Ics Possibilities

With cm9 already with us, how close are we to say, custom Ics roms, like say, a clean Ics build or something. Or are we still missing some vital components for this to happen.

Probably not any besides the one xboxfanj is making but there is a possibilty that we have devs working on a clean ics I know of one whom is working on his own version of cm9... but well see..... not too far away but much more difficult to port. I'm sure

CM9 and MIUI v4 will be it basically. They are already pure AOSP ROMs. What is more custom than that? There are a multitude of kernels to try with them and themes are being built on a regular basis now. Not sure what you are looking for. The only custom ROMs the epic had are based on Touchwiz and we are not getting official ICS to base ROMs off of.

The problem with basing on ICS is that you need to edit the source code and cm9 is already optimized enough. If you havent noticed, cm9 is a custom rom and IMHO the best one. It doesn't have touchwiz or bloatware or ciq so it doesnt need to be optimized, fixed, or cleaned.

I agree with other posts here. What more do we possibly need besides aosp cm9 and miui!? Lol. Its a treat that we're even seeing cm9 on our phone.

I don't know this is just my 2 cents but maybe he's asking what custom ICS stuff we can look forward to as far as customization...like in CM7 u can move the status bar to the bottom...in MIUI u can mix and match themes...control the CRT animation and some other visual and peformance things...there are a lot of spaceholders with options that haven't been implemented as of yet too

Once CM9 is out of its alpha stage and all the bugs and small tweaks are worked out and also once the devs get most of the upstream stuff i believe that we will see at best themes for CM9 but as it is now its in its "clean" state.
however i cant wait to start seeing themes come out for it i would love to learn how to theme CM9 i have some good ideas but still reading the how to's and working on my own CM7 theme lots of trial and error lol

It's not that I don't like cm9 or Don't already think ice cream sandwich is "perfect"( as is, far from it. This is the best experience I've pretty much had on my Epic. I just like seeing the variety and you guys' varied take on OS's as you've shown before. But yeah, it'll probably be a challenge cause of the almost perfect stableness.

Your variety experience will probably come once the theme engine is working and you can swap themes all you want.

Any Dev interested in bringing AOKP to epicmtd?

A dev from the AOKP project said that if someone was willing/able to be a device maintainer for epicmtd, he would be willing to begin a build for it.

You should hit up the CMteam in Irc to see if they're interested

AOKP.. Hm I wonder what features they strive to have or have that we don't already have..
It isn't AOKP per-say but CM9 is based on AOSP, and is in definition, "kanged" before it's a Release Candidate.. You could say we already have AOKP via our CM team. still interested on what advantages there'd be in having that in our Epic.

What is different really? I've run both aokp and cm9 on my tab 10.1 and both are about the same, but cm9 is much more stable

I've run aokp on my nexus and I really liked it. It has many features that have not made it into the cm9 builds yet like the Octolock mod as well as different battery mods built in. Paired with the right kernel it has great potential.

Baked Black Beans?!?

Hey has any devs considered getting baked black beans ported over for the epic. On my nexus s 4g I had it and Its my favorite over cm and aokp although they rock too. Just thought it would be an awesome fit and not to hard to port over. Maybe I can study up and figure out how by myself since I am already using the ns4g modem

You can do it yourself, just use the ns4g one as a base and "debug" until it's functional. The hardware is almost the same so it shouldn't be really hard at all

chunks are in use in the most current ck10 at this time.

if its based off of cm10 use cm10 as a base and take framework, app, libandroid_runtime.so, libandroid_servers.som libmedia_jni.so and media from the baked beans and (overwrite)merge them into a cm10 zip. dont release it though unless you do modifications such as fixes or such. and be sure to credit the respected devs.

above is pretty much from him, we've helped each other for the past 2ish 3 months on sense 2 and 4, but he says porting aosp things are all the same, not much difference. and he is very helpful!

Yeah I tried porting using a guide on youtube but it was based off of cm9 so that may be why I keep getting a boot loop. When I get home and am by a computer I will give it a shot. I was also considering crossbones and remjb

it bootlooped because you didnt have the libs i stated a few posts above., now remember, it isnt for the faint hearted! it can be tedious.

go for it. there's an 1103 out now too but these latest builds have been giving me some hard times with google maps. I don't remember ever having the problem in the builds before the 28th. I do have it working with some clearing data, uninstalling, rebooting, permissions, blah blah toggle toggle witchcraft stuff and after wards it seems to work just fine with out any issue after. I honestly have no idea how or why it came up but I do see some other people mentioning gps stuff so hopefully it wasn't anything I did as I haven't changed my process in any way that can have that as a side effect. then again I haven't been doing clean installs like I used to always do, maybe it's that?
I didn't do a full port of that rom as I still don't see anything that special in it apart from aokp, slimbean, cm10, and all the other aosp like roms. besides the inverted apps the main appeal to baked looked like it's settings section and maybe the altered status bar which messes up some themes if I'm not mistaken. It'd be cool to see a xperia port over from the ns4g, or remjb/touchbean, or miui jb over another near cm stock experience.
I use cm10 as my base, then do my slimming, then do my merging, then my tweak adding (your fonts wont be stock if you use my base). If you're trying to pinpoint bugs in your learning process it'll be better to use the cm10 stock base over mine. I have logging disabled too so if you do want to try with my base enable it so you can pull some logcats.

Isn't Black Bean based off of AOKP 4.1.1?

Use the guide above from andy_nu then logcat. or if its from the nexus s 4g, its easier. If its from the nexus s 4g, copy meta-inf from cm10 as well as everything outside system. Then, copy vendor, lib/hw, firmware, cameradata, and etc/wifi from cm10. Then, copy etc/vold.fstab and vold.conf and bin/vold from cm10. Then edit the build.prop in the cm10 ns4g modem zip to have the same version info as the black bean rom and copy it over. Then, copy lib, bin, etc, and vendor (and everything besides app in /system of the ns4g modem zip. Also, add the boot.img of the ns4g cm10 modem zip.
Make sure you flash the ns4g modem if you don't already have it. its a bit easier to port roms using ns4g modems rather than epic modems because epic modems require framework hacks, and apktool can be frustrating.

Looking for a new rom as a daily driver

I've grown bored of CM, Slim, and Paranoid Android, so I'm looking for an interesting rom, my main stipulation is the source has to be out there so I can go and look around in it (and likely build it since I'm weird like that), MIUI looks interesting, but I'm still looking to see if the source is out there.
So I'm looking for input, does anyone have any suggestions of a ROM I can take, build and customize my own version of and use as my main rom?

I don't believe MIUI releases source code.
And essentially any AOSP ROM that has a repo can easily be built. I used AICP to build from its repo and it worked fine. Customizing has different meanings to everyone.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

I though miui was closed source not positive on that but either way its awesome ROM if you find anything good please share I was looking for something like MokeOS (sp?)
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk

For what its worth I use and reccomend F2FS version of Carbon ROM, but it maybe too similar to CM,Slim,PA for you.

Found a good one I can work with, tried it in the past, at the time it was a bit much, anyway, it's PACman, I did like some of the things they did with it.

I suggest liquid smooth. Its super fast and there are a ton of built in customizations. And about the coolest boot animation I've ever seen
