initial google account setup > menu > wireless setting redirects to mobile setting (see hbls00190's post)
camera : crashes on changing zoom/preference while recording (see similar issue on issue tracker 3222 and 3929)

edit: if something is not working (and you are not sure), i suggest backup, wipe dalvik-cache, reinstall the latest cm, and test it again before you restore anything else, to make sure it is cm issue. please use cm stock kernel and preferably RIL matching your BB. also check your custom_backup_list.txt and make sure it is a culprit-free

this is not an official feature list, but rather a personal gathering of scattered information. (or maybe a poll)
i start this thread to give you a summary of the up-to-date status of cyanogenmod-7.
basically, i will try to compose a list of working features and not, so you can check them in a single page, not search through 6000+ posts on cm nightly thread.
that way, it would be easier than ask "is it working ...?" there.
i will try to keep it up-to-date as much as possible.
if something is not on the list, let me know, and i will try to find it out as much as i can.
if something is wrong on this list, let me know here. (i am no expert. so, if i am wrong with something above, please bear with me)
i will try to keep up with posts here, and make changes...
edit: i will try to update the list for the latest nightly.
edit: i personally thank everyone who has helped me make the list as thorough as possible.

Thanks for your test, if you can, try with GPS active for all the day and without Maps or other apps that use the GPS open. I have a colleagues with same phone, same ROM and same problem.

i'm sorry i'm confused. what did you mean by GPS active ? you mean Settings > Location & security > Use GPS satellites = checked ? or running a background app that tracks GPS location ?

thanks for this thread I will watch to see if or when A2DP is fixed. As that is the ONLY reason stopping me from using CM7

I've read in the first post that USB OTG function is missing in CM7.
But is it avaiable in some other roms? (stock, Modaco, etc...)
Or Cyano had announced to implement this feature? (My ex device, desire Z, never had this feature with CM7).
Or is it only a your personal hope?

A last question:
I think that with CM7 a mouse and a keyboard bluetooth should work with this phone, am I right?

what is the consensus on if alarm is working or not on #79 ?
it is working for me. (will have to test it further tomorrow morning)

Call Recording - Total Recall

I installed Total Recall today to give it a try.
There was a guy on the Note forum that discovered that if you chose option B the phone would hang a bit then go back in and choose C that the Note would record perfectly. The same trick seems to work here.
I wonder if someone can inject some files to a rooted device that would make call recording work.
Has anyone tried any other call recording program with any success?

FYI, we're working on automating these settings (as well as doing some research as to exactly why this affects things as it does). Look for our next update (v1.9.4) to include this settings config automatically for Note users.
Stay Killer
Josh @ Killer Mobile

Wow. That will be great. So glad I've purchased this already.
Can't wait for the update.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium

I am interested in this too. Configure Option B then C works perfectly until the phone restarts.
Has the new version create a shortcut for this yet?

CallRecorder (Dsoft) works perfectly on 7.7

[FAQ][Buglist]P970 MIUI Port(by Frankenstain & Flatzki)

This is an auxiliary thread, created to help developers The Frankenstain and Flatzki with the porting of MIUI to Optimus Black.
Please check to see if your question has been answered here before pestering the thread in the development section. That thread is only to thank them, give support or any other specific request by the developers themselves.
This will be updated with each release of their beta.
FAQs start here:
___________________________________________
Q:Can I just ask all of these issues on their thread?
A:I, as well as everyone else, will bash you and call you names if you do.
Q:Is this ROM good for daily use? how is the stability?
A:This ROM is mostly ready for daily use, yes, some things remain to be fixed, but stability is really good, and so is overall smoothness.
Q: Does Hardware acceleration work?
A:Not fully, video can't be recorded at 720p as of version 2.0 and lower video resolutions are color shifted.
Q: Does Camera(for pictures) work?
A:Yes, fully and at all resolutions.
Q: Do Sensors(accelerometer, etc...) work?
A:Yes, fixed in 2.0.
Q: Does this MIUI build allows us to pull down the notification panel from a fullscreen app?
A:Yes, yes it does.
Q:I took a screenshot with the built in feature but I can't find it !
A:If you're using 1.0 it's in the /cache folder (use a root explorer). In 1.5 (credit to gsal for noticing this) there is an error saving to the SD card and images can only be captured when the sd card is not mounted. The location they're saved in is /data/sdcard/MIUI/
Q:My carrier is definitely not a huge string of numbers, what do I do?
A:Open up MIUI control panel app->statusbar->Carrier options and set the custom carrier to your liking(or just hide it).
Q:How do I change how the battery is displayed?
A:Settings->System->Battery->Battery indicator style.
Q:Is the MIUI Theme manager working
A:Yes, fully.
Q:Is GPS working?
A:Not for me, as well as some other users, but developers say it does, so it might be device or location specific.
Try this if it doesn't: GPS FIX
Q:Can I use Huexxx's kernel with this ROM?
A:Since v2.1 it's already included.
Q:Is this ROM in my language?
A:Yes, if it's one of these:
Deutsch
English
Español
Français
Hebrew
Italiano
Polski
Russian
Chinese
Q:What is the difference with that other MIUI rom from flatzki?
A:That was a patchrom, this is a port, which gives the devs more control over their rom. As well as this version having less of CM7 (ie: no CM7 settings)
Q: Does it use Aroma installer?
A:Yes, although no customisation is available as of v2. 1
Q:Can I switch music tracks with volume keys?
A:Yes, it is implemented since v1.5
Q:When will this rom... ?
A:Just wait patiently, the devs already know what is and what is not working and are troubleshooting those issues. Asking for ETA's is morally unacceptable (this applies to all of XDA too.)
Q:How is the battery life?
A:Using only 2g and some wifi, I got easily 20+ hours with medium use, considering drain overnight is very low.
Q: Does USB mass storage mode work?
A:Yes, It also remembers your choice for automatic mounting.
Q:Wifi is not reactivating after screen off
A:Set the sleep policy to never sleep.

