Can confirm... Kali got gingerbread running with nearly all hardware. I compiled and tested myself. But it's pure stock gingerbread without any cm extras yet.

Since kalis changes seam to be merged in cm gingerbread port,i hope to get that branch compiled tomorrow.

Right now I use oxygen rc1 which got everything working...

[Desire Android Development] najar360:
it is good thing to hear.
[Desire Android Development] Roscopcoletrain:
Excellent news :)
[Desire Android Development] mad-murdock:
Using it right now.. too lazy to restore the well working oxygen with all my apps right now

Kali, defer and some others were really patient with me. Big thanks

[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
Do want. :eek:
[Desire Android Development] mad-murdock:
I can upload my build later if you want me to. Nearly everything is running hardware wise, but except boot animation and adw it's not much modded yet.

Swyped with HTC Desire. Excuse typos.
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
I would love to give it a shot, as I'd like to see how far along CyanogenMod is, and how well it's running in these earliest stages. :)

Thanks in advance!

I would like to try it as well, thanks.

I wouldn't mind giving it a go too.

What's the deal with amon ra and usb bricking at the moment?

Sent from my Amiga 500 using Workbench
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
I have no idea tbh. Maybe I just forgot to flash the nightly again before restoring my Nandroid backup? Would that cause problems? Usually I flash the base ROM before restoring the corresponding backup...
[Desire Android Development] marinierb:
I format BOOT, SYSTEM, DATA and CACHE before restoring a backup.
[Desire Android Development] fenderf4i:
Is USB bricking only a risk with Amonra, or might it happen with Clockwork also?
[Desire Android Development] mad-murdock:
I did perhaps slightly more than 10 restores and usb brick happens once. I cannot reproduce it or figure out what's the problem, so amonra cannot, too.

Still usb in brick is no big deal. 2 minutes if you already got your misc position fix, perhaps 15 minutes first time for someone not afraid of nightlies (:

Does the GPS and network location work properly ? :]
[Desire Android Development] StuMcBill:
Can I backup and re-flash my misc partition "on device"?

Just because I am going to be away from my computer over the festive period, but will still be trying roms out. :-)

[Desire Android Development] mad-murdock:
here you go:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16186798/cm7/update-cm-7.0.0-mad001-Desire-signed.zip

no network location (defer working on it right now)

no international keyboard, only japanese and chinese (patch waits for merging - you can use chinese to get at least some other keyboard downloaded)

all credit go to kali- and defer for beeing pretty patient in helping me getting this compiled - and of course to the cm dev team. i only compiled it.

if network location and keyboard get merged, i might upload a new version, which might be more usable.
[Desire Android Development] cTrox:
Thanks, flashing now...

Wohoo first cm 7 ever :D
[Desire Android Development] Roscopcoletrain:
so, apps, should everything work maybe? Launcher pro?

hmm wait for a few reviews before diving in :p
[Desire Android Development] cTrox:
Works good, flashed directly over Oxygen 2 RC1 without wiping. And no, I'm not gonna post any bugs :D

Thanks for sharing!
[Desire Android Development] fenderf4i:
Tried it for a few minutes, was much snappier than the Oxygen build. Love the screen off animation, as silly as that sounds.
[Desire Android Development] bzbetty:
Tried it out for a while, sadly firerat didn't live through the upgrade and didn't want to install for me either (e2fsck not found). Looks good so far though.
[Desire Android Development] Pedro80:
As you wish

As requested:

Today I actually used my handset for the first time and discovered that min vol. level is way to loud. I've read about the bug for a long time now but as it didn't concern me I didn't care. Now I do :-P

I've tested the two boot images posted (as well as 6.1.1 stock off course) and I gotta say that I prefer the 1500_500. I could even see myself going even lower than -1500 actually.

