For those people that enjoy the use of the Genius button and Dragon Dictation.
This is the Genius button app that came stock with Espresso Froyo put into a flashable zip. It was taken from the Espresso Sense Rom and has been confirmed working on CM7. I have also included the app called Button Shortcut (free on market) in the zip to make things easier. It can be used to open any app using the Genius Button / longpress search button. The Genius app should also work on HTC Froyo Roms too. Much thanks to the CM team for making CM7 compatable with these apps.
This needs to be flashed/installed from ClockworkMod Recovery. Install it just
like you would flash a rom. You should not need to wipe anything first.

Yes it actually works very well. There is a setting so it doesn't have to verify your contacts now. You can get to it by pressing the button and when it asks you to speak you can hit the menu button.
I'll give it a whirl since vlingo hasnt been working for me on cm7

Works like a charm.
EDIT: LOVING being able to put the genius app on the genius button again. Stuck Navigation onto my camera longpress . MANY thanks for this!
not nearly as fast as vlingo, but has gotten way faster from the 2.1 version. thx bud
A couple of hours after flashing this I begin to have problems with my market and maps. I restored my backup and it works fine. I have tried this on several builds and have the same problem. I use the same builds without it and everything works great. Anyone else having a problem with it? Hope I can get it to work. I want the genius button back. Thanks for posting this.

What kind of problems are you having? I haven't had any issues at all. This should have absolutely no effect on your market. What type of wipe have you done? The slide isn't my primary but I going to sim it up and run it for a bit see if I can help.
I wouldn't think it would cause a problem either. It's the only change I made though. I do a full wipe between each build I try. I have tried on build 19, 21, 23, all with full wipe. On build 19 my market wouldn't download anything. My maps also started force closing. I cleared data and flashed gapps again. Still didn't work. I restored backup and it was fine. On build 21 and 23 my maps worked but my market would not open. It would start to open but close itself again. It doesn't happen right away. It starts several hours later. I have tried each build without and no problems. I do appreciate you posting this though cause at least I can try to get it working. Thanks for trying to figure it out.

Private message me. I have a few things for you to try.
This setup gives me absolutely no problems on my CM-6.1.1, Though there have been problems with the market on CM-7 builds 19 - 23 and I haven't tested this on CM7 due to the variation of people having infrequent problems lately.
One thing I have done though was removed the 'flashable' aspect of it and simply added it to the main ROM being sure to include the /lib folder as well. Works great!
Works on CM 6.1.1
Had to download button shortcut from market. But after I did that and configured it-all is well. And yes it's a bit faster than it was on stock 2.1.

Can you get the driving mode to work as on the stock ROM? I flashed it twice and ran fix permissions but when i say driving mode on it responds with hand free is on, but no icon on status bar and wont announce caller or announce theres a new text. Voice dialing, composing text and web search work though. I was just hoping for the driving mode to work.
This is awesome!
I got my search button and a working Genius Button at the same time on my favorite rom (3rdSense)....sweet!!!!

When i navigate it finds the gps great but it says "getting driving directions" and wont go past this, im running dj05 and 1212 test kernel from jt.
This should probably go in general.
sounds like it's trying to access the internet and can't.
Works fine for me.
Turn off your Wifi if it's on, make sure it launches a data connection. make sure it sees your position with less than 100 meter accuracy in maps before getting directions. If it doesn't, GPS isn't really working and it's going off cellular position etc.
I posted about this in general and didn't get anywhere. I have the exact same problem.
I tried reinstalling, changing kernels, changing dns, even uninstalling then loading a new rom, kernel, dns, and then installing. All with no luck.
It appears to not be able to use the data connection. I say this because just using maps i get up and down arrows on 3g but while "getting directions" neither arrow lights up.
Would love a solution as i love my navigation.

I had this same issue. Maps would work fine and I could get written driving directions but the navigate function would freeze at downloading directions. I wiped my system, installed a different rom, and it works fine now.
Edit: I did not restore maps with titanium, I downloaded it from the market after reinstall.

Hey guys.
I've had this issue with YouTube being unresponsive in portrait mode after going to the main menu after I've watched a video. Hasn't bothered me because I'd just go to landscape to choose the video I wanted.
Today its now gotten worse. After a random xda force close, the shortcut on the homescreen isn't working. Every other shortcut works without issue though. Deleted and re-added the shortcut isn't working. Neither is an uninstall/reinstall. Its also spread to a few other apps.
Anyone encountered this before?
Just a few details:
Overcome 1.4.3 - Hevent upgraded yet, might later to see if the issue continues.
OC 1.4ghz
Nothing strange has happened prior to these random issues (no drops, rom flashes etc)
Sent from inside a whale.
The new xda app did the same to me after it updated itself, so I went to titanium, deleted the new version, then reinstalled the old from backup. No issues since.
Youtube has always had a mind of it's own, whether it's changing orientation, or even playing. Patience is all I can suggest there.
I had a similar problem (somewhat sporadic) and after the overcome 1.6 I don't notice it any more. although it's early days
I'm having similar issues with the keyboard - regardless of the type - stock or purchased - they lag or do not rwspond and all randomly

Clear the youtube data (wipe it from applications). Always helps me with youtube quirkiness.

