please report other issues and general thoughts on the rom.
Downloading and flashing now! thanks allready!
it works? I tried to get it working the other day and couldn't. either way thank you very very much!!!
same here, great work!
Thanks, giving it a try now
Wow,
Installing as we speak.
I will get back on this...
Well it's running fine for now Great work
MArket is broken, but as you stated it's a beta, maybe you could team up with other adam developers (josh ) to make this one beast of a CM7
Greetz,
couldn't get it to work properly..
First bootloop, then when it booted everything FC'ed..
After another reboot and wipe I could't get past the touch android to begin screen..
Very strange..
I got it booted...
Can't get the market to work though. A good start but needs work before it'd be a daily driver for me. I'll probably go back to vegan soon.
this is sweet, going to try this tomorrow =)
hi thx for your input in our life with Adam
It booted for me after wiping data and cash
First it seemed to be bit glichy and slow with response...
the design with Honey comb like bar is very nice
but WiFi could not connect to my router and i try and try and try and try
and reboot and try
and change permissions on router and try
and no go for me
as for included aps Terminal emulation FC. on me
hym
Looking forward for next version
Now back on Beast
regards
Just installed to take a look. Nice to see cm7 on the Adam. Got wifi going unlike others, but most applications would fc.
Thanks for starting this project.

Thanks a lot DJ_Steve.
Installed it on my PQi Wifi Adam and here are updates so far. ( Wiped data )
1. Firefox FC but installing it from SD card again and its working fine now
2. Market FC. Tried the Market trick ( clearing data on service, fc market and reboot) but didn't work
3. Installed Titanium backup from SD card apk. Works fine
4. Used Ti Backup to restore some apps like thumb keyboard and they work fine
5. Installed Dolphin Browser HD but it starts in portrait mode and I cannot click accept button.
6. I got a prompt on first boot to install some apps like facebook, gmail etc but they all failed with a FC on market.
So far the ROM runs really fast and working great. I need dig the PQi toggle app and install. I like the HC look and the smoothness of the ROM.
Kudos .. and Thanks ..
Will post after more testing.
Have you talk with mad-murdock about the changes you made to make it work? It would be best to get this included with the official builds.
That said, god job on this. Similar issues to arvi007 so far. Firefox and Market FC. Terminal Emulator causes a reboot. Red LED on the side of the Adam is on all of the time.
I'll keep playing and see what else I can come up with.
Crud, not long after I said this I rebooted and it died. Had to NVFlash to get it back.
Not seen most of those issues here. But their is bugs. Ill see if I cant build from source at a point soon

Yeah, getting quite a few Force Closes.
Fruit Ninja THD for example closes due to Webkit problems, you said you removed the stock browser, so these probably go hand in hand.
Dolphin HD also crashes for an unknown reason.

Great start, will definitely be following this, would be great to get a stable CM7 build on the Adam
Mostly Working
I have a PQ+Wifi adam and i got CM7 working using this build but when I did a shut down power off and try to power on again the device never boots. I have to debrick it. Otherwise besides the browser/Camera issues and a FC in gmail when opening a message with an attachment it was a great start towards a fully functional CM build
Edit:
Fixed the reboot problem by not using Clockwork Recovery. I wonder if this is related to the issue CW /CM has on the G2 were when you power it off it goes to recovery instead of completely turning off.
I somehow got the market working. However, Firefox does not work.
Being CM7 is there CIFS and TUN support? I really need something to let me access windows shares from my corporate network over VPN.
I should have tried it before I went back to Beast and got all comfy
Looking forward to using this, but will wait till the bugs get worked out. Enjoying Beast at the moment.

