Is DPS manager remove in this rc ?
ReplyDeleteDPS Manager is still on RC 5.4 you just cant see it on the apps anymore cause it has been placed to CYANOGEN MOD SETTINGS.
ReplyDelete@b356c6bf7bc6a554b5b6912c24234e95 YAGYA - Sir have you tried to install the BLOOD N' GLORY and TAP TAP REVENGE 4 on CM7 ? mine always FC, but on my friends phone he said it was working, same unit MINI and same rom CM7. u think it is the stock FIRMWARE used before flashing? what's yours btw?
please help ..
ReplyDeletemy galmin 2.3.4, XXKPK stuck at boot animation.
Yagya can this mod overclock the mini ??? And can i flash it even if i have chocobread ???
ReplyDeleteNo, it's in Sound Settings in Cyanogen Mod Settings. See the video I posted carefully and you will find it.
ReplyDeleteMine stock firmware is S5570DDKQ7 (I am using official one for my country). Also, I haven't tried those games on my device. I lack the time as well as have poor connection to try all those huge games and all.
ReplyDeleteIf it is stuck at boot animation means, flash the rom again and then wipe data, cache and dalvik cache and reboot your device.
ReplyDeleteI can't calling with headset on cm7 rc5.4 :(
ReplyDeleteI can't hear voice on my headset..
what there is a problem same with me?
help me.. :(
sorry.. my english bad.. :(
I don't have any clue whether these games work on cyanogenmod 7.2rc5.4.But i do know that tap tap revenge 4 doesn't work on my cyanogenmod 7.2 rc5.3 operated sgm.Even worse i'm having such problem with some other games like Air penguin.
ReplyDeleteCan i flash even if i have chocobread and what are the optimized games are they hd games from gameloft and others ?? Plz replyy
ReplyDeletesorry but why we cant setup catalog?,like go launcher its very good but i think its some time not good working with cm7.any other adw launcher which work as like go launcher?
ReplyDeletespeaker problem is araisisng with this
ReplyDeleteI suggest you to go for ADW Launcher Ex.It's because it has got a app drawer scrolling option called "vertical 4D" plus you can also use 'icon packs' if you're not satisfied with your default boring icons.
ReplyDeletewhy cant we do in the normal way
ReplyDeletewhy to do it in the flashing way
the size of the file is same for both
very good looking and fast but few bugs are there
ReplyDeleteswitch on and off it gives bugs and in few places also dude
How to move status bar on to top. And give me ockernel links for 7.2 rc 4..
ReplyDeleteHello guys.. I flash my MINI from CM to CHOCOBREAD - TAP TAP REV 4 and Blood N Glory works on CHOCO. Hope CM could FIX this.
ReplyDelete@ASH - I can play Air Penguin on CM 7.2 RC 5.3 with no problem at all.
yagya i have 2.3.6 ddkq7 can i flash this??? because the post at xda says oly supported for S5570XXKPI OR XXKPL OR XXKPK and even you have said the same for flashing gb in step 1.....
ReplyDeleteThanks Yagya. Good but FM Radio is not clear. There is a noise.
ReplyDeletei cant understand about battery life.after 100% charged i ll take out and using phone about 15 min and my battery telling 80% just in 15 min.and after i m most concentrat on battery i m using phone untill 8 to 9 hours my battery still 30% left .....i cant understand this battery life ......can anybody?
ReplyDeleteI think Go Launcher is the leader if you ask me in terms of features but, the problem with this launcher is it doesn't have a good lock and UI. Launcher Pro and Zeam Launcher are also nice; try them and see if you like.
ReplyDeleteWhat sort of speaker problem? I have been listening to music all long and I didn't noticed any.
ReplyDeleteWhat are you talking about? If you are comparing the size with previous version then don't do so. There is some changes in this version and it is nice and stable.
ReplyDeleteWhat do you mean by switch on and switch off bugs? I can't find any bugs (not till now). try flashing the rom again and make sure you do a data wipe in CWM recovery.
ReplyDeleteYou can flash this regularly over your DDKQ7 rom. As you might see in the screenshots of this rom that it is working fine on my DDKQ7. No problem at all. And, in step 1 I meant any Gingerbread version of firmware.
ReplyDeleteFlash the update for FM radio fix and try again.
ReplyDeleteYes... the charge percentage shown in CM lockscreen is not 100% correct. It says charged before it is actually charged. Check using Spare parts app for real data. It is ok to disconnect if it says changed in Spare Parts.
ReplyDeleteI have learned from an annonymous blog that our handset can handle battery of 1500mAh.Is this a fact or myth?Even it's true,can using such powerful battery damage or brick my mobile?
