Nope, my home button long press is still working as expected. (Recent apps.)

Make sure to check settings >> cm settings >> input >> long press home settings.
[LG Optimus 2x] mind_challenge:
You misunderstood me. It works fine. It shows recent applications but GMaps is always first in the list of those recent applications.

I suspect your modified Gmap is ALWAYS active. Open your Gmap and see if any options are active.

The rom is perfect, the GPS picks up very fast, it is faster. Only one thing is encomodando me. Every time I start the phone it disables the "2G only". I wonder if you know how to do it to disable this option?
[LG Optimus 2x] rugglez:
Use toggle 2G/3G app from the forum to keep the phone in 2G mode even after reboot.

pDroid for anti-privacy or piracy?

Flashable zip for optional flashing is great idea. IMHO General user really dont need it. Users on special mission can flash it.

May be accessing and sharing of exact GPS co-ordinates can be blocked but still facebook tell it to others with one or the other way. Mark Zuckerberg, are you listening? lol

Yes privacy protection can be a good advantage of pDroid but hey, we have been using without it all these years. lolz.

By words "special mission" mentioned above, I mean a user may want to block pirated software/app from connecting to its website to authenticate registration process. This is one of the disadvantage of firewall. Still there are many pirated apps websites are floating on net these days.
[LG Optimus 2x] pastime1971:
i agree.

what is the other way ? network location ? (pdroid also blocks network location)

i have to disagree. the fact that we have been using our phone w/o it, and nothing has happened so far is not an enough argument, i must say.

iphone users didn't know that some of their private information was accessible until recently. until then, they were happy not knowing about it.
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
I have to disagree with optional flashable patcher if it is possible to be included in source. If it isn't in source then patching of cuz is great.

Patcher doesn't always guarantee 100% safe patching.
[LG Optimus 2x] babaandnana:
I really love this rom. I just hope somebody would fix the francarl or kostja cam mod so that autofocus would work for video. :D
[LG Optimus 2x] :
@temasek: any particular reason for bundling the kernel built by you rather than rmcc in your kangs?
[LG Optimus 2x] Remington78:
Can you please post how to get the stock camera working on this? Thanks alot for this great rom.
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
I didn't bundle mine.

U should know there are several methods of kernel building. One is repo sync with the cm kernel git info in local_manifest.xml. That was what I did as sometimes I just wanna sync and build the cm kernel only. As such the kernel info in about phone shows my nick which is my linux. I have never purposely change any kernel info. Thar is why in about phone shows root@temasek instead of maybe temasek@date...example.

My own kernel git is on another hdd which I separate from my kang build hdd. For this I also didn't bother to add my own info.
[LG Optimus 2x] pastime1971:
I agree about patching. Smali patching is not always reliable. I saw this in my ICS port of pdroid. I couldn't make a smali patcher.

Smali patcher is useful if you are dealing with several compiled ROMs, which svyat needs.to deal with. For a kanger like us, source patch is much better. That is why I patched svyat's patch so that ROM can be normally compiled. (Both CM7 & CM9)

However,

@temasek, I think he meant separate kang zips for cm7 and cm7+pdroid.

@cmahendra, if you never change PDroid app setting, or never install PDroid app, PDroid framework won't interfere with you. (If you have the PDroid app, and install a new app, PDroid will alert you, but you can disable that.)

I dont know much about it, but doesnt autofocus in camcorder require hardware support ?

Is it just software / driver issue ?
[LG Optimus 2x] parthabhatta:
I have been using this ROM since long. Ocassionally I flash some others and then again comeback to this for its sheer stability and optimum power consumption (coupled with vadonka kernel).

One more thing would make it complete atleast for we Indian users. This ROM doesn't support complex rendering of Indic fonts. I have replaced DroidSansFallBack.ttf with a font that to some extent makes Indian fonts readable but even then its not 100% perfect. However stock ROM perfectly supports complex rendering of Indian fonts. Indian/ Bangladeshi users will understand better what I mean by full support of Indic fonts. Any suggestions as to how to get full support of Indian fonts in this ROM is welcome.

Anyway, this is in no way to derogate the huge support of temasek, vadonka , pasttime, cm9 team and all others who all are involved in giving us this great ROM. In fact thanks to all of them for this great ROM, Kernel etc.

One more thing which is not that important - Is there any way I can make the status bar transparent? I tried quite a few of them floating here and there but none of them are compatible with this ROM.

THANKS again to all.
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
I know what he meant and that's my view, I don't agree. :)
[LG Optimus 2x] pastime1971:
i used to build two versions, w/ and w/o pdroid, as well. but i stopped doing that a long time ago. my kang is now always w/ pdroid.
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
Agree. Even if there is an overhead, it is negligible.

Also I'm building for 3 devices and that would mean 6 KANGs per build update. So its either in source building or no support at all from me. I believe it is reasonable.
[LG Optimus 2x] AlexanderKgr:
just some question for the new stuff..any recommendations for the pdroid?what to block and what not?i blocked everything at the facebook app and i had a terrible battery drain.any documentation for the app?
[LG Optimus 2x] pastime1971:
check out svyat's thread at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1357056 and post your question over there.

i don't see why blocking would lead to a huge battery consumption, but i believe you. i guess you can go to spare parts or something and check app specific battery usage ?

edit: i think the rule of thumb is that you block everything that doesn't interfere the app's functionality. (by trial and error)
[LG Optimus 2x] babaandnana:
@pastime1971

For stock CM7 camera, autofocus works for taking still and moving pictures but the autofocus is lost for camcorder in both kostja and francarl mod.

It was working before (january kangs) but in the later kangs (maybe in the 60's), it just stopped autofocusing on video.

I always flash those 2 camera mods every other kang release hoping that it will work but always end up flashing the stock CM7 cam back due to the lack of autofocus function.

Can you figure out whats wrong? (wishfully thinking)
[LG Optimus 2x] pastime1971:
hmm. was there a commit related to libcamera during that period ? january is not too long ago, and i don't recall anything.

but if autofocus worked in camera and camcorder modes in those mods before, and it still works in camera mode, why wouldn't it work in camcorder ? if anything got broken, shouldn't it work for neither ?

sorry, i've never used LG camera, so i wouldn't know what to expect. besides, i am on CM9 these days.
[LG Optimus 2x] zhehao:
Hi guys the CM7 default email app dont support HTML emails? like I have emails with pictures and tables but it doesn't show on the email app. anyone have work around for this? I love the support for MS exchange compared to other email applications. its a pity!

also, how do you hide the alarm icon in the status bar?

and what did the update to the flashlight in lockscreen do?

I don't think this is hot enough for you to worry. These are the normal idle/low load temperatures for CPU's. As far as I know when under stress they're normal temperatures get to around 70º and they shut down at around 90º so you still have a good margin.

Also, 15 hours on continuous use seems like an excelent battery life if you ask me. Screen and 3G are major power drain sources so having that continuously on will take care of your battery in no time :)
[LG Optimus 2x] mrgian:
Its 12 hours only.. :D Oh great, i dont use 3G (never tried though). Im goin' to test again my battery, gonna do a minimal use of it, let's see how long will it lasts. Maybe a day or 2? :cool:
