Anyone else have problems with boot loops after flashing this ROM? I tried for about an hour, then went back to n260.

did you wipe cache and dalvik?

EDIT: P.S. did you flash anything else while flashing this ROM? I used to flash a custom lock screen and occasionally that caused boot loops because it was incompatible with the new ROM for some reason.

I flashed over 7.1 stable and had no problems except it wouldn't connect to wifi.
Thanks... I am waiting for ics to become more stable. then goodbye gingerbread...

By the way, CM7.1 did not have the problem. The change was made sometime after CM7.1 final and before nightly build 260. The "liberty-cm-reverted-src-gps-signed.zip" file that ladios posted brings the GPS libs back in line with how they were in CM7.1 final.

I cannot speak for anyone else, but CM7.1 did have a GPS problem on my Aria. The GPS started off fine with 7.1. But its performance degraded, so I flashed the stock libraries ladios provided. I'm not saying the problem was widespread, but I certainly experienced it. And the stock libraries fixed it.

By "degraded," I mean that, eventually, the GPS wouldn't lock on even after 15 minutes of unobstructed access to the sky.

(And yes, I'm sure I wasn't running a nightly. I haven't updated since the release of 7.1 final).

i flashed this rom onto my aria, and now every so often i get a total freeze when i need to do a battery pull, and the very rare reboot occurs. the only thing i have changed about this rom was the over clocking speed. I put minimum to 768 and max 787 with my governor on performance. i prefer performance as I do not care about battery life, id rather faster speeds. anyone else getting these problems?

That's probably your issue there....keeping the processor running that fast/hot at all times is bound to freeze up. Keep in mind that this processor stock maxes out at 600...

I have mine set on smartass from 200-806 and never had a freeze up and it is pretty damn snappy

Yeah, none of the GPS libs are perfect. Different people have had issues with all of them, including the stock ones. However, the version that is currently in the repository (that is included with n260 and the CM7.2 KANG ROMs posted in this thread) seems to be the worst in that people have problems with it immediately (including me).

Honestly I never had the issues with the stock GPS libs that other people reported back before the newer ones were introduced.

As I recall, setting the governor to Performance forces the cpu to the max speed setting. Same as setting both the min and max to 787.

Yes, it does, but if you did set the min and max to the same frequencies (on a different governor), the kernel would still have to check the frequency continuously. Having it on performance removes that.

This might have been answered on another thread but I can't seem to find an answer. Ever since I started using CM6 OR CM7 I couldn't download MMS messages. I get the message and I can see it's a Jpeg or something attached, I just can't download it. I've tried downloading it on a messaging app and the one that comes with CM7. Any settings wrong?

I have almost the same problem with the notification bar, except in my case it occurs when Titanum Backup finishes an action and reports that in the notification bar. When I try to slide it away it freezes just like bigfoot7375 described. I attached a screenshot

Been running this since Sunday with drownings 8.9.2a kernel & reverted gps without any problems also just tested missed call, titanium back up and gmail notifications and swiped away with out issue. So maybe isolated instances. ;)

Yes I noticed that those are very isolated instances which makes it very hard to track. I haven't been able to reproduce this behavior. It doesn't happen a lot but if it does its very annoying because of the necessary reboot.

Edit: I've noticed that every time I reboot mobile data is reset to "off". Anybody else having that problem? Would be great if somebody could check that before I start looking into it...concerning all those apps I have installed ;)

I can confirm this bug too. But it has been fixed with a commit earlier today.

Can we please get an update to the latest? Thank you!

Oh snap! ICS animations (including rotation animation) have been backported to CM7!
I can upload a build if that's OK with dustinhayes93...