Similar to my thread based around CM 6.1 progress and reports on the latest nightlies, I present what should become a telling collection of anecdotal evidence.
Ruby 1.1.4 was released and many users are very satisfied with its performance. As 1.1.1 now appears old hat, and its original thread is waning and reads like War and Peace, please refer to this post for future observations. What I would like to see is:
1. Bugs encountered that are repeatable only after a full wipe
2. Glowing reviews and/or recommendations for bits some users are unfamiliar with
3. Odd errors that perhaps we can assist with (ie. known fix)
4. Chatter about the upcoming release of Ruby 1.2 for the Inc
I look forward to any and all suggestions, input, feedback, and all around camradery. Also, keep the flames to yourself

Well, thanks for the opportunity...
I have been using Ruby 1.1.4 as my daily driver for the past two weeks or so and find it to be perfect for my use. Although I have strayed to check out the latest and greatest, HD, Z, Feather, etc. I always come back to Ruby.
Everything works. I've added the popular mods, i.e. signal fix, etc., removed some apps that I don't like or use and I'm really happy with Ruby overall. Looking forward to 1.2.
Can't say the same for some of the vanilla apps like mail and gallery, but there are suitable replacements for those available via the market.
My thanks to the Ruby crew...

Full build. Running stable so far, no noted issues.
I've been running 1.1.4 for a couple of days. I don't use Bluetooth very often, so I've only installed the RIL patch. Together with ADW Launcher I'm very happy with this ROM.
The only bug (or missing feature) I found is in regards to the Pattern lock. When I enable it, the unlock screen no longer shows up so I can't use the music controls. However, if I enable the PIN-base lock the unlock screen works just fine. In all Sense ROMs whenver I enable the Pattern lock the unlock (tabular) screen does not go away. I filed a bug at CC ROM's website. This seems like something trivial, so hopefully they'll get it in in the next release.
EDIT: You might want to add to the OP the url link for the RIL update, I've been using it and haven't experience any 3g issues.

As far as I know, it's less of a missing feature than a feature in itself. CM, ShadowROM, all the AOSPs I've tried have that "feature."
However, I too am annoyed by it xD But it seems intentional.
Where can I find the RIL patch?

Url is on my previous post...is the same for CM and Ruby. Has also been added to OP.
Nice to see my patch is still doing something for you guys. I wonder if they will ever release an official version again.
I almost feel like pulling down the code and compiling a version with the fixes in it...
Can we use the Gapps zip from 1. 1. 1....
How is GPS working in this version? I don't know if it was the RIL or 1.1.1 but I noticed that the cell triangulation (ie. the blue circle that pops up when you first open maps) broke somewhere along the way. Pinpointing GPS would work but it was very slow (takes at least a minute or more).
At first I didn't mind the wait but I realized it caused a lot of apps that require your location (Poynt, Where, etc.) to stop working.
Odd thing is on a clean install GPS pinpointing would always be almost instant but subsequent to that it would get slower and slower. Curious if anyone else is encountering the same.
I have three questions about 1.1.4:
Does EMMC work on Ruby? I mean like in gallery and music. Itt works on Cyanogen but now Shadowrom or inc does. Thats the biggest determining factor of my using Ruby.
is it possible to get the black vanilla messenger from Cyanogen?
Also, the black bar theme that Ruby has, gives you the HTC battery icon, however I prefer the vanilla android battery. Is it possible to make a theme from the changes I made in Cyanogen?
Also if you want EMMC to mount on windows, this fix was posted I dont know if it works on ruby, if you're brave you can give it a try:
http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/detail?id=2236
Ok. So im a little confused on the bluetooth issue. Is there a link to the fix or no?

I would suggest using the one posted in the 1.1.4 download link. The op in that link also suggested to use only 1.1.4 themes...meaning that if the 1.1.1 you were using has not been ported over to 1.1.4 don't try to install it.

I've had the 1.1.4 (clean install) for 4-5 days, so hard to tell, but on Tuesday I used the GPS with Maps for about an hour and it worked great. I'll report in a few weeks if I ever use the GPS again.

EMMC works on Ruby. However, it seems that you can only mounted on a Mac, not on a PC. I connected the phone to my PC at work and it only recoginized the SD card. However, when I connected it to my Macbook it detected both EMMC and SD card.
By "black vanilla messager" you are referring to the Text Messaging app or the Google Talk? If you are talking about text messaging, there is a setting that allows you to change the background to black. In regards to the themes, I would suggest you stick with the themes made for 1.1.4 (as in the download link). If you want specific changes to the them the OP suggested contacting the created of the specif theme you are interested in.

