I've been on CM7 by almost a week now, and I can tell you it's amazing. Very smart rom, lots of customizations possible, gingerbread based...
The only side effect is that it's still on beta stage. This means that has a list of medium and small bugs that could upset the phone user. It depends on what kind of user you are. If you like to try new features and don't mind encountering some little issues, then I recommend you to give it a shot
For any reference, question, problem, read the CM7 thread in the development branch.
hey thanx then i will try today xda rocks...!!!!!!!
CM 7 is awesome!!! But still there are some bugs in beta 1.1 like after a call, sometimes the screen turns black and returns to usable state after a minute or so. There are some bugs in DSP manager and hardware decoding of videos don't work. But remember it is still beta, so no complaints

i installed z4root @Permanent , then i copied flash_image and
recovery-RA-GNM-thunderg-1.1.0.img , all command's worked except this one mv /system/etc/install-recovery.sh /system/etc/install-recovery.sh.bak , i continued , then i downloaded the CM7 b2 by mik, format.zip , kernell.zip by mik, googleaps.zip by mik, ii entered the boot mode , i flashed format , then kernell , then cm7 then googleaps , then i chose reboot , the phone rebooted showed me LG logo , then CM7 Android LOGO and it froze, ii had to remove battery , and restart phone and the same it froze,
can anyone help me ?
sorry for my bad english
@xzet2
I too had the same problem. Here's what I did :
(First wipe all cache, dalvik, android.secure (?) , factory...etc.)
1) Reboot in recovery
2) Flash the format.zip ( or better yet, the Debug-FormatSYSTEM.zip )
3) Flash cm7 beta2
4) Reboot into CM7 beta2
5) Reboot into recovery
6) Flash gapps
7) Reboot into CM7 beta7
Hopefully, it'll work.
Can any of the CM7 users tell me what all is different in it as compared to normal 2.2/2.2.1 ROMs?
Awsome 2.3 for Optimus One
Hello to all,
Great build of Gingerbread for P500H.
Just installed last night and seems to be great.
For tethering, download Android Wifi Tether from Market.
So far no black screen issues.
Gps getting a faster lock then with original rom.
However, bluetooth still seems not to work properly.
Thanks a bunch

Hi, I have question about CM7. When I want upgrade from .void and save some kind of image of my system, can I do it without consequences? I mean make nand backup, flash CM7 and when wont like it I could return back to void and use it as before using restore nand backup am I right?

Hi, yes, it is possible, I have the same option of going back, I also used .void, and wanted to try CM7, but I was very impressed by .void ROM, and I have just finish all customizations, so I didn't want to loose it all. Here's what you need to do:
Start phone in recovery, and try to make nand backup (nand + ext + .android_secure) but what happened to me, it wrote an error and that I have to make it via adb shell. You will find how to install adb here:
addictivetips.com/mobile/what-is-adb-and-how-to-install-it-android/
(Sorry, I'm still quite new to forum, so I can't post it as link)
When you have adb, run cmd and type (Phone must be connected and in recovery mod, and have to have mounted /system - but I'm not sure about mounting ):
"adb devices" - you should see your devices with serial number.
"adb shell"
"nandroid-mobile.sh -b" - this will start backup to your SD card into "nandroid" folder
When you have your backup done, you can start flashing CM7. I wiped data+cache, then flashed "Debug-FormatSYSTEM.zip" from CM7 thread, flashed CM7 itself, restart your phone and you should be running CyanogenMod
note: if you want to flash Google apps (I assume you would), you have to boot CM7 at least once, because if you flash it immediately after flashing ROM itself, you will see .void booting screen and phone will freeze, and you will have to flash it all again.
And finally, if you'll prefer going back to .void, just restore your backup in recovery mod, and you're back I have two backups, one of .void, one of CM7, and can switch theese ROMs (by restoring backups) in up to five minutes
Hope it helps
Man its awesome. Real speedy. Installed yesterday. I even installed Darktremor a2sd. It is also working cool. Moved cache and data all to my SD.
Cm7 though, does not have titanium backup pre-installed. Rename ur titanium backup folder before u install. I lost mine. Got over written.
Will be testing during week end.
Here is what i did.
Downloaded the 3 files from the first post.
1. Backed up my apps using Titanium.
2. Backed up contacts.
3. Booted into recovery.
4. Connected into PC.(Linux in my case.)
5. Formatted the ext partition to ext4.
6. Deleted the Android folder in the fat partition.
7. Wiped cache, Dalvik Cache, and android_secure from recovery.
8. Copied the 3 files into the fat partition.
9. Copied the Darktremor A2sd zip (Do a google search for "Darktremor a2sd zip" without quotes)
10. Flashed the Debug-FormatSYSTEM.zip and the ROM.
11. Then rebooted.
12. Again Booted into Recovery.
13. Flashed the Darktremor A2sd zip.
14. Reboot and start terminal app.
15. su (to get root access)
16. a2sd cachesd (phone will reboot)
17. a2sd datasd (phone will reboot)
Thats it folks.

