(ROM) CyanogenMod 7 for Cliq/Dext (06/16/11)
  • ngiordanongiordano June 2011

    CyanogenMod 7
    aka CM4Morrison

    Thank you @Turl for all your work on the build for the XT. Your continued work made this possible. Stop over to M3 and give him a thanks. He helped tremendously. "TEAM ROGUE" @JassyCliq, @csolanol, @dwagner and I put this together so that Cliq/Dext users could get to experience CM7.  Thanks to @Br3ttu @Firesnatch @1madfitter @handlerexploit @toxigenicpoem @sudoadam @adlx @j_r0dd and many others for there input and help

    What works:
    • CPU scaling in CM settings. (Smartass, lag free,interactive governors added. OCed to 768 Mhz) Thanks@Jassycliq
    • Improved battery
    • Keyboard Backlight (Now works with light sensors) Amazing job @dwagner and @JassyCliq
    • Calls 
    • Data
    • FM radio
    • WiFi
    • Bluetooth (No need to toggle mute on/off)(To play music effortlessly through Bluetooth download BTmono from Market)
    • Speaker phone (No need to toggle mute on/off)
    • GPS
    • Camera (Stock camera has a lot of lag. This is the MIUI camera: http://www.mediafire.com/?jpdplli44qdj1fd This will replace the stock camera. Wipe Dalvik and flash it in recovery.) (Zoom does not work at highest resolution)
    • Camcorder 
    • SD Card
    • USB (If you have trouble syncing SD Card to PC. Unplug cable and plug it back in)
    • Proximity
    • Compass
    • Sound
    • Barcode scanning
    • Reboot to recovery
    • SYM Key
    • HQ YouTube playback
    • Pretty much everything CM4Morrison had working. Also this is OCed. Just install SetCPU. 528 Mhz by default for those who don't wan't or can't OC.
    • Plus much much more!

    Please follow the instructions carefully:

    First Time Install
    • Download latest update: Download Link
    • Download super-wipe.zip: http://www.mediafire.com/?x4dteoqsonzkr9n
    • Put both on the root of your SD card.
    • Boot to your recovery
    • Flash super-wipe.zip first
    • Wipe data/factory reset
    • Flash latest nightly
    • Fix permissions
    • Reboot.
    • After boot let it settle for 10 minutes.
    • Open Rom Manager.
    • If you haven't done so, it is recommended you flash ClockworkMod recovery. (To use: Volume-up/down, Camera button-select)
    • Go to "Download ROM>Google Apps
    • Download latest Google Apps (top)
    • After download a window will pop up.
    • Leave Wipe Dalvik checked. I recommend Backup as well.
    • The rest will be automated assuming you flashed ClockworkMod Recovery.

    Updating from previous build (Post 06/05/11)

    SD card update
    • Download latest update: http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=morrison
    • Place it on the root of your SD for simplicity.
    • Open Rom Manager (If you are using ClockworkMod Recovery 2.5.1.2)
    • Select "Install ROM from SD Card 
    • Select the latest nightly
    • A window will pop up. Leave "Wipe Dalvik" checked
    • Put a check next to Backup Current ROM
    • Let your phone reboot and the rest is automated.
    • When finished booting, open Rom Manager and install the latest Gapps again
    • Just Wipe Dalvik
    • Reboot and enjoy

    If you have a legitimate Rom Manager Premium. Open Rom Manager and "Check for ROM Updates" for even more ease.


    Log in using Setup Wizard. You'll get a check-list to download some of the important apps.
    (Setup Wizard might loop back to android after setup. press the home button and launchers should show.)
    Please enable CMStats. The little icon in the upper left corner. It's anonymous.
    Install the launcher of your choice if you like.
    Go into /settings/cyanogenmod settings/performance and disable compcache
    Put a check by "Lock home in memory.
    Some say to keep surface dithering disabled. I enable mine. I don't like the gradient banding. I haven't found it to impact performance much.
    Set your CPU governor the way you like.
    Reboot so that it could finish binding your settings.
    Using Titanium Backup? Do not restore system settings. It will break things like WiFi.
    Calibrate your battery. Download and install this app: http://www.mediafire.com/?5wib3m3afp2hem1 Charge your battery to 100% and press the calibration button in the app. To simplify things. :-)


    For troubles with Superuser, flash this in recovery:http://www.mediafire.com/?1wntnrjuluk853w

    To switch to another ROM make sure you wipe very well with this: http://simply-android.com/discussion/1343/super-wipe-patch/p1

    --THIS HAS BEEN FIXED--
    In the new nightlies photos aren't saving Zooming is now working for higher resolutions (5MP) in the new nightlies. It should enable that capability in previous nightlies also. I also included a file to improve camcorder capture.

