CyanogenMod 7 crashes

well i don't know why this mod won't work for me..
i've tried a few of the nightlies and now the rc1, and it just kills my phone.
it installs all fine, and if i dont touch the phone its ok.. but as soon as i start to try and do anything on the phone... open the menu, or apps screen anything... after about 5secs the phone just crashes and restarts.

Flash the 4.1 kernel

You can flash 4.1 kernel from jacob thread.or instal setcpu and reduce the max freq abit

thanks Michealtbh the 4.1 defiantly worked.... from what i saw on the thread about it, is the cm7 mods (4.2?) kernal natively putting the clock at 768, cause mine does crash at that 748 seems stable. but run at 729 to be safe
Funnnny, yes that probably would of worked too by the looks of it... only problem is i couldn't get it to stay alive long enough to even install it
question.. with 4.1 installed and setcpu all up and going running at 729.. could i then now reinstall the original 4.2? kernal ???? is it better or just leave it alone?

major lag (very annoying)

I love my galaxy s but have one annoying problem with it...
When I click on the home button, it takes about a second for the screen to turn on. This is extremely annoying as you can imagine. I expect the screen to turn on from standby immediately... When it is on charge it will turn on immediately.
This problem is very noticeable... is anyone else experiencing this?

Are you running stock rom? The Samsung 2.1 and 2.2 are notoriously laggy. Get lagfix or flash a custom rom and your system will zip along

i'm on a custom rom and i've got the same problem...

I found darkys really sped my phone up that runs voodoo lagfix. Currently running CyanogenMod 7 which is still beta but I've been running it for a week with few probs (just dont install the 0312 version it unmounts your SD cards) the 0311 nightly with the bilboa kernel of the same date is good, flashed the 0317 CM7 today and that runs well.
Cm7 is super smooth and fast, try it

i'm now on miui, the fact is that this is still beta, but with CM7 it should be working really smooth and fast... maybe it's because of some wrong kernel or something, i don't know, i've got his problem since i moved on to 2.3, even when returned to 2.2.1, the lag was still there :/

Really? I've never had that problem. When things go wrong for me I usually flash stock froyo with Odin then reflash custom and all is well. You using mambos MIUI? That's not even alpha is it?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

beta 4 right now when i moved back to stock froyo it was even more laggy than bofore, i flashed miui on this froyo and the problem is still there, of course it's not as laggy as on stock JPY but i hate the fact that it is there, no matter how small it was

Seriously mate I don't think that MIUI ROM is even close. They don't have any of the source so its a bodge. Try flashing stock then flashing back to Cm7 and I'm sure you'll be fixed

Thanks for the replies guys.
I used to run Darky's all the way up to 9.3. I was happy but saw someone else's galaxy s which seemed to switch on immediately and I wanted that. So in attempt to fix it I went to the Ultimate rom... At the start it seemed to have done the trick, but now back to normal. Laggy standby turn on

yea, i know you're right, but when i first flashed miui i fell in love with that rom, for me it's perfect even with so many bugs i hope they'll deal with them soon and then i will have the most perfect of all perfect roms ever

hm that's weird for me, when i had ultimate everything was ok, but maybe if i would have it little bit longer it would be the same situation as you had

I've not tried ultimate. Darkys is solid but Cm7 feels right somehow, real gingerbread smooth and fast. I loved the MIUI music player on Darky s and would like it back on CM 7 but at present its stable enough for me. Preferred the stock Samsung camera app though. Wish we could get that in cm7
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

can't you take the camera.apk from stock and put it into the cm7? i'm not sure if it can be done but i think i might work

No I don't think cm7 will run any Samsung apps as its based on aosp and all the Samsung apps are tied to ****wiz. The devs could tell you more but I think that's why

What are you ****tin on about? MIUI is stable enough to use as an everyday rom. Most bugs are share across CM7 and MIUI as MIUI uses CM7 base. It's a closed source meaning they don't openly share the code with the public and non-MIUI developers.

So anyone know why this lag is happening? A certain app maybe? I've had it with Darkys and Ultimate...

Really? I might give it a try - but do the MIUI apps work? Last I checked they didn't. No point having MIUI without their lovely apps, is there?

Have you tried entering 3-button recovery mode to format the SD card, clear cache etc etc. Installed a particular program right after you flash? Have you changed the animation speed from slow to fast?

Most of their apps (at least in the rom) work.
You can just install on top of CM7 and then uninstall if unhappy. Just make a backup first

Will clear cache delete any of my files?

