Isn't linux stuff suppose to be stable when you think most of the stuff is working, and it doesn't crash? :p

So, pick a nightly number by rolling ten sided dice twice, first roll for the 10's and second roll for the 1's.

Flash that, and if most of the stuff is working in an acceptable manner, it is your stable. :D

My phone doesn't overheat anymore and I don't get random reboots. I'm on the latest nightly.

The phone is really stable. I use CM7 as my daily.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aerobahn:
Agreed. This is the main reason why I don't use CM7 as my daily. I don't want to be confined to use Cyanogens lackluster music player and because of the way they handle mounting SDcards, I can't use any other music player reliably.

Why they chose to have it mounted to /mnt/emmc is beyond me. I wish there was a way to set the mount point of the external sd card to "/sdcard/external_sd" so 3rd party apps could read & write to it.

Hello,

could any non-aggressive person enlighten me about the progress of CM7? I haven't had time to follow it closely, and last time I checked there were some random overheating issues while charging, and other stability problems. How does it look at the current state? Honestly I've never used CM before, being on my first android phone, but I'm eagerly waiting to try it. The only thing stopping me is that I don't really have the time to experiment with flashing lots of roms, and I need a day-to -day device that is somewhat stable, and won't let me down in certain situations.

The question would be: is CM7 ripe enough on the SGS2 to offer me this, or should I wait more?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tangiers:
Wait. It's not ready yet.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrysilis:
I've been using since the first nightly and the only problem I have ever had was using the CRT on animation which caused issues waking up which meant phone calls were difficult. I searched for the answer to that question, found it and once I disabled the animation had no further issues. Apart from that I have never had any operational issues with the ROM. Bear in mind it is still in active development and you should be fine :)

On the other hand if missing a call is going to cost you money I wouldn't go with a non stable ROM just in general. Oh and there are still some features not implemented which may make it a no go for you.

The agressive response is to people who do not search, provide feedback without sufficient info to debug or who simply can not be bothered attempting to find the answer to their own questions. If that is you then I would not suggest using a developmental ROM which is still in it's early stages.

Cheers :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LiFE1688:
We are all aggressive to show off that we have higher intellect but small penises. We need to compensate somewhere.

So far, I have been using CM7 since day one, I have yet to see any battery overheating issues. I charge the phone, and play Bug Village at the same time, and still no over heating. As for stability, I have games that freeze or force close, however that is not isolated to just CM7, in stock roms, they freeze or force close as well.

Although CM7 is nightly, flashing it every night is more an addiction than real need. CM7 #33 is stable enough for regular use. There are issues, such as BT Device pairing and stuff.

I recommend using ROM Manager to check on the updates once in a while when you are bored. There is no real need to install the updates, just to see how far off you are. However, you might need to purchase ROM Manager Premium to download nightlies, experimental and stable are free functions.

Now or later isn't going to be much of a difference. As stated, CM7 won't be increasing more features unless, they open more hardware stuff. In terms of ROM functions, it is mostly there. Hardware functions, not all there.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheSaw:
Thanks for both of the answers. No, I am not the kind who doesn't search or get involved in development in general. I am a developer, so I enjoy this. The concerns that I had/have are not related to missing an important call, but more like avoiding having a device that is more unpleasant to use than with a stock rom.

Well then, I will give it a try, and see how it goes :)

I'm off to read the instructions on how to install. Hope I won't need to get back here to ask questions about the process :P

Installed. Working fine for now ;)

Just a few questions sir:

Using the nightly build 31 in the philippines. The codeworkx section in ROM Manager has a lot of stuff. What do you recommend i use/download? Is that compatible with the nightly builds? How do I go about installing it using just my phone/ROM Manager? Or do I need to use a Windows PC? If i install it what are the benefits? Thank you sir I am just new and am not familiar with the terms and process. Appreciate your help.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LiFE1688:
You don't need a PC to use ROM Manager, it is just the phone and rom manager.

Using rom manager download, you pretty much just need CM7 + Google Applications.

What stuff are you trying to use? MODEM? Superuser?

yes sir. I am not sure what the modem does in case I download it. please elaborate on what the effect would be. also, what is the best one to use?

The reason you haven't received a response is because your question is too general. You would have to provide a lot more details of what email client you are using, what type of email account you have and what you mean by saying that your email isn't working.

Further, it may well not be a CM rom problem but a problem with your email app.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bacardiandwatermelon:
Just so you know mine works and I've never had an issue with exchange. The best bet is probably doing a wipe and factory reset. Keeping in mind its going to wipe all your settings make sure your contacts are synced to your google account or something (found that out the hard way). But as this is a nightly rom i expect your not worried about wiping anyways. Also cm7 doesn't play too nicely with titanium backup restores, just incase your using that to restore your settings... There is a sgs2 forum on cm, and the guys on there seem quite keen to help the little guy out with problems they are having. p.s. the sgs2 is my first android device and i am by no means an expert.
