Just to keep the DEV thread clean, and act as a centralized medium for all things related to CM7
Hopefully this makes things easier for erikmm, and the rest of the Blaze community.

Nice! What exactly is broken with the camera on the first release?

well all this cm7.0.2 and they are all the same lol well the OS itself so you can see their features and it'll be the same the only thing that changes from phone to phone is the proprietary parts and the kernel

so update guys i fixed the call issue but that fix breaks wifi so i might release a wifi-less build and have named cm7 as alpha for now cus of wifi
Edit:
Fixed wifi fixed calling lol uploading new build

thanks so much gonna try it now.. You are a true developer. Thanks

Only thing I am waiting on is camera but I won't ask the dreaded question. then it will likely be my daily driver until an ics build.

Finally got all set up and ran this since the update, tried to look at everything performance wise. There is a short list of minor issues, most of them really don't effect my day to day usage.
Runs fantastic with zero force closes and great screen resolution
Battery holds up well....wi-fi doesn't sleep.....will eat up battery life if not monitored. I manually disable GPS as well out of habit.
No haptic feedback but hey....I don't use it. tried every control option and fixed permissions.
SD card issue is likely formatting. Doesn't like my 64gb card but my 32gb card is fine. Will attempt to reformat and advise
Native music players won't run FLAC files. Neither will google play. Been using Jet Audio FLAC works great so no major problem.
Installed Beats audio which works very well.
DSP....no issues no force closes...seems top improve call quality using the speaker setting to boost the high end...
Set up V6 super charger.....results unclear....may be effecting battery life. Will advise.
All programs seem to run normally, calendar, texting etc.
You have KANGED well!

Im looking for a new daily driver. This is looking great. But i need camera, so ill wait it out.

Eh! And *sigh*
Haptic feedback is a known issue that I mentioned before.
As for wifi have u checked settings to see if its set to sleep when screen is off?
Never played flac files.
As for supercharger script if its not included in the rom and you add on top I won't troubleshoot as idk what problems those scripts cause. So everything rom wise I will but if you add other things/mods I won't
And camera is a hard issue most cm7 first builds come with dozens of errors this one only has 2, vibration(which I fixed already) and camera

SIGH.....
I'm going to bust your chops a little.....all in fun you know.....but seriously can we usae this forum to share what we find and help each other as well? I'm easy I will type somewhere else.
Been crack flashing since day one. Probably never had a perfect ROM yet....isn't that why we're all here? Since there isn't many posts I thought I'd share a little. I think there is more than one developer hyping the V6 out there. I was interested in seeing if it would help...if not I'll reload.
You know what they say....those who can't develop ...DONATE (Everybody should)
Yes Wi -Fi ....will try something to see if I can get it working right.
Camera I didn't mention .....it's not working by the way........
FLAC....do you love music? There is a lot most people don't know about FLAC....I'll leave you with this since you're probably mad at me./
Typical AAC (Apple Audio file) 192kb maybe 256kb compressed and lossy
My FLACS....Uncompressed 1411kb
Which one would you listen too given the choice?

Jelly Bean Keyboard Android 4.2 apk

Hi all,
Check out the new JellyBean 4.2 keyboard, which is like Swype only better (IMHO). http://www.theandroidsoul.com/download-android-4-2-keyboard-apk/
It allows you to swype to type, but as you are moving your finger the words it guesses show up right next to your finger. When it gets to the right word, you lift your finger, and it types the word. Very cool!
Be aware that you might have to google around to get the apk, as Google is trying to take down the leak. But it works great, and installs on your rooted phone just like any regular app.
for those who have forgotten:
Install the apk
Go to languages and input in settings and select the Android keyboard.
Go to any text box, pull down your notification bar, and select input method that way.
Enjoy!

I got this yesterday from droid life. But it don't seem to have a personal library where you can save words. I've been using swype beta for a while now and that's the best part of it. I can type my emails and passwords in and it remembers it. Saves so much time. Its a deal breaker if this doesn't include a personal library. I do like the suggested word though.

