Probably have reached or are approaching the limits of what can be done by tweaking existing ROMs.
I'm not sure if we have anyone in the community that has the time and skills for an AOSP bringup and owns an Infuse. Once an AOSP bringup is complete, there are a LOT more options as far as places to take our device.

After coming from the x10 forum....i can wholeheartedly agree. Those crazy bastards did some outrageous stuff with stock. Heck they somehow shoved gingerbread on that thing before it even got 2.1 and thats with a locked bootloader.

Don't hate lol. As people have already said we already have some nice changes to the stock rom and more to come. I came from the Evo and had cm7...oh how that will be amazing.
From what I've read devs are working on cm but I don't know how that is going but at least its going. Devs have phones all they need it time I too hope its sooner rather than later.

Entropy512 wrote that at this point, the developers have done as much as they can by tweaking the stock ROM. In other words, not much can be done until another ROM is pushed from Samsung and the carriers. MikeyMike01 countered and said that this is not true at all. holland6045 agreed, and said that his experience with a certain phone is that a *lot* can be done by tweaking the stock ROM of a phone. CHUDLINGS said that developers are working on porting CM7, and that more time is needed. bignate78 mentions that (possibly) a Samsung-delivered Gingerbread ROM is likely to be released in Candada soon, and that this would speed up development.
Not being very familiar with the development status, I would summarize as follows: At this point, we are limited to tweaking the stock ROM. Although developers are working on porting CM7, many are waiting for a Gingerbread ROM to be pushed to the phone (likely in Canada first) so that they do not have to start from scratch.
[@Anyone: If I've misinterpreted anything, do correct me.]

I think the part about waiting for gingerbread to drop on the canadian carrier is the most accurate
who the hell wants to waste so much time getting it over from another gs device when it's nearly ready to drop in some form ?

Yeah. I believe gtg made a comment that there are a number of tweaks to Infused that he's not bothering with because he'd have to redo them when the Canadian Gingerbread release drops.

Alright, thanks for the info men.

No problem. Also thanks to the guy who pretty much translated that all for him.
Oh and just for the record, as an example of what you can do when you really want to with a stock fw: the devs over on the x10 forum (while not infighting ) effectively gutted the stock to the bare necessities and transplanted gingerbread onto that...because even though Sony got hacked, they do a darn good job at locking down a bootloader. But in the end they bypassed that too.
Also i must say i like the community here much better, a lot more friendly and helpful.

Woah! Love this phone.

After dropping my first captivate in a river early this year, I finally got a new one a couple weeks ago.
I must say things have changed a lot around here, after reading for a few days I am finally caught back up on everything I missed
Awesome job guys, thanks for all the hard work you guys have put into keeping this phone current and awesome. I can't see myself upgrading for a while

We even have ICS!!!

lol. A lot of people thought I was crazy because I didn't want to wait a month for the atrix to come out.
Then another month for roms to come out.
So far I love my captivate.

ICS alpha 6
has anyone taken a look at the alpha available on pirate bay? i wanna know how to install it and if its legit. I can't post it cause i'm a new poster

There are already a lot of ICS threads on here. I believe the A6 ROM was posted on the "ICS ported to i897" thread in the development section.

I would never go there for roms.
I am running A6 as we speak which I got from these forums.
Camera doesn't work (for video or pictures)
SU doesn't work (haven't toyed with workaround yet)
3g (I am trying work arounds now, doesn't work by default)
Still a really impressive interface to play around with, and I think I can live with the cons for a little while until a more stable rom gets hosted. I will say I am in love with this os though.
The interface alone is so modern and fresh feeling I can't entirely explain it.

kjdoug............THIS is the only site you need to mod your captivate. forget any torrent site when it comes to the OS on your phone.
BTW welcome to the forum! READ lots, you will learn, also there are a lot of top notch guys on here that will help you out.

I noticed. I'm watching the dev thread, with excitement.
Waiting for more of the bugs to be worked out before I flash it. I use my phone for work so it has to be almost 100% stable

It just fits nicely in my hand and my pocket, All the new SGS2s all seem to large. IMHO

and ICS beta1 works mighty fine, i might add!

So does CM team's Build 3....

Yes I would recommend the CM9 version (or working towards it) if you want to try out ICS. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1363760
The 3g works without any manipulations, almost everything works as a matter of fact. Calendar sync did need some .apk switched in to get calendar working in beta2 but at least for me in beta3 I didn't have to redo anything. All my apps from tibu work and download correctly. It just seems to be very smooth.
PS. I also upgraded to the ATT SGS2 and love it but I also have my cappy as backup and love messing with all the roms for it still. Basically testing it all out. Plus I am pleasantly surprised that the cappy got ICS before the SGS2.

yahh I'm on the Beta 1 dev version, I feel it is smoother, there is no need for scripts anymore, everything works without doing extra flashes(besides kernel and superuser). I get much better battery life out of this one too! The one from DemonWav's thread.

