Just wondering if any gingerbread kernels are still in development. I just flashed the latest cm7 nightly on my ns4g and noticed the kernel is a really old version. Did a search with the app here but couldn't find anything useful so sorry if its a dumb question.
And if there are... links please

Highly unlikely. A lot, if not all of the guys have moved onto ICS kernel development.

so me and my bro both have a captivate, i just installed the continuum rom for him, and im running CM7. He cant use CM7 since he need a lot of batter life but he was wondering if there is anyway to lets say get the dialer/keyboard from CM7 and use it on his rom? i know cm7 is a port but there both 2.3 so i was thinking it might work.
thanks
Different dialer apps. Continuum us a samsung rom cm7 is a asop rom. In short, I do not believe so

Should have posted in the CM7 sticky in Q&A.
Thread closed.
I see that people are using the Trinity Kernel for this build (CM10). I used the Trinity Kernal with the CM9 build and was very happy with it. I want to use it with this build but I'm not sure which kernel to use. There are the 4GS kernels for ICS and then there are Galaxy Nexus kernels for JB. Which ones am I supposed to use. I would reply to the build thread but I don't have enough posts to post in the Nexus S 4g Development Thread. Any help is appreciated. Thanks
Jb and ics kernels aren't cross compatible. If a kernel does not specifically indicate that it is built for jb/4.1 on Ns/4g, don't flash. With that being said, ns kernels will often work on ns4g but they must still be built for the android version you are running. Check out the dev section for available kernels, there are currently 3 jb kernels (2my knowledge) built for the ns4g. Don't hesitate to try them all I'm order to determine which works best for your device.

Thanks for the response. So even thought the Trinity site says that would be for the Galaxy Nexus it would still work? The way it lists them is as follows.
ICS Kernels (Android 4.0)
Galaxy Nexus (All)
Nexus S (All)
SGS3 (TMO/ATT)
JB Kernels (Android 4.1)
Galaxy Nexus (all)
The Seven
Now with that being said are you suggesting that I use the GN Kernel since it's for JB.
Again thank you for your help with this.

Don't do that. The GNex kernels are not for the Nexus S. In the Trinity thread there was a NS kernel released (very basic) a few pages back. Morfic is working on a new release that will work on the NS4g/jellybean. Just be patient, will be worth the wait.
Edit: just released test version ...

Thanks for the heads up! I will check out the test version.
Hey,
my friend just bought a skyrocket and I will be rooting it for him.
Is there a fairly "stable" CM10 rom or JB rom?
and which radio am I supposed to use with it?
thank you
Save you the trouble because this will be locked.
In the SR community our Mods don't allow these sorts of questions since it leads to trolls and flaming.
In other words, I'm not allowed to answer your question but can advise you in trying different ROMs and seeing what your friend would like.

Superlite CM10+Superlite Gapps was really good when I tried it. I'm actually going to install it again since I'm still tinkering with mine.
Only downside I noticed, and it's probably some easy fix I missed, in GL benchmark on egypt 2.1, ICS CM9 was 52fps, JB CM10 SL was 45fps.

Best threads are subjective. I suggest you read and give them a quick test or stick to Samsung based firmware
Hi there,
I just got the Rogers S2 LTE for my wife. I rooted the phone and am looking to install a Non-Touchwiz ICS ROM for her. There seems to be many great ROMS for this phone but it is a little overwhelming, I've been using the HTC Desire Z and Inspire and this is my first taste of Samsung Smartphones. I'm currently using Ice Cold Sandwich AOKP for my Inspire and really like it. Can anyone recommend something similar for the Skyrocket? I've tried the stable version of CM9 and like it but want to know what else is available. I would like something that is stable as she will be using it as a daily ROM. Any recommendations are appreciated.
Thanks.
Please read through the threads for the various ROMs and make your own decisions. "Best" threads like this one are not allowed because they lead to flaming and migraines.
This ^ and if uve been on xda for awhile u should know that questions should be posted in the Q&A section and not in the general section
Sent from my SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app
My bad, I was debating which section to post it in. I will try all the different ROMS to see which works best for her. Thanks for replying.
As far as non-tw goes, aokp (I believe milestone 6 was the latest ics build) or cm9 are probably your best bets.
Not sure if you've seen it but there is a list of ICS ROMs in vincom's sticky here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1785999
I would go through them for options and see what appeals if ICS is important for you. I had good results with Magic Whiz R2, which you might like as a tweaked version of CM9. You're not going to see a lot of dev effort around ICS based ROMs, most have switched focus to JB and with the new CM10 nightlies for the skyrocket even more so (you might consider that too if you like CM9).

Thanks for the advice, I really appreciate it. I will try those ROMS first.
First wrong section. Second, search, read, test them out and make that decision yourself.

Hello thanks for reply
Can you send me the link to well stable CM7 or ICS rom?also are they different(I'm really dumb in this)?And method to flash.
I'm sorry man but your basically asking me to give you every piece of information necessary in order to flash a custom ROM. All of this information can be found in the stickies of the various G2X forums. It is apparent that you are not quite knowledgeable enough yet for me to suggest that you flash your phone. I suggest reading the stickies and learning everything there is to know about flashing this phone. All of the information is available to you here on this forum. I will however recommend CM7 as it is a stable and newb friendly ROM to start with. I would download the latest weekly at get.cm . As far as flashing methods are concerned you need to use Clockwork Mod Recovery. There are many threads about it and a bundle of information dedicated to CWM Recovery in the stickies of this forum. Please read them.

there's no such thing as stable. You want stable? Stick to 2.3.4.
CM7 is 2.3.4 (or 2.3.3, depending) GB and is absolutely stable. No reason or advantage to staying stock with this device unless blue tooth phone audio is a necessity.
Latest CM7 is 2.3.7... I'm using the March 2013 version.

well gee. Why would i want bluetooth phone audio? Maybe so i can use my bluetooth headset for calls and not just music?
if it's missing something or something is broken.. IT IS NOT STABLE.

CM7 is absolutely stable as Pain said, and he is right. If you think CM7 is not stable go look up stable in the dictionary. CM7 is not perfect, but very much stable. I also believe its only a baseband issue where CM7 has the Bluetooth issue (old baseband works fine, new one doesn't).

Yeah, Idk why I said that lol, I was thinking about the baseband differences from 2.3.3 and 2.3.4, not the android versions =x
and Eve, it all depends on what you recognize as stable. I don't use nor do I wish to use blue tooth functions for calling purposes. So for me not having that option does not subtract from the "stability" of CM7. I am still able to use bluetooth for media purposes which I rarely do anyway. CM7 offers plenty of customization and options for your phone that you cannot possibly have if it is stock. For a first time user coming from stock software, CM7 will make you feel like you have a brand new device!