If you go to the url link that has the "RIL update" in the first post it has a link to another thread where you can download the Bluetooth fix. It is called "BT" something.
Okay thank you, for the info. Is Ruby more stable then Cyanogens stable release?
It is finally here!

...and brings hardware acceleration
Straight from nightlies to RC........ wow
Ok, for those interested, i do not believe this will have the video lag fix.. i do not get how this can be an RC level release....
I just installed it and it seems to work fine, including YouTube. No lag detected, at least on my Nook Color.
Anyone know if the sleep issue has been resolved?
Or if the menu lag/garbage collection issue has been fixed? When I tried it about a week ago certain apps such as Reddit is Fun were basically unusable due to the extreme menu lag.
thank you XDA
You've given me a very nice tablet for cheap.
Glad to donate. This is really fun!
CyanogenMod-7.0.0-RC4 has arrived
CyanogenMod-7.0.0-RC4 has arrived
http://www.cyanogenmod.com/blog/cyanogenmod-7-0-0-rc4-has-arrived
The next round of RCs have arrived. From RC2 until now has mainly been bug fixes and we’re getting near the final state. In this release, there may still be some lingering GPS issues on the Evo and the N1 call audio bug hasn’t been fully fixed. But if you were happy with the previous RCs/Nightlies on your device, there is no reason not to update to this one.
That being said, this is the most stable version of CyanogenMod 7 to date and will probably be the last RC before the final rolls around. The most notable new fixes are on the tablet side of devices. The Nook Color, for example, now has working hardware acceleration. Because of these fixes, many of them are receiving their first RC. There was also a big fix from AOSP for EGL issues, which is why all devices bumped to RC4 from RC3.
Feel free to grab CM7-RC4 (or RC3.14159265358979323846264338327 as we call it internally) from ROM Manager, our forums, or our mirror network if you prefer manual downloads.

Try the new version of Wake Timer in the Market. Works for me on Froyo.
Are there any major issues in RC4 that should make me hesitate to move up from Nookie Froyo to CM7?
Does the internal media partition work properly on this ROM?
Sent from my Nook Color!
Only issue I had was that I had to manually install google apps to get the market working.
Other than that- I miss the Tablet Tweaks.
can i flash this over the 29 nightly with out wiping
Yes.

Nightly over nightly gave me no problems.
You might be fine.
Worst case is that you would have to boot into recovery to re-flash the rom and wipe data and cache, so just make sure to back up your current rom.

The issue was that you couldn't actually sleep the device... death sleep or something in the kernel and the nook color. Basically this means the device was always on and using about 2% of the battery per hour even while "off". That pretty much means it can't go on the wifes NC.
Where do you get Android marketplace apk? I just flashed this and now I don't have a market place. I'm coming from phiremod 5.2.

quick question from someone who's never messed with nightlys before my nook...why would I install this instead of nightly build 32? I'm guessing the RC4 would be just a really good nightly build that they feel is ready for release, yes?
Edit: I just noticed that the RC4 was just posted, so I think what I said is basically right.
Another edit (sorry): also, can someone tell me what clearing the cache does (or doesn't do if you decide not to do it) when you switch or update roms?

The cache consists entirely of files that can be thrown away as they get regenerated by apps as needed. When you upgrade your ROM it's recommended you clear the cache so that the system and its apps don't get confused by cached files that represent scenarios that are not relevant to the ROM you're running.