Update:
No Black screen after making/receiving phone call.
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App
Yes, it's great, but there are some small problems with black screen after calls for me, slow GPS and the most important is battery drain. But its still beta and its amazing on the other side. I am looking forward to next steps beta 3 or rc.
I'm testing it too, It's relly great and fast.. but i've found some bugs, hope that devs see this thread as well(I don't have permitions to post on the official thread):
- Black screen after call;
- Do not save the keyboard selection over reboots(I have to activate a select every boot)
- Can't connect to eduroam, don't know why tho..
EDIT: GPS icon is not showing on status-bar.
I relly apreciate the job done!
i've used this phone almost 1 year with no problems for cyanogen mod 7.1.0
when i play some apps general i've notice a bit slow running like exactly if you have a pc old that run pretty slow for playing game.
This never happened when i buy first time but now i have this problems from a fews days ago i also didnt installed others apps untyl now so i have no idea where exactly come out this problem.
Thought i have too much apps around 99 apps so i've take decision to format all on sdcard and data, cache and wipe data factory reset (i've also flash from 7.1 to 7.2 cyanogen) and wipe dalvik. Like everyone do usually....
At the end when is empty all apps i tried to install JUST one game and still got same problem.....its running SLOW sometime but i dunno why.
Someone can explain me why do this strange behavior? is a problem hardware? i dont think is something to do on software or programs apps issue.
this make me nervous now...
Can you try installing a different ROM?

Ok but doesnt make sense if before was working fine with version 7.1 almost 1 year (i tried reinstall 7.1 but is same problem) so why having problems now? i dont have nothing on phone right now is pretty clean cause of formatting at all...
So come to think this phone is not normal...
Format your /data /system /cache and /dalvik. Then flash whatever rom u want. I would suggest first downloading the newest cm7 or cm9. But u could stick with what u had if u Want.

EDIT= i did format too sdcard definitly complet i guess and result? nothing
No is not possible! I tried to flash now for last cyanogen mod 9 nighty and still SAME PROBLEM AGAIN.
Help i cant do nothing?? I tried many alternative but im out of idea now -.- so sad...
Really not sure what the problem is but I just wanted to suggest that you return to stock via Odin and see if you are still experiencing the slowdown.
so i have just finished flashing through odin the latest version of siyah so as to get root+ cwm, i was hoping to get the classic CWM touch but instead i got a CWM-based recovery, is it still the same ? will it work as intended when flashing roms and all ? thanks.

any idea what could be going wrong ?
Oh and before i installed cm9 i wiped data/factory reset, i cant see any of my old applications now, but i can still see folders on my internal sd card that are called whatsapp, 9 gag, etc.
what should i do to remove ALL apps and start installing them from scratch ?

You were suppose to download and flash Gapps.
Visit CM9 thread again, you need to download Gapps (Google apps)
1. Download Gapps,
2. Boot to CWM recovery
3. Flash Gapps
4. Reboot phone
Problem solved!

## be very careful, some of the folders contain very important things from your previous activities.
1. Your download folder contains all your downloads from your browser
2. Your whatsapp folder contains your chat history
Etc.
Before you wipe your internal SD, I'll advise you to backup the ones you feel are important.
## To format your internal storage, follow these steps:
- Goto Settings - Storage,
- under your internal storage (size = 11.49G), Select ERASE SD
- confirm your action.

