As the work on the hardware control options is taking longer than expected, here is a beta version with the other new features: PhoenixMiner 2.7a. It can be downloaded from here:

Here are the checksums to verify the download:

Note that this is not an official release and the hardware control and solo mining features are not included in it (they will be included in the final 2.7 release). The changes are:

Improvements in switching between normal mode and devfee mode to avoid some GPUs "losing" their overcloking/undervolting settings
Increase the frequency of getWork requests to lower the probability of stale shares
Added support for direct mining of Akroma, WhaleCoin, and Victorium without DevFee switching (use akroma, whale, or vic in the -coin parameter)
Show warning messages and more detailed error messages when the virtual memory is low, or GPU memory is not enough for DAG allocation
Other small improvements and changes

I just tried it and no go. Please confirm that solo mining/direct mining to geth or parity remains a non-feature with 2.7a. Thanks.

from the developer earlier

PhenixMiner does not support dual mining. However we are working on this feature and will introduce it
soon. Solo mining is not supported too as we feel that it is not very practical with the current
mining difficulty.

Ya that is the original statement from like the 2.3 release. I have been following all along and the Dev said he would try to get solo/geth/parity mining out with 2.7a, thus the question to confirm that it is not working as I don't want to troubleshoot something if it is still not available. Alot of past release notes are no longer valid when there are 5 or 6 releases since.
