Couple of questions:

-Anyway to make the camera change to save on sd card? Can't see any clear option

-With the Samsung camera, you can easily tap to focus and autofocus, you can't do that with this once can you? I see a 'touch' option, but is this the same?

-The default voice record and calculator are awfully bland. The phone and contacts are ok. But is there anyway to have the default apps from samsung ones that I listed just now?

-And I notice there isn't any quick toggle for screen rotation - why? The samsung quick toggles are slightly better.

And some general ones:

-Can I flash a theme like I would have done to a samsung rom?

Thank you.

New users....PLEASE search this thread and xda in general as well as Google with your questions before posting them here.

Most recently posted queries have been answered literally hundreds of times already and you will have very little trouble finding opinions, advice and answers about most CM7 features. Also, use the guide, wiki and faq linked in my sig. Trust me, not only will you learn alot but you will save your own time and our patience by being proactive.

Remember, CM7.1 claims to be stable...I can't say the same for most regulars in this forum.

@habylab and other n00bs to CM7.

As a former CM7 n00b myself, here is some really useful advice.

There are over 9000 people on this thread everyday. I check it 10 times a day a least but I rarely ever post. I don't have to because, instead of just firing off the first question that pops into my head, I read first.

I don't even really post advice or troubleshooting help (unless it is a Canadian related issue) because @sikydude, @bk201doesntexist and @Rschenck have their sgs' ported over to their prefrontal cortex'. The devs even make special guest appearances from time to time (big ups to my man @pawtip!).

I admit searching is difficult at times if you don't know the right questions to ask but if you think about it, this thread contains the entire history of our galaxysmtd ROM. Every question has been asked and if possible, answered.

The moral of the story? A good n00b is an invisible n00b. Be invisible. Like a ninja... With no thumbs.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] 22vlaja:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mr. phillip:

Because you flash it from recovery, and install the apps as normal from the market.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] 22vlaja:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] mr. phillip:
Man, the next changelog is huge... again... in three days, many things were added... cool... but this way i have to flash it everyday...:)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
My best advice for you right now is to spend a healthy chunk of time educating yourself about the sgs and how its software works, as well as android in general.

Go to the general and q&a threads and read tutorials and guides, work out how things work and why, THEN start flashing things.

I would also suggest looking at some well-regarded Samsung roms first. Find the threads in the Dev thread with most views and read the first posts. Several of those roms are very 'plug and play" for new users. CM7 is not.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
Remember that at this point, 99 percent of what you are seeing in the changelog is either totally transparent to the average user or not relevant to the sgs1. Also many changes require multiple commits spread over several nightlies.

To be honest, unless you are the kind who likes to test the very latest or have a shiny fetish, I would strongly recommend AGAINST flashing every nightly. For example I am still running 7.1 Stable and likely won't flash a nightly until the last commit for the Samsung Service Mode goes live and people say it is working. Until then, I will just let my battery calibrate quietly.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] 22vlaja:
thx 4 answer, but is it so hard to explain how to enable market? i have do everything from Q&A how to instal google apps, but does not work ,
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
When you have to ask how to fix permissions, which is one of the basic troubleshooting steps in android, it is clear you simply don't know what you are doing.

People have given you very straightforward solutions and you respond with cryptic, confusing descriptions and more questions. I'm sorry, but no one can do this for you, you need to do the reading and learning for yourself.

People here have been amazingly kind to you so far....that wont last much longer unless you do something to help yourself.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] FadeFx:
no, it is so easy that it was explained a thousend times already. you see why we do not want to end in a loop of answering the same questions over and over again here? if you followed the exact steps to install gapps and the advices already given, and you stll have no market, id suggest to flach a stock rom with odin and start all over again.

Flashed Nightly 156: Same Boot Loop

Restored Nandroid: Problems with connecting to Google Services. Boot loop after reflashing gapps-gb-20110828-signed

Wiped data and reflash Nightly 156: Problem solved.

Until the next morning when the battery was dead, the phone didnt wake on plugging in power (NOT the Sleep of Death as I know). Had to pull the battery. Then it booted fine.

One problem left: The phone seems to be unable to connect to any Google services (Wifi/3G logos are white), I am unable to get into Google+ and Google Market (says No connection on opening) and the Time and Date has reset itself to 1st Jan 2005... what the hell? :(

Any one else had this problem? Dont seem to recall this from all my lurking on this forum.

May have to Flash back to stock and reflash CM7 as a last resort?

***EDIT*** : Manually setting Date and Time seems to have fixed the Google services issue!!!!! Anyone know why the Network provided values may fail randomly?

As has been discussed a great deal, just not recently, the CM7 stock dialer is a bit lacking in features. Almost all of us use a third party replacement, like GO Dialer or RocketDial.

