"Samsung has just released the source code of their new I9100 Galaxy S II Android flagship. This will presumably open the floodgates and custom ROMs and kernels for the extremely popular device will now start appearing at a rapid speed."
Awesome!
Nice post
THX for posting!!!
So I guess some devs can strip all the useless Samsung stuff from these?
Well, whatever cool stuff they want I suppose

are the devs waiting for the source code or the kernel? I saw a article online and how to get the ics source code not sure if it can be any help if it will i will get the link for it.
It's my understanding that they are waiting on the drivers for the cameras. Those are really the only things that don't work. Try one of the CM9 Kangs or AOKP, they are both awesome.
ics
well i would give them a try but the wife uses camera alot so im in the waiting section.but good that soon we will have ics one way or another

ICS isn't the problem--everyone can get that; it's Samsung's proprietary drivers for the GT10.1. They've managed to recreate all of them except the camera. I think they've decided that reverse-engineering the camera driver would be too much work considering that 1) Samsung will release it soon; and 2) it's not necessary for getting the tab to work. So when Samsung releases the ICS update I'll bet we'll have a working camera within 48 hours.
Hello Folks,
I am a Recognized XDA Developer and I work on Cyanogenmod for Samsung Galaxy SL I9003 which is an exact similar device to Galaxy Tab P1010 (TI OMAP3630).
We have got fully working CM9 and CM10 on Galaxy SL, with few minor issues with video recording and laggy interface. However, we are working on porting the new 3.0.8 kernel that was released on omapzoom. This new kernel would help us resolve issues that we have been affecting ICS and JB releases.
So far, we have managed to get the kernel booting with few basic stuff like Touchscreen, Panel, Audio, Keypad, Vibrator working. Galaxy SL is exactly similar to Galaxy Tab P1010 WIFI and it essentially shares the same kernel and I suspect that most of the userspace stuff also should be the same. I was informally asked by cdesai if I was interested to develop for this device, but I had to turn my back since I wasn't really having the time for it.
However, since we are working on a new kernel for Galaxy SL from scratch, I would really like to take the initiative of making something useful for P1010 too, keeping in mind the small user base for Galaxy SL, we thought our work could be useful for P1010 and would benefit more people.
We would like developers working on P1010 to come forward and let us know the current status of development on this device (Kernels, Custom Roms, Attempts at CM, etc), so that we could plan something accordingly. Also, we would be interested to know how many people actually own this device and would like to have CM over it. Let's use this topic as a playground!

Thank you!
Let's do it people, I'm willing to help dhiru as well.
I'm in too

This is fantastic news, and thanks for considering the P1010 as everywhere else I've looked hasn't really got anywhere. While I'm afraid I won't be able to help with any of the development (I wish I could, but I'm too busy as it is), I can use my device for testing. Keep it up, and I can't wait until it's all sorted.
Personally, I'd love to have any version of CM on this tablet, as Android 2.3.6 is looking really dated now, and the interface is laggy compared to that of Android 4.1 devices. I've upgraded to CM10 on my Galaxy S and it's so much smoother than it was, I can only hope the same is possible for this device, as it's certainly capable.
Also, I know Motofoca over on the MadTeam forums was working on it (which you already know, most likely), but he's not mentioned anything towards progress in a while. I can't post a link though, considering I've got less than 10 posts, so you'll have to google it.
Any help I can give is gladly offered, now when it comes to coding I am rusty... In fact I think the rust has extra layers of rust but know what I am looking at and can spot the bugs and offer suggestions.
I have two of these and still think the actual build of them is excellent so would love to have some decent internals

Seems like there are not many who own this device. That's sad.

I'm owning a P1000 too (as per the question of the OP) and I would really like to have a current CM 10.1 release with kernel 3.0 on it... I'm a java developer with some C++ background but I didn't have the time yet to dive into android development (neither high nor low level)..
If there is anything to test or provide info about just ask..

I don't know whether this was a typo or not, but you can get CM10 or CM9.1 (stable) for the P1000 already. Just look on the cyanogenmod site for the P1. This is for the P1010 which is the WIFI only version of that tab and doesn't yet have a release of cyanogenmod for it.

