sorry if i made any mistakes in posting i am a noob at this forum

Latest morfic will not work with cm7 stable you need older kernel.
May i suggest flashing latest cm7 kang, its very stable and newest additions, and you can flash latest morfic kernel.
Go to development section look for baldwinguy77 thread and get latest cm7 nightly kang, wipe, flash then wipe cache/dalvik and flash morfic latest.

That's what they are, the bot to upload the nightlies to CMs site has been down since mid november, probably because he is working on CM9. But the kang just adds the latest nightly features, was just updated a few days ago too.

[Q] noobish question regarding CM7

Having trouble finding a straight answer via Search.
I'm running stable CM7 (2.3.3), but I want to start using the CM7 nightlies (2.3.4) in order to use google talk video.
Can I just flash the latest nightly and gapps on top of CM7 stable?
Or do I need to wipe anything (and if so what do I need to wipe) ?
I have everything set up perfectly, so I'm not looking forward to having to wipe anything if I don't have to.
How about going from nightly to nightly?
I just did this on my fiancées EVO. I just wiped cache and dalvik and flashed the latest nightly (not even gapps) and it runs like a dream.
Thanks, I guess I give it a go.
The other issue I'm having is finding which gapps package to flash that will have working Gtalk video. I think this is it (link below), but if someone could confirm, that would be much appreciated.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13953719&postcount=5405
EDIT: Looks like the answer is yes from another thread.
Also I wiped cache and dalvik, flashed the nightly and the gapps, and all is working swell.

[Q] CM7

Howdy. I am about to install CM7. I looked in the downloads and am wondering which nightly I should download? Is the newest one stable or is there another that is stable. The file sizes are all around 92.7mb. Is this the entire MOD or is there a base that I need to install? I know these are noob questions....but I'm a noob to the droid scene. Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Install latest nightly using CWM. Make sure you flashed CWM using NVflash.
That nightly is the actual ROM and only thing you need to flash separately is the goggle apps, which are called gapps

Thank you. I already rooted and flashed CWM on my phone itself. How would I go about the google apps. In other words, where do I download them and do I install them in the same way from my SD card? Tanks again and sorry for all of the questions.
Google Apps aka GAPPS is also found in the same post as the CM7 nightly.
Factory Reset>Flash CM7>Flash GAPPS>Reboot>Enjoy
Google asked Cyanogen not to include the Google Apps in this roms, so you have to manually install them after you flash his roms.
Once you get up in a good working CM7 rom, download Rom Manager and use it to download roms/Gapps in the future.
Reboot into recovery
Wipe Data/Factory Reset
Format /system (found in mounts and storage)*
Wipe Dalvik Cache (found in Advanced)
Wipe Battery Stats*
Install latest nightly
Install Google Apps
Install whatever kernel you want, or just skip to use stock
Reboot
Entries marked with a * are not necessary but reduce the chance of something going wrong.
I'm on the latest nightly (78) and it's awesome.
Only jumped to CM a few days ago (from EB FR 1.05) and it's waaaaay better.

[Q] Xoom 4G EOS ICS 4.0.3 Nightly #25 Questions

Hi All... Familiar with the basics of rooting/ROMs... I've upgraded my GB 3.2.4 Xoom 4G to the EOS ICS 4.0.3 Nightly #25 a couple of nights ago, and DANG.... impressive stuff! I'm absolutely loving it!
I had a quick question on what the preferred way is of keeping up-to-date with these nightlies? Is it acceptable to just apply a new nightly upgrade from CWM directly ontop of the ROM itself? Do I have to do any wiping of cache beforehand? Also, I was reading you have to reapply the GApps 10.3 afterwards? Can that be done at the same time (one after the other) in CWM?
Does this have any effect on apps that are installed, or email accounts that are already configured?
Thanks much in advance!

You normally wouldn't need to wipe, unless they have a new version of gapps which you would have to flash.