Great, I erased my sd card and problem solved, flashed gapps and got everything ...
Some questions which have nothing to do with this:
1) How can i get touch recovery ? just open up rom manager and tap "flash clockwork mod recovery touch"? or is there another better way to do this ?
2) Is there any way so that when i get a SMS or a missed call, something will notify me on the screen that i have a new sms or missed call ? (i had this on stock ics, but when i flashed cm9 it just dissappeared.). Reason i need this: Sometimes i dont hear my ringtone and it is kind of annoying to have to unlock and bring down the notification bar just to check if i have something new.

1. Never use ROM manager on your phone. In fact, Disable or Remove the app at once. It is a very risky app, which has led to brick on many Galaxy S2 already.
# If you want touch recovery, you can flash Siyah kernel, Dorimanx kernel or Dream kernel. they all come with touch recovery.
2. Use a third party launcher. The default launcher (Trebuchet) lack this feature.
Holo launcher HD, Apex launcher Nova launcher, Go launcher EX, etc all have this function implemented

Thanks for the tip of uninstalling rom manager from my device !
1) cant i just download the cwm touch from here: http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager and just flash it through my current non-touch CWM ?
2) I thought such a simple feature was integrated onto the rom but ok, i'll try those options.
oh and is there anyway to go back to my stock ics keyboard ? the buttons and letters are kind of small on cm9.

You may use that. It should work fine but I must tell you that I've never used that method before. I always use custom kernels
2.a. that's because the launcher in development by the CM team.
b. If you are looking for Samsung keyboard, You can't have. Sorry about that but there are better keyboard apps in the market with some of them having the option to change the theme to the Samsung keyboard style.

it should work fine.
So I just realized that A2SD really corrupts your phone. Why?
Because every rom I use with A2SD ends up having the same problem over and over again, no matter what rom I'm using. And as a matter of fact, it's happening to me right now AGAIN after 3 weeks of recovering from a major one. Last one was worse because I couldn't wipe dalvik cache or flash any roms from CWM and had to completely reflash a 5 package with Odin.
Your phone will start turning off randomly. I myself just found my phone off WHILE CHARGING again. The common factor between all the roms I've been using is A2SD. No matter what script or mod I use. The fist time it happened to me was using Jusada's ICS final and now I'm all the way on The Myth 2.
I will still be using A2SD since I really need the extra space. My C++ compiler by itself is 60MB.
Just wanted to let you guys know, if it happened to you, you're gonna have to reflash a new rom all over again. If you can't wipe something from CWM before installing a rom, Odin is your fix.
Just want to make this clear, does your phone turn off completely or does it reboot?

I've been using the INT2EXT4+ script for a few months(?) and I havent got in touch with this issue. You could try to go stock for a week (with your essential apps installed + another sdcard) and see if this occurs to confirm it, such a hassle though...
To me this doesn't really sound convincing if I were to be honest, mostly because it hasnt struck me (yet).

I don't know. It keeps happening to me constantly. I just finished reflashing Myth 2 again. The script I was using before was INT2EXT+. Going to do the same thing all over again. I'm not sure if its the SD because this happened way back in the Jusada days and back then I had just recently bought my phone + SD.
Even while using S2E on CM7 and while I was using DT's A2SD when I first started using Myth 2. Not really sure how it's possible. This is my only theory.
Yep I also have issues with different A2SDs.
S2E
After a reboot my sd-ext is not mounted. Had to use Advance restore in CWM (sd-ext only)
Darktremor's A2SD
Random bootloop after a reboot. Had to completely restore CWM backup
INT2EXT/4
After a reboot, sd-card is only mounted as R/O. Had to use Advance restore in CWM (sd-ext only)
So every once in a while I always do nandroid back-ups. That's the only solution I know. But now I deleted scripts in my init.d specifically Adrenaline Engine because I noticed some of them has remount scripts at boot. I only left the default ones and the a2sd script. After a few reboots no problems so far. Hoping this will continue for a long time. :fingers-crossed:
I don't think that the matter is to be taken as drastically as in OP.
Using an a2sd script obviously puts your phone in the condition to be less stable than before, but some little steps will help you facing it.
1) If dalvik is moved to sd-ext by the script DON'T WIPE IT. It will result in phone not booting. If you are using INT2EXT script there is a flashable zip which wipes it in a secure way (just have a look at the Cronmod topic in this forum).
2) If the SD doesn't mount properly try taking it away and cleaning it (I think blowing at the SD and at the socket will do). It happened to me that the phone wasn't booting, no matter how many times I restarted it. After cleaning SD it was all right... and the same happened to a friend of mine.
3) Do frequent backups (at least once a week). You never know.
Hope I was helpful.

