Has anyone looked into why that stupid gingerbread cursor positioning widget is so minuscule compared to CM7? It's now my enemy #1. Just wondering if someone's started looking into that already.
i cant download 6.3.7, rapidshare tells me download parameters invalid. can someone post a mirror please?
i dont think it will free more ram. it just frees up space on the system partition. i like to use root uninstall to remove certain system apps such as voice dialer and email cos i dont use them, and i feel its a waste of space in the app drawer.After making a clean factory reset , and with some "tweak" , now my free ram used to get over 100 mb !! This is really unexpected . What I do is using ram manager pro and set at hard gaming , then for every boot , after using advance task killer to kill running apps and service , I open camera apps , switch to camcorder , and then just exit . Again , I used task killer to kill those running apps , surprisingly , my ram is now about 110 mb .
What if I remove those included system apps such as gmail and email ? Will doing this release more ram and is it safe (not causing bootloop) ?

Hi guys,
I'm having trouble with 3G mobile hotspot..."Impossible to set a data connection", but i'm sure the apn is right, because the browser works! Any idea to fix the problem? Because it's really fundamental to have that feature for me...thankssss
Solved by installing wifi tether for root users. However, I noticed that this app, despite being much faster than 3g mobile hotspot, also consumes much more data. Is this just an impression or it is real?
Hey MZ, do you think this fix from fjfalcon for the CM7 tree would work in the CM6 tree?
https://github.com/CyanogenModXT720...mmit/e85689ccd2209c5153964b6682a42fec5b6630b9
Seems as though it was working before, but some code got merged from the main branch?
I think the things fjfalcon's been working on for tethering in CM7 are low-level enough that they should also work here. Patches are welcome--it's not something I'm pursuing at the moment.
I think hotspot isn't working, is that true? anyidea how to fix it?
Im stuck at "M" logo reboot. btw i'm using motoroi. any advice sir?
I can't install or uninstall any apps if I want to uninstall it just says computing.. but nothing happens anyone can help?
Recommended: CM 6.3.7 See post #1224
I need to update and rework this entire post, but I haven't had time yet.
The install procedure is similar to CM 6.3.0-RC3 but use the files from post #1224 and follow the additional instructions there to apply the 720p recording fix.
- initial backport of CM7 lockscreens (namelessjedi)
- power menu screenshots work
- stock Motorola Camera/Camcorder (brianlili, peshovec)
- 720p video recording (brianlili)
- improved xt720mod.sbf support
- updated gapps package
- odex and deodex versions provided (odex recommended for users)
Themes for previous versions are incompatible and must be updated.
See molohov's theme thread for compatible themes: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=24435398
Thanks:Historical old/releases
Experimental Releases:
CM 6.3.7 Post #1224
CM 6.3.6.2 Post #1143
CM 6.3.6.1 Post #1104
CM 6.3.5.3 Post #1035CM 6.3.0-RC3 Fixes camera/camcorder crashes that appeared in RC2
Because of the camera and camcorder problems with RC2, I've now rebuilt using Motorola's media libraries again. I think this restores camera. Camcorder also works now with a higher quality than before. We need to get to get a media_profiles.xml that works better for our phone. In RC3, I just took the one from milaq's A853.
Known issues in CM 6.3.0-RC3:
Changes since CM 6.1.2
- FM Radio doesn't work
- Gallery button doesn't work
- Camcorder doesn't work well
- Screenshot in power menu always produces a black image
- Android Keyboard is fixed (Thanks peshovec)
- Torch/power-widget uses autofocus led
- Linear vibration for haptic feedback vibrations <150ms
- Selecting 1% battery increments is harmless (but doesn't work)
- Wi-Fi fixes (now works for the AP I was having trouble with)
- Korean IME removed (can provide as update if needed)
- USB menu has been updated with new translations and resource fixes (Usb.apk)
- Reboot recovery from the power menu works.
- Hold volume-down during boot to enter fastboot
- Bug fixes to app2ext and link2sd support
- app2ext is nolonger automatic (you must create /sd-ext/app directory).
- Link2SD support (you must create /sd-ext/link2sd directory)
- ext4 supported for /sd-ext.*
- You can read more about the other changes between 0.10 and 6.3.0 on milaq's thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1155454 and in the github. Some A853 features (esp. ones that use kernel modules) are not included yet.
*Note about ext4 support: the huge_file option is *not* supported but is default for mkfs.ext4. Nadlabak explained how to disable huge_file on existing ext4 filesystems. Alternately just create ext2/3 partitions and use OpenRecovery-XT720 SD Card Utilities to upgrade the ext2 partition to ext4. Warning: the other OpenRecovery/Androidiani's don't understand ext4 on XT720 (thanks fjfalcon for adding ext4 support to OR for XT720). Also be aware that not many XT720 ROMs understand ext4 yet--hellmongers XDAspecial RC2 *does*.
For more information about changes see See post #605 and the github source.

Themes:
- sileshn's themes for milaq's CM 6.3.2 are reported to work in RC2 with the caveat that the reboot to bootloader menu option disappears from the power menu. None of the changes in RC3 should change that. I don't think I've seen reports either way about sileshn's themes for XT720 CM 6.1.2 yet.
- 3rdstring's DarkFroyo Remix for 6.3 (thanks ashish7350)
- Russian Mennace's themes for 6.3: Theme 1, Theme 2

CM 6.1.2 Notable issues:
CM 6.1.2 Instructions:
- Do not select 1% battery increments (see post #7) (became a placebo button in 6.3.0-RC2)
- The default keyboard has very, very small keys. You can select the Korean keyboard or download another. (fixed in 6.3.0-RC2, thanks peshovik!)
- FM Radio does not exist and will not work.
- Video recording not extensively tested -- but, hey, it doesn't crash the phone immediately anymore.
- Gallery button does nothing
- Haptic feedback is not pleasant when enabled (first attempt at using linear vibrator in 6.3.0-RC2)
- RomManager is dangerous on XT720 (not included in 6.3.0-RC1,2)
- Reboot recovery goes to motorola's recovery (fixed in 6.3.0-RC1)

CM 6.1.2 Hotfixes:
- update-cm-6.1.2-0.10-XT720-hotfix6.zip : Fixes for swap, app2ext, overclock, wifi, app2fat (2011-07-02)
New build's coming soon (hopefully this weekend). The noticeable changes are: I've fixed the screenshot bug, MotoCamera replaces the AOSP Camera (thanks brianlili for explaining how) (but HD video recording produces garbage), and I've backported some things from CM7 via NameLess Froyo: lockscreens (Rotary Revamped, Lense, Ring) and long press on notification power widgets jumps to appropriate settings. The sensorfix.ko for xt720mod.sbf will also be included. Not working and won't make it this release (no ETA): media button, FM volume control outside FM app, 720p video recording.
