One really has to wonder why. GB is old news. Why put developer's time and energy into updating something no one cares about? Focus on CM9!

Maybe because some phone supported by CM7 might not get ICS.
Good news for the nightlies.

This phone can run CM9 w/ no problems. Feb has proven that to us. It's going to go to a 4.0 Source code drop of this phone, or the DHD to get it before we see a stable build for it.

This is pretty exciting news imo. Any indication the CM team hasn't forgotten about our device, the better. I am curious about getting into the nightly routine but I have really liked using TDJs KANG when I use CM. Mostly because I almost always get better battery life on his kernels.
On that note, does anyone know where to download the Darkside X kernel he packaged with the 7.2 KANG? The kernel thread he links to only has 12 and 12.5. I can't find it in the my touch forums for the life of me. The only similarly named thing is in his new Samsung device forums but it clearly states in that thread that he compiled it from Samsung code so that can't be the same one he bundled with our KANG can it?
I supposed a more experienced user or amateur dev can extract the kernel from the KANG and make a flashable version so I can use it with the nightlies; but I would never ask for such a thing.........

I think they didn't want to just throw away CM 7.2 before jumping into CM 9. Plus there are certain things that don't work, such as the camera, that I don't think the CM team would push out a build without things like that working at all. I doubt we'll see a stable release before HTC drops any ICS source code.

Nope, nothing resembling a kernel named Darkside X for glacier. Doesn't seem like anything on there was updated in the past 2 months though.
There are 3 possibilities I see as to an explanation.
1 - the kernel is 12.5 with almost nothing different. Enough to warrant a different version title but not enough to establish hosting it as it's own new thing.
2 - it's the Samsung kernel and it's compatible with the mytouch (doesn't seem likely but his kernels have magically been cross-compatible before [g2] so who knows).
3 - it's a current version but mislabeled. That seems so unlikely from what I know of this dev that I won't even entertain such an idea.
I haven't noticed a world of a difference from this "darkside x" kernel versus the kind of performance I got on the 12.5 so I will just pretend the darkside x is some anomaly and be more than happy with using 12.5.

CM9 is way to far from a lot of devices, only devices getting official nightlys are the nexus phones (crespo, toro and the new galaxy nexus ) thats why they are developing cm7, cyanogenmod needs to re-write all the code becuse google makes a lot of changes in ICS

THANK You !!! Good to know MT4g is still getting support.

[Q] Is it wise to wait for stable cyanogen mod

Hi,
I've searched but I didn't find this.
I've read that some phones never get a full "stable" release of cyanogen. I am currently running masters voodoo rooted rom but I quite fancy CM. Does it look like there will be a stable version, and does anyone have any idea how far in the future that might be.
Or is the current RC solid as a rock right now, or does it have bugs.
Thanks
Nexus S is a CM officially supported phone, it will certainly get CM7 final. I've been running CM7 RC1 since the day after I got my phone a bit more than a week ago, so far it works quite well and stable.

Thanks for your reply. I'll hang on then. I'd prefer to get the stable version. Any idea how long they think it will take. I've been on cm forum googling, but not getting anywhere.

Rule 1 of CM: Don't ask for ETAs.
Build #11 and above of nightlies are based on Android 2.3.3.
#12 probably seems the most stable. I'm using #13 and its fine for me although people have reported problems.
If you want pure stableness, it'd be RC1 but it is on 2.3.2

RC1 is just a nightly that was the line where they thought it was stable enough to promote. I don't think it's any more or less stable than any other nightly.

I had a lot of problems with CM7, but I was running Honity, as well. My experience was one of instability. I switched over to Axura and like it a lot.

I tried Axura last night and didn't like it at all. Also tried cm7 nightly 14 and I wasn't keen on it either. So far I haven't seen anything I like better than masters deodexed 2.3.3, so I'm back on that.

Just out of curiousity, what didn't you like about Axura?
On a more related note, as a flashaholic I've flashed every ROM available for the Nexus S and CM7 is the one I use as my Daily Driver. I'm on RC2 and can't remember the last time I had a random reboot. The other ROMs I have NANDroids of to be able to go between are Stock 2.3.3, Axura, and MIUI (I'm waiting for it to become a little more fleshed out before I really give it a go as a daily driver).

I thought Axura was nice and quick. The thing that made me remove it was the font believe it or not. It looks good in the menus but it was bad for reading emails and other small text.

Did you try flashing a different font or using font changer for root on the market? If that was really your only complaint you can very easily change such things.

I didn't know about either of the options you mentioned and I might just try them. I have no idea where you get fonts to flash, or what format they need to be in, and do you flash them the same way you flash everything else??

[Q] New to Nexus S, any ROM recommendations

Just got a used Nexus S (i9020t) coming from a Vibrant. The number of AOSP based ROMS over here is very refreshing. Anyone have a recommendation for a 2.3.5 ROM that is stable, easy on battery, and fast? (Hey, I want all three). I've been running cm7 on my Vibrant, so I'm familiar with that. Is the last nightly stable? What about the Kanged versions? Should I be swapping out kernels?
Basically I'm looking for a solid ROM that I won't have to (or want to) mess with for a while. Thanks for any suggestions.

