Hi! Great ROM so far I really like how much of an improvement of battery life I get with the ROM.
One problem, my 3G speeds seem to be significantly slower after flashing. Currently I am getting a 41kbps download speed and much higher upload speed. (around 300kbps)
Any ideas to fix this?

Yes, but probably won't be until tomorrow.
Its just a tiny govt mule logo that I centered up to line up with an invisible lock ring that I was using before I installed this last update. Fades from black to dk blue at the bottom.
I don't know how to edit the lock rings in the ROM.

if you want to edit them you will have to modify the framework-res.apk with the ones you want
Really appreciate your work on this; people like you are the reason I will never use an iPhone.
I just updated from TG's CM7 to this and it was silky-smooth the whole way. The only issue is that a GPS lock (using the GPS Test app) took about 5 minutes, whereas before it took no more than 90 seconds on TG's.
I know GPS on the MT can be flaky at best sometimes, but just wanted to let you know.

Idk... you tell me.lol
Idk lol i have never flashed a cm7 ROM on my triumph other then miui.
Honestly there really about the same... I switch between froyocream and this every couple days or so. And I just thought I'd give you a nonsense answer earlier lmao

AgreedLooks like a lot of people on here like using WidgetLocker ^_^
Lol, you guys should try it if you're not using it, one of the included lockscreen sliders not on XDA in the app is the stock ICS bubble. Check these out
BTW, which app is that music widget from?

It's probably just a coincidence the data slowed after you flashed it. VM's 3G data is flaky and varies by location and time of day. Maybe you can try a re-wipe and reflash if it doesn't improve in the next few days.
It's as smooth as a baby's bottom, as for Froyocream, I'm not sure. It does have pretty good optimizations (debugging turned off, SIO scheduler). I run 61-1024 Mhz interactive governor and notice no hiccups (except when Android is doing heavy app installing/loading in the background).
Yeah GPS is a hit or miss. Not even sure if the gps.conf file makes any difference since TG mentioned aGPS has never worked on the MT, even in stock.
I have a new kernel that might fix the touchscreen reliability (it bugs the hell out of me personally, and I could probably recite the bi041p_ts.c driver source from memory by now). Here it is if anyone wants to flash & test the latest possible fix. Let me know if you notice any improvements or not. It only occurs rarely & randomly, so hard to test.

UPDATE: I notice it still ignores touches occasionally, maybe less often, maybe it's just in my head.
Lol I will flash it
if you get a chance can you try to add more inputs? So instead of 2 finger recognition we could get, say 5 or so? Thank-youfrdmspoplr

Out of curiosity, do you have any reliability issues, besides the occasional unresponsiveness of the buttons/screen? Something that really bugs me is sometimes when I press on the screen, it's not always precise. Like when I'm typing, it'll select a letter right next to where I'm pressing, or if I hold my finger on the screen to scroll through a webpage or play Angry Birds, etc. It'll kinda wiggle like crazy, even though my finger isn't moving. Just curious to know if it's a widespread things or just my screen.

I'm pretty sure it's a hardware limited to only 2. I don't have the tech docs for the module, but it looks like there aren't enough registers for more than 2 touch coordinates (x & y for 1 & 2). Considering how cheap this phone is made, & the snapping magnetism problem, a higher grade 2+ touchscreen is very unlikely.
1 thing that really bugs me is trying to place the cursor in a text box. I use swiftkey x and i can drag the cursor to where I wanted but when I lift my thumb up it moves it over

Yes I think there's a widespread problem in the kernel somewhere that forgets/ignores touches occasionally. These kinds of bugs are hard to track down and can easily escape normal testing when the phone was built (although if they had better QA overall, they would've probably caught it, along with the other problems). So far there are 3 problems from my observations:
1. Touchscreen ignores touches once in a while.
2. Capacitive buttons become unresponsive for 3-5 seconds occasionally.
3. Screen is too sensitive (not enough of a noise filter?)
The kernel I posted may fix 1 & 2 or maybe just 1. 3 may be an even lower level problem that requires hardware docs to figure out (which we don't have). But I find 3 can be worked around if you're extra quick with your touches & flicks. It's sensitive enough, but if you leave your finger on a split second too long, it can register a nearby pixel.

Downloaded the new kernel. We'll see what happens.

I don't know what this would count as maybe 1 and 3? But sometimes when I'm texting fast and want to type out a word it will occasionally go to a totally different letter... although maybe that's also the touchscreen axis snapping... It's not too bad, but kinda annoying...
You need to fix the things that don't work first before going on to add new features. I am not installing any mods if the HDMI does not work and the BT and WIFI cannot be used together for obvious reasons. These things need to work in order for me use my phone.
If these things have been fixed, please let us know so we can start installing the software.
