Love it love it. This rom is awesome didn't do the alpha but the beta is sweat. Was going to wait to see if there was any problems with the beta but couldn't wait any longer. I am sure if there is any problems dragonzkiller will fix them.

So just a double check before I try to do this, after flashing cm7 do I need to install the bsr?
[Motorola Droid X2] KurioHonoo:
Maybe someone will come up with a working HDMI for this, I'm really bummed it doesn't work, but otherwise I'm so glad to finally have cm7
[Motorola Droid X2] Stuckinabox:
I should probably point out that I got superuser 3.0.7 from http://goo-inside.me/superuser/ (extracted the apk from a flashable zip) and it appears to updating the binary correctly. I cannot get the preinstalled 3.0.4 or market 3.0.7 to work.
[Motorola Droid X2] Steve125:
If you accidentally installed the new su, you can go to settings and manage applications and just uninstall the update. Binary should update then.

I keep getting an error when trying to flash. I am on 2.3.4, follow all directions.

I have tried different versions of CM7 downloaded so its not a bad file. Whats wrong??
[Motorola Droid X2] lordforex:
When in doubt, start again from the beginning via the OP's current instructions and see if it works. If you start from rooted SBF, it should go smoothly since no one else is seeing that error yet.

Think I'm going to try when I get off work. Has anyone tried the hdmi fix that we had to use with eclipse 1.3. Not a dev or anything and sure there is more to it like dependencies on other blur files but hey just a shot in the dark.

Yes you need to install the new bsr. Run the new apk from the sd card. Do not go into the old bsr while running cm7.

Is script asserts toggled off?
[Motorola Droid X2] Xb0i:
is there a way to increase the amount of touch points up to 5? has anyone tried the current touch mod?
[Motorola Droid X2] iBolski:
Per Dragonzkiller's post at the beginning, there is no HDMI native code in CM7:

So, my answer would be no. If there are dependencies on blur files, then definitely not since CM7 has removed blur. Eclipse, I do believe, still has some blur files there, hence that is why you can use some blur apps instead of the AOSP equivalent.

But, I could be wrong.
[Motorola Droid X2] gaad0701:
Hey Ninja,

I don't mean to keep pestering about flashing over alpha, but where in the OP does it say, if you were on Alpha, SBF? I know you have been doing this a long time, I understand you know more about this than me. I am not trying to stir up trouble, I just want to point out that if we follow the OP to a T we wouldn't SBF, since we are "already there," stated in the OP, if you are on 2.3.4 already it says in the OP that it is not needed to SBF to stock.

I am just wondering because I flashed over alpha and did the big 3, and I am wondering if people coming from other ROMs on 2.3.4 should be careful and be ready to report bugs that others wouldn't experience from the unique set of circumstances that they are coming from.

Sorry if that got a little long winded, and thanks for all of the input!

[Motorola Droid X2] Romans8vs1:
I can't seem to add any accounts (Facebook, Yahoo, etc) and my battery is still draining fast like it did in the alpha release.

That being said, this rom is the best I've used so far. Being able to customize it without flashing is a great feature.
[Motorola Droid X2] Travisdroidx2:
Wow that's all I can say. Yes I miss my HDMI but know I know what all the hype was about. Themes for cm7 are sick. Dragonzkiller you are the man and everyone that helped bless you!! You guys rock. Blur what Blur :)
[Motorola Droid X2] bigreds747:
I did the same, and running like a charm. You should be fine
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
Is anyone else still not being able to see the contents of the ext. SD card? In my storage settings, it shows its mounted and shows that there is space being taken up on it. I know there is stuff on it. But if I go into a file manager, I can't see anything on it.
[Motorola Droid X2] bigreds747:
It's not labeled under sd-ext. Its emmc for external SD.
[Motorola Droid X2] Romans8vs1:
External SD is now just SD and internal is emmc. At least that is how mine is.

Anyone having problems with rom toolbox?
[Motorola Droid X2] drapp:
Yeah. Says right in the instructions not to use it... doesn't work yet
[Motorola Droid X2] Superm@π:


Did you sbf or flash over alpha?
[Motorola Droid X2] Romans8vs1:
I see where it says to not use rom manager, does that mean we should not use rom toolbox either?

