Here is a link to the nightly CM6 builds being compiled by the guys at #teamdouche.
Obviously if you are using a G2 you would choose the Vision folder.
NIGHTLY BUILDS Here
HPDI GAPPS Here
Credit to TeamDouche for their amazing dedication and hard work!
If you want this link to stay up, do NOT bug #TeamDouche do not ask them any questions, do not report any bugs, let them do their job!!!!!
THESE DO NOT INCLUDE GOOGLE APPS AND ARE STILL BUGGY. DO A NANDROID BACKUP, WIPE AND THEN FLASH
________________________________
People this is just the link to where you can find the nightlys... they are not for the new flasher/modder! Don't expect them to be stable at all.
RC1 is on the way... once that is up and running the nightly will fair your way for testing.
Again, IF YOU ARE NEW OR FAINT OF HEART DO NOT FLASH THE NIGHTLY BUILD.
The nightlies are back up

Yeah they've been up for almost 2 days I just didn't tell anyone since I didn't want them to get pulled again...
Thanks in advance, I should be getting the g2 this week. I probably won't test out any nightlies until after rc1, and even then maybe wait a little and see how it goes. So this will be where the nightly discussions are?
YES! Time to flash!
God I hope people don't pester devs with questions. . .
Questions/troubleshooting by users should be placed in here
I can't remember is there a change log link for the nightlies??

for instance. The ending version can be left off if you want to specify the latest nightly as the end point:

Suggestions to improve this feature would be appreciated. Near term, I'd like to pull the oneline logs onto the buildbot page, but I haven't touched this in a little while.
Of course, you can also monitor @cmsrc or #cmsrc, and if you're good with the IRC channel you can even figure out which changes make which build.

Do you know why Gapps wont flash?
For GAPPS just inject them into the ROM before flashing and it works
Metamorph hasn't worked since nightly 10...

I could just be hallucinating but iirc cyanogen posted somewhere that the build should be compatable with the Z. I agree though, that place is a ghost town.

Running build 13 since 2 minutes after it came out and love it, everything works as far as I can tell including metamorph (just have system rw and it wont error out)
Sorry, but has anyone got this to work on the Desire Z?
The Desire Z forums are (relatively) quite empty at the moment.

My Wi-Fi tethering is working fine. I tested it yesterday and I am running CM Nightly build 13. I can't speak for usb tethering as I don't have a use for it and thus haven't tried it.

Previous versions didn't support the Incredible's wireless chipset, which was fixed in 2.0.6. You shouldn't have any issues now.

Thank you, works like a charm. I just keep getting happier and happier with my incredible.
If you like Sense, try Virtuous. It’s very good and stable debloated stock rom with a few treats like hulu and wireless tether built in. I used it for months before breaking down and jumping to CM7.
So I saw through Reddit that they were releasing this for like 70 devices. Anyone try it? How similar is it to the various KANG builds we have for our device?
I'm downloading now, so ill post my thoughts.
Sent from my Incredible 2 using XDA
so far it seems to be very similar to the Kangs. It does feel a teeny bit more responsive than those others.
The low volume on call bug is still present, but flashing aeroeven's .8 kernel fixes this just as it does in the KANG builds.
I didn't experience the multi touch issue that seems to be plaguing some users, but for what it's worth i didn't experience it on the KANG builds either.
The keyboard didn't stick for me while typing at all. i spent about 5 minutes typing random words into an email and it didn't stick once.
Edit: when logging into I heart radio the keyboard was sticky as hell.
one thing i've noticed is that once the market finally switches to google play, the label says Market, but it has the play icon.
excuse a newb
So I downloaded and installed 7.2 but when I try to add a new account to sync, it says it cant connect to the server. Ideas?
Also, what is this flashing kernel to get rid of low in-call volume?
Thanks!

I'm using the .8 bfs at this time with good results, but you can use the cfs as well. Either will work, just different schedulers.
and....im a moron and just never flashed google apps. rom works perfectly.
I personally like kangs release better than this. I use swiftly x for my keyboard, and many times it lags when I type. Opera Web browser doesn't work for me, which is the browser I prefer. Long wait time switching between wifi and 3G. These are the issues I am having. Yes I wiped everything coming from kangs build before flashing this. I tried "fix permissions " and even uninstalled and reinstalled the apps that were misbehaving, but nothing has fixed these problems.
Sent from my DINC2
I tried the official build but it wasn't surprising to me that the most of the same issues that plague all cm7 builds for this phone are still present and the custom kernels don't really help to fix the problems. Im just going to stick with sense some more until cm works some of them out.

