Hi All,
Can someone help? Want to flash CM7 and from searching the forum I belive it works like this:-
I have installed cwm. Made a backup. Then factory reset/wipe cache. Flash cm7 and fixes from recovery.
This leaves me with a couple of questions:-
Im running 2.3.6 KPP - can i flash over that?
What is the most stable CM7?
How can i convert the file system back if I want to go back to stock?
If all goes wrong will the cwm backup restore firmware or just apps?
Thanks

1. Yes. Compatible with all basebands, supposedly
2. IMO, Grif's CM7. But jusada's Ice Cream Sunday Final/Speed Blur is stable enough for daily use, even though it has its perks.
3. You can restore your backup you just did or flash a stock ROM via Odin.
4. It will restore everything. Literally everything.
Your /system which your previous ROM's settings and apps, /data which has your previous ROM's app data, your /cache which has your cache (who knew?) and other partitions.
Thanks. It seems easy enough. Is there anything not working on grifs / ICS?
On every CM7:
> USB Tether. Because GB AOSP doesn't have USB tethering, and CM7 is based on GB AOSP, you won't have that integrated into the system. You can still download a USB Tethering app, of course
On CM7.2 and ROMs based on it:
> Wireless. It may or may not connect to a specific APN. This is an inconclusive bug since only specific people have it (and there seems to bo no apparent pattern to it). Several speculate it to be in the MODEM part of the Ace.
On ICS (these are not bugs, merely effects of ICS being a barebones ROM)
> No torch
> No live wallpapers
> No DSP Manager
> No Spare Parts or Dev Tools

I wanted to install cm7.1 by grif_07 but had to clear some doubts before trying it coz my primary reason for trying a custom rom is to enable apps2sd. otherwise I am happy with the samsung stock rom.
1. is every feature in the stock rom working perfecly especially like camera and video recording?
2. is apps2sd included in this rom? (important)
3. will I loose swype keyboard? but I believe I can restore it from my titanium backup. correct me if I am wrong.
and also I wanted to know is there some easy way to enable apps2sd in stock rom? without using a pc coz I dont have my pc working now
1) If you're looking for stock abilities , stick to stock .
2) No , but can be downloaded

Install manager by Alfred Neumayer from market is the perfect solution for app2sd on stock rom.
Swype needs some library files if I'm not wrong.

isnt it just like the link2sd app which I use now but I think that kind of apps dont move all the app data to sd something remains in the phone memory.

so it cant be restired with titanium backup?
You can try that. But if it doesn't work, download the beta. There was a huge update and I don't think you'll like to stick to the old stock version.
For a2sd functions for cm7 try s2e
Just register in the beta.swype.com site and the swype installer will be sent to your email account so you can download it with your phone, just install it and swype will be downloaded.

is a modified kernel (not a rom).. it should be stated on the first line of the CF-Root thread.
i recommend you to use the app like scoffyburito said
swype beta is working fine in cm7 grif (dont forget it's still beta and RC )
at last I figured out how to correctly use link2sd huh...
dont think I need a custom rom now. next step would be some kind of ram optimization script then it will b a perfect droid...
What i have currently:
1.) Stock ROM
2.) CF Root
3.) CF Root dtapp2sd.zip
4.) V6 Supercharger (Memory optimiser)
Everything working beautifully.
Anywhere to get RAM cleaner ?
Hi, umm,
I flashed my ace to cm 7.1 this morning. It runs quite smooth. Although there's 1 thing from the stock ROM i seriously miss - RAM cleaner. I just can't live without it and no application can replace it. I managed to overclock it successfully to 902 MHz (stable) . I'd say CM 7 is awesome, it just needs the Clean RAM option. And if it is somewhere out there, can please some1 tell me where can I find it.
EDIT: 902 MHz isnt stable, just rebooted
HI guys,
Need your help, i recently tried using the [Gingerbread] 2.3.7 | Clean Android | AOSP|Beta1 and was successful "restoring" it on my phone but now the USB mode is not showing on the notification bar, the phone is charging and i'm using the original usb cable. I was on Ice cream sunday final before changing to this rom. i tried inserting a new sd card, wipe cache but still no usb mode in the notification bar. Please help me guys. thanks in advance..
i wason stock rom WKS2, updated no problems, usb notification works fine for me. i am using cmw5 and blackhawk kernel. i am having trouble with GPS on google maps and latitude. i get FC from activity maps?
Try to enable the usb debugging and plug the cable.

