Yeah, you can't install HTC apps like the HTC Camera or the HTC FM radio or the sense launcher. No titanium backup doesn't do contacts but when I created contacts I created them on google so I just log in and they're downloaded straight away.

RC1 is the best version of CM7 at the moment in terms of things working.

Answering your question to @IMLGL by radio they mean the FM radio, it will NOT work in CM7 but you can download apps that let you stream it so it's not much of a problem!

Are you rooted? I can guide you to it if you need it or I can go straight to CM7!

I'm sure you'll like CM7!
[Wildfire General] xsada:
CM7 is pretty good.
[Wildfire General] CosmicDan:
Ummm Titanium Backup does do contacts. And SMS, and Calendar, etc, but it probably wont work as its moving from HTC to AOSP ROM.

Cyanogenmod.com has a wiki that details the install process, and also their own forum.

I have found a few bugs, mostly minor though and safely ignored. One that comes to mind is that when trackball centre is assigned to screen-on, it sometimes does nothing. CM7 is freakin' awesome, and so fast. Gameboid runs full speed when holding down screen unlike other rom's. And gingerbread is such an improvement! I especially love the customization in the Notifications button widget... best access to music controls when in another app!

Edit: just do a nandroid backup before flashing a new ROM. If the new one doesn't work out, restore nandroid and no harm done :)
[Wildfire General] kevin2516:
My nandroid bootlooped once, that was fun =D
[Wildfire General] CosmicDan:
Could you elaborate on that? I.e. how you overcame it, and what you did wrong? It's not very nice trying to scare people for no reason. I have never had a nandroid restore cause a bootloop.
[Wildfire General] kevin2516:
Hahaha i'm not trying to scare them, it just happened. I don't know why :S, after formatting my sd card, repartitioning it and putting everything back, it was all fine. it happened when i tried to upgrade wildpuzzle, LOL.
[Wildfire General] CosmicDan:
Well yes, you should always format the swap partition (if you have one) and also do a full wipe/factory reset to erase the .android_secure folder before restoring from a nandroid backup (all under Clockworkmod). Recovery is known to be quite buggy on the Wildfire, though it's mainly with the ADB server.

@djdevine2

hey there. couldnt install htc camera, but there are others camera apps on market right?

maybe you can list me a list of apps that i should get after i change to CM7 TONIGHT<< :p.

my phone is rooted! android 2.2 rooted. so how do i start now?

@jonusc

hey there. =). so titanium backup is out, and then does nandroid backup contacts too? i've used mybackup and it worked quite well. so if no other suitable backup apps i guess i will just stick to it?

@kevin2516

huh huh that will encounter errors too? how often does that happen on people who did the same thing like you?
[Wildfire General] kevin2516:
It was a rare occurrence, only happened like once or twice. But it really doesn't bother me since i'm used to flashing and restoring apps with titanium backup only takes like 20-30min. (i don't have over 100 billion apps i want) ;D
[Wildfire General] djdevine2:
I can't tell you what apps you'll like or find useful! But I like overclock widget for overclocking and LCD density is quite cool!
[Wildfire General] CosmicDan:
I have bought MyBackup Pro, I may try it. I had a problem with TB, I backed up everything in CM7 and reinstalled fresh, but it does not restore Widgets for ADWLauncher properly :(

Nandroid is very different to MyBackup/TB. It takes a complete 1:1 image of your phone. Yes it does do contacts, but you cannot restore those contacts individually - you use nandroid as a complete ROM restore. Before you edit your firmware, Nandroid is used as a backup incase you want to revert. It has no use for migrating across rom's, but is the best and only way for an exact entire backup.
[Wildfire General] halaue:
actually i've found the best way to backup contacts!

just go into the phone/contacts there, press menu, export to sd card and thats done! :D done perfectly!

and for notes backup, i suggest you all to use OnePunchNotes. It can backup either automatically or manually, then restore it even with password. This is the best notes app that I've found so far. :D

for the apps i dont really care i can download it again =).

