I have the utmost respect for the developers. I understand that this isn't a popular phone, so any new rom is a blessing.

I had a feeling those guys would be more willing to come back once a finalized version of GB was released. It had to be frustrating when we were getting leaks every couple of weeks or so to try to stay current.

I welcome any new ROMs, but I heard talks that Kejar was going to work with the CM team to port CM7.. What happened to that =[ ?
I'm mainly interested in the fact that Wiimote apps work on CM7

HA! I know. I thought about that before I posted too, but they have source now. I think it'll actually happen now.

kernel source means nothing to anyone but imoseyen amongst gummycharged/liberty and he doesnt just make kernels for them, he posts them for all
id imagine liberty for the charge will just be updated gummy stuff because a lot of what is in liberty is for moto phones...will there be new stuff? sure...but it wont be identical

Thanks. I haven't followed what's been going on with Liberty and am still using Gummy FE. I think my phone runs great and I really like Voodoo Sound while playing Pandora in the car. I don't want to upgrade to GB until IMoseyOn has a nicely developed GB kernel, based on source. After that, the ROMs will fall in line. That's my thought at least.
Since I'm happy with Gummy FE, I assume that Liberty will be my go-to ROM. Having said that, I have no experience with Humble or Infinity, but I've heard good things about both. In the end, I use DroidBlaze's MinimalGummy theme and really like it. I'll probably wind up on Liberty since he's only been creating themes for Gummy and hasn't themed for Humble or Infinity (to my knowledge).

What is this Motorola crap you're talking about? Blur related?

Blur is the style of framework Motorola used for their phone. As far as I know. Liberty would be sweet. It was great on the X.

Hell, fing yea. Those of you who don't know this team. They developed for the vibrant and it was the ****. Only rom id run....?..

Hey. I'll admit, I complained. I mean he'll the Sgs2 just came out and they have 1.5 oc already and a bunch of others, but this makes me a lot less worried cause I choose this over CM or anyone..
I'm stoked I loved TW when I had my vibrant!!! Now hopefully faux will get his g2x bc I also loved his work. Development for this phone is looking up =D

Different phone, different developement. Cant make that comparison. We have 2 OC kernels, CM7 nightlies, and AOSP builds in the works. Strong development doesnt come over night. I dont understand why people expect our dev section to look like the Galaxy i9000 in a matter of weeks

Let's not turn this into a complaining thread. I'm excited to see team whiskey. This ain't anything else other than a heads up. Word
This is kinda freaky, and I'm being completely serious about this. Last night I had a dream that teamwhiskey got a g2x and they were gonna release a new rom soon (Yes, I'm a complete dork who dreams about android development lol)
I dont even know who team whiskey is, I've just seen the name by glancing at the vibrant forums when I had my epic.
Don't worry I haven't had any dreams about 2012 yet so we are good for now

Did they have all the fancy stuff CM has or what? I mean I'm a CM fan coming from the N1 so I don't know the difference and since there is a thread here, it is a good place to ask.
Or was it awesome because of speed? mods?

JT just indicated that aside from the radio, he thinks the Charge is very similar to the Fascinate (on twitter).
I'd be willing to donating towards JT getting a charge. The work he did on getting CM7 on the Fascinate has been amazing.

+1. I'm nearly broke and didn't get a chance to donate to JT when I had a fascinate, but I'd toss in some beer money if he helps bring AOSP to the Charge.
It really does feel identical to the fascinate except for the 4G.
I seriously feel like I still have my old phone.

JT has stated adamantly that he doesn't want a Charge, plus he's busy with his Thunderbolt roms and Fascinate AOSP work afaik... however r2doesinc and t3h4xx0r are working on porting OMGB as previously mentioned
I definitely can't wait for AOSP to come to the Charge. I loved CM7 on my Fascinate. We will have it at some point, we may just have to be patient like we had to be with the Fascinate. It took us forever just to get Froyo.
I would also love to see aosp roms and would be willing to donte as well.

Your best hope is the omgb guys but it will be extremely slow going I'd imagine
My bet would be the.sgs2 and HTC vigor launching before semi functional aosp comes out
Not to be a troll or killjoy just being pragmatic

CM7 now booting on the Charge!!!

The first thing I did (still in the store) was install Launcher Pro. Hoping they put a better skin on the officialVerizon Gingerbread release, or I'm sticking to Launcher Pro. I'd rather not since the phone seems to have very little available memory out of the 512MB RAM, which seems odd to me...
I'm fairly new to the custom ROMs and I apologize for the newbie question. What makes CM7 the ROM to have?

It's the purest form of android, free from any carrier/oem crap (except for necessary google apps like market obviously)... this also makes it a stable, fast, and 'lightweight' rom which means less system usage for the rom, custom kernels specifically for your phone, and more options and speed/audio/video/theme tweaks than you can shake a stick at lol
also once its finished and more or less all the bugs are worked out, devs can submit it to CyanogenMod to merge it in the mainline CM 'tree' so the coding bots can get to work cranking out nightlies (nightly rom updates)

The purest forum of Android is Vanilla AOSP. CM7 is desirable as it has a lot of unique customizations that improve usability and functionality, without adding a bunch of useless crap (though there are still features people won't use).

CM7 is essentially AOSP with some additional features and UI enhancements and whatnot, but at it's core it's AOSP from what i know. same with OMFG/OMFGB.
any of those will run much much faster than any Touchwiz based RFS kernel/rom no matter how many superchargers and lagfixes you put on it

If you want MIUI you will have to buy a phone that already has it available.
Until the Chinese Devs support it, it most likely will not happen.

Any news on ROMs??

Has anyone heard anything about Liberty coming to our phones or whatever happened with Darkcharge? I know team gummy joined up with the liberty guys to bring liberty to our phones but haven't heard anything else about it. I can only assume that Darkcharge is no longer continuing development for us since it seemed to get bashed (for a lack of better words) upon release.

imnuts is working hard on Infinity, but he's somewhat of a perfectionist *and* he's having to redo his work on EP4, so it's slow to release. If you hang out in IRC, he apparently posts links to the latest beta build occasionally, though he forbids those builds from being distributed any father.

personally im not upgrading soon (cant justify 300 bucks around the holidays)...but probably whatever big sammy/htc phone drops in late q1 or so
i *think* sbrissen, imnuts, and omj will get gnexus's though
That's the biggest peeve I have with phones today. A new phone drops, gets worlds of praise for 3 weeks (figuratively of course...or not?) And then something new gets released. It almost seems like the term "flagship" doesn't apply to smartphones.
