Keine Changlog Updates mehr?
Wir sind doch schon bei CM-7.0.1-0.08-11.04.24!
Link

 

Ja, hab ich ausversehen ausser Acht gelassen. Tschuldigung.

0.08-11.04.24 7.0.1

• fix: google maps freeze on launch after repeated gmaps launches (and system reboot after that in the end, sooner or later), lock happened at the time of reading of cached maps from sdcard, fixed by:

1. revert to not moving dalvik-cache to sd-ext (it causes also other performance issues, so I'd disable it anyway), only app and app-private are moved now
2. read_ahead_kb for sdcard set to 32 (yes, I don't care about sdcard speed benchmark results, I prefer stability)

• fix: webkit text wrapping (e.g. gmail text displayed too narrow)
• fix: displayed operator name (for some European networks), forced plmn display for spdi networks
• other fixes and features (status bar additions etc.)

Und wieder ein großes Update:

7.1.0-RC0-11.05.03 (2.3.4)

Android 2.3.4 - lots of fixes (e.g. the RTSP stream playback - Issue 13715 - android - RTSP playback does not work with 2.3 (Tried with Nexus S) - Android - An Open Handset Alliance Project - Google Project Hosting and many others)

• qwertz/qwerty/azerty keyboard can be selected in Settings>CyanogenMod settings>Input>Keyboard layout (no need to change the layout in OR after every update any more for those who don't have euro-qwerty phone)

• backlight animations enabled
• option to display AM/PM clock in status bar
• DSP Manager: equalizer presets
• fail safe: play the default ringtone if the customized one is not available
• ADW catalogs navigation via swipe added
• other fixes

notes:
1. the gtalk voice/video chat needs updated google apps package, which has not been released by CM team yet
2. subversion number (e.g. the last 0.08) is no longer used as no new official kernel updates from Motorola are expected

7.1.0-RC1-11.05.08 (2.3.4)

• ADW fling gesture direction detection fix
• euro-qwerty kb layout selection typo fix, swe-qwerty added
• keep sms/mms & home in memory defaults fix in activity manager
• continuous logging is enabled and redirected to /cache/logger to ease the debugging reports. I'll usually need AOL_main.ap.bin and AOL_kernel.ap.bin files. They can be retrieved by "adb pull /cache/logger".
• various surfaceflinger and other fixes (keyboard open detection on boot, backuptool.sh updated for new gapps etc.)
• note: this version wipes out media database because of the album artist support introduced - you will need need to reassign your custom ringer/notification/alarm sounds again

7.1.0-RC10-11.06.14 (2.3.4)

• DSI-fix kernel module - adds error recovery scheduling (in Droid kernel called from dsi_vc_flush_receive_data function, while this particular call was missing from Milestone kernel). Kernel function hooking in use made by Nothize, hooking source provided to me by Zewelor. Thanks!
  (hopefully, you can safely disable the DSI workaround in CM settings>display now)
  'Incoming call in background' option (Settings>Call settings) - option to inform about incoming call only via notification & ringtone while not leaving the currently active application in foreground, when screen is on
• ro.ringtone_query_wait_time property added, to allow override the max time allowed for getting the customized ringtone for the particular contact that is currently calling, before the fallback to default ringtone. Android default is 500ms. Set to 1500ms in this release.
• 'normal' flashlight brightness fixed
• 'high' brightness option when flashlight is invoked from notification power widget fixed
• selectable 0, 90, 180, 270 orientation options to be enabled or disabled
• Toggle2G included again
• DatePicker fix (FC e.g. in GTasks app)
• etc

Da ich nur noch GPRS habe, komm ich nicht mehr so oft online, daher hier mal eine zusammenfassung der letzten beiden Releases:

7.1.0-RC12-11.07.14 (2.3.4)

7.1.0-RC11-11.07.10 (2.3.4)

• video recording A/V sync fix when aac encoder is in use - high and wide camcorder profiles

Hat bisschen länger gedauert

Mit massiver Verspätung meinerseits, sorry:

7.1.0-RC14-11.08.31 (2.3.5)

• 
  (31)
• upstream sync (mainly translations but also other changes)
  (29)
• dex of google apps stored in /cache/dalvik-cache in addition to system apps and jars, to make better use of /cache and to free some more /data space
• DSI/MMC-fix v2.6 (kernel module):
• fix for sdcard read write/errors (thanks to HinotoriBR for excellent issue research and information provided)
• forced dsi hw reset when framedone timeout happens (introduced in DSI-fix v2.52)
• mot_boot_mode and charge_only_mode built from source, 1% battery steps enabled in charge_only_mode
• updated LED notification settings code
• option to disable Camera shutter sound
• option to disable screensaver in DeskClock/Dock
• Email.apk fix
  (24)
• disabled sw gl renderer, so that apps use the hw accelerated renderer only -> better 3D performance; also, it's required for some apps to run at all (e.g. the current Sygic)
• fix missing DOWNLOAD_CACHE export, redirect it to ext partition on sdcard if present
• as some say that SHLA 5.15 [claro] kernel build (1.3.2011) is better than SHOLS 5.27 used so far (5.3.2011), let's try it and see (though I don't expect any significant difference)
• rewrite of Usb apk in use
• Camera timer added
• etc.

PS: Erst Google Apps installieren, dann erst Google Talk aktualisieren.

 

7.1.0-RC15-11.09.10 (2.3.5)

• native USB Tethering (for both Windows and Linux): thanks to grandiose work by Skrilax on mot_usb kernel module (depends on updated Skrilax's symsearch module)
• (preliminary - work on usb stuff still continues)
• DSI/MMC/NAND fix v2.61: disabled duplicated nand suspend/resume calls to get rid of the
• 'nand_resume called for a chip which is not in suspend_state' messages (thanks to Elektroschmock for the link to patch that solves very similar mxc_nand issue)
• TI wlan kernel module compiled from source with backported wpa2 fixes from tiwlan .144 version (thanks to Tanguy Pruvot for the backport). It should fix some wpa2 issues, at least with OpenWRT routers. Feedback is welcome.
• added options to limit max CPU frequency when screen is off and when phone is in car dock
• (When the phone is in car dock it can easily overheat as there is usually: heavy navigation app running, gps in use, battery charging, 3g in use, sun shining directly at phone behind front car window. All this together can lead to battery temperature rising above 50C at which point the charging is automatically stopped to prevent battery damage and you can end up with phone battery empty after some time despite phone being connected to charger. So the CPU freq limit for car dock is there to help with this temperature issue.)
• option in Camera advanced setting to mute focus beep
• CMStats not removed anymore: I'm interested how many umts_sholes (i.e. Milestone) totals will be seen at CMStats
• added misc translations, Slovak keyboard etc.
