[Video] Cyanogen uploads video of CM6.1 running on G2

http://www.androidpolice.com/2010/1...enmod-video-of-cm6-1-booting-on-cyanogens-g2/

he says that its still worked off a temp root, so we still need to find a perm root for it to be on there over a reboot

Did you see how fast that was running? I mean I don't know what it is bout the G2, but the thing flies. I really like the move of this. Hope to see more, and that's only with temp root for now.

Well, since this isn't permanent this is not a step forward...

I'm guessing it took a fair amount of work to get CM6 up and running on the G2... so I'd say it's a step forward. There are steps between the beginning and the end.

What I'm doing is bringing in all the necessary modifications to *userspace* to build from source and support all the hardware. This is not simply pushing files around. There are a lot of changes for 7x30 required since much of the audio and video output works completely different than what we (and AOSP partially) currently support.
It's not a step forward towards a real root, but a step forward towards having something you can build from scratch and do whatever you'd like with.

Because of cyanogen's work, when the real root happens we will have his amazing rom to use =D

Anychance of an unsupported rc-0 to let us play with? I was planning on using the sdcard method to play with untill real root, this would make it much better!
Thanks for cont. to do what u do, despite all the negitivity.

Those are the people I like to call ass-amistic... They see no glass at all, they see no good, and only some negative. They argue about everything and think they are right about everything...
I think that summed it up! Oh and great work Cyanogen

May not be progress towards root, but it's progress towards having a stable rom as soon as a permanent root is available.
Keep up the good work Cyanogen.

They just hate the fact they have nothing to contribute to "forward movement" whay cyan is doing is far more productive than "why I don't has root yet"....
I have nothing "real" to contribute besides my gratitude and as soon as the "code guru's" who make these phones so much fun do crack the root issue I will buy my G2....
Ignore the haters and lert them be "right"
Keep up the good work and FORWARD momentum, and for christ sakes people say thank you these guys aren't getting rich of this, they are doing YOU a favor!

Gingerbread ported to another galaxy

Anyone smarter than me know if we can work off of this at all?
supercurio said:
See, you just need to ask
Galaxy S with Nexus S kernel - Booting Nexus S Android Gingerbread
Videos are here:
http://www.youtube.com/supercurioxda
What's about this port:
- It uses the Nexus S kernel compiled from sources
- It runs the exact /system image release, we dumped yesterday. (I spent the night of it so it's still the same day!)
Am i French ?
Now you don't have any doubt anymore
Which filesystem ?
This early preview runs on Ext4. no RFS at all, the kernel don't support RFS.
Does everything work ?
Nope, but I must admit I didn't expect such a result.
Don't work: GPS / Voice / Wifi / some Buttons / camera
Work: everything else: like sound, GL acceleration etc
Will it work ?
I think most of it will work after countless hours spent on it.
Is it flashable with Odin ?
That's a good idea <Gregounech>, i think i'll do that tomorrow.
Do you work alone ?
I worked alone to produce this preview, but not to produce the dump yesterday.
Credits go the IRC channel #NSdev on freenode !
What about a team ?
That's the goal. Rendez-vous on IRC so we can produce ports and improve the quality very fast of this.
Is this opensource ?
Everything will be released after i get some sleep!
Edit: for inpatients, I pushed the latest initramfs : https://github.com/project-voodoo/nsonsgs-initramfs

Not sure. Still more or less a noob dev. Not sure how difficult it its to adapt the gsm port for cdma. thoughts anyone?
Would definitely be interested in seeing this happen.

I have been obsessively following efforts at cyanogen forums and this forum... i am pretty on top of things, and i am NOT aware of any success taking kernels/roms/images from GSM and having them work on CDMA...damn right depressing

The problem is deeper than just kernel. There are fundamental issues as to why we're not already on 2.2...
I'd go into it, but this thread isn't about that. Plus, I am not a programmer, so I don't want to overstep my bounds.

It's significantly easier to port things on GSM versions of phones. We likely won't see it until at least Froyo is working on our devices, possibly later. This also shouldn't be in the Development forum...

I'd really like someone to help me understand (in noob terms) why porting is so hard for CDMA devices. Expect a thanks if you can explain it to me!

A thanks is what I am not after. It's that for anyone that has had this device since september this topic has been beaten to death.
Give this a read.
good day.

Well, thanks anyway. I haven't had the device since September.

I just wanted to remind anyone new to Fascinate Modding, that there is NO GINGERBREAD ROM for the SAMSUNG FASCINATE at this time.
So if you are itching to flash a ROM from a different phone. Please DO NOT BE MISLED by this thread and flash Gingerbread for a i9000.
You have a Galaxy S Variant, Not the Galaxy S phone.

