CM7 2.0 Bugs i5500 - Samsung Galaxy 5 I5500

Thought rather than creating a new thread for each bug found in subpsyke's latest release of CM7 for the i5500 (20120206) we should just compile them here, perhaps make life slightly easier for the developer???
BB
I5500NEJP1
Upgraded form CM7 1.9 hf3
Couldn't install apps from the market, phone gave 'not enough space' error during install of apk. I experienced a similar problem in early versions of CM7.
Also theme chooser app behaving strangely, only two available themes in there, one of which was not displayed correctly.
MUCH LOVE TO THE DEVS FOR THE SMARTPHONE REPUBLIC.

Good initiative on creating this thread!
I´m having the same problem with the theme chooser, where it won´t display one of the themes. I have 3 themes, and one of them (androidian) displays as a black rectangle.
So far, nothing other than that.

Everytime psyche release a new version of te CyaogenMod porting for our GT-I5500 I take a look into the zip file of the rom.. I do that 'cause I use to remove some bloat I don't use and something I don't need, like live wallpapers, quite all the CM wallpapers (which i finf horrible), File Manager (I insert RootExplorer), ADW Launcher (I get my version of ADW Launcher EX) and so on..
Usually I also use to remove 2 of the 3 defult themes of this rom, 'cause I never liked them.. They were called Androidian and Cyanbread, if I well remember..
but this time, in version 2.0 I cannot find anymore those themes, so I assume that only the default theme this time is been installed into this version..
Infact into my Theme Chooser there is only the default theme (and the 2 I installed after first use, I love LunarUI!! )and much of all I cannot notice any error on Theme Chooser!!
I think that you could consider wiping your cache and your data; if this could not help flash alla gain from start! If you don't want to loose your data (but I'm sure you have not so much data after 1 day of use, or you already backup before flash this new version) wait for a psyche reply (if he will read) or post directly into the MadTeam forum..
Anyway, for me, no error till now.
2.0 - h2

Forgot to mention, wasn't able to download apps from the market while connecting through wifi.
Browsing was fine but had to connect through 3G to get the app to start downloading.

Perhaps because I didn't perform a data wipe/factory reset during upgrade maybe?

Yeppa!!! That's always first thing that we could do when we come into strange issues! I also think that a bug is not a bug 'till we tried to make some wipe!!!

I had no problems downloading from the market.
A rather strange thing happened today: when the alarm came on, the screen was totally black, and i could not set the alarm off. The phone was charging, so i unplugged it, and after a while the screen came back on.

I guess it took a while for the Alarm program to load.
It happens to me with calls sometimes. I might be browsing the web, then I get a call, and I can't answer it because the screen is black. It would be good if we could answer with the physical button, but I can't find any settings to get it working.

brainvision, do you mean to tell me i can choose what will be installed as my system apps by taking out the apks and replacing them with whatever i want??!!
I had no idea this was possible do i have to unzip>edit>rezip or can i just replace the files with a zip explorer?
finally i can have rootexplorer as my system file manager

I´m getting a lot of screen-related bugs...
I´m gonna do a wipe, re-install, and see if it gets better.
Is the any way to backup all my data and apps, so i don´t have to download it all again?
Thanks

Titanium Backup * Root is what you need here. It should come preinstalled on all android devices in my opinion.
It will allow you to backup all your existing apps and system data to your SD card so one you've reflashed your device you need only download Titanium and restore them.
- You could save a copy of the Titanium apk to your SD so you wouldn't even have to download that

sure you can, but you will indeed loose the signature/md5 of the file, but if you don't use the signature verification in CWM you won't need it.. anyway you MUST pay attention when modifying those files, 'cause they will go to replace system files into your phone, so be sure they are not corrupted (for example veryfy files with the archive manager).
Usually I use to unzip all the folder and then zip it again: but I do that 'cause I need to remove / change a lot of files (I remove all non italian/english languages, for example).. if you want to remove only the FileManager.apk you can do that directly with WinRAR: remove it and then add RootExplorer.apk (I follow the same name style)..
Just a little note: I'm not sure that all the apk you will put in will work!! For example once I tryed to do that with SamsungApps apk but it didn't start!!
enjoy!!

Anyone else having crash issues (stops responding) with the calendar?
Particularly the day view? It seems that it hangs half the time I'm trying to use it, particularly if I try to sweep it before doing anything else.
This with 2.0 and hotfix2 applied, using Finnish language.

Yes, same thing here. If I try to change days, the applications freezes.
I am experiencing a lot of crashes and freezes. I did a full wipe before the install, but i´m still having problems. Anyone else?

Trying to reproduce the issue you reported: what exactly did you do when you encountered crashes? Actually I try with browsing from day to day with the classical 1 day view of the calendar, but no crashes here!

Well, when i open the calendar in 1 day view, if i navigate to the sides using the navigation buttons, the app freezes and after a while i get an error message saying the app is not responding, and i have to force-end it.
This doesn't happens if i use the touchscreen, only if i use the navigation buttons.
Asides from that, i´m getting random crashes and freezes that didn't happen in v1.9... i´m considering a downgrade.

OK man, now I got it! It happens even for me.. i freezes and you cannot do anything else but break the process!
I'll report this issue to the MadTeam forum, if you still didn't do it by yourself..