I would really like to know if this is fixed in the RC release too.
Just flashed it to my NC. I went back to Zeam launcher just becuase it's what I was using on Nookie Froyo and I had all the settings & shortcuts backed up already. I also added Button Savior for those times when the status bar buttons are hidden. I really like the "lens" lock screen as it's much more convenient to swipe down on a 7" screen than across.
So far I haven't run into anything that doesn't work. Titanium Backups of my user apps went in quite happily. My Angry Birds can rest easy, their hard work has not been in vain
The only hitch so far - my Titanium restore of Thumb Keyboard did not work as expected. Under input settings, the checkmark refused to go on. I re-installed from the Market, enabled it successfully, and then restored the data only from Titanium.
update 18/08/2011
changed some minor things here, and split build into 2 versions
changelog:
Added ad-hoc wifi support
Added a cool new feature that im not revealing yet, little challenge for you folks
Split build into 2 versions, one for wi-fi only devices and one for 4g ones, wifi only build is exactly same as 4g except all the 3g/4g related services and apps have been removed - should save battery somewhat
hello again folks,
some good news here and some bad news.
firstly this builds being released as a Release version as its pretty much 100% working now,
screenshots are unfortunatly broken again though as ive had to replace alot of files to get rest working, its a kernel related issue and cant be easily fixed until dell drop the kernel next month hopefully.
changelog:
Rebased Yet Again onto a newer 3.2 device build,
Fixed MTP Usb support so mounting of storage is alot more usable
hacked the hell out of most of the system apps to get them working right for streaks screen res.
launcher works properly again
default lcd density of 120 again which is perfectly usable.
camera supports upto 720p video, 1080p doesnt work right so removed the ability for now
resized the partitions so that their is about 6gb for apps and data and ~8.1gb remaining for user storage - thats a issue in the way honeycomb manages storage
1080p and 720p video playback works perfectly also
Install Instructions:
1. Download the streakdroid zip from below, this contains all the files and drivers required to flash your device to honeycomb
2. Extract the zip to a folder on your pc - I recommend c:\flash and will use that path in this example
3. Backup your streak7 internal storage if you have not already as it WILL BE WIPED
4. Backup your streak7 internal storage if you have not already as it WILL BE WIPED
5. Backup your streak7 internal storage if you have not already as it WILL BE WIPED
6. Turn off your 7 and unplug the usb cable from it, then hold BOTH volume keys down and connect the usb cable, if done correctly your pc should detect the apx device. choose to update the driver, choose the second option then let me choose from a list, choose have disk then navigate to c:\flash\usbpcdriver and choose the only one it shows (Nvidia boot recovery driver for mobile devices)
7. Double click the Download.bat file in the c:\flash directory and wait a while it will take some time depending on the speed of your pc and usb ports.
8. Once the box disappears hold down power on your 7 untill dell logo appears (can take a little while) then wait for a few mins for some honeycomb tasting goodness.

Alright, I will start buggy testing this and get back to you... it just booted. WOOHOO!!
Bug 1, can't install anything. I've tried to install things from the market and from my card... no go. Just say's "Cannot open file" .
Edit: Rebooted twice to see if that would fix the problem... no go.
didnt get that here, tho i suspect i know the issue,
replace the files in the flash folder with the ones attached, and reflash
edit: sorry fixed the files in the attached zip now, it should flash
Flashed it just now. nice boot animation.

On a side note. Is there any way you could create the same kind of setup so its easy to flash the stock partitions back? I know how to get it working via nvflash but this would make recovery so much faster lol
Market working now, everything seems to work, bluetooth, youtube in landscape and portrait and the camera is working perfect. I have to lower the lcd density to 105 for the kindle to app work but no biggie. This is perfect, don't really see a need for an official build from Dell now.
Although I kinda miss the launcher icons from the asus transformer build and the weather widget, anyone know how to port those over?

Congratulations DJ_Steve! Yet another masterful release! I have taken peeks at some other projects you've worked with, including the Nokia N800 OS changes(Have one myself!), and I am thoroughly impressed and humbled by your innate ability to develop quickly and with the best flourishes.

CM 10.2 Android 4.3 built for, and working on Pollux_Windy, once again thanks to Sony using such nice, open-source-friendly devices.
Working:
WiFi
Compass + sensors
Sound
Bluetooth
Front + Rear Camera
External SD (including ExFAT)
Not Working:
GPS
This is for the Pollux_Windy (SGP311) Wifi ONLY tablet. It should work on the SGP312 (32 GB wifi only) as well, but will NOT work on the Pollux (with LTE).

