Work on the ROM is now progressing here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1428046

This is a list of known bugs of the various development ROMs. Features that are missing, such as an FM radio or Preferences in the Launcher, but are not part of the base AOSP, are not considered to be bugs.
Note: I started from b6r1, which was the first version closest to a workable, stable version. Let me know of any corrections or additions.
Apologies (5-Jan-12): I've not been able to keep up with the rate of ROMs produced, so I'm not updating this report until I either have a bit more time (I'm back at work) or the pace slows down a bit. :-(
b8r3.109
- Camera: does not work. Needs driver to be built.
- Display:
o Lockscreen/CRT animation missing.
- Keyboard: Long press on Menu doesn't dismiss keyboard. Partial Fix: Back key dismisses keyboard. Works in other ROMs also.
- Softkeys
o Brightness gets turned off even in low light. Partial Fix: turn off auto brightness. Sleeping will turn off SK brightness and must change brightness to turn them back on.
- Sound: Changing headphone volume changes the system volume.
- Video: effectively unusable. Static images at 240p; will not play above 240p. Workaround:

One info regarding the b7r1 : i have titanium bkp pro apk on my sd and after installing wasn't able to restore aps (it runned all the procedures, mentioned that all apps restored...but nothing).
The other issue : the gradient colours are lost,the background colour is not "fluent" overall.
Great ideea with the dedicated bug report thread, the dev thread was filled with all kind of garbage

Just to add to the gradient comment, deva know of the issue and are working on the bug, but there's no hot fix, so we just gotta wait it out.
To add my own little bug too, I'm finding that now hw accel is in, after a while my phones display gets garbled, particularly the fonts. It was mentioned with a screen shot in the dev thread, but i don't think there'll be a fix until hw accel is better supported.

I also use TB Pro to restore my apps. It all worked fine.
Can someone else confirm this problem?
Swyped from my HTC Desire S on ICS b7r1 using Tapatalk
update TB to latest version. ICS Support was added in version 4.6.3, so you need a version above that for it to work.
Nice thread!
May i just add that after I've used the phone for a while it almost locks up, pulling down the notification menu takes about 1 minute, and after that if I'm opening the app drawer it takes another minute. Sometimes a reboot solves it, but not always, anyone else experienced this or could it be some application that's not ICS compatible?
Version: b7r1
Radio: 20.48.30.0822U_3822.09.08.20
Installation: Clean install (wipe everything) although i restored a lot of apps (no system apps) with titanium.
Edit: Another bug I found was that i couldn't seem to lower the volume during a call, nothing happened, can anyone confirm?

None of the issues you've described are present on my phone.
NOTE: When reporting bugs here, it may be useful to specify which beta are you using or on what beta the bug is present. Since we're discussing about both beta 6 and 7, if you just report the bug, can be confusing.
Also due to various configurations, the best way to help and give feedback is to try to reproduce the bug on a clean install (wipe everything then flash the beta). This way the devs might know if the bug is caused by the ROM itself or a specific configuration (that's why some of the bugs are present to all and some just to few of us)
beta7：
1.lock screen rotates even the rotation is disabled (both in preference and display ).
2.sometimes the fonts become garbled , but it could be fixed by a restart .
3.some apps, such as maps, fc randomly, but never occurred with beta 6
4.cant play videos ,and moboplayer doesnt work

I totally agree, I'll do that with the next beta!

Don't know if it's only me but in beta 7 it seems that the H indicator is broke again. I got only 3G indicator even if with beta 6 I get the H in the same places
I can confirm that the same behavior happens for me.

Launcher is not missing anything like preference as you said on b8r1 ...m-deejay built it from pure aosp code so the launcher is the factory android not one that was included in b7 ...
This can be a workaround for that launcher problem .. go to this trebuchet launcher forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1410674 download and push it to /system/app then restart select default launcher trebuchet and delete launcher2.apk or whatever from system/app
Thanks for clarifying this. I'll update the OP.

Is the missing FM radio a bug or is that also something that's not in the base AOSP?

