Opened up a CyanogenMod 9 discussion thread To talk about it.
What would you like to see? What features do you like (from alpha versions or the Nexus S version)? And the big question on everyone's mind: When do you think it will be released?
Discuss.

He's not, he's asking to speculate. Or is that not allowed either?
I personally can't wait for CM9. I'm running Virtuous Quattro on my Desire HD at the moment, but was on CM7.1 for a long time before that. Hoping it will see the light of day before the end of Feb, but I have no idea how optimistic that might be!
An integrated contacts app that allows you to go to contacts and start typing a name and it will automatically search without hitting the search button would be nice.
I have 450+ contacts and it's a pain in the a$$ to scroll through and almost always have to manually search.
IDK if this already a feature but also like to see the camera unlock be integrated to use either front or back cameras for facial recognition.
CM9 seems pretty legit for me... we have a port for the captivate and it runs amazing ....having ICS on older devices is pretty awesome ....whatever CM brings to the table is always good stable and fast
I'm running a pure AOSP port of the galaxy nexus at the moment and I have no issues what's so ever...
Just hope your device has the right devs and anything is possible

Moore's Law is now biting us in the rear.
The blog post on the CM site pretty reinforced what I thought was happening and why development has been a bit slow. 4.0 was designed to be very different from 2.x, but I am sure that the team will knock out some stable releases soon enough.

i have been wondering if any work has been done porting aosp to the desire s or if anyone could point me to the proper tutorials on how to do it, though i will have little time to work on it during the next 3 months or so.

it would indeed seem that way. just pulled the cm sources to see if adding a new device wasn't too hard a task and it seems there already has been some work done towards porting it to the saga (aka desire s). finally some good news
Hope the port for Saga comes soon. Really look forward to getting rid of Sense.

NexuS has pretty same hardware. Even better cam..
I sold NexuS because I missed some of the sense things:
the stock dialer has NO t9 search - most dialer from market are crap or slow or somehow frickled on the stock dialer. Even old nokia do have a quick search option...
Stock contacts are ugly.
GAL (global adress list for exchange server) is NOT implemented in android 2.x - only in 3.0; but it's implemented since sense1 (hero)
CM had some issues - espacially with the notification bar/speed settings - on 2.3 - the new sense 3.0 lockscreen and notification bar are very good - so no need for CM at the moment - for _me_
So I deleted most of sense.apk from /system on my DesireS (all widgets, all "htc", like route66, amazon, stockexchange..) and do use adw-launcher instead of rosie (don't delete it cause is needed for lockscreen settings!) - but do have integrated company exchange and a good biult in dialer, cool contacts (with flickr and fb content) and nice lockscreen..

Sense is THE BEST ANDROID UI, EVAR. Don't know why people wanna "DE-SENSE" their phones. I'm gonna flash CM7 to see what the fuss is about , but sense 3.0 first Hopefully, the new official version of CM7 will come for DS too. I'd rather let the ports pass on...........

There's plenty of HTC phones out there that are running custom ROMs and customised user interfaces that don't rely on Sense. It may be the "out of the box experience" as far as most HTC phones are concerned, but isn't that what all THIS (ie these forums) is about - customisations, and thinking "out of the box"? (no pun intended, haha).
If we all concentrated on Sense and variations on that theme then this community would be a much poorer one.
Peace
sense ftw!
Well, i love sense, but i am porting the cm7 just so people have the choose, and also to make the development on this device more alive
But personally, Sense is the thing!
Please keep all comments relevant to development status, beta testing, and resolving issues compiling I.C.S to avoid closure of thread.
This way if you are not developing you can read to keep up-to-date.
P.s: thank you to all our wonderdul devs working night and day to get us a stable build!

that's the ICS port's name that cannot be spoken about here
it's like Sauron's ROM or something
I wont post a link to the page, but looking at Kmobs Google+, he posted a few pictures comparing his Sensation and Galaxy Nexus.
-In one picture he shows the 'about phone' screen on both phones. On Sensation, it looks like there is a color gradient, however its hard to tell. So MAYBE they have hardware acceleration working.
-Also if you read the 'mod version' it says CyanogenMod-9.0.0-RC0-Sensation-KANG. I'm a noob and Im not sure if the mod version will tell anything, but it says RC0 so maybe its Release Candidate status?
-One last thing I noticed is he has the same widget running when he compares homescreen, so he is kind or mirroring the two, but the Galaxy Nexus has the camera shortcut on the homescreen and Sensation does not. Not sure if that means its not working on Sensation, or if he just didnt put it there
Mods: if I posted anything I shouldnt have, please feel free to delete the post and contact me. Im familiar to the rules for the most part.

lol. should compare date released and prices for devices. the longer the date the device was released and the cheaper price it is, it should have many devs and support for it. as our devices is quite new (not that new lol) but its like a decisive thing for devs really, if they want to get the sensation and create ports there or just go to the newest device there is on the market. but needless to say, we have plenty of devs here. its just a matter of enjoying whats there and being patient. so, stay on and relax

Sadly, but true....
We have a good collection of roms though, and we will be getting ICS regardless from HTC. I don't mind if devs jump ship.
Yeah, TripNiCE ROM is now Alpha 7.5, quite perfect and very stable.
It seems that we could have a stable release (or two if CM9/Kang release something too) till Christmas !

just buy yourself an iPhone.
Not being mean just kind of seems like a waste of effort cause miui is so similar its really about down to theming really. Plus Android is greater than iOS. And I like when people ask why my iPhone looks different and I can say cause its not an iPhone its got the majority of the looks but more functionality more open apps less corporate control over everything. So taking dev work from other more different projects just seems a little silly to me.

