Root CyanogenMod 7 Unofficial Beta 5 02/20/12

Is there a way to carry over ADW settings and desktop configuration when upgrading to v2d? I tried creating a backup, but when I went to restore the settings nothing happened. Do I need to move the backups to a different location on my SD card to avoid being wiped in the upgrade?
 
Edit: Found out how to install Gapps(forgot)

So far seems nice, working smooth

However when I pull my notification bar down, it says Roaming Indicator Off (using the latest v2d)
 
Installed V2----went smooth, no Apps, its ok though just flashed apps from hotfix for v1 worked great.. sofar no problems ill post back later with any news.. thanks again for v2 love it sofar....ill test audio soon...
 
Thanks dude freaking awesome we need a new theme now. Im willing to make a theme if someone would point me in the right direction!
 
Beta 2d

new libaudio, and includes previous fixes I made

I DID NOT FIX ALL THE PROBLEMS YET, I AM FOCUSING ON HARDWARE

It does not include the removal of the Roaming Indicator, it was taking me too long to figure out how to do that.

Do not install the older hotfix that removes the roaming indicator

Some one will have to make a new one with the new files.

Please test this out and post results

Lets try to stay on topic

The topic is working the bugs out this ROM and getting the hardware working

My priority is getting the hardware working right now, so with this new beta test audio very thoroughly, make sure other stuff works too

question which part of the audio was fixed with this update? my ringtones still sound overdriven almost sounds like if my speaker is blown but if i lower the sound by one it sounds a lil better
 
Hey what about the Roaming Indicator Off how do I remove that? I read previous post didn't see anything...

However I am loving it, with Gapps that you had installed smoothly and everything is working fine, ringtones sound great
 
V2 of the Beta fixed my speaker issues. I am now ready to travel to work and use the speaker phone as usual. Thanks for the attention to details. This one meant a lot to most of us. Thanks again
 
CyanogenMod 7.1.0 for Prevail Unofficial Beta v1a

Unlike my Odin and CWM Port this project was a team effort, I wanted and tried to do it by myself, but I could not, it was too much for me.

Wow Hroark! When you said you were thinking of working on a ROM this was NOT what I was imagining! Way cool and way impressed! Thanks for always kicking ass and great work to all of the team that helped you put this together!

Not sure when I might jump to this yet though. With Stock GB being rolled out anytime now I think I will wait to see what impact that will have before I jump through too many more hoops that I may want to go right back through LOL. I am truly excited and anxious to see what all the CyanogenMod fuss is about I've been watching people post about since root was gained and this is my first Droid.
 
is this update only for the audio fix


that is the main thing I fixed

but I resynced with the CyanogenMod repo, that downloads all their new files, and to be honest I am not sure what came down with it

I do notice a new menu option in Wireless networks

so the framework should be new

that is why you cant just install that hotfix that removes the Roaming notiifcation

some one needs to create a new one or show me how to do it
 
First of all...Thank you for all your hard work to everyone involved.

Just installed v2, Gapps, Google Voice, Google Maps, and Telenav nothing else. Contatcs and market sync fine, and no problems downloading. Phone outgoing and incoming works. No speaker phone issues (no need to toggle and no echo). 3G and Wifi working no noticable slowness for me. MMS worked on 3G, and text worked fine on 3G & Wifi. Camera functions. Video too. GPS locked in fine with both telenav and gmaps (though I havent tried it with driving yet). Alarm clock worked fine.

Small Problems:
MMS isnt working for me on Wifi...just says sending, but never seems to finish sending.
The sound from the speaker and headphones is distorted if volume is up all the way. (sound seemed better on my phone before this mod imo) Though this is mostly only noticable with music for me, not so much with calls.
The camera button still doesnt work for taking pictures, but does activate the camera.

So far thats it...Im gonna try to get Dt's A2sd working next. Then Ill try playing with more system settings.
 
Good evening all!

So far, I'm loving the port Hroark, thank you sir. The only issue I'm having believe it or not is not with the original ROM or hotfixes but instead with the latest full update. Sure there were a few of the minor cliches experienced spoken of through out the forum but other than that honestly it ran fantastic! The problem is after updating (I dont wipe or clear anything because I red in an earlier post it was not necessary) it boots up fine, but I noticed it does not contain the market.apk and when I try to register my phone under the "Account's and Sync" settings I enter my info and then it asks for further info as if I was setting up a POP email account or something. There are fields for "Domain/User name", "Password" and then "Server" as well as check boxes at the bottom for using SSL connections also if I uninstall the Email.apk and try the above it reboots, this has never happened in the past. I click accept and a few seconds later it tells me it could not communicate with the server. I have yet to completely wipe, Load Stock and then Mod from scratch which is next. In keep a steady collection of Nandroid backups as I test new mods, roms and scripts so its no big deal.

If anyone has any ideas please let me know, and I will be sure to post the results of a fresh modding from stock. Thanks in advance all!

Joe

I was not directing that at you or anyone in particular, and to be honest I dont think anyone has really gone off topic



I want people to discuss all issues with the ROM including apps and settings and such
 
You my friend will be getting a donation soon!

Love the work and time you put into this, I love having the custom status bar, everything is nice and running smooth.
 
Yes sir I installed gapps upon the initial install as well as the last provided hotfix. After which later I installed the new beta. That's when I experienced the above sir.

when you install beta 2d you have to reinstall your apps including gapps
becase installing beta 2d wipes everything

sorry to make you have to do this but this update has a repo sync and recompile, it is not just a simple update
 
I've noticed that this rom is a little slower than the froyo based roms because i ran smartbench and my score was way lower i wonder why:(

what were the score differences, does it give details of what was faster / slower

the rom seems faster to me and quadrant score is much higher

do you know of any other benching apps we can try
 
Over all beta2 seems smoother hroark. Couldn't recreate the call sound and speakerphone issue anymore. Seems to be fixed. Thanks again dude!!

Just to note: I noticed in beta one that when I made or answered a call sometimes the person on the other line couldn't hear me. Is that one of the issues you intended to address as well?

Haven't been able to recreate it yet in beta2..
