[Q] Cyanongenmod for Continuum? - Continuum General

So the Continuum has no Cyanogenmod what so ever. And the Samsung Admire already has a CM7 like theme and it makes it look and run amazing. it's a newer phone and already has it. Think there is a chance of creating a CM7 for Continuum? Will using The Fascinate CM on Continuum work? How long does it take to create a CM?
Just noticed I messed up the name when asking the question. >.< My apologies.

It can be done I believe, we've talking about getting cm6 and ICS is definitely a possibility.

I don't mean to be a killjoy but the probability of seeing ICS or CM on the Continuum is virtually zero.

I think that's entirely false. You guys have the hardware power to run ics easy! And if I could get ics on my locked down d2 you guys can get it on your unlocked continuum.

Any rom port you would have to intergrate the ticker screen into it somehow or mod kernel with out it. Id love to see your port tonight. My continuum service is off so ill beta. I couldn't get my aosp kernel and rom to boot, I'm having same probs with my new phone. Locked bootloader I believe but there is no real forum for the phone. Plus its gb and edify scripts ill have to learn.

Hey Ciscoo!!
Like Cisco said, it isn't a matter of If or When, but rather it's How.
Our phone has one screen from the top to the bottom of the ticker. There lies the issues. There are no dedicated "Hard Keys", only soft keys located between the main screen and the ticker. The coding needed to not only insert the softkeys(it is already in other ICS builds), but to also position the keys correctly on the screen is very tough. Whether this is located within the kernel or in the framework, i am unsure of as well. To prevent going into to much detain, At one point in time i had the CM7 source downloaded and ready to start compiling and messing around, however the more research i did the more i realized i didn't have nearly enough experience, and eventually i put that project to the side.
Likewise, I now have a DroidX running CM9 and my continuum running debellare is so much faster and more stable that the X. My recommendation? Install one of the stripped down roms we have created, install one of CISCOES themes, and then if you want further mods, install a new launcher.
If you want more, open up the framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk; Get a smali decompiler and start looking inside.
Just compiling is much harder than you think.
If i remember correctly someone had moderate luck porting a Fascinate build over and running it. It ran, but didn't "work".

having dug through the system dump...theres a lot of similarities to the 2.3 leaked roms for the i9000...and really besides a hybrid gb/tw theme and merging dialer and contacts back into 1 apk...theres a not a lot of changes really (on the surface at least)
the livewallpapers are kinda cool and available in android apps/themes i think here on xda

its not that simple...its a gingerbread based gsm rom...you cant just add apks without heavily modifiying them or backporting them....will some just work right away? sure...like livewallpapers maybe the file manager

Anyone with half a brain could do what I just said. But it doesn't matter. Its a GB rom and requires GB dependencies. So what I said before is null and void.

Defy now has MIUI

Yea, so now the Defy has CM7 and MIUI. Again, using 2nd init to run the ROMs. They pretty much have the two best ROMs IMO. If they can do this for the Defy, do you think that once Kholk has his bootloader bypass method all figured out we could also get CM7 and MIUI ported to the Atrix?

Thats pretty much the whole point of the bypass. To get custom roms like CM7 and MIUI running.
Sounds like you should buy a Defy.

Yea, we all know that. But do you think it'l be ported? It takes developers with a lot of time, Korean developers did all the ports for the Defy. I'm not sure if we have Korean developers...lol I'm sure someone will port one or the other, but it could be a while. It takes a ton of work matching CM7 or MIUI to our phones.
Well afaik, if atrix gets officially supported by cm7. Miui will support it
I can't wait for devs to start pouring in here. Hopefully our device will have as much development as much as the Samsung and HTC devices.

[A] We REALLY want a kernel built from source!