Have you tried going down to 1.2ghz instead of 1.4? The FC's could be happening when it peaks 1.4ghz and doesn't like it. *shrug*
Only thing similar I've experienced is sometimes the capacitive buttons don't respond, but it's totally random and usually gets fixed if I hit any other button (even one of the other capacitives)
Amiga, is there any chance all your cavorting with gingerbread is a cause?
Its not force closing, it doesn't respond when its in portrait, if I switch to landscape everything is fine.. Really struggling to figure this out. And I've tried going back to stock (dissabling setcpu) and it still happens.

Was browsing the Evo 4G boards and ran across an .apk for the Netflix app on that just released recently. You cant install from the marketplace link, because this app wasnt "technically made for the HD2". But the program works and runs great for me when installing from the .apk listed on that forum.
I'm running Android: Ladyboo MIUI by the way. Test it out. thanks

I saw on the market feed back section that someone with a HD2 has it and is running fine. But I have a HD2 and I am not able to download it now is it on the list. How do you think he was able to get it?

I think it may have to do with whatever core build you are using. The NexusHD2 build for example will more than likely get it but Typhoon CM7 does not. But I was able to install locally and it works now for me.
Will this work for a HD2 Desire Z Nand Zip Rom?

Anyone have any idea what could cause this and possibly how to fix? I just tried reinstalling and power cycling the phone. I also tried to disable mobile network and use WiFi. No luck. When it starts to play the video I see the pause button and the time bar then they disappear and it goes back to the netflix home screen.

How do I install that package? Would I go to the bootloader menu and open the zip file from there and then launch my rom?
HTC HD2, MIUI stock build. Works *just* fine! Thanks a LOT!
Love the new ROM, but Market only works/installs apps through browser is there gonna be an actual market app with an icon?
My Market Icon
I installed [ROM][RC2] HoneyStreak HD7 V1.5 (3.1) and the Market icon was there because I downloaded from the market. The next time after I rebooted, I lost the Market icon. It disappeared and has never come back. I have also lost other icons. I'm not sure how to fix this. Everything worked good on RC1. I need help.
No icons and WiFi with HC
Since I've installed HC RC2, I keep losing my icons. Every time I start back up, I have to set up the WiFi again. This never happened before. Help!!!
Are you sure it's not just a display issue. Some of the icons get cut off on rc2. Try going to menu/settings/applications/manageapplications and scroll through to see if they're there.

My Icons are Back with RC3
After I installed RC3, all my missing Icons returned. I'm still testing but everything looks good so far. Compared to other tablets, this DS7 seems very fast.
I 've been having market issues too. Waiting to install hangs a lot but it works off and on... works more often than not so its not a complaint. Maybe my network. Also a couple reboots and no Bluetooth... not that I use it. Very happy with rc3.

I've been looking around on the web for a solution. I had this problem when I flashed my nook color a month ago. The girlfriend's got hers now, and we are running into the problem of no status bar. No home or back buttons or anything. And the Market doesn't work... I remember I installed a different version of cm7 on mine, after I had this problem the first time. I found a page talking about it...now I cannot find that page. Mine says 7.1.0 encore and works, as does hers...but it doesn't work...So...Hm.
Pardon my noobergy...but... Could I get a hand here? haha.
There's an app on the market called Status Bar Restarter.
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.khanning.statusbarrestarter&hl=en
Two comments say that it works with CM7.
For the market, try going to settings/manage apps/market and clearing the cache. You can also try uninstalling the market update and letting it update again. If all else fails, you could reflash CM7. (Or maybe just gapps - the market is in there.)

We cannot use the market mate :[ , both it and the status bar just instantly crash, or Force close I think it's called. I was told before to use a different version of 7.1.0 encore. But I cannot find that thread anymore.
Have you heard of this? Or am I talking nonsense haha
Hey there. you don't have to open the market to go to settings, click "manage apps," click "market" and clear the cache and maybe uninstall the update.
If you can't get to the settings, you can make a shortcut by long pressing on the launcher and selecting activities (I think) and choosing app drawer (If I remember correctly) and you get the icon with four squares in it.
The market link was for when you got the market working, obviously And you didn't say that the status bar was FCing, just that there was none. In that case, the app probably won't help, anyway.
Like I said before, last resort is to reflash. (Either full or gapps.) hth
Sent from my CM9 NookColor using Tapatalk
Btw, you might try MiRaGe's build. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1344873. The changelog mentions your statusbar problem as fixed. And I'm guessing that reflashing would fix the market problem, anyway...
There are a bunch of alternate builds you could try, too. I'm assuming you are using the official CM7 now, since you didn't say.
