I've been following this thread since it started, but it can be hard to remember all the issues spread across 50+ pages of posts (I honestly don't know how you do it). It might be a good idea to keep a consolidated running list of known issues somewhere near the first post, I know I check there regularly to see what (if anything) has changed.

Could be. I'll try reformatting it with the HP tool and see if that fixes it. EDIT - Yep, that was it.

Didn't see that for sure. Is the CM7 Gapps the one here?

Gotcha. I'll give it a shot.

Also, APN's will disappear/be ignored if you don't put in the correct MCC/MNC... which again is probably related to the fact that CDMA devices don't actually use APN's.

If APNs are a "hack" is there another way to set the MMSC info?

I noticed the disappearing APNs, so I went back to my FRX7.1 install and found that Sprint/Boost is MCC 310 MNC 00.

No big deal, just thought I'd mention it since the second post says it's fully working. I'm using the recovery.img from the first post, not sure which that would make it.

Get the CM7 Gapps HERE

For the market FC... set keyboard to English/ United States ... Look HERE for answer (and other issues), it was discussed back in Oct

That's not quite correct. In vanilla android, CDMA phones use an APN whose name is hardcoded, and whose MMS info is supposed to be initialized by the carrier as part of their "provisioning". Use of a hardcoded APN is the real hack, from a software design point of view. My patches cleaned things up, removing the special cases for CDMA operation, so that the generic APN menus could be used to edit the MMS info for both CDMA and GSM.

So the rabbit hole deepens.

Not sure what's wrong with OMGB then... I don't think your CDMA MMS patches are in this build tho

unfortunately your patches are only on xdandroid. omgb is almost pure aosp with some stuff from cm7. So unless CM takes on you patches, this is where the who cdma /apn discussion ends.

Does your apn stick with sprint, I haven't had luck with it even with correct mcc et al

APN is only for gsm. The only reason its even there is because you are on a world phone. If you had gsm service, this would show the full menu with the ability to change the settings.. Hyc is right, for cdma we need to do this part ourselves as part of the build. If you look at the cm7 code for all devices they hardcode all this stuff inside. Some research will be needed to see how other devices switch carriers. I know its possible since people are running cm7 on boost and other carriers without a custom build.

Understood, just a little bit of info I found was reading up on some old threads about adb pushing apn.xml from cm into roms since it was the most complete but still no luck, I wouldn't figure it would of been that easy.

On another note what was the fix for keyboard layout, came back to nand after vacation and its first time I get the weird keyboard layout mentioned in earlier posts.

For the kb issue, you basically have to do this stuff manually:

you must be using an outdated recovery. Bottom line is that this is actually executed by the installer in the beginning.

the 1.2.3 released fixed all to work with cm7 and the basic recovery. Just ran the latest one right now and files copied just fine. The file is located in /system/bin/rhodium-nand-seq.sh

You can run this manual if you want from the recovery when system is mounted.

I'm uploading everything tonight.. tomorrow im going to get raped by the gsm folk.. im thinking of a private release first .. lot of things not working for them. As for cdma, only sexy improvements :-p
