[ROM] CM7.2 Port for Optimus S by thekraven 3/9 zvd only
- CyanogenMod Gingerbread Port. CM7 unofficial. Gingerbread 2.3.7. For ZVD Baseband phones. Will not work with ZVH official Gingerbread phones. Let me repeat For ZVD Baseband phones. Check your baseband before installing this by looking at Settings/about phone/Baseband. Could be zvd or mvd. If it says anything else like ZVH you will not have data or phone service. Look for the ZVD downgrade thread by sfhub. [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] Make sure your 3G data, calls, and GPS work prior to flashing this. Get rooted and install Xionia Recovery or Team Hydro cwm Recovery.
I've been wanting to make a few builds since Zefie stopped, and finally have a few built using Inferior Human Organs (IHO) sources and Drew's Kernel. Nothing too customized, just syncing with IHO repo. similar to where ath3nos left off. The goal of this rom was to be just a lean barebones version, but i added the latest full sync I built. Dealing with CM7 nightly updates, things get fixed and also broken at the same time. So please report any bugs you encounter.
See here for CM7 menu explanations, thanks to Jerryscript [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]
So far its the lastest sync with the InferiorHumanOrgans Gingerbread and CM7 branches. 9/25 + builds use IHO-BobZhome's kernel. 8/31-9/22 builds have drewwalton19216801's Xionia Redux kernel.

Re: [ROM][WIP] CM7 Port for Optimus S by thekraven 9-2-2011
thekraven:
FM radio does not work.
I dont know if the problem is with the app or the ROM though.
Re: [ROM][WIP] CM7 Port for Optimus S by thekraven 9-2-2011
FM never worked with our phones, it is part of Cm7, so it installs with each build. And can be removed in titanium backup. Thank you, I'll add a note about it.

Regarding Tapatalk, I found by copying the link location in TapaTalk (or the native browser TapaTalk opens to) and opening the link in Skyfire or another browser that you can download the ROM on your device.

WIP = work in progress build.
CyanogenMod Gingerbread Port. CM7 unofficial.
8/31/11 - fixes headset with mic's during calls. CM7 sync broke the camera and cm settings.
Kraven: Congratulations on developing this really smooth and user friendly CM7 ROM.
The reason I switched to your ROM was the 8/31/11 changelog indicating that the headset with mic's during calls issue had been resolved.
Unfortunately this does not seem to be the case with the 9/2/2011 Barebones 63 MB version of the ROM; the handset microphone does not work during calls with headphones plugged in.
I followed the instructions to the smallest detail and double-checked everything on my end prior to posting. I'm curious if the mic/headphone fix was either somehow not applied to the 9/2/2011 version or if it is only available in Full IHO sync???
Any guidance you might provide would be really appreciated.
Thanks!!!
Re: [ROM][WIP] CM7 Port for Optimus S by thekraven 9-2-2011
Oh sorry for the confusion. At this moment, only the phone calls with headset mic is working, as stated. It was broken in a 8/25 sync, but fixed again. I'll add that to the bug list. With the release of official Gingerbread for our phones coming soon, there's a chance it will get fixed soon or Blarf fixes it. Hopefully the main repository comes back online soon, and get some new builds made.

Thanks Kraven, I appreciate the quick reply and explanation. Thanks for adding the bug of the headphones being plugged in causes the handset microphone to not function during calls; I'd be thrilled if a fix is finally found.
I had mentioned the issue to Drew right before his ROM took a sabbatical from updating.
Thanks Kraven!

I was using Drew's ROM and flashed to Kraven's latest build because I thought it had a fix I was looking for. While it did not, I've found Kraven's ROM (I'm running the barebones version) to be absolutely fantastic. I have stuck with Kraven's ROM because I haven't experienced any performance issues and everything works splendidly. For full disclosure, I also installed the collin_ph battery tweak which has improved both performance and battery life.
