Cyanogenmod for Vibrant? How close are we?

I've been following the progress of the Cyanogenmod development for the Vibrant lately and it seems to be moving pretty quickly, i.e. there already booting into the main UI, I believe. Anyway, I'm still wondering if anyone out there has even a rough estimate of when it will be available for the Vibrant? Thanks in advance.

Some time in the near, or distant future. One of Cyanogens pet peeves are people asking when it will be there whenever they are able to get it done. All of the dev's have loved ones, jobs etc. We can give estimates all day long ranging from early September to late October/November. Sadly the only ones that do know would be Wes.

thanks for the reply, I know all of the devs have other obligations, i.e. there lives. I'm in no huge hurry for froyo, although it would be very nice, I'll just wait for the official update if it ever comes.

if you arent in a hurry for it then why are you asking for an eta? why dont you go and try to get it working? if you dont contribute anything dont expect stuff from people, no one owes you anything.

I obviously care, and I would like it soon, but I'm not going to hound Wes or any other devs about it, and I don't think posting a question in a thread counts. I'm not a dev and I can't code, so the best I can do is beta/alpha test, and if no one helps me that's perfectly fine.

*1 in the annointing. Cyanogen ftw..

lol nice I think were about 3 weeks away from a release considering we will get the update then, and the rest will follow after that ...

Man I really started one hell of a flame war here, lol .

Honestly Im in NO big hurry for CM6 to come to the Vibrant. I mean I have two other devices running CM6 so I'm enjoying the fact that Vibrant ROMs for now are something of a different nature.

While I understand no one wants to give an ETA, but it would be nice to know if it is 20, 50, 60 percent done for example.
I dont see the problem asking this question

Lol I was being flamed in the fm radio thread just shooting a suggestion. Can we get a rant and rave section and piss each other off. Personally im liking the TW ui. If any ROM comes out still holding the TW ui then ill be happy. Otherwise im just sticking to what I have.

What draws you to the UI? cause ADW has the sides scrolling option that TW does but you can use themes and such.

Ive seen the adw drawer. It is very similar and I like the convience of the scrolling bottom on the home screen. But im not too sure of stability. I heavily modded my g1. And from time to time I would get force closes. Im trying to minimize the mods on this phone. The adw drawer is not bad. But right now its not something I want on the phone
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App

The TW drawer is nice, on my phone ADW doesn't load right. When I first go to the tray it gets stuck in a loop where it keeps wanting to load the tray it just can't. After about 5 tries it usually loads. The stock icon's look better than the adw galaxy s theme, and even when I say use stock icons it doesn't use the phones stock icons.

aawww, I missed a flame war.
What's a good flame without little old me?
lol jp
I like TW too.
I like some of the samsung apps over the stock ones.
I'm not as interested in CM6 as I am in Froyo Period.
I would like to see a sense rom, but i doubt that will happen.

Thread closed and cleaned up.

Some news from Mr.bridman

The fact that ours is the only MDPI device on their means that he believes that Eris has potential. Its amazing how such a small phone could become so......awesome

Saw that to, but wasnt clear if it's Sense on 2.1 or 2.2

After reading the site and looking at his mockups and proposals I can say I'm fairly excited to see how this comes out. It could be a brand new face for the devs to use, especially if he allows it to be ultra flexible.
http://stevenbird.info/?p=18
Direct link to the proposed project as well as links to resources to find out more.

well, that looks cool. can't wait.

Yea this guys ideas seem sweet. The new Sense has alot of these ideas already in them and the rest are in the MIUI so it shouldnt be to hard for him to recreate them.
The new sense is really sweet but this sounds like it is goinng to blow it away......Im really excited and can't wait.

Cm7 progress

You can compile the cyanogenmod source. The build version is CM7 RC0.

Lol, it's harmless
Just look at the nexus one forum, full of cm7 nag-bang roms.
Its really not that hard to compile...I was just about to now that I see it works. I was doing it on my N1 for personal use (crack-fiend nightlies lol), and now that I have my Inc, I'm doing the same.

I follow what you're saying. What I meant to get across is that I would rather wait for someone else to release something.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App

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.
caveat emptor... i guess

Alright...yall are gonna have to fill me in (I'm brand new to the Inc and this Sub-Forum)...Who is jdkoreclipse, and why are you all talking so much trash about him?

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.

He's not part of the official team but he does make a useful commit or fix every now and then like me. I'm unfamiliar with the history of why people dislike him.m but let's not turn this into another flame war plz

I have been here when jdk started all his crap and drama but, don't forget he had a big hand in getting the camera to work on 2.3. He just tried to be a dev before he knew how. IM not defending him in any way, just stating an opinion.

If you build it yourself it will spew out a version that works with ext4 (and only ext4, there's no interchangeable solution yet). Don't even think of bothering Koush about it

Just got a Shift today!

