What is this? Does it allow you to update your ROM?

 

[colchiro]

It lets you download a rom. You'd still install it via Rom Manager (CWM) or TWRP.

So sweet that Goo is now an App! Bravo to them!

 

[colchiro]

for those testing CM9TP nightlies and ath6kl wifi, here's new ath6kl update compat w/ latest kernel/nightlies: http://t.co/MQntwlLo

If you're having trouble with wifi, make a backup in recovery and flash it from recovery.

 

[colchiro]

Might want to install from recovery instead of via Rom Manager tho.

There seems to be zip corruption issues when installing CyanogenMod through ROM Manager. I've found the problem and am fixing it.

I would think you should be ok to boot into recovery via RM tho.

This from Twitter:

Due to some merges yesterday you may need to reflash gapps after the 3/10 nightly.. Latest gapps can be found here: http://tinyw.in/Do

Don't know what that means, maybe due to the "Fix market intent", whateverdahell that is.

I've been having issues with the tablet rebooting a couple seconds after I put it to sleep. Anyone else seen this and know if any of the nightly releases since Alpha 2 address it?

I don't really see anything in the changelog that looks like it fixes the problem.

I will say, though, that the touchscreen is a THOUSAND percent better than it was in Alpha .6. For me, the early alphas were almost unusable because long press events were so hard to generate. Now it works well.

 

[colchiro]

That's an issue I've seen since day one. I think it is better with the nightlies (or seems to settle down after a bit). I think I'm on a nightly around 3/8.

How is battery life with this mod and would any of the battery apps improve battery life?

 

[colchiro]

CM9 should have the same or better battery life as CM7, if you don't have an incompatible app that misbehaves.

I've not found any battery app that works well. One thing they want to do is turn off wifi when sleeping, which can cause other problems. (It needs to stay on for now.)

I tried the 3/25 nightly today. It is working great so far. I was having a problem trying to download the Netflix app from the market. Kept getting some kind of error. After flashing 3/25 I was able to get it. Don't know if 3/25 fixed it or just the act of doing a clean install.

Hello everyone new here but not new to cyanogen.... I am actually running classifieds right now..I was running cm7, I didn't goto. Cm9 because of certain things....I have one question for u if your running this nightly... I am so happy about hardware acceleration and hd video..I could care less about the camera but I had become very dependant on my mic. Working...is the much working in this or any version you know of? Typing sucks...talking is so much easier. Function for any reply.

 

[colchiro]

Internal mic does not work yet. Not sure about BT mic, but I doubt that works either.

Eyeballer posted this on twitter yesterday:

The TouchPad is now in official CM9 nightlies!! Great work by the CM team. Updated status of my builds:

I read that this is your new change log: CyanogenMod nightlies changelog for Ace

... but that doesn't jive with the old change log, which I see is still updated.

Anyone install 3/27 nightly? Does shutdown work now? Gerrit Code Review

4.0.4 has dropped so you should start seeing that merged. Trebuchet (stock launcher) has already been updated to 4.0.4.

Anyone install 3/27 nightly? Does shutdown work now? Gerrit Code Review

I installed 0328 a little while ago. What was the problem with shutdown? Mine has always seemed to shut down with the power off selection. At least until I plug in the charger.

 

[jericko]

If you are on Alpha 2.0, is there any benefit to going to the more recent nightly? I am having no issues except for the random reboot.

 

[colchiro]

I still have random reboots.

The touch screen has improved quite a bit, but you could also flash that separately.

 

[colchiro]

Even more fixes from dalingrin and jcsullins tonight, so TP is 100% merged!

Re: my build, I've decided to move to the newer adreno drivers that were released a couple of weeks ago, so these will be stock in my builds now. Doesn't seem to give any performance gain.. but hey.. newer is better.. right?

Since installing the 04/23 nightly, I haven't had another reboot. Not to say they're fixed entirely, because it's only been a few days, but I used to get at least one random reboot per day and none since then.

 

[colchiro]

I always get reboots when my TP is sleeping. Thought it might be from restoring apps from TIBU so did a wipe with AOPK and started restoring apps just from Market last night. So far so good, but we'll see tonight.

 

[Deleted User]

Right, that's when I used to get reboots as well. Frequently within 5 seconds after hitting the sleep button.

This new build seems to have fixed that. Knock on wood, of course.

 

[colchiro]

Clean install with minimal use of TIBU didn't help much. Still got the reboot during sleep.

I see CM9 for the DroidX had a RC0 build (release candidate). Nice to see it nearing a stable build.

EDIT: Updated a month-old nandroid of CM9 to the latest nightly and it is indeed more stable. Not one reboot.

See? I am wise. You should listen to me more often.


Get me a beer.

Then why aren't you a guide?

Why AREN'T you a guide? Did they ever offer it to you?
