Marcellusbe,

I know your probably tired of hearing it, Well done so far. The Rom is out of this world!

I was just wondering what's planned for the next update? Anything exciting?

Sorry I can't donate more, I'm not feeling rich at the moment though, hopefully it's enough to buy you a beer! :)

Thanks!! :D



I am guessing Bluetooth to be partially fixed....

Marcellusbe,

Are there any updates to first page? Still same stage?

Thanks!
Actually, I'm working on the libaudio to fix recording and maybe Bluetooth A2DP.
I'm planning to fix WifiAP and USB notification too.

I'm looking also to fix video codecs (omx libraries etc...).

All that will take several weeks again ... patience.

When new hardware is fixed (BT, libaudio, camera or WifiAP), I will release Alpha7 (android 2.3.7) , patience because as you know, I work on cm7 on my (little) spare time.

Hi,

Loved CM7. But facing disturbances in making/receiving calls.
I had the same problem in the Samsung Roms and solved that by manually selecting the GSM 900 band by using the secret code *#2263#. But this does not work in CM 7. Any one has any alternative?

Will appreciate the help.

Thanks.

I really don't know ... maybe there is an option in the settings .. I will look closely and tell you if I find something interesting.

I just want to know one thing, does calling actually work on this rom because people have reported it not working.

Oh wow! I never expected all that in just one update!

Well, as ever, take your time and don't settle for anything less than perfection! Will be eagerly awaiting any and all news about progress.

And just a side note, can people please consider donations? I have friends who heavily develop and the donations help so much!!

Thanks Marcellusbe!!

move swype to internal memory
check it's status in settings>applications
it must be installed in phone memory mif not change it

So is this problem there only for some or for all? And what's the solution?

There is no solution and it's a problem for all. This rom is in alpha stages so you should expect these sort of bugs.

    @Everyone :

    I have got many PM's regarding the state of this thread and i believe Marcel would have got more than me ......thats why i am sharing the Info.

    Marcel have got the job he desired and currently have to move to CANADA......so it will probably take 1-2 Weeks.....

    after that he should first get settled in there and should build up the development environment again.......

    So till then i guess everyone should have patience.

    Not 1-2 weeks but 3-4 months... but you know, it's not easy to immigrate in a new country so I'm very busy to prepare my family and myself for the move.

    Thanks for your support and patience.

    Some news about Alpha9 :
    - Camera : you can now use a barcode reader or any app that requires camera. It should work.
    - Video recording is working with some restrictions : not using hardware codec but software. Audio is not recorded but may be fixed soon.
