Hi, i just upgraded fom cm7. Cm7 is very good and yes you CAN change launchers. I was on the stock kernel and everything was smooth, so i recomend the kernel that comes with it

I can recommend glitch as kernel. Works great for me.

lib*.so files from Cyanogen7 to Nova v8 - How???

hi,
i would like to ask if is possible to use lib*.so files from CM7 Rom in Nova v8 Rom? I tried to unzip CM7 Rom Lib* files using them in Nova Rom, but the new zipped Nova Rom with CM7 files is un-bootable.
I'm asking because my Monsoon Vulkano player is working only with CM7 rom...but this Rom has too many bugs and i want better use Nova v8...
Can someone help me please?
Many thanks.
it's possible,but you can't use it directly,you need source to build it to suitable nova
thanks for advice, but its not clear for me. Can you please better tell me how can i make it? There is some manual for it?
Thanks you very much.
AFAIK, it's depend with the kernel (compiled kernel), so it won't compatible...
CMIIW.

You can try darky 10.2.2. It is stable and you will get more battery life.
Fore flashing 10.2.2 better flash your phone with Darky 10.2 RE http://www.hdtechvideo.com/?p=5
After flashing 10.2RE you can install 10.2.2

[Q] am having CM7 (nightly20) &Novav11 kernel. CAN I OVERCLOCK???...if so, how??

am running the latest CM7 release for the black and also the latest NOVA kernel. my question is
"CAN I OVERCLOCK???...IF SO, HOW EXACTY???"....can any of you great guys give me some detailed information on how to overclock the black EXACTLY????..awaiting your response eagerly.
P.S.-> i used the search tool but i didn't find the step by step guide for overclocking CM7 Op. Black. so, please don't flame if i reposted
You can't find it, because it doesn't exist yet. If you had read the nova kernel thread past few pages, aprold already mentioned that he is working over it but hasn't succeeded yet.
So, the only way till now is NOVA ROM (froyo), which supports the overclocking.

I'm about to upgrade my old-stock rom to NOVA. But a little confusing about it. Maybe anyone can help me
when I want to upgrade rom to Nova V11, what firmware do should I use?
I read from posts that nova based on stock rom but in this thread says that nova can use CM#20 nightly firmware..

You are confused with NovaROM and NovaKERNEL. The latter is a kernel for CM7. Please always read the thread tittle and OP. It will indicate what it is, what they are, and what they are for.

ooh, I seems about to get it.
so if I want to use NOVA ROM, what I need is just kernel for NOVA V11?
I mean, in recovery mod, I just choose the NOVA zip after factory reset and wipe cache?
if so CM#20 is kernel for CM7 do i still need to put that CM#20 in my sdcard and choose it on recovery?
IMO, when I wipe all data and partition cache, then Nova Kernel will have no firmware, 'cause when I download nova kernel, it's just 5MB but the CM#20 is 100MB. and when i see inside the zip, CM#20 contain app,bin,etc,framework,font,lib,media,tts,usr,vendor,xbin. but in Nova just contain app,bin,etc,lib,xbin.

u r all messed up!!!!....in a summary:
1. NOVA V8 is a ROM.
2. NOVA KERNEL (latest V11) is NOT for the NOVA OR STOCK ROM...it is for CM#20 nightly build.
3. In Stock ROM, u can flash another kernel called "QUASAR" kernel.
now, for applying a kernel, u need to flash the ROM FIRST and then FLASH THE KERNEL. u don't need to do a factory reset if u flash a kernel but u should do a factory reset if u flash a ROM....
hope this helps

Ah my friend, you still don't get it. Let me put it this way
(NovaROM (NovaV8) / CM7 nightly#20 / LG Stock 2.2 Froyo) = are ROMs
(Quasar (NovaROMv8) / NovaKERNEL v11) = are KERNELS
Nova v8 (ROM) contains a custom KERNEL called Quasar, and it is based on stock 2.2 Froyo. All-in-One.
CyanogenMod 7 (CM7) is Gingerbread AOSP based. It has Nightly#0-#20 and few RC0 compiled by members. We have custom KERNELS for it, NovaKERNEL v1-v11, HuexxxKERNEL v1-v4.
In short, NOVAKERNELS SHOULD ONLY BE USED with CM7 and in some instances with stock Gingerbread (Tested with V20a, V20l, Marquee). You cannot combine NOVAKERNEL with NOVA8 (ROM). Please read more what's the difference of ROM and KERNEL.

Looks like with NOVA KERNEL V12 you'll can Overclock
yes...let's hope so :\
Yes you can expect the feature on v12 but be patient

If you have the knowledge you could always compile something yourself, but I guess very few of us do so I recommend waiting for the upcoming V12 version of the kernel wich is said to have the overclock feature.

[Q] Recommended Gingerbread Custom ROM? [This is my 1st time to flash custom ROM]

Hi to all,
I want to try a custom gingerbread ROM on my new OB. My current stock ROM is Froyo v10d.
Any recommendations?
Zeus v1 by Huexxx or Redy2006 or Novav11 or other mods?
Thanks.
U can try Zeus or redy's rom. These are more stable than cm as of now. Nova 11 is a kernal for cm7 not mod.

I'm proud of you, you don't come here and ask for a time...
Yess there are different custom ROMs like Zeus ROM by huexxx, which mainly is a rooted stock rom, with some tweaks applied. Then there is Redy's repack of rooted stock v20n and some deodexed (google it, but not important for a beginner) versions of rooted, stock GingerBreak (GB), then there is CM7 in different versions (some cherry picks and customizations), then we got Nova ROM, which is a HIGHLY tweaked and optimized Froyo based OS, and stock GB and Froyo ROMs.
You can find em all by using the search (upper corner on the right side), or by going here and scroll down (use mouse) sarcasm btw

Choose WHATEVER U like best! Everyone will suggest something else, since he/she prefers something else (speed, stability, battery performance, ...) Just flash em, try em and if you dont like it, try another one, noone can tell ya, what YOU like best...
Hope I could help you, if so there is a thnx button down there
Thanks for your reply.
I prefer battery on a ROM. I will give GB ROMs a try because GB they say has battery enhancement features the froyo.

Update: I updated my OB to Zeus v1 and this rocks. Very good battery compared to froyo.
Thanks guys.
i'm using xanadu rom based on redy's rom and i'm very happy. No bugs, no FC, good battery usage. I'm using it because I was searching for an original not touched LG rom, with root, but without LG stuff. Is refined lite version from 2º post.

I use Zeus V1 and its faster and clean (little lite) i recommend this one!!

You may try this kernel "semaphore 2.0.6s" this kernel allow you to overclocking to 1.2
my current ROM also using MIUI JB (2.9.4) with this kernel is it really as smooth as butter. :good:
Only problem i have for this ROM is --> data missing (Apps Additional data need to re-download again after i falsh/update this rom to another version)
