So the crackflashers have done it again - Gingerbread is now on the Desire / Bravo
Based on CM 7 Source
Thanks to Cyanogen, #teamdouche and @gridlock32404 (Thatguy32404) - These are unoffical builds based on their code as such..
Code:
These builds have nothing extra added, they are just like the usual
"nightly" builds. There is no support provided, this is just a hobby and
I thought I would share. If you don't know how to flash a unofficial build,
don't want possible bugs or don't like living on the edge, go away!
Do a nandroid backup first!
OK so here is how to get it up and running:
Step 1 - Download the latest build from http://www.crackflashers.com look in the builds folder for the latest file - The build will increment by 1 each time there is a new build so if there is one there greater than b#29 download it << In case I don't get the thread updated at the same time
Step 2 - Download the Gingerbread apps from NEEDS UPDATED TO POINT TO DESIRE / BRAVO. crackflashers.com/ace/[/URL] look in the google-apps folder for the file gingerbread-gapps-12302010.zip
Step 3 - Place all these files onto your sd card reboot into recovery
Step 4 - Flash the files using the install zip from sdcard option (do the rom first then the gapps)
Step 5 - Reboot phone and enjoy the Gingerbread goodness

This is the first build that I actually made for the desire so to say we don't exactly know what other additions made outside the source/gingerbread will or won't work. The only way to try is to make a nandroid backup after you flash this in and try it
Ps. The new recovery image is not supported in rom manager so everything will need to be done in the recovery manually even thought the code of the recovery is made by koush it is not an official release by him at all, just built from it. it is the only recovery currently that can handle ext 4 /system partion that cm7 source is based on.
You will not be able to restore a pre-cm7 source build on this recovery or flash a pre cm7 rom on it either (hence the backup recovery.img if you decide to go back) you can backup and restore any cm7 source rom on this recovery
Yes the new recovery is needed to flash gapps and newer updates as they become availible.
This is on the list of many devices I am compiling for. Currently g2, mt4g, evo4g, droid, desire hd, desire and sometimes the n1. If you can't seem to find an answer to something there is a good chance you will find it in one of those sections. Just look for posts from me

Sorry to get your hopes up guys, the code for the cm parts is there in the source and was all good to be added in but what the main code (not just the app but the framework parts of it) were removed till implemented. Still a build 13 coming shorty. It is compiling but will be missing the cm parts

For those having problems with Gapps on newer htc phones like g2, mt4g and desire hd try the new gapps I have posted up at http://gridlock.euroskank.com and grab the EMMC ones
Everyone else can grab the MTD gapps
This should remove having to mount /system in recovery but run fix permissions in the advanced section of the recovery just in case

whats cwm3 originate from? is there also a changing codebase, or is this a static build, which wont change at all?

There isn't any nightlies that I know of! Cwm3 is the recovery that is in the cm7 source code and it builds a recovery for the device that you compile for. Only when someone changes something in the recovery does it change

Once you flash a cm7 source based rom the system becomes ext4, other roms/cm6 are only ext 4 so in order for the /system to mount in recovery for making nandroid backups or to flash anything it needs to have a recovery that can support ext4, which currently is the recovery posted with these builds which is based on clockworkmod recovery because koush hasn't released a official recovery yet (also since it is unofficial rom manager does not support it, so everything has to be done manually in the recovery)

MOTIVATION
Welcome in the official thread of the project. This post is made to let discover you why this project is born. We are two universitary students that want more about a new branch of th IT Area, the Embedded OS Porting. We have a particular device, the HUAWEI IDEOS U8150, so our port is in this direction.
So don't ask to us why we are porting this version of Android with this device, because this project starts for educate ourself to the porting of Android OS, in particular we are oriented to port CyanogenMod ver 9. We made research to define a good porting for this device, so all the support ,moral, technical and economic(we need more RAM and CPU frequency) is really appreciated. We are also thinking to port, after this ROM Porting, the MIUI v4.
We work to create a stable ROM that could enjoy all great people that have this device. We think that newest releases of Android could run on this kind of mid-low level devices, so we make all the possible to complete this work.

