[GUIDE][DISCUSSION]Make CM7 stable and better for yourself - Optimus One, P500, V General

CyanogenMod 7 is a free, community built distribution of Android 2.3 (GingerBread) which greatly extends the capabilities of your phone.
We know that ICS is stable for us but CM7 is much more stable when it comes to FMradio, camera exposure, videocam and quality, gaming, A2SD and more.
So lets make it more stable and share the mods, tweaks, apps and stock appps here.
These are few things you should do after flashing CM7 on your P500-
1.Get the best camera libs with best exposure for your p500 here(me) or here(neko95)
2.Get a bundle of all fully working and pre tested tweaks by aspee here(aspee)
3.Get the latest kernel by DJNoXD here(DJNoXD)
4.Supercharge your memory here(zeppelinrox)
5.Fix for manual network search here(BusnjukAn)
6.Soft keys on statusbar, smooth spinner, jelly bean animations here(FitAmp)
7.Do nothing for battery backup, it's already excellent and better than ICS.
What are the other things according to you which make cm7 greater and more stable ? please post it here so that it could help me use GB instead of ICS, and I will update this post.

there is one thing that keeps me away from gb, that is no separate button bar and the buttons on the status bar are too tiny for my fingers u.u

wow v9 already? last time i checked miui was still at v4
joke aside..
how did you managed to incorporate miui weather? does it work correctly?
last time thing i read
is that miui stopped development outside of china for this app
because other devs (go weather) copied it
Have to ask, shows it being ICS 4.0.2 but has centered clock.??..?? ICS framework or real V4 miui pics??
Looks very good!! But is it 2.3.7 or 4.0.2??
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
If i remember correctly galnet originally had incorporated 4.0 framework. It wasnt true ics so they switched it back to 2.3.7 because of the confusion. Im pretty sure this is still 90% 2.3.7.

its 100% not 4.0.2....Apex Launcher works only on ICS...and it did not load here...so this rom is not ICS it is GB....
more over i think it have a small lag with kernel, sometimes it clock on 1600 MHZ by it self and become so hot....need restart to work back normally...otherwise still testing
Its really awesome.....need some fixes ant will be great rom....btw new market ( play store ) facing a lot of FC ( just on this rom )

Was that with stock kernel? Siyah? How's battery life so far?
this rom has the framerwork ics, but it is really only his framerwor ics, so if I say it's a rom that flies
with it being ics framework does that mean some themes from theme manager might not work?

dsp manager doesnt seem to do anything for me
downloaded light version first and added it from another rom and it FC'd when i tried chaning equalizer so flashed the normal version and turning bass on and off doesnt make a difference and theres no presets for any equalizers settings

Recommendation for a good ROM

For a long time I was using the Litening ROM v2.2 which was fine apart from the occasional reboots. Anyway, I recently upgraded to the latest stable version which is v3.6 and have immediately noticed that all the video playback is glitchy. There's also no way to customise the settings toggle button in the notification bar.
Can anyone recommend a Samsung based ROM on ICS that is stable, has no problems with video codecs/playback and allows customisation of the toggle buttons?
TIA
Tweaky Rom, i never tried it but it looks pretty promising. It's Samsung based.
Oh and wrong section, these types of threads aren't allowed. You're supposed to try out roms for yourself.This thread will be closed soon. Cheers.

Yeh, wrong place to post but your new so I am sure they will forgive ya. The thing is, it is not neccesarily the rom you choose, it is how you install it and how comfortable you feel using it. Try RR, that is Ressurection Remix, I have tried nearly 23 different roms and still keep coming back to this. Remember, read, study, install, configure to your liking. Eventually through trial and error you will learn what makes a rom 'good' and what makes a rom 'bad', the enjoyment is in the tasting of different flavours. Enjoy.
This isn't development related and nobody can answer this question for you.
The only way is to flash and try the ROMs for yourself.

Longhorn: too small buttons (height)

I have a little problem with Longhorn.
It's the button height.
Normally, all buttons in stock Android are like this:
http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-v2V9t8REn...kpBwtGMgWM/s1600/screenshot-1329214823390.png
(Just an example picture, please look at the button "fix market")
But my buttons in latest Longhorn were about half the height. (Same width, only the height)
Unfortunately I don't have a picture ready because I am currently on DSC (but will try LH again when the phoenix kernel (Thank you n0p) has advanced routing enabled)
This was quite annoying because I got used to "big" buttons.
Is anything known about this?
I already asked Strephon Alkhalikoi via PM as he is on Longhorn, but apparently he does not have this problem. His buttons are at "normal" size.
I flashed LH over a fresh install of 407.
Currently I have DSC over 366.
I guess I wasn't clear in my other post regarding the buttons. I use CM7, not Longhorn. On CM7 the buttons are normal height.
I thought LH is based on CM7?
Is this your ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1528412
First posting, the one by hPa?
What kernel do you use?
I guess the phoenix kernel for CM7 works for this too?
Longhorn is based on CM7, but Tenortex has made changes to his ROM that don't appear in CM7, and one of those changes or the theme he uses in his ROM may be the source of your problem. So you're going to have to ask him what is going on since he is the developer. The only changes I made to hPa's CM7 ROM, other than adding Sonny Sekhon's ICS theme, are to use Tenortex's patch to change the default orientation of the screen to landscape and the Phoenix kernel for CM7. The kernel should work for Longhorn, but again, you would have to ask Tenortex to be certain.
have you tried adjusting your DPI? long horn uses a value of 160 dpi.
use at least 200
look up DPI changers on the market
I run CM7 at the default DPI of 160 and as mentioned, have no issues. It certainly wouldn't hurt to set his DPI to the default however if it isn't already at 160.
My DPI was at 160.
I now tried CM7. Looks excellent.
Unfortunately tecorntex didnt answer here as I sent him a PM.
hey i have the same problem so shifted to LXdroid 0.2 366BB
have you got any solutions??
Stick with a ROM that is actively being maintained. I believe Tenortex now has a Galaxy SIII, which means Longhorn likely will receive no future updates.

