Well guys, I do apologize for the downtime last night (which in effect delayed the release of this), so here it is!

NOTE: THIS WILL ONLY WORK ON OFFICIAL CYANOGENMOD 7 NIGHTLIES, BUILD 21 AND ABOVE. YOU CAN GET THEM HERE — UNFORTUNATELY I CAN NOT OFFER SUPPORT IF YOU ARE NOT USING THE OFFICIAL BUILDS

There should be no issues experienced with this build, as there were with 1.1 — the changes were actually merged and built into CM, and everything is updated and working. It’s tried and tested, trust me. :)

First and foremost, I want to thank zinx for making WiFi Calling on Gingerbread in general even possible! Without him, this would not have happened. I also want to thank my girlfriend for putting up with me spending hours and hours on the computer (or I could go King style and say “thanks to my patient lady for putting up with my devvin!” lol)

PREREQUISITES:

  • Nexus One
  • T-Mobile USA as your provider of phone service
  • CyanogenMod 7 installed to your device

UPDATE (01/21/2011): It’s been suggested that WiFi Calling only works on the 5.08.00.04 and the 5.12.00.08 radios. For best results, please upgrade your radio.

NOTE (01/30/2011): I’ve been hearing of issues trying to use this in conjunction with DT’s APPS2SD implementation. I have not tested it in this configuration, so I can not guarantee if things will work or not. For any issues with this configuration, please post in this thread for help.

By installing this update, you agree that if anything goes wrong with your phone, your house, your life, etc, that it is your fault and not mine. This has only been tested on CyanogenMod 7 on the Nexus One. I have not tested it on any other builds, or any other devices. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.

Now, onto the fun part. This is in standard update.zip format. Simply flash it via recovery, and reboot. Go ahead and turn on WiFi, then WiFi Calling, and enjoy. (NOTE: This has only been tested with the latest ClockworkMod recovery. I’m not sure how Amon_RA will work.)

KNOWN ISSUES

  • Low volume on the other person’s end (i.e. they have a hard time hearing you) — same issue as CM6, which is out of my control, so please don’t report this.

Any other issues, please report them here.

I will keep this updated as updates come in, so check back often! Also, please follow us on Twitter!

If you enjoy my work, please, help me out and donate some money. I really hate to ask, but I need it now more than ever. I was laid off from my job, along with many others, because of the diminished economy, lower product demands, and the fact that a significant part of production is moving out of state. I have been adamantly looking for work, to no avail. Life has been nothing but a struggle lately, and I appreciate every penny. Whether you donate $1.00, or $100.00, it helps out… more than you can imagine. Thank you.

So, there haven’t been any updates recently, and this is why…

The T-Mobile G2

I got my T-Mobile G2 on Friday, and I’ve been using it since. It’s a great phone, very solid hardware. The whole “loose hinge” issue is not an issue, it is design. It is incredibly fast. I definitely think this was a wonderful update route from the Nexus One, and I can’t wait to see it rooted, and CyanogenMod installed, that shall truly unlock the potential of the hardware.

I’ve been working with a group of others on rooting the device. Well, we have temporary root, however, we are lacking eMMC NAND read-write access. If you think you can contribute to attaining this in one way, shape, form, etc, please go ahead and join us on IRC — #G2ROOT on irc.freenode.net:6667 (7000 for SSL).

However, do not let this post disappoint you. With the hardware being very similar to the Nexus One, once this is rooted, updates, themes, etc should be cross-compatible between the two devices. Also, I will try to get another update out to you guys within the next few days here, as I still have access to my Nexus One.

So, keep coming back, and expect updates and more stuff soon!