Hello everybody, i'm new and i'm Italian (sorry for my bad English)
I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 GT-P3100 (3g+wi-fi) and i want a costum rom because i see some lag with the original and i don' t want all of these useless apps from Samsung..
I have a question for the expert:
I use my tablet EVERYDAY for messaging, and calling (it's my personal tab-phone) , i don't want to lost these 2 very usefull features..
So, are this rom:
Stock Rooted De-Odexed-Base
CM9
CM10
compatible for call and sms?
I'm a newbie with this tablet (i purchased it in 20/08/2012 and i have only the root) , but i have some experience about ROM because i have a LG optimus one rooted @CM10 unofficial
Thanks all
Yes i tried the three in my 5100 which has also phone functions, sms and 3g and all functions work good do not worry may be somewhat bluetooth problems in cms but more smooth i recommend cm10 i use it now

Bluetooth send is good bluetooth receive so so this is the only problem found till now no other problems i think will improve with time as other nightly builds come
cm10 found in www.teamhacksung.org do not forget to flash cwm 6.0.1.0 or cwm 6.0.1.0 before cm10 or stay in cwm 5.5.0.4 for cwm9
cm9 for 3100 http://teamhacksung.org/wiki/index.php/CyanogenMod9:GT-P3100:How_to_install
cm10 for 3100 http://teamhacksung.org/wiki/index.php/CyanogenMod10:GT-P3100:How_to_install
read full operation carefully before proceeding
if you flashed cwm6 then make a nandroid backup again before flashing as backups made with cwm 5 not restored with cwm6 if you want to revert to stock easily

Question: how did you update recovery via rom manager what buttons you pressed is it update or install recovery or install touch recovery or install older versions or what?

Hi
When I am in rom manager the first options is "Install ClockworkMod Recovery" so I just press it, I select my model (gt-p3100) and it automatically download the necessary files and install CWM.
Now I remember that i flash immediatly CWM 6.0.1.0 with root sorry, my bad! I have never have CWM 5 but ALWAYS CWM 6!!
But first time I have install rom manager I try "install ClockworkMod Recovery" but it frezze my tablet, after i just press "fix permission" and I install CWM only because rom manager tell me i haven't a CWM version on my tablet!
I' ve just flash CM10_25/08/2012 nightly! it is so beautiful and REALLY fast! I have delete some system applications like "news and weather" and "movie studio" because i don't use and i made a backup of the .apk..
Right now i'm using Apex Launcher because I have a little familiarity
I don't know why in the official thread first post in the photo there is the tablet UI down, and in mine is at the top of the screen! And there isn't the option like in my LG P500 for "tablet bar"
Why? now i take a screen for explain
But i have a question: I have the backup of the original rom 4.0.4 in "/mnt/sdcard/clockworkmod" but there is a folder named "backup" with some .img file and a folder named "blobs" which contains A LOT OF file (4381 files, 2674 folders and 1,5 GB)
Is this two folders (backup and blobs) the backup of my previus original version? Can i save a copy in my computer for more accuracy and for take 1,5 Gb free?
Thank you in advance!
Ah, another question: are there a framework for the tablet ui? just a .zip to flash in recovery, i don't want difficult things
I notice that now i can charge my tablet with computer port, just beautiful if it's real!
Sorry for the update:
I set 133 dpi in build.prop and now it's okay, but the text is too small, and in setting I enlarge the caracters
Now it's all ok, I need to buy a new memory (my 2 gb class 2 suck)
I think a 32 Gb class 10 micro sd by Samsung is good for music and much other
The battery is ok, I can do a complete day with normal use like messagging ( 14-15 hours), internet messagging (whatsapp: 7 hours) call (1-2 hours a day) internet in wi-fi (20-22 hours) internet with my sim (3g or H 1 hour) and some other stuff
Now with this CM10 i can charge my tablet with the usb port from the computer! really helpfull for me
It is brilliant to see this CM10 in action
I change the original bootanimation because it's crappy and lag very much.. i put the CM10 bootanimation and it's ok
I think i will not flash a new kernel because the one'st I see in the forum is specific for overclocking but not some interesting/new features, only hazard
Now I'm in peace with myself :fingers-crossed: my tablet is amazing and i don't want anything else!
Only more CM rom with juicy news
EDIT: Only a problema appear:
Stock Cm 10 gallery doesn't sincronize my photo from Google+ damn.. i search another gallery or take the stock gallery from ICS

From the beginning, I used a few days the stock ROM, then Tab2Lite, what really did it's job very well, then CM9, then CM10 and back to CM9, which seems currently the best working CM Version with great battery life. My p3110 is sold but remains on my desk with sleeping CM9. On Sunday 26. August 1 am it finished loading (100%) and is now on 30%. I only switched it on for checking battery every day. So I think that's pretty good.
But Tab2Lite was also very good. But if you don't like big ROMs with (less) bloatware, I suggest CM9. I also heard from Paranoid Android ROMs, probably that one will be fine as well.
I think i will test CM10 for the moment and after i flash CM9 only for see what it changes
Thaks all for the help!

