Could you post a link to the current source?

One bug i noticed was that the Home key for some reason turned off the screen.

And the general slowness of 2D rendering, youtube problems (I guess we need to rebuild Stagefright libraries as in the final version, the still buggy 2.2 release ones were used), WiFi problem (I discovered this is a bit different now. So, it STAYS connected, but when the device is waken, it disconnects and reconnects).

I haven't tried many games, but Angry Birds Seasons, for instance, force crashes for me when I try to load it. News and Weather app also FCs.

I also woke up to find my phone unresponsive this morning and a white LED blinking, had to take out the battery.

Not being critical though, some great work being done on this, thanks :P

Oh and yeah, library linking problems. Just have DDMS running and your Blade connected to your PC when you first boot it, you will see, a lot of libraries fail to link properly.

Bcos they want to use a linked library too, what failed to link -> force close.

Installed CM7. Haven'd had any major problems (yet?)

Anyway using the Honeybread theme. It works on the Blade. It looks totally awesome. Except that the signal bars appear to always be empty.

On the CM7, does the screen turn black and never turn on again after a call?

I had the same problem, only way out was remove the battery. Tried full format and reinstalling CM7, still did it.

Gone back to FLB Froyo G2 for now but i will return to it when some more of the bugs have been ironed out :P

Oh I just noticed in the first post now that the proximity sensor is not working, so that's your answer. :P

not experienced that, proximity seems to work for me for ending calls

Unnoficial update time!

Cyanogen 7 R2.5 - For those who don't want to muck around with the files.

Fixes: Lights, power Button, Keyboard & white screen problems.

IMO, "key 142 POWER WAKE_DROPPED" should be "WAKE" instead of "WAKE_DROPPED"

can you give the reasons behind why you have reached this opinion?

[Guest Cazomino05]

if the touch screen stops working try pressing the unlock button, it happened to me twice now and seems to fix itself when the lock screen is active o.O

EDIT I'm using CM7 2.5

WAKE_DROPPED needs power button pressed down couple seconds before screen wakes up, WAKE needs only one press.

Thats the way it is in original rom's.

The stock Android source does not use HW acceleration for the UI.

And Stagefright is enabled by default, but as the H.264 codec is bugged it is kinda useless. We need to recompile it!

2.3 defaults to on if it is not specified

[Guest ladiko]

is there any benefit in using cyanogen mod in comparison to other roms for the blade?