About the call end bug.
Since the sensors are not working, removing the phone from ur face will not turn on the screen. So u are left to press the power button to "unlock" the screen so u can press the end button. Thats when it gets stuck.
The only bypass is to let the other person hang up first.

really thanks for this buglist i just wanna say another bug i have on my OB, when i take a video with the camera i can't read her so if you know what program can read the video please say me because with vplayer and QQplayer that's doesn't work.

First of all i envy you because i recently suffered torn cruciate ligaments and i need surgery but in greece it is impossible atm.regarding the gps it finds 5 satellites max.i think that it won't be able to maintain the signal for a long distance.i asked flatzki if it is possible to attach a setup like cm7 in zeus rom.i think that works great.overall the rom kicks @ss and the language pack works perfect except from the vibration.everything is in greek.

Sorry to hear that, I wish you the best of luck with your injury.

So, if I understand this right, audio always comes from the back speaker. Is your voice always transmitted?

[Q] Vivid with ICS and the Voice Dialer.

I am going to upgrade to Vivid from my Inspire 4G. But I just read that with ICS Voice Dialer no longer works and that is one thing on my Inspire 4g that I use the most. What I like to do is get the Vivid (only $49 from Att and it already comes with ICS) and root it to install the last version of GB that the Voice Dialer worked. I have been reading the crippled Voice Dialer thread and it seems that everybody is looking for a workaround to the problem but willing to live with the flaw just to have ICS. I don't really know the major difference between the GB and ICS but to me, it really isn't worth changing if I am going to lose the Voice Dialer. Has anyone else tried what I want to do? I have been reading the Vivid forum I can tell there is lot of difference how things are done to root this phone than my Inspire 4G. I would appreciate any input regarding this matter.

I happened to stumble upon a pretty good interim solution. It's called Voice Control. The free version is called Voice Control Test.
I have tried them all and this is the only one that comes close to working correctly without screwing up other Bluetooth devices.

I decided to go back to GB for this very same reason. ICS is nice and all, and, as a whole there are many changes and optimization's. But if you use sense, 3.5 is not that different from 3.6. Not only voice dialer does not work over bluetooth, there are also many apps that don't work or do not work correctly on 4.03.
After I went S-off on my phone I just decided to install an older version of android. I was afraid that the new Hboot would screw things up but I still tried it and everything seems to be working. I did have a little of an issue with the kernel so I flashed it twice, before and after installing the gingerbread rom.

Third Party Voice Dialer Apps
There is a extensive thread on this issue in the General section. This link takes you to page 4 where I discuss Cyberon Voice Commander. I had also tested Vlingo.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1562886&highlight=voice+dialer&page=4
At least one person tried to use a custom ROM with the voice dialer added back in. While there are differing opinions on what works best, I found Voice Commander with ICS to have the same functionality as the built-in voice dialer in Android 2.3.4. Look at the whole thread to see what others have to say.
See also this thread for another recommended app.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1580128

Cyberon Voice Commander made my BT functionality flakey.
However, I found Voice Control which works must better. I think the free version is called Voice Control Test.
Set the accuracy low and fast which is the 2 setting. Even at this low accuracy, it is really good.

One point we should make is that Bluetooth sets in vehicles and BT headsets can vary in their capabilities and ability to work with the Vivid (and other phones). While CVC works well for me, WillGill had more success with another product.
It may take some experimenting as WillGill and I did (and Vivid 2X also), but I believe you can find a product that will restore voice dialer capabilities without having to root your phone and install a custom ROM. Of course, Google should never have removed it, but that's another issue.

Just wanted to share my solution:

[Q] Working Screen Recorder

Hey guys Dave Here,
I'm trying to find a Screen Recorder that works for the Sprint HTC One. All of the apps I've tried that are free on the play store are not working for my phone. I can give more details about my run and so forth but I've done it on a different roms and versions of android to still have the same issues. If you know of a fix or an app that you use please let me know. Thanks for your help.

SCR Screen Recorder Free - gives me an error 139 (I think) each time I ran it. I've changed every setting I could and if it didn't give me that error it gave me another.
Screen Recorder Trial - It would save it in a format that was unable to view on the device or my windows 8 laptop (says its mp4)
Z screen recorder - Does record but the video is very very blurry with multiple colors and no options to adjust it.

So is it just me or are others having the same issue with their HTC one?

Screen cast worked on my HTC One..Never tried it since the 4.3 update because i moved on to a different device.
i believe i had to Make sure HW Overlay is disabled and "Force GPU Rendering" is enabled from the device's developer options menu
