fxp046 brings vibration, bluetooth and wifi back
could someone that's has updated should say something? camera stills hangs?

I'm using 046 with doomkernel right now and its running great! Everything works the only thing I've noticed is that when you turn on bluetooth with wifi it just errors out so it'll probably be fixed when doom releases a new kernel

Yes the bt problem is known about he is making a new kernel to fix the issus im just wanting to get a fix on the touch pads then ill be as happy as a pig in sh*t
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19376992&postcount=41

Has anyone flashed 046 with the original kernel? does touchpads work ie dead space etc???

I did a first time install of 7.2.0 yesterday using the supplied kernel (as Doomlord is stil working on an optimal one). I'll report back with findings once an update to that is released.

The latest nightly changelog suggests ICS is st starting to be merged

Okay but what does it exacty mean? I mean in the changelog.

Its hard to say I don't think it will be long giving how long it took them to code gingerbread to my nexus one

keep folowing the changelog, they're doing a great job!
i saw they've started to merge ICS stuff, by that mean the CM7 will become CM9 if they'll merge the ICS source code?

They may be merging ICS source with CM source, but they won't be releasing it for devices for quite some time. I expect the first nightlies to be around January / February time

I still don't understand the difference between the nightlies and the progress the team free xperia makes here in the boards with their FXP0xx releases :/
Which one is better / more up to date ?
Thanks,

The nightlies are compiled everyday and contain any additions to git from that day. The FXP releases are usually around a weekly release cycle.
The nightlies contain more recent code changes so are "more up to date", but you run the risk of using not fully tested code and so may be buggy (I've encountered a boot-loop with CM nightlies before, so fresh backups are needed).
There is no "better" version, just whichever you prefer.

[Q] Which version to install on my wildfire?

Which version to install on my wildfire?the latest version or 2.3.3?thanks (most stable and fully functional)

The wildfire only goes to 2.2 officialy. CM7 latest build has 2.3.7 and its stable (not including nightlies)

Is that version in stable or night mod?and can can you explain what nightlies is?

Nightlies, from what I know, is a build that they release every night and some times is really buggy but you get the occasional one that is stable. I just stick with the stable releases not the nightlies. Um there is a stable release out.
Here's the link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1143125
Also the easy way to install it is to use rom manager and make sure you do nandroid backup before you install any roms

Sorry to contradict you but the nightlies in my opinion are just as stable as the stable version, you see a lot of the bugs you may read about in various threads are through user error not the actual rom itself. And been able to use new features long before they are released in a stable version far outweighs the amount of bugs.
I've been on nightlies for about 4 months and only ever had 1 bug, the camera wouldn't work a couple of days ago but Arco already knew why and it was fixed the next day!

All the nightlies I've tried have been stable, I know they had problems in the early stages with bootloops etc but I've been on them since about nightly 100 and never had any major issues apart from my own stupidity.
There is a changelog knocking about somewhere. I'll see if I can find the link later.

[CM7/CM9] kangaroo

It's been a long time since there was an official build. I think I will share my build for now until the build infra is running again.
Do NOT report any issue in the main CM nightly thread. You have been warned!
You can however report issues here, and pray somebody will listen to them.
http://nethq.org/cmsgs/
Again, you have been warned!
FAQ
Q. What does the test folder mean?
A. It will be unofficial builds with additional commits from developers which are not yet approved to go into CM. There is probably a good reason why it didnt get merged yet, so you are warned!
Q. Is this build faster than latest nightly?
A. This build is fast, but probably not faster than latest nightly
Q. Is battery life better then latest nightly?
A. This build battery life is good, but probably not better than latest nightly
Q. What does updated WIFI driver do?
A. Nothing, I removed it.
Q. What has been added/changed since last build?
A. Check Changelog for latest changes.
Q. Can i flash this over my currently nightly?
A. Yes you can flash this over a nightly just like you do with another nightly
Q. Where did the KANG go?
A. It got replaced by UNOFFICIAL to prevent misunderstanding.

Thanks a lot! I think this should become the place to share our Kang builds with the rest of the world.
Taptalked u see

Thanks i was about to make one myself but wasnt sure if the trouble to do it would worth the effort ^^U
Anyways now i wonder if it would be a good idea to install this not knowing the user that made it XD. Waiting for reviews... xD
Downloaded anyways, thanks.

Probably better to have 2 places, one to discus how to build a KANG, and one (this one) to discus posted KANGS. Both have different audiences, people who like to build and people who like to flash.

Agreed, ignore my previous post

Hi, what are the differences between this and a cm7 nightly?
Can I flash this over nightly 181?
Thanks in advance

It is updated until the 8th of December. Safe to flash over 181, just another update plus an addon as stated in the op (updated wifi driver from zach).
Basically it contains almost all changes from the changelog for nightlies..
Taptalked u see

Ok thanks. I installed it, it works pretty well, but still has got a bug present in nightly 181... The fade effect when you unlock the lockscreen is not present. Could you try to fix it? Thanks!

