I would like to ask how can i update my cyanogenmod? like for example when i started to flash, it was this version (update-cm-7-20120520-NIGHTLY-cooper) and now i wanna update it to the latest. How do I do it? can somebody guide me?
Oh no no no, this is only the basic default Cyanogenmod rom, you can do tonnes of modifications over it, add new ram scripts, change layouts, bootanimations,system apps, enhance music quality, overclock and many more. This is just a platform to build over.I will give this mod thing a rest for a while and keep a working phone for a bit, don't think there is a better mod anyway to try.
I have installed official cm7.2(stable) and i have some questions about it:
1.Like reviewed by many people there is a slight lag in the app drawer so is there any way to fix that?
2.cm 7.2 gives you many overclock options but does this rom actually have a overclock kernel?(I am confused because some websites tell you to flash an overclock kernel after installing this rom)
3.Can scripts like slaidyboost be used in this rom? If yes will they really improve performance? I flashed adrenaline engine and i didn't like it as it made the interface more laggy
Thanx in advance to whoever will answer my questions and yrs i will surely press the thanx button if you help me

1.The lag is mainly due to the shear number of apps running in the background consuming ram, you can use ram scripts which make sure that unnecessary apps are shut down or alotted the least amount of ram space and more free ram is available for use. They do work, you can use the task manager and see the effect yourself.
2.As chrcol said, the latest Firekernel is pretty good, i am using it on unofficial CM, it increases battery life and the OC is well too. Another way to remove lag is to set the minimum cpu frequency to 245mhz instead of default 122mhz, this works for most of the users.
3. Yes ram scripts like slaidyboost can be used with this rom, i can't say anything about the Adrenaline engine because i haven't been able to compare its effectiveness with a non-tweeked rom.
CM is much faster than stock and the shear number of features it presents simply makes up for a tiny lag even if there is any.
so i just downloade cyanogenmod for first time and i was wondering if i could get the old messaging apk thing rather than the one that comes with cyanogenmod
Not possible. Stock rom apps don't work on CM. They need to be modified to work on CM.
is there a modified stock app available ?