With the CM10 nightlies increases the functionality of CM10 very quickly. I would suggest to try in a different order, first CM9 and than the smoother CM10. Than you probably want to stay with CM10 and you don't have to flash again.
But give us a feedback anyway.

I found CM10 a really good costum ROM, for speed, really rare lag and it has what I really need in my tab.
There is only a problem: the gallery of CM10 don't sincronize my Google+ photos and if I press the options it display a blank page without any options or informations..
I think this problem is resolved by using another version of the gallery, like the stock 4.0.4 or something like this.
My original backup have some .img files and a lot of folders and I can't extract the gallery.apk
I can download the CM9 zip and take out the gallery.apk but I don't know if it work
In play store there is a porting for the old version of android that they can have a similar ICS gallery but it's not free..
I think this problem is only the smallest for developer of CM10 but for me it's a big problem because I have a lot of photo in Google+ only because I know I can have in my phone by just adding my gmail account...
Can anyone know if this problem is solved by the newest 2 version of CM10? (20120827 and 20120828 version)
(I have 20120825 version, 20120826 still doesn't exist in ROM manager, I think a bug version)
Second problem: if I turn the tablet in air mode it close the Wi-Fi connection, but after I switch ON the wireless it's OK idk why it can turn off the Wi-Fi by turn off the sim transmissions...
Wanting to get from 1.1.6 megaton CM9 to CM10, and have a few questions.
1. What's won't with the official CM10 nighties? Seems everyone is using the b2 unofficial version.
2. Do I need to go to cwm 6 first?
3. Any install instructions? I don't seem to see any and know things can be a bit different on every device. Some need other things wiped, ect.
Anything else? Polaris working in there?
Will give you thanks for answers.

From RaymanFX's thread.
Why did I build this ?
Because the current (official) CM10 releases are way to unstable and sluggish to be usable.
I reviewed their code on GitHub and noticed many outdated libraries as well as an outdated kernel.
I even added on some more features, like full dock support !

The general opinion is that he's made it faster and more stable. I haven't tried an 'official' CM10 but I can tell you that my tablets never run better than it does on this ROM. Revolver 4 by Gnufabio is a close third for me after RaymanFX's AOSP JB, but gnufabio's ROM is ICS, not JB.
As for installing a different ROM on your tablet?
(While in recovery)
Wipe all data (user data, cache, dalvik cache)
Select ROM .zip file from your external SD card.
Reboot after install completes.
Done.
- If it's a minor update to a ROM you already have installed you can usually get away with leaving your user data alone, but a FULL wipe is always best practice.
As for recoveries, I use ClockworkMod Recovery Version 6.X.X.X. I picked that one as it's also by RaymanFX and figure it'd be the best to use with his ROM's.
Thanks folks.
Main reason I was asking Is I'm seeing there aren't a lot of updates to the Rayman version, and that note about why it was created was made some time ago, but CM10 Official does have nightlies. I was wondering if perhaps the Official version had finally gotten better, but I'm assuming not.
Looks like the usual wipes for installing, so I'll get it done today.
Any word about Polaris Office working?

It Is Not required to update them cause they can be updated via playstore.
and if u still want it check the info cause if its backwards compatible it will be written.

Actually, in my recent experience over the last few days with flashing half a dozen roms and gapps you can't just mix and match as you want.
Certain gapps were made for different versions of android.
For example, I tried several roms built on android 4.2x and was installing gapps made for 4.3 and it kept crashing the keyboard which was great because without the keyboard you can't enter any text or info at all.
I found out later what was going on because I found the gapps repository which included release notes for each gapps zip package and in there it indicated for which android version they are made.
I thought the roms were bad but went back again and reflashed the roms with the older but correct version gapps and then they worked, no keyboard crashes.
So in short, flash the gapps package for the version of android you are installing and then later once you are up and running if an app needs updating it will do so via google play.

Certain gapps were made for different versions of android.
For example, I tried several roms built on android 4.2x and was installing gapps made for 4.3 and it kept crashing the keyboard which was great because without the keyboard you can't enter any text or info at all.
I found out later what was going on because I found the gapps repository which included release notes for each gapps zip package and in there it indicated for which android version they are made.
I thought the roms were bad but went back again and reflashed the roms with the older but correct version gapps and then they worked, no keyboard crashes.
So in short, flash the gapps package for the version of android you are installing and then later once you are up and running if an app needs updating it will do so via google play.