I sbf'd back to 2.3.4
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
ROM Manager and ROM Toolbox never really worked for the Droid X2. Some features will work but you have to be real careful on knowing which ones work and which ones will throw your phone into a bootloop.

Thanks guys, I see my stuff under emmc now. Thats going to be a little getting used to.
[Motorola Droid X2] Romans8vs1:
I used it as a file explorer and font changer. I never had a problem before. I am using Root Explorer now, so it's really no big deal. Thank you for your input.
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
If you used it just for that, you'll probably be fine. But managing your ROM as in backing up or recovering, you probably wont get that far.
[Motorola Droid X2] 03civicdx:
He says not to use rom manager not rom tool box. Some of the options in rom tool box do work with the x2 I have used it many times to change font, boot animation, and some status bar icons.
[Motorola Droid X2] motcher41:
No I have seen that issue. I was able to activate mine with *22899 it took several times. It will not say your phone has been activated it will just end and the screen will indicate if it was programmed successfully or not. I also had to rive to an area away from my home tower but I may not have been patient enough

Loving it. Android OS is humming at a nice and low 2% rather then alphas 48-50%
[Motorola Droid X2] CarlosBattousai:
A few little bugs

1. The Sync doesn't always work.

2. I sometimes get the triangle that tell's me I need to active my phone AFTER I've already activated it.

3. If I go in to the music app to set a few ring tones it won't show up anywhere.

A few restarts fixes one or all of these, but something randomly stop working and I have to keep resetting till I get lucky XD
[Motorola Droid X2] onefix:
With AMOLED based screens, some of the calibrated effects can save battery life. The PenTile display of the X2 may see some benefit. Aside from that, some people prefer (for instance) a red display at night.
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
I havent ran into any problems with this yet, but I think I may have accidentally updated the Super User app before updating the SU Binaries. If so, how do I go about updating the binaries after I updated the app?
[Motorola Droid X2] iBolski:
I did the same. I first went in, did a clear data/factory reset and clear cache (regular and dalvik) and then flashed over the Alpha.

No problems here. Since the kernel is the same (2.3.4), flashing will take take care of the rest from what I understand. We just can't flash a new kernel since it's locked. Only way to change the kernel is to unlock it (fat chance) or applying an OTA update (like the 2.3.5 updates) from Verizon. Hence, that is why if you were on 2.3.4 you MUST SBF back to 2.3.4 since the kernel is different.
[Motorola Droid X2] Tweek900:
Wait I'm a little lost now. I throw on the new cm7 then run the apk for the bsr that's linked in the post?

CM7 rom is booting up in 34 seconds this think is sweat I never charge the phone just change and charge the battery. So a fast boot is awesome.

Does any body know what the battery % is reporting in? I want the change the icon with rom tool box to see a number on it.

Anyone have any luck setting the security lock to delay say 5 sec after the slide lock is on. Tried many combos of the delays in cyanogen settings but no luck. Security lock engadges as soon as slider does every time

[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
My delay worked. I went into cyanogenmod settings and under lockscreen/delay and timeout, I changed both the screen timeout delay and the screen turned off delay to 5 seconds and it didnt lock if I turned the screen off and on real fast. But it did if I left it for 5 seconds.
[Motorola Droid X2] SuBDivisions:
Takin the plunge, installying CM7 now :D..

Question, i never wiped out the "internal" portion of my sd card over many roms.updates etc.. is it ok to clear that out post install? or Pre install? Or....
[Motorola Droid X2] motcher41:
Does the slide lock engage at say 1 sec and security lock at say 5 sec
[Motorola Droid X2] antEris:
Not sure about default, but you can get it to show battery percentage in "settings- cyanogenmod settings- interface- status bar tweeks- battery status style" hope this helps :)
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
Are you talking about your internal SD card where all your app data and stuff is stored? The ROM doesnt touch that. You can wipe that whenever you want, but dont have to. If you are talking about doing factory reset and wiping cache, then yes, YOU HAVE TO DO THAT BEFORE FLASHING CM7.
[Motorola Droid X2] motcher41:
it reports in 1% increments
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
If I understand what you are saying, you are wanting to have the sliders appear after a certain delay time without the lock. And then after an additional amount of time, the lock will kick in. I cant get that to happen for me either. It seems like when the sliders are present, so is the lock.
[Motorola Droid X2] Tomsgt:
Thanks that will work. first time running CM7 haven't learned all the ins and outs yet. Battery in 1 % Increments sweat.
[Motorola Droid X2] SuBDivisions:
Yea i was talking about the 4 gig portion of my 16 gig SD Card, i figured i would wipe it cause there are old picture directories and things on there that arent needed and i like starting off fresh and clean... The 12 gig portion is where i have the apk's and such for the cm install and nandroid backups etc..

