I came from hotwire's 10.1 and had no issue flashing the latest nightly with the latest TWRP2.2.

---------- Post added at 12:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:37 PM ----------

Anyone have a guess as to why my apps didn't sync and automatically download/install after I set up GAPPS on the latest nightly (7/17)? It worked great when I first installed hotwire's kang; but, for some reason, I had to install all 100+ apps manually on this nightly.

Is there somewhere I can go in settings to force the APPS sync? I only see "browser, email, contacts, and photos" under Settings -> Accounts and Sync.

(I'm using the 4/29 GAPPS)

Regardless, this is AWESOME work CM, thank you!

1. I can't beleive Cyanogen posts here it's just too cool
2. I posted in your forum a problem where the i717 goes into a bootloop if "use internal storage" is checked so the SD card is used for apps.

What version are you using? I've tried 2.2 every way I could think of and can't get TWRP to flash CM9.

There is another version u must flash. It still says 2.2 twrp but there was a bug fix. Grab it straight from their site. The one on xda is the version with the bug. Goo manager beta app might have the newer version.

Goo Manager does have the newer version. I'm using 2.2 with no problems and CM9 flashes with no problems. Only major problem is with the SD card issue not in installing it. I did have a problem with it not installing on the older touch recovery listed on this forum.

yeah... they really need to start changing the version numbers for every new build of TWRP. I hate seeing this confusion when it's easy to avoid it.:fingers-crossed:

There is most definitely something wrong with something related to bass.

I've had bass boost on, setting of slight, since I can't remember, and the same headphones. It sounds totally different, to the point where I went into settings to make sure they were the same, and then thought something happened to my headphones.

Something changed.

CM probably just has the audio gain turned up as high as possible to get lots of volume from the rom. that means there's no room for the huge amount of extra gain you get from even a small amount of bass boost, let alone the large amount of bass boost that switch in the dsp app creates.

you need to turn down the overall gain when you turn on bass boost if you get distortion. it's audio engineering stuff which isn't something most folks know about, but it is completely logical and not an indication of something being broken, just something that is setup differently in this rom.

I bet you'll find that the rom overall plays music slightly louder at loudest volume than other roms do, hence the lack of headroom for undocumented extra features such as bass boost.

what you really need to do is turn down the mids and possibly the highs, which effectively gives you a bass boost. or do a bass boost and turn down the overall gain (volume) in the dsp app.

Cwm was updated today so u might just want to grab that. It always worked for me. Twrp just looks pretty lol

He's right about the audio I have hhad so many different outcomes. Usually I have my head unit tuned and just use flat equalizer on my phone bbut so many different rom flashing I always have to tweak it. My normal listening volume in my car is 30 or so on some roms it's 40 others its 35. You really need to play to get the best experience. Poweramp does the trick quite well. Worth 5 bucks over the boring stock player. Plus so much nicer.

Twrp has a file manager. CWM doesn't. Just something to consider. It also has no problems seeing the sd card unlike the nightmares I had on CWM

I did notice that. Although never had an issue with ext or int sd memory on either.

Did it give you the option to restore all your apps? I don't remember it... but I never use it anyway.

Download twrp 2.2 again. They fixed the issue but did not change the version number.

Not saying something is broken, just that it is different, and most definitely sounds distorted at the same/previous levels. Even turning down the volume doesn't lessen the distortion though. Where bass used to be rich and full, it sounds like a blown speaker now.

I don't see any way to turn down volume in the dsp app.

Bass without the boost enabled is pretty weak. Will have to play with the EQ now. Not a big deal, but is was perfect with R&B and Bass Boost on Slight effect before. Oh well.

I've used Poweramp, but I like the new Play Music app better with dsp manager. Would be nice if any of the music apps would provide gapless playback between tracks. One thing I miss from Apple, but I digress.

I also used flappjaxx aosp rom previously to flashing cm9 and it worked flawlessly on slight or moderate bass boost. I gave my beats studios to my cousin and bought another pair and thought these were broken. It doesn't matter what volume you play it at the sound is distorted with any amount of bass. I replaced the apk in system/apps with a previous version that worked fine but it was still distorted. Guessing its a deeper rom issue since flappjaxx new 1.0a rom has the same issue and it is based off cm9/aosp. Hopefully there's a fix VERY soon!!!

No, it didn't -- just the usual stuff about location services, backing up the phone to google, and such.

I also seem to recall that the Accounts and Sync menu used to have several more sync options under the Google account, but now there are only the four I listed above. Maybe I'll restore a nandroid to confirm that I'm missing something...

When downloading and updating from ROM manager is there anything special I need to do? I can install it from there too right? I've never used ROM manager before, but it seems like the easier way.

If you install more Google apps it will show more sync options. I currently have 13 boxes to check under my main Gmail account. Did you go into play store and download all the gapps you need? Pretty sure gapps.zip just gives you ability to actually use the market. It doesn't necessarily install all of the Google apps. You still need to go to play store and download Gmail if you haven't, etc, still odd you don't have contacts, did you check your contact settings?

I have only had a few minutes to play with it, but so far everything seems to be working flawlessly.

Thank you CyanogenMod team for bringing an official to my I717.

Does anyone know why the audio for tango does not work with this rom? It works fine on others but not CM9. The other person can hear me but I cannot hear them. Any ideas?

Must admit, I laughed. OK...paid for premium rom manager, downloaded CM9 through ROM manager, told it to update, install GApps, and backup current ROM...boots into CWM, and CWM says it can't do it. Whats next?