Im in CM7 now, the GUI is awesome!!!!!!! makes my phone so fresh

but just one problem, sometimes the apps will get force closed and hang, anyone knows why?

p/s: the kernal for overclock is same as stock rom? what what jacob?
[Wildfire General] CosmicDan:
Force close AND hang? They are both completely different things. Which one is it? I get no FC's, if you do try a permissions repair in ROM manager.

If you mean hanging, yes I get this too but only within first few minutes of booting up. Just press Wait and let it finish, pressing Close will make it take even longer to load. Remember that this is RC, it is still in testing stages, so there's nothing you can do except wait for a new version.

Yes, Jacob's HDCR kernel is already in CM7. It is probably best to stick with it too instead of flashing the generic one.

Under performance settings, using a 32mb heap and enabling JIT may help with hanging. Also, switching off dithering definitely helps reduce hanging. It also seems to make my emulators faster :)
[Wildfire General] halaue:
so means that i can directly install SetCPU into it right? I see.

And 1 more thing, the video keeps hang, do you know why? When i start play the video then after 3 secs it hanged =(
[Wildfire General] jorgen2009:
I don't know for sure cause I don't have a Wildfire myself, but in cm7 you can change the CPU speed in Settings - CyanogenMod settings - Performance - CPU settings
[Wildfire General] halaue:
it force closed =(
[Wildfire General] 3xeno:
It is not ready yet. It force closes on every release so far. (Atleast upto RC1)
[Wildfire General] Clarebel:
I installed RC1 yesterday, and I have to say its great. I had a couple of problems installing it, and found that was trying to install a gapps not suitable for my phone, but other than that, it runs smooth.

It also allows me to move nearly every app to my SD card, which is something I couldn't do before.

You don't get all the rubbish you don't use, so it frees up loadsa memory. It seems faster and sharper than before.

Definitely a keeper.

Oh by the way, only way could eventually install was by doing everything through boot recovery, not rom manager. And by wiping dalvik cache, formatting system and factory wipe/reset.

Then install gapps from boot recovery when RC1 installed.

CyanogenMod Wiki, is best place to get links.

I hopes this helps someone.

[Wildfire General] gloomyandy:
Can any of you CM7 users confirm if Bluetooth is working for you? I tried the RC1 and a nightly and I was unable to pair with any devices (The pair pin screen would come up and go away before I could type the pin into it). Also I could not get the phone to establish a connection to my car audio system (using an old pair setup). All of the above works fine using stock HTC code (and also works fine with Wildpuzzle - which I'm currently using)...

Thanks

If you flash the kernal overclocking to 4.1 that should stop hanging and fc.

[Wildfire General] gloomyandy:
Hi 3xeno,

hanks for the feedback on BT. Just to clarify the problems I saw have been with pairing when the remote device selects the pin number. I just don't get enough time to enter it! Cold you let me know which radio and kernel you are running? I had the 4.1 kernel and the 13.53.55.24H_3.35.19.25 radio... Thinking back I did not clear the dalvik cache when I installed RC1 (though I did clear the cache and did the wipe/reset from the recovery menu), I wonder if that was causing any problems...

Thanks again

Andy
[Wildfire General] 3xeno:
Possibly it may. I am using the default kernel which comes with CM7 (i.e. 4.2), and, the oldest radio (The one which ends with 15.31, I don't need to use GPS ever, which is why I have never bothered to update my Radio)
[Wildfire General] CosmicDan:
SetCPU works fine. Hanging video, i don't get. Not with recorded 3GPP videos, nor with ones I've encoded myself (to AVC @ Level 2.3, VBR, 320x240). What format are you playing? With the stock player?
[Wildfire General] halaue:
im using the current video player with CM7. It gets hang really easily. And even after I've installed HCDR Kernal for the overclock, i still get force closed when i enter the performance part. How?
[Wildfire General] pl0ppy:
And by the way, you should think about upgrading to nightly 12. It is based on andoid 2.3.3, which is a step up from RC1's 2.3.2. And video apps in the market shouls stop hanging. And unless you work in a big business with hidden ssid wi-fi networks, cm7 has no bugs.
[Wildfire General] CosmicDan:
Oohh thanks for the tip.... what do you mean CM7 has no bugs?? RC1 or the Nightly you mention? There is a bug, Facebook wont sync to the calendar to name one, and occasionally the speaker wont turn on when I make a call.