baaahh i just saw this post now, after instaling Longhorn heheh
So wich one is updated now?
Well, if you want to stay on the CyanogenMod train, pretty much nothing is being actively updated. From personal experience you can use the original CyanogenMod 7 release by hPA with the current Phoenix Kernel by _n0p_ and have a device which functions well and with buttons not being cut off. Of course, you do pay a price for going with CM7: no updates, no dock support, phone dialer buttons possibly too small for the screen, and a camera that did not support the zoom feature the stock camera has.
DSC is being constantly updated and both extends and improves upon the 407 ROM Olleh KT released for the Streak. I was using CM7, but the camera and the dialer proved to be too much to ignore after time, so with a bit of prodding I went back to DSC.

Ok thank's, ill try the DSC now, hopping not to screw anything up..
Do you recommend any add-ons with it?
Cheers!
DSC 2.3 receives more frequent updates than any rom and it is the stable rom in my opinion..
Then comes PCM7 it also receives update
LxDroid 0.2 a future update is planned by the developer...

Anyone else flashed a custom rom for 4.2.2?

Evervolv flashed without any difficulty for me yesterday. I've yet to discover any problems with this rom. I also used Rascarlo's gapps to minimize the Google apps installation package. Adobe flash is also working without problems for my NWS radar site. This ROM will probably become my daily driver until my favorite ROM and kernel package is available and tested.... :good:
BTW, I now show 1.6gb of ram under Settings/Apps/Running... .
Official CM10.1 is working great! It seems to run smoother since 4.2.2 for me. Used the gapps from Banks.

Yeah, latest nightly seems to be working well for me. (17th)
I'm running the latest version of Jellybro, no issues so far.
Running latest CM10.1 which pretty stable and solid for me.
AOKP (2/17) on 4.2.2 also seems stable so far...
Finally decide abandon CM 10.1
Now running Unofficial AOKP 4.2.2, 1st time running AOKP, never know it was that cool! It has more customization to do.
- Better customize function in AOKP v/s CM 10.1:
- Switching between PHONE / TABLET /PHABLET UI Mode!
- Set transparency level, height & color Navigation Bar.
- Transparency level for Notification Bar.
- Layout changes for Statusbar Toggles.
- Clock position switch.
- LED light changes
- Custom Boot Animation. (Pre-loaded with stock animation)
So far AOKP was running stable as well.

I just got mine last night as well, going to try AOKP tonight.
I have ran several Linaro kernel/ROMS on my Nexus 7 and its not the magic speed bullet you might expect it to be. Maybe 2-3 % faster.

Have you had any problem with the navigation bars disappearing in portrait mode?
I tried AOKP a month ago and ran into an issue where the navigation bar buttons disappeared whenever I turned my device into a portrait orientation. Since then, I have been running Cyanogenmod nightlies and have been pleasantly surprised how reliable they are despite the moniker "nightly."

I believe latest build fixed it. Never encounter such issue.

I was just playing around with AOKP. It's improved leaps and bounds since I last tried it. I really like the Tablet UI feature. I might switch ROMs when I have more time to play around/migrate settings.
(And no, I didn't run into the buttons disappearing in portrait mode.)
It's back to CM 10.1 for the time being...

Pac-man rom versus cm10.1

Hi all,
I know that pac-man rom says it incorporates CM10.1 and other goodies. But which is really better? What is in paranoidAndroid and AOKP that is not in CM10.1?
Cheers!
tls1
It's really a subjective matter; one isn't necessarily better than another. It's all what you like/prefer/need. Cyanogenmod is known for a good mix of stability, performance, and tweakability. Paranoid Android, for the most part, builds on Cyanogenmod and adds the hybrid engine for a hybrid phone/tablet layout that gives several options for customization. I haven't really used AOKP, but I do know that it is extremely customization oriented.
I'm using the Pac-Man Rom and it's working (almost) like a charm.
Only things that don't work are
1) Rear Camera
2) No zram option
3) Minfree Taskkiller not doing anything apparently, have set it to 50mb and never ever have 50mb free Sometimes even less than 5mb, which makes overall smoothness suffer a lot.
Other than that, with some initial troubleshooting I got it working perfectly fine, and it's A LOT faster and way more customizable than my previous Gingerbread Rom. There's some hidden setting for everything
I had to install and boot CM9 first though, then edit two entrys in build.prop (change venturi_usa to venturi).
Is there a way to make the minfree manager work? Can I just install another one from the market or is it gonna interfere with the one that comes preinstalled but doesn't work in the performance settings?
Nvm, user error. When I enter the task manager it just shows wrong information. Under running apps it appears to be showing the correct value.
