Thanks ...I think its a good idea to have one location to look for updates and discuss. Thank you for making this rom for the nexus s! (Just kidding! Too soon?)

Too soon, too soon xD
good idea with this thread

haha yeah maybe your right that its to soon, but i read that drew (yes THAT drew) is getting out his update soon and miui also said that theyd have ics soon so i figuered better to soon than to late! ;D

i really want a full build!!! hardware acceleration is what i want but can't try in the sdk port ><
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App

yeah, good idea mate..
hoping that this thread will not go under in discussions who has stolen the rom from who and so on.. simply updates - no discussion from who and why and how.
actually I run the ics port b12, quite good, only the market update crash-issue is ugly .. let's hope and wait for the devs to get ICS sooner mostly stable

i was using b12 as well, but then i swiched back to gb miui because of the market, whatsapp, sms (maximaum one page) and all the fcs...
but i fell madly in love with ics and i keep looking for roms for the nexus s all the time! ;D

I think drew should just upload now... he can get out the stable version later!
I have to satisfy my lust for ics! ;D

Way to go OP. I was following other threads here and, like many, I find it hard to find an update on what's happening without searching the internet up and down. Those other threads became laughable. Why would anyone send you hate mail for hopefully clarifying things with a consolidated thread. Good to see this.
Sent from my Google Nexus S

Where, oh where, is our nexus s ics update? Any release date rumour?
Anyway, good thinking. Feels good to have a topic to go to.

koush's ROM seems doing fine except for camera and wifi according to him.
i hope he shares it soon eventhough it's not fully functional.

-Google

There will not be a stable ROM until the source is released. Not the source for the Galaxy Nexus but the actual source. That will happen when the OTA is released for your NS most likely. CYANOGEN will wait for real source as will the MIUI team.
You will see some adapted and modded ROMs based on the Galaxy Nexus code. Most likely they will have modified GB kernels I believe.
I would not be surprised to see OTAs for NS right after the Galaxy Nexus hits stores in the US, definitely b4 Christmas.

Say what you want about drew but at least he had no problem releasing half busted roms. Now that people are making source roms we are begging for them to at least give us a half busted rom while we wait but no one will ugh! I don't care if just the camera and wifi don't work! That's leaps and bounds above what were used to!

So you mean that google only released the source for the Galaxy nexus and not the actual source code for ICS 4.0? have they ever done that before?

[Q] CM7 / kernels development and KANGs? Which one to choose?

Being a total Android n00b, I just finished converting my SE X10 mini pro from stock to MiniCM-2.1.9+ nAa-11 kernel, and now I want to go on taking care of my ZTE Blade, but as far as I have seen by now, development for the ZTE Blade is quite different.
The official stable CM7 seems to be stuck at 7.1.0 since autumn, somewhere it was mentioned that nightlies have been discontinued, I could not find any info on kernel development, and progress only goes on with builds called KANGs?
Has official CM7 development shifted to CM9 only?
Can someone explain please, what KANG means?
Which CM 7.2 KANG is the current recommendation (I read about targetBSP, BurgerZ, burstlam and sej7278) and what are the differences?

You can say these as unofficial nightlies built by other people with their own small modifications but with all the official CM updates.
The names you mentioned are the one who built them

The one that i found fastest was the burstlam build but they're all pretty similar....except..targetbsp's version is more like a vanilla version meaning using all official cm updates only no extra mods etc. s

CM7 is still being developed, the only thing that stopped were the nightly builds, think it was hd failure on the server or something. CyanogenMod recently took donations for new servers, so they should be back up & running soon.
KANGs are just versions built from CM7 source, but not by CyanogenMod. There isn't much real development going on with them. They're just more recent because the CM7 nightly builds stopped months ago.

Go for Burstlam's build. Has good options for UI customisation and also has lesser battery consumption.

Does Official MIUI GB comes to Note ??

I love to see MIUI on our Note
the official version is not yet released??Is there any hopes to get it?
**** Even Htc One Got it :'(

If you are looking for Official MIUI release then I high doubt that.
You can find unofficial MIUI release here itself. Unfortunately it ICS based.

I think MIUI is now Open Source. .It looks really great on our Note. .Any devs to port it??

there's cyanofree and imilka's cm9 nightlies. go visit the dev section.

