Cyanogenmod 7 is CM7, just the full title. Also the nightlies are daily/weekly builds with updates in them to improve the rom functionality. Every so often a break can happen, which is promptly fixed.

Man my rom is st ill synergy with no kernels or nothing, time to update

I would think it comes with the cm kernel I always flash one when I flash the ROM for sbc.
And wifi is working for me I'm on 180 and I was on 200 earlier today and it worked but 180 is working perfect for me I was getting reviews on 200 and didn't have time to set up 201.

Another noob question

Does it make a difference what kernel I flash w which rom?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Yes. Sense kernels only work with Sense ROMs and AOSP kernels only work with AOSP ROMs.

MIUI is awesome but I just replaced with sense because I had horrible battery life on MIUI (along with some other issues). How's your battery life ?

I'm actually still on 1.1.28. I was planning on updating today but I was too busy playing Uncharted 2. You do not need to flash an AOSP kernel first because one comes packaged with the ROM. All ROMs come packaged with kernels. If you don't like the one it comes with, you can flash a different one after flashing the ROM.

Where are you finding an .exe? The "download here" link takes you to the official MIUI release thread on miui-dev where you can download it. It is definitely a zip file. http://forums.miui-dev.com/showthread.php?2053

So confused

Hey idk what's happening to my Evo but since I rooted I been having issues with the camera isn't working , I tried like 8 Roms already including cyagonem, mikfroyo... now I'm running Vaelpak 3.2 remastered and I love it but camera still doesn't work, just once and after that blank again,pleasea any suggestions?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
What hardware version are you? Try looking in settings under hardware information (ex 0004). Are you flashing kernels with theses roms?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
Is you camera not working? Or getting the messed up colors? if you've got the purpley/green look, your camera is broken.
It's 0003 and no man I just flash the Roms, but in this one I flashed like 3 kernels, Netarchy 4.3.1,4.3.2 and still nothing wat do u suggest?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Well netarchys kernels are only for sense. If you're running a sense rom right now try this stock kernel. Your camera is guaranteed to work if it doesn't then you have some problems. This is the stock #15 HTC kernel.

Have you tried flashing the stock sprint rooted rom and clearing/wiping EVERYTHING in recovery(before you flash). I would suggest you start completely from scratch man. Did you update anything while on sense roms(firmware, htc updates etc)?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
Double post. Oops
No man I didn't update anything,just flashed Roms and that's it, and I think I need to go back to stock to see if it work, where can I download that Rom?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I had a 0003 and had the same problem. Never did find a fix. Had to do an insurance claim. Now I have a 0004 with cm7 stable. I have flashed all the nightlies pretty much from 1 with no problem. Have not flashed a custom kernal to this phone though cause it scares me to have the same thing happen. If you find a fix please post so I can fix my 0003 and maybe sell it.

Here's the stock rooted rom.

You can grab the "deodexed" or "odexed" version to test it. If this doesn't work I have one more thing we can do report back and let me know the outcome. The first mediafire link will work just fine. Make sure you wipe first before the flash.

Lol ill be here dude. The only difference between "deodexed" and "odexed" is deodexed is for theming. They're both pretty much the same so if one doesn't work then other will have same results. If that rom doesn't work then we move to the last procedure. "Operation this is bullsh*t"

have you tried restoring your oldest nandroid, in case you did one right after root, also have you tried downloading any free camera app from the market,and see if that makes your camera work

Best/thin Roms

Hey guys, I just picked up an evo yesterday, and am trying to figure out what are some good roms out there that have 4G working? Any good rom/kernel combos?
Also what are some roms that are small. I've noticed that some of them are pushing 200mb, and when I've got 300mb or so free, size is a factor, I don't care what she says!
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
if you want to use sense, try MikG or tommytomato classic rom. Aosp roms decks is the best.

Size really isn't a factor for many roms since most of them support dta2sd.

His phone will keep telling him to update until he actually runs the update, or at least tries to (it obviously wont work if you are running a custom ROM). Just because his phone is telling him to update, doesn't necessarily mean it's better. I'm going to go ahead and agree with everyone else on here and say CM9 is amazing. The only reason I haven't gotten the EL30 modem and flashed CM9 (I have tried it and its awesome) is because i use the hotspot hack on my other ROM and 4g wifi tethering doesn't work on CM9 yet. Most people don't care about that issue so I'd definitely say forget looking for a EL30 ROM and go straight for CM9.
There are not many roms based on el30 yet, and to be honest, its not that great of an update. Cm9 is now available, but still had some bugs to get worked out. For now I would strongly advise starskyrom mtd v2.0, or marcusant v3. Its all about personal taste, and roms perform differently for every device.
