Okay, so I just flashed today's (10/12/2011) nightly update of Cyanogenmod 7 (or CM7DX) and I noticed that the vast majority of my videos won't play no matter which play I use. At first I thought it was just a glitch in the 3D Galley, but then I came to find out that none of the players I downloaded would play my vids. Is this one of the normal CM7DX glitches? Or are my video files corrupted? Please help, thanks!
Btw, I would flash back to my last stock rom, but my phone is currently on the charger here at work. Lol.
Its one of the problems CM7 has. The camera ans Youtube also will not work.
Camera and YouTube work when the fix is flashed. I believe that CyanogenMod can't play videos taken with the blur video camera.

You need to try CM4DX GB (DroidX CM7.1 with Gingerbread Kernel). All of the above issues are working out of the box, no additional fixes needed! I use this as my daily driver, very stable...
You can find the thread over at RootzWiki, the dev is RevNumbers.
From his thread:
Until I get my personal life straightened out, only builds with notable changes will be posted here.
You can always find the latest builds in ROM Toolbox available on the market
until they update the toolbox to work correctly with the latest versions of CWR, you can download the rom in the toolbox then manually install the zip found in /sdcard/romtoolbox/downloads/RevNumbers/

I upgraded CM 6 to CM6.1 RC2 and everything went smooth, except when you turn the nexus one on there is no market or gmail from google as if they some how are no longer part of the phone.
When I upgraded I did it from the phone itself so when i was ask if i wanted google add on I click yes and once it went to the booting process and the new CM6.1 RC2 was running I could not find the market or my contacts I could not sync my phone to the google server...why?
Hum.....read the thread and find the link to Google apps. You will then need to flash Google apps on top of your CM6 ROM.
I know sometimes the Google apks fail to download in ROM manager.
So should i download the CM 6.1 RC2 from the phone since i have the ROM manager and not get the google add on and download it from a PC, save it to da sd card n then do it manually?...please explain...thank you!

Download them both from the pc to sdcard .. then flash in recovery .. cm first then add ons
I just went to cyanogenmod website n i guess i was not da only one with this problem!...apperently you can no longer download CM 6.1 RC2 because not having android market or gmail...please if someone can help develop this ROM correctly...thank you!

Uh, I have no idea what you're talking about. CM6.1 RC2 is still available for download. If you still have it loaded, grab the GAPPS package from the wiki (link below) and flash it over your current ROM (no need to wipe first) to get the Market, Gmail, etc... back.
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Passion:Installing_CyanogenMod
I notice if you go to cyanogenmod website and click on downloads and then experimental and you see CM6.1 RC2 and if you click on it it says you can not download it anymore because it was reported as broken because not having Market or gmail.
On the same website if you go to forums and then see nexus one it will give you a link to download it from the links they have on that forum....so my question is which one is really true?
any ideas?
Considering I'm running CM6.1 RC2 with everything working perfectly, I'd say it's not a problem with the build....
Edit: I just checked the page - you can actually still download the zip. Someone just reported the file as broken, but that isn't a note from the devs (they have better grammar).
CM Roms haven't included Google apps in a long time.
Google asked that their programs weren't included because they are copyrighted material. Android being open, you can still download the GAPPS (Google Apps) pack and flash over CM's latest.
This has been the method as long as I've been on Android.
I got downloaded it from your xda website and it works!!!...now can someone tell me what is the mayor changes from CM6.0 and CM6.1 RC2? the only thing I can notice is the fm radio...anybody can tell me what also is good with this ROM?
By the way....I love cyanogenmod!!...much better than the stock one!...Keep up with the good work developers!
Anybody has some input as what is da mayor change between CM 6.0 and CM6.1 RC2?...i want to explore my new ROM....any ideas where should i start?

You could do a little Google'ing and find out...maybe a search for "CyanogenMod Changelog"?
Here, I did the hard work for you:
https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_vendor_cyanogen/blob/froyo/CHANGELOG.mkdn
Ooo let me be another canadian to google that for you !
See the link below
http://tinyurl.com/2un6vvo
Look at the change log. Lots of differences.
I'm posting this here because I can't post in the devlopers forum. I first installed Libery 1.5 from stock, the music player and anything to do with video files don't work. Music player says it can not play the file type, camcorder youtube ect. all force close. I tryed Multiple different ROM links for liberty 1.5 and couldn't get them to work. I just tryed fission 2.6 and same thing.
These things did work with my stock phone so please help. Can't imagine all of these ROM's all have the same glitch.
Sounds like you're not on the latest software. Are you on .340?

