[Guest eAlex79]

Haha,

Indeed Ive been built in '79, so I'm at least:

1) not glowing in the nights (all build's after 1986 (or 87?) are glowing in the night)

2) built to last longer then lawful warranty is given (again, since around 1986 new stuff breaks around almost exactly when it's warranty is lost)

:D

[Guest Matty-p]

anyone know where we get the nightly builds ?

yea but not till tonight at the VERY erliest but i think its a differnt time zone to here so i dunno what gmt time it is i think it will be somewhere in america definately midnight somewere!

[Guest Victor von Zeppelin]

anyone know where we get the nightly builds ?

The nightly builds section of the CM website.

But considering this was accepted today, don't expect one tonight

[Guest thecoming]

Can someone post here when the nightly builds come up :D

[Guest sensory]

This might be a bit of a stupid question, but once these nightlies do go live, where do we go to download them? (Already answered above; on the CM website)

Can we start getting them through ROM Manager or something similar? And where can we start going for info (changelogs) about the nightlies or the release candidates once they're released? Assuming of course all discussion on the Blade's Cyanogen ROM goes somewhere else.

Great job on getting it this far guys. I never thought I'd see CyanogenMod on the Blade, especially not nightlies. :D

This is properly promising! I uninstalled a load of system apps and stopped loads of stuff I'm not interested in from Autostarts and LauncherPro is just as fast as under Froyo.

The Angry birds level I use for benchmarking is smooth as others have reported! The level in question is terrible in Froyo.

I do have the problem where my screen won't come on after going off during a call though so for now I'm gonna nandroid this and drop back to Froyo.

Only other issue I have is a lack of space due to the previously mentioned problem of Angry Birds needing to be on the internal memory. Everlands and Galcon also fall into that category.

I seriously like the way this is headed. :D Good job devs. :D

Now is just wait, they are work hard, don´confuse right now, taker easy.

I know, all we want is a official blade CyanogenMod, the moment is great, the nightly builds is not important right now.

I wonder why it's so much faster?

I wonder if it's AOSP related, the Cyanogen optimisations or Gingerbread is generally just faster.

It'd be interesting to know the breakdown. I could believe it's the way this is probably a more efficient build, and we're relying on an AOSP base, not ZTE's hacked together...thing.

[Guest targetbsp]

Quadrant was scoring 770-850 (it was varying wildly between tests so I guess I had something still running in the background!) against a Froyo score of 440 but of course the Stagefright issues in 2.2 have made Quadrant scores hard to swallow.

Angry Birds was the only thing I had installed that has some slow parts on the phone. All my other stuff ran fast anyway so Angry Birds was the only comparison I really had. Was a lot better though as I and others have said.

But yeah, I too am wondering whether it's gingerbread or cyanogens optimisations that are responsible for the improvement.

[Guest xenopod]

i cannot resist this now, come kids time for bed put the laptop away. it will be there in the morning hehehehe

[Guest Flumpster]

I can add to this by saying every game I have tested that was demanding now runs a lot smoother in this.

If you thought Angry Birds lagged before then you should have tried Fruit Ninja. When 5 thing were on screen at once it was like watching a slide show.. lol. This rom plays it smooth, not quite as smooth as the iphone version but not far off now. Totally playable.

Shift used to have occasional stutters on previous roms, seems smooth now.

As said above Angry Birds is now great.

That's all the demanding games I have really but all of them are far better on this rom than any other.

Forgot to mention earlier. When I went to install them games to test I soon ran out of space and couldn't get Shift on. Moving all the games to SD resulted in all of them not working as mentioned in above posts. I checked cyanogen and see that they don't support the old Ext partition way of doing things so looked for an easy option to get them back onto the SD.

Found this. https://market.android.com/details?id=ru.krikun.simple2ext

Works a treat. All the apps back in the ext3 partition where they belong and working :D

This is for Cyanogen 7 only and he says you need an ext3 (mine was ext2 before but soon changed)

HTH

I just flashed DarkTremor script. Works fine and on ext2. I wouldn't want a journaled filesystem (ext3) on my SD..

To be fair I'd much prefer apps2sd on YAFFS2 or JFFS2

BTW will this be where to go for nightly downloads?