It uses the same sources as CM7, and it uses the same build process.
The only thing different is the updated WIFI driver which zach and fugumod uses, and of course the recent changes which are not inside the latest nightly's.
So you can assume the following:
* This build is fast, but probably not faster than latest nightly 181
* This build battery life is good, but probably not better than latest nightly 181
* Maybe the WIFI signal could be better, but you will have to find that our yourself.
* Check Changelog for latest changes compared to latest nightly 181
* Yes you can flash this over a nightly just like you do with another nightly
Enjoy

What are the nightlies at here? Are they the newest updates of CM7.2 - RC1?

Hi folks,
Im sorry that this is a silly question, but I have been attempting to look for the next update of CM7.2-RC1 since 14-Mar at here:
http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=olympus
But I saw only the ninghtly versions that show as CM7 (not CM7.2, I mean)
Because that they were added into the same download link with the CM7.2-RC1, so I am wondering whether they are the newest updates of it, I mean the 19-Apr and the 21-Apr releases?
Please excuse me if this is a repeated question as somwhere. Many thanks in advance.

Thanks, but your reply does not make me be clear. I know that is the latest update of nightly series. But my question is, whether that 21-Apr nightly is the latest update of CM7.2-RC1?
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium

In other words, my question is: Have been there the CM7.2-RC2, RC3, RC4...yet? And where is the official link I can check for the newest update of CM7.2 series? Thank you all in advance again.
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium

The nightly is the latest version. No need to check further. I guess if you don't want to take my work for it, you can always check github for the latest changes.

That's the latest RC. Nightlies are the the only "most up to date" roms, but they aren't release candidates.
Edit: actually, RC2 is the latest I think. I'm searching on my phone so its kinda hard to find.

Double post sorry

WTF? There is no RC2 yet. RC1 is the latest "stable" release, and the nightlies are unstable snapshots from those dates with updates to RC1.

Thank you. So RC2 is not released yet and we just wait for it in short time, right? At meanwhile, I see that the nightly 21-Apr in the link on post #1 showed as CM7 instead of CM7.2. So could you advise me about this? How is this version comparing to the CM7.2-RC1?
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium

What are you waiting for? RC1 is the Stable Release. There is probably no more development for CM7 on the Atrix. RC1 is very stable and fully functional. I think you even have fingerprint thanks to the Atrix team.
If you want something different, there are some CM7 variants such as MIUI, Ligux and Mokee.
All development now is in ICS which is basically waiting on Moto to release ICS drivers and kernels. Until then you will not have a fully functioning ROM although the devs have done some awesome work with what they have.
Enjoy CM7 as it is a great ROM for the Atrix.

I am running Morrisoft Gen V0.9 based on CM7 nightly April 9th 2012. It is fast and smooth. I have not experienced any bugs yet. You can give it a try.

edited for dumb question removal. lol

The CM7 nightly released 4-21 (20120420) is more stable than the RC1 so far.
the RC1 fingerlock would stop working if you unselected usb debugging and you would be totally locked out unless you rewiped. It also would constantly random reboot as well as reboot on incoming calls.
The latest nightly so far fixed all that. Yeah I wish there was a newer official release but i guess they are going to CM9 now. But like the e07015 said, moto has not released the drivers and kernels for ics so there wont be any official CM9 release anytime soon. :/
I'm fine with cm7 if it stays stable, crossing my finger. Its WAYYYYY faster and better than motoblurSUCK!

CM7.2.0 RC2 released May 10. http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=olympus

CM 7 nightlies ,UPDATED weekly

I know this is a development forum,but I wanted to raise attention for the new build of CM 7 with continuous update,I like the CM 9.10 work here but I think they need more work to be ready for daily use.
so I strongly recommend the new CM 7
download:
http://get.cm/?device=legend

Any important changelog? The last 7.2 stable is quite stable

http://changelog.bbqdroid.org/#legend/cm7/next
but it is till 15/11

I am using the nightlies for some time now, from http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?type=nightly&device=legend. However, I was wondering what the changes in the last nightly are, filesize is different from previous,but changelog says No changes.
Anybody knows?

Last nightly from March 1st, it's no longer building them?

There's really no more point in CM7 nightlies if no more features are going to be announced and added to CM7 legacy devices. Unfortunately, users of these devices are content with CM7 as they are or else they'd buy a more powerful device, given how it's >3 years old.
I guess the nightlies until March were meant as flexibility to those unable to run the CM7 stable series.
As much as I'd hate to say it, if you want more out of Android and custom ROMs, I guess you're going to have to upgrade.
