[ROM] [BETA] CyanogenMod 7 for the Droid X

[PARick]

just flashed #50 (they seemed to have skipped 49?). Torch still broke, but 1% works of course, mms works of course. Forgot to check camera before I flashed razor's all in one zip. Otherwise, seems perfectly fine so far

Camera works, youtube does not, so razor's all in one is still required.

All I saw in the changelog was some stuff about battery.. Got excited.. Guess it's just a text output confirming wipe stats went Ok...
Still have yet to download it...

I know everyone's phone functions differently on the same ROM, but.....I was wondering if anyone else has the same issue as me. My battery life is getting worse with each subsequent nightly, or so it seems. My battery performed best at build 34. I flash each nightly in hopes that the battery life increases, but it only seems to decrease. At 34, I had about 8% decrease per hour with light to moderate use. I noticed build 50 is about 13% per hour. Anyone else?

I'm downloading it now. I'll see how it goes.

Do a clean install, you will be amazed. i have about 4 and half hours on my phone so far today. Down to 72% with heavy heavy use. I was running 48 for the first 2 hours, that's when i downloaded 50 over wifi, backed up all my apps and data with mybackup pro, then did a complete rom backup. Then cleared data/cache/delvic and installed 50, google apps, and .12p radio. Once that was up i downloaded all my bought apps from the market. Then restored all my data/ apps from mybackup pro. Just got done fine tuning and deleting some stuff i didn't need.

Now its running great, still need to use the all in 1 fix tho. Still need to calibrate the battery to.

Forgot to mention, my phones been running off wifi for the past 3 hours with no service.

So quick question, under Settings -> Moblie network settings. There is an option called
"National data roaming"
by default its unchecked, have you ever tried checking it to see if it shows improvement for your 3g?

 

[ldopa]

I keep it unchecked. Not sure how much it would improve signal strength. I also change the system select mode to home instead of auto (I heard it can help save battery, but I'm not sure)

Don't think you can access it any longer. Are you trying to change the vocorder?

CM74D2

I'm trying to change some settings, hopefully to make it look for a different tower.

The camera will never be as good as the default since its based on Blur software.

I was on MIUI for awhile and really like the music player. So much better than the other ones. I copied the apk, but everytime I go to install it, it fails. I also deleted the AOSP one and that didn't work either. Anybody know how I can get it to work?

Mine was also unchecked by default. I was traveling 2 weeks ago and was out in the country where there was no 3G access. In that case, 1x wouldn't come on (so I had no connectivity at all). It got me thinking and I realized that I never saw 1x in the status bar since installing CM - it's always 3G, WiFi or nothing.

I thought it was odd. I rebooted the phone, still no 3G or 1x. I went into settings, checked that international roaming option and (BAM!) I got a 1x signal. Disabled it and 1x went away (no signal). After a few tests I confirmed that this option being unchecked prevents 1x on the Droid X for whatever reason (intentional or not).

I just leave mine checked since I very rarely travel out of the country and I get 1x any time 3G isn't available.

Has anyone else seen 1x with this option unchecked?

 

[ldopa]

My 1x has always been there and I kept it unchecked. This is just my experience.

On another note, the throttle hack I have has dx in its name. Is it only for the dx or will it work on my d2?

I couldn't get the throttle zip to flash. I tried 2 files. They both made my phone stick on the CW install screen requiring a battery pull

Doesn't seem like cm7 is getting any better still same issues. It does get smoother with each nightly but issues people keep bring up aren't fixed the all in one fix might as well be built in since there probably won't be a camera or camcorder fix from the dev anytime soon.
