Re: [ROM][WIP] CM7 Port for Optimus S by thekraven 10-10-2011
I'm using this ROM on my Optimus V, did a key swap, renamed the keylayout file, edited build.prop, modified various system/etc files. This version has everything I likr, clockonthe regular spot, and its compatible with the gingerkernel for the most part with theexception of the camera/video display, I tried some things but couldn't make that work, I'm hoping that works later maybeI'll use that kernel.
Only thing is it still says Sprint as carrier lol!
I have tested everything works!

Why don't you just use the iho kernel that comes with the rom? Its far more stable with this rom plus everything works.

this is a great ROM thanks, thekraven.
The only problem I have is the boot animation screen, is there anyway I can change it to the original Cyanogen boot animation? I feel like I'm about to get a seizure with all the flashing lights happening so fast.

This rom is impressive! Blows zvh gingerbread out of the water. Battery lasts way longer and phone runs way cooler. Also no more zvh phone screen double tap issues. Id highly reccomend this. Idk if I'm crazy but I've had better data speed with this, but it could've been that other roms were lagging behind the actual speed.

lol, I just test the Gingerkernel as it gets updated, I am using the bobZkernel.
and at ens04 you can hunt for it but it would be more easily extracted from an archive -> download a cm7 with it like the optimus v ones have http://forums.androidcentral.com/op...inferior-human-organs-unofficial-cm7-1-a.html
for example, I just goto esexplorer go into the archive goto system then media, click on multiselect, choose bootanimation.zip and then extract ot

YOu can either delete the current bootanimation.zip in the /system/media folder and it will just default to the stock android one.
Here is the CM7 bootanimation. bootanimation.zip
Here is a R2D2 bootanimation. http://www.mediafire.com/?i846ogfixthwl96
Either push it to /system/media/ via adb commands
Or use a file explorer with root access.
I use File Expert from the market.
Copy or download the file to your sdcard.
Copy and past the bootanimation to the /system/media/ folder. Make sure you make the folder read/write.
I'm not at my computer to make a flashable zip right now.

Cm7 tip: The ring lockscreen allows for 4 shortcuts to be added. Go to: settings -cyanogenmod settings > lockscreen settings >style options. Now check custom app starter. Scroll down and click custom application. Here you can add up to 4 app quick links on the lock screen. Just press down on the middle ring and drag it to your app to unlock.

So finally customizing this fully, I was wondering if there is a Transparent Statusbar mod without the center clock.
And the ring lock screen supporting 4 shortcuts is amazing! Now I can add camera, contacts phone etc.

thanks thekraven, that was an awesome tip. I didnt even know that existed. This is probably the best lockscreen that I have ever seen, way better than the rotary revamped I had before.

Here is the transparency patch only for 10/10 builds. It keeps the clock to the right. Let me know if it works.
Patch statusbar10.10transparent_patch.zip
Undo statusbar10.10t_undo.zip

I used this method and typed the commands using terminal emulator and it worked.
"1)Copy the custom bootanimation.zip in internal sdcard.
2) adb shell (if you are using adb) (or open terminal emulator on your phone and type su, followed by below commands)
3)mount -o rw,remount /system
4)rm /system/media/bootanimation.zip
5)cp /sdcard/bootanimation.zip /system/media/
6)mount -o ro,remount /system
7)Exit
Now reboot......nd enjoy the new boot animation...."
I'm really confused about this adb thing... If I use the command window on my computer, what should I type before these commands? I used the terminal emulator on my phone and typed "su" and then "adb remount" but it says "adb: not found".

Thanks for this! I would like the clock to be on the right, too!

If you have the android sdk installed, and it is in your environment variables path. You can just type those commands from the windows command prompt anywhere.
There is a way to do it with terminal, maybe someone will help with those commands.
This method looks like it would work http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1123427
Easiest way would be to use File Expert from the market and make sure root access is checked in settings.

Beautiful, thanks so much. Works perfectly :-D
Note to others: don't forget to turn off Wallpaper Hack in ADW Settings or it won't work right.

adb only works in a command window on your PC with your phone connected.
Commands that are run in "adb shell" are the same as commands that you would run in a terminal emulator on your phone (these are all commands that you would run in a unix shell).
The neat thing about adb is it allows you to shorten some steps, but you have to have a PC and usb cable handy. For example "adb remount" is the equivalent of opening up a terminal on your phone and typing "mount -o rw,remount /system". And instead of copying the bootanimation.zip to your SD card and then copying it to /system/media you could do a "adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media" and you're all done.

Go Launcher EX also supports transparency but you have to enable High Quality drawing through its preferences. AFAIK launcher pro doesn't support transparency, but you can bypass that by using "Multipic Live Wallpaper" from the market. The app is meant to cycle through pics on sdcard for backgrounds, but you can set it to display a single pic and run it as a LWP.

Thanks for the info. I did not do a full wipe. I left my data in tact. At this point I am not willing to do a full wipe. I will stick with 9/19 for now. When I am bored one weekend, I'll give it a go.
Keep up the good work. I'll be lurking around and if I see something new that entices me to upgrade, I'll make the jump.
Thanks again
Steve

When I was rooting my phone I downloaded a file and put it in disk C and when I type those commands I had to do something like this:
"cd C:\wherever\you\put\the\files
adb shell
su
..."
I had SDK installed for android screencast but then it stopped working after I installed CM7 so I uninstalled it. Just reinstalled SDK. So I can just type "adb ***" directly from a windows command window now? and what is the sdkmanager.exe window for?
Thanks!
