn't lose 3g - the H is for HSDPA, which is enhanced 3g, sometimes referred to as 3.5g. It's a good thing, if you see an "H" where the "G" used to display - don't worry about it. Print this out for next time you head to the can: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-Speed_Downlink_Packet_Access

Q. How do I keep my wifi from going to sleep every time the screen shuts off?
A. There is a hidden feature that disables wifi sleep.
menu > Settings > Wireless & networks > wifi settings > menu (again) > advanced > Wi-Fi Sleep policy > Never > menu > Save
However: although you can keep the wifi service from sleeping, the wifi driver will still sleep on it's own after detecting no bus activity for a period of time.

Q. Will this ROM support over or under clocking with Set CPU?
A. The kernel has been updated to support overclocking with SetCpu

Q. I can't get flash to work. What's going on?
A. Flash 10 is not supported by this CPU and AOSP Android does not support flash lite. Even if a hack allows installation of Flash 10, it's doubtful it will run very well.

Q. Where's the FroYo wireless hotspot?
A. It's in there!
menu > Wireless & networks > tethering and portable hotspot

Q. What's wrong with bluetooth? It doesn't work with my floozengadget.
A. Nothing. All bluetooth functions have been confirmed *WORKING* with compatible devices.

Q. But my floozengadget device is bluetooth compatible. What's wrong with bluetooth?
A. Nothing. Android AOSP bluetooth on the broadcom chipset is not compatible with every bluetooth device. Consistent compatibility issues have been noted with devices using certain parrott chipsets, certain automobiles with factory bluetooth including most Nissans, Volkswagons and an assortment of other devices and autos.

Q. Can you fix bluetooth so it will work with my floozengadget device?
A. No.

Q. Does the FM Radio work?
A. No, and there are no plans for FM radio support at this time.

Q. I miss HTC Sense. Can it be added to CM6?
A. No. HTC Sense is proprietary. Further, it is more than just a launcher and add on programs.

Q. But I really really really miss Sense. Can it be added to CM6?
A. No. And still - no. Yet - no.

Q. What's an ETA for the fixes and when will the ROM be finished?
A. No one gets a dime for this port, and no one works on it full time. It's a work in progress and as we make any significant breakthroughs, we'll update the ROM and post it. Sometimes I take time off from the project just to be a wise ass and beat on jznomoney. I don't know how any of this answers the question, but if it conveys an urgency to meet a schedule, then I recommend reading the answer over and over again until it doesn't.

Q. My widgets don't load or I am missing icons on the desktop or in folders.
A. The sdcard mounts late in the startup process - later than when desktop icons and widgets are loaded. This is a problem inherent in Android 2.2 and manifests itself when an application/widget is moved to the sdcard that has a presence on the Desktop. This is not a bug in this ROM, it's apps2sd in FroYo.

Q. If this is cyanogenmod, then how come it doesn't work exactly like it does on xyzphone?
A. Good question. I guess mostly because it's not an xyzphone.

Q. May I use your work and customize it and republish it?
A. My work is a small portion of this project. Ask cyanogen specifically about what you want to do and if he's okay with it, who am I to argue? Do not ever claim the work you are using as your own or fail to give cyanogen or his team credit for the project and my group credit for the device port or you will be on a lot of s-lists faster than you can hit your spacebar. I don't think cyanogenmod should be skinned up for redistribution.

Q. May I republish this ROM, giving proper credit?
A. Get permission first.

Q. Will you put out customized/skinned versions of this ROM?
A. No. This is meant to be a clean port of cyanogenmod for the HTC Aria, and nothing more. cyanogenmod is an awesome project, and I don't plan to detract from what it is in any way shape or form by customization. Once you install it, you are free to do whatever you like with it. Of course you are free to build flash-able skins and whatever mods you'd like to share.

Сhangelog says that it contains ADW 1.2.0, but in fact there 1.1.5 ?!

joshua54 · Oct 28, 2010

p2600 · Oct 28, 2010

Same here, 1.2.0 on the ADW.launcher. I've never seen much battery savings or speed increase with over clocking under SetCPU, I can't get it over 600mhz anyways.

BTW awesome job on the CM6.1 !!!! Smooth, Fast, fast load on Gallery, quick and stable on the Camera/Video, Good on my battery 1700mAh.

joshua54 · Oct 28, 2010

Probly a real stupid question but I'm not finding the FM radio...do I have to downlooad it myself or am I missing something? Lol

wierd

asiancuta · Oct 28, 2010

Before I do any flashing I needa know how GPS lock time and accuracy and 3D photo gallery is on this. My only gripe with previous versions.
Just got the Froyo w Sense and comfortable with it, but wouldn't mind more options

juicedog · Oct 28, 2010

Just like RC0, RC1 does not automatically ask for the SIM pin code when booting. So the phone would not connect to the network. Anyone else having the same issue?

Is there a way to input the pin code manually or take out the SIM pin code altogether?

Thanks.

Just a FYI, the tap3w0rm.com site is suspended. Anyone have a valid alternate link for the gapps file?

Thanks!

Erm, I really don't know what to say there. My phone has never asked me for a sim pin code when starting it up and its always connected to the network just fine as is.

Take the sim pin out with something else before flashing cm6

You are correct.

lilhaiti · Oct 28, 2010

Quick question. Is "Fix Permissions" a use only as needed option or is it something I should be doing after flashing a new rom. I had gotten into the habit of fixing permissions after every flash, but was wondering if I should be doing this or not. I know it would fix FC's but if I don't get any FC's should I do it anyway?

BTW...great job on the ROM...it is running beautifully, so much so that I couldn't see why I would want to ever go back to stock.

joshua54 · Oct 28, 2010

Thanks lol I had read in another thread about it working I guess I must of misread it... thanks for the info

Thanks. I just broke out my old Nokia and disabled the SIM card PIN on my SIM card. Now my Aria no longer asks for the PIN when rebooting, and everything works fine.

Just as a note, I just noticed that you can control SIM card lock under the security option in RC1. I should have tried that first... if anyone is having the same issue.

Thanks again for your help.

Yeah that would work, but so wouldn't fixing it too.

nubcakes · Oct 28, 2010

does anyone have a decent video player that works with CM6? I haven't been able to use rockplayer or arcMedia since switching from liberated