Tested using CM 6.1.1, Desire SLCD and stock Desire (wired) handset.
[Desire Android Development] Roscopcoletrain:
Not sure what went on, but no luck for me. tried a wipe, seemed to go ok, it sat on the boot screen for 30min.

went back to 6.1.1
[Desire Android Development] echohack:
cm 7.0 uploaded by mad-murdock is really nice :D Thanks. Cant wait for a stable release.
[Desire Android Development] Roscopcoletrain:
arg, Im jealous. not sure why this wont load for me :(
[Desire Android Development] nbedford:
I'm liking the gingerbread, thanks mad-murdock. :)

However, i really dont like ADW, does anyone know where I can find the stock gingerbread launcher? (i have a version modified for froyo, but i guess i dont need a moddifed on anymore)

Thanks in advance
[Desire Android Development] mbroeders:
This one looks like the original gingerbread launcher...

-edit- but you can find many more in the market btw
[Desire Android Development] killawatts:
I had a couple quick questions about the cm7.0

1.) for anyone who has it installed how much space is it taking up on the system partition? I'm running a custom table and my system partition is currently 125mb... should I make it bigger?

2.) Any froyo->>> gingerbread upgrade requires a full wipe right? I mean... we will never be able to just flash 7.x over 6.x without a wipe?

I want to try out some gingerbread goodness! haha
[Desire Android Development] mad-murdock:
this is not for installing - this is just a preview version, not intended for every day use. if it was ready for the audience, there would be nightly builds, right? ^^ if you wanna use gingerbread every day, take oxygen for now.
[Desire Android Development] madd0g:
Unzip it and you'll see how big it is ;P
[Desire Android Development] najar360:
where can i get this CM 7.0?

edit : nevermind, i already found the link
[Desire Android Development] frocee:
anyone tried DSP Manager with CM7? it doesn't work for oxygen :(
[Desire Android Development] mad-murdock:
cm7 alpha unofficial build 002

here is a new build of cyanogen 7 - again, all i did is compile it and share it with you nightly folks

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16186798/cm7/update-cm-7.0.0-mad002-Desire-signed.zip

please remember, if something doesnt work, dont complain. i personally will try to use it as my standard rom, but i dont know yet, what will work and what wont. dont expect any support from the official devs, who are still deep down in integrating more cm features and tweaking the kernel. but at first looks, this version seams pretty good.

for new integrated features, look here: http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#q,status:merged+branch:gingerbread,n,z - age of rom is post-date minus 45 minutes.

i hope, defer and kali dont slap me for posting (:

have a lot of fun
[Desire Android Development] echohack:
Been running your build 001 since yesterday. Runs good enough for me. Downloading your new 1 right now, about to flash it.

Really appreciate you uploading it for us:) Thanks again
[Desire Android Development] marinierb:
Cool. Thanks!

There is still quite a bit of work to do for the devs, though.
[Desire Android Development] Roscopcoletrain:
Wooo got it to install. :D

Keep getting some input.kinpin error but overall, sweet!

excited for this release!
[Desire Android Development] najar360:
does it compatible with firerat script so far?or any idea on a2sd+?
[Desire Android Development] cTrox:
I don't know why, but the 002 Build is so much faster and smoother than Oxygen RC2! I know I shouldn't be doing this, but I think I'm gonna leave it on my desire for now :D
[Desire Android Development] fenderf4i:
I found Oxygen to be too laggy.
[Desire Android Development] mad-murdock:
cm7 is pretty bad fast, yes - i also noticed that.

too bad - for me: i watch series in bed before i fall asleep - sometimes only 5 minutes, sometimes much longer. after 3 nights without series, i switched back to my cm611 backup - since rock player (and the others) are not able to playback hdtv divx/mp4 files

hope when nexus one rom is released, and the grafics driver is reverse engineered and put into cm kernel, watching highres video works again (:

downgrading to froyo cm was a hit in the face btw - its much slower - i never noticed before...
[Desire Android Development] schiznik:
I know this isn't the oxygen thread, but videos work fine now, rock player needed updating to support gingerbread
[Desire Android Development] mad-murdock:
hey schiznik, merry christmas!

you totally made my day - i didnt notice the rockplayer update. now i can watch videos to fall asleep on cm7... thats insane great, since i really continue to use cm7 as all-day rom now.

if someone misses kernel modules (which are not in the build yet), you find them here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16186798/cm7/cm7-modules.zip - signed+flashable zip containing cifs, utf8 and all the rest. at least cifs and nls_utf8 are working.

firerat a2sd not working btw... i knew it wouldnt survive updates, since /system/etc/custom_backup_list.txt is not yet in there - but the a2sd script does not install at all, since things changed.

someone could try dark tremors implementation - but i guess i get along with less space for a while. most apps i had installed were not used much anyways.

again, merry christmas, happy new modules and thanks for the rockplayer tip (:
[Desire Android Development] RedSkyRoad:
Hey all, merry Xmas to all...

