Competition in the Open-Source World Drives Software Evolution

With this release we have striven to stamp out a several of the annoying bugs that have been plagueing users from the market and other areas. Along with these bug fixes have brought a few additional features as well, including a new built in app that handles all sapphire options, clock removal from the status bar, and battery percentages on the battery indicator. With this we hope to have hit our stride, and will be pushing more features with less bug fixes. We also got all of the themes finished ahead of time so that everyone will be able to enjoy them instead of having to wait. Hope everyone enjoys!

Color me excited!!! Downloading now!! The new CM6RC just wasn't working out for me at all...

Thanks guys!

great work dev!

So even if we are coming from .7.0 we need to data wipe?? I literally just got everything set up like I wanted finally and am very happy with my phone! Just wondering if it's ok to not wipe?? Thanks!

Excellent work team!

You may be fine w/o the wipe, but official support will require a wipe prior to 0.8.4. This was done so that there would be no lingering effects from prior builds so that cvpcs / sniffle are working on issues directly related to 0.8.4 and not some remnant left behind from 0.7.0 or earlier. It makes a lot of sense, and 0.8.4 once again reinstalls all your market apps.

Yeah the only problem I have with that is I am running the "extreme orange" theme and I love it. And im guessing its not supported in this latest build so I will be waiting on updating. Thank you for the quick reply! It does make sense just not for me right now

yeah, installed without a wipe and noticed that the google apps were gone. Added them using the .zip file and the setup wizard wouldn't let me advance and the gmail app wouldn't open. Wiped and am in the process or restoring apps now.

.8.4 does not have the Google apps included in the ROM update.zip.
There is a separate update.zip for the Google Apps.

It's on the wiki page

Phenomenal release! Everything's working perfectly. Thanks so much for this!!

compcache... yaaayyy :icon_ banana:

Yeah, that's what I used but things were still wonky. Everything is working perfectly now after wipe though.

In case you're wondering, I have me theme up for this release....If you'd like to try it and give me feedback, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Hmmmm might have to ditch my orange theme and give yours a go now!

Just an FYI for anyone.

Tried installing .8.4 without wiping from .7.0 first. All went well except for after applying the gapps fix I could not get past the Android welcome screen.

Performing data wipe fixed the issue.

I know it said to wipe but I was trying it out without wiping first.

Yea, that was my first question....whether to wipe or not. In the end I figured it was safer just to wipe it and be done with it. I put my apps back with titanium and restored my account settings. Done. It's been running awesome since. I'm very pleased. Now I just have to pick a theme. So many to choose from!

Did not wipe coming from .7.0 Applied fixes via rom manager. NO ISSUES at all, all seems to be running just fine. Again, DID NOT wipe, no issues so far (2 hours now).

Man...I was just gonna take a nap...guess thats gonna have to wait.

Thanks Sniffle

Wow, I wake up early to no release, so I go and take a nap and miss the release >.<
