DID YA HEAR THE NEWS? Vibrant CM7 is now (almost, mostly, certainly) STABLE!!!

The first release candidate version of cm7 for the vibrant is now out, check out the rom thread here: http://bit.ly/jro3pH. Flashy, flashy, flash! If you're as stoked as I am, say so below.

I'm stoked? Does the gps work? That's all that matters and battery life .

****, I think ur right, if this isn't what I think it is then I'll request the thread be deleted by a moderator. If this isn't stable then it should be deleted, but if it is then yay! I was just so excited by the possibility of a fully stable CM7 rom, my impatience got the best of me I think .

It depends on what your definition of stable is.
For some stable is good battery and gps.
For others just how fast and appearance.

It's good news. Don't mind negative nancy. This signifies that we are one step closer to perfection.

GPS? That's a good one, what do you think? Just messin', but to be honest I don't know, but I would guess no. On the battery life, I would guess yes. The GPS on my vibrant sucked on the stock rom anyway, so I gave up on the featuee looooong ago.

Battery life is bad as always...or so i heard in the thread. Might try it later, but definitely not staying on it. Battery life is too important for me.

For me stable is when finished restoring my apps in cm7 or miui it doesn't say "process gapps.framework.com has stopped unexpectedly "

If you have been keeping up with the nightlies at all, this is not a major change from Nightly 36. However, the devs (especially atinm) have been hard at work trying to hammer out issues like bluetooth and the mute/unmute bug in order to push this over to RC, and soon (hopefully) stable. That being said, GPS is still not functioning, and battery life on the stock kernel is quite poor by my standards (I've gotten 8-10 hours max on light to medium usage). From a usability standpoint, it is quite operable and quick, however. On a fresh install I have gotten no force closes. In that way the ROM itself is quite stable. Several features are just not fully functional yet.

then don't restore from a 2.2 ROM.

Not everyone has bad battery problems with this! i sure dont and If u had read the CM7 threads u would see that This is as stable as its gonna get without further gingerbread source leak. The mute/unmute problem has been fixed from i have read, But there is no gps But its sure stable enough for most people as a daily driver.

I have the same problem w/ CM7 as I do with the rest of the non-stock roms. I lost data within 24 hrs of flashing. There seems to be an issue with some phones and maintaining data after rooting go figure.

My cm7 is just fine. I don't use GPS do that doesn't bother me. I get about 7 hours of medium-heavy usage, which is just fine for me. Cm7 shows how much of a beast our device is. I have no Oc and I get 2011 on quadrant. When I did overclock to 1.6 I got 2908. I get no problems though.

Not everyone has battery problems because not everyone has ever gotten "good" battery life.
For those of us who have gotten battery life in the I-only-need-to-charge-ever-two-days range, the battery life in CM7 (most recent I've used is #36) is horrendous.

Not very scientific i know but here goes, Had been using CM7 and would get a full days use (unplugged at midnight and plugged back in about 21:00) with approx 40% battery left on an average day with HydrOG3n unplugged as normal fairly normal usage and had 60% left at end of day. Typical usage involves checking twitter periodically throughout the day, a bit of gaming (15-20 mins) some ebook reading (<60 minutes) checking facebook once or twice and a bit of web surfing (45-60 mins over the day) odd texts and two to three short phone calls (less than 10 minutes total) and a bit of foursquare with GPS on, I leave wireless on all day although I'm normally only attached at home, obviously your mileage may vary. I Have tried other ROMs specifically Miui, LeeDroid and AHRD but I hate SENSE and didn't get on with any of them so cant give any definitive comment on Battery life.

i recommend android revolution too
it's keep the original UI, and make a lot of tweaks to make your phone run smoothly

arhd is the best!

Miui is quite brilliant and awesome as well as cm7. And they use eclair or froyo BL. So that's a plus
sent from SGS Captivate 2.3.4 with CM7 or MIUI using Escapist or TKglitch

MIUI or CM7

I'm using LeeDrOiD HD myself and I'm very happy with it. So smooth and no issues (for me at least, some are experiencing battery drain with wifi on, but for me, it's at about 2-5 mA in standby). Great "community" around it, lots of support, great battery life. On a normal day, I usually have the screen on for about 2-3 hours (moderate use I'd say) and disconnected from charger for about 18 hours. That leaves me with about 50% battery when I go to bed.
I'm very satisfied

Another vote for LeeDroid. Great ROM, great support and great bloke!