I don't think he is. I helped him get root and we flashed Librerty 1.5. I noticed it may be a kernel issue, as some other people have posted having errors with the music files. Is there a way to get him on the latest software? .. excuse me for not knowing, i use a different handset.
*EDIT* wiped data/factory reset and cleared caches.. installed a different ROM and all seems to be working correctly.
I loaded Dark Slide 3.2.1 now it all works fine. don't know but Dark slide is pretty sick I think I'll stick with it.
*WARNING* The leaked Gingerbread Radio, which is required for this rom, has been known to brick some Thunderbolts. Be sure you're aware of the risks of flashing this software by visiting this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1096104 *WARNING*
*NOTE* There is a new GB radio out now at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1115714 *NOTE*
Standard disclaimer:
While no Custom Rom can ever claim to be completely safe, and the very act of rooting your phone voids your warranty, I do my best to make sure that any Rom I release is fully tested. That said, if something does go wrong I am not responsible for loss of time/money/data/sanity/limbs/life that results directly or indirectly from the use of this Rom. Please enjoy responsibly.
This requires the leaked Gingerbread radio and a Gingerbread kernel, which can be found here:
Radio: http://www.multiupload.com/HU471CMQI0 (thanks Adrynalyn) Download this and rename it to PG05IMG.zip and put it on the root of your sdcard, then reboot your phone to the bootloader and apply it.
Kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1086518 (Thanks Imoseyon) Download your choice of kernel from the SENSE GB section.
First I'd like to say thanks to Adrynalyn, ThatDudeButch and Trident for making most of the following patches easily available, and a huge thanks to JCase (TeamANDIRC) for the leak:
Features:
Wake on Volume (thanks TeamBAMF)
Netflix Support (thanks rmk)
Removed recent apps from pulldown (thanks rbox)
Power options (thanks ThatDudeButch)
AOSP Lockscreen
Deodexed, Rooted, Mostly stock framework.
Very clean Rom (149MB base vs ~300MB for most others)
This is a stock experience rom, with all the bloat (and most of the stock apps) removed. If you haven't used Blackhole before the idea is to start with an almost blank slate (except for the stuff that's too intertwined to remove, or provides basic functionality) and add only the things that you want.
What apps I left in are stock (Browser, Gmail, Calendar, Phone, etc.) plus a few "essentials" (Superuser and Rom Manager).
Updates will begin being available in Rom Manager on Wednesday following the public release of the Rom, but in the meantime if you have apps you need added please let me know and I'll make an update.zip for you that will add whatever you need. Enjoy! And be glad that unlike some developers I didn't have the urge to put "Ginger" in the Rom name, or else you'd have ended up with "BlackGinger" or "GingerHole" neither of which is very appealing...
Download:
Available via Rom Manager, so you can choose your options while downloading.
Screenies ?
Any chance of AOSP contacts/dialer, MMS, gallery, and browser? Going to give this a go when I get home tonight. Heck, might even flash it at work.
EDIT: Nevermind....just saw that almost all of this is already included. Awesome work! I'm downloading now and going to try it out.
IRS421: I'll post some up later the afternoon/evening
litso: Dialer/contacts and Browser are a work in progress. When I find/make one that works I'll add it to the options.
sorry if i missed the screen shot links...
please make them more blatant?
+1 for AOSP Contacts, please

Seeing as he links to the new radio in the OP I'm guessing it's probably ok. Still subject to the same issues people are experiencing on other ROMs though.
Thanks for the reply litso, I didn't have time to get on last night. Yes, both leaked radio's work the same with Blackhole as with any other GB leak Rom. I'm uploading some screenshots now as well, don't expect too much tho, it's a vanilla theme. For the screenshots I'm running Launcherpro.
I vote ya call it BlackGingerHole
Getting FCs from Google Music (the new one).
I chose to have it installed with the ROM, but this morning when I went to play a track, I got an FC. I rebooted, still FC. I ".bak'd" the .apk from /system/app and installed the Market version. Now I'm getting periodic FCs on the music process, and instant FC if I try to open the app.
Sync Music was added to my Google Account settings.
Ideas?

Thanks for the report, I'll see what's up.
Also I've got my screenshots sorted, they're up in the OP. Like I said, nothing special about how it looks....
I installed it also after a clean wipe and used sense launcher and now my launcher looks ****ed up. Rebooted to see if that would fix but no luck

I've duplicated the sense issue, though i'm not sure what the issue is at the moment. I've removed it from the list of options until I get it fixed. Thank you for the report.
So far i've been unable to duplicate the issue with google music, could you please provide me with a logcat of the crash? Is anyone else experiencing this issue?
I've tried flashing several boot animations from ROM Manger, but I always end up with the AOSP Android animation. Any idea's why this might happen?
Sure the battery have percentages in the status bar icon?
also, its there a way to get r rid of the quick settings on the dropdown and have the power mod toggles?