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tutorial. I did all the process, until the reboot. But while starting, the phone stops in a black screen, with just the word ''android'' written on it. Can anyone help me ? Best Regards

DO I NEED CLOCKWORKMOD EVEN IF I DONT HAVE ANY FILES TO BACKUP?
ReplyDeleteBro, dont forget to WIPE DATA and WIPE CACHE also on the CMW > ADVANCE > wipe DALVIK CACHE too. What version of CWM are you using? also on XDA thread were the original post was it is recommended to use 2.3.4 with baseband XKKPI, XKKPJ, XKKPK, although some use the 2.3.6 DKKQ6 (like me), it is still recommended to use it..
ReplyDelete- Yagya pls correct me if im wrong, thx :)
Hello Yagia,
ReplyDeleteOne more perfect update. No major bugs found so far. Sorry to see that so many people are stuck in the 'Android' word. Never had this problem.Only problem i have every now and then is (probably) not rom-related: sometimes my phone gets 'stuck'. Pushing a button the regular way doesn't do anything. I can only revive the phone by long-pressing the power-button or removing and replacing the battery. I tried several things: not overclocking, wipe data, cache, battery stats and dalvik, but it keeps coming back. I already had this when i just bought my phone with stock froyo. Apparently its a hardware problem...
the other line cant here my voice if using headphone/headset
ReplyDeleteYes. I updated now. Thanks Yagya
ReplyDeleteYou are getting mad for no reason. The reported bugs are on the way to be fixed by developers. Also, about replying the comments, don't except me to help you right when you need help. since, I'm the only one working at this site and also I have other tasks to do along with my personal jobs so it takes some time. Also, if you look around the web then you will notice that this is the only site that listens to users or the visitors. If you post a, comment come back after few hours and you might find them replied. But, you might also need to wait for a day or so sometimes since I might be away at some time.
ReplyDeleteYes, to solve the problem go to recovery and wipe data, cache and dalvik cache and reboot your device. After few minutes it will boot normally.
ReplyDeleteYou need any custom recovery either clock work mood or RZ recovery to flash any custom ROM. So get one indicated first and try again.
ReplyDeleteYes, you need to flash a custom recovery. Don't skip any steps above except the one thatare written as optional . Also, don't spam with comments. Since I am quite busy and have some other problems I can't reply as soon as you want. You will need to wait. Also for fast updates find me at Facebook.com/yagyagaire
ReplyDeleteYes, it's a pity that they are stuck. It's because they don't follow the steps properly. As for your problem, if it was there when you bought it then you should have asked then to exchange it. But, anyway if it is not that great issue then you can bear with it.
ReplyDeleteFlash the audio fix update mentioned on the text above. If your problem is still not solved then find a way to overcome it until next update from developer.
ReplyDeleteI am not sure about it. But, I recommend using only the official 1250mAh. (I think this is the battery for mini) battery on our device. If you are looking for a phone with better battery and other features try latest android smartphones.
ReplyDeleteYes,i agree with you.So far i have flashed emanon v3,emanon v4,cyanogenmod 9 ics beta 2,cyanogenmod 7.2 music edition and cyaogenmod 7.2 rc5.3 and rc 5.4 in my cell.But i haven't confronted any kind of error.Also,i flash those roms every now and then and yet i haven't bricked my cell.
ReplyDeleteHello Yagya,
ReplyDeleteAfter flashing update_system_and_kernel_for_cm7.2_rc5.4.zip the "About this Phone" is telling me i am running CM 7.2 rc5.5. Ok to me, but i thought this was just an update for version rc5.4?
Greetings, Harro
Yes, don't you get it. Every later version you get is also an update to previous version. But, I was also unknown about it until now. Looka like the developer changed the version since he updated the kernel and system as well.
ReplyDeleteplease ......provide a .cyanogenmod rom for samsung galaxy 551 also.......please...........
ReplyDeleteplease ......provide a .cyanogenmod rom for samsung galaxy 551 also.......please..........i woud be very thankful to you if you do so.......
ReplyDeleteBro,could you please tell me the procedure to increase my internal memory?I am getting sick of this notification message internal memory full.
ReplyDeleteI always wonder why don't the people use the search bar at the top right of the site. Anway find a article about how to install apps to sdcard and how to partition your sdcard and go through them.
ReplyDeleteYou will fist need to partition your sd-card then you can use one of the partition to install apps to it using s2e or a2sd. Search here and go through the articles and comments to learn more.
Thanks Yagya ,it's amazing. Excellent customization features, incredible sound,fast processing even without overclocking, fully working flash player.....First time when i flashed rom it got stuck in android logo, but worked OK when i flashed second time.Waiting for the stable version of CM9. Once again thanks Yagya and XDA - Developers.
ReplyDeleteHello Melvin can you confirm that you did not need to install flash player to see flash content?
DeleteI ask that because I didn't know that it was pre-installed or out-of-the-box...
