Cyanogen beats ALL manufacturers to 2.3

Just read on Twitter. Cyanogen has 2.3. (sadly not for us).
But to put it in perspective. As their official Twitter announcement stated.
A bunch of GEEKS beat all manufacturers to 2.3 *Gingerbread* by reverse engineering their devices.
GREAT WORK ALL..

Do they mean they beat them to upgrading devices to 2.3? because there are already 2.3 devices out iirc.

yeah my buddy has been running CM7 for a few weeks now i think on his HTC Desire.
because of the camera and mms issues he went back to 6.1 though.

Either way progress up stream always helps us!

Not us specifically since we have already been told we wont be seeing cm for our device unless somebody not on the cm team ports it.

Just saying. Even if we never see CM7 there is still the knowledge that they gained that could be used.
More importantly it shows the ingenuity and selfless dedication that the DEVs in the community have..

Yeah that is true... imagine what amazing things we could get if some manufacturer would hire a couple of these devs and take the risk of having a totally open phone that could come rooted and available to theme and install roms on... the amount of work the developers we have could do if they were being paid an actual salary and had tons of coders and R&D and everything is just too much to think about. imagine how much money they could make from all the hacker/developer people that would jump on a device like that.

Shhhhh they may be listening. Besides if there is one thing a corporate board room can do its *^&%* UP a good idea.

Kaoscinate v5 for the fascinate is a cm7 port so I wouldn't doubt it if you could get that up and running without too much trouble once the hardware patches get put in.

so, has anyone flashed and rooted the desire? I have a friend with one and I figured i might hook him up with a cyanogen Rom...
Is it as easy as the galaxy S to work with?
And yes, I plan on reading the threads in the Desire before I get started,, i was just wanting a quick Opinion or two from some peeps i know

From what I have seen it's just as easy or easier and there's a much larger mod group for it. Just be careful that you are only using roms for cdma.

Please go play in traffic.

To explain the negative feedback you've gotten thus far, porting to the Thunderbolt is far more complicated than to the Droid 1. The part of the OS that interacts with the radio is (as of yet) unique to the Thunderbolt and essentially has to be reverse-engineered. Slayher and toastcfh are working on a port of CM7 but it is an extremely difficult project for this reason. It's a whole different ballgame on this phone. Nothing to do with the amount of love for it. If there were no love for it, Slayher would not be working so hard to develop a port of CM7.

Who are you referring to? Verizon or the modding community? Verizon continues to hype their 4G network and the Thunderbolt with it. I'm sure HTC has Android 2.3.4 so we'll see what they do with it. The modding community has been pretty good about building off the most recent AOSP builds, but with the Thunderbolt having the 4G radio it has taken a little longer. Give it time. The OG Droid has been around much longer and more people own it than the Thunderbolt. As people upgrade you'll see more and more development for this phone. Personally I'm very happy with how quickly the Thunderbolt was rooted and how quickly devs started tweaking things.

To many mad nerds on here, i was only asking if were gonna see some software upgrades, **** i was running 2.3 on my OG. But yah i can understand how its hard.

Official updates? Probably not till later this summer and who knows if it will be 2.3.3 or 2.3.4. We'll likely see if in CM 7 long before an official OTA

Considering the fact that this phone has barely been out for a month and a half i think the dev is going pretty good. I think that's why people are giving you crap for this post.
There's a few threads on getting 2.3 working on the thunderbolt so its a wip at this point. Htc is supposed to release 2.3 "soon" anyways.

Coming from a Dx, the tbolt has a TON of developer support behind it, it's the main reason i went ahead and used my upgrade (and locking in unlimited 4g) instead of waiting on the dual cores.

Hey, don't knock the OG Droid. That was a great little phone. It was my first Android phone.
The only reason I made my comment is because all the OP needed to do was click on TB development to see all the ROMs and support for this device. For only being out a month, there's a crazy amount of support.

OG Droid still rocks, I have one in front of me.
But dude obviously doesn't remember the wait for 2.1 on the OG.

put a nice silicone cover on it (sexual references meant) then show it love!
Only then can it be shown proper love .... lol
Sorry had this coming <<<<<
Anyway The Devs Are Doing The Thunderbolt Much Justice and are working and slaving for this device so there showing the love

[Q] G2x, SGSII or SGS4G?

