CyanogenMod 9 in the works!!!! With Ice Cream sandwich! - HTC Aria General

http://www.engadget.com/2011/11/16/ice-cream-sandwich-based-cyanogenmod-9-in-the-works-slated-for/
Hmmm...I wonder if this will be available for our baby Aria....

.
Dont be too hopeful. Google said that ICS wont be available for Nexus One and that's a more powerful phone than the Aria. Maybe they lack manhours to do it, but in that case, we would need a big Dev backing up the Aria, and since it aint such a popular phone...

Unfortunate truth...I was surprised we got support for CM7 to be honest. I suppose no ICS for me until April (or later if I decide to wait for a certain phone)

Way too early say absolutely, but I doubt very much that ICS will not be properly ported to msm7227 devices - including Aria.

Then again, one thing is to be ported, another differently is that it runs smoothly, aye?

I have already ported the ICS, but the HTC Aria slows as everyone else!

It should help.

i think, kernel not stable! But still try!

I'm sure there will be a stable ics rom for the aria even if its not cm9. I have a very early one on my aria atm which runs well. Its not my everyday phone so idc that it does not have mobile or wifi lol. I just wanted to play around with ics.

IMO the sense 2.1 + 3.0 rom is more resource intensive than an aosp build of ICS. We'll see a smooth port on the aria, I'm sure of it. Not supporting the N1 was a business decision on Google's part not to support legacy hardware.

Really? I think with CM7, the Aria still has a lot of juice left.
I still cannot justify an upgrade at this point, even if we do not get CM9 or another ICS port.

Concur!! Still like the smaller phones with a very versatile functionality. Would liike to see ICS on this fine phone, but will still keep the ARIA if that never transpirers.

Gingerbread instead of froyo?

hey guys what if the reason we haven't got our froyo is because e are getting gingerbread instead? Google just announced that gingerbread is filly cooked and that is planning to released ASAP.

No, we're getting Froyo ... beta has already leaked if you haven't noticed. Official version from Samsung / Sprint should be out sometime in the near future. Don't get your hopes up with Gingerbread because we won't see that on the Epics for quite a while.
Yep. Like I said in the froyo leak forum, any person phone-geeky enough to be hanging out in XDA will probably have a different phone by the time Gingerbread hits the Epic.
However someone did make a good point in that the Nexus S will have gingerbread and since that's a Galaxy S phone it will hopefully be easy to port over to the Epic.

That was me who said that, and I haven't yet seen anyone argue that it wouldn't be possible....
While the coming update is undoubtedly Froyo, I think it's only a matter of time before we'll have 2.3. Considering the new Nexus is the "Nexus S" from Samsung and looks to basically be another Galaxy S variant, I think ports will happen.
The Nexus S is not a CDMA phone so the port will take a bit or time, unless the 2.2 kernel works out of the box with 2.3.
It's possible but don't expect instant gratification.
Also shouldn't this be in general?

Honeycomb is going to be 3.0
Epic experience + Phoenix kernel + Emotionless beast = Great functionality, Exceptional battery life, and Sweet eye candy.
2.3 would have to be released to the devs at the handset manufacturers so they could customize it for their phones (load it with their crap bloatware, custom interface, etc.....). As we have seen, that takes time (2.2 has been out for a while now). If we were to see 2.3, it would probably be 6 months from now, about the time 2.4 or 3.0 (they should call it Poundcake.....good name, and good Van Halen song) is coming out.
I don't think our handsets will ever see 2.3 at this rate. It will be another year into the future before we see it, and by then our phones won't even be powerful enough to make phone calls.
Oh we will definitely see 2.3 on the epic even if it has to be unofficially brought to us ;-)

This is exactly why I am so excited about the Nexus S. In the same way that the Nexus One gave the Incredible, the Evo 4G and the other HTC devices amazing hacking potential, the Nexus S will make our Galaxy S phones way way better.
More developers will be working on this platform, and we will have all the google stuff working on hardware that is 99% the same. Really, the only thing different will be the CDMA/4G radios, but that is just minor stuff since that is the only difference between the Nexus One and the Evo. Also, the Epic Experience ROM is full of stuff taken off of other Galaxy S devices and it all works great.
Also, I'm going to say that this phone is not dual core. It might have a 1.2ghz hummingbird, but thats the only thing that might be different. It might also have some filesystem stuff that is different but we can hack around all of that. Hopefully it is using the same GPS chip though, because Google will then really light a fire under Samsung to make sure they fix it once and for all.

