Question about CM7 - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

Just curious why we got so close CM7 with kernel and all and cyanogenmod won't accept it as an official build. I know they look for a solid base but it seemed pretty solid or close enough for me. Anyone have some inside knowledge?

Because Cyanogenmod him self and the team is working on cm9 they have left cm7 for now and won't work on it.

Could we at least get a 3g only port, from maybe the inc2 since they are somewhat similar as far as processors, etc? I'd hit thanks all day and maybe dig in my bank account for a donation.

The Liquid Dev I spoke to said the Liquid Team is working on the radio issues.
I'm a big fan of Liquid ROMs, so hopefully they overcome the issue quickly,
but good work takes time and Liquid Smooth 3.2 has been an awesome ROM
to run while I/We wait..
+1 on liquid 3.2

Ill take anything with data about now but Liquid and Twisted are my Rom's of choice when they come out.
twisted is my choice, he keeps it updated about everyday.
The good news is that it seems there is a rom with working data coming soon.
The 'bad' news is that it seems to be liquids rom.
Hopefully twisted can borrow it since his version works best for my phone.
if they sort the data out does that mean we hopefully will get ICS , miuiV4 and oakp(kang one protekk built) working possibly?
I hope twisted gdts it. I personally cant afford to buy(donate) just for the opprotunity to use a rom. With the wife out of work, supporting 2 kids, and the economy, every penny i already earn is accounted for. Things are very hard for us right now.

Damn dude, was that a shot at Liquid or what? Sure sounded like it. Liquid aosp are far and away better than any other aosp out there.

agreed. everybody has an opinion. If a dev cant take a shot, then they dont need to be deving. I personally have been back on the OG Rom rooted and deodexed for a few months now. I just got tired of ROMs with stuff not working.
Props to all the devs for what they do, but partially working ROMs just dont cut it for me. So I have been back on the OG rom for a few months now and very glad I did.

Good news for me about the liquid rom, I have been using v3.2 for a few weeks now with no problems, and am excited for an ICS version . . .
I am coming from the mr2 (ril?) version of froyo, which I've been using since the summer . . .
I'll have to check out the others mentioned in this thread if I run into problems

I used OMFGB for a long time. Recently though, I've changed to Thundershed and couldn't be happier. A lot of the same stuff, but with some newer enhancements and updates (OMFGB, for example, doesn't even have the locations fix built in as it hasn't been updated in...well, this year, maybe).

[Q] CM7

CM7 would rock on this device but all kernels and builds are old. is anyone still working on cm7?
I haven't seen anything new with cm7 except cyanotouchwiz. Dayum shame
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
Someone more knowledgeable than me will likely chime in, but my understanding is that work on CM7 has halted since CM9 will be coming soon (devs are waiting for source to drop).
i think anyone would love to get cm7 or aosp but we will probably never see an official build from the cyanogenmod team. I am hoping they churn out a cm9 for our skyrocket soon, but i know they are having some delays and it will be after it is released by samsung for our device. hopefully by then xboarder and some other devs will have a working ics build
The guy working on it got all pissy, didn't share his work and left... so there went cm7. Gonna be the same with x boarder i think. He isn't a team player so if a person pisses him off, it is bye bye time. If you even mention x boarder that thread gets closed... lol

Linaro enhancements

Is anyone looking at the work Linaro has done to see if it can be used to improve the performance of our Transformer builds?

I know that people from CyanogenMod have implemented it in some builds, I think to galaxy nexus. Anyway, don´t know if they are going to use it in every cm9 build.

I haven't tried it on my gnex, but its not building "perfectly" right now. The early work they have on the gnex hasn't ironed everything out, certain things aren't building right because linaro builds using some different things. I know the gps issues still haven't been ironed out. But a lot the code is submitted to cm, it's there and its being reviewed. I'm sure it'll eventually get down to us!
Aokp has a linaro build out for galaxy Nexus.

I'm excited about it. I'm flashing a liquid tester for my gnex right now. I guess it really improved the thunderbolt rom

I have heard mixed things about everything working (gps not locking well iirc?) and I think they're using gcc 4.6 for now. It sounds like a part of the code is in merged but I dunno if its too early to expect much improvement just yet. I'm eager to see this though, gnex is already quick and smooth as it is.
EDIT: nm, sounds like they've got GPS working. They're moving quick!
AOKP will have it soon. Just don't expect 100% improvements, that's only for some synthetic benchmarks.
Liquid Smooth ROM 1.5RC has -03 optimized Linaro components. It is blazing fast and everything works well, including GPS/Navigation.

Go to #liquids on IRC for further information.
Gummy rom have a build with Linaro, I am testing it right now. It seems fast but not something awesome. I scored in quadrant much less than in Megatron so I think I am gonna revert to Megatron.

If talking about liquid, I'm pretty sure we'll have to wait till final. Who knows tho they could open them up on irc whenever. Final will probably be soon tho.

Another custom ROM on it's way.

Check out this post from the XDA portal.
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/affinityseries-jelly-bean-rom-lands-on-multiple-devices/
It's about a custom ROM calles AffinitySERIES.
And they say that they plan to release a build for the Infinity.
Woohoo some more love for our beast.

Are you volunteering to try it out first?
The Affinity guys are legit. I have a vzw gnex and am actually about to install their build on it, which reviews are calling one of the stablest and fastest roms on the gnex right now.....even in first build form. I hear they are really professionals at what they do. I would bite first
Sweet, i know its just a matter of time till we get more devs and options for our infinitys

Not with the TF700. I'm to afraid of bricking that bastard.

I am the one on the team that will be working on the porting, like I said so far I have JB booting nicely, Wifi, camera works, I really just need to fix audio and BT, but TF700 dev is on the backburner since we want to complete features before we start porting to TF700.

There's maybe soon some progress.
It looks like it's quite easy to port from the TF300 to the TF700 and maybe even from the TF201.

Something I noticed about CyMod and its forums

Something I wanted to point out - I visited CyanogenMod forums the other day, and they have a dedicated section towards unofficial builds for phones that they don't officially develop for, and one of the posts was Liquid's ICS, and no one seemed to have an issue with it... in fact no one really said much besides that they liked it.
So let me ask you this... all this stuff about people getting upset because Liquid uses CyMod features as a base for features in his releases - don't you think that if anyone up at CM had an issue with it, they'd say explicitly that they have an issue with a dedicated developer making a build for a phone that isn't supported officially by CM?
Just a thought.
The cm team is aware of devs kanging their work to hell and back. By now I'm sure they don't care as often as it happens.

huh? cm is open source. As long as they're credited they're fine with it.

As great as Rootz is, I don't really have much reason to go back there. I had my fun, had some good times, bad times, and well, learned what I could, now I'm just moving on. But lets not get into that.
