To comment on the last few people:

SetCPu is working fine.

My quadrant is working, but some of the tests don't display, but it still gives me a score. It doesn't seem to have an effect on the outcome.

I've had no problems with widget distortion using the GO Launcher.

My trackball navigation is working fine.

I haven't had any pixelation on icons or menus.

Your SD card doesn't need to be partitioned. Did you do a /system Format?
[HTC Aria Android Development] DanGeorges:
I've found the following issues (from the first build):

Sometimes the "hard" keys like menu and home need to be pressed twice

Trackball navigation works, but is much slower and less responsive than with Liberated Froyo. I didn't use CM6, so I can't say if this is a CM issue or if it's just for GB.

Trackball wake sometimes doesn't work on the first press.

Hidden WiFi networks don't seem to work.
[HTC Aria Android Development] jdwhite87:
I can second the "hard" keys needing to be pressed twice somwtimes. And my GPS still doesn't seem to be working. But then again mine installed fine the first time before the format /system step was even established. Ill do that tonight and see if it fixes it.

Hidden WiFi update - Build # 4

Still cannot connect to the hidden WiFi network. Too bad.
[HTC Aria Android Development] guido3300:
Did anyone else notice that now you can use multitouch to view all of your desktop screens just like in Sense? Not sure if it's new but I don't remember seeing that on CM6.

I'm running Nightly build 4 (Second Release) and everything's working fine. At least the wi-fi didn't disconect like it didn't on the first release. No pixelated icons either.
[HTC Aria Android Development] zervic:
Explain first question regarding multitouch.
[HTC Aria Android Development] zervic:
How is that a lot of work to do? All you do is press the power button before you put the phone to your ear. -_-
[HTC Aria Android Development] jdwhite87:
do people having issues with the hold button have a case on the phone? i had one that actually blocked the sensor and the screen would stay on during a call...
[HTC Aria Android Development] tacitapproval:
I am having an issue with the browser pausing on page loads. Some pages load faster than others (the Teamdouche nightly mirror is particularly slow). What is odd is this has persisted across different roms. Someone in the CM6.1 thread mentioned this problem and that it also happened on liberated froyo as well. I have tried different browsers, as well as full wipes between roms, and the problem remains. I can't pinpoint when the issue began, but it has happened for a while now. I just wonder if others are seeing it too, as I only saw it mentioned in the other thread?

Edit: I am on the latest nightly, but it has happened for several versions now.

Edit 2: Nevermind, I solved the problem by flashing adfree fix after dt a2sd, instead of before. If anyone experiences similar, try this
[HTC Aria Android Development] gdeadfan:
I've definitely hit the hold button in call with my face a couple times since switching to CM7 as well. No I don't use a case, yes I keep the phone close to my face. I don't know what it is, but apparently the screen will turn on for a short amount of time, perhaps due to the proximity sensor not detecting my face, and in that time I accidentally hit the hold button, or even sometimes the hang up button. I did recently start just locking the screen before putting the phone up to my ear, which works for me, but like the other guy said, that just seems kinda silly to have to do that. I have definitely heard of other phones having this problem, even the iPhone struggled with it for a while. Proximity sensors are finicky little guys.
[HTC Aria Android Development] fmac:
You know its a PHONE right?
[HTC Aria Android Development] Noz85:
A "smart" phone ;)
[HTC Aria Android Development] Tx Redneck:
I had to go back to 25, 26 was to flaky. Hopefully the next will be better, I'm grateful for all the hard work nonetheless.
[HTC Aria Android Development] brswattt:
flaky how?
[HTC Aria Android Development] powerchess:
Anyone notice that the display is killing the battery really fast? I use a really dark background too, but it still uses up 50% of my battery.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Moh_Jay:
Display takes 75% on mine, this is good meaning I have less power consuming apps. If your battery drains make sure its not on auto brightness and set it to a brightness that satisfies you.