What do you feel is missing?
Sent from my ADR6350 using Tapatalk
A fix for the use of wireless tether v2.0.7. The overall feel of cm just isn't there. Its not quite as smooth as I remember and I really hate that when I listen to music and try to do other things it causes the music to lag for a second. The call volume was still very low which I figured would be something they would address but they didnt. Wireless tether app not working is pretty much a deal breaker for me though. I have to use my phone for my home internet and the hotspot just isn't a very reliable connection most of the time and its very annoying to get disconnected and have to reconnect constantly.

I found RC1 to be more stable than the last stable 7.1.0.1 release. Everything works for me including wireless tether, and I have not had any stability issues. The compass issue is also gone, which is a welcome change for me. (Trying to navigate Boston on St. Patty's after a few green beers via a compass that always points the wrong direction was not particularly easy.)
The only thing I have noticed is that the FM Radio will force close periodically if a notification noise chimes while I am listening, but it did that on 7.1.0.1, too. However, on 7.1.0.1, it would require a reboot rather than simply reopening the app. All in all, I'm pretty stoked. I am looking forward to stable and CM9 (hopefully) down the road.

I have been in search of a good kernal, but aeroevan's link on rootzwiki aren't working. I was running Skyraider Zeus but just switched to CM7.1.0.1 and was going to try the Tiamat kernal, but just saw that 7.2 was up. Any thoughts on whether I should switch to 7.2 and where I can get the aeroevan kernal if the link isn't working?

You better belive we will have a stable version. HTC has announced that we will get ics. And cm is still being developed for our phone despite the fact that they will have to redo a lot when the right drivers are released. Looking forward to it. Hopefully the camera won't suck.

I have read HTC's announcement. I say "hope," because I am going from Cyanogen's "Will [insert device] get CyanogenMod 9?" flow chart (see Ricard Cerqueira's Google+ page). Even with the release of ICS, there is still only a 75% chance. The only devices that are certain at this point are those that already have CM9 nightlies. Given HTC's slowness releasing kernels, etc. and my general cynical disposition, I'll believe it when I see nightlies released for the Incredible 2.
Hi guys. Has anyone else tested this rom yet? Been running it for a little over a week and except for the known issues with JB it is really solid. There hasn't been anything in the thread since 8/5 and I anted to make sure it's still being developed.

I didnt think no nobody was using it. To be honest I had stop using it myself. Yes development will still be going on. The next update is going to be built from source. I tired to build it Saturday I believe but something was wrong with google's servers. So I will start on it today and see if I get any luck. :fingers-crossed: And also downgrade my Ubuntu from 12.04 to 11.10 that should fix some problems.

I'm loving your rom. It's my daily driver even without being fully functional. I've found that I don't have to take pictures or watch netflix to enjoy my EVO. I was on Reloaded prior to trying this one but could never get it to be totally stable. Sure it was user error but I haven't had 1 freeze or reboot with this one. Let me know if you need me to test something as I will be running this at least until reloaded .500 releases. I can still see this as a daily once it's complete.

Of course I like it I just never got mine too be totally stable. It would freeze on me often and I never took the time to figure out how to get a report using log cat so never had evidence of what was happening. Since I was pulling the battery to restart I didn't know if it would log something that happened prior to battery pull. Also could never get the widgets to survive a restart.

Subject: Problem w/(4G?)-HotSpot hack on "WILD FOR THE NIGHT" CM10.1-20130316-d710 (base-band version EK02)
So, I was recently *given* a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7" (p3113, WiFi only) by a buddy of mine, for helping him out with some significant things in real life. I know right? Very cool of my buddy. I'm in love with the tablet still (honeymoon period). It's not brand-new, but its new to me, so of course the first thing I did was root it, wipe it clean, and install unofficial a CM10.2 nightly build w/working IR from 080913. I'm staying on 080913 build since it's the latest build that supports TabletUI.zip, via Nova Launcher, which I also love by the way. Anyway, this tablet is the PERFECT compliment to my Sprint E4GT "Spider-Man Edition" (cracked screen, long story)
So, this recent tablet acquisition has given me reason to use the hotspot built into CM10.1, on my phone, under "Settings|More|Tethering & Portable Hotspot|Portable WiFi HotSpot. I had assumed up to this point that CM10.1 on my phone had the 4G hotspot hack pre-installed, but alas, when I use it to tether my tablet to get internet access on the tablet, only 3G mobile data appears to be working.
What gives with this? It'd been a while since I've been keeping up with the E4GT ROM/hack scene, so is there some hack zip that I need to install in order to take advantage of tethering and 4G on this ROM? Thanks will be given in multitude for any assistance. Thanks.