Just noticed this:
update-cm-7.2.0-RC2-smb_a1002-signed.zip
http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=smb_a1002&type=RC
Anybody try it yet?
I'm still on a 1.1 Recovery, but that should not be a problem for this ROM right?
Post if you install and the success you have please. Thanks - Dan
CM7
I am running CM7.1.0.1 i am afraid to change roms due to lack of success with past flashes. I am pretty much outdated on my rom but it doesn't seem like developers are producing a lot of this particular tablet....or maybe its just me. Are any of you guys rocking a must have ROM for the tablet. I am also running into issues where i'll have to reset my tablet to access wifi. It'll freeze between screens when I enter my wireless settings. If you want me to i'll back everthing up using TB and Nandroid and try this new one if no one wants to take the plunge!
OK, I've installed it. Here's my review:
Upgrade Details:
Viewsonic G-Tablet - 1.1 Bootloader
Clockwork Recovery newly from latest ROM Manager (5.0.0.6)
Previous ROM - Official CyanogenMod 7.1.0.1
Method:
Reboot into Recovery - Wiped/Deleted/Formatted/Erased/Reset to Factory Defaults - Everything I could.
Re-partitioned 2048/0, even though I think it was that way already.
Wiped/Deleted/Formatted/Erased/Reset to Factory Defaults - Everything I could - again - and then again - a few more times, and then once again.
In case you are not comprehending the subtly of the above, let me clarify: I was trying to do a clean install.
Installed 7.2.0 RC2 from link in first post of thread.
Did NOT install Gapps, Sound Fix, Camera Fix or do any Market fix.
Observations:
- The 7.1.0.1 Bug of not having WiFi turned on upon reboot is fixed.
- WiFi Seems to connect more quickly/reliably than 7.1.0.1 - Probably (should) has DHCP bug fixed.
- Seems to have it's own audio fix. Multimedia Volume appears momentarily after boot, and sound seems to work (mostly) fine.
- DPI is set low for me -- I'll have to mess with build.prop
- Camera Works - Orientation seems correct, Snapped picture was clear, and there are more camera settings.
- There is no DSP Manager.
- In CyangenMod settings -- if you enable Screen-off Animation (Twilight Zone effect), it won't wake from a manual sleep.
- Still has problem of dockbar (not notification bar) disappearing, and I do not know how to get it back. Have to place an open/close app draw Icon on the home screens.
- Web Browser stability/speed seems better than 7.1.0.1 - This may be as much because of the wipe as anything else.
- I installed the Google Apps via the run-once market fetcher. This worked well with the exception of Google Maps:
- Current Google Maps causes almost immediate *bad* crash back to the Cyanogen Spinning arrow, and it stays there. I have to force a full reboot by power cycling. Will need to downgrade to a Maps 5.x.x I have on an SD Card someplace.
- Not sure whats up with Google Talk - Camera works for an instant, but seems to freeze, no audio. Google Talk does not seem to be in the Market, This Google Talk was in the ROM.
- Market Updated to Play automatically. Works fine. Most apps seem to be there.
- Some YouTube HQ videos still only play with HQ off. While messing with this, at some point I lost audio, and had to do the headphones in-out to get speaker audio back.
- 3D Tegra optimized game worked well with good frame rates. (Ground Effect XHD)
Look:
Definitely good ole' Gingerbread - Very few cosmetic changes from 7.1.0.1 - No CM9/Honeycomb look/icons or wallpapers. A few new Cyanogen wall papers that were not in 7.1.0.1
Skype
Just curious if you have tried Skype and the results.

