Wifi on cm7....

Quick question. I'm using cm7 #8 and am having a hard time staying connected to my wifi router. As long as I am using my phone and screen is on, it will stay connected. If I let my phone sleep for a bit then it loses connection. Using stock kernel. Running setcpu at stock speed...only using it to keep at 245mhz while screen off to save battery. Also using autokilllr memory manager set on "aggressive". Any help would be appreciated.

You need to be posting this on CM's forums, or sending in a bug report with them. (I've never done bug reporting on CM) CM #7 is not their stable release, you're either running a nightly, which are known to have bugs, or a version of CM7 that someone modded into their own rom.
TL;DR version: CM7 is still buggy. Wait for the release instead of using a nightly.

Go to Settings; Wireless and Networks; Wifi Settings and press menu. Select Advanced and then Wifi Sleep policy and change it to never. This is a known bug in CM releases since the 6.1.2 stable release and this is how you fix it for now.

You are the man! I knew it was a simple setting that I missed. Have a good day!

Myns rsl 4 help?

All the other kernels are making me get a line in my screen when scrolling. The only one that didn't do that was stock#17, can someone help me fix my kernel problem or least direct me to stock 17. Thanks in advance, I appreciate it.

You do know rls5 is out right?

What did you wipe before you flashed it? I would highly recommend using Calikulin's format all zip
Flash this, and then reflash the ROM. This should help you

Make sure everything is up to date (PRI, PRL, Radio)
Then flash a #15 kernel. That will fix your problem. Netarchy has a couple of good ones out and MS79723 has a really good SBC one out as well.
RLS4 is packaged with an outdated kernel, which when everything is updated causes screen tearing which is what you're experiencing.
Update everything, update kernel and you're good to go.
As an alternative, RLS5 has an updated kernel if you don't wanna go 3rd party with the kernel flashing, so backing up with titanium backup or my backup (both have free versions in the market) and then doing a full wipe and flash will also fix your problem.
Hope this helps.

The only thing wrong with 5 is me updating the radios. I didn't wanna do the full wipe for optimal use. The screen tearing happened on 5 and 4. Any kernal besides stock.

So that format all gives me updated software or what?

So I decided to just update my PRL and that worked. My phone is not lagging or tearing. I didn't think that would do the trick but it worked. Thanks guys.

i am having MAJOR problems with rls 5 though. i'll see if i can get them sorted out. if not, i'll post. i think caulkin's 1.8 extended data settings messed me up, bcuz now i can only get text messages while in a phone call, and i dont think i am getting 3g.

One reason why I just stuck with 4. My internet was slow AND I had that browser slowness 4 host file flashed..just went back to 4..

Start uninstalling apps. Odds are you installed something that's going to town on your battetry. Start with your most recent installs or anything shady, like wallpaper apps, or anything that tries to control your wifi, like profile switchers. If all else fails, try a hard reset. If that doesn't work, it might be a hardware problem.
Hope this helps

Oxygen 2.0.2 wifi issues

Just wanted to ask a question about the oxygen 2.0.2 rom, does anybody know how to stop the wifi disabling? I've set the wifi policy to never sleep but still the wifi disables. Any answers will be appreciated
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA Premium App

Ive also had this, maybe because of the old kernal?

Which kernal are you using? Im using the 2.6.35.11 the one that came with oxygen 2.0.2, I read that this kernal was changed for this rom to improve usability eg USB speed, but not sure about the wifi problem.

CM7 android system too high.

Okay so I noticed that even with the Tiamat kernal my battery life hasn't been great. I always see above 60% android system usage. I recently did the "GPS FIX" but I never upgraded my pri or NV. I need some help, I may skipped a step.

I would update all of your radios. Also, I think in settings under privacy, unclick back-up. Also, have you considered turning down how often your phone syncs?
It also could be a rogue app stealing resources... Let's start with my first suggestion, radios are in my Sig.

Okay this is weird, I turned off background data and now no system use. Is that saying it's a rogue app?

How many days was it high android use?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App

Ever since I flashed the GPS fix but possibly after Google+ app. Either way its at 81% usage.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

It's still high as hell ATM. 77% consumption. I don't understand. Wish I could get some help.

There is a fix for it you'll have to search for it I only saw it once
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App

Someone had a link for me in their sig but they changed it...and I searched to no avail. Sad cause I don't want to ditch cm7 for something so dumb. Just want my GPS to work without having my android system through the roof. Myn's Warm TwoPointTwo is on the other line. -.-

I had the same problem. Here's the fixes I did before I finally just ditched CM7
I updated my radios (and everything else).
All my syncs were on 4 hour intervals (except weather = 1 hour)
lowered screen brightness
uninstalled facebook, g+ and gVoice (my 3 highest used apps).
rebooted about 6 times
held it wrong
prayed to the gods of android
flashed Synergy RC2
So if you were considering doing those, don't. They aren't the problem.
Ironically, my GPS has never had a problem on any aosp rom (and I've tried darn near all of them), but like you, even with the kernels my stuff just wouldn't work right. I think it has something to do with our phones just not liking the kernel. Give toastch's "godmode" kernel a try or flash back to stock to see if that helps.

Ok so switch kernals or just switch to synergy?
