[Q] [CM] Nightly 54 vs. 7.0.1 Stable? - Nook Color General

Hi all,
Sorry, I am not able to post in the developer forum yet but had read that CM7.0.1 will be released shortly... Is that the same as the Nightly 54? Or it's gonna be tagged as 7.0.1 stable?
Thanks.

You are going to see an RC release before you get a stable release so you will have to wait a little bit longer for a stable release.

well whats new in 54?

check it here: cm-nightlies.appspot.com

I have installed the nightly 54 and it's a lot snappier than the cm7 stable. I don't have the oc kernel installed yet and so it's running at 925 currently but it's. already showing a significant improvement! good job Dalingrin.
I have checked the changelog under cyanogenmod menu and it's showing the latest nightly as 7.0.1!

it could be a test build, because im sure they would mark it as stable

The quadrant scores of nightly 54 are off the hook! I scored 1497 first run and 1585 second test. OC to 925.

Hard to get excited over that when my latest test kernels are getting 2800+ in quadrant.

strangely...with 54 + the latest dalingrin OC kernel...I get anywhere from 2400-2700+ on quadrant.
I am so truly amazed at the potential of this lil' gadget...I bet BN is too

Overclock for Darky´s v10 RC6?

I want to overclock my SGS, and I´m running Darky´s ROM v10, Gingebread 2.3.3
Wich kernel should I use? Thanks in advance :3
I recommend Talon Kernel ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1057705 ). It doesn't have a few usefull for me features (like swap or compcache) but work perfectly. It's very stable.

Sounds good, but any chances on overclocking over 1.2 GHz?
If u wish to do that i'd reccomend you to switch to a cm7 based rom and install tk-glitch kernel, that supports overclock up over to 1.5GHz
PD: si, soy el guzmanus de eol, el mundo es un pañuelo xD
I had Darky´s v10 RC6 and talon Kernel and it worked incredibly.
Regards.
Actually all ROMs based on Cyanogen's mod are very unstable. Actually they are only for ppl who know how to create workarounds (or repair) some of problems. I don't recommend these roms and kernels. Maybe in June/July these ROMs will be enough stable to daily usage
From what I know actually developers of Talon Kernel are working towards increased overclocking. They created patch that support overclocking to 1,3 GHz but it was deleted day after (probably it was bugged ). I think we should wait.
Btw... Is it worth to overclock CPU? Actually all apps and games can't fully utilize 1 GHz CPU.

This is not true at all! I've been using CM7 for a week now OC'd at 1.5 without any issues. The only niggle was setting up the voltages for the OC, but other than that it's very stable and doesn't get the credit it deserves!
Also, the devs are very helpful and have their own Q&A thread if anything does for wrong (which for me it hasn't).
It's defiantly been stable enough for daily use IMHO since the 06/05Nightly build. & battery life isn't that bad either (~70% of stock) which I expect can only improve with releases esp as the devs admit the sleep code is a bit faulty.
I'm not saying everyone should jump on it, but I wouldn't just dismiss straight away. Give it a try & you may be pleasantly surprised
Anyway, shouldn't this be in the Q&A section and not development?
I used CM7 nightly build a few days ago and It wasn't working properly. I'm checking every week a new builds looking for "stable" version. I have problems with making a call to anyone, problems with mount external microsd card and more. I haven't tested OC because I don't need it. It's true that CM devs are very helpfull I'm still waiting for version which will be stable for me, and all features which I need will work properly. I have CM ROM on my old HTC G1, and this ROM was amazing so I still wait for stable build for SGS

That's curious. Did you check the Kernel wiper you're supposed to use each time you flash/upgrade? It supposedly gets rid of most issues. Anyway, I guess maybe I just got lucky with it working well for me then.
Hmmm... I will check again Maybe I forgot about it this time

Those problems you talk about are mostly produced because of wrong bootloaders, specially if you come from a gingerbread ROM. Try flashing froyo bootloaders and then using CM7, it is awesomely stable

[Q] Cant get past 925Mhz on CM7...

Hey, i just updated to CM7.0.3 from Nookie Froyo. With froyo it was clocked at 1100Mhz and it was very snappy. However, CM7 is limited to a max speed of 925Mhz which is ok, but it doesnt seem right since i just flashed the latest kernal. So far i have tried reinstalling the rom+kernal, clearing the dalvik, and so on but it still has not changed. I had even installed the latest uboot 1.2(says Reading Forever on boot). What am i doing wrong?
Every time you flash a CM7 Nightly or CM7 Stable which both have their own kernels maxed at 925, you then have to re-flash the separate Overclock kernel to 1.1 (stable) or to 1.3 (test builds). From your post not sure if that was done. Once you do that, then you can change the speed in CM7.

