From what I'm reading over at XDA it is in pretty much the same stage as CM6.2 - BT, MMS, and camcorder don't work, as well as the camera
Other than that, everything else is working just like 6.2

Going to download this and the official update try this out for a little while if I get angry back to ed01

 

[newbie4ever]

I suspect you'll be back soon

 

[thebizz]

We will see it can go without mms and camera for awhile I really don't use them not do it use bt I would rather use the wired jack in my car with voodoo control

Is this Gingerbread based?

Is this Gingerbread based?

Yes, all CM ROMs are Gingerbread based

 

[thebizz]

Cm7 roms because cm6 is froyo based

You're right. I need to go to bed. I'm too tired to answer questions correctly.

Here is a screenshot of the tweet:

No install instructions.... I have opted not to include this in the ROMs thread..

If anyone chooses to install... please report back.. and good luck

is there a special kernal needed for this from stock eb01?

 

[vi3tboiii54]

If im not mistaken CM7 includes a kernel so it should flash over your current kernel without any problems. But im not sure of the voodoo or non-voodoo aspects of it, maybe someone more knowledgeable can answer this.

He states in the tweet that a voodoo kernel is included. The only thing you have to make sure of, when flashing back to another rom if you choose to do so, is to disable the lagfix if you're running a nonvoodoo kernel on your previous setup.

 

[thebizz]

And reflash the nonvoodoo kernel but I must say this runs pretty well yes I miss my camera but man I'm getting better battery life than any ed-ec01 roms I've tried and I love the screen on off animations. Honestly if they could get camera mms this would be my rom of choice but I fear tonight I have to go back to ed01

I'm guessing CM7 is the closest we'll ever get to actual Gingerbread on our phones!

 

[thebizz]

Possibly but at this point I would rather have the source than a Samsung rom
