[ROM][GEN2]CyanogenMod 7 (Android 2.3.7)

[Guest TheDOC1]

One question regarding the cyanogenmod kernel:

Which kernel source tree is used to compile the binary "kernel" and "recovery_kernel" in "device/zte/blade" in the cyanogenmod source tree?

A link to this source tree should be provided near these binaries to comply with the GPL.

Is there no way to include the kernel sources into the cyanogenmod build process instead of a binary? That would make it easier to compile a version for GEN1 and GEN2 devices. Currently you have to swap the binary kernels.

Firmware Over-the-Air Kill

and what exactly does this do? I.e. do I need it?

You are better off posting that question there as this thread is the more or less official one handled by the CM7 Blade maintainers.

Your choice if you want GSF to update "whatever it thinks needs an update" by itself or not :)

so if i reinstall it google maps will stop trying to update to the newest version? which annoys me

or does it not go as far as the gapps?

Does everyone have the "reboot when phone is on charge" issue, or just some people?

just some people. I have never had it (nor the GPS reboots for that matter either)

[Guest yamahaxjr]

Quite many if you ask me

just some people. I have never had it (nor the GPS reboots for that matter either)

[Guest paulocostavct]

I think google have released some sort of update that prevents your OS from being rooted (specifically for 2.3), the FOTAkill prevents this, pretty sure this has nothing to do with the usb-reboot issue

Pretty sure this isn't true, and Google wouldn't do this, as the Nexus S comes rooted...

[Guest peter0118]

So now in N39 the radio is working?

[Guest Productivity]

I just want to say well done to the devs so far for all the hard work that has gone into this rom!

You're almost there, the only real hurdle left is the random shutdown/reboot issue. You can do it!

[Guest reluctant_traveller]

So now in N39 the radio is working?

See 1st post.

Specifically, the section showing the changelog for the nightly.

Specifically, the part that does not mention that the radio is fixed.

For the love of gods.

[Guest JimJam707]

I believe that the next Nightly, #40 WILL BE Gen2.

[Guest alex1alex2alex3alex4]

I believe that the next Nightly, #40 WILL BE Gen2.

It will, and I seriously hope that'll be made VERY clear,

otherwise those who don't know they have to convert

their Blade to Gen2 before applying n40 will be in deep,

deep trouble.

Have you guys checked the battery voltage after charging the phone succesfully? I was using CM7 for a while (now back to SS4) and just now remembered I once checked the voltage after a short period of charging and it said 3mV, but everything else was still ok (batteery percentage etc.) so I didn't think much about it then. Could something like this be related to the charging reboot issue, or was it just a one-timer for no obvious reason?

edit: Just to be clear, I didn't actually "charge" the phone, only transferred a couple of files with usb and didn't let the screen turn off while doing it.

After a short period of charging my blade is dead as a duck and I can't bring

up the display, which makes it somehwat difficult to check anything :)

Don't let duck fall asleep while charging :)

[Guest alex1alex2alex3alex4]

Yep, I'll keep the display awake next time I charge, my "problem" is

I only do it once a week now that these dreaded battery issues

are gone :)

No they won't, it just won't boot up...

[Guest alex1alex2alex3alex4]

No they won't, it just won't boot up...

... without knowing why

[Guest mELIANTE]

... without knowing why

Yeah, and us here will be the ones in trouble with the "oh noez iz no bootingz mai fonez!" :)

[Guest Victor von Zeppelin]

S'all right doodz, I have my BIG RED TEXT at hand. It should get the plight noticed.

+1

made me chuckle.

you'll still get people doing it. people still ask about stuff in the first post on a weekly basis (for example gapps not appearing)

they should name the first gen2 rom cm7: cm_blade_gen2_full-40.zip or something......
