[ROM][PNK] "Mighty Nutella" ~ Ugly, Slow and Buggy (bloated too) CM7 builds.

After a lot of requests I'm opening a new thread which will contain my latest CM7 builds (you can find my older builds in this thread). I'll be updating this post so people can follow progress easier, and post their requests/observations. In the next few days I'll be updating this thread with information on how to build your own CM7 ROM. Some might consider it messy, but that's how I've been doing it for quite some time now and the result is satisfactory (for me at least). :)

The rom is not pure CM7. I build it from source with the latest commits, then I apply modifications, mostly focusing on speed and smoothness. The releases are not that frequent, you'll be (normally) seeing updates every time there's a bunch of noteworthy additions/fixes by the Cyanogenmod team, or when I'm making significant modifications (even less frequently). If you want a pure CM7 build with frequent (nightly) updates you can take a look at the thread by Kali- which hosts the official nightly releases.

Edit: Here you can find the commit i'm reverting on each release, just in case anyone wants to make their own personal build. <~ Apparently, this is no longer necessary.

Warning!

Make sure you disable Music syncing @ Accounts & Sync, under the settings menu. This is due to the experimental Honeycomb Music.apk. Thanks to the people that pointed it out in the thread! The Honeycomb Music player has been removed in the recent releases.

Bundled with the latest GApps (including the new Market).

You can flash the ROM using either CWM 2.5.1.3 or CWM 3.0.0.5, it's entirely up to you. If you're coming from an older PNK release, you don't have to wipe. If you encounter any problems you might have to, though - so it's advised.

Flashing with CWM 3.0.0.5 (Download)

If by any chance you get into bootloops, download FULL-WIPE.zip from this thread, flash it, and then flash the ROM. If you're still getting bootloops follow these steps:

Go to recovery > Wipe Data > Advanced > Wipe Dalvik Cache > Flash FULL_WIPE.zip (which you downloaded earlier) > Flash the ROM.

Alternatively you can flash CWM 2.5.1.3 and read below.

Flashing with CWM 2.5.1.3(Download)

If you're using CWM2 to flash and you get bootloops, download FULL-WIPE.zip from this thread, flash it, and then flash the ROM. If you're still getting bootloops follow these steps:

Go to recovery > Wipe Data > Advanced > Wipe Dalvik Cache > Flash FULL_WIPE.zip (which you downloaded earlier) > Flash the ROM.

Help! When I flash this ROM and boot: the notification bar is missing / this app keeps FC'ing / I see flying turtles all over my 4.3" screen

YOU DIDN'T WIPE CORRECTLY. Please read this whole post again. And again. And again.

Especially if you're coming from a Sense ROM.

Help! USB Mass Storage isn't working!

If USB isn't working, follow this excellent guide by Walker Street.

Why does my keyboard show japanese characters?

Since the last few builds the keyboard defaults to the japanese one. Just long press in a text input field > Input Method > Select "Android Keyboard".

Quadrant doesn't show anything when running the 3D tests. What's going on?

At the moment, we're missing the Adreno 205 (DesireHD's GPU) library files for Gingerbread. When they're released the problems will be resolved, but for the time being I'm affraid you're going to have to live with it.

Why isn't WiFi working?

Just reboot your device and it'll work just fine! It happens when you flash the ROM for the first time.

Adfree isn't working! I get JavaIOExeption all the time.

You don't need Adfree. The builds comes with a preinstalled hosts file to block ads automatically. You don't need to install an additional application for this.

The Application "xyz" keeps force closing. Can you fix this?

First, make sure you wiped correctly, as stated earlier. This is really one of the most common reasons of getting a force close. If you're absolutely certain that you've wiped and clean-installed the ROM, please take a look at the market comments/description of the app that's forceclosing. Some applications have not been updated to work on Gingerbread (2.3).

How dare you remove the Sim Toolkit application? You should be ashamed of yourself!

Sorry! Some people claim it has a negative effect on battery life. If you

really

need it, you can find it here. Just push it to /system/app/ or copy it to your sdcard and install it using your favorite file manager.