Alright, I currently own an SGS4G and i love it but i feel as the development is very limited. While i appreciate all of the work that the devs have put in, I have noticed that other phone have a lot mor development and it doesn't seem as though our development community has that [email protected]$$ attitude that the community of other phones does. So, would it be wise to look at getting a G2x or an SGSII (if the US gets it)? I know @birgertime and @Krylon360 both have and develop for the G2x and I love Trigger and Bionix. So is it matbe time to look elsewhere?

First off I'm not gonna be one of those lil trolls saying "oh the devs put their heart out on their developement" type of deal. So imma say go for the SGSII cause its bigger, media powered, and will soon be more known than the iphone. G2x is just gonna be a phone that's know to us phone fanatics. SGSII is gonna be revolutionary...

But is it going to be released in the US? And thank you for not trolling, like i said, i love the devs for all of the work they put in, especially seeing as Krylon and birgertiome didn't have SGS4Gs of their own to model off of

I'm not impressed with my G2x, but it does have decent hardware. In my opinion, the battery is too small, it gets warm too easily, and what has really begun to bother me is it seems like data seems to stop working randomly; it'll look normal and show that it is sending info, but won't receive data for a minute for no reason. It did this on stock, and now on cm7 rc1. Not a deal breaker, but definitely my reasoning for using my sgs4g as my daily driver over it.
The processing power is great, development is good, and it's a good "feeling" phone to hold, but it definitely doesn't seem as easy to dev for as your typical vanilla android phone.

IF you decide to swap out I would forget about the g2x. Wife had it and it was just bad. I'm sure the us will get the sgs 2 but you may want to have a look at the Hercules that is coming as well.

Also the theme rs
Fire under our asses you do realize most of us have jobs and real lifes We do this as a hobby spend quite a few hours doing this and days and weeks if not longer and dont even get paid for it.. You want development At least its not a side kick they got one rom.
The other phones u speak of are international versions minus the gx2 which has a larger dev community.
So please before you spout that kinda stuff look at whos deving for the phone you are using before you make comments like that thanks

Its called a G2X not gx2 and i own the phone and my girl has the sensation and I don't know about other g2x's but mine has no problems and the rom I'm running makes my phone so much better that the sensation or any other phone on ur minD .....!!!

Been a comp geek for a # of years and have recently began learning how to dev for android phones. I own the sgs4g and I absoluteabsolutely love it. I am fascinated by the outsoutstanding work the developers have produced on this phone thus far. I've read every post and have not ever had one problem flashing anything. I for one am extremely grateful for, not only the work put in, but also the vast knowledge that has been posted. These have become a shortcuts or fast tracks for me in learning how to develop and helping me to avoid some pitfalls that these guys have so gratuitously posted huge street sighns for us to read. Thanks guys.

I'd personally wait for the Galaxy S II. The performance is said to be greatly improved, and the reviews for it are beyond belief (meanwhile it isn't even in the US yet.)
The G2X does seem to have quite a few bugs, and the battery life is said to be even worse then the GS4G.
What I'd do is either switch to Verizon and get the Droid Charge, or wait for the Galaxy S II.
Again, I can wholeheartedly say the developers for this phone have done some hard work, and need some well-deserved praise.
Raver, he never meant his post to be rude or to insult developers like yourself in any way.

Geez dude, kinda on the sensitive side there. He said he respected you guys and meant no harm in his comment.
As for the OP's questions, the SGS2 is the obvious winner but who knows when it will come to the US. Sucks that even Canada is getting it first. If I were you, consider the Sensation. I like Samsung's hardware 10x better than HTC's but since you love development then I would chose that phone. CM7 is going to be awesome on there. And since it's HTC you will most likely get a plethora of AOSP ROM's, Sense ROM's and MIUI ROM's for you to constantly play with.
But anyways, I love the SGS4G, wish I owned one. But you're right, development will most likely be scarce for this phone for a while so that's something to think about.
Good luck!

Hercules all the way. I love my SGS4G.
My friend and my uncle and aunt all have the G2X and nothing but issues with it. Overheats and shuts down and have to pull the battery sometimes while charging. Random reboots. I had my friend flash Bionix on it and he was having a couple issues with it. It seemed to drain his battery much quicker than stock and had a couple other issues with it. He didn't want to try any other ROM for it cuz I told him Bionix should be the best one. I might flash my uncles G2X to see what the issues are again. My friend forgot what they were besides the battery drain and he used Green Battery & later Juice Defender and it didn't help. He still gets random reboots once in a while. Or won't power on from sleep/lock and have to pull the battery.
Thanks to all the devs support in our community and other communities as well. I'm a flashing fiend lol.