Hi, I have it. I also have some experience with kernel on Omap4 (I developed for 3.0.x and 3.2.x), but very little time to share at the moment.
Please post here in this thread any update or request.
Thanks
P1010 here also. Plenty of processing power and a website for storage and distribution...

I'm also willing to test. These tabs are great, just not many developers working with them.
p1010 with cm10
Looking forward to trying their huge creations from Ecuador ... CMs for the P1010, do not let this device die. Sorry for my English, I hope this well written ..
Hello guys, I also have a P1010! maybe I can help you as a tester, I have experience with flashing and rooting
Hey all
Does anyone know if MIUI is going to release a version for the GS4?
CM already told they will NOT be adding any roms for the GS4, so MIUI is my last hope..
Maybe someone made an unofficial release of MIUI-Like rom?
Thanks
This is where owning the I9505 instead of the I9500 becomes a big advantage for people who like non-stock bulds like MIUI, CM and AOKP. Because, unlike Exynos, it's based upon an open-source architecture, it doesn't take much to convert builds to it from other devices. This is shown by the fact there is already a working CM10.1 build for it, created by someone who doesn't even own the phone.
As for the I9500, I'm sure someone will take the challenge up that the official CM team are passing up on. It will just take longer to appear and won't run as well. I don't know the score with MIUI and whether they will bother, time will tell.
But didn't I hear that the official CM team might be having a change of heart? It was back in March when they first said they would pass up on the GS4.
EDIT -- https://www.facebook.com/miuiromchina saying they won't support it for now. Not sure if that will change or if someone else will take it upon themselves to overcome the challenge of developing it for a closed source chipset.

Codeworkx and Faryaab are working on the i9500.
I thought I read about a change of heart, like I said. Surprised about Coderworkx though, all the signs were that he had given up on Samsung for good. Have you got a link with confirmation that he is working on the S4? And with the I9505 being the official North American device I'm sure an official build of that will arrive soon enough.
The Samsung devices I currently own (i9100, i9100g, i9300, i9305, t0lte, p5100) are the last ones i will officially support. Some of them might be dropped with the next big android release. Yes, i’ll NOT touch the Galaxy S 4 and whatever comes after it.

Yes, things doesn't look too good for the i9500

So there's a chance after all :angel:
Hi there!
Currently thinking of grabbing a Oppo Find 5, but I won't make the same mistake again I did with the Galaxy S2 - updates, quite no doc/source for custom ROMs etc.
So, how open is the Oppo?
I see, that CM has landed, but how much is open sourced or are at least the interfaces docuemented?
Thanks for clarification!
Didn't find much on that subject...

almost everything is open.CM10.1 took less than a month to move from alpha to nightly.The other AOSP and AOKP roms took just days.It's an open device with source available!!

Thanks for the fast reply!
Could you give me some details on what is open/working and what gives us trouble?
I assume that the sound part is difficult to get by, as they claim to have some Dirac HD licensed - given I don't know Dirac HD and their licensing policy...

Do note that two former GS2 CM maintainers have this device, and we both like it.
The real key is that it's Qualcomm-based (qcom has excellent documentation), and Oppo doesn't deviate far from Qualcomm's CAF reference sources.
We also now have access to a technical contact who can answer some questions for us - many of the camera issues in CM should have been improved last weekend thanks to a tip from Oppo.
For me right now, the big question is how hard it is to get to the UART port of the device, since I think I'm going to need it for an upcoming effort.
its been over 6 months, and shi*** samsung has never released any of exynos 5's source code.
when it will be finally released?
and when will properly CM roms be released? there are few CM/AOSP roms but they all full of bugs, ditched and not updated, and not ready for daily use
thanks
?????????????????????
1) Ask Samsung. How would anyone here know ? Anything anyone here says is an uneducated guess at best. Samsung has always dragged the chain with regard to releasing sources, and this isn't going to change anytime soon. And they're only required to release the 'open source' stuff anyways, most of the proprietary stuff never gets released (so needs to be 'hacked'/reverse engineered) & probably never will be.
2) Re: CM, ask the CM team/ask in one of the CM threads ?
You must be new here.