For me, Yes, just post it if you have time because it is interesting and yes, you support it or not up to your decision ^^ (since as I see, you should focus on MiUI or sth bigger cause Lewa or JoyOS or maybe MookOS is somehow alike MiUI in appearance but not very cool as MiUI in themes, Chinese team support and part of ui as Lewa I feel is a little not as smooth as your MiUI)

But one thing I should let everyone know is that based on cm just means boot.img and some libs the frames and apps n rest of the rom is JoyOS that's why my rom doesn't have reboot to recovery working eventhough cm does.

but we have a good head start with the unofficial rom, hope they are aware of that.

That's the way MIUI has been doing all their official v4 releases. It's called patchrom. By doing it that way, they don't have to really on there being a developed aosp base, which can help the roms be released sooner. Downside is the zips are like double the size, and it's not an aosp ROM anymore

From HTC, i don't think so.. even if it would take 24 hours work to put it on our device, they won't do it
But from nk & nexx, i'm pretty sure we'll get it no questions asked, once we get our kernel sources, that is
I think the 3.0 kernel would work allright since i don't really think there are many driver-related changes, so that would work, but i'm not sure as the "project butter" thingy has some stuff goin' under the hood, so i'm not sure ;~;
HTC so far have announced they are "planning to support it across a variety of our devices". We'll have to wait for the inevitable announcements.

No way.
There'll be no Official Jelly Bean for Desire S.
As for ICS, HTC already made it clear they are doing customer a big favor in deploying the update.
And that we, the customer, are supposed to be thankful for them and not whining/complaining when the ICS update is pushed off to as late as possible.
Unless DS is lucky like DHD which luckily made it through from 2.2 to 4.0

Are you serious? Apple is as bad, if not worse, at fragmenting their products - and they've got no excuse for it. This is the same company that is rolling out the new Maps software, but only for the iPhone 4S, not for the iPhone 4 - there is only one reason for that, and that's to force people to upgrade.

Agree, the only difference is Apple is pretending to ship the same software to all devices, because they all got the same version number, what's even worse for my opinion than just clearly saying, you won't get it.
Additionally it's also to trick statistics, because that way it looks like there is no fragmentation, what is indeed good marketing, but pretty bad in human terms.
About jelly bean for the ds, it sure will come, but I don't think official, "only" one s/v ports (or other devices) and for sure cm and aokp.

Okay let's start:
At first haven't noticed any bugs with this ROM. Also the system is way smoother compared to 4.0.4 ICS and many things that have annoyed me in 4.0.4 have been fixed.
Biggest differences between ICS and JB:

Questions:
Is google now english only? :
- No. I just asked a few questions in german. It gave me search results but I it just list sites with the answers. No knowledge graph in german. But it shows me my weather and my route to work with tiles
What happens if you enable/disable WiFi Direct for 5-10 times in a row? In ICS, after a couple of times toggling WiFi Direct the wifi driver crashed and I needed a reboot in order to make WiFi and WiFi Direct work again:
- Sorry I don't have another Wifi-Direct device to test this feature at this time.

Are you serious? Apple is as bad, if not worse, at fragmenting their products - and they've got no excuse for it. This is the same company that is rolling out the new Maps software, but only for the iPhone 4S, not for the iPhone 4 - there is only one reason for that, and that's to force people to upgrade.

new maps isnt really a big priority for everyone i meant more in the sense that they continued to give support to the iphone 4 in terms of new ios where as we get ics without sense 4 etc.. our product life cycle is jsut naturally shorter as there is more competition, sometimes I and alot of people probably forget while we may want a cheap cost-effective deal, for them it's a business.

you're joking right? So they've worked on ICS for months and it's still buggy and you thought that if they drop that and work on JB there won't be any bugs?.. boy o boy

True. But you don't have the right to slag of devs work and call it 'laggy' when you didn't even do anything in the development.

I have tried many ICS roms for the Desire S, and i can tell you not a single one is laggy, unless of course you are talking about Sense 4 ROMs.. but those ROMs are also very smooth, and I can really say that they are laggy..
my only complain is the incorrect inversion of FFC in AOKP/CM9.. but that is HTC's fault.. not the developers.. If you need ICS ROMs for daily driver, I can strongly recommend you IceColdSandwich 8.2 or if you need Sense 4 on top of it, take Fallout 4.4.0.. But if you think thatthose are still laggy, then probably you should get yourself a One X or SGS3.. or maybe iPhone 4S..