Leaked gingerbread rom i9000
Don't know if this has been posted already but if you look into the development forum there is a leaked and confirmed 2.3.2 rom on the boards!! It has been found on a polish forum.
Is it possible to port this to our captivate ^^?
And once again, sorry if this has already been posted!

It has a new bootloader - be careful, if it is locked you may not be able to flash anything else . . . wait for confirmation.

woooow it looks like the real deal!
hope this could speed up cm7 development

Ok looks like a ton of these threads are poping up. Just a heads up guys. Attin has already warned to be careful as it may have a locked bootloader and once flashed there will be no turning back if it does

It almost looks like a dev release if you read on it says there is a missing shutdown animation, no other animations, and the market force closes

woo!!
we need a reoriented kernel before we can flash, correct?

Perhaps, but first we must find out if the bootloader is locked down...
Give it some time it looks buggy as hell

It's not like we have to do too terribly much to get this working. All the captivate specific stuff has been the same code changes through all the updates as far as I am aware. I'm completely psyched for this to happen though! I'm not a big fan of Cyanogen's UI and lack of google apps, so this is going to be awesome!

The i9000 folks say the bootloader is not locked, still has download mode working, so it's possible to go back. Not advocating anyone flash this, just reporting.
They also said Samsung stripped out the Gingerbread visual tweaks (like that screen off animation), which sucks. They also currently don't have root, so market fingerprint is not editable, and TiBu won't work.

This seems like a very early alpha. None of GB stuff (animations etc) are in and there are still a few issues.
This is step in the right direction, but lets hope we have another leak later on.

Hmm n here I been running CM 7. Its interesting how fast Samsung went to 2.3, can't wait to see what the devs do with this

A day or so of the ROM on the i9000 boards and those problems should be fixed. those guys are badasses!

I am the excite.
On a more serious note; I've seen multiple replies to the original thread saying that Download mode works.
This looks promising.
Edit: Lol I'm slow. I guess that's already been stated above. I had the reply window open for too long (;

Blurry Bread

Is anyone out there using Drod's blurrybread rom? If so, is the CRT animation enabled? Or can I just use the same file I used for the stock gingerbread for it?

Yes. Yes. and Yes it works well.. ..I'm not sure what file your referring to for stock gingerbread though.

I was refering to the zip file that I flashed to enable it for the stock gb but since it's already there I wont need it. I'll be flashing as soon as I can

+1 for blurrybread.
My only complaint so far, is my swype license doesn't want to stick around after reboots and has to be regenerated.

Oh ok. Well yeah if needed that can be flashed again.

anyone know if blurrybread is going to be updated to the official GB release? i really like it and don't really want to load the official until drod has had his way with it.

I could be wrong...but Im pretty sure drod said on twitter that hes developing solely for the thunderbolt now.

Yep or at least say "im moving on" or not working on it again in their thread damn .

well... that's a bumber. at least it didn't seem like he had done a ton with blurry bread anyway. hopefully someone with the skills will do the same. it was really just some "basic" tweaks to the base rom. nothing particularly major. i'd do it but don't have that level of skill... but surely someone out there will do something similar. i hope at least.

Nice! I'll try it tonight!

awesome. U r the man.
all the best bro

Looking forward to giving it a shot tonight. Always happy to see a new dev on the playing field. Thanks for the hard work!

Always nice to see new devs and roms. I will try it once the link is available for download. One question though, since I didn't see any screenie, pull down menu includes "vibrate" toggle or "flight mode"?

I am sure his OP is incomplete yet and he has to update it, even download link is stuck at 49 mins

Seeing as how we are waiting anyway, I figure I stray off topic and post a question to watsa...
How do you do it? I mean, honestly... You are even in other people's roms threads, being as generous as if they were your own...
Hats off. My wife would kill me if I were a third as dedicated as you are.

iluretar, fantastic work. Every since I flashed Watsa's version of JVS (the completely stock version) I have been in love with that ROM. So smooth and so stable. GPS works great on my Captivate and TouchWiz 3.0 is very smooth in this ROM. Not to mention faster data rates...
LOSTLOGIC's Epic ROM does a good job to make the ROM more captivate friendly, but I honestly am a big fan of the stock GB icons. So your ROM (on paper) fits the bill exactly.
Thank you far sharing with the community and I look forward to flashing your ROM. I'll report my experience with it.
You mention Sony Ericsson launcher is added, is TouchWiz still there too? If so, did you figure out how to set the homepage index. I tried every trick in the book (including editting the default.prop) with no success.
Thanks Watsa for sharing your knowledge. I plan on bouncing some ideas off you too once I do some basic research on ROM creation. Also DaGr8, I know you have contributed to the Rogers Captivate community in terms of ROMs and support. Props/thanks to you as well.