Sorry, but I do not use Skype.
I'll try a standard SIP client, and report back.
Now, with a Little more time on it, I can report that it is a perfectly useable ROM. I have not seen anything that would be a show stopper, or prevent this from being a release.
WiFi is definitely improved, and I would recommend it as an upgrade from 7.1.0.1.
Now an official CM9 would be better, but until then, 7.2 will keep me from feeling like I need to buy a new tablet for a while.
RC 3 out
I came over from Flashlight. CM7.2 rc3 works very well. Only issue I have is some video resolutions act like there is no sync, just get wavy lines.
Looking at the changes, which can be found here:
https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_malata_smb_a1002
It does not look like much has changed from RC2 to RC3. (Which is a good thing, since by RC3, we should be getting pretty close to a release). Just some build stuff which probably does not effect the packaged ROM at all.
So I have not upgraded from RC2 to RC3.
I also get the diagonal lines in Youtube videos for some settings.
Only the fairly low resolutions seem to work at all.
Hi, I've just updated my P3110 to Android 4.0.4 via KIES. The new keyboard is great but there is no sound on touch even though I enabled this option in settings. System sounds are also set to max and of course silent mode is switched off And general sound on touch works flawlessly (the new one, like in Galaxy S3) only keyboard is silent. Can anyone confirm this issue? Cheers.
Try setting/keyboard or language and setting and try to find samsung keyboard and see its setting (of keyboard) and try to tick and apply sound on press or so
I do not have stock rom i have cm so can not see options exactly sorry
Or Try 3rd party keyboard as go keyboard (beautiful themes)
Sent from Galaxy S2 or Galaxy Tab2
As I said, the keyboard sound option is enabled but still there's no effect at all. I just find it strange and wonder whether it's a bug or something got messed up with my update.
There are a bunch of AOSP rom's for our phone, most of them share the same issues since it's the same code, with slight differences based on which commits they've added. I'm hoping we can list the common issues in one thread as a reference.
1. Data handoffs between 3g/4g - I believe this is now fixed in most of them after the RIL patches, right?
2. Call volume - This CM10 commit (http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#/c/24564/) should fix this. Not in most rom's yet
3. Bluetooth pairing, call connect, streaming - does this work fully in any AOSP rom?
4. Sleep of death
5. Wakelock caused after playing media (DirectTrack)
6. Camera issues, like save to sd. The JB mod camera hasn't been updated yet.
7. Misc battery life issues - are most of these due to #5?
8. Activation issues after a flash
9. Low video recording volume
10. Notification light problems
11. 160 char sms limit, MMS doesn't work
12. Problems waking up with home button
13. Screen redraw issues (these can be fixed by turning off hardware overlays, but that increases cpu consumption)
I think it would be very helpful if we could track which rom's had which fixes merged, since otherwise it's hard to tell without asking in each thread, doing a lot of searches, and trying out.
Slimbean:
-Wake lock issue still seams to be an issue, battery life is bad
-notification light not working when call/text/email etc come in. Will be patched on next release
-data seams stable enough (ril patch is active on most recent build)
-horrible battery life
-call volume will be patched on next release
-home button to wake up phone is hit or miss
-odd screen glitches every now and then (fully live withable)
-mms sending takes forever, needed several reboots to even get it to work
-if usb fast charge is available in your kernel, it has a toggle for it in the notification tray (awesome)
-did I mention the battery life is bad?
-soft key light options do not work
I'll report more as I find them. I like these threads, good call.

I am using slimbean 2.5 and I am getting anywhere from 16 to 24 hours of battery life on a single charge (3-4 hours of screen) which is about normal for any AOSP/AOKP based rom.
I actually made a similar list, but deals with comparing TW quirks to AOSP quirks:
Touchwiz VS. AOSP
Touchwiz:
- No Bluetooth and Aux input simultaneously
- Wallpaper Cropping forced to non-scrolling
- No way to disable auto volume reduction upon headset plug-in
- God awful front end interface design (this is more of an opinion)
- Google Music will randomly stop working, requires screen to be turned on for it to start playing the next track
AOSP:
- Volume Quirks (upon reboot, media volume will play quiet regardless of where the slider is, if maxxed you must turn it down and then up again similar to the call volume issue)
- Call Volume at Max every call (wasn't this fixed recently?)
- Wrongly uses noise reduction mic for recording (thus quieter)
- Inferior Camera (features mainly)
- Worse battery life
- Sometimes drops data
- Not as buttery as ICS for some reason (recents excluded)
- Will frequently kill background apps, making 2GB of ram somewhat pointless
- Bluetooth streaming issues (This doesn't personally affect me but I thought I'd throw it in anyway)
Basically, the one with the shorter list wins. So, I'm on TW for now but I yearn for the AOSP list of quirks to shrink.