can honestly the problem isnt with the script i had this issue tons of times aswell with multiple roms.
something on your sd ext is corrupt format your sd card with mini partition tool and recreate an ext 4 using that aswell will sort the issue out
n btw i was getting bootloops and andriod force close alot before i formated
now using Amarullz tho its alot more stable

So you're saying the problem is the ext partition that CWM creates? Ext 4 is better? But a lot of people make partitions off CWM and theirs still work fine. :/

What's your sdcard ? And class ?
Sent from Ursa's claws.
I already used S2E, DT A2D, Link2SD and never had any problem like this.
But I'm facing a different but at the same time similar problem. By "similar" I mean that the problem also persists even flashing the ROM again, or flashing other ROMs (CM based ones).
WelI, I was testing CM 7.2 SIII Mod v2 ROM and after a reboot the PlayStore app disappeared. I did the 3 wipes, flashed the ROM again and it wasn't there either. Then I installed the Stock 2.3.6 with Odin and again flashed that same ROM and nothing again. Installed Stock 2.3.6 with Odin again, downloaded the latest CM7.2 from cyanogenmod website, flashed it, and guess what ? No PlayStore app! Now in every CM based ROM that I flash, PlayStore is missing. In Stock based ones there is no problem, it's always there.

Change log: http://changelog.bbqdroid.org/#/t0lte/next
You might experience problem with twrp so it might be better to use CWM.
Also I believe it'll be a full wipe installing the ROM the first time. Good luck.
ps. if the cm dev wants to create a new thread for this ROM, please do so and I'll ask a moderator to close/delete this one.
here are the results of my trials earlier today. ROM is working nicely now. at least on the apps I've tried it on. Still using dalvik though.

some tips (all my testing was done using official CWM 6.0.4.1):
1. Definitely do not use TWRP unless there's an update to 2.6.3.7. (seems TWRP could work if one use the modified version. see message below. I haven't tested this myself.)
2. using CWM and exFAT is a hit and miss. A fresh install and the ROM can't see sdcard. The only time the sdcard was detected was after a nandroid restore.. Since all the files in my SDcard is < 4GB, I can use FAT32.
3. nandroid restore = no mobile connection for me. this was fixed by reflashing the even if it's the same nightly (example: say I made a nandroid backup of 17-Dec nightly ROM. due to having messed up stuff, I decided to restore my backup. as said above, this will result in no mobile connection. but if I reflashed the zip file for 17-Dec nightly, this will fix the problem)
4. the hangouts included in the gapps (See link above to CM wiki) resulted in FCs when trying to make a video call. this was fixed by uninstalling hangouts using titanium and reinstalling it via the playstore.
5. I believe all official recoveries need updating to support 4.4 properly.

original message is below. you can see the problems I've encountered during testing.
just flashed the nightly for t0lte using TWRP 2.6.3.7 and somehow it can't see my SIM. Will be flashing again using latest CWM (6.0.4.1 as of now).
initial observations:
1. NTFS work on SD cards
2. 2 launchers are present (launcher and launcher3)
3. looks better than Jb (it could be placebo effect because kitkat is new)
update: definitely use CWM at least for t0lte. ROM has recognized my SIM.
update2: been playing around with the ROM and when I tried to access my NTFS-formatted SDcard, it cannot see. I had no problems at all with my SDcard using TWRP. I can even browse the folders inside it using file manager. I also had a problem with the built-in hangouts and video chat. I'm getting FCs.
update3: restoring from CWM nandroid backup = no cellular/mobile connect. Can't even call anyone.
update4: update to update3. I did lose cellular/mobile connectivity (phone can't find sim) BUT it can recognize my NTFS-formatted sdcard now!
update5: removing hangouts via titanium and then reinstalling the playstore version, I can make a video call.
update6: restore from nandroid (which gives me a working NTFS-formatted sdcard) and then reflashed the ROM. I got mobile signal but no sdcard. I guess I can always format it at as FAT32 which I'm doing now.

