[ROM] GB-CMod7-Beta

Well at long last it's finally here. I didn't make this Rom, I only ported it for use on our device! Simply place this on your sdcard, WIPE!, and flash. On first boot be sure to skip past the setup and go to settings > cmod settings > display, and disable the screen on and off animations. I hope you all enjoy. Report bugs in this thread.

Works:
All hardware! (I'm not sure about bluetooth because i dont have any bluetooth devices to test it)

Thank you to asadullah, joneidy, and andyo70 for all the work they do for the community and for making this possible. And of course thanks go out to the cm7 guys!


Enjoy.

Zip Updated!
GingerbreadCM7 ported for Optimus M v0.1
Download

Update:
A2SD support has been added. You will need an ext3 partition on your sdcard. BACKUP YOUR STUFF BEFORE YOU CREATE IT! Can be created using joneidy's custom recovery. After you do this and flash the rom your apps will be installed to /sd-ext/ It will not show your internal memory as being larger but I can assure you you will use about 90% less of your internal memory. Have fun!

Banner Fixed
USB Mass Storage mod Fixed
GPS is improved but still needs work(after you flash the rom, update maps and then go to manage apps and clear data and cache for maps)


After first boot reboot into recovery and flash this to get mms working.
MMS FIX PATCH: http://db.tt/6wxyYtV
Thanks to endoki over at xda because I ripped apart his metroff for the ascend to make this patch.

Bluetooth working fine with my A2DP headphones.

edit: in case you didn't notice (although I'm sure you did) trying to connect via USB for mass storage mode unmounts my SD card. Could that be why it's failing?

Click to expand...

the main benefits of this rom are first and foremost,this ROM is running Gingerbread,the newest version of android..second of all CM7 is the most customizable rom out there.for people that like to have their phone FULLY customized,this rom is for you..there are a few bugs right now cuz its a beta,BUT i could care less.. point is,when it comes to flashing a new rom,it doesnt get any better than Cyanogenmod.this is all MY opinion these are not facts..lol well they could be,but im not saying they are :)

What if you use the metro off file for mms to work like on the huawei ascend for metro pcs. when it has the 2.3.3 gingerbread. maybe it will work?
 
Is anyone having a problem with the unlock screen? When I try to unlock my phone the screen stays black, but lights up a bit. I turned off the animations.
 
just touch the screen after unlocking and the screen will turn on ...i also notice that if you put the animations on when you lock it wait like 10 secs and it will turn on when you unlock it

It stopped acting up for some reason, but touching the screen afterwards does work. Thanks