If I am correct, no body interested in porting GB for Note. They are waiting for Samsung to release ICS to get the drivers for their ICS MIUI rom. You can find a beta ICS MIUI rom (unofficial) rom in the dev section.

does cm9 supports miui themes????

What are the nightlies at here? Are they the newest updates of CM7.2 - RC1?

Hi folks,
Im sorry that this is a silly question, but I have been attempting to look for the next update of CM7.2-RC1 since 14-Mar at here:
http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=olympus
But I saw only the ninghtly versions that show as CM7 (not CM7.2, I mean)
Because that they were added into the same download link with the CM7.2-RC1, so I am wondering whether they are the newest updates of it, I mean the 19-Apr and the 21-Apr releases?
Please excuse me if this is a repeated question as somwhere. Many thanks in advance.

Thanks, but your reply does not make me be clear. I know that is the latest update of nightly series. But my question is, whether that 21-Apr nightly is the latest update of CM7.2-RC1?
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium

In other words, my question is: Have been there the CM7.2-RC2, RC3, RC4...yet? And where is the official link I can check for the newest update of CM7.2 series? Thank you all in advance again.
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium

The nightly is the latest version. No need to check further. I guess if you don't want to take my work for it, you can always check github for the latest changes.

That's the latest RC. Nightlies are the the only "most up to date" roms, but they aren't release candidates.
Edit: actually, RC2 is the latest I think. I'm searching on my phone so its kinda hard to find.

Double post sorry

WTF? There is no RC2 yet. RC1 is the latest "stable" release, and the nightlies are unstable snapshots from those dates with updates to RC1.

Thank you. So RC2 is not released yet and we just wait for it in short time, right? At meanwhile, I see that the nightly 21-Apr in the link on post #1 showed as CM7 instead of CM7.2. So could you advise me about this? How is this version comparing to the CM7.2-RC1?
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium

What are you waiting for? RC1 is the Stable Release. There is probably no more development for CM7 on the Atrix. RC1 is very stable and fully functional. I think you even have fingerprint thanks to the Atrix team.
If you want something different, there are some CM7 variants such as MIUI, Ligux and Mokee.
All development now is in ICS which is basically waiting on Moto to release ICS drivers and kernels. Until then you will not have a fully functioning ROM although the devs have done some awesome work with what they have.
Enjoy CM7 as it is a great ROM for the Atrix.

I am running Morrisoft Gen V0.9 based on CM7 nightly April 9th 2012. It is fast and smooth. I have not experienced any bugs yet. You can give it a try.

edited for dumb question removal. lol

The CM7 nightly released 4-21 (20120420) is more stable than the RC1 so far.
the RC1 fingerlock would stop working if you unselected usb debugging and you would be totally locked out unless you rewiped. It also would constantly random reboot as well as reboot on incoming calls.
The latest nightly so far fixed all that. Yeah I wish there was a newer official release but i guess they are going to CM9 now. But like the e07015 said, moto has not released the drivers and kernels for ics so there wont be any official CM9 release anytime soon. :/
I'm fine with cm7 if it stays stable, crossing my finger. Its WAYYYYY faster and better than motoblurSUCK!

Hey folks!
The guys over at CM have officially released CM10 for our device iyokan/MK16i.
I thought it would be good if we could keep all the discussion related to that in a single thread to keep it organized and available for readers.

I have been using cm-10-20121218-NIGHTLY-iyokan.zip and all the upper versions except the latest 20121221 and 20121222... They were stable and great for daily use but it had a lot of bugs... and they have been releasing a new rom everyday since then so i thought I might for a while until we actually get a stable one...
There were no major bugs... just small ones... like low in-call volume and stuff which is probably fixed in the latest version...

Do we have a list of what's not working and other known issues?
I might give it a try over the weekend.

How is this work related to the work done by team FXP (discussed at this thread)? Is this the same build?
Or is it different?
I thought FXP was the official maintainer of CM for these devices; why is there on official, non-FXP build @ CM,
and a different, FXP build elsewhere?
Could someone please explain?
Thank you:

I guess M66B answered it in the PRO CM10 thread. It is work of the FXP team.
