CM7 to CM6 to correct "the wonk"?

Hello,
I have only had my N1 a few days and I am experiencing what I believe people refer to as "the wonk". What I am looking for is the most stable, rooted rom out there that has no such issues. I just want everything to work.
Should I downgrade back to CM6?
If I downgrade, do I have to change radios and/or HBOOT? I have upgraded these to the latest available.
Thanks for the info.
-D

Stable rom is cm6.1.1. I'm using that while cm7 tries to get stable and free of wonks.
Wonks only affect cm7.

Also note that the mic delays on incoming calls are a known gb issue and are not specific to cm as it is inherent in the stock Ota rom as well.

Thanks guys. I just noticed that this is in the incorrect forum. My apologies.

Why not just use DeWonkifier?

In my opinion, the "dewonkifier" is a band-aide and not a fix. I would prefer the phone have as clean and bug free code as possible.
I'll install CM7 when the wonk issues are corrected.
The gingerbread base doesnt offer enough for me to sacrifice usability of my phone.
I am disappointed that I upgraded from an Aria to an N1 and have to downgrade the software. I expected the N1 to have everything work perfectly since its the original flagship phone for Google.

I am not knocking cyanogenmod by the way. I have donated to him multiple times and used his firmware since using a mytouch 3g back in the day.

Well the only thing holding back your nexus is you!. For my nexus the only bug is the 2 second delay and I can live with that. Dewonkificator ftw
Btw, CM7 is available for your aria too.

Cyan 6.1 is super stable and smooth, and fast. Its also much more feature complete right now over cyan 7. They are still bringing all the features over to 2.3. So its a very good experience using cyan 6 right now.

I will stick to cm 6. 1. 1 if your looking for stable. I gone back to it. I wait for stable release of cm7. Cm6 is much smoother and no wonkiness.

[email protected]'s SuperAosp is awesome. It's lightning fast gingerbread without the wonk. Everything seems stable enough to me- I've never had any issues at all with it.

I actually found CM7 with Launcher PRO to be buttery smooth, more so than CM6. My quadrant score dropped a little, but who cares. No wonk for me though.

i find cyan 6 smoother though. my quadrant scores dropped a good bit on cyan 7, but also things scroll laggy like tapatalk threads, certain long lists, handcent threads, etc. these were smooth in froyo. though i agree launcher pro homescreens are buttery smooth on cyan 7. its just other things arent for me.

[Q] Random shut downs

I know random shutdowns is an issue with Captivate. For the first year was maybe only 2 or 3 times total, but now, as it's past the warranty (naturally), becoming more frequent, which we know is always disconcerting to pick up the phone to find it's powered off
For those who are familiar with it, is it more likely hardware, a rogue app or the rom? I've been running a Froyo rom (Continuum 4.0) for a very long time, was thinking maybe if I flash a new rom (have been considering a GB rom for i897 like Illuminance) if it might solve it?
Any ideas would be appreciated

Froyo does have issues I would fnd a stable 2.3 gingerbread rom I have one on my old captivate and its amazing

I have seen some (only a couple) people post they're disappointed with the stability of GB roms, and prefer 2.2 roms. I did change the launcher a couple of months ago from LP to Go launcher (as to whether that could be a culprit) -but have been thinking of going to a GB rom anyway.

Try one...or a few, hell all of them.
It's Not like you can't go back to froyo if you don't like any...

True. Thanks, I think I'll make the jump to Illuminance very soon.

I'm in a very similar position and have several other issues, so I am also hoping that GB will be my salvation. Can I ask what factors made you decide on Illuminance? Thanks.

Haven't installed it yet, but leaning toward that rom as comments by users posting in the thread for it seem to feel it's stable, smooth, good battery, quick, using leaks specifically for Captivate, and I like that it's not heavily themed, close to stock, though there is now an ICS theme that looks nice, and the dev team seems to be diligent and responsive

I bet ICS would be good I never have seen any of its features but from what I've heard its awesome

ikr?! the ports cant come fast enough!!!

Which ICS rom will give the best experience?

I just got my broken charger replaced so I haven't really been following development. Which ICS rom is best developed and gives the best performance and experience?

As far as I understand it, there is just one at the moment. This one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1370873
What can be confusing is that as it's still alpha, you don't see official Cyanogen nightlies for this development effort yet. However several wonderful individuals have stepped forward to fill this need for the interim.
The other choice is if you wish to have opengl rendering turned on or not.
Soon, I'm sure you'll have four choices as 3.x kernel development is going on as well, so you'll eventually need to choose between the 2.x kernel with or without opengl and 3.x kernel with or without opengl.
What fun! But all of them are excellent.

I've used the builds from here (both opengl and not) and have been quite happy.