Keep us posted. Would love to know how to sort out the data connection/sim issues before I flash.
Cheers.

gave up on making an NTFS-formatted sdcard work on a new flash. I'm formatting my sdcard now to FAT32. It'll probably be fixed down the road.
and I think flashing the ROM after restoring from nandroid backup will bring back mobile signal. At least that's my conclusion. But I do get a signal only if I use CWM.
Yea twrp 2.3.6.7 is buggy. Look for twrp 2.3.6.1, it's modified and will work with cellular signal. Keep us posted.
The modded twrp is linked on one of the last pages in the beanstalk thread iirc

updated 2nd post to give some tips on how to install ROM properly. seems to be working nicely now. That said, I don't have much app/games installed on my phone compared to my tablet (50-60 apps on the phone compared to 90+ on the tablet. mostly games).
a sample list of apps installed on phone are dashclock, lightflow, dynamicnotifications, various messaging. various Google apps and 1 game.
Installed with latest CWM and Data works great, no issues with Calls / LTE etc.
ROM seems really good so far, using Google's OK Google is fun but does tend to drain the battery faster, that said I will switch to a different kernel as I miss Viper so will most likely go with Devil, hopefully it helps with the battery.
I've never had an issue with CWM, I upgraded to the latest version using ROM Manager.
My tip for flashing is to always wipe perform a full wipe plus Cache, Davlik and System before flashing and Cache, Davlik after.
Miss some features / tweaks from other Roms but I know that CM is the best stock experience out there so no problems there.
IMO no issues running as a daily driver.
Proximity sensor not working. Is it just me or...?

CWM 6.0.3.1 Touch (I think!) doesn't work, got bad flash error 7 (I think!) every time.
ROM manager update to 6.0.4.1 to non-touch* worked like a charm.
(*because I'm both tight and lazy)

Definitely not working on a clean install, with a few apps installed.
According to a test app the light sensor is responding but the prox is not.
Camera app is buggy, useless in fact. 3rd party camera is fine temporary replacement.
Facebook edit post doesn't allow cursor placement, facebook app 4.4 problem I assume.
Is anyone able to successfully set the DPI to another value in build.prop? Mine always defaults to 320 after each reboot.
Update:
I seem to be able to edit/save build.prop changes fine in 12/07/13 nightly.
Had the same flash error 7 corruption had boot loop into recovery and had to use a nand backup to get back. Did a clean install, and the process went well. Only issues so far are my Microsd can't be seen. And can't manage to get the 'Ok google' stuff working. A few random crashes but overall working well so far.
So would love some help with the Microsd issue as this is quite important?

my NTFS-formatted sdcard can be seen when I use TWRP 2.6.3.7. not so with CWM 6.0.4.1.
I'm running the modified TWRP mentioned in page1 but my sdcard is still FAT32. I'll format my sdcard and see if it works.
I'm going back to CWM. just noticed all sorts of problems on my phone running the modified TWRP. :/ sucks!
No radio signal when flashing with TWRP 2.6.3.7. Flash again with CWM 6.0.4.1 radio is back. No problem with the external SD card (FAT32).

@mrjayviper Wasn't twrp 2.6.3.7 a bugged and accidental upload?
(At least people kept telling me a short while ago. )
Try the modded twrp 2.6.3.1 been linked a few days ago in the beanstalk tread

Updated to the latest nightly and running Agni kernel and all running well.
Battery life is great, loving this ROM so far!

I just tried the PA full gapps and no luck with that. thanks