HTC sensation

Is the HTC sensation a better device in terms of support?
Sent from my myTouch 4G Slide using xda premium

The Sensation has been out and running for a while now and has seen It's share of updates, so I think, and this is just my opinion that the Sensation won't be getting *much more attention after ICS.
Whether HTC decides to take the DoubleShot to ICS or stall It's ota update once again, these very talented devs here should and will make this a fun phone
Sent from my myTouch_4G_Slide using Tapatalk

short answer: yes.
long answer: no, both suck when compared to other popular phones. They didn't even get cm7 beyond some early alphas not really suitable for daily usage.
you may want to look elsewhere if you wanna have an active development community (hint: sgs2)

Started to....but didnt want the hassle
But it is the users like you who halt development, I've noticed more so of people just wanting to give up all together because a device don't "officially" get this or that, hell I remember when the Speedy had no CM love, then toast comes along and builds it from ground up (basically) and BAM official CM support! Or when the shifts update was only to Sense 2.1 and we managed to squeeze Sense 3.0 into it....or my favorite when the EVO GB update still left them with Sense 1.0 and they were actually able to use the Shifts parts to upgrade their UI version. There are tons of things, really good things that can be done with Android and all it takes is someone NOT giving up...there will always be a workaround we just got to find it

Slide is still worth more...
When quad core phones start rolling, prices on these dual cores will drop like rocks. And the single core snapdragons and scorpions will become the best bargain since the $99 touchpad Honestly, there was no real need for me to jump from the G2 to the Doubleshot. But I wanted the extra beef under the hood. Lol, and the resale value.
I don't understand how people can compare QWERTYs and non QWERTYs. It's like apples to oranges. I would never "upgrade" to a Sensation, even for free. No keyboard = not the phone for me, no matter how much support it has.
Devs can crank out roms like no tomorrow, but that won't change the fact that I'm still missing a keyboard.

that's up to you really. putting aside the hardware differencies, keep in mind that:
-sensation is getting official ICS these days, our phone may never get it
-CM development for sensation, albeit slow, is still going on. CM for our phone is most likely indefinately on hold due to the mantainer personal's issues
if it was for me, i wouldn't spend that much money on an almost identical phone, i'd save for the next gen ones

Straight from Primadonna's page:
Not working:
WiFi Hotspot
USB Tethering
Auto Brightness Values
Softkey rotation on Inc S/2
You tell us
Let me know which one of those you find major
I don't even have a data plan so wifi hotspot doesn't matter to me. as far as i'm concerned, this rom is great.

usb tethering and auto brightness are major to me. also there are many reports of apps crashing and random reboots left and right.
A very good rom but still not one for me
btw a side question: does the camcorder take 1080p or 720p only?

It records full 1080p I'm running it as a daily driver.

Why are you guys talking about primadonna's ROM? Its not for the doubleshot, right? I dunno, I came back after a couple days to this forum and everyones talking about primadonna out of nowhere.

Yep primadonna is for the Double shot its still apha but it doesnt seem to be in anyway .. very stable and smooth just some minor issues that im sure will be fix in the comming weeks.

Why did i ever trade?!

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1678524
well, the mytouch 4g now has a almost completely fully functioning JB ROM and the g2x has a half-assed alpha test (sorry, EB team, not trying to belittle your work). grrrr. bout to go trade for a 4g slide. what really eats me, is that the G2x is a superior phone hardware wise to most phones even now. and definitively better than the mytouch. I feel the g2x community has fallen apart and due to that, there will never be a completely functional well.....anything. we should be all working together to iron out the wrinkles in JB not fighting over who developed what first or who can or cant use what code....I'm sorry, but who gives a flying f*** about the code when nothing since froyo has actually been 100% stable and functional on our devices?
im sorry, im just a bit meeved that i traded now. the reason why is in the specs of our phone:
http://geekaphone.com/compare/T-Mobile-G2x-vs-T-Mobile-myTouch-4G
and the state of our community as G2x owners:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1784980
I'm sure i'll be flamed, shunned, and burned for this thread but i really dont care. i like my G2x despite its many downfalls. i want to see it prosper and run JB and other future versions of android.
thanks for reading.

Using the old baseband I have been 100% stable since I first got the g2x... everything works perfectly (aside from slow gps but it still works)
HFP, CM7, and CM7.2 just to name a few have no bugs other than user error which as we all know can't be fixed (because you just can't fix stupid)
I do understand where your coming from however your "facts" are a little skewed.
Good luck with the coding, I hope you will be the next great Dev!
Pin it to Win it.