So yeah, um more info to come this weekend.
OG OP:
hey all long time no OP...
well im officially gonna take over my fiance's laptop to build from sources among other fun stuff.
ive been looking around and noticed it i build a asop kernel it would still only be a 2.2.2 kernel. would cm6 be something we would like to see? ive also been hitting up the devs at UWT to see if possible to make the mods to build a gb kernel to cm7 and on.
i ask these questions cause i wont be the only one using em.
just wanted to pick yall brains for a min,

I'm not too concerned about cm, unless it's 7, or higher. 6 wasn't particularly great, from what I've heard. And, if you/we can figure out how to bake the call to ticker api into it. A custom kernel, for no other purpose than over clock and custom boot animations would be awesome. That and true scripting ability, instead of having to use init.d as a backdoor. If you decide to work on it, let me know how I can help.

I'm with Tx on this. Surprisingly, I'm content with my phone right now. I would like to change my lock screen, but as far as the ROM, it's running smoothly and I don't think CM6 would be any better of an experience for me. CM7 would be nice, but I've already convinced myself our phone will never get gb so it's no big deal.
I would enjoy changing my boot animation though, so I'm all for a custom kernel! Between you and trailblazer, my phone is now what it should have been when released by Samsung and Verizon. Thanks for all the work!
Cm7 is possible. I used it on my gf (hauwei) phone (begore i400) built up from eclair. I didn't do it but it was accomplished. Buggy though. I would rather have functionality over all the fuss though. I'm still on it

How long does it usually take to build a kernel? Sounds like a great plan.
It would be great to see some updates in kernels. Being able to over or underclock or change boot animation would be fantastic. Last phone was OG droid which was easy as he'll to flash kernels, ROMs, boot animations, and over/underclock. I miss that part of it but don't miss alot of the bugs, and lack of RAM with it. This phone does run much better and am happy with it at this point.

I think cm6 would be awesome! Yea its not cm7 but at least its something different. I know there's not alot of devs on the continuum but I think having something different than all these plain roms coming out would be nice, Not trying to sound like a hater or anything.
I'm not that great at developing or anything like that yet but if we got cm6 would that mean we'd have a greater chance at getting cm7?

Vanilla Froyo
im trying to build aosp FROYO kernel/rom. starting there before i try to go up.
i see in the .config file where the ticker is and screen res. but source is huge and has stupid (not stupid) code names. ours is "garnett". yet in the menu config for kernel there are device options to build for "garnett_delta" and another i can remember off head. we are also in need of a working [initramfs], i found them once in our sources but i have already started from scratch 4 or 5 times. i had one successful compile yet no output. my next attempt will be tonight and since have gotten only a few errors that ive looked into but dont understand.
Update (patch) Kernel
from what i have read i can try and update the kernel itself to a 2.6.32.59
and have read in order to update to a 2.6.35 (GB)+ i would have to downgrade (or start?) from 2.6.32 (linux sources only go back to 2.6.32.25 or something (this option would take me awhile to just read about lol)

I want to learn to port or make a ROM

So I want to try and learn how ROMs work. Or maybe that's a little bit too much to start with, maybe mods and hacks and stuff. Is there any tutorials on how to start anything that has to do with development that someone has actually used and learned from and worked with him that you can point me out to? Or at least can someone tell me where I should start to be able to learn all that I need to know?
I've done some theming and editing .xml files and decompliling and stuff so its not that I don't know anything, just don't know enough.

No disrespect to the OP or anyone else, but if you have to ask how then you aren't ready.
Do some research: take apart zips, find out how things work. Learn about Android as a whole (helps to also learn how 'nix) works also, Android is of course based largely on it), and most importantly trial and error.

AOKP/CNA/Gummy is kinda like Sbrissen mod for touchwiz gingerbread roms on steroids. Like xbox said, the AOSP thing has been done to death on ICS. All we're getting at this point is some pointless fragmentation between the roms.
UBER/Biggorn/Big Goron or whatever name your using these days , I wish you luck with that endeavor. I tried to do my own for a couple months and realized that I was updating it every other day thanks to what was getting merged in on the other roms. Too much of a PITA for me so I went back to theming.

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.
You may also want to PM Xboxfanj for advice. He is a master of all things AOSP port...

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.

Could you make a small thread on porting from the nexus s 4g to the epic 4g