Thank you... just to followup... so if a new nightly comes out, I can just apply it through recovery without doing anything else... but if a new version of gapps comes out, then I have to go through the process of backing up my stuff with titanium backup, go into recovery, wipe data/cache/factory reset, install the nightly and the new gapps, then restore my apps? Sounds painful just for gapps... why doesn't it play nice by just overinstalling it ontop of an older version?

CM10 Alpha 3 Problem?

Hello,
I was running the CM10 Alpha 2 for my GSII. Alpha 3 came out so I decided to update. I installed the newest CWM and the alpha 3 package, gapps and darkside wipe.
When installing I had no problems that I noticed. Everything said it worked fine. However, once rebooting the phone after darkside wipe finished, I couldn't boot up my phone. I can get past the Samsung screen, but I don't even make it to the CM animation boot screen.
I decided to pull the battery after waiting a while and go back into recovery. I did this and decided to restore my backup. My phone is stuck on "Restoring .android_secure" right now and will not work.
I can use Odin to flash back to ICS and how to came but I'm wondering why it didn't work? I know I did the procedure right, as I did it when flashing CM10 alpha 1, 1a and 2. I read about needing the latest CWM for it so I got that, too. A bit of a weird issue that I'd post in the CM10 thread if I had over ten posts.
Thanks in advance to those who can help!

I followed basically the same pattern and didn't have an issue, aside from the fact that I didn't Darkside wipe (if you are using the latest clockwork touch I don't think it's necessary anymore). I also flashed the instigator kernel (6.2.1) but that was after I rebooted without issue.
Sidenote, the instigator 6.2.1 seems to possibly have some overheating trouble, so I am running the Darkside Hercules kernel for the moment, and it seems to be working well.

Yeah, reading the thread it seems like a pretty rare problem. Somebody actually posted something similar yesterday that I missed and nobody really knew. I wasn't sure if I should Darkside wipe or not so I chose to anyways. I haven't tried flashing a new kernal but as I said I can't even get to the boot animation.

I would stay away from the darkside wipe, it has been reported through many threads that it can sometimes lead to problems when installing a rom. Your best bet is to just wipe data, format system, wipe dalvik cache, either format /cache or use Darksidewipe.cache not the darkside wipe that's wipes everything. Then install rom and gapps. Reboot phone and let it sit for 5 to 10 minutes, (i usually let it sit 10). From there you can decide if you want to flash one of the two available kernels, results may very with the two.

Thanks for the help. I'm going to try it within the next few days. Right now I have SKY-ICS going fine but I'll definitely try that.
What do the different kernels do?

I used TWRP and flashed over CM9 with no problems. Did it as an upgrade. Wipe system> install CM10> install gapps> Wipe cache
Several people have reported that TWRP worked for them.

[Q] Having slight problems with CROMI 3.0.4

First of all, this is an awesome rom and I'm very thankful to the developer.
My problem is that there is still some lag here and there and I've had a couple of random reboots. I'm wondering if I made a mistake flashing the rom.
I was on the .23 firmware. I flashed TWRP 2.2.2.3 because that's what it says in the how-to-root-JB guide and I was too impulsive to notice that in the cleanrom thread it says to flash latest TWRP. D: Does it matter?
After booting to recovery I flashed 3.0.3, wiped cache and dalvik, then booted to the rom to see it working fine. Went back to recovery, flashed 3.0.4, wiped cache and dalvik again. Everything looked fine except for the occasional slight lag and the random reboots.
If this is caused by using a wrong version of TWRP, how should I proceed?
I made a backup of stock rom before flashing; Do I restore stock, then flash the newest version of TWRP and then cleanrom? Would that be the safe way to fix the leftover lag and reboot?

It probably doesn't make any difference but I would use the latest twrp as that guide is out of date.
You should not get any reboots at all. Most people are rock solid stable and so should you be.
Maybe your infinity can't cope with the overclocked kernel. Please reflash with the stock kernel for testing.
I think I read somewhere about a CROMI forum? If there is one, can someone point me to it?

The correct way to do this would be to use the kernel switcher? Or reflash 3.0.3 + the patch?

Either is ok but kernel Installer is faster to do
