Root [ROM][FINAL] CM7 7.2 RC1 - g60 style [7.11.12]

viget said:
As far as I remember, I've been updating since TG's final version to Whyzor to g60, the proximity sensor issue has never been fixed. It works for a few times after initial updates, but it goes back again.

The proxitmity sensor issue is:
"when you move [the phone] away from your face during a call, screen stays off."

The screen suppose to back on automatically without having to push power button.

OK. I am on beta 1 right now, I'll report back if the contition exists on that one. I think it would be beneficial to everyone if some others who want this issue fixed to try beta 1 and say that they are so some others could report that they are tring beta2 and so on. If one persone does this, it can take a very long time.

So, who's wit me!
 
Do you think you could explain what the camera fix is? I saw the post that originally mentioned it but I don't get what it does. Thanks.

Also, will it make any difference to me if I'm using a third party camera app?

Thanks again for your great work on this rom.

Basically all the fix does is when you take a picture the square icon that is focused will now turn green instead of the red. Makes sense that a picture taken would be green for good and red for bad.

The 360 Launcher is in Japaneses and this Indiana boy can't read it.

Just go through the setup by scrolling to the left and apply it. There is still some Japanese fonts listed but once the setup is configured it's almost all in English. This is being corrected with future builds. While it's not perfect it works a lot better than ADW in my humble opinion. The screen movements are more crisp and clean, and fades are more rich than before. Along with better themes than ADW offers including lock screens, memory management, battery management and such.

EDIT: If you really do not like it you can open the g60style.zip and delete the 360_Launcher_V2.2.1.apk located in system/apps and download ADW from the Play Store

I don't have time to play today, but I hope it works. I had two calls and they both turned on the screen when I pulled the phone away frm my face. I did see the phone flashing thing during my second test call. I'll keep testing and wait for some confirmation to your fix before I give up.

Yeah I tested 50 calls before I released this morning, pulling the phone away from my face multiple times during each call (sorry comcast). Also did multiple reboots just to verify it wasn't a fluke. It seems to be OK right now.
 
So, if I have wyzor's ROM installed currently, and want to use this one, can I just flash it on top of wyzor's, or do I have to do a data wipe first? If I have to do a data wipe, is there any way I can backup the apps I have installed using something like Go Backup first, and restore them after flashing this rom?

Sorry, I'm kind of new to the whole ROM'ing jazz.

You just need to format the cache & then format the dalvik cache. Install the ROM and then install the gapps. I just did it for my friends Triumph this morning and it worked fine (he was still on Whyzor's ROM). I am sure the same would be the same if your coming from TickerGuy's ROM.

Let me try b0.3. If it still does it, I try want I can do.
 
Im thinking about trying this out again as opposed to CM9, what file do I need to get out of my backup to save my messages? I will most likely copy that file from my cm9 backup and restore to my old cm7 backup then upgrade from there.

Thanks!

What messages are you talking about email or text/sms?
 
Yeah, you're right that the launcher is better. I just wish we had someone here who knew Chinese so that we could translate it over...

The forum which I linked on the first post is working on adding more English to it. Sadly the download area may never be fixed since it links to the remote site. While I was working on building the r0.3 ROM and putting the final fixes on it, a newer version of the 360 launcher 2.3 was released which I didn't see till this morning :p. The next ROM I release will have the new version. Even though there is some Japanese language barriers in the launcher I don't think it takes away from the usability as there is enough English in it to enjoy the launcher.

Is there a way to show the battery life as a percentage in the status bar?
Click to expand...

Yeah you will need to go to

Settings < CyanogenMod settings < Interface < Status bar tweaks < Battery status style < percentage
 
Problem is that the 360 Browser is completely in Chinese. Maybe we should try and remove it as a download option? It is useless unless you can read Chinese. That browser is about 99% in Chinese.:confused:
 
I haven't looked at the browser LOL :) I will check into it and see if I can remove it from the apk. I will also see if I can't get the source code so I can just build it from source during the build.
 
I can't get the volume fix to work. In build 0.2 I could pause for 5 seconds when the bug occurred and it went back to full volume every time without fail.

Today I flashed the new Codename Android rom briefly, went back to 0.2 and it didn't work. Now on 0.3 it still doesn't work...

I loved you for what you'd done when it was working. Help, someone!
 
I couldn't figure this out with CM7 TGR either but when my brightness is set to auto and the screen is off, when I press the unlock key, the screen stays dim for about 3 seconds before it is normal brightness. Is there a way to make the screen normal brightness immediately?
 
One other more serious thing...
In the past when I've installed fresh ROMs, I could open Google Play and Tapatalk would be a purchased download so I would never have to pay since my original purchase. Now, when I open My Apps, all of my previously downloaded apps are listed but Tapatalk is $2.99.

ETA:
Never mind, I cleared the cache and Data of the Google Play app and all is well now when I reopen it.