TB Fusion 1.4 + unity v3 kernel by far the best for me
Sent from my Desire HD using Tapatalk

I've tried ARHD, RCMixHD and LeeDroid, but have settled on Virtuous Unity. I run it with Juice Defender and now charge the battery every other day or even longer rather than every night! I run gmail and my work outlook exchange activesync on push settings, background data updates on facebook and play cut the rope a bit! Best Sense rom I reckon, especially if you want Sense 3. Activesync used to drain the battery like a vampire on the other roms, no problem with Virtuous Unity.
Also my wife has a DHD on stock UK rom and this is the first one that beats her for battery. Put juice defender on her's too, but mine is faster with the o/c daemon and looks much better. Can't persuade her to let me root and flash her for some reason, perhaps I should tell her I mean her phone

Can not compare to other ROMs, but ARHD is just awesome! Looks like stock ROM but feels a lot more smooth.

I like/use CM7

I use Leedroid. I looked for a clean, lean, fast and smooth ROM and found it in LeeDroid's rom. Works perfect with the sense 3 lockscreen, too (the combination of lockscreen and my own app, AppGrouper, make for the fastest applaunching experience I know of since the old PalmPilot days ).

Beatmod gingersense, speedy, clean great battery life. Looks good, sense 3.0 lockscreen aswell, best rom I've tried yet. Yet to try leedroid will have to check it out.

Synergy battery life

Not sure if this is in the right place for this info or not. But...I flashed myns synergy rom a couple of weeks ago and have been getting decent battery life. Today my battery life is blowing me away. Going on 11 1/2 hours since being unppugged with my normal usage. Not heavy use by any means but moderate at least. I have never seen this kind of battery life on any other rom I have flashed. Any other synergy users seeing good battery life?

Yes, from what I have read, you have to use the kernel that comes with the rom.

Hopefully Netarchy will develop one that will work with this type of rom and we will be saved.

I tried that for a bit over the weekend...but there was something I did not like about it...cant remember now. I will have a go with it again to verify.
At the end of the day...we can develop superb ROMS that have flashy flashes, but if the battery/components cant take it, then we are still at a stand still.

my battery life is good most of the time, but it seems there are periods where it drops quickly. i think it drops when the market alerts me about updates to my apps. both times i've had quick drops, the market has been the top app draining the battery and has a notification of updates. i don't see an option to turn of notifications is this updated version.

No but the netarchy kernel I use works just fine with my King's Alliance GB. It's all in the UNIVERSAL kernel, I should say

I usually get 24 hours up time and 3 hours awake before I've got to pop in a charged battery. Normally change out at 20% to keep it from going dead on me when I need it most.

The battery you get is all dependent on how you use the Phone, if you are a heavy user you can't expect 2 days out of the battery, lite users can manage a day or more. Personally I'm loving MIUI now, I listen to music, maybe some games, phone calls, internet[4g], etc and I can mange 1 day if I try. I couldn't really kill it in under 8hrs if I wanted to. After you flash a ROM, you should try this...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11803458&postcount=10

RoyalGinger has amazing battery life. Just make sure to calibrate your battery after flashing and give it a couple days to "settle". I have gone 36 hours with moderate use and wi-fi on nearly all the time without charging. There have been people that went much longer.

GenerationX is the best.

Yea I calibrate all the time and royals been good. I'd say I'm a pretty heavy user mainly texting like all day long some music SN games. Yesterday I only got 9 hours 27 mins on royal Ginger once I went up to 17 hours. I was just curious cause I see so many ppl posting screen shots of ridiculous battery life that I can't even get close too on the same roms. Like 3.0 roms lasts me like 6 hours n I'll deff try that Rom then thanks

GenerationX wishes it was RoyalGinger...Used it for 10 minutes and had to go back.

also consider there has been some reports of excessive battery drain caused by the tmo service itself before counting out any specific ROM. supposedly tmo is working on the issues. i really like the new VU but AOSP ROMs feel so clean, hard to choose. maybe i should just get a second phone

If you want to try out a different kernel for better battery life, flash one of faux's. He is pretty focused on battery life. demonspeed kernels from Thederekjay are pretty sweet too. They can be used with royalginger and cm7 post night91 or 92.