Edit... finally found out who made this app... TrevE....so thank him if it works for you
This appears to work as you said!! (Thanks given to your reply)
I configured the first option in the settings menu of this app for "Sprint Epic 4G Touch, and also enabled "Access Control" (whatever that means, care to explain that for me?) and, low-and-behold, turning on 4G is no longer ignored by this new hotspot app, like it is by the stock CM10.1 hotspot app. SpeedTest.Net confirms that 4G is actually in use. The differences in speed between 3G and 4G are only marginal at best in many locations, but that is on Sprint's crappy WiMax 4G implementation, and not the fault of the hotspot app you linked me to. With the SpeedTest.Net app, I'm getting about 0.8Mb/s average download speed while sitting at my desk in my office (indoors), when only 3G is enabled on the phone. but I'm getting about 1.7Mb/s when using this newly-suggested hotspot app with 4G enabled on the phone. So clearly it's working, and that that extra 1Mb/s (or sometimes slightly more) can be the difference between smooth video playback on YouTube (or whatever video app), versus frequent pausing for buffering when watching a video link sent by a friend to my phone. It's also makes Google Maps and Google Navigation much faster AND more responsive when I'm on the interstate, where the 4G coverage is generally pretty good here in the DFW area. SO, I'll kjeep you posted if I run across any major bugs,m but this suggestion appears to allow to now tether by tablet to my phone with actual 4G WiMax. Thank you SO much for your suggestions and links!

Thanks for the kind words... Being able to help someone out is the part I most enjoy about this site.. You can let me know about any issues you have , but just to make sure you know.. This isn't my app.. Just found a drop box link while looking for myself and others and it worked. I'm still not sure who made it..lol. It might say in the app, but I'm not currently using it as I'm on projectX ROM and its tether works great..
Hey there... thanks for the follow-up. Still working like a champ bro, AND it does something else that the stock tethering app doesn't do: it allows the ability to only allow "Approved devices" (by MAC address) to connect, in addition to (or I think even instead of) setting a WPA2 password. It even shows you in the phone's notification bar which approved devices are currently connected, and plays a custom notification sound when an unapproved device attempts to connect. Combine that with a home screen widget for 1-touch toggling, and the MacroDroid app set up to automatically turn on data and 4G when the tether app is turned on, and this is now officially the coolest thing on my phone. I know you didn't create it (nor did you ever claim to), but you did link me to an app that ended up exceeding my wildest expectations. THANK YOU BROTHER.

That way others might see it, if they need help or the mod's can delete if they deem it so.. Good luck.

Will this work on a rooted yet stock 4g? FWIW I'm not running Touchwiz I've got Nova.
Thanks as I've got the apk ready to go if someone gives me the thumbs up.

It will work..... and you are on touchwiz... you're just using a 3rd party launcher.. (Nova is one of my favorites )...
If you need help setting it up... I linked to my settings above.. you might have to play with it though as you are on tw.. I said I was on tw, but it was a custom rom that was tw based with a 4g hotspots hack... so I didn't need it.. Should work on stock rooted though...
Let me now

Thanks for that help! I configured it according to the link you posted but to no avail. It says it's running but I can't find the SSID when trying to connect another computer to it. I also don't see the icon on the top of my screen indicating that I'm connected to 3g. Is this app only for 4g?

No... it will work with 3g too.... try playing with the settings... remember, those settings of mine where for an aosp rom (slimbean)...
Also... if you decide you don't like it or can't get it to work... after you delete the app... boot to recovery and wipe cache and dalvik cache. This will get rid of the binaries installed by the app.

Thanks for all the help! Last night I changed the setup method to Softap for Samsung (master) and actually got the 3g icon to show and I thought it was going to work but I could not find the SSID and there were also errors recorded in the log. I'm at work now in an all metal building and can't get a signal but I will try again and report back. Thanks again!
Oh, and we're sure this setup, if I get it to work, is totally unknown to Virgin? I would hate them to boot me for doing this. (oh, and how ridiculous is it to charge for data that I'm already paying for!?!?) One reason I got the S2 from Virgin online is because it stated wifi tethering as a feature. Nowhere did it say I had to pay for this feature. But that's another story.