    OC patch #13
    New OC kernel with camera fix. Changed frequency scaling. Fix for Bluetooth reboots. Now with more very functional steps :-)

    China:

    Non-OC patch 07/29/11
    This is not overclocked. It includes a camera fix. Now with more very functional steps

    China:
    ____________________________________________________________________________________
    AZERTY patch 07/29/11
    For our french users. Do not flash this unless you use the azerty key layout.

    OCed:

    Non-OCed:
    ____________________________________________________________________________________
    Multi-touch patch
    I said I wouldn't create this. I decided to do it because others are creating it without warning of potential damage. There is a high risk of damaging your display with this. Our phone was not design for multi-touch. It surges the the connections in the display and renders them useless. I will not support this patch. I only created it and am now releasing it with a warning.


    Flash in recovery.

  • ngiordanongiordano June 2011

    There's too many to post. Maybe someone could start a thread

  • ReeSilvaReeSilva June 2011

    I'm so tired of say CONGRATULATIONS. Every work u guys do is always another awesome work. Thank u.

  • ngiordano - Great job, man! Love the CM7! I've been having a lot of buggy issues w/ CM7.1.0 RC0, but this should work wonders. Just wondering what you meant by "Fix permissions" under the installation procedure.

    Thanks for all your hard work, dude!

  • ngiordanongiordano June 2011

    If you're using ClockworkMod recovery, go in advanced. You'll see it

  • iElliieViElliieV June 2011

    Time to try this out. :D

  • @giordano - Ok, thanks!

  • My wife love cm7, Now I want one for my, strange the development in and the community of the cliq saludos chicos

  • LuthiumLuthium June 2011

    full_9 installed! so far so good :D

  • When I got to add my google account so I can sync my contacts its only letting me try to add and exchange account. Also the sym key is working on the update but it seems like a lot of the the buttons are missing

  • JassyCliqJassyCliq June 2011

    @Supamike114 Have you flashed Gapps?
    It seems like you havent thats why i ask.

    And about the sym key thing, yes I have noticed that but I haven't had any issues with that, there are a lot of shortcuts on the physical keyboard, which is a lot faster than pressing the sym key, you might wanna try those =) There might or might not be more on the sym key, i highly doubt it but it might be possible

  • ngiordanongiordano June 2011

    Me too


    Info in the first post about the Gapps.

  • djmurphixdjmurphix June 2011

    difference from 6/5/11 through 6/16/11?


    also does this have darktremor script a2sd? just wondering..can i be able to apply it myself to this particular rom?

  • LuthiumLuthium June 2011

    anyone tried Link2SD on this ROM?

  • JassyCliqJassyCliq June 2011

    @djmurphix


    The latest changelog: http://cm-nightlies.appspot.com/?device=morrison

    (it was in the  op)

    and about dt's a2sd theres a version i know of that has worked for some ill pass you a link

  • djmurphixdjmurphix June 2011

    thanks @jassycliq i ask because im one of those that use this as a primary n play lots of games n do a lot of texting so storage is a must and 200mb(internal) is just too small for me.. THANKS! if u can pass me that link.

  • ngiordanongiordano June 2011

    And all the games would have moved over to the SD just fine using native...I give up.

    I'm keeping it as CM as possible. I will release custom mods down the road.

  • JassyCliqJassyCliq June 2011

    Yeah native app2sd is a lot better.
    Not to mention its native + CM tweaks which basically moves most apps
    And its more accurate also

  • ngiordanongiordano June 2011

    And if you're wondering why it leaves some behind...they all do. That's how it works. If you check your phone memory after using DT, you'll see a decrease as well.

  • djmurphixdjmurphix June 2011

    why is this smaller full_9 smaller(size[zip file]) than your previous build? tweaks removed??

  • ngiordanongiordano June 2011

    3rd party apps are removed. I have links at the bottom of the post. Other stuff can be found in the Market for free.

  • phinphin June 2011

    Yay! Great work fellas!  Im really liking this.  Wtih Zeam im getting some awesome speeds.  :)

  • djnoahdjnoah June 2011

  • JassyCliqJassyCliq June 2011