I think all builds released after Nightly 61 on May 5th (including Stable 7.0.3) will need the modified kernel.
Worse case scenario: if it doesn't boot, hold the Nook button + power while turning on, then let go, get into recovery, re-flash 7.0.3 and you'll be back to where you were.
Thanks man, but doesn't seem to really work. It just shows the word "Android" horizontally on the left side of the screen, and then it shows a tiny white dash in the top right corner(held vertically). Then it just stays that way. Hate to take up your time, but any ideas about that?

Restore your last nandroid and flash the latest version of Clockwork 3.0.2.8, I suspect that you still are using 3.0.1. I had the same problem a couple of weeks ago, then use the kernel attached in the post above and it absolutely should work.

Here's the original one:

Otherwise, try the latest nightly perhaps? (With the modified ext4 0424 kernel)

I think he's still on Clockwork 3.0.1 and needs to update. If he doesn't he'll continue having problems like this.
Dont worry, im on 3.0.2.8 for CW. About to try that new kernel...
I am getting the same exact results on 7.03 stable. My nook is 4 days old, went straight to this build. Booting from SD card
The nightly build 74 did the trick! It finally shows the other frequencies. I cant thank you enough!

[Q] which firmware do you recommend

Hello!
I have nook color rooted (1.0.1 with autonooter).
But today I want to update my firmware and I don`t know which firmware is the best.
I want to flesh new firmware to eMMC and use it as main firmware on my tablet.
What do you recommend?
CM7 Nightlies
Best in my opinions, it has the tablet tweaks to.
Cm7 is the ONLY way to go and have your nook be useable

I second the CM7 suggestion. But dont go for the stable release, either use a recent nightly or CM7.1 RC1. Otherwise you'll have a bug where the device doesnt go into sleep mode properly and wastes battery life.

I recommend dalingrins cm7 3.1 beta with OC kernel.
Been running it for months and have zero issues. Nightlys will be buggy as hell most of the time. Have mine over clocked to 1200mhz and it is super fast and stable with 2300 to 2600 qaudrant scores. As far as sleep of death, I don't have the issue as long as I don't let the screen time-out, I turn the screen off manually.

Do you have a link? My searching comes up with nothing but a kernel.
Just follow this guide,> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1030227 and in place of where it says download cm7 nightly use 3.1 beta instead. And use dalingrins OC kernel.
edit : here is the 3.1 beta rom > http://romshare.deployfu.com/downloads/172/33/update-cm-7.1.0-RC0-encore-2.6.32-beta3.1.zip
Isn't dalingrin's OC stuff included in the latest CM nightlies? You could step the processor up to 1200 MHz without replacing the kernel.
well you could flash a nightly with the oc kernel but then if you flash the 3.1 beta then it would over write the oc kernel.
[QUOTE=>DARKMAN
Nightlys are more stable than the stable releases now a days. I have no idea how you could come to the conclusion that nightlys are as buggy as hell. What you are telling him to install is an outdated beta that is much less stable than the nightys in my experience.

I meant in terms of screen usage. It feels weird, but I haven't ruled it out, I run cyanogen nighties on my phone and they're great, but the nook version feels like it needs some more work, especially compared to MIUI, I haven't really spent a lot of time with either. I've come to this conclusion after just a few hours experience with both on the nook and having used both on various other devices.
I have been running 3.1 beta for months and have zero issues, unlike nightlys. Wifi dropout, SOD etc.
Anyways, he asked for recommendations that is mine.
If you were running a ROM and having zero issues and great performance would you switch?

stable 7.0.3 LINK released 2011-05-08
release candidate 7.1.0 rc-1 LINK released 2011-06-27
nightly 148-169 LINK released every night
@ >DARKMAN<
when you say 3.1 beta, do you mean stable, 7.0.3?
i was confused b/c 3.1 beta seems like it should be 7.3.1, but i dont see that anywhere.
"stable", "rc1", "nightly" are terms for the custom ROM, in this case, the CM7.
What DM mentioned was the kernel (sets of drivers for CM7 ROM) not the ROM itself.
And I don't even know Dalingrin has this beta one.
Dalingrin built a Rom off of cm7. You can only get it from Rom manager. I linked to it in a previous post. Or google rom manager and look for it. It is a Rom.
Sent from my SCH-I510 using Tapatalk
Lots of info in here -- I recommend the latest nightly
http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=encore
All recent nightlies (not sure since which release #) include Dalingrin's kernel, so there is no need to flash separately, you'll just need to run the gapps installer if you're following instructions to get started.

