this is what I'm talking about... real rom support for the epic.
we have such amazing devs who put some amazing things (looking at you acs, nova, marcusant, and many others), but in the end, it's all either trying to be aosp or just modding what we already have. if this can help the CM7 team, or the guys working on miui, then we can really have some fun with the roms.
I love this phone and am happy to see it not get lost in the shuffle

agreed. my point was that it'll be good for us to get some more devs behind CM7 and MIUI. Sure, that just means they'll be a million variations of those, but then we'll have them. right now your options are touchwiz or as close to aosp as possible, but still with touchwiz framework. CM alone will open the doors

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
cm-nightlies.appspot.com/?device=glacier
THANK You !!! Good to know MT4g is still getting support.
Hi everybody,
We all know our phones CM9 development is soon gonna be complete(?) AS FAR AS kernel 2.xx CAN ALLOW... So the question that everyones asking is this " When will Dhiru start compiling CM 10 ?? "
I OPENED THIS THREAD TO ASK YOU THIS :
SHOULD WE GO FOR CM7 OR CM10 ??
This question arose when my brother wanted to take an android.. He asked bout SL.. Even though i love my SL i had to suggest s2 bcoz it has stable aosp rom support.. Our fone, well, right now belongs to the low development area... Development is at starting to get low... No custom roms, no themes and lot of incomplete aosp roms...
If we go for CM7 dvelopment, i am hopeful that we'll hav atleast a 100% stable AOSP rom.. Even though it might be ancient in the current scenario, we'll get a lightning quick rom that will just fly on our fone..
And well, a stable CM7 will lead to a stable MIUI... Ppl can work on things with a stable AOSP base...
I know its for Dhiru to decide.. Wanted to know what the community is thinking...

CM9 is already more stable than CM7.
BEFORE ANY NOOBS STARTS FLAGGING ON ME, MIND THAT I'VE BEEN HERE FROM THE BEGINNING OF THIS COMMUNITY..
I KNOW I CANT FORCE DHIRU INTO DEVELOPING ANYTHING..
AND THAT THIS IS JUST TO KNOW WHAT THE COMMUNITY THINKS...

Why would he do that? That's like saying that Froyo should be developed for the S3.
Dhiru is going to fix everything with the help of everyone in this community (devs and testers). I truly believe that. He doesn't need to do it (he has 2 other phones) so he does it for the pleasure of the challenge. Kernel 2.x.x isn't a limitation and kernel 3.x.x isn't aborted. The way things are going, I imagine that CM9 will be out of alpha with everything working very soon. That'll be when the tweaking and mods flood in. CM10 will be just a few ports away.
I say leave CM7 where it should be. History. Sorry to be a buzz kill, but CM7 is for devices that really can't handle ICS and the i9003 can.
Also CM10 won't need many changes anyways, a working CM9 will probably result in a working CM10.
So nope, CM10 won't be an incomplete ROM, basically CM9 Bugs = CM10 Bugs, i am with improving CM9 and CM10 at the same time, and leaving CM7 laaater on.
I agree with sam too, CM7 is outdated.
@samisax
Wonderful answer, that!!n a good argument too...i agree one hundred percent that cm7 should be written off as history.dhiru will soon give us a stable cm9 AND Cm10 i m sure
I agree on what samisax says, if this phone can run cm10, there is no reason to go backwards.

As i said in the OP, outdated may be, but something which can be made 100% stable by a developer such as dhiru in a very short time(comparitively)... Something which can be used as a TRUE daily driver..
As dhiru and othr developers say ther are many things in cm9 & cm10, which can only be fixed when kernel 3.xx comes out.. Ad dt get me wrong, i know our fone can handle ICS perfectly... But it'll take tym.. Till the time comes, cant we hav cm7??
i think it is a bad idea to make cm7 stable, because a single step on working cm7, will lead to delay stable cm9...
i hope dhiru can finish developing cm9 soon.
we must settle for cm9 first and then cm10 can be developed by some good guys
thanks dhiru for cm9 even it is not finished yet. it is good to see my phones capabilities.
After done flasing ICS, what did u mod ur device? Use custom rom? Custom kernel? Add tweaks?? Change theme?? Omg, my brain will dead using this tab plus..im rooted, CWM installed..just that..share ur experience here...already tried cm9 and cm10, hav bugs..do we only hav cm9 and cm10?? i prefer stock rom..is there custom rom based on stock?

I'm in the same boat as you. My wife rooted her T869, and installed clockworkmod and wanted the QuickPanel mod, CRT tv animation, and custom boot animation, that she has on her T989, and when she found out that she couldn't because her rom was odexed, she flashed CM10, and while it did have some of the mods she wanted, it lacked the things she liked about the stock ROM such as the mini apps tray, the music player, and the task manager in the system settings.
She has also noticed that the font is way too small for her status bar, but overall, she misses the look and feel from the stock ICS rom. She just wants something that is exactly like the Darkside Evolution ICS 4.0.4 ROM that she has on her T989. It is based on the stock ICS ROM, but has the tweaks she wants and she has the customization options as well.
I have searched and asked if there was a deodexed/zip aligned rom based on the most recent UVLG7 update for the t869, but despite a few views, no one seems to have an answer. We have been looking into how we can try to deodex it ourselves, and our jobs takes up most of our personal time and so we've no time to learn, but we seemed to have hit a wall, and I am hesitant to ask because I don't want to be judged, warned or banned for asking what others might consider a "noob" question or ridiculed for not having the same level of experience as everyone else around here.
So, in the meantime, I just quietly wait and hope that more options will present themselves.
Actually i can learn how to deodex my tab...bcoz i done deodex my previous device...but, just deodex...i dont know how to tweaks, how to make a custom rom, how to make a custom kernel, how to make a themes(but i know how to change Jpeg file on system.ui and framework-res)...ohh god...i hope we will get dev on our section...

That's just the minimum that are required by them to be released I think, it's not everything. ATM our CM10 relies on some binary blobs for things such as the kernel from the S3 simply because there's no source available to build yourself and there's not enough documentation to write one yourself either.

Hi xda
Instead of dealing with a stable CM7 CM9 why do not you? (Google translate.. Sorry)
İ want stable cm7.. Because cm9-cm10 is buggy..
If you want stable Rom use e.g. Frabkenstainmod, i think cm 7 is stable enough, i think its a good thing what dhiru is doing and other dev are also doing. They are working on stable cm 9 and cm 10 and when that get stable, the roms will be much better than cm 7

Like what BassBlaster said, why would developers spend time on CM 7 when they can help CM9 and CM10 be stable. ICS and JB have more Mods, Kernels and Rom then Gingerbread, and the designed are more nice than Gingerbread. And I'm still curious what makes your phone laggy on JB and ICS.