Upgraded from a Hero, man the difference is out of this world. Been running jaybob's TeamHeroC rom on the Hero, and already rooted and flashed strapped's SupremeSense on the Shift
Loving this phone so far!
(Before anyone asks why I got the Shift and not anything newer it's because I'm with Credo Mobile, not Sprint, and this is the best Android phone they have at the moment. Still, it's a pretty awesome phone!)

Glad your enjoying the phone, and welcome to the community!
This is probably one of the better communitys of developers and users on XDA. although we do have little fallouts from time to time (were human right? )
Supreme Sense is a personal favorite of mine and as a themer thats where I put most of my work.
Im sure you'll be seeing me around the Theme & Apps Section.
Enjoy
Oh yea forgot to ask...
Why didnt you just get a better, newer phone instead of the shift? lol jk.
This is a beast of a phone

Welcome aboard man, you will see that the Shift should keep you more than happy when it comes to a phone, great camera pretty amazing performance and some of the best AOSP and Sense ROMS I have ran, I had an EVO and got rid of it when I broke it and ended up with a Hero then the Shift and I'm perfectly happy now that we have source for overclock and everything, I don't think I'll be "upgrading" anytime soon.

Glad to have you aboard. Great choice on the Shift. This device is seriously underated. You'll enjoy the Shift a lot.

WOW! Someone actually GOT A SHIFT! Congrats! You will love it. It's one of the best phones on the market.
May I suggest Supreme Sense or Cyanogenmod 7 as your roms of choice.
Join us in the IRC chat room and hang out with us.
Hope to see you around.

Thanks! I've already got Supreme Sense on it. I used CM and another AOSP flavored rom on my Hero for most of it's life, so digging on Sense right now. I'll probably flash CM at some point though, maybe if/when we get ICS
I'll definitely check out the IRC!

Thanks guys!

Thanks to mazwoz

So, I am a new user to XDA, but am by no means a newbie developer. PHP, PERL, C+, .net, powershell, you name it.
I wanted to give thanks to Mazwoz, as that poor soul has received the most ridiculous amount of trash talk for no reason. Also, a thank-you for his service (assuming he is enlisted and not a contractor).
Anyways, thanks to MazWoz for your work, and I hope that this silly 10 post minimum garbage goes away.
Otherwise, I guess I'll just post 10 more threads about how silly this is.
(Actually, I won't, but it made me feel better to say so.)
Mazwoz, if you happen so see this, I wanted to get you some information about a gallery issue I am having, I might have fixed it in a reproducible way.

I agree, even though he came out of nowhere with a rom, it turned out to be remarkably smooth for a first run ICS rom. Keep up the good work, man!

My first post here..but a long time reader and follower of many ROMs.
Thankyou MazWoz. Installed it and works awesome so far..Battery life is 30 hours and counting (on regular battery), and I am power user. Excellent work.!!
Waiting for your HW acceleration and Chrome fix.

Also would like to give big thanks to mazwoz... I've been using his ROMs for a few weeks now and they have been great daily drivers. I don't ever use 4g because for my experience its unreliable at best. Thanks for a great ICS rom and keep up the great work.

Just like the first one, I've been reading, reviewing and testing long before I decided to join. A lot of appreciation to any and all developers, I am running MazWoz 4.7...props sir!

+1 here! Been using this ROM since its stormy beginnings!
4.7 is the best yet!
Question for other 4.7 users, Google music suddenly incompatable?

Truth! MazWoz is the man!!
BTW, got out of the Army as an E-5..... WAY too many years ago....

Not a fan of the 10 post minimum either, but I do understand the reasoning behind it. Just started tinkering with roms, but MazWoz-Evo JB 4.1.2 is the best one I've seen so far. So I thought I'd throw my thanks into the pile too. Look for my comments on the rom page soon... Thanks Maz!

MazWoz JB B3
I wanted to post a comment to the official development thread, but I couldn't. I have so far only been lurking in the shadows and not participating in the conversation so I'm nowhere close to the ten post minimum, even though I've been frequenting those pages for years!
I've been flashing my phone ever since my first Droid Eris had 1.6, and I've been running Maz's Jelly Bean ROMs since B1. This most recent release is (obviously) the most stable and fastest I've seen yet, and that goes for ANY JB ROM. I've tried a few, but Maz is the best. So the real reason I wanted to post was...
I want to thank MazWoz for spending so much time working on this. You have managed to breathe new life into my old-ass phone (not to be confused with my old ass-phone). Google Now is amazing, I love the new alarm clock, and the SPEED, man! Blistering!!
With B2, I was having a lot of issues when I'd open an app and it would freeze and reboot, but so far that seems to have been resolved. This ROM is so much smoother and faster in general, I don't even know where to begin singing your praises. If I could ask one favor, please include the option to center the clock in the status bar in your next release! I know you're already working on fixing the camera screen, so in summary:
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK, AND THANK YOU!!! [cue applause]

Wow I remember when this thread was first started loll
