so this means its official right?

It is indeed.

shweeeeeet

Sweet I just got the notification from ROM Manager, it's downloading now!
I've been waiting for this update, almost as much as I'm waiting for the update that uses 2.2 base

This is amazing.
Thanks Koush. This rom is awesome

One bug I've found is in the Gallery. It doesn't allow you to use 5MP pictures for the Picture Frame or as Wallpapers. To fix it, I simply pushed the Gallery3D.apk file from CM 5.0.6.2 to the /system/app folder. All better now.

There will be a 5.0.7.1 release forthcoming that fixes Gallery.

Does anyone have the link, so I can get the Launcher2.apk from the .zip or whatever?
I pushed my old Launcher2.apk b/c i themed it, but I think there were some new features w/ the new launcher, am i right?

Damnit I JUST installed a 5.0.7 nightly last night, now the legit one comes out *facepalm*

I'll just wait for 5.0.7.1 since it apparently shouldn't be far off.

Is anyone else having trouble downloading from within Rom Manager?

I tried late last night and got an error during download. Ever since then, I can't even start the download or go to the "Download Roms" page.
I get "Error occurred while downloading the ROM list! Please contact the developer of this ROM."

So I'm a bit confused: The wireless tethering app is gone, but what is this "omni-tether" I'm hearing about?

whaaaaaat.
I want in

Try Clear Download Cache and then try re-downloading

I haven't updated to this version yet, but I believe it is a version of bluetooth tethering.

So three questions:

Will I be able to wi-fi tether with this ROM (I know I might have to install the wireless tether APK)?

Will I be able to use a BeKit overclocked kernel?

What are the advantages of this ROM over other ROMs such as Bugless Beast?

-Mike

Awesome! installing it now!

just get wireless tether from the market.

any kernel in rom manager will work(bekit included)

better? that's subjective... not gonna get into that!

Oh, I know that the wireless.apk is in the market; I was just more concerned about what omni-tethering was.

edit: ah, someone kinda already explained what it was

Great ROM, installed using ROM Manager with no problems... Enjoying the update

Did a wipe and then installed Titanium Backup to retrieve all my apps with data. No issues what so ever

Thanks for the hard work on this one...
