Thanks ...I think its a good idea to have one location to look for updates and discuss. Thank you for making this rom for the nexus s! (Just kidding! Too soon?)
Sent from my Google Nexus S using xda premium
Too soon, too soon xD
good idea with this thread
haha yeah maybe your right that its to soon, but i read that drew (yes THAT drew) is getting out his update soon and miui also said that theyd have ics soon so i figuered better to soon than to late! ;D
i really want a full build!!! hardware acceleration is what i want but can't try in the sdk port ><
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
yeah, good idea mate..
hoping that this thread will not go under in discussions who has stolen the rom from who and so on.. simply updates - no discussion from who and why and how.
actually I run the ics port b12, quite good, only the market update crash-issue is ugly .. let's hope and wait for the devs to get ICS sooner mostly stable
i was using b12 as well, but then i swiched back to gb miui because of the market, whatsapp, sms (maximaum one page) and all the fcs...
but i fell madly in love with ics and i keep looking for roms for the nexus s all the time! ;D
I think drew should just upload now... he can get out the stable version later!
I have to satisfy my lust for ics! ;D

Way to go OP. I was following other threads here and, like many, I find it hard to find an update on what's happening without searching the internet up and down. Those other threads became laughable. Why would anyone send you hate mail for hopefully clarifying things with a consolidated thread. Good to see this.
Sent from my Google Nexus S
Where, oh where, is our nexus s ics update? Any release date rumour?
Anyway, good thinking. Feels good to have a topic to go to.
koush's ROM seems doing fine except for camera and wifi according to him.
i hope he shares it soon eventhough it's not fully functional.

There will not be a stable ROM until the source is released. Not the source for the Galaxy Nexus but the actual source. That will happen when the OTA is released for your NS most likely. CYANOGEN will wait for real source as will the MIUI team.
You will see some adapted and modded ROMs based on the Galaxy Nexus code. Most likely they will have modified GB kernels I believe.
I would not be surprised to see OTAs for NS right after the Galaxy Nexus hits stores in the US, definitely b4 Christmas.

Say what you want about drew but at least he had no problem releasing half busted roms. Now that people are making source roms we are begging for them to at least give us a half busted rom while we wait but no one will ugh! I don't care if just the camera and wifi don't work! That's leaps and bounds above what were used to!

So you mean that google only released the source for the Galaxy nexus and not the actual source code for ICS 4.0? have they ever done that before?
There is samsung's ics for galaxy s 2, so is it possible to port it to sgs?
http://www.sammobile.com/2011/12/14/exclsuive-android-4-0-1-by-samsung-for-sgs2-custom/
There are only few features what can be ported to i9000 cause of reallly diffrent pcb used in sgsII.. more realiable is using sources from nexus S when they will be avaible... also if samsung is working on ics for sgsII they can use their resources to made rom for i9000 preaty fast.. and here is one more thing samsung not forgot about us cause of relasing few new roms in past month even yesterday xD
Ok, thanks for your answer. Let's hope that nexus s ics sources comes out soon.
We have ufficial ics from samsung

there are already very good ports by team hack sung, why bother with those other ones?
Nexus S also as not received the official ICS yet, their ICS ports are weaker than the i9000 ICS ports
quite offtopic answer but team hack sung could make their build more modern.. that means go step further and dont using old kernel resources 2.6.35/7 and go direct to kernels 3.0.8... (they need to port drivers to new api anyway) only nikademus pawtip onecosmic AFAIK(I'm new here in i9000) trying to do sth with it... but i know that kerels 3.0.x works with less laginnes after some time,, its may be cause of many junks and workarounds in obsolete 2.x.x kernels.... thats my point
Yeah as said the ICS builds posted in the Android Development forum would be much better than bloated touchwiz ICS. If you have problems with bugs it's best to be patient until they are fixed.
Hey guys.
I saw this thread that shows how to make the multitasking of ics to look like sense.
It would be nice if anyone could port it to our device.
The original thread is here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1589963
try this one, it works also on aokp based Roms for galaxy s.
Thank you very much.
Good thing is, i'm using the aokp rom too.
Edit: Tried it and it doesn't work. :/
Hi all!
As you may know, or don't know, MIUI China has launched a poll on Facebook which device we want to have MIUI V4 on next. Although the requirements say that they will only port it when ICS is available from manufacturer, I personally think we might make a chance because we already have CM9 running on our device. They could take it as a base to port MIUI V4 officially to our SGS.
Like their page on Facebook and vote for our beloved Samsung Galaxy S!

Their rules are very strict . They have already said no to MIUIv4 on sgs many times.

after using AOKP roms i think i will never using miui :
1-AOKP have more customization
2-until now not stable at all even the official build(on my s2) AOKP more stable
3- themes is coming now to cm9 and aokp so no need to miui
4-aokp had official support to sgs miui not
5-battery is better on Aokp roms or cm9
6-do u want more
I voted because hey, the more options the better right, but apparently they have said no a few times and i personally prefer a more AOKP/AOSP rom to MIUI. That said, im not writing miui off, it looks pretty good
miui has out to sgs ;> Samsung Galaxy S
Android: 4.0.4 / MIUI: 2.5.11
I agree to the part that miui is the smoothest of 'em all. Some special system in their framework. Nova launcher is a treat to use on miui.
SGS is voted on second place. This shows how many ppl are still using our phone.

Hey guys. So if someone can make a framework ui modded theme for purity and stock roms, can any talented and generous dev make a mod type flashable theme for AOSPA roms? Like PA original, PA by gnome and PA by David? Well they all are PA. Really would be helpful since this rom does not come with a theme chooser.
My request is for the devs who can pull out something like the one made for purity rom.
Thanks. (hopefully)