Try a CyanogenMod 7 kang from Simms22 (you can get them on the CM7 Nightly thread): http://fitsnugly.euroskank.com/gigg...cm-7.1.0-RC1-NS-KANG-signed.09142011-0558.zip
Flash the Google Apps package: http://goo-inside.me/gapps/gapps-gb-20110729-signed.zip
Use the Trinity TUV kernel (it's broken at the moment, use this build from the 11th): http://morfic.euroskank.com/NS/TUV-Any-NS+4G-11092011.zip
CM7 is just... amazing. Use this for speed and very good battery.
I would recommend cm7 miui and Peter Alfonso. All very good roms. In my opinion Pete's rom has the best battery life but try them all and see what u like best. What works good for me may not work for u lol. Just try all the roms people on here said and see what works best for u

Im using CM7 ...but it is very disspointing me because of the battery..
just last for 10 hours..
I've been running Formels MIUI, it's on the devs forum here on the Nexus S, it seems to be stable compared to the stock MIUI and battery is better.
Still, I'm also looking for a Rom that improves the camera, recording still isn't as good as I wanted and sometimes I get the random freeze&reboot....

Pure AOSP or CM9 with HTC kernel source?

Since HTC has just dropped the 3.0 kernel source for the Sensation, is anyone working on a pure AOSP ROM? Not a de-Sensed ROM based off the One S leak, or a CM9 build with drivers hacked in from somewhere, but a real built-from-source ROM.
I'm thinking of taking a crack at building one, but I didn't want to duplicate someone else's efforts.

Sorry, yeah, I forgot about OpenSensation. I might clone the repo and play with the new kernel anyway, just for kicks. I haven't really tried to build Android from scratch before, but I'm a pretty good C/C++/C# programmer, so it might be fun to try.

AOKP
For the record I'd like to say that there is also AOKP, which builds on OpenSensation, which builds on CM9 repos, as far as I can gather.
I'm currently running b31 (b32 came out 2012-04-16) and most everything works. There are a couple of features missing from b31 that I used on CM7.1 Alpha, (like Quiet Hours), but they appear to have been added in b32.
If you're looking for something AOSP, my suggestion would be AOKP.
They pack Nova Launcher as an alternative to the stock launcher, but I uninstalled both and went with APEX, which IMHO beats both on customizability and unintrusive interface. YMMV however...

[Q] miui rom for p6200?

hi there..
just a noob question, will there be a miui roms for tab 7+ P6200? since i thought those roms are awesome..
Heeeeeeeeee hehe it should be AMAZING you're right I personally guess it shouldn't be too hard to build, but we have few devs right now and aorth is already working on the CM9 which supposed to be wonderful too.
I read once talking about the P6200 MIUI in its Italian channel on nexuslab but I think we're still far away from it
Let's hope dude I'd just like it too on my own p6200

In order to properly have MIUI, we must have CM9 first. Why? MIUI is based off of CM.
That being said, once we have CM9 fully (or close to) being a Daily Driver, someone can easily port over MIUI using a lot of the CM9 components and merging them with MIUI bits.
Atleast that's how it happened on my Epic 4G

CM and MIUI are both AOSP ROMs and you need an AOSP kernel in order to get them to work properly. You could get it ported over right now but nothing would work, same as with the CM9 builds we already have, so really I see no point in doing it except as a proof of concept or work in progress type ROM. The few devs we have are all working hard on CM9 but it's slow going without having all the needed hardware drivers that Samsung won't release. Once that is done MIUI won't be far behind.
we have very few developers for now, and there are some major issues such as the wireless.. until that issues are resolved, i don't think we want to split tasks or add more task for the developers. We need at least one working custom kernel first for use as a basis. That is a much higher priority now.

Have you tried the CM9 ROM in development or the AOKP ROM over on Rootzwiki? They are both functional enough to be used as a daily driver.
Why do we need S-off? We can already do basically everything through recovery without it. Would it be nice to have, sure I guess, but definitely not needed.
Kernel source will be released. Could be soon, could be September. We don't know when. But it will be released. Once it is available we will have answers.

yea s-off isn't needed, but nice to have.
i've been following the cm9 thread, and it seems great but ive been using my camcorder almost non-stop and i'll miss it for sure
I saw on one of the threads for either MIUI or CM9 but I don't remember which that someone got the camcorder working? I have the file in my download folder on my phone but I haven't tried it yet. I'm just keeping it for if and when I decide to try out MIUI or CM9.
I loaded an unofficial CM9 Alpha 5 ROM on my North American HTC One X and the camera worked, although nowhere near as good as the camera app in the stock HOX software. Camcoder was flaky and crashed periodically. A video I posted on YouTube circa 4:50 has a demo of it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XPi8a5SvJvQ.
If interested, the build I loaded was the alpha5 in the thread "[ROM][WIP] Unofficial CM9 Port - Alpha 5" http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1688448. Beware of rapid battery drain if you choose to load this alpha5 build I recommend taking 30 minutes and reading through the thread prior to flashing this ROM for details.
Note, however, that this ROM is based off Android 4.0.4 (Ice Cream Sandwich), not 4.1 (Jelly Bean), so this discussion might be a little off topic for this thread
