CyanogenMod 7.0 stable version is now available: 1, 2

It includes Android 2.3 Gingerbread stock platform (actually Android 2.3.3), app2sd capabilities, root access, incognito mode for the Android Browser, CPU frequency adjustments and clocking through governor selection, OpenVPN & SIP, USB/WiFi/Bluetooth tethering, FLAC support, an FM Radio player, play/pause with camera buttons, trackball wake and a number of features, changes and enhancements over the original rom.

There are some issues still that I have identified, most of them comming from the original Android 2.3. For me these include:

  • Exchange/Corporate sync issue: 1
  • Bug in unchecking Background data box: Issue 2931
  • Answering delay: 1,2,3, (probably related to the exchange sync bug. both of them seem to be caused from the issue that causes receiving broadcasts to stop after some time.)