You should be safe from virgin knowing... atleast I've never been caught by sprint or boost..
As for the error's... I always had error's on my setup.. but it worked.. keep trying, I know there is a setup to get ya going...
If you end up not getting it to work.... you could try an app from the playstore... or as a last resort you could flash a custom rom based on tw.. the tw roms have working 4g hacked hotspots.. you would need to change you're apns once you have the new rom flashed so you have data.. no biggy there..

I can't get this or any tethering app to work. I've tried modding my build.prop file with the .tether.denied=false item as well - to no avail. I think it's because I'm on IceCream Sandwich??? Anyway, I'm rooted, stock ROM and all I want to do is enable wireless tethering. I really feel no need or desire to install a custom Rom. So, can I do it somehow? I am on the Epic 4G Touch forum, someone has to know.
Also, you mentioned clearing my delvik cache and something else but I have no idea how to do it. I tried installing clockwork mod but I could find no option for the Epic 4G Touch. There was an option to create a backup for the Epic 4G but not the touch. I figured at least if I did this I'd have the option of clearing the cache.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks again.

I see you said that you ( tried ) installing clockwork mod.. so I'm assuming you tried it with Rom Manager... I will say this once.. Do Not Use That To Install Recoveries on this device.. you will end up with a brick...
We have to use Odin,mobile Odin and there is a couple other ways ( involving a terminal emulator ) to install recoveries on this device.. You see.. our kernel's and recoveries are tied together.. So to install a custom recovery, we have to flash/install a custom kernel..
Let me ask you this.. how did you root and what superuser app are you using..

Yeah, I tried installing it with Rom Manager, I can go ahead and uninstall it then. I rooted using some solution I found online and honestly I don't remember what it was but it was very simple. I am using Superuser 3.1.3 (46). Was that what you were asking??
I really would hate to be one of those people who hasn't done their homework and then expects everyone else to answer their questions - I hate those people. I succesfully installed CM10 to my HP Touchpad so I feel pretty good being able to at least accomplish that feat.
Thanks for your help. Hey I guess if I make a successful backup of how my phone is now, I can play with other roms. Maybe this is the jumping in point for me right here. Thanks!
Now to figure out these damned captcha codes!

Ya.. this could be the start of you loving you're phone again.. :fingers-crossed:
I always suggest new people to read up before doing anything...
Also.. I suggest starting out with the touchwiz roms.. they will be more familiar to new users as well as a little easier to trouble shoot.. I believe..
They also have the better data speeds and the 4g hotspots hack..
Just read up.. if you need any help.. I'm always around.. but first things first.. read up on custom recoveries... once you have one installed with a kernel that will work for you're stock rom you can make a backup... you could make one with another custom recovery/kernel combo, but let's just keep it simple for now.
In rwilco's repo you can find just about anything you need... modems( read about ),kernel/recoveries, and many other things. Just remember and read about the emmc brick bug in ICS..
Being as you are new and not on JB.. a one-click for Odin on windows will be our first step if you choose to proceed. From there you can flash just about anything you want... I can link you to a little guide I put together for a really easy way to flash/install new roms, kernels/recoveries.
Let me know what ya think...

Thank you for the quick reply. I'll certainly take any info you give me. Like I said, I don't want all the answers, just a point in the right direction and ideas.

Start reading the stickies in the Android development section.. a very good starting point..
Also.. don't worry about asking questions.. we all start out as noobs.. lol. But you have the right attitude..plus.. when you find the answers yourself, I always think they stick better and you also get that feeling of accomplishment. You'll make a good member here with the way you are looking at it... but I also know that when you come to that first flash... it can be nerve racking.. So if you get stuck or not sure where to head.. just hit me up.. Good Luck..

Okay thanks. I'm still thinking about all of this. I'm thinking I'm not committed enough to do it right now and it may be a case of the cure being worse than the disease. I mean all I really want to do is make wifi tethering work. I'm afraid I don't have the time necessary to tinker with all of this esp since I am very happy with my Android user experience so far with this phone.
Besides the tethering fix, what other benefits would there be to installing a custom rom. Or... what would make a custom rom better than Jellybean? Is installing a custom rom the only way I can backup my current system?
Thanks again though for all of your help.

For me.. it's about customization.. Being able to change my status bar( color, transparency, icon, clock position, )..and many other things..
Also... I find that the custom roms are smoother than stock roms...
As for backing up you're system... you can backup you're data on a pc/mac...but if you're wanting to do full system backup's....I think rooting and a custom recovery are the only way to go.. ( but I'm not positive , as I've never looked into it.. )
