Does anyone know what RC3 actually adds? I am currently running CM7 RC2 on my evo 4g and i am wandering if i should update to RC3 or wait for the final release.

As my evo was stolen today, I haven't flashed. But should include further tweaks and fixes and should have hdmi working on it for sure.

I've been running CM since RC1. It keeps getting smoother and smoother and my battery life generally increases. You don't need to do a full wipe, just clear your cache and dalvik, then flash RC3 on top of RC2. It won't be a huge change, but it'll likely run even smoother, methinks.

I just flash the RC's, I usually don't flash the nightlies. Going to RC3 I noticed the GPS seems to track better without doing the sense fix. Other than that, I haven't really noticed anything. I think it's still worth it to flash the new one though, I'm sure there's plenty of improvements that I just haven't noticed yet.

Ive been flashing nightlies since #14 I think. Each one is better than the last. RC3 is no different. It is just a step up from nightly 31 and runs exceptionally smooth. Personally, I'm not even running it though, I only ran it long enough for nightly 32 to drop....

So you flashed 32 for one commit?

Good Morning, After I install rc3 do i then install cm_supersonic_full-32. In another words, is nightly 32 the first nightly after you install rc3?

You dont need to install RC3 before installing nightly 32 if thats what you want to use. You can just install nightly 32 over whatever CM7 version you are running now

but yes, nightly 32 is newer than RC3 :)

Phone is Making Random Phone Calls

While at the mall with a friend, he told me that I was calling him. The crazy thing was my phone was in my car outside. The next day while at the dinner table, my phone starting ringing another one of my contacts without me even touching it.

Call this paranormal activity 4 but it has happened 2 more times since. Any thoughts? My sd card has been formatted and i did not install any of the apps found at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=976913
Currently have rc2 nightly 31 installed.

I did exactly this and the market no longer works. You can download, but once an app starts to install the market fc's and doesn't install. Any ideas?

Didn't know that I needed to if I was just upgrading, but after this issue I did anyway and had no effect.
Well normally you don't, but it was an option, so still random calls? I would suggest, as earlier, do a complete wipe, then re-flash the rom with gapps.