Any way to disable SD Card Mounting sounds. I've looked in the normal places and can't find anything. USB Debugging is disabled.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NguyenHuu:
i would also like to know. In addition disable shutdown sound too! I have root if that matters.

edit: just noticed that the shutdown/startup sounds are just the sdcard mounting. is there way to disable this sound?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hotleadsingerguy:
Guessing if you find out where the file is that it loads and just delete it or replace it with a sound file with no sound it'll work. There's no actual option for it though.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FNugget:
I'm new to android. If there is a root file explorer for this and find the sound folders, I'd like to know. Notifications need a sd card, and I hate sifting through the default tones.

If anybody uses Tasker, what you could do is setup a profile that automatically puts the phone into silent mode when the USB is connected. Not the best solution, but it gets the job done; hearing a gazillion noises when I hooked my phone up to my computer was getting way annoying.

is there one?

i just know cyanogen and i heard about "blacky´s rom" but could not find it via google.

thx vm

[Android Software Development] OrganizedFellow:
You won't get an answer here.

You really should just Google it.

There is no list. There is no one collection of these MODS.

I don't know if you are referring to MODS, as those coders/hackers that MODify Android, or if you are looking for MODifications to android.

Either way, you are asking for one helluva long ass list if you think one exists.

There are literally thousands of MODifications you can do to an android device.

There literally hundreds of android MODifiers/coders/hackers/developers, etc.
[Android Software Development] kweso:
yes indeed,

i ment MODifications of android. but not just modifications but roms.

i just wrote 'mods' because cyanogen call their product 'mod'.

and i did google it. especially 'blacky', about which i heard some time ago.

but i could not find anything. when i google 'android mod' 90% of the results

are about cyanogenmod. the rest is something totally different.

and i think if you would take just the notable (means with a certain amount

of developer activity) roms/mods, the list would not be too long.

but anyway, thanx. i will bite my way through.

have a nice one

[Android Software Development] 1234568:
It is clear that custom roms are new to you. I only recently flashed my first custom rom but I think I can be more helpful than some people are choosing to be.

I wouldnt get a rom from google. You dont really know its source and often have no one to contact about issues/suggestions. I think the safest option if to go to the subforum on this site that is specific for your phone. Then click on Android Development Forum. In there you will probably have threads for all the major roms such as CyanogenMod, Revolution, LeeDroid, CoreDroid. These are all being constantly improved and you can also report bugs to help future development. Best advantage is they usually have specific instructions for that rom.

Good luck!

Is market enabler required again like it was for the captivate?
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] luthor_70:
In fact I'm not sure it is new, but I tried it and it works with our tabs.

The software name is "lgcamera" and it can replace the stock camera software.

I tried it yesterday and it is possible to record videos in 1024x600 using H.264 codec and MPEG4 format. It's also possible to chose the bitrate for the video and for the audio. The stock camera can only produce 720x480 videos so that's a nice enhancement. There's settings like sharpness that are not available in the stock app. I found the videos look slightly better with this proggy. Try it and come and report what you think.

You can find a free version on the market and it is fully functional.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] adinis78:
Tried it and i got a bunch of FC of the app and at one point my tab froze. I removed it. Nice idea but it needs to be worked on.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] luthor_70:
You're right, but I only got freeze when I tried to select wrong video size with wrong encoder types.