Q: is there a CM 7 thread open already?
[Desire Android Development] cTrox:
Thank you! I was searching like mad for those yesterday xD

Merry christmas!
[Desire Android Development] ziggy1001:
I don't think so this is on Kali's twitter

"RT @cyanogen We haven't released CM7 for any platform yet because no camcorders work. You can build it yourself (cont) http://tl.gd/7mit6c"
[Desire Android Development] madman_cro:
lol. i find it other way around
[Desire Android Development] mad-murdock:
i tested both cm7alpha and oxygen - and for sure both are faster than any froyo rom - i dont see a big difference. also both are build around the same kernel patches (not exactly the same, but if one makes a major break through, the other will implement it, too) - so, both roms are great.

remember: when testing a rom for speed and stability, always do a full wipe, since old apps may destroy any valid test results.

merry xmas to all of you
[Desire Android Development] Kali-:
not exactly, for what i see oxygen use 2.2 framework
[Desire Android Development] mad-murdock:
doesnt adam use most of the cm-kernel-patches of yours on the vork kernel, which is also based very much on cm kernel?

of course, cm kernel and oxygen kernel are not the same - but they are close - correct me, if i am wrong
[Desire Android Development] Kali-:
yes, all aosp rom based (also miui) use a kernel based on our work over aosp kernel, they have added few, and many times unstable, patches

this can be also applyed to framework which is the core of the rom (Defrost and OpenDesire use the aosp framework pimped by CM)
[Desire Android Development] najar360:
murdock,

any update on 003 version? ;)

kali,

any idea which script can be use on cm7 atm?

oxygen still using 2.2 framework and too laggy. murdock's version seem more fast. i love to use use b4 official release but lack of a2sd+ script support.

try dark tremor, but it cant survive.
[Desire Android Development] mad-murdock:
i can post an updated version...

sip is working mostly (disconnects on screen-off), gps works, fm radio should work (not tested yet)

didnt know, you want new versions on a regular basis. will compile/upload later today
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
So still with WiFi PM_MAX? Hope they switch it to PM_FAST in the Nexus OTA...

Or is it a complete disconnect, i.e. hangup?
[Desire Android Development] Kali-:
the problem is not the pm_fast, 2.3 have integrate sip api, probably sip app have to be rewritten to use it.

btw pm_fast is not required also on 2.2 for sip, i didnt use sip but a friend with n1 have no problem with cm-kernel
[Desire Android Development] manom18x:
off course we want!!!! thx :D
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
2.3 has SIP built directly into the Android native dialer. No app necessary :)

Or do you mean that the dialer app itself needs to be rewritten/tweaked?

It's required if you want to use SIP on WiFi with the screen off ;)... otherwise you'll get no/choppy incoming sound. With the screen on it works fine though :)
[Desire Android Development] mad-murdock:
i did some tests with sip:

cyanogen 7 "stock": disconnect from sip server after 5-10 minutes screen off

cyanogen 7 with vorkkernel (pm_fast): same problem

cyanogen 7 "stock" with CSipSimple (the SIP-app from kali's friend): no problem, no disconnect

=> the sip disconnect is not kernel / pm_fast dependend.

i did a test with wifi explorer - screen on: 1,1mb/s - screen off: 350kb/s

350kb/s is way enough to keep a connection alive

i also did test with ssh, if wifi is disconnected for a short time when screen is off, it is not disconnected

=> again, the kernel is great.

rebooting linux now for 003 version, since you all want it...
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
Thanks for the info, sounds like I won't need to compile any more bcm4329.ko modules after Gingerbread :D
[Desire Android Development] mad-murdock:
you gotta wait a bit more for a new cm7 build. right now, system doesnt start up. i was thinking, it was my first own patch screwing up the boot. compiling again without it didnt help. not sure whats wrong atm - will look into it later, since i got some private stuff to do now. sorry
[Desire Android Development] najar360:
thanks murdock, i will wait.

