[ROM] **CM9 Discussion/Download Thread**

[PresPPsP]

Because they haven't implemented all the features you've come to know and love in cyanogen. If you install winner's build and still through the cyanogen settings, you'll notice a lot of empty tabs. I imagine they're working on implementing more features before making their grand debut of certain 9. Winner just takes their current source and latest gerrit submissions and makes a build. We just get to taste CM9 early.

In the power widget I see an option for a LED flashlight, but its grayed out. What flashlight app can we install that will enable that flashlight button?
Something wonky, but probably an overall issue with Ice Cream Sammich, if you call *228 to update your roaming capabilities, you can't pull up the dial pad to hit the number 2 to choose 'update roaming capabilities'. You have to switch the phone to speakerphone and play a #2 DTMF tone from a speaker to use that option.

Any chance we could get the lock screen gestures from CM7, or a way to add a 'button' to the lockscreen (like how you can move the lock to camera or to unlock the phone). One customizable button would be awesome, right where the SMS message button is when someone is calling. We could use it for a flashlight, to open google maps, or go directly to some other app.

All in all, great work winner! I'm loving the kang CM9 so far.

I would make a backup and give this rom a try or others.

Still sorta new to flashing custom ROMs onto my phone and wanted to ask just to be sure. What is the proper way to flash an updated build? Do I wipe cache and then dalvik then flash new ROM and then reboot? I'm looking to flash new 01052012 update to my current CM9.

He needs to edit the make file to add the cm7 flashlight app

You shouldn't be dialing *228 with an LTE capable phone (I've heard it could jacked up your sim but can't confirm)

Updates to roaming and activation or done upon every reboot.

Changes in this build:

• Return to message list if the last message on thread is being deleted
• Update kernel binary
• toro: minor fixes in overlay, makefile, prop files
• Added SMS Split by encoding and counter at end of message with settings
• Update no software render
• Notification Power Widget: fix xhdpi media icon scale
• Onscreen controls customization was updated
• Blue soft buttons was also updated to work with this build.

Fyi, I've been applying the no software render hack manually on these builds and it is awesome. Glad to see it is included by default now.

The globe test in quadrant shows the power of this (increases fps from 8-10 to 58-60). I'm benching 3630

That's correct. That's what I was told as well

Someone else asked a similar question.

Wipe data required when installing the update every day? Didn't do that today just installed new one. Everything seems OK....

No its not. I would wipe cache and dalvik cache though.

Thanks for reminding me. I was going to do that but forgot.

Other CM7 features I'm really missing right now: night mode for the screen and selective app permission revocation.

Remove Search bar and reclaim the space

I see under CYANOGENMOD -> Trebuchet -> Homescreen, there is an option to disable the persistent search bar but this doesnt reclaim the space and still remain a 4x4 grid instead of 4x5 grid. I have seen some other ROMs enable this feature and I read some instructions on how you can manually do it (https://docs.google.com/document/d/13uBgxYZjR5kb0wjzwIDRsy0oSRJeTS9fIJdxFmtFavA/edit?pli=1) but it requires you to use ApkTool which is way above my head.

Any suggestions?

Hey winner,

Thanks for work on ROM. I just unlocked my phone and it had an email composed and waiting to send with a SS and bugreport. Any idea what I should do with it? If you want to see it PM me your email.