Signatures are fancy.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Tx Redneck:
Screen tearing while scrolling on web pages, browser's only partially loading are the first two items that come to mind.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Moh_Jay:
None of that happens to me... maybe you should quit looking at porn pics XD

Signatures are fancy.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Tx Redneck:
No, no pr0n here. It was so bad that I couldn't look up rate plans for a buddy on ATT's site.
[HTC Aria Android Development] seboj:
Usage % does not translate into a quick or slow drain in battery. It just means, of all the things that have drained your battery thus far, the display accounted for 50% of it.

For example, my battery is currently at 24% and has been off charge for 15.4 hours, with the display accounting for 51% of the usage. This is in line with my expectations, since I always have my display at 100% brightness.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Tx Redneck:
Is there any way to keep the buttons from being so easily removed from the launcher/dock thing and also prevent it from hiding if I accidentally swipe my finger across it just right?
[HTC Aria Android Development] drumist:
LCD displays will always draw the same about of power regardless of what colors are being displayed. The only factor that plays a role in battery life is how bright the backlight is set to.

Dark colors only conserve power on AMOLED screens (like what the Galaxy S phones use, for example).
[HTC Aria Android Development] drumist:
You can disable the swipe thing... I'm not using ADW right now but I believe it's called something like "shortcut bar" or "app bar" or something. Someone using it can probably tell you the exact location of the setting.

If you haven't tried it, I really suggest switching to LauncherPro instead though. It has a setting that lets you lock icons in place to prevent you from accidentally moving stuff around once you've set it up. It also seems to run more smoothly in my experience.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Noobla_Khan:
Build 27 looks good. Looks like they pulled rom manager out.
[HTC Aria Android Development] CallMeAria:
The problem is that the sensor is off center so if you hold the phone a certain way your ear doesn't cover the sensor and the screen comes on and your cheek can then press whatever buttons.
[HTC Aria Android Development] drumist:
Aye. The way I naturally hold a phone (against my right ear), the proximity sensor is only BARELY covered by the very edge of my ear, so if I move it even slightly the screen will turn back on. I would imagine someone who holds the phone to their left ear would have zero problems with the proximity sensor on the Aria though.
[HTC Aria Android Development] corno1979:
settings > adw launcher > ui settings > uncheck dockbar
[HTC Aria Android Development] zervic:
Your reason for asking that question is...? And, to answer it, yea i know it's a phone rofl...i am failing to see how dialing a number and hitting the power button before you bring it to your ear is a lot of work...maybe you can spell it out for me without your idiotic sarcasm.
[HTC Aria Android Development] cHarley04:
I had the same problem. I solved the issue by locking the desktop. Menu > Lock Desktop
[HTC Aria Android Development] Tx Redneck:
27 is Niiiiice!

I flashed 27 this AM after reverting to 25 because of issues w/ 26 and it's buttery smooth. The screen tearing is gone when scrolling through web pages and sites fully load now.

Thanks fellas for all yalls hard work on these nightlys.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Noobla_Khan:
Yep...build 27 seems like a winner!
[HTC Aria Android Development] jeebuz:
I just tested my proximity sensor and I didn't even have to bring it fully to my face before the screen turned off and stayed off no matter how much I moved it around on the side of my face (both left and right side)... I'm not sure how to reproduce what you guys are doing? :S

EDIT: Correction, I put my ear on the SCREEN and the screen turned on... because the proximity sensor is looking at the back of my head rather than my ear now... how are you guys holding it? o_O I normally put the earpiece right where my tragus is...
[HTC Aria Android Development] L551:
Superuser broke somewhat for me on 27, had to reinstall any apps that required it, then have it forget previous permissions

Sent from my Aria - CM7 Build 27
[HTC Aria Android Development] Darius_bd:
Thanks for the input guys ;]

I dont get the problem you're all getting o_O Maybe your ears are small? hehe. Still, putting the thumb over the sensor should fix it, right? since it is so far off from the earpiece and it's better than turning the screen off as you would just need to get the thumb off to bring the screen back... At least my thumb is big and I have no problems with listening...
[HTC Aria Android Development] Javi97100:
Hi I'm running the newest nightly and I.noticed that unlike cyanogen mod 6 I cant move all my apps to sd card any fix for thus?

