so i am just wondering what will happen if say the G2 does get gingerbread and I am Running CM 6.1 RC2... will i get the update, or will i have to go back to the stock rom to get it to work with the phone... assuming CM 6.1 wont work with 2.3 right away?
I agree OTAs are always blocked especially in CM6, I wonder if Gingerbread will be called CM7?
since CM has been going up in version for every other release of android then i would say it is safe to say that gingerbread will become CM7

Pointless argument:
True. But Eclair (2.0/1) was 6.0, and Froyo (2.2) is 6.1. So if Gingerbread is really 2.3 as suggested, then it'd make sense that it be 6.2.
Either way, it doesn't matter

No, you're wrong.
Donut was CM4.
Eclair was CM5.
Froyo is CM6. When cyanogen updated to 2.2.1, that may have been why they changed it to 6.1, don't quote me on it though.
So it makes sense that Gingerbread will be CM7
haha whoops, got my version numbers mixed up for a bit. It's been forever since I wasn't on cm6. My bad
To answer the OP: yes, ota's are blocked in cm. A rooted build will be out within the next day of release, and might work over cm without a wipe. Sadly, cm7 on the other hand won't be out for a little while after gingerbread source is released.

NO you are!!11 dot
I have the same question... But the difference is that Im running Virtuous 0.7.0 (I really like the Sense on my G2)... so, If Gingerbread is released... Will apply to my phone, even if im running that awesome Virtuous ROM? or I have to do what @aad4321 replied earlier??
I wouldn't worry. A CM Gingerbread build will be out long before a carrier OTA...unless you're on a Nexus One!

so since the 2.3 sdk was released today just wondering if anyone is starting on building a rom for the mytouch. maybe even with a few tweaks like adding the overclock to 1.7.
As far as I know the SDK is usually never enough to build a stable rom.
Considering that we don't even have a stable froyo rom yet, I think gingerbread is quite a ways away.

need the source to drop into the git before you will see true usable gingerbread roms... which will probably be a few weeks.

Nope.
There is no current protocol to have the Sense Skin hang on the 2.3 framework. HTC Doesn't put their Sense Skin out there for open source, so the devs cannot make the two work in unity.
Is anyone using any 2.2 froyo with sense??? for everyday use...
if yes how is it??
whats the name of that rom?
ChocolateFroyo Rel2 is the ONLY 2.2 sense rom available but doesnt have a working camera...Development stopped due to this in the first week of january
not true ... there are three 2.2 sense roms on xda but chocolatefroyo is the one with most working stuff.
thanks....i think i'll wait for the villian team with there froyo w/sense rom...i hope it would come soon
not true. i have VILLAINROM 12.0 based on froyo 2.2 with sense is the best rom with sense for the hero. and if you flash the "flykernel-12a" you can do overclock and set up the cpu for 710 mhz!!!!
That's based on Android 2.1 'Eclair' not Froyo
chocolate froyo was fixed the bug of the camera????

As stated few post before, all Android OS 2.2 with Sense (including chocolate froyo) all comes with non working camera. It's not a bug, it's source not available for Sense 2.2 ROM developers.
If it's of anyone's interest on using Sense, VR13 is now available for flashing.
It's still based on Android OS 2.1 (Eclair) though, not OS 2.2 (Froyo).
Ok thanks!!!!!!!! One think.. Can you send me the link to find villainrom 13 please???
I finded it!!!! I´m going to flash villainrom13 on my hero thanksssss
I need help.
Hello! Already i WAS flashed the VILLAINROM V13 based on ECLAIR but someone does not like to me. Anyone can to say to his criterion any stable and current ROM for HERO?THANKS!!!!!
PD: IF CAN POSSIBLE WITH & WITHOUT SENSE PLEASEEEE!!!!
You don't like the current VR13 that you had flashed?
May be you grew bored with Eclair (OS2.1).
You may wish to try flash Froyo (OS2.2) ROMs then, such as
Froyd1.73 by VillainRom, CM6.2 Speedmachine V2 by Elelinux, Elelinux's other Froyo ROMs, Erasmux's Floyo1.2, Radug's TastyFroyo, Cronos Froyo 1.8....
Froyo ROMs should be very stable and suitable for daily use.
If you are adventurous enough, you may try flash GingerBread (OS2.3) ROMs, such as Elelinux's 7RC2 Hero v1.4, CyanogenMod 7 Nightly or Cronos' GB1.9
Try Gingerbread ROMs if you like to try new things but these ROMs at the current stage all still have bugs here and there.
Remember, always Nandroid your current ROM (back up, in case you need to restore back).
Have fun

I love Sense, but as it's stuck on 2.1 (for everything to work), I've been trying various other ROMs.
I'd certainly recommend that you use ROM Manager to backup whatever ROM you're on so you can completely restore your previous (working) ROMs with apps etc.
I'd been using FroydVillain Villiainrom 1.7.2 for a while (very stable - 2.2), but started trying the CM7 ROMs (2.3.3) - the best I've come across is Elelinux-7.0.0-RC2-Hero-v1.5 (2011-03-17):

Am i the only one that really would like the fascinate to get MIUI gingerbread? We already have a port and we also have CM7. It would just make my day if someone would port/upgrade the MIUI ROM that we currently have.

Once we get a fully working CM7, then I am sure someone will take a stab at it. Just be patient. If you are looking for some MIUI with great functionality I would definitely use TSM's MIUIWIZ. It is pretty sweet.

but we won't have a fully working CM7 until we get a leak of gingerbread :/
Also couldn't we get gingerbread MIUI now? but mms and other stuff wouldn't be working
And i'm actually running MIUIwiz right now

My friend has an incredible and he has MIUI gingerbread on his phone, its pretty awesome. So i was just wondering the status of the fassy getting MIUI ginger, but i'll be patient and wait till the day!
I was just wondering why there are no custom froyo roms, even know GB is coming out some time this month or next, but all gb roms that are out are betas.
I would like to see something stable from you awesome devs !
I have been using the Gingerbread ROM by KennethPenn and recently switched to Ninja.. Both have been extremely stable (Kenneth's one is a basically stock build with added speed hacks that he can't test, hence the beta) with minor bugs. I say keep developing for Gingerbread

+1 agreed.
What I've got running now is far smoother than anything Froyo.
ORFR234, deodexed, zipaligned, SD card hack, multi-touch enhancements, OC kernel with voltage profiles, etc, etc.
Haven't played with any ROMs because I honestly don't like themes. It's easy as heck to do as well. Just read all the guides and you can't go wrong
The reason that there aren't any Froyo roms being developed is that the Bootloader isn't unlockable with Froyo on it. You'd need to upgrade to Gingerbread to unlock the bootloader, so there's no real sense in trying to make a new rom for an outdated version of the operating system.
and If you go back to froyo with unlocked bootloader,You have a hard brick.
I am using cherryblur 1.3 with stock theme,so far I find it far better than froyo stock.
Its heating problem is solved and battery is pretty good for me.
only thing I am looking for is processor undervolting and profiles which will work with overclocked kernel .

Huh? Im unlocked with froyo. And I think froyo isn't going to be developed.for. because that would be like developing for windows 98 at this point.

Not true. Going back to froyo using sbf files *may* hard brick your phone. You can flash to froyo with fruit cake files with very little risk.
