Cm7 with faux 0.4.3 kernel. Everything works. Bluetooth and apns are fixed. And its 2.3.7 gingerbread

You can download an app called getril from the market it will check
you're ril(radio interface layer) to see if it matches you're baseband and if not will also allow you to change it, its not custom ril's but will insure you have the right one.

CM7 stable with the morfic kernel is awesome! Ver. 2.3.7 and all components work fine except for small apn fallout but a hard reboot fixes that issue.

I have tried CM7 and Weapon. With CM7 I encountered problems with WiFi calling not working reliably (a hard reboot would fix this but I found myself having to do this often) and losing apns (I hear that this may be fixed now), so I finally gave up and tried Weapon G2x.
For me Weapon G2x has been rock solid and everything I need works. I have heard that some people have trouble with HDMI out at 1080p, but I have not used the HDMI port on the phone yet so cannot comment.
I have not tried EB.
I like Euroskanks CM7 kanged cherry pickings. Good stuff.
Anyone able to play "Draw Something" on any CM7 based roms without it freezing? The game would start up but then after like 20 seconds it would freeze. I've tried on a few CM7 based roms and even MIUI but it only seems to be fully functional with no issues on stock roms.
Iam having problems to with it also on my cm7 T-Mobile g2x it would freeze and can't touch anything. Can't even play it.
Same here its not working ...idk how we could get around this....

I works "OK" on cm9. still very usable becasue i have been playing it for the last week, but it does freeze up every once in a while, and FC, and one thime form me it froze completely and i had to do a battery pull. So it works, but not really super well.
I'm having the same issue on the latest nightly for my G2x. I thought it might have been AdFree or another conflicting app but I haven't had any luck narrowing it down. Anyone find a way around this?
Add me to the can't play list also.

Yeah this poses a problem for me as well. Girlfriend just found out about this game and she was in love with it. Then found out it doesn't work on CM7 ROM's... F'in bummer.
Had to wipe and flash a stock based 2.3.3 ROM in the middle of the night just because she wanted to play the game with me.
Lol needless to say, I hope this problem is fixed somehow because stock based G2x ROM's are so bad compared to CM7.

Lol I am in the same boat bro, my girl is begging me to play every day and Im on CM7. Sucks. Was thinking about wiping and flashing a stock ROM myself but just not worth the hassle. Hoping someone finds a fix soon, I tried everything.
Also thought it was an adblock problem, till I stumbled accross this topic.
What? Are you guys running straight CM7 or CM7 based ROMS? I am running EaglesBlood v2.8, which is based off of CM7, and Draw Something works perfectly. Even faster than it was running on Bionic Reloaded v1.2 which is based off of stock.
The only "lag" I noticed was when I first started up the app, it took around 10 seconds to show me the login screen.

I'm running that too, and it crashes non-stop for me.
What kernel are the people that are affected running?
Personally, I'm running Faux's UV one, without DS.
I'm running straight CM7, the latest nightly to be exact. With the latest update of the game I can launch the app almost every time but it freezes when I try to enter actual gameplay. Ridiculous.
Try using Faux's kernel.

This is the fix. I installed Faux kernel with CM stock voltage. No freezes and ****. You can try other kernels too I guess. The only other kernel I tried was trinity and stock and they were both freezing.

wanted to see which one's are people running the most :]
i myself is running HELLFIRES ICS :]
Hellfire Phoenix. Everything just works, plus plenty of customization and great performance. Probably the longest I've stuck with one ROM out of any phone I've ever owned.

Not sure what you're talking about. Hellfire Phoenix is based off of GB. You must be thinking of hellfire SANDWICH which is based off of ICS and isn't as stable at HFP.

You haven't tried HFS 1.4 then....
I keep trying EB's ICS builds, but I use WiFi calling pretty extensively so until that gets fixed it's mandating a switch back to 2.3.7 for reliability and functionality sake.
Wouldn't mind giving Hellfire Sandwich a try if it didn't also have the same WiFi calling issue though
I feel like I should be getting more out of the light sensor for the automatic settings though this may be due to my ignorance of the proper settings that I am looking for so maybe someone can help.
I am trying to get my screen to be dimmer naturally on the lowest automatic setting... If i have it set to automatic brightness and then cover up the light sensor it gets to say a brightness of 3 out of 10... if i turn off automatic brightness and just turn the brightness down all the way it gets down to about a 1 or where i want it to be. How do i get the automatic brightness levels to make the screen dimmer?
Use a CM7 based rom, and then tweak from there.

I have the opposite problem. On full auto I would like it to adjust brighter when I am in bright sunlight. Are there any options besides changing roms? I like the rom I am using. Are there any apps that help or is there something I could hack?

AOKP and CM9 are both ICS based, but they're different. AOKP offers far more customization.

I was using CM7 for a while enjoying the luxury of having my quick buttons for wifi, gps, bluetooth and sound but now that im back on 2.3.4 stock rom because of stability reasons, I dont have these buttons anymore, was wondering if there was a mod i could use out there to bring these back. Im currently running ADW launcher EX as well.
I do not know of any mod for quick buttons on stock 2.3.4
However, have you tried running plain vanilla cm7 instead of one of the many tweaked/modded versions of it like Hellfire? You can get it from get.cm, the latest nighlty build. I've been running it with mazouts latest kernel 0302 i believe. I strognly recommend it. If not, hope someone here can get you the mod you're looking for

CM7 is definitely leaps and bounds better in terms of battery usage, but if the ROM itself is giving me stability issues with network connectivity, messaging, etc, what options do i have? Aside from not having the status bar buttons, customizability isnt really a huge deal to me, more a less battery use is the biggest one. I was going 1 day 6 hours almost on CM7 and im down to about 12-16 now with the stock rom, all with light usage.

It should, it's basically the same as stock plus ics theme and status bar toggles.

amen to this lol looks like im gonna be stuck running widgets, hopefully this burrom and faux123 nets some better performance/battery life in combination with setcpu profiles.
christ almighty, i went through all that reprogramming and i got a phone call and the phone would not stop vibrating through the whole call -_-
cm7 man
Just use Notification Toggle from Play Store. Worked for me when I was using stock ROM. I still prefer CM7 though, I don't really notice any decrease in battery life, or at least anything significant.
