Do you guys recomend i flash all the nightly builds as they are updated?
and do i flash through CWM?
If a release candidate comes out we recommend you flash that... otherwise its up to you if you want to flash the nightlies.

And yes, you flash through CWM...
Don't forget to do a nandroid backup first!

ok so i have been using the cm7 rc1 rom for about 2 hours. i find it amazing since this is the first cyanogen anything i have flashed. but then after about 30 min i found there is no 4g so i did some searching and seen people using 4g on rc1 but i haven't seen anything related to how they got it. so what i am trying to figure out is how did they get it? because the only gb roms i have seen with 4g are salvage and the gginggerbread 6 rom
RC1 does not have wimax. The latest cyanogen nightlies released after RC1 have it working. Download the ones that say supersonic here:

I have 8 installed and am going to flash 12. Wimax works great.
thanks. i had no idea they kept up with the nightlys after the rc's. im still pretty new to all this
If I flash the nightly cm7 builds as they are released, should I flash my current kernel to it, or should I just leave it. Also, which is the best nightly so far?

Any time you flash a nightly it will overwrite the existing kernel so if you have a preferred kernel you can flash it after flashing the ROM. I personally am staying on CM7 RC4 as there haven't been enough changes other than bug fixes that I feel the need to update to the latest nightly. The first post in the CM7 RC2.5 thread in android development has a lot.
The stock kernel many people say is really good though some great alternatives that I have used are Chad's Incredikernel and Cayniarb's Tiamat kernel, the second of which I am using for the Dinc.
But don't all of the nightlys have different kernels?
Not every new nightly has a change to the kernel but when flashing any nightly, it'll flash the kernel on that nightly as the kernel is always part of a CM rom.
I don't believe the kernel has changed in the nightlies since March.
My advice is to try out the kernel and if you are not satisfied with it you can flash your current kernel on top of it.
Im currently on daily #69 and thinking about upgrading to the latest #111.
Should i upgrade to the latest? Im using the latest Telus radio as well. Is there a good kernel to use on top of the latest?
Cyanogenmod released 7.10 RC1 about two hours ago. Would recommend you go for that one instead of nightly 111. Mix it with LordModUE 4.5.1 and it should be a nice combo. Just be weary of battery drain issues if you flash the kernel version with 2 way call recording.
Full wipe is probably a good idea. Just nandroided and am about to flash myself.
I'm agree, prefer the 7.1 RC and you must do a full wipe because there is lot of changes between #69 and 7.1 RC. LordModUE is a very good option.
I am running the RC2 and I came from Fresh 4.2 where the updates show in the Fresh Updater, However in the Synerfy one it only shows one download. My question is how do you get the nightlies for RC2. Im not a noob just normally either went to Freshes website and checked or read the forums, just little confused with the new rom?
For the most part, Myn offers nightlies prior to a release candidate (RC) and while still is beta form. He rarely, if ever, offer nightly builds afterward reaching RC status.

I don't think there are nightlies to it. The Synergy Kingdom nightlies are based off something completely different.
What features does it have that the stable 7.1 doesn't?
Can it be flashed over 7.1 without wiping data?
Would it even be worth it, or better to just wait for an official CM 9 release?
I was using that for a long time before I switched to ICS. I did not wipe going from the stable build to the nightlies. Just make a nandorid backup if you are worried but you should not have any problems flashing over your current cm7.1