Edit: fixed it
[HTC Aria Android Development] CallMeAria:
I used to get the hold button problem a lot, almost every call I was on, but it hasn't happened to me in a few months now. Not sure what changed...
[HTC Aria Android Development] cjtulowiecki:
Running the latest liberty nightly build. Runs like a beast. No lag no fc's all my apps work. Great job. One thing though. Not sure if I was just doing it wrong but it wouldn't sync my Google contacts. Anyone having this problem?
[HTC Aria Android Development] attn1:
There are no broad wifi issues to resolve, and I do not plan to change the wifi driver one iota. I am using the one that works right for most people, and flawlessly for me.

If you are not having such luck, then you need to look at your access point if you have already wiped data.

Really, the constant carping about wifi is absolutely pointless.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Noobla_Khan:
Agreed, I have run almost every nightly for CM7 and not had any wifi issues to speak of. Not sure why some are.
[HTC Aria Android Development] juggalofr33k:
I'm actually kind of happy with the change to the battery status on the lock screen in 28. I did not like how it said discharging... everything is great with it!
[HTC Aria Android Development] Darius_bd:
x2

And the other day I saw a samsung with android that couldnt connect to an AP I was able to, and it had vanilla firmware. So I guess there's just some compatibilities that will always lay somewhere around.
[HTC Aria Android Development] cHarley04:
I've run into this same type of connection problem lately with brand new netbooks and laptops. For those that are having WiFi connect issues and have access to your wireless router/AP, I suggest that you try setting your wireless Router/AP encryption to TKIP instead of AES. AES works for me on my Aria connected to my AP, but I've had trouble connecting to other AES APs until I switched them to TKIP.

I suspect this is more of a compatibility issue with some APs running AES, than an issue with CM7.

My 2¢
[HTC Aria Android Development] Frrrrrrunkis:
I am rather conservative with my Aria. I have been using attn1's liberated rom based on the gratia. I was wondering when and if cm7 is going to be considered a 'finished' product? i ask onlynbecause my phone is my only means of connection and i cannot lose it with an unstable build. That being said, does anyone have a rough timeline estimate?
[HTC Aria Android Development] Moh_Jay:
Cm7 is still being worked on but cyanogen has said that it is almost done. It is also very stable for an unstable build.

Signatures are fancy.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Darius_bd:
Do a nandroid backup, you can always go back to your previous ROM in just 15 mins and tadá ;)
[HTC Aria Android Development] Tx Redneck:
I just dl'ed and installed Launcher Pro and w0w were you guys right. It beats the feces outta ADW. Based on the freebie, is there really that much more configuration options to the paid version?
[HTC Aria Android Development] barisahmet:
You can resize widgets, and use launcher pro plus's facebook, people, calendar etc.. widgets. no extra configuration options as far as I know
[HTC Aria Android Development] Tx Redneck:
Thank you. ;)
[HTC Aria Android Development] zervic:
The only rule for cyanogenmod is don't ask for ETAs.

That being said, CM7 is by no means an "unstable" build. Not to mention, like someone already said, if you nandroid backup your current configuration, you can restore it within 15 minutes. Simple. No harm, no foul.
[HTC Aria Android Development] stone_ship:
Not to mention you will support the developer, who is in the midst of recoding the entire app from scratch to make it even more streamlined!
[HTC Aria Android Development] DroidRunner:
It's so stable its stupid.
[HTC Aria Android Development] syed239:
Is anyone else having the problem with wifi turning off when you unlock the phone? Running build 28 and my wifi sleep policy is set to never.

Sent from my Liberty CM7
[HTC Aria Android Development] Tx Redneck:
Mine doesn't completely turn off to where I have to re- enable it but it generally takes a few seconds for the icon to show in the notification bar.

Mine is set to never sleep as well.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Noz85:
There is no network data on 29...
[HTC Aria Android Development] attn1:
Most access points/routers are have compatibility issues with some devices/drivers. It's too bad that standards were developed around screwed up technology implementations, and not the other way around. It is what it is.
[HTC Aria Android Development] ARMarlowe:
Interesting problem, I am running 26 and my phone restarted today and now the home button and the search button do not work, however, the menu and back key do. Anyone else have this problem or any ways to fix it?

thanks in advance!