Tried to flash this but i'm getting an error about device build prop not matching requirements. I had a 312 rom on first, and flashed a 311 stock rom, but still get the error. My device is 311 by default.
Do i need to edit my build.prop? Even though my device shows as SGP311?
EDIT: Ah nevermind, i had the stock bootloader still installed. Doh!
If anyone needs Gapps I found them here:

Updated to 30 July build - includes the new Focal camera app. Yes, it has a few bugs with tablets and orientation. It's known.
Is root possible yet? I tried the supersu zip that was attached in op, but still needs the binary according to the supersu app. Do we need to adb push the binary?
Edit: Nevermind, just tried the latest supersu and works fine.
I can't get a restricted user to work for the life of me. All kinds of processes are force stopping and I couldn't pick trebuchet from the list on setup either, though I did manage to work around that with Apex eventually, though Apex kept crashing too.
I assume apps might have to support this (or at least launchers?) But core processes?
I did dirty flash so it's possible that has something to do with it.
Still digging around. I'll clean flash later to retry restricted users too.

Restricted profiles are not tested or a priority right now in CM I believe.
Got this working on my xtz SGP311 seems really quick so far recovery plays nice, only real issues I've encountered is that the screen flickers black every now and then using the aosp browser and MX player pro doesn't work as android 4.3 isn't supported yet which has nothing to do with the rom.
WiFi and GPS seem to working used google maps to find a location and navigate there had no issues with those yet.
Definitely something different over the Sony ui and less cluttered just need the sony remote
Gonna have a play with it and see how I get on with it lots of options to play with hehe

Check out the project by @Apache14 that brings infrared remote control support to non Sony ROMs!
Are you sure gps is working? I don't think it should be in this ROM...
I had a go at the open source IR by apache but had no luck getting it to work, but I'm not sure if I installed it right.
I'll have another play with GPS today as I've got more time and let you know I could have jumped the gun on this one lol. I quickly downloaded an app called GPS test and although it says the GPS is on it doesn't show anything else like coordinates or location I'll keep playing for now though.

Thanks a lot for throwing this together... everything seems to be working great, I'm impressed by focal.
I'm still struggling with is the absence of tablet UI (trying to hit the home softkey in landscape is impossible, so I've been forced to full!screen, which is working well), but it's a small price to pay for the jump from Sony's 4.1.2 to a functional 4.3 Rom.

Interesting. Out of interest, how do you use your tablet ? I'm just trying to work out if there is any link or difference - personally I thought the same, that tablet was good, until I used my Nexus 10... Then I was "sold" - tablet UI was sub-optimal. I tend to use the tablet with 2 hands - one holding it, another free across the top for use. I find keeping navigation to the centre more logical personally, and more ergonomic. It also keeps the notification tray at the top, consistent with the phone. At other times, I use the tablet as a "monitor" and type with a Bluetooth keyboard, where I do not interact with the touchscreen much (except at arm's length), and find phablet UI quite convenient. Moreso than I felt with tablet UI.
It's intriguing though. I am sure I can look at readding it some time, but I'm fairly busy so it will take a while. I noticed Sony seem to be moving to phablet UI for 4.2 as well though...
I hold mine on the sides and mostly interact with my thumbs, thus central on screen controls are hard to reach. But, to each his own. I also use Thumb Keyboard exclusively on my tablets, much more natural than trying to type with one hand holding with the other.
so yeah i finally got around to testing the GPS navigation and it just says "Searching for GPS" the whole time so confirmed its not working.
i also found a issue with the swipe to type on the AOSP keyboard as soon as i tried to use swiping it force closed the keyboard, not a big issue just thought id mention it.
i noticed you've done a couple of updates as well whats the best way to update the rom just flash as usual using the file in op?

Just like with CM nightlies, just flash the latest update right over whatever you have.
In rare cases other changes will be needed, maintainers will usually let you know in these cases.
I'm investigating GPS on 10.1 on the windy - it's proving to be a bit of a headscratcher, although it has many of the hallmarks of the same problem we had with the modem on mint (Xperia T) months ago. Unfortunately, we can't use the same fix/workaround we used on mint.
pulser, may want to check the CM10.1 thread for my SMD debugging patch, might give some useful info - although what I need to do is get a build environment together for stock kernels so I can apply that patch to .370 for comparison.
i hate to sound like a noob but i am still learning lol is it safe to just flash the updates with cwm or is it best to do it with the flash tool?
it seems like gps has got a lot of people scratching their heads at the moment but im sure with so many looking into it there is sure to be a solution soon
Edit: its OK I went ahead and flashed the update using cwm and it worked, I'm to impatient to wait lol but at least I've learned something
Updated to 10th August build
Will you continue to tweak now that official nightlies are out?

