For the s series no audio or mic comes thru on any calls incoming or out going on any of the cm7 roms I have tested tried to reboot and it remembered my device with this rom never tried rebooting
The other roms

Seems as if you didn't wipe everything in the recovery menu. Make sure you wipe dalvik-cache as well under advanced settings.

I am having an issue with the individual ringtones, (the ones you assign to contacts) had the same problem with zefie's... It always plays the default system ringtone. Every once in a while it will play the ringtone i have selected but the very next call it reverts back to the default system ringtone.

I thought that this was an issue with the fact that I (on zefie's rom at least) switched tone pickers no fewer than 4 times but I'm having this same issue on this rom and I've ONLY used the stock ringtone picker since flashing it. Is anyone else having this issue? If not then maybe there's something that ddroid94 and I are both doing wrong.

Sorry there has not been an update lately. I will have to wait until tomorrow when I get back to work in order to compile it.

For those interested in a2sd scripts, here's another option. I have been using Darktremor a2sd (Version 2.7.5.2-1) and it works well with Cyanogenmod. I used it for my HTC Hero and now on my Optimus S. I have used it with Zefie's ROM and currently using it with his ROM.

Follow the link above to download the flashable zip.

I looked through the thread and couldn't find anything on a problem with receiving picture mail. I did notice that others had the same problem on similar CM7 builds but no solutions. Any Help?

MMS should work fine on this rom: I'm running it on my phone and I can send and receive pictures just fine. What rom did you come from? Did you do all the wipes suggested in the OP before flashing?

Where can I find a "features list" of this ROM and a list of what is currently not working on this ROM?

I really want to try this ROM but I need to know what features work and which do not work.

For features check out everything at www.cyanogen.com
As for bugs on our devices I know built-in USB tethering doesn't work and Bluetooth is working except for phone calls, media sound and everything else works for bt other than calls. The FM radio doesnt work. Those are the three bugs this ROM has iirc.

I currently have http://forums.androidcentral.com/lg...ustom-recovery-optimus-s-thunderc-sprint.html custom recovery. Do I have to flash Xionia Clockwork for this CM7 ROM to work? I can I flash the ROM with drellisdee Custom Recovery?

Xionia... To my knowledge it's required for all CM based roms.

Quick question, I just rooted my optimus s, i flashed reborn rom and picasticks kernel. I want to try this cyanogenmod but I'm scared lol. If I flash cyanogenmod to see how it works, can i then go back to the Reborn ROM and have everything restored back to the way it was before I flashed cyanogenmod? Would I just boot into recovery and restore my nandroud backup? Is that how it works? Sorry I'm a newbie

That's exactly how it works yes; the nandroid backs up pretty much everything including the boot image and cache (funny considering how often I wipe my cache lol). But yes; as long as you make a nandroid of reborn first you should have no problems. I would also grab titanium backup if you don't already have it and backup your data; you can restore at least some of it after you've flashed this rom. I just wouldn't recommend restoring any system data.

Well I'm currently running my alpha build (v0.1a5) The only bug I have with my build now is the default language in the settings is set to Md instead of English. I compiled a sixth alpha build (v0.1a6) using the last post of instructions you gave me about lunch and make ota instead of brunch, but I haven't had time to test it yet.

In short the language bug is the only bug that's not in ath3nos download.

Well after an hour of trying to load my alpha 7 (0.1a7) build onto the the phone I've almost given up on something so simple. I concerned to apply to ota zip that came from the build because it has a recovery.img and I don't want to take a chance at flashing a new recovery because the one I have now is perfectly stable.

So I put the images into the xda htc kitchen to rebuild a zip. I've used this process dozens of times with no issues. It says the rom should be updated to edify (updater-script) so I use that option because I have CWM 3.x. When I try to flash the zip cwm says it's not edify and won't flash. I checked the zip and it is. WTF CWM? At this point I should just flash the ota regardless of what happens to my recovery.

Now to the important part about what's causing my bug.

I know the bug that's changing the letters on my keyboard is related to the language setting and figured that all default settings would be defined in the build.prop

ro.product.locale.language=mdpi
ro.product.locale.region=

I found these in all AOSP/CM7 based ROMs for V/S devices including Zefie's, ath3nos, and AOSPCMod.

ro.product.locale.language=en <- ISO code: English
ro.product.locale.region=US < ISO code: United States of America

Now that's what the stock ROM build.prop looks like.
Meaning the AOSP ROMs are set for users that speak mdpi and not English. (doesn't make sense)
The locale/region value is empty, now because of settings in the android make files are set for "en_US" that value automatically defaults to US.

The issue with this is that under Settings > Language and Keyboard > the default setting is "Md (United States)" The problem caused by that is the top qwerty row on the keyboard has long-press for numbers on some keys and long-press for accented letters on other keys. Normally they should all be long-press for numbers.

At this point I would show screenshots to prove this and test more to see if correct en_US values fix this, but I cannot flash the zip atm (still working on it).

EDIT: Now after flashing it's showing United Kingdom.

My understanding was that mdpi was relative to our screen size... I've never had issues with xthe letters on my keyboard...

Yes somehow the mdpi value for two letter iso code language must have been put in the wrong string. (not blaming anyone) This is an issue specific to my personal "iceogenic" builds. It is my understanding that this isn't affecting mainstream releases for the main OP. Still it's an error in the build prop and should be corrected accordingly.

Please open an issue on Github and/or create a pull request.

I will open an issue. I guess with all thunder forks no one really noticed or fixed this?
Also as promised here are those bug screenshots.

I've used AOSP and now this one, both using the Thunder Recovery. No problemos as far as I know.