The older the hardware is, the less likely it is that people will stick around working on it. Also be aware that most of your list is made up of non-devs.
Most people who worked on Dream have gone to VISION. At some point, you should consider the fact that although Dream was a revolutionary piece of hardware, it is now OLD.

a perfect, working cm6.1 with the ram upgrade and no battery issues, etc. would be the ultimate rom for g1
Well, the Vogue has been out for a looong time and it still is in support (miraculously).
What annoys me about the G1 is the stupid chin lol
The G1 still gets more rom development than the G2 (although it's started to even out). Maybe some devs are leaving, but there are plenty left.
P.S. Thank you devs for all your work

G1 has the best support ever from devs and it should as it's the OG android device of them all. I will probaly check out the lg optimus2x or htc pyramid next as I believe those are the game changers that will have the same/hopefully better support even then g1.

Last time I tryied Ginger Yoshi the phone was unstable, slow and most of the time the notification bar crashed, the work the developers are doing is great but it's true the G1 is old and lacks, a lot, ram.
I will stick to my G1 for some time, I was thinking in getting a SGS which are cheaper now, but I'm not very sure about the community support. The G1 is great and will be great for some time.

CM7 for ATRIX 4G before SGS2

I bet if we all came together, we can get Cyanogenmod on the ATRIX 4G before the SGS2. I know some devs will be receiving a few ATRIX to begin development.
I'm up for a $50 donation for the dev to release CM7.
I'm sure others are willing to donate also so we can all have CM7 on our great phone!
Cheers,

Given how many "Atrix sucks, SGSII!" (or other comparable phone) threads that seem to appear, us getting CM7 first would make my day.
The person who maintains the official Droid CM7 port is getting an Atrix, so we'll definitely be getting it at some point.
i'll chip in $20 if we can get the atrix as an official CM device
Count me in!
Please dont flame me on this. Atrix is my first smartphone i have learned alot since I first had it but im still a noob. Based on your experiences with CM7, what are the noticeable benefits of CM7 compared to stock?

I've been a fan of CM since the G1. It made it run like the n1 when it first came out lol pretty much. I have only tried beta CM7 when it first came out on the mytouch 4g so i probably have missed out alot, thats when i went to WP7 lol.
seeing as how samsung sent them an sgs2 I highly doubt it'll happen
Sent via the power of a unicorn's horn.
I'm getting my Atrix on Tuesday. I just switched over from Tmobile, figured i'd sign as a free agent before i got traded. Had an awesome MyTouch 4g. In my honest opinion it is sooo much better to have a dev create a build solely for your phone rather than go with CM. It's like being in a classroom with thousand's of students instead of being in a classroom with 10. You get much better support, quicker updates, and a better overall experience. Don't get me wrong, CM is great but I went with TeamRoyal who was only doing work on the MyTouch and they had 2.3.4 out quickly with Netflix working before CM was anywhere close to it. So i hope there is a Dev for the Atrix that is going to be working full time on a rom rather than waiting for CM.
I've said it in another thread, but yes, I would donate 15-20$ to a successful CM7 port project.

Yep, i was overwhelmed as well. In less than 24 hours we got, unlocked bootloader, full CWM, and a 2.3.4 rom. Supposedly, CM7 is also a work-in-progress.
If this rate of the development keeps we might actually edge sgs2 to a CM7 port.
pff I usually just read through these forums, but what the hell, Ill donate a decent amount too
I'm still not quite sure why so many people love CM7. Yes it a great ROM but I feel like the way it looks it just all right, and the new blur-themed 2.3.4 GB rom for the Atrix is a lot smoother.

agreed.. it runs like poo. as of now. runs like poo on droid x 2. we will have to see how it runs on ours? on CM it makes the phone "yours" as in you can do anything you want to it. so much customization, etc. a sense port would be nice but that would take a loong time, and miui.

ICS: Can it run?

What do you guys think? can it run on the G2/DZ?
i think it might be able to. looking at the code, it might be able to run some things. plus, the galaxy nexus has only a 5mp camera. the G2 has a 5mp camera as well, so it could be capable of some ICS camera features, maybe all of it. i am keeping my fingers cross that ICS can work on this phone!
If it can run on both Nexus S and Nexus One, i don't see why not on G2?

there was a basic honeycomb port a while back, and thats before we had a real source for honeycomb. Now that we'll have the ICS source, we should be able to run it. It'll just take time to get developers (and google) to have a working release.

Stock would just be fine with me! My guess is anything above stock, like a sense version of ICS, it will take up too much memory and perhaps slow the phone down.

Somehow I can't believe that is the reason. I mean, people are already installing ICS on the N1 from AOSP, without even needing blackrose custom partitions like Sense ports need.
I think people don't want to admit that Google is doing the same thing that Apple does with older hardware. They make it "obsolete" so you're tempted to upgrade. I mean, maybe the G1 is a bit of an extreme case, but not so for the N1.