I've been told this has been fixed, but I still experience it. Is there a workaround for this currently?
I believe that there is a big tracker which is linked to on the irc chat. I would link to it but I'm not at my pc.perhaps someone could do so?

This 1? http://tinyw.in/25QW
Number 6 is not really a problem. It's all based on personal preference.
Number 1 was fixed. Sleep of death could be kernel and/or clock speed settings. Mms works fine. There is a fix somewhere for direct track. Battery issues? Umm mines been perfect. That could be contributed to people not knowing what's causing wake locks and not fixing it. Not sure how anybody is getting screen redraws I haven't disabled hardware overlay and mine is fine, using apex if that makes a difference.
Most if not all of those issues are non existent in liquid smooth.
Hope this is the right spot to post this question. I tried flashing 2 separate roms today (Slim Rom and Liquid Smooth) which I believe are both AOSP, but I could be wrong. On both occasions, it starts to boot and gets to the google account login screen and the screen on the phone just keeps flickering and goes black.
I am unlocked, obviously rooted, with CWM 6.0.1.1 and have flashed JB TW rom in the past with no problems but went back to TW ICS, which I am currently running now.
Anyone know or direct me to the right thread as to why the screen flickering happens after flashing these AOSP roms? I haven't tried CM10 yet because these other roms actually sound more stable than CM10 right now.
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

That might work, but I cannot even get into the OS to disable anything. It is completely unusable when I flash any of these roms.
Would there be something out there that I could flash in CWM to disable this in the rom pre-boot?

Nothing that I know of sorry.
One of the main reasons I don't use any AOSP roms is because of the bluetooth sync issue. In two of my cars, it will sync for the first time, but any other time I get in the car it won't pair up. I have to manually connect it every single time.
wifi errors, i get out of range and or wps failed on any aosp rom.
I find that signal is just not as strong as compared to Touchwiz roms.

Hey all,
I have a Nexus 7 and an Asus Transformer Infinity (it's my wife's). We bought the VoicePro application from the Play market for recording and mixing audio. Unfortunately, we are finding that my Nexus 7 running 4.2.1 records reliably and quickly. The Infnity on the other hand, is a mess. Pressing the record button gets us a second or two of lag in the activation of recording mode, and we get interrupts and stutters in the recording. We can actually see the lag hitting as the 'waveform' being recorded is going across the screen, and during playback, sure enough, it's chopped up.
We almost got her an iPad instead of an Android tablet because of audio lag concerns. However, before we give up and go that route (especially being an Android-owning family), I want to see what my options are.
Option 1 - Unlock + Root, and set up the Seeder app that everyone is talking about (yes, I know critics say it's placebo, but what little lag I saw doing recordings on my Nexus 7 has now GONE since I installed it and updated read_wakeup_threshold. Whatever magic it is, I can tell you it does prevent kernel-based blocks that lag the device, and I believe might improve the recording).
Option 2 - New Kernel and/or new ROM. Obviously I'm not afraid to do this as I'm an experienced person in this regard, but I need to make sure we don't lose stability or functionality with the ASUS dock. Although my wife likes some of the ASUS add-ons/apps, she's not married to them, and would be fine with letting them go in exchange for a smoother experience.
For Option 1 - has anyone tried out the seeder/entropy fix on the TF700 and can you report that it exhibits the same performance increases (in terms of less lagginess) as other people are reporting?
For Option 2 - recommendation for a 4.1 (or better yet, a 4.2.1) ROM and/or that will work with a docked Transformer Infinity pad, and provide enhanced performance and less stuttering/lagging?
Thanks in advance,
Randy
