Doubt it is anything... probably samfirmwares trying to get some traffic.
Downloading now...I don't expect anything special but we will see.
is this not the rumored model number of the nexus S?
disappointed to hear its still using RFS... so here's hoping that's either untrue or it /isn't/ the nexus S firmware.

Also, you need to make sure your distro supports UBIFS. It's a rather *new* file system format but from what I have heard Fedora 11 does.. have to redownload my copy though ;/

you also need mtd utils, most distros support this as well, but here is the git if your distro doesn't support it out of the box: git://git.infradead.org/mtd-utils.git

curiosity almost killed this cat. had flashed that numnut's rom (because I am an idiot) - the rom would not install (aborted on some issues, typical of jd) and after that none of the nandroids would restore either - they would abort at restoring system - tried a few things then did a battery pull and thankfully it seems the nandroid is restoring now.

Long story short, he f'd up on here too many times and has a permanent ban. He was given enough (more than enough actually) chances. He played the role of a dev with a serious lack of knowledge putting other peoples property in danger by doing so.

Has a loooooooooooooooooooong history of stepping on the toes of the CM team, team douche, and any dev he can steal work from. Check out his website. Shameless.
He's out for the donations, that's about it.
I downloaded and tried to run 'CM7'. There was a few errors upon flashing and a few things didn't work and lots of functionality was missing. I restored my nightly #184 w/ invibilek #18. Thanks for the headsup.
Hi all! New to the forum, but not android in general. And am eager to dive into the clockwork behind this phone, and what makes it tick. Also, on the wife's Aria.
Anyway, I've had android power for about a year and have known about the Cyanogenmod rom since cm5. And judging on how much buzz there was around cm6 coming out, it seems to me we would've heard a little more about cm7 being released til now, IMO. Now, I may be wrong, and if so I apologize, but I think the main man himself would've waited til a stable RC, then come out with it across the board, not a nightly "progress" build so everyone can flash into a bootloop. That's what rom manager pro is for!
Besides, tonight is the first time I've heard of cm7. I may be way over the line, I apologize in advance. After we all do have opinions...
Sent from my Incredible using XDA App
There is a difference between compiling the most recent source code on github (RC0), and an official release. Anyone can compile, but only the CM team can release stable RCs (RC1 and up) and final builds.
CM7 isn't really CyanogenMod yet, as we know it on CM6. All of the little goodies are yet to be merged, it's mostly just an effort to get supported devices stable at Gingerbread. I'm running it on my nexus, and it's pretty sweet.
Oh, I understand. I knew I should've kept my mouth shut, lol. Nevertheless, I'm not flashing any gingerbread til its further along, I.e. optimizing not stabilizing. Who knows when that'll be though. I think I'll just wait til it officially drops.

I guess I don't get what you are trying to show me here. He is comparing two different devices, running two different OS's. To support the title of your post you would have had to show me two Epic's, one with Froyo, one with Eclair. Also would have had to shown two Epic's, one with Froyo RFS and one with Froyo EXT4.
Irrelevant... both phones shown are not Epic.
Note: I don't care if the Nexus S is similar to the Galaxy S series, its not it, im sure there is a lot more under the hood they ain't talking about....

^^^ comparison fail!
Worthless video as it does not directly relate to the Epic 4G.
Fascinate = Keyboardless Epic right? Pretty much. Fascinate runs RFS, Nexus S has stock Android 2.3 and whatever it's file system is. Look at them, neck and neck with those few comparisons.
Anyway, I tried. Continue *****ing.
Also, he kills ALL of the background crap on the fascinate, and NOTHING on the Nexus S. The stock task killer on the the galaxy devices does not show like 99% of what is running in the background. You cant run ATK on one device and not the other.

Yea this is exactly what I was thinking. I spent the whole video trying to figure out A) what this had to do with the epic and B) what it had to do with quadrant. Furthermore the only time the fascinate 'beat' the Nexus S was the Angry birds, with everything else I saw it load faster, mind you only marginally. Still as other have pointed out there is no Epic comparison so its rather irrelevant.
Finally, on the topic of Quadrant: if one runs Standard it provides no valuable information, just a visible 'epeen'. If one runs Advanced it offers a break down that can be used as a comparison tool.

I think what the OP is trying to show is that the Epic with 2.1 Eclair and RFS is almost exactly the same as 2.3 Gingerbread which uses Ext4 so how much difference is Froyo going to make (other than getting flash)
This has already been compared to the Epic. They got a vid where our epic killed the Nexus S.... Well not necessarily killed but http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cFAYWyVcj0Q&feature=youtube_gdata_player

Not sure if I know what I am doing, but when the poop hits the propeller, I have never had to build source that wasn't already at least somewhat modified for my device.
I got all the proprietary stuff, the countless extra common additions, and now it seems I have to go find all the hardware build parts missing because all we got was a nexus layout and dashed hopes of much more.
It may or may not be realistic to just merge in the missing parts, but at least it is a good start. Everything is configured to work, it just wants some stuff I am still downloading.

I will post every detail I can, but I will admit a lot of it is currently mixed in with DHD and Dinc, as we have been working as one team instead of separate devices. I will make a point to link up what has been going on soon. That was overlooked on my part.
The builds in the first post are functional, but the version being built from source should not and will not be a [email protected]$$ rip -off of another device. That is costing time...

While I do not always agree with the Mods on this forum, I have been in contact with the one keeping a watch over this forum and he has a good understanding of what is and isnt relevant. He responded to make a valid point because a lot of the posts that have been removed are the direct result of not reading the first post. There have been MANY posts throughout the entire site pushing for releases only days after the initial release of a partial source.
