thats technically impossible to be connected without APN
maybe contact your telco and add a data apn block from their end
that is what I did for my girlfriends line
camera indeed force closes
-likely due to kernel lol

What not working:
so far everything works.

Ignore post

Does Wifi/Bt on yet or is that broken.
I thought 2.3 wasnt on g1 yet cause of some of the other ginger threads saying it's not supported anymore..

LOL
might try it in the morning when i remove my g1 from the ps3 lol but looking forward to this "AOSP 2.3" build
"everything works"
wonder if its a 2.2.1, cyanogen 6.1 with a theme on top and build.prop edited to show 2.3
by all means im not slagging your work. i will test in the morning and edit post accordingly

Exciting news. Will test. Thanks for the Share.

In any case a nice froyo theme.

Wait, is this actually real?

Seriously why lie?

just a suggestion: when you post screenshots of the Market, you might want to find one where the Market is working. "no matching content in Android Market". You fail, sir.

Wow, the themes not even complete -_-
The menus are white not black, the settings aren't supposed to be colored like that, and the dialer is the old one from froyo/eclair
Troll harder, bro

So can anyone give final confirm: Is this actually a 2.3 based rom, or just a themed CM?

No I am not affiliated, but I do not think they'd post a Alpha version on this site. I think they choose to provide XDA with complete versions, but people are so impatient for MIUI so I thought I inform those who have not yet been informed.

Can some one please help i have ni idea how to create this path: /data/system/theme. Now you can apply themes.in root explorer to get themes to worklease help.

Use root explorer or any root accessible file manager. Go to data/ system/ then this is where you need to create the new folder renamed to theme.

Nightly Skyrocket AOKP Builds [UNOFFICIAL]

Figured I'd make my personal AOKP builds available to the public domain. I basically took AOKP source, added CM9's MSM8660, SkyRocket, and QCOM_MEDIA source to the mix. Changed a couple XML files and voila get AOKP built with SkyRocket support.
I'm not developing anything, just compiling and making the builds available to those that want to try. I've been cherry picking fixes important for SkyRocket from the CM9 team before they're merged, too.
One thing I did notice was the Camera doesn't get built/added, but downloading a camera from the Store seems to work fine. Other than that, everything appears to be working. I'd be interested in hearing what works and doesn't work.
CM9 is my daily driver, but did this for some fun. I have detailed instructions on what I do to a stock AOKP source to get it to compile if you want them.
Thanks go out to the usual suspects...
Team Chopsticks
CyanogenMod Team
AOKP Team
I'm sure there are others, but not sure who they since I grabbed from Github sources.
Feel free to mirror. I will post updates everyday to the link below.

as always, tons of fixes for devices and other backend fixes!

Installation Instructions
Here's what I do...
DARKSIDE WIPE (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1477955)
Format CACHE (Super important that you don't skip this. Darkside does something to /cache that causes CM9/AOKP to boot loop)
Install AOKP zip
Install GAPPS zip (http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip)
Reboot
Open System Settings->More (under Wireless & Networks)->Mobile Networks->Access Point Names
Select the WAP APN...
a. APN = PTA
b. Username = BLANK (delete whatever is there)
c. MMSC should be http://mmsc.mobile.att.net
d. MMS Proxy = proxy.mobile.att.net
e. Hit Menu button and select SAVE​
Give it a few seconds and data should be working
Install camera app from Google Store (I'm working on getting this to compile into the build)
Build Instructions
Here's what I do starting from the root of the build directory
Setup up AOKP repo and sync it (i.e. repo init -u git://github.com/AOKP/platform_manifest.git -b ics && repo sync)
Create a file called local_manifest.xml in .repo directory with the text below.
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<manifest>
<project name="CyanogenMod/android_device_samsung_skyrocket" path="device/samsung/skyrocket" remote="gh" revision="ics" />
<project name="CyanogenMod/android_device_samsung_msm8660-common" path="device/samsung/msm8660-common" remote="gh" revision="ics" />
<project name="TeamChopsticks/android_kernel_samsung_msm8660-common" path="kernel/samsung/msm8660-common" remote="gh" revision="ics" />
<project name="TeamChopsticks/android_vendor_samsung_skyrocket" path="vendor/samsung/skyrocket" remote="gh" revision="ics" />
</manifest>
Run "repo sync" again to get the above added trees
Edit device/samsung/skyrocket/overlay/packages/providers/TelephonyProvider/res/values/config.xml
Delete config_preferred_apn line and save
Edit device/samsung/skyrocket/overlay/packages/apps/Settings/res/values/config.xml
Delete has_led_flash line and save
Edit device/samsung/skyrocket/full_skyrocket.mk
Change the word "Torch" to "Camera" and save
Create a file called "skyrocket.mk" in vendor/aokp/products with the text below
Code:
$(call inherit-product, device/samsung/skyrocket/full_skyrocket.mk)
# Inherit some common CM stuff.
# $(call inherit-product, vendor/cm/config/gsm.mk)
$(call inherit-product, vendor/aokp/configs/common_phone.mk)

These are the steps that work for me. I hope they work you as well. Let me know and I'd be happy to help.

so would i install this the same way as i do cm9 (instruction wise)?

That's correct. I'd do a full wipe and install. I've been running the 6/3 build for 24 hours with no problems. Only thing I had to do was install camera 360 and change apn to PTA.

Yes and no, is it more up to date with the work being done? Yes, but are you expected to run into bugs? Yes.
The wafflehouse builds are tested, modified, played with, and released on a basis of what works, and you know in advance usually.
With nightly builds you NEVER know what the state of it will be. Data may not work on one, but work on the next nights, camera might work on one but not the next nights etc. Since these roms are in a constant state of development right now you never know what may happen.
So yes these are a bit more up to date than wafflehouse.
Better, is subjective to the build and build date.
If you really like messing with your phone and a flash junky, use the nightlies, if you want someone to help out and make sure things work stick to waffles.

is it possible that this may work on the t989?