Does this have data roaming option. Some roms I have used don't and can't get data where I work.

Sent from X2 Eclipsed using xda app
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
Yeah, you will be fine to wipe that after flashing CM7. the ROM wont touch it and it wont hurt anything to keep it on there. I recently wiped my card too. I transferred everything to my computer and wiped the internal SD card and let Android build the files it needed. It was getting to cluttered from all the random apps I installed over the months. Just know that you will lose saved game data and stuff like that. i used Titanium Backup to restore the data to the apps I needed.

Is there a way to kill apps from starting on boot built into CM7?

[Motorola Droid X2] iBolski:
It's official - this ROM rocks.

Just played 5 minutes of Fruit Ninja THD (optimized for Tegra devices). Battery was at 100%. After playing for five minutes, exited out and I was still at 100%. Before, under the alpha, I would be down to 90%.

Oh, and as stated, Fruit Ninja runs better than it ever has and I haven't used one solitary tweak except to boost my SD cache to 2048.

This to me just PROVES how much BLUR affects the performance of this phone.

Excellent work! I have officially converted over to CM7.
[Motorola Droid X2] murtezahu:
Kernal

soooo this may seem like a silly question, but...

is 7.2 running the stock moto/blur kernal or is it running a cyanogenmod kernal?
[Motorola Droid X2] Srambo217:
ROM is fantastic! Couple odd things though;

Can anyone else browse the contents of their internal SD with Root Explorer or File Manager? My SD-card is my external card but whenever I enter SD-card ext. nothing is shown.

Also is anyone having trouble applying any widgets? I have downloaded/installed Bob Clock 3D and Google Music (I even froze the stock Music app)multiple times and neither appear in the widget selection section.
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
I just asked this question too. Apparently the Ext. SD Card is under emmc now.

And I have no problems adding widgets

---------- Post added at 09:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:37 AM ----------

I dont think we can change the kernel because of the locked bootloader. So I believe its the same kernel. Cyanogenmod just handles it better.
[Motorola Droid X2] 03civicdx:
Rom tool box didn't work to change the battery icon for me when I was running eclipse so it might now work. You can change it by changing the theme in theme chooser though.

Otherwise the DX2 shows battery in 1% increments.

[Motorola Droid X2] iBolski:
Actually, your external SD card is mounted to /sdcard and the internal SD card is mounted to /emmc. At least, that's how mine is because that's how I had it under the Alpha CM7 when I manually mounted my external SD card. When the beta came out, I didn't SBF to 2.3.4. I just factory reset/data wiped my CM7 alpha and flashed the beta over it. So, it might be a carry over from how I had the alpha set up. Not sure.

But, in any case, the way it's set up is one card is mounted to /sdcard and the other to /emmc. /sdcard-ext isn't used in CM7.
[Motorola Droid X2] motcher41:
That's the problem I'm noticing

Sent from my Cyanocrack using Xparent Blue Tapatalk
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
Yes, thats right. My SD Card is actually the External and the external (which is really the Internal) is renamed to emmc. A bit confusing. lol. I did the same as you and flashed over the Alpha. Is the Beta version like that as well where the SD card was flip flopped to have the 8GB storage? Or was that due to our file manipulation in the Alpha?
[Motorola Droid X2] iBolski:
Just a quick update. I've been unplugged from charging for an hour. Played about 20 minutes of Fruit Ninja total and I'm at 95%

Normally, I'd be below 80% at this point. I'd say the battery issue and the 100% cpu/init problem is definitely fixed.

