Wifi Issues on newest build

Hi everyone,
First, congrats cybik on the first and best CM7 port for Photon. It seems to be a very promising effort towards a full CM7 support for the device.

I am experiencing WiFi issues. I leave WiFi on as I am overseas and 3G is hard to come by. My WiFi regularly disconnects with this rom (every time the screen locks), and to get it working again, I need to completely turn off Wifi and turn it back on. It will not reconnect to the Wifi network unless I do this (or reboot the phone).

Is anyone else experiencing a similar issue?

I am running Skype in the background, and I am on a GSM network without data.

Thanks

- Charging while off. Cythrawl put it best: "It acts like an epileptic monkey on acid at a rave consisting of entirely strobe lights."

Nice description of the issue haha

If you want it to stick on, check wifi settings -> menu button -> advanced -> sleep policy

@cybik if the wifi chip is the same, I suppose you could give some use to this too https://github.com/turl/atrix-wifi-module/commit/d582c6c66a0ecb16710b3b7baab8bdd566569c64

I have the same wifi issue and mine is always set to never sleep. Had same problem with stock ROM.

I'll be trying both, thanks turl!

I know this is asking a lot, but is there any chance of bringing a version out of the rom without the sprint ERI in it, so us uscellular electrify owners can roam again? Im sure the f★cks are low, but i figured i’d ask, unless you are fixing the system select for cdma being stuck on home only, in which case ill shut the hell up.. ;)

I have an idea or two about this, but
- I don't know if it would work or not
- One idea would be to try and put it on "CDMA ONLY" mode using the *#*#info#*#* panel
- Another hinges on having a network mode selector directly inside the Settings, since I theoratically have the combination for CDMA+roaming per what MotoStock uses
- I am at a all-time low on my stock of f!cks and it's pissing me off.

Using the info code and setting it to CDMA ONLY loses 3g. Dunno if the roaming issue is fixed (I can try that later) but side effect is that I only get 1x access.

When I took my son home this morning, I have to travel thru a roaming area, so to check it wasn't me, I reloaded the Nov 6th build, and that had service everywhere. When I dropped him off at school I reloaded the Nov 8th build, and no service in roaming areas.. Bloody odd if u ask me!! :D

At any rate I'm still using it as its a million times better than motoblur..

::EDIT if I set to EVDO only I get 3G... weird...

I'm having a new shipment of f#cks sent to you. Wasn't sure if you liked big f%cks or small f^cks, but figured any f*ck would do in the mean time.

The f@cks I ordered weren't Amazon Prime eligible though, so I had to go with the "When ever" shipping method....hopefully you'll get them soon.

In the mean time....ahhh screw it im outta F!cks too.

I found a way to get service in roaming areas. I turned international roaming data on and wham roaming started to work.

IT BEGINS


i'll try, at least

big redaction: get your hopes back to reasonable levels. I'll work on this, but it seems there's going to be some bumps on the road.

Still... ICS dropped. Drink to that :D

    Rules of the thread

    -This thread is dead
    Please access this thread for CM7-related work.
    - NO UBUNTOP. Go spam Lokifish here.
    Honestly, if it was up to me, I'd kill HDMirroring and wait until ICS to try and enable ICSresizing using the phone to generate a 720p output. Could be five mathematically provable types of awesome.
    - DO NOT PM ME FOR HELP. I provide NO support... And I DEFINITELY won't help porting crap skins.
    **** MIUI. There, I said it.
    - I became a bit more lenient
    I'm giving one chance per noob before raining all nine hells on them
    - I got my device back
    I missed you guys too <3
    - I just restarted this (as of April 21st, 2012)
    I have no idea what Turl has been up to. Lemme sync with him.
    - Cougar is cool
    The dev, not the lady outside my office

    Hello, this is my personal/pet project of getting CM7 on the Photon. Now you are not risking SJ's second coming by flashing.

    Latest build is here.

    Not related to mrinehart93's efforts in any way. I'm basing myself on pure CM7 and pure Motorola sources.

    The GSM lock has been confirmed as being in the Radio component. Sad.

    OH LOOK A GOOGLE+ PAGE

    What it is
    - Pure CM goodness. No more, no less.

    What works [as of the latest build]
    - Touchscreen [ 8 points, thanks to mrinehart93's link in his thread here ]
    - Video Acceleration [ youtube doesn't work out of Sprint, WTF ]
    - UMTS 3G radio works [ AT&T frequencies ] for voice, data and SMS
    - GSM [ tested by olegfusion ]
    - CDMA [ data seems to be working ] [ Carrier Name seems to be out of whack ]
    - Back-Facing Camera [ will have to rework some stuff for buttonpress->snap ]
    -- 720p video, woots
    - Front-Facing Camera
    - Gapps are installable and work [ tested the Talk Videoconference component ]
    - GPS
    - Wifi
    - Bluetooth
    --- I derped the kang from the olympus SO HARD. Thanks to Turl, y'all can call from a car now.
    - Youtube (on Sprint's 3G network)
    - Charging while plugged to a wall.

    What derps
    - Charging while off using a computer as a battery pack. It will boot CM7

    What sucks balls
    - HDMI mirroring
    - Youtube (fix found but it's ugly and not unified. This will need to be integrated to Settings.)

    What doesn't work at all
    - WiMAX
    - Sending MMS seems to be splode.

    Off the list of stuff I want to try
    - webtop

    Bragging rights
    - 4 days :3

    Thanks
    - mrinehart93 for the touchscreen link [ here ]
    - the bros at CM for the olympus overlay
    - Turl for MANY things
    - Hashcode for the Phone apk fix here: http://goo.gl/eF1GB
    - CM

    Side-Effects
    - TurbulentEddie, dave0812 and cythrawl have reported that this ROM flashes and works on the Electrify.

    Contributions
    - qbking77, from the Android Creative Syndicate, made a howto! See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tCNLbCdMNuI

    Todo
    - Fix found for Youtube: set the proxies to 0.0.0.0 and the proxy ports to 0 in the build.prop. The specific properties will have to be software-modified down the road. A wifi-events-listener app will need to be programmed for proxy switching on wifi too.

    If you REALLY want to donate to thank me for the groundwork I've done: go save boobies instead. They're more precious (to me, at least) than my beer/pizza fund.