anyway, do you know which a2sd+ script that we can use atm?try dark tremor.it failed.but i can see oxygen can use a2sd+. i wonder what script adamg's use.
[Desire Android Development] Kali-:
i hope next time u trust my source :D

bemymonkey u have to join to #teamdesire :p
[Desire Android Development] mad-murdock:
+1 on that!
[Desire Android Development] najar360:
Can i just join this channel?or need to be invite?
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
Why didn't I think of that before? :p
[Desire Android Development] mad-murdock:
cm7 alpha unofficial build mad004

as you wished, an updated version.

cm7mad004: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16186798/cm7/update-cm-7.0.0-mad004-Desire-signed.zip

cm611 signed modules (tun,cifs,utf8,etc): http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16186798/cm7/cm7-modules.zip (should work with cm7 kernel)

like usual, no credit goes to me, i just compiled it.

changes from last build (002):

- fm radio working

- SIP working (disconnects 5-10minutes after screen off for me, so no incoming calls possible anymore. does not reconnect every time on screen on)

- gps working (thanks to _thalamus who send me updated gapps)

- tons more - check this link: http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#q,status:merged+branch:gingerbread,n,z

please remember, if something doesnt work, dont complain.

dont expect any support from the official devs, who are still deep down in integrating more cm features and tweaking the kernel.

i use this rom as my daily rom, but you need to be a bit of an adventurer for this (:
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
Does this http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#q,status:open+branch:gingerbread,n,z mean that there's only a little work left to do on the merge? Only ~15 things left to do?

Or am I just being overly optimistic? :p
[Desire Android Development] Narfx:
Thanks =). I've come back from oxygen RCs. I miss gingerbread's blacks and greens, but I missed *way* more the speed and the extra features from cm (sorry, cm, I promise I'll never cheat on you again =). Can you tell me if OJ wake and the 4x4 music applet have been already ported to gb?
[Desire Android Development] mad-murdock:
nope, sorry. it was the wrong link (corrected this)

also, it works like this: a dev creates a patch, which improves something. he now commits his changes. they show up under the wrong link - status open. now at least 2 devs must review that changes and say they like it. when that is done, the patch is merged, and everyone using the git repository automatical gets it.

this can be done over and over again - so there is no real end at this.

edit: i noticed my google account doesnt show up in 004 version at settings->accounts&sync and so market + gmail exit on start.
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
Oh, I thought all issues that are to be merged are set to "Open" right at the beginning.

Your link wasn't wrong, btw., I switched to "Open" myself and then copied the link ;)
[Desire Android Development] Roscopcoletrain:
Anything significant not working in v4?
[Desire Android Development] mad-murdock:
since not having market sucks, i uploaded 005:http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16186798/cm7/update-cm-7.0.0-mad005-Desire-signed.zip

fm radio, gps, sip should be working here, google account fixed.

it also contains a new power control widget, which is customizable - you know it from cm6
[Desire Android Development] Roscopcoletrain:
Nice! Thanks :D
[Desire Android Development] Silence66:
great thanks:)

so the only thing that doens't work is the video recording? or is it also fixed?
[Desire Android Development] najar360:
not yet. still in progress
[Desire Android Development] mad-murdock:
The gingerbread graphic drivers are not in yet. Waiting for the nexus one gingerbread release for those... And there was something else kali mentioned, but I forgot

Swyped with HTC Desire. Excuse typos.
[Desire Android Development] catohagen:
hi,

after flashing cm7-mad005, my 16gb SD card isn't mounting, at all.....not in recovery either, I tried formatting it in recovery and got no errors, but still nothing when phone booted, all my contents are still there when i connect SD card in computer with sdcard reader, any one have any ideas? I cant restore my older backups either :).....still....amazing rom :)
[Desire Android Development] bemymonkey:
Can you access ADB? If not, USB bricked... http://android.modaco.com/content/h...com/309939/usb-brick-rickrolled-b0rked-fixed/
[Desire Android Development] Silence66:
thanks for the info. sounds like story with my old magic phone when the first 2.x roms appeared;)
[Desire Android Development] RustyJoe:
Hey mad-murdock,

Thanks for uploading to us craving CM users..