Krylon360, with open communication from the Nook Devs, has released AOKP for the Nook Color.

It's nice to have some more options, and that's what AOKP is all about.

thanks for posting that link 12paq, I have been waiting for AOKP for the nook. I've been running it for the last few hours and its running pretty nice. a few glitches here and there but nothing major, and I haven't noticed any major difference performance wise compared to cm9. big thanks to Krylon360.

It's a bit buggy, but so is CM9, but maybe just a bit less. I did get Hulu to play a "House" episode, Netflix is a no go. When and if the new kernel comes out then we will likely see some performance increases to CM9 based builds.
To be on topic, I'd reluctantly recommend CM7 for the best overall Nook build, even though CM9 is very functional and fun. The Nook is not my only tablet and I use it for light reading and hardcore experimenting (I am head test monkey for my dev friends of higher aptitude, lol) I always want to be on the cutting edge, however performance and options can suffer. This tablet has been a blast as well as a fantastic learning tool for me, but as a daily runner, not so much anymore.

I second that! Cm7 is by far the most stable ROM on the nook color. Also, I have gotten used to having my "back" button on the bottom right corner that I'm not running CM9 until they can change that.

Do you use the same cm9 rom for bootable sd card as you would to flash?
Sent from my NookColor using xda premium

As a general rule yes... the "recovery mode" script on Verygreen's sd install will modify the way the installer script works to install correctly...
there is an exception:
Racks' tripple boot sd has to have the files modified prior to placing on SD... so it knows which to install as primary and alternate.

For me, since I dont spend so much time on games anymore, I made CM9 as my daily system. For sure it lags a bit at speed, in comparison to CM7, but other than that is perfectly fine.

i tried the AOKP version listed earlier and i agree its nicer and smoother than the CM9 thats going right now but i have noticed with both its less responsive than my CM7..
anyone else having this issue or is it just because its a working progress?

snag build 40 from goo app off the store flash that...
krylon360 did some amazing work on it its fast ...

I have tried all the CM7 from the SD Card and now from the eMMC and although I love how they run, I'm very please and happy how my Nook is running with Samiam CM9 build from eMMC. I have tried eyeballer and krylon360 builds yet for some reason they both make my Nook freeze at times while with the Samiam build I don't have that problem. I have change the launcher to ADW Ex since the Trebuchet launcher do uses more RAM than ADW. I play many games, browse the internet and just about everything. I know that there's some features that are still not working but they are not so essentials for me anyway. I don't use Netflix, the Youtube HD work sometimes and sometimes it doesn't (can't explain how or why since there are reports that HD doesn't work on CM9 yet) but I can deal with that. Again, overall I'm sticking with CM9, hoping that sooner or later the will come with an official build. Thanks for all the hard work that everyone here does.

I have found krylon360's AOKP port for the Nook Color to be more responsive and smoother than the CM9 nightly builds. Being used to using AOKP on the Galaxy Nexus, it's nice to see those power features available on the Nook as well.
Definitely looking forward to krylon360's next AOKP release! :good:

I'll give this a try tonight.
I've been happily running CM 7.1 for a long time, waiting for the ICS release. Got tired of waiting and installed a CM9 nightly a couple days ago. It was sluggish and many freezes resulted; not ready for prime time yet.

[Q] Which custom rom?

I'm a noob when it comes to Android roms and such.
I have a rooted samsung galaxy s infront of me now but I have a question.
I have read that a lot of roms disable a couple of original features, like the google play store, video camera etc.
Now my question; Is there a custom rom that gives you anything like android 4.0+ for example with no features being lost?
Yes I have heard about CM but I read that it does remove a couple of features which I need..

What features will you miss? Play store and video work perfectly on cm10 and 10.1 based ROMs plus they trend to have lots of extra features compared to stock. I'm running Mackay ROM based on jelly bean 4.2 (cm 10.1) with semaphore kernel. Stable and really fast.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk 2

I'm using RemICS-JB_4.2 , and for me it is very stable and fast, UI is from SGS3, worth to try...

The mackay rom is very good

So it's just a myth that you will lose some stock functions? Don't trust me on my word but I think I've read that it removes HD filming or something.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium

You can enable xl ram (around 400 mb) in some kernels such as semaphore and devil which can mean you loose hd video, but by default it is disabled in almost all ROMs. So if you leave ram alone it's not a problem and I still have 720p video. Tbh there is a patch now that makes 720 work with big ram anyhow, but I manage just fine with the 389mb standard with semaphore so I haven't tested this.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium

So Semaphore kernel and CM as ROM leaves all normal features intact? Perfect. Just one last question; a lot of people prefer CM9 over CM10. Any specific reason for this?