And thank you devs!
[HTC Aria Android Development] Googa:
Ditto that, on 26.
[HTC Aria Android Development] zervic:
If i'm not mistaken, the wifi DRIVER will still sleep on it's own after detecting no bus activity for a period of time...but the wifi SERVICE is still active due to what you have set for your wifi sleep policy.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Tx Redneck:
That makes sense.
[HTC Aria Android Development] jeebuz:
My WiFi is set to Never on build 28. Haven't touched my phone for a few hours (studying for midterms...), but I just turned the screen back on a few minutes ago and my WiFi is up and running, no downtime.
[HTC Aria Android Development] CallMeAria:
For those that are worried about this roms stability, I've been running cm7 non stop since the first nightly, now on build 28, and haver never had any stability issues. Not one. The only problem I've run into thus far was a problem with the phone.apk in a couple builds back, which was an easy fix. The rom itself has been nothing but reliable. The problems read about in this thread may seem like a lot, but in reality they make up a very small percentage of users.

so basically, make a backup and flash cm7. Worst case scenario is that you end up being one of those people that just has problems (most off which can be fixed), and you restore your backup. No harm no foul. But the most likely scenario is that you won't have issues. But you won't know until you try it.

EDIT: I'd also like to mention that I use my phone to talk, text, email, use the internet (wifi/3G), as a GPS, to listen to music, to play games, and I use bluetooth everyday at work. I'm constantly on my phone for one reason or another, so its being put through its paces.
[HTC Aria Android Development] syed239:
Yeah that's what mine does. It takes about 10-15 seconds to come back on.

On build #29...not to sure if this was just me or not.....but the reception was going up and down all the time and I wasn't getting texts I dont think.

Went back to #28 and all was good.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Noobla_Khan:
Hmmm...not seeing that here. I turned wifi off and waited a minute and was able to sync my exchange account and gmail with no issues. My network data is fine. I flashed over 28, no complete wipe prior to 29.
[HTC Aria Android Development] jeebuz:
My network data is fine here also.
[HTC Aria Android Development] tribestros:
See, everyone says that CM7 is stable, etc etc. But when I flashed it, I had issues with trackball wake, GPS, WiFi, notifications, compressed graphics. And as far as I've read, these problems are STILL prevalent. Obviously it's not very stable? Not being a ****, just saying. It's kind of misleading.
[HTC Aria Android Development] DroidRunner:
I only had 1 problem really. I don't think we are all collaborating a big lie to screw over people. It's a very stable build. Probably because I don't screw around with stuff by tweaking things I shouldn't touch
[HTC Aria Android Development] strose09:
I've had great luck with the Nightly builds. I even found a work around for my GPS issue. If I go to Maps first I will get a GPS lock instead of clicking the Navigation Icon first. Clicking on the Navigation icon just results in continues searching for a signal. I'd say its pretty stable. Maybe it's User Error or maybe all phones are not created equal. The developers have done a fantastic job and keep helping those that have had issues. I appreciate everything they've accomplished.
[HTC Aria Android Development] kinggrowler:
It's a good suggestion, but the networks I manage all use TKIP, so this wasn't a solution for me. Also, I have strange behaviors regardless the network I connect to, which is quite a lot.

attn1 stresses that he isn't changing anything about wifi in CM7, so really, if you have problems, just roll back to CM6.
[HTC Aria Android Development] cHarley04:
CM7 has been one of the most stable product releases I've seen. Has it had it's quirks and some problems, Yes. Have any of the releases prevented me from carrying on with my day, No. It's still under development for Chxxxx sakes. My trackball wake, GPS, Wifi, notifications, etc work fine. That's not to say that some "work arounds" haven't been required at times.

If you're not interested in participating as part of the group that's on the leading edge and/or don't want to be bothered by something that's less than perfect, then maybe you're in the wrong place.

On second thought, I don't know of a single "released" product that's perfect.
[HTC Aria Android Development] DougG_ATL:
You run experimental builds to help report anomalies, errors and inconsistencies. If you want to avoid those kinds of things, stick with CM6.1.1, which is still leaps ahead of most stock ROMs.