I couldn't recommend the sensation anymore than the g2x. It has just as many issues; some people are actually selling their sensation to go back to the g2x. Both are fast, both have issues, more development currently for the g2x. The sensation is a better looking phone though
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App

The Sensation is badass. Even with a locked bootloader and no development it's insanely fast once you replace the Sense UI.... etc. Higher resolution, better feel in your hand...blah blah blah. As far as picking a phone goes... just avoid anything that uses nVidia. If you do that you should be okay. I found it ammusing to hear of screen bleed and jittery displays... after their company's desktop video cards went through the same type of issues. haha. nVidia = FAIL
but again... i'm just a guy in the forums.

This is probably a stupid question but would it be possible to buy a Canadian GSII and then unlock it and use it on T-Mobile in the US

Yeah so far the speculation shows that each carrier will be getting a Samsung Galaxy S2 variant. The T-Mobile one hasn't come up and some ppl think it might be the Hercules but no one really knows (most people think the Hercules is similar to the Infuse because of screen size and processor)
I hope what I said was correct.

AlphRevX S-OFF video...

Not trying to be a kill-joy, but did anyone notice in the AlphaRev video, how the video went completely black between showing S-ON, S-OFF, and S-OFF AlphaRev? I'm just saying could it be possible that they just paused and swapped out an S-ON pyramid for an S-OFF, then ran AlphaRev on the S-OFF pyramid to get it AlphaRev S-OFF?

They are a higly reputable team. I think their reputation and fanbase means more to them than just getting the glory of S-off.

It's from his camera adjusting to the light from the phone. It's not fake.

alpharev has a very stong reputation behind them so I highly doubt they would put out a fake video.
In my opnion, and due to my line of work, the video changing from black background to light back ground is 100% caused by the apature of the camera adjusting to the amount of light coming from the screen and not fake.
If alpharev put this video out to stop other devs from working on s-off or to grab the glory of getting s-off.... first off if Alpharev doesnt produce pretty soon other devs will pick it back up in a heartbeat, and second... If alpharev pulled a stunt claiming to have S-OFF and didnt actually have it, I would think their devs would get black listed on EVERY andoid dev forum.

Relax dude, if it's fake then AlphRevX will loose their good reputation and will be out a business real fast, don't think that they would make such a stupid thing.
My faith in HTC in the other hand is blown away, they are really acting like they have no feeling with their costumers any longer.

You know what? That was actually what I was thinking before also. That maybe they wanted to just say they did to stop others from working on it. The "leaked" video kinda further promoted my beliefs because as they are very secretive about their work (as they should be, exploits are a very serious matter), i couldn't imagine someone uploading a video to youtube and not expecting anyone to see it. If they wanted to make a video for their own purposes to document it then they would have uploaded it somewhere else, not youtube. But then I did my research and looked at their unwavering fan base and their previous work. While i do doubt that the vid "leaked" I know they have s-off because I believe in their talents and respect their craft after seeing what they could do. They are perfecting thier programs as they have done in the past. Would be no fun if they'd release they tool and have that overshadowed by people complaining about bricked devices. if they didn't their future work would be devalued, No dev wants that over their head. Even though they don't owe us s-off in any sense, I do believe they do kinda owe us a tested program if they are going to make the tool public. Just apart of the moral code.

Although, Hype is Hype and a sales pitch that seemed to knock freedom out of the game for a week or so... I dont know anymore or trust much of anyones word these days.

Is out just me or did it seem like all new ROM building has stopped

Hey all just wanted to see if I was the only one noticing this, but there hasn't been a new ROM in a very long time...I keep on seeing the same ones pop up. Is it because of the SOPA scare? I know it wouldn't have an effect on devs BC of open source though... Hmmmmm kind of inspires me to build roms!

yeah it's true... :/
most of the devs are gone, moved on to newer devices...
i don't think SOPA had anything to do with this... development slowed down long before most of us even heard of SOPA.
yeah, the old ROMs keep coming up.. but new ones will come..
personally, my Team is working on a port right now, we're gonna try to release it ASAP

You have to see our phone came out in 2010Q4 and lifespan of it officially is 6-12months. This phone was never HD2-US (Leo1024) where community kept it life well beyond it should have and became the XDA's most defiant device.
When all the stars burns out in the universe and the darkness descend upon us. From far away in the galaxy out of no where a burst of light so strong that it could be seen from everywhere reaches us. As due to high radiation it will omit blue energy and it will be frozen like cryogenic. We the Collectors have foreseen and predicated its coming as it will fulfill prophecy for all ancient legacy devices. It is now known as CyanogenMod which will leave its strong footprint with CM7.2SR when all roms are stopped from being compiled.