Because CM9 is more stable. CM10 requires more resources to run on our old phones.You might not get enough RAM.I also noticed some games force closed on CM10.But they all work nicely in CM9.

Thanks for the answers.
Something popped in my head so that leaves me with 1 more question; I currently have hardcore speedmod kernel and I did the lagfix (transfer to EXT4) and it took some SD space of course. Now before I go to Semaphore kernel should I first somehow uninstall the lagfix? And how?
Thanks!

This is becoming less of an issue as development goes on but it is a factor to consider. I have to overclock cpu to get high end games to work. But you can't even install most of them on stock 2.3 so depends what you're after. I prefer the extra features that cm 10.1 gives. Can always flash to cm9 stable and give it a go and then upgrade from there, sensible to go to cm9 then 10 anyhow. You will have to full wipe between 9 and 10 though. So titanium backup is the best app you will ever install.

I'll just loan this thread a bit because I have a similar situation. I've only changed ROMs few times and I'm kinda noob myself too. I'm looking for a fast and stable ROM. Few days ago I installed ELITEMOVILS:s 4.2.1 galaxy nexus stock rom. It's good but cant get the wifi working properly so I thought I'd try another one. Should I go for JB 4.1.2 or for 4.2.1? Are the 4.1.2 releases more stable and is there a big difference in features and speed? Also battery life is quite important factor for me when choosing ROM (BTW has anyone found a good replacement battery with longer battery life than the stock one?). I dont update ROMs that frequent so it would be important that the release would be stable and functioning.

Slim Roms are pretty lightweight 4.2.1 beta 1 for me has been pretty stable and responsive. I also downloaded and flashed Semaphore 2.9.0s afterwards.

4.1.2 should be more stable than 4.2.1 as its been developed longer and even has gotten the official stable version released.
4.2 does bring some new features like all new releases but not as major as for example 4.1 brought, for this reason Google decided to keep the Jellybean name for the newer version.
Regarding battery life your best bet is a Gingerbread ROM, but frankly I'm satisfied with my CM10 in that regard.
I'm using a Pisen 1700mAh battery, and its very good for its price,I bought it from Deal Extreme, but be careful to research a battery before buying any, most of them are horrible and can even break your phone in some cases.
It's been said an official 1800mAh battery meant for the Epic 4g (Carrier-locked Samsung Galaxy S2) fits our phone even though it's thicker; I just bought one myself, but it's being shipped from the US and I'm in Norway so it'll be a week before I could confirm that myself...
The Wi-Fi issue with 4.2 is known and pawitp had released a fix for it, I don't know if the current nightlies from the CM team have incorporated it

Pretty much what I was going to say right to the last word (except I haven't owned an S3).

I should also throw in the fact that we have very little RAM, and it makes multitasking a pain in the ass at times, especially on ICS and JB. Or impossible at times, rather... A few small apps are usually fine, but that's about the limit. I've played with the minfree's to no end, adjusted the low-memory killer over and over to find a sweet spot, but I don't think one even exists here.
Basically what it comes down to is: If you want multitasking, expect lag/freezes. If you want performance, expect your apps to start over every time you switch back. Also expect to keep a task killer on deck at all times.
I'm currently running SmoothieJB with Tim1928's kernel and it's been a fantastic combo. Fast, stable, (relatively) decent multitasking and great battery life. It's one of the best experiences I've had on this phone, so much that I almost don't want to touch anything else in fear of losing what I've got... But deep inside, I'm a flashaholic. I will succumb to my temptations sooner or later. :laugh:

I've heard that CM10 can have trouble with 3rd party camera aps, such as bank check deposit etc. Anyone found that? If so what is the best option for that? I haven't flashed to JB yet mainly because I don't want to lose that checking account option.

That has been brought up many times in past. My beat suggestion for a work around though may seem excessive would be to make a nandroid of a full functioning cm9 and use it for checking and use the cm10 or 10.1 as your daily. I know it isn't the answer liked but it will suffice.

Ok, so I have a dumb question. How easy is it to switch back and forth between CM10 and CM9? Would this mean flashing the ROM all the time? Since I've never done any ROM flash, being a total noob, I haven't experienced one flash much less trying to switch back and forth all the time.

Well if you had a nandroid of both, you could just restore either whenever you wanted to, provided that you make a nandroid every time you change something.

Hmmmm. Cumbersome just to have check deposit. I'll have to think on this for a while. I suppose it takes a few minutes each time: make nandroid in CM 10, flash CM 9, deposit check, flash CM 10 and do this for each check. I don't do checks very often so it may still be worthwhile.
Do you happen to know if this is an issue being addressed and just might be fixed for, say, a CM11 release?