I'm hesitant to even bother considering the HTC Inspire 4G or Motorola Atrix 4G, because I know both stock OS will be inferior to CyanogenMod.
[HTC Aria Android Development] zervic:
Obviously you haven't done enough reading and obviously you were doing something wrong when you flashed. trackball wake works 98% of the time. GPS is fine for 98% of the people on this ROM. WiFi works fine EXCEPT for the fact it won't auto-connect if you go from in-range, to out-range, back to in-range. notifications work fine, compressed graphics have been fixed as well. So, yes, it is very stable.

The thing about nightlies is they can be stable, but the next nightly may not be. it all depends on the code that's been compiled within the previous 24 hours. usually if you see a major issue in a nightly, people roll back to the previous nightly and it is usually addressed within 1 or 2 nightiles.
[HTC Aria Android Development] lilhaiti:
The only problem I had was the GPS problem and that one has been resolved. I am on build 29 and everything seems to be rock solid, in fact this is my everyday rom now. I use this rom to manage all aspects of my digital life, which it does quite well.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Noobla_Khan:
For me this rom has been stable, I had a GPS issue with 1 build. CM7 nightly has been more stable for me than CM6 nightly were. That being said these are experimental builds, if you have problems with them or do not like them simply don't use them. With CM6 I found myself bouncing between CM and Liberated. Currently I am using nothing but CM7, it has been the best rom yet for the Aria IMHO.
[HTC Aria Android Development] tribestros:
I'm not ragging on anyone's work and/or trying to be an asshole. I just think that to cut down on the people who are *****ing over and over again about WiFi, GPS, or Trackball not working to lead the way for better development, y'all need to stop billing CM7 as "stable".
[HTC Aria Android Development] DroidRunner:
On the website, these are under the nightly builds. (BETA, experimental, ect.) They have not released the stable rom. I think everyone still refers to these as nightlys. BECAUSE THATS WHAT THEY ARE
[HTC Aria Android Development] fmac:
I flashed the correct gapps but some of the google apps applications werent installed. On the first boot I was prompted with all the apps I wanted to install and I selected all of them (Gmail, Goggles, etc) but none of them were installed, anyone with the same problem?
[HTC Aria Android Development] jacobas92:
It's labeled as a NIGHTLY not STABLE.

And I've had 1 total problem that was with build 14/16, gps didn't work. but I fixed it in a matter of minutes with the help of the kind community here and a couple devs posts.

Other than that, no problems for me.
[HTC Aria Android Development] lilhaiti:
This ROM, even though it is still in the nightly phase, is very STABLE. I think the overwhelming majority of the people on here are having pretty good experiences with this ROM, and a small minority are having issues. That being said, there are many different factors that can possibly contribute to one having issues with ANY ROM not just this one, and if a majority of people are not having issues then the devs can only assume that those issues are isolated incidents. I am not saying that the people that are having issues are doing something wrong, I am just saying that all issues are not always the fault of the ROM or the devs that developed it.

Also, if you want to know how solid this ROM is...try it for yourself and make your own call. Follow the direction prescribed in the forums and give it a whirl.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Tx Redneck:
Hmmm, slow page loads again in 28 even when on my home wireless @ 25Mbps dn.

[HTC Aria Android Development] enewman17:
Must agree these roms have been very stable I use it for my daily driver and I have had 0 Issues with the function of the rom, Must be lucky and have a good running phone. Everthing has just worked. Only had 2 FC'S and thats because the app wasn't ready for 2.3, I always wait between a few nightly's to flash it make for going through all the setting more exciting finding all the new stuff. :-) If it weren't for the fact they keep adding stuff I'm sure it would be at a stable. (soon enough)

I want to get the New Inspire 4g I hope it can be rooted and Clockworked! man I cant wait to see if it will run CM7
[HTC Aria Android Development] cease:
Problems?

Not even close to the truth; I have none of these problems on current nightly R28 and haven't had them since R9 I think it was. If one follows the installation steps exactly, no problems.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Googa:
I agree 100% with the folks who say CM7 is stable.

I've been using it daily since the early nightlies, with hardly any issues. And, it keeps getting better: faster, more stable, better battery economy.

I'm running it with DT A2SD, and it's buttery smooth
