Ok so I tried to update via rom manager, and well it all worked fine wxcept it reboots before you can get gapps to install. SOOOO restore backup and try to manually install it. CANT FIND THE SILLY ZIP.

SO I will for now just for go the rom manager updates and hope somebody hosts the file..

Okay I just flashed the 0531 OTA from Web Connect. Rom Manager works great!

Also, my battery is now draining insanely fast! I've lost almost a quarter of the battery in 20 minutes. Anyone notice any changes yet?

After it reboots, just go back to recovery and flash gapps. It's an extra reboot, but that seems to be the only way to do it unless you download the update from another mirror.

i might just wait on this update unless there's something significantly better. since i installed the xionia kernel, i've been a happy camper.

How is the battery life on xionia in your opinion?

I was on the assumption he was on a previous build. If not my mistake.

exactly. i also calibrated my battery after charging this morning, since i installed the kernel yesterday..

i always unplug my phone around 5:40am and have 3G on while at work until i get home around 5pm. at that time, i'm usually around 55-60%. that's also counting heavy use during my half hour lunch and light use periodically during the day. after turning on wifi when i get home, and with much heavier usage, i usually sit anywhere between 25-40% by 10pm (it all depends on how much i use it). so we'll see if the kernel makes any difference. i pretty much figure that i will charge my phone every night while i sleep, which isn't a huge deal. i'm also very glad that i invested in a car charger for family road trips.

Sour Candy: Camera zoom is now 1-5, but the zoom snaps back to 1 when you take the pic.

Edit: Screen on/off animations don't appear to be working, no big deal, just reporting.

Version Release Date Changes
aospCMod-OV-20110534 34 May 2011 * Updated to CyanogenMod 8 (Honeycomb)

 

[ohfivepro]

i am running aospCmod-OV-20110427
if i want to upgrade to the newest version would i have to wipe everything and reflash completely?

in recovery just wipe cache and davil (however you spell it) then flash the new rom.

dont forget to backup before rom flash

please if you can use Rom Manager to get the 0531 do it. If you absolutely cannot here is a mirror. It is my dropbox so please dont go too wild http://db.tt/UGDlqML

Thank you. I really didn't feel like installing 523 just to be able to use the Rom Manager. The Rom Manager does not work with 2.2.1 set up.

I am having a problem with TweetDeck FC after I add accounts to it.. I didn't have this issue until I loaded aospCMod. Anyone have any suggestions? I have wiped caches etc.

Jerry, do you have any ideas on what the VM Heapsize increase means?

Jerry, do you have any ideas on what the VM Heapsize increase means?

It's a computer science term.

Dynamic memory allocation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Java Virtual Machine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Broadly speaking, bigger heap = less available memory, but possibly faster performance. Smaller heap = more available memory, but possibly slower performance. YMMV.

what bugs are on this? and how stable is it compared to his 4/27 2.3.3 release?

Throw it on your phone, and help us find the bugs.

My 3G isn't working. I wiped everything, and still nothing. (I used the zip provided by a user on an earlier page)