Needless to say this phone has almost run it's course, it's powerful an capable of so much. But when team royal split, faux leaving,evil going mia an darkside leaving, that didn't leave us with much. We do have dev's like Feb,Gaza,bsbachert(if he is still around),eqjunkie an the team I'm on, trying to get this phone life support. It's hard but it's possible.
Other phones that been out longer then, I'll use the sensation an example, have better specs then us an is more widely known to mass's. That's why they have so much support. This phone is trying to be something it's not,a high class device to appeal to this mass. Ya our specs look like the DHD. Honestly if I saw this or the DHD next to each other when I bought this phone, well I wouldn't be typing this right now.
All I'm trying to say is, this phone is the messed up little kid that's trying to make up for all the bad things it's done.
If I helped, give thanks, if you please.

Edit:I think that's my longest post to date, lol.

DhD-EU came out before MT4G. As we know EU folks always get superior hardware before us in USA. So when Glacier came out it was the most powerful HTC GSM device in US market. After which CDMA Vz-TB came out as it was devised version of DhD-EU for US market.
Like you Mr High I also picked MT4G. I was aware of MT4G in end of July 2010 as didn't waste time trying to buy Desire Z/G2 as DhD while perfect replacement for HD2-US was not viable candidate for me in the USA due to network capabilities incompatible with TMobile's HSPA+. So I got MT4G few months before it was dropped to TMoUS or I had another choice to pick SamSUX Nexus S (which is another thread of its own don't even get me started).
For those of us who is welling to stay with MT4G they should know that it is actually powerful enough hell we got 2gs 1ghz proc with 768mb ram. If we don't see official CM9 we might see some KANG's. But not to worry we can still use official CM7.2SR as AOSP2.3.7GB itself is not that bad. So if anyone is welling to take the stand with GB with me then I will release the 42.3MB GB2.3.X enhancement package. Which is a super power boost for all AOSP based rom using AOSP2.3.5GB-AOSP2.3.7GB.

Quite honestly it happens to all the mytouch line. Take a look at the mytouch 3g and slide forum....you can hear the dust falling. It looked like it was gonna die here back at the beginning of the summer then eViL d dropped fusion and it seemed to pop back to life. It happens. I'm actually liking flashing older stuff. I'm sure it will get boring but I forgot how complete and fast some of the older roms can be. I'm running doubleshot now and its running smoother and more fluent than 3.5 roms on here and I didn't have to flash 4 different things to get it working properly. You tend to forget that these devs on here made stuff that actually works for our phone and not some multi device rom that never gets supported. I'm not speaking of Virtuous....lol!

I think the reason phones like the Galaxy S, or the Sensation, or even the DHD get so much support cause they're international devices, so devs all over the world can dev for those phones, unlike us here, who only have the US devs. Lol no one else even knows the existence of the HTC Glacier

I agree that things definitely have slowed down around here. Newer and better devices are coming out all the time though. But we do have some pretty sweet roms to pick from already though.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using xda premium

sure development has slowed down a bit, but we also have had some GREAT devs coming through here and working their magic. I mean just look at all the ROMS that are available to us...Froyo, Gingerbread, ICS, Sense, AOSP, MIUI...and with plenty of ROMS to fill each category(well except for ICS currently) I mean if you stop for a second, and really browse through the development section youll see awesome work. IMO, Id prefer a high quality rom that works in every way rather than always flashing the newest and greatest thing while dealing with all the bugs and what not. just my 2 cents on the whole thing...

Hello Nick and you know who this is we the illuminated ones have chosen you as one of few selected folks here who will be granted the GB2.3.X Enhancement Package (v1.0) so PM me for details. For other folks we need no beta testers as it has been developed for over 5+ months ago for private use but now going public due to ICS being imminent.

It seems like most of the work on roms is going into ICS and it's big changes. That combined with so many new awesome devices. Hell, I'm considering switching to a newer phone and I usually make mine last until they're obsolete.

There are no new ROMs in the wild besides crappy betas. No stable Sense + ICS, no similar devices with proper ICS. What development are you looking for? How many different versions of Sense 3, Sense 3.5, MIUI and half-baked ICS do you really need?
What is left - TouchWiz? Cross-device porting is a huge task, that requires tons of skills, and I wouldn't expect it to happen.