Even though I don't use my G2X as my main phone anymore, it is my go to device as my tablet device. I know I don't have a tablet, but when I need to read news, stream videos, read emails, do all sorts of things, the G2X is my go to device. Hands down CM7 is solid and stable. I do need to reboot it a couple of times a week but I'm not stressed about it.
I've not updated the BB mainly because of the ROMs needing a special modification, and lose access to all the previous ROMs.
I don't care really. I want to use the ICS ROMs but they have bugs. Again all the hate goes to LG. Devs do best they can with little they do have access to.
I have the Galaxy S2, Amaze, and G2X. Hands down, my go to device is my G2X when I am home and in WiFi range. Its faster and snappier. What a waste LG did. Even display is better than the Amaze. It really pisses me off that HTC went cheap on the Amaze's display.
I use the GS2 now because it's got a stable CM9, and honestly detested the Stock ROM. If G2X had a stable CM9 (Full Support with Drivers and everything) and the GPS issue was reliable, I swear I'd go back to my G2X as my main device.
As for reliability is concerned, GS2 and Amaze hands down. Again, pisses me off LG screwed this phone royally.

thats exactly what i was saying. this is the best phone i have ever owned hardware wise. Yes, this is mostly Nvidia & LG's fault, but its still frustrating. my fiancee just got the blaze and its ok. its pretty snappy, but when my G2x is on stock rom, it stomps it... no questions asked. and yeah, the GPS bug is what i was talking abot from pre v21y. also, it is really a pain in the a$$ just to figure out how to downgrade basebands, let alone actually do it. alas, the g2x is my daily driver so i need it to preform well and be stable. that means i need bluetooth calling, working GPS, MMS, all that.

Yeah... Can't argue with you there. The G2x is a POS. I traded my MT4G for this phone too, while I don't really regret it since I got more money once I sold the G2x, the MT4G was far more reliable and every ROM just worked on it.
Either way, it was a lesson learned to never buy another LG phone no matter what the specs are. Samsung and HTC is the way to go from now on. Or better yet, Nexus!

Strongly agree! For $350, I know what I'd buy in a second if my G2x took a crap on me. Still, considering my 2 year contract came with a "free" G2x on each line nearly a year ago - I am not complaining. By the way, stock based 2.3.4 Gingerbread ROMs define stable for me (Thanks Kwes and Buru). However, I suppose I like a little instability in my life though since I married a woman?!? and use CM7 ROMs!?!:silly:

i've been seriously condsidering getting a loan and buying a nexus, than cancelling with t-mobile lol it'd probably be cheaper in the long run.

It's just a phone. If you want to be on the bleeding edge and have something to play around with just get a nexus 7.
I think a lot of people are just jealous that others get ics/jb and don't realize that it's not that big of a difference. g2x works great when I don't have my tablet.

Most Stable ROM atm?

A year ago, the MT4G boards were extremely active, but we've seen a huge decline in popularity on these boards. Because of this, polls are no longer taken on who's everyone's favorite ROM is anymore and the MT4G Bible isn't being updated.
I was waiting a while before rooting my MT4G and decided to take the leap tonight. I flashed the JB Dark Unicorn ROM, and it's been disastrous. Every app I press comes up with "______ has stopped working" and I'm basically stuck there. (can't even post there for help since I have less than 10 posts)
I'm sure no one wants to go through the frustration that I'm going through, so I was wondering if we should have some type of poll to see which ROMs out there are the most popular and stables ones?

Every app I press comes up with "______ has stopped working" and I'm basically stuck there. (can't even post there for help since I have less than 10 posts)
I'm sure no one wants to go through the frustration that I'm going through, so I was wondering if we should have some type of poll to see which ROMs out there are the most popular and stables ones?

Op, it's likely a bad flash, I have used the ICS and JB version of dark jelly bean and unicorn, I didn't find any bugs do I am not quite sure what you're talking about. Much like Awesome, I am on denial

Second this rom. Quite stable and nearly everything works! I'd flash a different kernel though (AOSPX stock, mintchocolate chip), and its pretty damn awesome.

I will try soon

Synthetics ROM AOSPX is definitely the most stable ICS for glacier, IMO.

Go with cm7. By far the most polished of the glacier roms.
Also, on first boot, don't set up instantly. Let it sit there for 5 mins to settle. Makes a huge improvement in stability for me.

While I agree that CM7 is very polished and a great choice, I don't agree that it is "by far the most polished."
But again, you can't go wrong with it.

What would you say is more polished? Not to be argumentative, just curious. I literally buy my phones based on what the cm team supports.

More polished? Nothing. But of the top of my head, aospx is AS polished. At least it was last time I tried it. Mind you, much of it's stability comes from the fact that it isn't super feature packed liked CM. Less addons = less potential issues. But again, aospx was always 100% trouble free for me.
That is a good idea though, buying devices based on official CM support :thumbup:

Good thing with cm7 is that it works right from the getgo no fixes or mods needed IMO.but A CM9 rom (port) like mimicry is good as long as you know what to add to it,,What I mean is if you dont add things like lowmic fix ,camera fix and a newer stable kernel such as frosted cherry with the 720 fix it pretty much sucks! with those mods/fixes it makes it pretty damn good and stable!No offense to Awesome but I havent had much luck with dark unicorn myself.

I agree that synthetic's aospX ROM is very stable. Stable enough in fact that my whole family is now using it.
