I have been reading where people are getting the nightly CM7 builds. I was wondering first off how do I go about setting this up. Secondly does this wipe your setting every time? It would be a pain to have to setup the phone every day. Also I have ripped out the ADW launcher as I find the Go Launcher to be superior is this something that would be overwritten? Thanks in advance for the knowledge, still new to the forum and handicapped as far as knowledge base when it comes to this.

Nightly builds can be downloaded via ROM manager, you need to have a premium licence though or you can get them from here.
I theory all of your setting would remain the same, but sometimes nightly builds can be unstable and broken, but for the majority of the time you would not experience any issues.
Have you installed go launcher to system/app? If so you would lose this every time you flash because flashing a rom rewrites the system partition. But if you have just installed it like a normal app it still be there after you flash.
Hope this helps

That helps immensely. I have attempted to purchase the full Rom Manager to no avail. It just sits in the verifying state. So I just returned it. If I dl it from the mirror I'll have to install from recovery not the rom manager because to install from a zip is also only in the premium license version.
As for the settings. I just installed the Go Launcher like any other app no special settings. So I should be good?

To be honest your better not using rom manager and just doing everything manually in recovery, rom manager is known to on occasion cause issues. And yes if you flash a new nightly go launcher would still be there. Just do a nandroid first to be safe

At the moment I am just running the CM 7 release 7.0.2. It is running great. I'm running it in conjuntion with Pershoots kernel and couldn't be happier. Just thought it'd be nice to check out new builds every so often just didn't want to spend 2 hours reconfiguring my phone again.
As for using recovery, I may actually do that. I have been wanting to get more into the process and what not. Having to root the phone through ADB got me interested more in the inter workings of these little devices that run our lives.

The reason I asked what verson you were on is because if you do start using the nightlys you can't then downgrade to a stable release with out doing full wipes. Due to nightys being 2.3.4 and stables being 2.3.3
CWM is fairly easy to use

Actually just read the last couple pages of the nightly thread. They have a stable release of 7.0.3. Dling right now to check it out. Thanks for the knowledge.

Hello xda, I'm running the latest version of JB 1.7.1 jandycane it works great overall but I'm facing a problem with chrome, as soon as I download it from the play store open it , it crashes. Any fix?

gadgetman13 said:
In the interests of helping track down the problem... I have been a user of this rom since it was first out and only one thing wasn't working for me (and an issue we saw in ICS for a while as well) - after sleeping for a while, it wouldn't reconnect to my wifi automatically, I had to turn the wireless off and back on. So I was wondering why people were having issues with Chrome or other apps.
Yesterday, with the official release of 1.7.1 (not the one earlier), I wiped my kindle clear - wiped everything but the SD card - factory, both caches, system, you name it. Installed 1.7.1 from TWRP, GAPS (0726), cleared both caches again, and rebooted. Chrome would not work for me. This was the first time in AGES that I had cleared system/factory reset, until then I had always just done a dirty install, cleared caches and things just worked - all the way back to the ICS days.
Today, I cleared everything again, system, factory reset, both caches. Installed jb-kfire-hashcode-07-13 and gaps, cleared caches, and rebooted. Went through the whole initial install stuff in this rom, downloaded chrome from the play and checked that it was working - it was. Then dirty-flashed 1.7.1 (I don't think I even did gaps now that I think of it), cleared caches and rebooted. Chrome is still working.
So... either dirty flashing isn't getting me the new rom (though I have quicknav tablet statusbar v2 working) or something different happens in the hashcode install than happens in the 1.7.1 bare install. Something worth looking into.
In any case, I'm up and running again, just have to re-install all my apps. Until told otherwise or I run into a problem, it's dirty-flashing only in my future.
Keep up the great work! Love this ROM!

You can also try this:
1) Uninstall Chrome
2) Find a older release of jandycane, such as 1.6.0 from goo.I'm and download it.
3) Clear cache and dalvik cache and flash.
4) Reboot into system.. you should bbe running 1.6.0 or another older version that you picked..
5) Go to the market and reinstall Chrome
6) Once Chrome is installed, set it up (enter your Google info)
7) Exit and return to goo.I'm and flash the latest version of jandycane
8) Once you are back in the lastest version, Chrome should work.
WARNING: Uninstalling Chrome will result in you having to do this again, but hey, your choice.

Chrome M18.1 Not Working
Last week I received a new version of Chrome M18.1 and now when I try to launch using Jandycane 1.7.2 it disappears, but is still running. I have tried uninstalling/re-installing with the same results. I tried flashing the ROM again, nothing.
Am I the only one having this issue?
Cheers!

Might the issue be with the Location Service?
I noticed other apps that try to use it can't detect it and that was one of chromes feature updates.

