[Q] Difference between official 2.2 and CM6

hey guys,
just wondering what all the hype is going on at the moment?
regarding the official 2.2 release i mean.
"CM6 final" has been out i think since september (i think) and that's froyo 2.2, so what's the deal or difference to the official 2.2? why is everyone freaking out and posting roms if CM6 has been available for quite some time now and CM roms offer way more functions, etc?
i don't get it, please someone lemme know why the official release should be any better?!
thx,
v.

Because Cyanogen, although talented, is still a hacker making a hack. Official ROMs can take advantage of the hardware better than any hack any day.

@ first two posters: wow, very informative, thank you.
@ last poster: thx. ok that makes sense. still doubt it though that a stock rom can compete with an overclocked kernel running at 650+mhz, rooted, brutmaps for international navigation,... just to name very few functions that unofficial roms feature.
i'll definetely try an official version as soon as there is a reliable version. to see if it has any advantage. we'll see.

I've tried a few different roms, including CM5 and CM6, and nothing is as fast or as stable as my oem 1.6, rooted w/universal androot and overclocked to 528mhz.
If you're gonna compare, don't compare a modded version of the official rom, use the actual official rom.

alright, I need some help now:
there are a couple different releases in the development section and I don't understand which one is the actual official one. so far there are 4 versions (here are the thread starters):
bladyle
amazinglarry311
dasunsrule32
crios
would someone be kind enough to give a quick explanation (not in detail) what the differences are and what rom is the closest-to-official?
are they all just work arounds to make the OTA release work on all htc magics and the cookers are trying different approaches? one is changing something with the spl, one is using a CM6 rom, one is taking files from different roms and using adb commands to set everything up,...
I'd appreciate some help!
thx,

thank you.
once again, you are very entertaining...
before asking questions i'm the first one to use the search function, believe me.
did you try yourself to see if you could get an answer to my last question?
if you come up with what i asked for then i'll shut up, otherwise you can of course continue to post intelligent answers like your last two.
greetz,

Wow! Two posts that are very useful and not just a total waste of space. What a helpful forum member!

hey bro... just my opinion... latest cm nightly 219 is just as quick as the official ota... i was comparing it side by side... i still choose rooted or official any day, because of the extra goodies it offers...
hit me up if u have ne other ?

Nice job Calkulin... I'm wondering if we can use the PCSCII.apk from the thunderbolt ROM to get all of those connection options? Maybe a few files /system/lib as dependencies but maybe?

Awesome job Calk! I was beginning to thing people have forgotten about it... Very much looking forward to the release!
Will you leave everything stock on it? It would be awesome to have a stock Thunderbolt ROM. Thanks for all your hard work

Thank you Mr Calkulin. It will be my pleasure to test this for you.

good **** Calk....

4G?
Calk,
the big question is, will 4G work on this rom? (or will it become like the DesireHD Rom?)...
for sure I would make the switch from evio 1.7.7 if 4G and most of the bugs are worked out....
Great Job man...

Hope this stays stock....

What does this PORTed ROM offer that the original doesn't?
And would it even WORK if it "stayed stock?" Isn't the point of a PORT that you make modifications to force it to work on a different platform? Thus... couldn't be stock.
Anyway... back to the original question... what does this bring to the table that custom EVO builds don't bring?

Can't wait is most things working

It's the new Sense and its made for CDMA so it should work better on our phones rather then the GSM ports.

Camera is not going to be easy fix from the looks of it as the libs cause the phone not to boot

base off of?
Is this base off of EViO 1.7.7????? or a whole new ROM all together?

Sweet news Calk, I hear this thing is a monster size wise, whats the partition & memory like running on a EVO??

No new Firmware roms in a while i miss the flashing

Hey everyone! its been a while since we have had a new rom. I am bored ^^ i have a flash addiction. when will we see some new roms again any rumours ?
Ive been checking in every day. but still no new one for weeks

+1 ... Me also...
Sent from my GT-I9000

At some point Samsung will decrease the pace of development of the firmware for the original i9000, since there are a lot of new devices in the Galaxy family and they will eventually be more concerned about fixing the latest models than giving support to an old model.
Maybe 2.3.4 will be the last Android version for this device, and though I think we will see some more firmwares with bug fixes, in the short term I believe the firmware development for this device will stall

yea.. I think sammy did great job though.
as long as they fix little bugs on jvq.
I would be happy with it without further upgrade to Ice cream.

try GalaxianEE kernel flash.. will keep u busy everyday.. n believe me.. u cant find flashing excitement elsewhere .. the best kernel improvement

I don't like to use any custom ROM and like to stick with stock ROM but use custom kernel, such as Galaxian and Speedmod.
I have to admit that both of this kernel are great and very satisfying for me.
Lately hardcore not update its kernel while luqiqq keep updating its galaxian kernel.
So give it a try

Move to CM7, new ROM every day...

Flash the new (darky 10.2 golden )
its the newest
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App

I don't understand why there aren't more truly custom roms like CM7 being developed rather than just themers like darkyy. Is it because its too difficult?

try the CM7 / MIUI roms....there are so many options to screw around with...you will never get tired.

Best x8 Rom And why

Hello people. I see so many Rom's on here and would like to know what is the best rom going and why. I have already installed some and find they iver lag my x8 out or temp brick it.
I am about to give XG!N LX V7 (STOCK.2.3.7) ago will see how things go.
I wanted to know on the 015 version of x8 how do you change the kernel so you can use more upto date ones.
What is the best kernel and rom you have found that work good as a pair and work good together. ???

When on GB I had GingerJHv5 on nAa kernel, it was amazing and much faster than GingerDx which I also had for much time. The only problem is that developing has stopped in GingerJH since well, there isn't so much to develop now in GB

SEMC Debrand Engine(alfs-CM7)because i love sony style:x

Thx for the support guys Is opening my eyes
Just some questions tho how do you get to upgrade kernels as some saying (nAa 11) I tried updating and flashing vernal with it and gets an error every time anyone got some links.

Here let me just explain it in four words. USE.THE.SEARCH.BUTTON UTSB for short there is already 200+ of these threads its only cramming up the forums:sly:

Well when you are new to this and search and finds no results that am looking ro is why i am posting and asking for support. Might be ok for you cos your smart or so but for me am learning

Have been using the GingerXperiaRay for quite a while, it's the best ROM I've used so far, no lags, no bugs, no restarts, perfectly smooth. For a note, I have tested almost all ROMs out there for the X8.

There are so many good roms here. For stock kernel:
Prime HD by Haka - fast and smooth. Good batery life.
GingerDX - this is one rom that is part of the History. As all Doixanh's work.
These 2 represent all the new CM7 can give to our X8. Very good performance.
Now , in my opinion, however, the best Rom (I have to underline the bias of this phrase, because the best represents only user's opinion, and not necesarily a fact) is one rom that behaves and scores better than the original, stock Rom.
This rom is FroyoPro by lrakkarl.
Cheers,

X8 DROID is the best!!
Best graphic performance, and no bugs

Anyone got any ideas
Edit error Fixed took some working and playing around but got it fixed

GingerDX with ALFS: it never give me problems, and is the fastest and completest ROM for X8

FroyoPro is the best and most complete Rom for the x8 at the moment. It also has the best battery life of any Rom I've seen. Trust me this is the best Rom.

Wow!!
Thanks for releasing this. I've been waiting for this.
Seems as fast as the original FXP release, nice work. And the camera/video is working.
It's been suggested to set the I/O scheduler to BFQ but from what I've tested the SIO is way faster.
There is not enough contrast to read the notification messages (white on light gray!!)
Is there an easy way to change the background color of the notification screen ?
