Root [ROM][WIP] CyanogenMod 7 | Android 2.3.5 (Gingerbread) | Current Version: 09122011

Wow! Thanks Isaac! I can live without mms, but so far everything else sounds fully fuctional! Now I can move back to CM7 permanently ^^ Thank you very much again.

Question, though: Will Google Maps still take down the system?
 
Thanks to Isaac for working on this:)

Does camera working but taking down the system mean that the camera works but then your phone reboots itself???

Based on past experiences, what happened for me was that upon selecting the stock camera app, the system would slow down immensely until the app force closed. But I use Camera360 instead of the stock camera app, so I don't have to worry.

Did the camera work with that app?
 
Well, it didn't lag the phone up and force-close like the stock camera app did, but the camera still didn't work (I'd get this checkerboard pattern and a moving square instead of seeing through the camera lens)

No, it doesn't reboot. What happens is the you can take pictures, but when you leave the app (a.k.a go to the Home screen), the system slows down A LOT. The only way to bring it back up is the lock and unlock the screen.

I can DEFINITELY live with that. I mean how much trouble could locking and unlocking the screen be if we're getting this awesome ROM in return?
 
I would love to get this on my Phone But I tried to install it 4 times today and it stays in reboot over and over Can someone put the Correct instructions up so i know what im doing wrong Please

When you say it stays in reboot do you mean that it stays at one screen after you choose to reboot the system? If so, you may have to remove the battery after about 10-15 minutes as well as the sd card and boot the phone without the sd card. After the phone is fully booted, you can insert the sd card again. The same thing happened to me when I was installing ICARUS 1.1 and Jazz told me to do that and it worked like a charm.

Does anyone know if this ROM has UIM errors like the froyo ROM?

No way. I built this from source. Meaning I took the Android/AOSP/CM7 source code, made changes to code and built a version tailored for the Ascend.

The reason why the other Froyo ROM does that is because it's a ROM made for ANOTHER phone and someone kitchened it on to the Ascend. No source code means no fixes. That's why there's no updates to it.

question, can it be installed with out losing all data and apps? and will apps from my 2.1 backup be saved to install on cm7?
 
A wipe is required for the latest nightly as I changed the odexing in this build.

EDIT: @Playful: You'll lose your apps.

I followed the instructions from the froyo thread. I used CWM3.0.0.5 and used the cm7 file and the gapp file from isaacs link. Worked like a charm first go for me. I tried installing froyo first but couldnt set up the network settings because of fc errors.