There is a problem I have been encountering (not posting a bug, just a question): the ROM is not flowing as smooth as it did in CM 6.1.1 (or Oxygen 2.0 RC2). It's not that it is not fast but it is a bit choppy and not as smooth as it was. Is this due to the graphics drivers? This problem started from Oxygen RC3 and up too and is in CM 7 RC0..

Anyway, kudos for the great work..
[Desire Android Development] io53:
+1. I would rather have low quality, smooth scroll than high quality choppy scroll. Maybe someone could make a flashable zip that changes the lower the scrolling graphics? :)
[Desire Android Development] nbedford:
I had exactly the same problem after flashing mad-murdocks RC0, but after a bit of searhcing I found this thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=10008496#post10008496

and it solved my problems 100% fixed.
[Desire Android Development] cTrox:
+1 to that! I would do it myselft, but I don't know which files are responsible for those graphic settings.
[Desire Android Development] mad-murdock:
Usb brick is the fault of the recovery. I have it every now and then with amonra and heard, cwm can also create usb brick under certain conditions... the good side: it is pretty easy to fix...

Swyped with HTC Desire. Excuse typos.
[Desire Android Development] mad-murdock:
About smoothness and the rest... I am just a user like you... Not a dev. I just compile the sources, and follow the development.

Any requests for changes must go to the devs, which will ignore them, since it's not ready yet... There is a reason we don't have nightlies yet.

hope that clarifies what kind of nothing I am in the big cm game. I even got the feeling some people don't like me uploading builds

Edit: fire me the rom it's very smooth. Did you try a full wipe? It might be an app which isn't ready for gingerbread and consumes too much cpu.. I found some wallpapers to slow down the system way too much for example

Swyped with HTC Desire. Excuse typos.
[Desire Android Development] io53:
I'm running oxygen rc4 atm. The lag came with a graphics improvement in rc3, but this rom seem to have got the same improved graphics
[Desire Android Development] Roscopcoletrain:
I know I have a bad app. Full wipe Im good, but if not, I get some Pinyin Chinese force close error.

I just hate full wipes and having to set everything up again :( lol
[Desire Android Development] Kali-:
maybe, because patch come from cyanogen? :rolleyes:

some patches are needed to work with old 2.2 binary, probably many problem will be fixed with the first "adreno 2xx" 2.3 rom release (probably the nexus ota)
[Desire Android Development] catohagen:
yeah, fixed it with two fastboot commands :) and reflashed clockwork recovery 2.5.0.1, been using amonra for a few weeks, but never had problems with clockwork
[Desire Android Development] ziggy1001:
Thanx for the upload mad-murdock very interesting to play around with and generally speaking most of it worked minus most of the usual CM mods

For some odd reason i had Uk English combined with a Japanese dictionary:confused:
[Desire Android Development] worstenbrood:
I had it once with cwm too, would be cool if koush built in a usb brick fix option in the recovery.
[Desire Android Development] fenderf4i:
AmonRa is figuring it must be the kernel causing the USB bricking, not the recoveries.
[Desire Android Development] worstenbrood:
Btw, for the people that run mad's cm7 rc's, i edited the ramdisk of the boot image so that it does run-parts and creates a sd-ext folder, after flashing the attached zip you can flash fireat a2sd or dtapps2sd (the update zip changes the ramdisk only, not the kernel, so this should work on both vorkKernel and the original cm kernel)

Works for me on CM7-mad5 with dtapps2sd.
[Desire Android Development] najar360:
so i can use as usually like cm6.1.1+firerat 1.36c?
[Desire Android Development] Kali-:
@najar360

probably not, but i have made some patches which can add the missing thing (patches are on code review)

i have spent some hours yesterday on a2sd and bind mount and firerat script is really better then DT on CM

no blotware

no /system change

no need to flash again after update

....
[Desire Android Development] najar360:
thats relief. hope it will be approve fast. :). and really³ need murdock's help to compile this on next release (i mean unofficial).. at least i can have all my application install in cm7. dont care whether it can be running or not. but in future sure can running after got update.