Hi there. I'm having the same issue with Google Maps. It unresponsive and then I get regular Force Closes.
I've tried re-installing the Maps app from the Market but no improvement.
I hoping the developers will see our posts - I'm not allowed to post this in the main thread because I'm a newbie.

Thanks - I managed to get hold of v5.12 from here:
http://www.apktops.com/google-maps-5-12-0.html
---------- Post added at 11:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:58 AM ----------
I meant to add that installing Maps v5.12 fixed the issue for me.
Now on to the next issue. I cannot get YouTube to work. My phone and Market think that I've got it installed and I can see it in the list of All installed apps under Settings.
However, I don't have a shortcut (launcher?) anywhere for it, so I can't start it.
I can't find anyway to uninstall the app, either under Settings (that box is greyed-ed out) or in Market.
Can anyone suggest how to either expose the shortcut so I can launch the installed version, or how to uninstall this version so that I can then re-install it via Market?
Thanks again!

Hi guys, something strange is going on with my Flash Player and I need help.
I'm in Ketut's DXKT5 btw (with CF-ROOT b84)
I have Flash Player 10.3. But my libs keep disappearing from /data/data/com.abode.flashplayer/lib after a few hours or after a reboot. Then I have to reinstall the package, which is quite annoying IMO.
Any solutions?
Herpderp Adreno + Tegra.
I am suspecting it has something to do with CF-ROOT b84

Why don't you install the Flash Player 11.0 from the forum. See if it solves the problem.

libs keeps disappearing?
Hey guys, I'm kinda late, but I think I know how to prevent libs from disappearing on stock rom:
1. Instal everyting as usual.
2. Download Yaffs Explorer from android market (dont worry its free).
3. Run it > settings > tick root access.
4. Now go find libs on rom, long tap on one > permissions > change 'Owner' and 'Group' to '1000:system'.
5. Repeat point 4 for all libs.
Worked for me

ICE CREAM SANDWICH GUIDE AND NEW FEATURES OF SAMSUNG OFFICIAL ICS AND ROM QUESTIONS
Hey guys. With the new Ics roms there are brand new ways to do things that are very different from gingerbread.
How do I take a screenshot in ICS?
This is one new feature of ICS. Hold down the power button and volume down button.
Can I still slide my finger across the status bar to change brightness?
Yes.
Where is usb debugging and unknown sources?
The usb debugging is now in developer options in the settings menu. Unknown sources lies in security options in the settings menu.
How do I activate face unlock?
Go to settings then security and select screen lock. There you will find face unlock along with 4 other options.
How come when I hold the home button I get this menu instead of the last 6 apps I use?
Google made a better way to multi task in Ics so now everything you used is shown. You can swipe right or left to kill an app.
How do I copy and paste?
Hold down on the screen and move the arrows to what you want to copy and press the piece of paper at the top right of the screen.
How do I activate mass storage, all that shows up when I plug in the computer is mtp?
Once again this is a new feature of ics. To get mass storage go to settings then click more then usb utilities and click usb storage.
How come when I click on phone I no longer see the contact tab in the menu. I only see phone, log, and favorites???
This was done by Google to help stay organized and provide a clean experience to users.
How come with all ICS roms my facebook photos don't sync and how can I fix them?
Well you got me there. For some reason the photos don't sync natively on ICS. I think its a way by google to boost users of google plus. This is easily fixable by using an app called sync my pics or by using friendcaster from the play store?

Hmmmm mostly no
Cuz earlier I had not partitioned my sd card and all apps were normally installed
But in that rom I don't remember the name I had deleted some useless apps from system/app which I wouldn't use.... Does deleting any of those apps can cause this problem?
But with a different rom and nothing deleted it still happens