[Kernel][cm9] Galaxy Exhibit II 4g

Hi guys, Decided to make a new thread as since you guys asked for it
The kernel is based off the work of Arco, forfivo and castanaIT.
Id like to also note please use extra caution when useing extreme edition kernels. (the overvolt).
For those of you that decide you dont want this kernel you can use this to restore back to core2's 11-09 2.6.35 kernel without doing a full rom flash.
When using either kernel 1.7ghz is most likely gonna be the highest you want to run on. @1.8 we either become unstable or get too much heat.
This part im just going to relink the old build for my first attempts. They mostly didnt work.(just for archiveing purposes)
Beta v1, Beta v2, Beta v3, Beta v4
In this section ill list the newer builds and what they added.
Beta 5.2
Adds Govs: brazilianwax, intellidemand, interactivex, lagfree, lazy, lionheart,
lulzactive, ondemandx, savagedzen, scary, smartass1/2, smoothass, wheatley
Adds OC up to 1.8( 1.8 only stable in OV edition but still included just because)
Beta v5.2 + Overvolt v2
Adds the same as above but uses more volts for the higher frequencies to try and make them more stable.
(Was later reported that its stable but gets pretty Hot)
Adds same as above but lowers the volts a little to try and find a happy spot between stable and temps.

Hey guys, im working on makeing beta 6. When i tested the build wifi didnt work, however i havent changed anything with the wifi so if anyone whos willing to do wipes and stuff possibly try this build? http://d-h.st/ouL
I would do the wipes and stuff my self but this is my only phone/daily used device. So wipeing isnt exatly something id like to do. I did try wipeing cache/fix permissions but that didnt work. Id guess it would work with wipes cause all the wifi code is untouched from beta 5, but before i go telling people to wipe id like to know if that works. Some people said beta 5 broke wifi too which i guess is possible as with this beta 6. However i believe it to be due to not wipeing not the kernel it self.
I clean installed 9/28 plus gapps and this but it broke wifi and usb connection. I chose smartassv2 plus 368 min and 1.4 max and it immediately froze. Am gonna download the latest stable and do this again.

All future builds should work fine without a rom wipe or cache/dalvik as of right now.(beta6)
Sure ill add it to my second/reserved post for now.
Also gonna update the OP with links to 5.1 which is an updated beta5 that shouldnt break wifi.
Beta 6.3 overvolt edition is out now too.
I wiped davlik/cache and flashed beta 6.3. Now wifi works and my previous issue with usb was due to a faulty cable. Only problem now is the phone freezes when I set max to 1.4. 1.3 works fine so am guessing that's my sweet spot.

Glade to here its fixed/figured out. sorry to hear 1.4 isnt working for you,I just ran a benchmark @1.4 and it ran fine, i believe this is where the every hardware is different.
Just re-read your previous post and saw you used smartass gov. Thats the same one i used. You may wana play with some other govs it may or may not effect the frequency you can use. It probably wont and smartass is a good gov.(imo) but just a thought.

As stated in the OP 6.3 Adds:
GPU frequency changing
Added V(r) and SIO schedulers
You can use whatever version you want. 5.1 fixes wifi for people who had problems with beta 5. So any of the 5.1 - 6.3 builds are ok to use its just what you want out of the kernel. Each build is a new kernel you can flash w.e. you want and doesnt have to go in any order. Builds older than 5.1 are not recommened to use but they are basicly unchanged from the Kernel you get in core2idiots latest cm9.

6.3 just fixes wifi and adds a couple I/O schedulers. You might as well just stay with it. Even if you don't use the schedulers, there's no harm in staying where you are.
Also, just wanted to say that SmartassV2 will save more battery when the screen is off, as compared to basic Smartass.
As far as your issue at 1.4, that bites! Mine tops out at 1.7 without any voltage adjustment. Most people should be able to get 1.6-1.7 as well. The best chips should get 1.8... That said, 1.3 seems pretty low for you to top out with. In any case, it's usually a good idea to go at least 1 step below where you don't freeze or reboot, just to be safe... In your case, that would be 1.2 - just putting it out there. In my case, even though 1.7 works, I have it set to 1.5 just to make sure I'm not running into problems.
