Re: [ROM][WIP] Unofficial CM7 (Gingerbread) - 7/9/2011

i recommend go launcher ex. i have 10 screens(can go up to 18 at least) full of icons and widgets and no slowdown at all with this rom. plus its got plenty of dock options and skins that work well with the cm7 skins.

did i mention that it's free from the market?

Yeah the reason i don't like adw is because it seems to slow down my phone. I do like go launcher but for now im trying to test out the speed of the stock launcher
 
He wasn't rude and there's no rules against requests, doesn't mean the Dev has to oblige as he's done a great job. And the word "nearly" jumps out at you in that sentence lol. Give the Guy a break

is it possible to rip the IME keyboard from reborn and install and use it on here?

Not likely but if you try make sure you grab the clicker.apk aswell as it's required for that keyboard to function.

Was I halucinating when I read the change log I thought wired headsets were fixed? Still getting the same issues as before with mine...

On a side note; got my lcd density set back down to 140, WOOOO!!! :D

i wouldnt know where to start haha i have 0 dev experience and would need someone to walk me through it. but that's cool it'll give me a chance to try the new swype out
 
Re: [ROM][WIP] Unofficial CM7 (Gingerbread) - 7/9/2011

Okay I have successfully managed to build, boot, and use this ROM from source for the VM670 (Optimus V). It runs great and feels like true CM7 as well as says Virgin Mobile carrier with working MMS and so on. The problem I'm having is very strange. My phone booted into and is stuck in landscape mode. Auto-rotate is enabled, maybe I broke the accelerometer I tested the accelerometer with 3D Gallery and it reacts perfectly. with my build.

I guess it's sort of nice because it feels like a tablet in a way and I like the landscape lockscreen.
So Far:
-Forced Landscape
-Keyboard Broken
-Camera Preview is good although the camera app does not respond at all. (video/focus/capture)

If these minor issues are fixed I could maintain a port of this ROM to the Optimus V with actual nightlies.
EDIT 4: Issues could be caused from me using vendor proprietary files from a custom ROM instead of an actual stock ROM. (Or Maybe Not, Considering The bugs are not hardware related.)

An optimus V port would be amazing :D

Personally I like the swype beta, though it seems to bug out when using google+

if you do want to try to put the ime keyboard and clicker apks on this rom it wouldn't actually be hard (assuming they work without any modifications to the apks themselves) you could actually just take the apks out of a current rom if you don't know how to push them to system with adb you can just throw them on the sd card and install them from a file manager (they work fine as data apps ;) ) otherwise if you do want them as system apps you could try moving them into system from a file manager with root access and rebooting the phone (not sure how well that would work)

Well so far so good i love it. It is going to be my everyday rom now keep up the good work!

I just have to figure out how to fix those three issues and the VM670 build would be as stable as the Optimus S build. The problem is I have zero experience (editing source code) with AOSP, but anything linux related I can learn fast. The key is learning what differs in the VM build compared to the Sprint build. Maybe something is different with my java config or my complier that builds the ROM.

I have none of those issues. Try the stock binary blobs. You can also ignore the no route to host while pulling the repo stuff unless you've actually got an IPv6 connection.

Maybe something is different with my java config or my complier that builds the ROM.

The kernel, kernel modules, and a few config files are changed. Otherwise the compiled code is exactly the same. In fact the (VM) camera binary blob has not been moved into the vendor directory and is shared between Sprint and VM builds (which might be causing problems with OS users). If you're having problems like these make sure you've got the various rotation settings enabled (there are four: 0, 90, 180, and 270), otherwise make sure to do a full wipe and factory reset before installing the ROM. I've never had to do this, but I've also never had the problems you're mentioning.

When I try using the stock binary blobs it wont compile without "/system/bin/cnd" for some reason.

It shows a massive amount of warnings for LatinIME including en_US. I figure it might be related to the keyboard issue. inputmethod - Pastebin.com

The connections issues are fixed. My Internet sometimes acts strange at night for some reason.

I just compiled for LS670. I'll check if there's a difference.