This is already in the apps and themes section.

good,thank you for your information

it doesn't do the floating text on my GS3. Why is that?

I know I'm running beans custom and if you go to language and input in setting there is a personal dictionary you can select that I've been using. It stinks you can't add words straight from the keyboard but at least it's a temporary workaround.

Honestly I'd be shocked if the final version doesn't learn the words you use frequently automatically. I wouldn't be surprised if they don't let you add words manually though, Google seems to be going the apple route of less manual fiddling and more "sane defaults".
edit 1 :
Seems to be working fine on my S3 with CR3.1, hopefully we can get an update of the official release once it comes out.
edit: 2:
Scratch that "working fine" comment, I got a hot-reboot while typing which I am going to assume is because of the keyboard. Maybe you JB folks will have better luck.

Works great !!! Thank you

[APP][FIX][24/7/13]Smear Fix V1.4>>ALL SGS4 devices<<

What is the smearing issue?
Our lovely SGS4 Super AMOLED screens are the first kind to completely turn off pixels when true black is showing...
Previous generation AMOLED screens used on the SGS1,2 & 3 devices kept power to black pixels which could be seen in a very dark room as a faint glow on areas of screen showing black.
So we now have true black screens with switched off pixels which is a GOOD thing... Am I right?
Well in theory yes but you have probably noticed a fairly annoying flaw when this is put into practice. The pixels take time to turn back on so whenever a grey or dark object moves across the screen against a black background the image will "Smear" due to this pixel switch-on delay.
How does this app fix this?
It's very simple and not a true fix. The app creates a nearly transparent white overlay covering the screen. This will make blacks a very dark grey which you will find hard to notice but it is enough to prevent pixels from switching off since true black is eliminated.
Use the Smear Fix app to launch the overlay and the Kill Smear Fix app to remove it. Simple!
Quick Guide
#1 install the "Kill smear fix app first
#2 install the "Smear Fix V1.4 app
#3 When you launch the app there is NO ui interfaace. The app with create a nearly invisible overlay which will cover the entire screen.
#4 The app WILL auto start on boot UNLESS you have killed it previously using the Kill app.
#4 The Kill App will remove the overlay AND prevent the main app restating on reboot. The control file for this is "smearfix" stored at the root of your SD memory.
IMPORTANT: This app has just one known issue/bug/quirk which is the same you will find for ALL overlay/screen filter type apps so I can't fix it.
When the app is running you WILL NOT be able to install any apps manually. The install button just won't respond. You will have to use the kill app to undo the fix to remedy this.
ROOT NOT REQUIRED!!
Install the Kill App BEFORE you install the main overlay app
V1.2>>> Kill app now properly kills the main app and service.
V1.3>>> Fixed landscape overlay
V1.4>>> Made overlay 1080x1920 properly this time. USES LESS RESOURCES TO RUN!!

Nice work

Nice work.
The only 'small' disadvantage will be the battery life. I dont know to what extent it will reduce but it surely will since switching on of those black pixels will come into picture.
Anyway, great job, man

It's going to draw more not because of the screen but because you're adding an overlay layer on the whole screen which needs to get fully redrawn every single time anything happens on the screen.

The application works well. I only detect one problem, to rotate the screen coverage is maintaining the width of the screen in portrait and not suited to be in landscape.
I hope it will be useful to say.
Thank you very much.
Sorry for my bad English.

Would it be possible to modify the app so that it applies a slight greenish gradient to the bottom 25% of the screen to offset the pink tint issue that some of us are having?

Didn't the smearing get fixed in MF8? I am on MF8 and its gone for me.

Samsung cheated, they changed the UI so there will be know true black anywhere. This was the fix
In apps with true blacks (like STweaks) you can still see smearing.

Yea making a zip to use in recovery to remove fix would be better since overlay apps tend to break the manual install system.

nah it won't, but pure performance is garbage for speed tweaks, etc. I recommend crossbreader
