Does anyone know what EI22 could even potentially bring to the plate that the good devs haven't already achieved through stabilizing EH17?

An official build, newer files to work with. Whether people believe it or not EH17 has many outdated bits and pieces which makes certain things involving CM and or MIUI rather annoying to try to fix, when we can't have anything newer to work off of. It could me a stable build altogether or it could be worse, but it'd have newer things to test with.
EH17 is far from "stable"...

Here ya go.
There's a comparison.
Since there is no EI22 and no changelog....no way of knowing. When an OTA hits or another phone besides "Lonny's" gets it, no way of knowing.

Since none of us have seen EI22 yet, I doubt there is an answer. It's possible that all that has changed is the kernel, and we have what we think is a current kernel so there are no changes.
It's possible that there is a newer better modem that uses less battery and gets better signal. They may have better drivers or more bug fixes in apps.
We'll have to wait and see.

Recent testimonials say that there are daily drivers for EH17 where there are zero reboots and great GPS. Sounds a lot more stable than stock if you ask me.

Yup, I'm running "stock" EH17 with mkasick's source compiled kernel and the GPS fix that is floating around. No reboots, no problems, great battery life. It's got to be close to what we are getting EI22

No it is perfectly stable with the new kernels from source release. The other stuff are enhancements. How is OC ever considered a stability fix? GPS works fine too. Just Moar's file makes it better. Solid as a rock with any ROM and new kernel...period.

Not really, sleep bug is still present. If you leave wimax on and turn the screen off for more then 3 minutes wimax should be disconnected (and it may or may not find another wimax signal).

Not to my knowledge. It's a .35 and .37 kernel issue. Could be a mixture of both though.
Wondering if anyone has a solid gingerbread rom out there they could recommend to me for install? Hopefully something that doesn't kill my battery too fast.. I have a vibrant and would be willing to test it out even. Let me know...thanks!

None of the Gingerbread ROM's are stable yet. They still have a lot of bugs and battery life isn't where it should be.
I downloaded Atriarc last night and it seems pretty darn stable to me. I was running the Overstock kernel without issue until this morning when my flashing addiction flared up and I decided to try the Tiger Blood kernel. That ran fine for about an hour and then started soft rebooting constantly. I just flashed back to Atriarc and all is well. I have to say I've had exchange issues with email up until this rom, none now.
Atriarc isn't a gingerbread rom.
I just installed Whitehawkx's Gingerbread beta 3. So far it seems like I can use it as a daily driver. Some small issues, of course, but overall good.
White's is better than CM7 for now, better battery life and overall more stable.
Trigger, Atriarc, SweetHoney are my favs besides CM7
CM7 is amazing if you know how to customize it.
I get 14+ hours of battery life on it, not too bad, considering I get home before that and could just charge it.
It's very snappy and oh, no touchwiz, ftmfw.
Sure, GPS doesn't work, but who cares? Mapquest that ****.
Data seems to work fine.
I dun know, but for me, it's a great ROM and it's worth it.

I agree.
I'm running cm7 nightly from the 12th and after messing with it i'm pretty content. I know everyone's opinion of smooth is hugely subjective but please believe me when I say that I have mine running as smooth as the seemingly accelerated Touchwiz roms. I'm one for smooth transitions and scrolling and this so far is keeping me content.

Eugene's Gingerbread clone R2 final
Hi, I'm on CM7 and it's great. It's very snapy and the web brouser is the fastest of any rom I have tested. I don't see why people say the GPS does not work. It's never worked as well as it's working now. The lock on the GPS is very fast and very good. The compas works aswell but it does not point to north. There are a fiew games that FC on CM7 but most of them do work well. I would say that it is now very close to being a daily use rom and I'm running it on an I9000m with 850mh radio working perfectly. I just added flash 10.2 and it works very fast aswell.
so far? there is only 2, well officially in this forum and the second you have to get from bonsai website.
any developers working on something?
I have eb13 with ec05 modem, works nice but alot of latency for some reason...
anyhow can some developers post up some projects that they are working on currently?

It's in the works. Cmenard has fixed rainbows (proof). (He's a frackin' beast). White has all his magic done on it. I'm the only failure! I can't get the damn GPS to work.
So yeah, that's all we're missing. Vibrant uses a different GPS binary to communicate with the hardware versus other phones like I9K and Cappy (we're the ONLY phone that does this, BS right?). I've been working with cmenard to even build a custom kernel to call that binary just like the 2.2 ROMs and still nothing. I think I'm either missing something extremely simple, or it's not possible. Eugene is smarter than me so hopefully he figured something out.

Yeah, I think so too. The kernel will allow all those things to be fixed, but some things will take longer to develop than others. Like even though the kernel doesn't automatically fix EH17 bugs or turn into EXT4, I'm positive you'll see kernels that fix EH17 bugs as well as EXT4 converted.
My question? Does this mean wimax in cm7 or is that still samsungs private code?

If someone could please clarify the following questions:
1) What exactly does the Epic 4g need that it does not have to run the latest cyanogenmod with full functionality?
2) I assume this source code release does not directly help in implementing cm7. Is that correct?
3) What are the prospects of the Epic 4g being a fully supported cm7 phone sometime in 2012?

Okey doke, I've got you.
1) Well for the longest while we've needed an AOSP kernel based on our kernel which we didn't have source to. A GB kernel with source which of course we had gotten due to Mkasick, Rodderik, Jt countless others. As well as a close to official build of CM7(7.1) which is also greatly made possible due to Decad3nce and Jt, and countless others. We're closer because they were coding in the dark kernel wise before now. And Samsung released their official build as well. (Damn you Samsung)
2) It does help, because they now have a basis to work off of to try to get an AOSP kernel which may take time, but we've some of the most talented Rom developers and kernel developers working together to do this.
3) It could happen befoe 2012, there isn't an eta we can give for something such as this when the catalyst we've needed for months has finally been given to us.
I hope I was of some help. If any more questions ask me I'll gladly answer.

Wait, wait, wait, we never covered the essential question:
Can the source enable my phone to make coffee?
It does: have a cute name called source
It does: have the ability to be downloaded, its available right now.
It does: happen to be something everyone's always asked for.
It does not: help you walk your dog.
It does not: improve your Call of Duty skills
It does not: like the fact that I'm making jokes about it.
K'done .

I see I don't understand the basics of what's going on here.
We've had Froyo source for months, but that was not AOSP?
Or have Samsung/Sprint released something with Gingerbread that they did not release with the Froyo source?
Am I understanding correctly that there are now no remaining structural obstacles and implementing CM is just a matter of development time?
Another question: What is the advantage of cyanogenmod over the stock and custom roms already available for the Epic 4g, meaning what will be better once CM7 is running?

Okay, Ill try to help.
Froyo was AOSP
No, Froyo source came out late with GB was "right around the corner". So development stopped waiting for GB source.
Yes
CM7 = profit.

Define "Amazing", Plus CM7 doesn't has TW and has audio issues... I'm not trading one hiccup for another...

Amazing- (adj.)to amaze.
CM7 will not have TW since uh duh it would ruin the whole "AOSP" aspect, and it is an alpha build, its not going to be perfect, yet.

Riiiiiiight....and for someone to say CM7's GPS is amazing and then I load it and get 3 satellites out of 9 to lock means his definition of amazing is WAY THE HELL OFF!!!
If people are going to endorse a ROM at least be truthful to it's claims....</SNARK>