And just for the record, I searched for Dialer in this thread and just on the first page of results I found a good half dozen posts discussing needing an alternative dialer for added features, such as http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=17151255&highlight=dialer#post17151255.

what about camcorder ? is it better compare to CM7 ?

generally whats the benefit to go to MIUI and whats to stay on CM7 ? ( battery draining & ... )

please give me a good comparative ... link or something .

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] FadeFx:
That is not the only reason

They do modifications to cm7 which minuit is based on, but don't provide source code so cm7 can not benefit from their development.

However, i don't think it is anything better, as the devs seem to be not as smart as they claim to be.

----------------------------------------

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lohho:
Basically because MIUI is based on CM7. Theoretically there is nothing wrong with it BUT MIUI don't share the code "improvements" with the community.

So it's some sort of one way which i personaly do not like.

On the other hand CM7 is is WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get). All bugs and missing fatures re known. MIUI often claims to solve those bugs (ofc without sharing how they did it) but in fact they didn't a lot of times.

One good examle is the galnet MIUI 720p video "fix" which has no practical effect, expect luring people from CM7 to MIUI.

It's just my personal opinion, feel free to get your own.

got some weird behaviour on #156.

when i use the notification widget to put my phone into silence mode nothing happens.

usually i have my phone on "sound+vibration".

when i hit the widget it turns "sound only", which is just as expected.

but when i hit the widget again it stays on "sound only".

the expected behaviour would be that the phone goes into to "vibration only".

anybody else having the same issue?

Hi, i'm trying CM7 since last night (stable) and i'm loving it, but GPS doesn't seem to work well. Can't get fix with GPS (no network), and with network fix enabled i can get gps fix sometimes, but way too far away from what i get with my previous ROM, Simplicity, where i got network gps fix with 150m of error in lots of places, with CM7, when i can get a fix, it's with 4 or 5KM error.

Any way i can get GPS working like on a "normal" SGS ROM? This is essencial to me, if i can't get it to work properly i'll go back.

OK, we need to get something clear again...this is a Forum, not a Help Desk. No one here is getting paid for anything they are doing, or for any amount of time or effort expended.

I am sure all the regulars here would agree with me when I say I am more than happy to try to help people who have exhausted all other possibilities and can't figure out how to do something or how to fix a problem. In addition I really enjoy discussing strange CM7 behavior with other people who are interested in working with the community to expand their own and our collective knowledge. I am even pleased to help a total newbie who is working to educate themselves and need some advice or guidance as to where to look for info or how to proceed. I think most people who post here day in and day out feel the same.

I DO get a little offensive, patronizing, and plain unhelpful with people who should obviously know better but assume that they have no need to think or research or experiment for themselves when they can simply throw a question out on the forum. I get a little grumpy over the arrogant attitude that says "why should I spend my own time finding a solution when I can have some helpful sucker spend THEIR time serving me". I KNOW I am not alone in these feelings, either.

Lets look at some recent examples of regrettable behavior, shall we?

Then if you "knew that one" why didn't you bother to check it before assuming you could just ask and spare yourself the hassle? Why didn't you spare a moment and think before posting another in a long line of basic and infantile questions?

Without the forum, where exactly do you think you would be able to search? Yes, I knew you assumed that we will jump to serve your whim without you making even a minimal effort, and therefore got stroppy when someone showed you otherwise. At least you could make your whiney complaints a little bit logical.

Is a minimal amount of effort and thought before posting really too much to ask from some people?

Can encoding resolution be changed for videos?

Hi guys. I've been trying to change the settings in the media profiles file; I thought that I don't really need 720p, so I tried to set 1024 x 576 as my high resolution, in order to get a decent enough 16:9 video with no frame skipping (as it would involve less bitrate and less overhead overall) yet decent enough to be viewed or even burnt to dvd.

Alas, the videos come out stretched, with odd aspect ratios. Reeconding would fix that, but that's an extra step I'd like to skip. I was wondering whether I'm doing something wrong (I'm just changing the resolution and the bitrate), or the camera is hard-locked to certain resolutions and aspect ratios. I've asked in another forum, and was told that resolutions are stored in many different places, most importantly in the encoder itself, and that all those places should be changed.

Is something like this feasible? Can it be implemented? Because for me it would be a good compromise until 720p is achievable (if ever).
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ruimoura:
I'm not complaining, at all. I asked for some helpwith the GPS issue and all i got was "use search". If all you have to do is use search, this wouldn't be a forum.

And btw, why should i be asking for some help or tips before searching first? If i asked that, it was because i didn't know what to do with gps problem, even after reading on cyanogen forum.

So please, if you (not really talking to you, but to everyone) want to help, just help, don't assume others don't use search before asking questions, it just looks like you are calling others stupid.