I'll give it a whirl. Do you have the gmusic online service? I do, just wondering if that might be why you're not getting an FC.

Big big fan of stripped down ROMs. Currently downloading. Love the download options. I'll post my results.
Any CM7 users got it working? Seems to be broken but I can't establish whether this was due to the app being updated or a side effect of the latest ICS builds.
Many users on the Market were moaning about Spectral Souls not working since one or other update, but comments suggest that the latest version is now working. Unfortunately for me I'm still getting force closes as soon as I launch the app.
Any ideas?
I flashed MIUI and now it goes "This app is not available for your country." =( Help thx
I just reverted back to my Nandroid backup of the pre-ICS build of CM7 and now the game seems to work fine. Updated with the latest version on the App Store.
To be honest I much prefer the older version of CM7 as the ICS builds seem to be as laggy as the old stock Froyo ROM.

After many hours of reading posts, installing different roms, installing all the flash apk's floating around the forums and trying every available browser, I decided to post here. I have not been able to get flash player to work at all with 4.2 on any custom rom. Every browser I have tried has crashed. I have been at this game for several years, so I have jumped through all the hoops, fixing permissions, fresh installs, etc... My question is, has anybody else had this experience? I am not really looking for testimonials of it working for people right out of the gate, because obviously it is by the lack of postings on this issue. If you fall into the category of struggling with flash on 4.2 and found a combination that finally works, please pass that info on. Thanks and have a great day.
Flash on 4.2
I don't know about on a custom ROM, but this browser plays flash on stock 4.2 with a custom kernel
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/52089051/HoloWeb.apk
Worked out of the box for me.
Hi OP,
I am facing exactly the same problem as you. Mine is a Nexus 7 3g model running on android 4.2 which I got yesterday. I have also try installing every possible flash apk that i can find...tried on alot of browser. Firefox beta, boat browser, dolphin version 8 to 9, holu as recommended by the post above. None can get to work. Its either the browser crash or some can't even display any flash plugin.
Did Google did any modifications to 4.2 that prevent flash from working?? If anybody has solve the problem please share your solution. I am also not a newbie to rooting and custom Roms as my mobile is galaxy s2 and is rooted with custom ROM. Just that I tot nexus 7 can install flash without Going through that. By as the op indicates, even that did not help him.
Thanks for any help in advance!!

Thanks for the reply. I was really not wanting to go the stock route unless necessary. I will tuck the download away and use if need be. Thanks for the response.
Flash is working but only for really small videos.
When it comes to bigger videos or apps it freezes the browser.(Both with Custom and normal kernel)

I tried that combination, didn't experiment with any other kernel but the one built into the rom. I don't know, hard to imagine it being a hardware issue with my device.

Use the AOSP stock browser mainly, but tried boat, xscope and others that I have had success with on 4.1.2. I will try adfree with a fresh install and see what happens. Thanks.
Same problem here. It's working with some flash but definitely not all. Even the one on adobe website that checking whether flash is installed make browser crashed. ><
Hope to find solution too.
If you have flash can you watch hulu without a plus subscription?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Well, only solution I've found for now.
Use Firefox for android. It's only browser I've found working with almost all flash.
If you'd still prefer other browser as default, just switch off flash/plugin option in that browser to "on demand" (not always).
Then download Flashify from playstore, it helps share link to other browser with ease.
I use AOSP as my default browser, when I browse to a page with flash and I want to see, just share it to Firefox via Flashify.
That's my solution for now, hope this help.
Hi guys,
Seems like there is a mixture of success and failure of getting flash working on Android 4.2.
Care to share what device you are using be it success or failure?
I still can't get mine to work.
Nexus 7 (3G Model)
Stock condition: Andriod 4.2
I even come across a thread where after he did a factory reset the flash got working. I did my factory reset...still no luck.
Well, I'll share my detail.
Nexus 7 wifi model 32GB
Stock JB 4.2 Rooted
Flash player 11.1.115.27 (Try other version - same result)
Flash working on Firefox for android only, no other browsers.
Should I try factory reset then ?
I have it on my 32GB Wi-Fi. 4.2

Sorry, flash was too choppy for me with Firefox on 4.2. I reverted back to 4.1.2 until things get ironed out with possible updates or a solid solution.