1024x600 using H.264 codec and MPEG4 format work well with no freeze and seems to be a real enhancement over what offer the stock app.

800x600 works well too.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] w4rmk:
Nice looking program but it crashed on me a minute into recording 1024x600 video. Not worth using if you can't depend on it to record when you really need to.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PanCubano:
I had a thought today while at work and wanted to try my hand at porting over the LiquidMetal rom from the Acer over to our phones. Now, I know this isn't something thats easy to do (especially if you've never done any dev work or port a rom over before, like me.), and I know that if I just wanted to get the rom to boot, I can just swap the kernel's out and the rom should at least boot.

I want to (hopefully) use jermaine151's rom over at the Droid Incred. forum as the rom to port over, but, I still havent asked him as this is still just an idea and I wanted some insight as to what Im doing to need to make this happen.

I know Im going to have to port over a lot of lib files and drivers for wifi and such, so, my question is what would I need so I can at least get this rom up and running?

Also, Im downloading the Source Code for LiquidMetal as I type this, but, I dont know which would be easier to work on, compiling from source or working on a direct port.

Any opinions on this? Any tips would be great.

EDIT: Nevermind. Someone is already working on a port over in the dev section and its bootable already.

[Atrix 4G General] Simba501:
Can someone confirm the amount of RAM that is available to the user? There were rumors that only 512mb was available (leaving the other 512 for the laptop dock). However, I've also heard that around 800mb was available to the user (meaning the full gig, essentially). To easily see this, download Android System Info from the market, open it, and on the first page/tab you can see RAM (total available, etc.)....

Thanks in advance!

Jesus i hope that's not true, there has to be a way to disable that.
[Atrix 4G General] Simba501:
Hey guys, those of you with the device, go into the "tasks" tab of Android System Info.....here you should be able to see EVERYTHING that is consuming memory.....in a task killer, you likely won't be able to kill everything (and you shouldn't). For example, on my inspire, there are a lot of core processes and things that wouldnt show up in a task killer (like phone, etc.). A close look in this tab should give us a clearer picture. It does, however, appear that the full gig (essentially) is available. My inspire's ram is 768 and my max ram is 623, so the atrix seems somewhat comparable in the proportion of available ram.

[Legend General] Gunplay:
1st of all i want to apologize for my bad english .

Few hours ago i had installed this rom, it was just fine, until i applied the app2sd option from SupSetupV16 application. After that my phone turned off with no reason and from then it restarts again and again. I've tried with an sdcard with ext3 & fat32 partition (cuz the app2sd option in this rom requires it, but i didn't saw it earlier, and my phone has no s-off) and the phone loaded the start animation of the rom, than turned off and all over again. The battery level was almost 50% just before the 1st restart, and now the phone is in the charger. The phone does not receive any command from the hardware buttons, just cant enter the recovery mode .. i feel rly fckd up. No volume up + power, volume down, back + power .. nothing. I'll charge it all night and try again in the morning. Somehow im smelling the service ...
[Legend General] psyionx:
i think you got loop because the phone is reading wrong data.

ok... do you have ClockworkMod backup your stuff already? you can unplug your phone from the usb, if it have been boot loop from just now. poor phone. you can disconnect it from the battery. now its totally off. hold Vol - and power on your device. then on the menu, go to recover... the red [!] screen... From what i've know, i can only go to recovery using these combination from the phone is in OFF state. not while its loop booting, and it is somewhat safe to remove your battery when the phone is not writing something to the internal memory.

if you have ClockworkMod, you can run the update.zip (the fake Flash) or if you have hack4Legend (cant remember if this the name on the pc download as i dont use this anymore) plug in your usb to the pc and run Recovery.bat if your windows.

then your on ClockworkMod. from here onward i guess you know what to do. go flash a new rom or do a wipe the data and stuff to see of the loop stops.

hope this worked for you as this is what i did... for a few times already.

If this dont work for you. then you should try the search button for boot loop.