Thanks.
About the ROM itself I find it is very stable. The only glitches I found were those that were already reported. Being the battery status the most problematic. But nothing that cannot easily be circumvented.
Cheers for the developers they're almost there.
I am stuck on android screen. Wiped everything including dalvik cache. But no luck. I was able to install CM 7 few months back but here I am lost. Any urgent help appreciated.
ReplyDeleteInstalled CWM 4.0.0.6 and could proceed one step ahead. Now stuck on android logo screen. I dont understand why this is not working. Previous CM 7 installation worked very smoothly. :(
ReplyDeleteIt will take some time at that screen during first boot. If it doesn't boot up after a long time also then change your clock work mod version to the oldest b4 release and then try following the instructions from above again.
ReplyDeletethe ringtone of my phone doesnt change....... i tried several time restarting the phone but it doesnt change and its stuck on only one ringtone...which after deletin is also active!! plz help!
ReplyDeleteSir I. have updated my galaxy pop to cm7.2.0 v 5.4 and seen that my market ,maps, gmail etc were missing plz help what shud I do pleassssse
ReplyDeleteThanks Yagya. As usual you have given a genuine solution to my problem. Yes I have to flash old CWM version. After flashing the old CWM version it gave me few errors. But again after reboot those errors disappeared. I then flashed CMW again and then it worked. Thanks a lot.
ReplyDeleteI think key here to use old CWM version to flash. If it does not work in the first attempt then wiping data and cache and rebooting the phone and then re-flashing the ROM should work.
If you are trying to set a mp3 file as ringtone then make sure it is of short length and try again. Also, try changing by moving the mp3 to system/media/ directory inside appropriate folders.
ReplyDeleteAlso, if you were able to do this in your previous rom then you can change to that one or reflash this rom hoping it will work fine after that.
Yes, now you are getting it. I don't know why but the later version of CWM is throwing error after flashing a rom for many peoples out there. But, for me it is working pretty fine.

ReplyDeletethanks yagya, but can i ask something, after i wipe the data and cache it goes to normal, but what if that will happen again? what should i do? do i have to wipe the data and cache again.. pls help me and thank you so much
ReplyDeleteyagya do i have to install again the update fixes after i wipe the data and cache? pls tell me
ReplyDeleteNo, you don't need to wipe data and cache again and again. You do it once just after you flash any rom. Also, make sure you flash a2sd scripts again if you want to use them.
ReplyDeleteI am having the same problem. I think I need to downgrade back to rc 5.2
ReplyDeleteIt fixed after flashing both audio fix an update system and kernel. try it.
ReplyDeletehi, how is the camera quality? and which is better MOD 7.2.0 rc5.4 or MOD 7.2.0 rc5.5?
ReplyDeleteCamera quality is pretty good. Try the latest one, it seems to be better for me.
ReplyDeletethanks Yagya...just one more question, is it a must I update the audio fix and the system kernel with MOD 7.2.0 rc 5.5? thanks again.
ReplyDeleteNo, the updates includes all fixes. Only download the hotfixes and updates in the same article only. Fixes from previous version are not required.
ReplyDeletethanx Yagre...am loving this rom, everything is just perfect even the camera which was ma major concern...CHEERS everyone, en make sure you follow all the instructions. Looking forward to mod 9.0.
ReplyDeleteHi, after following your guides for RC5.5 and RC5.4 both times I end up with the Android skating logo for like 15 mins. What could I have done wrong? Did I have to be rooted before doing this?
ReplyDeleteNo, you don't have to be rooted. The problem is with your version of CWM recovery. Flash older CWM v4.0.0.5 and try again. No doubt it will work after that.
ReplyDeleteThanks. I've overclocked my phone with a custom kernel for now, but I will definitely try your advice somewhere in the future!
ReplyDeletehi..can i flash this mod with android custom recovery??
ReplyDeleteYes, you can flash it with any custom recovery for galaxy mini.
ReplyDeletei want to change DHCP to static IP. How can i change the setting?
ReplyDeleteWhat is the latest release of cyanogenmode for samsung pop gt-s5570? and the latest stable version?
ReplyDeleteLatest unofficial cyanogen mod is 7.2 RC5.7 and it also seems to be stable one. Try it. Latest official version is 7.2 RC1 you can search here for them.
ReplyDeleteI believe you mean you don't want to you DHCP and instead want to use static IP for connection. If that is so, you can manage the settings at Settings>>Wireless & Networks>>Wireless Settings and then press menu button to go to ADvance options. There you will be able to set Static IP and DNS server.
ReplyDeletewhy is the android market not available after applying this rom??
ReplyDeleteIn most CyanogenMod roms you will need to flash Google Apps to make Market, Youtube, GMail and other google apps appear.
