The Complete Review Of CyanogenMod 7 [Walkthrough & Guide] CyanogenMod is to Android, what Shelby is to Ford. CyanogenMod is easily the most popular AOSP (Android Open Source Project) ROM out there today, with MIUI catching up quite fast. While both ROMs are appealing in their own manner, MIUI ROM is based on CyanogenMod, and that alone is a testament to its awesomeness. For a list of devices officially supported by CyanogenMod, check out the official CyanogenMod page. CyanogenMod right now, is based on Android 2.3 Gingerbread and referred to as CyanogenMod 7. Enough said, while CM7.03 is the latest Stable ROM out there, we decided to pair our trusted HTC Desire HD with the latest CM7 Nightly based on Android 2.3.5 Gingerbread to explore it to the last detail, and walk you through the entire ROM. User Interface CM7 sports the most Vanilla look you can find on a Gingerbread ROM. We will not be going into the details of the Launcher because you may end up using some other Launcher like Launcher Pro or Go Launcher on top of CM7 here. Music Player

This will not be updated nor will I be answering questions about it. Its pretty much outdated as well. Here is some information regarding kernels that I've collected from people off of this forum and the internet. Now updated with some of the more popular kernels at the bottom. Miscellaneous Tid-Bits: ** If you take any part of this please give me respects and XDA respects ** ** Once again! Kernel Information CFS = Completely Fair Scheduler CFS kernels tend to focus on the system as a whole, and CFS is the default in the mainline Linux kernel. Here is more information on CFS: Brain **** Scheduler BFS kernels tend to focus on whatever app is running in the foreground, think of a graphic intense game here.

How to Break Down the Barrier Between Your Android and Computer @Ph0Xy: FTP Server, its in the market and free @Ph0Xy: Personally, I have used FTPServer with my phone connected to my Wifi network alongside FileZilla on my PC. It works flawlessly. @Ph0Xy: I use DavDrive on the phone (Moto Droid), which sets up a WebDAV share on port 8888 of your phone. On the computer (Win7), I use BitKinex, since it's the first of the few WebDAV clients I'd found that works. The one downside is that it's not always-on (I'm not sure what of the above are).

Supercharge Your Smartphone This Weekend Nobody should be using or recommending (I'm looking at you, Adam Dachis) "SMS Backup" Use "SMS Backup +" instead: [github.com] This is a fork of the Android backup tool SMS Backup, where development has stopped a while ago [December 2009]. It uses Gmail to perform SMS, MMS and call log backups over the network. Main differences / improvements [over the original SMS Backup]: * New restore feature. * XOAuth: SMS Backup+ will never ask you for your Gmail password. * MMS backup support (since 1.1), only available on Android 2.x * Call log backup (since 1.2), with Google Calendar integration (since 1.3.) and restore (since 1.4). * Batch size limits removed. * Works with any IMAP server (but defaults to Gmail). Tested with Android 1.5 - 2.3. SMS Backup+ is available for free in the market, there will never be a pro / paid version.

How to Replace Your Wallet with Your Phone Good article, but I think we're still a couple of years away from this being feasible en masse. Even when the NFC technology is built into phones, retailers will be much slower in updating their POS systems to support it. Plus, if your phone battery dies, you're kinda screwed. I know that's the reason for carrying the one credit card, but that's only partially helpful. Until the iPhone can hold a charge for at least 12 hours WITH frequent usage, this will continue to be an issue. I do like how insurance companies like State Farm and Humana allow you to pull up your insurance card on your phone, but they do say that's not a legal replacement (particularly for auto). Key Ring is a decent app, but I prefer CardStar. And IMO, QuickPic is unnecessary. Also, business cards can be handled much the same way as receipts — by taking a pic of the business card itself.
