Haptic feedback is working for everything except for Menu and Back buttons...

Am I missing some setting?

How is the best way to enable data2sd? (if it's possible atm :))
Or, at least, app2sd? :confused:

Thanks!

Isn't i5800 a better phone than i5500 and i5700(i mean, it has higher specs)? and yet both of these phones have long had cm7 ported to them(inferring from the CMstats page).....but at last it looks like we'll be getting it on our devices as well :)

looking forward to custom roms from the developers :)

Try app2sd-v2, but i dont know if it will work.

EDIT: I just found why the market apps download/install isnt working...
The /cache partition isn't mounted!

I am on CM7 from Indroid 4.3, and so far besides missing functionality (video...etc),
it is fast and very responsive.
I do have fast connection through WIFI also able to login to Market .

Q. How to I remove (delete) extra home screen?

Thanks, I'll try it.


My cache partition is mounted:


/dev/block/stl6 on /system type rfs (rw,relatime,vfat,llw,check=no,gid/uid/rwx,iocharset=cp437)
/dev/block/stl7 on /data type rfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,vfat,llw,check=no,gid/uid/rwx,iocharset=cp437)
/dev/block/stl8 on /cache type rfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,vfat,llw,check=no,gid/uid/rwx,iocharset=cp437)
/dev/block/stl4 on /efs type rfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,vfat,llw,check=no,gid/uid/rwx,iocharset=cp437)


But I can not download apps.

@Arun, from which rom are you coming? I found that if you are coming from a rom with cache converted to ext2/etx4, your cache partition wont be mouted...

@Rudolf, LOL, they can post their answers to this thread as well... and as arunmcops said, they are busy!

yeah "lol" i did not know, but the op can handle and edit the first post as well, thought you knew that :D
They could edit on what is fixed and what is not..There are enough devs in their dev team, some one would have some time to be a real op..Arun for example has answered many question here, so could he in and real official thread posted by him if any.

Edit: I just said it..Nothing like you have to take some action and close the thread. Just gave my opinion, no harm.

As i said, they can write/post in this thread. Don't be off-topic!

@rudolf895, Marcellusbe gave me the permition, so stop being off-topic. Only Questions and bug reporting here! I will tell haree to delete the off-topic messages.

dont take the trouble..
I'll tell him..Happy!
Kinda still lame for a non team member to start a thread, just saying
Might as well edit the off-topic words from this post.

I forgot something pretty important... recovery is not working.

So, I can not do a factory reset, and app2sd script will never be executed (At least, I guess it happens that way).


Thank you!

    Here we can talk about CM7/GB ports :)
    You all know that Marcellusbe started to port CM7/GB to our phone. He just released an alpha2 built (for testing purposes only!).
    Here you can ask question, and report bugs of the current CM7/GB built (alpha2). Do not report bugs in the official CM7/GB thread (in the development thread), to keep it clean!
    This thread will be constantly updated with the list of the bugs, so dont report the same bug if there is already in the list!

    Questions & Answers


    -My wifi isn't connecting to my router in CM7.2 Alpha8. What should i do?
    It won't detect wifi if Name (SSID) is hidden. It works fine if Name (SSID) is visible. So, go in your router settings (192.168.0.1 for me) and Unhide Name (SSID).

    I just managed to solve the market fc/auto update problem on cyanogenMod 7.1 and install old market!
    Steps:
    1) From root explorer go to system/app. Mount rw. Delete marketupdater.apk.
    2) Download and install indroid ota app from here.
    3) Download transparent old market from the indroid ota app.
    4) go to recovery and flash the update.zip you just downloaded.if the flashing fails just extract the zip and copy and replace the vending.apk in the zip with vending.apk in system/app using root explorer.
    5) after the reboot again go to system/app from root explorer-> mount rw -> long press on vending.apk -> permissions -> tick everywhere.
    6) reboot.
    7) enjoy.
    8) (optional) come back here and press thanks! :p

    Hi! I love your works ! :D
    one ask. Why does camera is Black and white? Is it solved in the alpha 7?

    Thank :)

    gracias.

    the camera preview is b/w, probably caused by a wrong pixel/color format. I don't know and I must do some debugging.

    I can't guarantee that it will be solved in alpha7 ...


    When will alpha 7?