I agree, Faux and thederekjay make some kick ass kernels. youll also have to tweak the rom to your likings for better battery life (ex. disabling haptic feedback, lowering screen timeout, syncing, etc...) theres also an app called Watchdog task manager and it notifies you of "rogue apps" that consume too much power. give it a shot

Yea Generation X im running v5 its pretty sick i like the way everything flips n stuff and i love the Demonspeed kernel its sick love all the govenors n the fact that i can underclock when screen is off below 245 thats pretty sick but atm generation x is only lasting me bout 8 to 9 hours its a possibility that its the actuall tmo service but i never really had this issue before when Cm7 first came out i was in love lasted me up 17 hours which is alot for me considering im on it all day long for business and all but i need some change in my life be able to flash roms as much as i do stops me from buying a new phone every couple weeks lol . I think ima try the new royal ginger 3.0 but will i be able to flash the Demonspeed kernel on that one?. i really like the way everything flips and stuff when you open an app on generation X is that a setting or is that like unique to only that rom? also anyone know the difference between scary, demonspeed, minmax, and Smartass governors? kinda curious i searched it found in depth detail bout regular ones like conservative ect but i tend to lag on conservative phone takes a while to open n jump up to speed for decent performance. anyways thanks for the help and suggestion guys sorry if i ask to many questions lol

1. yes you can use the demonSPEED kernel with RG 3.0
2. the screen transitions and animations can also be used with different launchers from the market, like LauncherPro or ADW being the most popular ones. just look under "menu>launcher settings"
3. Faux and thederekjay give details for their kernels in the OP of their threads, and which governor is which:
Faux's AOSP v1.0.7 kernel
thederekjay's demonSPEED v5 kernel

Sounds like she might have 4g running all the time. Or maybe she might be updating/refreshing her background data to often. Only use 4g to down load big files or steaming vedio. Check her 4g connection and turn off or her sync rate set it to every 3 hours or more. If one or both are the culprit then she'll see a big improvement.
I run EVO Deck rom with cyanogenmod love it. And every thing works.
Hope this helps

I figured I'd chime in because you said you wanted a fully functioning ROM. CM7 and Deck had always yielded the best battery life for me with the last rev of the Savage Zen Kernel, but if you're like me and are very anal about the phrase "fully functioning" then it should be noted that the AOSP ROMs don't have 720p video recording. If that doesn't bother you than CM7 or Deck all the way.
That said i'm running TommyTomato's Classic ROM with the Freedom Agressive kernel and I'm getting 25+ hours on a charge which puts it on par with any AOSP ROM/kernel combo I've run. Might be able to get a little better on AOSP, but I'd say that's pretty damn good and it's fully functioning as in EVERYTHING works 100%.

I'm on Tommys Classic Supermagic,running the Hard to kill battery calibration script from Zepplins thread and i'm getting the best battery life i've had on any other rom and i've used this script with about 10 different roms,from AOSP to Sense 3.0,wont run 3.5 because of bugs and no 4G,after a full charge with alot of phone calls,texts and surfing,i held a charge for 4 days,it was 67% on the second day and actually died on the forth AM.

I'd definitely do a comparison between screen-on and awake time.
If you don't know this, you can access it through Settings > About Phone > Battery Use/History/Etc. See if the bar graphs of screen-on match awake. If you see a long bar under awake, but not a matching one under screen-on, you probably have a process or app that is stuck and needs to be removed/re-installed or have it's data cleared.
Note: it's normal to have some awake time that doesn't match screen on as apps/processes still have to perform there activities even with the screen-off, however, it shouldn't be a ton.
The best app out there to study this IMO is betterbatterstats. Hope this helps! Cheers!