Great work man!
Works beautifully, and it seems much faster than CM11.
I may have done something wrong though; I seem to have lost root access somehow.
Edit: Never mind, somehow a reboot fixed that.
Running great so far. Still searching how to disable the volume key flip on rotate though. Haven't found any bugs yet!

Had it running. Root was all messed up and it kept erroring when I went to Superuser menu to fix it like OP. Now when I reinstall the ROM from my SD card I get Status 7 failure. Some symlinks failed.
*disregard* gotta wipe data/factory reset to make it work. Not just manually format sys data cache. Oh well... Maybe root will work this time....
Sent from my Optimus G Pro using Tapatalk
To get root access working you must go to developer options and under "Root access" select "Apps and ADB" That will make superuser functional.
Bug/Issue: 1. Settings crashes when going into Superuser and selecting settings. 2. GPS does not work. I couldn't get mapmyrun to get a gps signal.
EDIT* 3. Stock browser does not work well. When browsing a site such as google search there are black squares covering the screen. It happens as well with the google search app from playstore.
Overall, it works well
I can confirm. GPS does not work.

Looks like I jacked up superuser and GPS merging performance settings. I'll try fixing them next time.

I was about to confirm, but saw this so will look forward to the next version.
One thing I noticed when I tried enabling the swap file with Ram Manager Free (I found that giving this phone 256MB of swap file on kernels that support it makes it work MUCH better with heavy multitasking). It seemed to enable in the app, but when I checked the memory it showed only 64MB instead of 256MB. I checked and ZRAM was not enabled. Any idea where that 64MB came from?
I'm going to like this ROM once these few issues get fixed. It's a lot like the AOIP ROM I have been using for a while.
Which reminds me, one thing that is missing that I really liked was the ability to adjust the hard buttons back light. I like to have it set so it is on whenever the screen is on. Really disliked the auto turn-off after a few seconds even while the screen is still on. Would it be possible to add the settings options like AOIP and CM ROMs have?

Sweet. Because minus those two things. I'm loving the slim Roms on the exhibit. Its so fast!

4.6 has working superuser and GPS should work. Try performance control with 4.6 if 4.8 is inconveniencing.
I too am thrilled to note the appearance of yet another choice in the Exhibit ROM stable.
Very reassuring to me that this ROM presents no issues FC-ing out-of-the-box. Factory reset works, too. First time in quite a while that installation on my phone needed no extra steps.
I am trying the 4.6 version to see if that helps with GPS and the other issue.

Will you let me know if gps works for you with 4.6? I've fixed superuser fc, but uncertain if performance settings caused gps conflict.
Yes, I'll let you know ASAP.
Someone else may beat me to the punch, though; I won't get back to my wifi until Tuesday.
Currently back on Dark CM. I did however make a Nandroid of Slim.
I was so impatient to fully test Slim, I manually installed most of my apps from the Play store.
You can't restore Ti backups without having root access. I thought maybe you could restore even if you couldn't create backups, but nope.
Weird as it might sound I was interested in using my non-rooted phone for a while. It's been so long since I used a non-rooted device, I wanted to see the limitations imposed.

Tested GPS on GMaps and Map Quest and I can confirm that GPS is working in 4.6.
EDIT: My mistake, @danny8 is correct. GPS is not working in 4.6. nor is it working in 4.9. When I switched to "device only", GPS did not work at all.
One bug I did want to mention is that I am receiving fc's when trying to access SlimCenter.

I am also receiving these big black squares when using stock browser or Google Search in 4.6.
Well, I installed 4.6 test bed by dirty flashing on top of my setup of the original SlimKat release.
I cannot confirm GPS is working for me. (Deleted.) Update: Rebooted restored my voice service. Still messing with GPS which is not working
I confirm SU is working. Ti Backup allows me to restore apps.
I may play with this some more. Will update here if anything noteworthy pops. Otherwise rolling back to DarkCM.