Nice work, Dragonzkiller!
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
I second that. The battery life is probably better now than it ever has been on this phone.
[Motorola Droid X2] maggard5:
Sdcard flip flop is in beta.
[Motorola Droid X2] iBolski:
That's what I figured, but I wasn't completely sure since I didn't SBF back to 2.3.4 and just flashed over the Alpha instead. Wanted to make sure it wasn't a holdover from how I had the Alpha set up.
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
So its official. lol. For everyone who is wondering where their stuff is saved in a file explorer:

8GB SD Card = sdcard

4GB SD Card = emmc
[Motorola Droid X2] skwoodwiva:
Note

I needed to turn proximity to unchecked in phone settings to avoid the black screen sticking during a call. I know vz phone advanced options has it enabled by default but its not available in the beta so I am fine now. I think if you enable it , it is running twice.

Edit

Oh yea

Question, which home launcher is everyone using? I put in home switcher, and im bouncing back and fourth between adw and launcher ex.. both seem to be smooth but i cant decide on one or the other... also want to make sure adw isnt tied in in someway that its bad if i run another one..
[Motorola Droid X2] iBolski:
I didn't realize it until after running CM7 alpha, but BLUR sucks, literally. It sucks the life out of the phone, causes it to be sluggish and having to do all sorts of memory tweaks that help in most cases, but sometimes causes problems later on down the line.

With no more blur, the phone's resources are freed up and it performs the way it SHOULD have been able to - without BLUR sucking up the resources.

Verizon REALLY needs to give us an option - blur or blurless. Heck, just unlock the bootloader and all will be forgiven! It's a shame they have to force our hand and have people like Dragonzkiller have to come in and fix their mistake.
[Motorola Droid X2] jsgraphicart:
Im using ADW EX. Mainly because I bought it. I might try and see if its possible to replace the ADW launcher included with this rom with the EX version as a system app. But then again, I dont want to mess anything up. lol

I myself am running Go Launcher EX. But, in the end, whatever works with each person is the best in my opinion!

[Motorola Droid X2] Android.Ninja:
Hey no problem at all. :) If you are on stock 2.3.4 & rooted you should be ok. The OP' s instructions say exactly what steps should be taken to flash to CM7.

SBF'ing doesn't take very long at all and ensures a smooth and promising install providing elegant results as others have already indicated. Coming from another rom based off 2.3.4 doesn't ensure a clean install. The big 3 while effective doesn't replace any system files that may have been modified from another different or prior rom. :)

To make sure and def

Always SBF.

What happens when you try and add accounts. I'll see If I can help you figure out what's causing the problem.

After install of the Beta, I'm still @ 90% and holding strong. Battery life is exceptional. Not sure why yours is draining fast. It sounds like a runnaway process or something.

Let me know if I can help.
[Motorola Droid X2] SuBDivisions:
I agree, i know its mostly personal preference, i just wanted to make sure (coming from the former moto blur world) that like the original adw that comes with cm7 isnt running "behind" the EX, thus eating up resources etc...

So far tho, I am seeing definite snappy responsiveness of the cm7 world.. its very impressive and feels honestly "free" of the hold of blur.. Im definatley impressed (I was very impressed with eclipse too, i think they are both unbelieveable jobs done by some unbelieveable people). This rom i believe its the first time i have been able to see the true power of NVidia's CPU/GPU combo.

I love this rom but one problem I encountered is Touch seems to not be opening does anyone else use it?

Edit: I know it's not a problem with Touch I just signed in on my OG Droid with MIUI over the WIFI but on the CM7 X2 it says fetching account information then Error Whoops! Something went wrong. :(

Ok SORRY it was a problem with Touchs servers I guess all is well and loving CM7
[Motorola Droid X2] iBolski:
I remember seeing that one, but I wasn't willing to spend $15 for a launcher.

Maybe if it came down in price I might, but the features just don't seem to be worth that much.

Still, it looks cool!
[Motorola Droid X2] Android.Ninja:
Yep I know what you mean about the price. :)

I finally broke down and purchased it too whe it was $15.00, but when I compared the overall performance of it to just running CM7 on the first Droid X, I ended up just stickuing with the CM7. The shell features a nice GUI but I really like the resourcefulness of the CM7 by itself. :D

If i'm not mistake I thought I saw the SPB shell price drop for $10.00 but that may have been just for the holidays. :)