Well I will give the MIUI a go over the weekend (not risking it now need phone for work tomorrow) and see for myself. I've tried several ROM s and keep flashing back to CM 7. Just wish that we could get a new bilboa voodoo kernel for this 0317 build because it seems the best yet. I was taking photos today for work on the 0311 build and the camera was glitching like hell, downloaded the latest build and the camera was fine, there's progress right there

Should I stay on 2.5? or should I update?
I found that people says that version 2.3.5 has better sound quality and battery drain is gone.
is is true ?
thank you in advance for you assistance.

Been using V3 for a week now, so far it been great. Playing with lots of apps from the market, no fc till now and battery is decent. Try it.

Is it that different to stock 2.3.5 though? I'm running 2.3.5, tried VR3.0 and can't see any differences at all. The guys at VR don't seem able to say what benefits it has over stock, other than some VR tweaks that aren't of use to me.

Urm one major difference stock is odexed, VR is deodexed. Allows themes and mods which for most is a big plus.

I have been using Villian 3 for several months and I love it!
Only issues that I know:
Device Encryption does not work and blocks the phone (you have to come back to original stock rom to be usable, the phone cannot boot)
Touchdown app does not sync calendar (but email works so I'm fine with it)
But battery life is awesome compared to stock one, is very fast and I you like TW like I do is great cause you will get TW experience with better battery and faster

Yes, device encryption is unfortunate...
I'd not turn it down if it worked... I decided to wait until ICS, and then see if the inbuilt stuff there works. If not, I'll have to figure it out.
But at the end of the day, I wouldn't release the rom like that, for one reason. Encryption is only good if you are using a secure rom. While VR is in many respects more secure than most ROMs due to using non public platform keys, it still permits root access.
Since exchange encryption is usually enforced by your IT admin, I don't think people should be using this ROM for work purposes to connect in, given it is rooted...
With root, you can just dump the data off the running system

I'm stuck with my current ROM.

Hello,
I got an HTC Nexus One with Android version 2.4 , the OS is having lots of issues such as Camera doesn't work and everything is very slow.
Now I was trying to ROOT the cell phone with Universal Androot and it supports only v2.2 , I was wondering if anyone can recommend me a way I can get my HTC Nexus One back to v2.2 or some alternative which works on Android v2.4.
Thank you very much for helpers!
P.S.
I'm new with the whole Android system.

Android 2.4 doesn't exist

If you're new, then start reading the wiki first. Then search.

Dude... the first thing you should do is a software update. the 2.37 is good enough for almost everyone, unless you need "more"

2.3.7 isn't official, you have toi flas cm7 toi get that .i'm currently running this rom.it's fast and solid

There are many new custom ROMs available for NexusOne.
I hope your device is rooted and as you said you are new to Android, I would suggest you to have gingerbread version of MIUI i.e 2.3. Its very statble and organised.:good:
Google it.. you'll get all stuff..where to download and how to flash it to your device.

Thank you very much for all replies guys,
but seriously I did try reading from the wiki what I could but it can never end... there are so many things to read it can take me weeks so a specific answer could be great.
I was trying to flash my cell phone a new ROM although all the ROMs I tried just never worked.
I tried MIUI v4.x and it just stuck on loading screen.
I tried MIUI v2.x And it keeps loading the OS and then do a restart over and over again , like a loop.
I tried some others and nothing really worked.
Currently I'm using the restore I had before I started to try Flashing ROMs and everytime I have my phone started it shows me some lock sign and then when it loads all my other applications get opened too and it's killing the battery, even when I try killing processes they get opened again after a few minutes, not to mention my camera doesn't work too. I am really lost and quite disappointed.

like someone said... android 2.4 doesn't exist. and as far as i know, camera works in ics and jb
try downloading a passimg.zip, then put it in the root of your sd card. then boot to hboot by pressing trackball and power button, then sellect bootloader, then follow the instructions. hope this helps

Hey, that happened to me also and here's what i did.
First of all, I erased all of the apps that came with the phone (Company's app. E.G Telcel,claro,AT&T,etc).
Once i did that, i downloaded a different launcher (Go launcher EX, it's free), cuz' the one that comes with the phone simply doesn't work!.
When you do that, you can have almost 200Mb Free in RAM, so it takes away a lot of work from your device.
What i'm trying to do right now is to swap the RAM memory to the Sd card.
Hope it works!

Dont u think that changing ram to use sdcard will lower the performance? Considering higher io time?