I've run into a strange problem I have fff extended and twrp installed and currently am running jandycane as my main, and the stock DoCoMo as salt but recently I tried to flash cm10 and when i tell twrp to install the ROM it starts to go then drops me back to the start up for twrp and then to the main selection screen, when I have tried to DL cm10 through goo manager it will DL the file then tell me the md5 sum is mismatched. On a side note I don't know if this a symptom of the problem or not but using an JohnNES when I save in game it will initially see the save but if I restart the app the saved game does not show but the file for it still exists.
Thanks in advance

I've just modded a friend's kindle.
I installed the FFF 1.4a bootloader and TWRP 2.2.2.1, followed by a Jellybean Rom (Jandycane).
I transferred about a gig of apps and media, and whilst transferring the kindle went into SOD.
I thought nothing of it and tried again with the same result.
So I then flashed (factory reset/ wipe cache/ wipe dalvik/ wipe system/ first)
"Unofficial AOKP Jellybean Milestone 1" followed by "Paranoid Android" (always wiping first).
Both these roms go into SOD whilst transferring via USB.
I'm now going to try an ICS rom (glazed).
I really wanted to give him the latest OS....
Is this an issue with all JB roms?
or am I missing something? (a tweak or mod, perhaps?).
Thanks

Thanks for that, downloading it now, and will flash later, and let you know how I got on.

Maybe it's his kindle...

Downloaded and tried it, but still the same SOD problem (it only occurrs during USB transfer), over both Jellybean and ICS roms
I can't give my friend anything with any issues, he's not a tech-head, and likes stuff to just work.
I have also tried the "Gr9.2-update-modacocustomrom" and it (of course) works absolutely fine...
Also I noticed that the USB transfer was at least twice as quick on the Modaco rom.
So now I'm going to try CM7 based roms...
After you flash the Rom and get everything set up, boot into twrp and mount usb. Transfer your stuff over while mounted like this, it will transfer more quickly and not crash during transfer.

Thanks for your reply, I have in fact been using this method...
However I'm not setting this up for me, I could live with that or just transfer stuff via a file manager over wifi.
The guy I'm setting it up for, is clueless when it comes to tech, and I really would'nt want him messing with recovery, and the file manager way, will be too difficult for him.
I think I'm just going to install the rooted OFW and some apps and have done with it...
I have tried at least 5 JB roms and 3 ICS roms now, all with the same issue (at least on this device).
Is this a known issue? or just an issue with this particular device?
Thanks

I think you must be right, It's not something I've really come across in the forums...
Which is why I asked.
I don't think I've done anything wrong, I rooted, Installed a recovery, then a bootloader, then a custom rom.
I wipe cache, dalvik, system, and factory restore, between each rom flash.
However it's still definately happening on both JB and ICS roms (not the modded kindle firmware).
I guess it's a hardware issue to this particular device.
I've kind of got round it by installing the Modaco custom (kindle) rom, and using a seperate launcher (ADW). It's not Jellybean, but it's a reasonable alternative, especially since my friend is not all that tech-savvy, and would be expecting a bag of jellybeans, if I told him that was the firmware....

Actually, Josepho1997, the SOD is a pretty common problem with large file transfers when not using mounted TWRP. At least with sgt7/cm10 by twa_priv. I don't know about other JB ROMS, but I didn't think that ICS ROMS had that problem. I can't remember what it is, and not everybody experiences it, but if you have anything larger than a couple hundred megs of stuff top transfer, it is highly recommended that you use TWRP for your transfer.

My kindle does the same thing, on jandycane and aokp milestone. I just transfer via wifi.

TWRP and wifi both worked fine on all roms, I just needed a foolproof rom, for non-tech person (that only knows have to transfer stuff via USB).
In the end I flashed the modded Kindle firmware, and installed Espier launcher to make it as simple as possible....
I know it loses all of the JB goodness..., but It works fine with USB, and is great for a noob, that is'nt concerned about what OS he's running.

Xylon AOSP
Download : Xylon(k) 2.7.7 - 05.22.13
Standard gapps package is recommended. BaNkS gapps package is also a good choice.
I do -not- own this device so please be patient. This was not pretested in any way this time, so please report back promptly about any serious issues so I can try to get them resolved and so other users don't have to suffer the same fate.
for more information on the rom, please visit http://xylon.androidvenue.com or look at other xda xylon threads for pretty pictures and such.
This is -not- straight from source, there are many manual edits(additions, changes, removals) done after the rom is finished building before I upload it.
Thanks to the Xylon team for the sources.
Thanks to Chainfire for SuperSU

I wasn't able to download anything from the market either. I used latest Gapps for JB and also tried BaNks. It recognized that I had 20 apps to restore and even showed progress bars for downloading, it just never did. I did full wipe both times I tried different Gapps pkg. If I could download anything at all, this would be my daily. Blazing fast. The smoothest rom I've seen on my ns4g.

let me guess. were you on wifi? because i just tried again on regular 3g-4g and they all started downloading.....s-l-o-w-l-y... And then when i turned wifi back on they all stopped again. Turned wifi it back off and sure enough the progress bar started moving. I can download other things via wifi dropbox links etc, so im pretty sure its not the wifi here at home. Plus my laptop is on wireless and can dl stuff, but for some reason the market on the phone wont let me dl anything over wifi. very weird.

Couldn't hurt. And I'm open to suggestions on how to fix things and potential improvements. I am by no means an expert or real dev and as said before not owning the device makes it even harder to test out potential fixes. You can either pm it to me, or post it in this thread. Probably the thread way would be better so other users could potentially help out.
When reporting issues, please only do so from a clean install and not after restoring data. Also mention the gapps used.
