This is nice although it would've been better placed in the general sub-forum.

I was looking foward to firefox OS when I first heard about it but now I am a bit disappointed. It has the look of IOS but it seems to just be a copy of Android. I was hoping for something original like WebOS or even BB10. If thats the case, why even bother coming out with this?
Although I am sure that Mozilla will try (and even succeed) in making FFOS faster than android, i doubt it will ever receive the same amount of support as android so I will most likely never buy an FFOS phone. Also I love all of the google apps on android.
Only time will tell if mozilla's new OS has real potential.

You are not developing anything here

check the miui thread under dev... we are trying to raise money to donate an epic to either cyanogen mod or some other good dev willing to work on the epic.. i will make a thread soon but all donations will help and maybe make us one step closer to cm7/miui.

if we could get a epic to cyanogen, developement would sky-rocket.

I smell smokescreen. I mean if the Fascinate can get CM7 running, exactly why not the Epic? They say it's "different" but if you can get CM7 running on the only other CDMA based Galaxy S device, it can't possibly be that hard to get it onto the Epic (keyboard too hard to deal with or something? lol!). They just don't want to try, pure and simple.

im pretty sure cyanogen would love to work on our devices .. after i offered him a epic 5 times via twitter and no response ,,, i already given up on cm7 and i don't support it either .. hope we can soon but by the time that happens cm8 would already be out lol
You do know that he doesn't necesarily check his twitter right? Post a thread in adroid general and let's see where that goes.

This question has been answered multiple times. They are waiting for gingerbread source code for our phone and then they will continue development on cm7. Im pretty sure once we get the source code it will come out really quick

[Donation]Atrix 4G MIUI Port

A lot of people have been interested in getting MIUI on the Atrix and FRAMEWORK over at miui.us has stated that he has gotten some progress on this port but is stuck at the point of having no Atrix to test his port on. He is known for porting MIUI to multiple devices. FRAMEWORK said that if he got his hands on the device, it could take a few days to get a working port on our Atrix.
Anyone interested in donating to this dev getting his hands on a Atrix, post on the thread. From there, I guess he will have to set up a way to take the donations or we can put something together. Either ways, this is an awesome opportunity for Atrix users who want a polished and sleek looking ROM.
You have to start it with the necessary half of the phone cost, by XDA rules.

We pretty much have a stable cm7 if I'm not mistaken
Sent from my CM7 ATRIX via XDA Premium App
Our CM7 is stable but is missing camera functionality and few other things. But IMO its stable.. no reboots here
I personally do not think donation threads should be allowed in xda at all without proof of progress. I know he has ported to several devices already, but that is what the donations links on their website is for. I have also seen several threads like this raise hundreds of dollars to get a dev a device and they release one thing and support it for only a week or two and never hear from them again. Just my opinion, I'm not trying to insult anyone.
I tend to agree, donation threads just aren't right. We are moving towards paying devs more and more. at this rate, it will be I won't help unless i get paid this amount. Kinda what this thread is, isn't it. He can't\won't get it done unless somebody buys him a phone. We have done that already at least once here. Maybe that dev would offer up the phone already purchased to this dev so he can do his part, then he can pass it on to the next.....

I completely agree. These donation threads are getting a bit aggressive and we've already been burned once.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App
Now that I've read the last few comments, I realize I totally agree as well. When I first saw this thread, I voted Maybe So, because honestly I was like "Yeah, let's get this going so we can get MIUI ASAP!!" but now I'm realizing...it probably won't make it go any faster, and we will really probably have it VERY soon after a full CM7 is released (whenever that is...), and if people want to THEN they can start donating to the guy. But to donate before hand? I didn't realize until just now how foolish that could be!
As Atrix users, we've seen plenty of devs take the loot and then split, so it'd be risky to do that again.
Besides, I've seen on the MIUI site a thread that lists some devices they're working on, and the only things on the Atrix to do list that aren't there are Working CM7 and Working MIUI. I'll go look for a link and bring it back here if anyone wants it
i thought i saw a thread that someone was already working on a miui build

Haha thanks, that saved me some time.
So yeah, I mean it should be said that this ALSO doesn't guarantee MIUI...but at least we know that we should wait for CM7 until anything should really be done.
And milesjohnson makes a good point...instead of buying someone a device for them to use as they see fit, he could perhaps just do the same coding and have others that already have their own device testing it or something.

ICS on NS4G

I noticed that even though the ICS source code is now available Google only has Android 2.3.7 drivers for the Nexus S 4G's internal hardware (CDMA/WiMAX, Orientation Sensor, etc) available currently. Is it possible to compile a working version of ICS using the Android 2.3.7 drivers for the Nexus S 4G? Also, if I follow Google's compile instructions to the letter is there an easy way to backup my current stock ROM? Google's official stock ROM's for the Nexus S 4G phone has a script called "install-recovery.sh" that runs on boot removing Clockwork. Am I correct in assuming that ICS would do this if I compiled it myself per Google's instructions and flashed it to my phone?

This isn't dev section material... And there are already working builds of ics if you don't want to go through the hassle of doing it yourself...
Although! If you do compile your own, then post it in our lovely dev section.
Follow the leader @corythug
I'd rather compile my own. As stated in my original post I just need a couple of questions answered first. Otherwise there won't be any new ROM's from me in your so-called lovely dev section.
This will be moved once a mod sees it, but, next time know this. People will be more apt to help you out if you put a thread like this in q& a or even maybe general instead of mucking up dev forum with a non dev thread.

OP, I apologize for the others lack of decorum on this site. I am afraid that I am not much help, but I have a couple of suggestions:
As far as the backup, you can make a nandroid and once you are done playing around you can reboot into the boot loader and use the fastboot to reload the recovery onto the phone. From there you can re-install the nandroid backup. Keep in mind that you might want to copy the backup off of the SD card just in case you need to lock/unlock the phone. (This erases the sd card.)

Finally Open source is released on 4.1

I am super excited and looking forward to see what some of you brilliant developers on XDA are going to accomplish with this. Many thanks to you all.
here's the link
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/android-building/XBYeD-bhk1o
"Google has released the latest and greatest version of its Android mobile operating system, known as Jelly Bean, or Android 4.1 into the open source channel on Monday afternoon.
An announcement from Jean-Baptiste Queru, Google's head of the Android Open Source Project, officially opened availability of the Jelly Bean binaries Monday. Generally speaking, open sourcing is the very first step in broad availability for the newest build of Android, as this is the framework phonemakers use to build their respective versions of the operating system.
The team behind Android's most popular custom firmware, CyanogenMod, announced it is going to begin hammering the package out into ROM form as soon as possible. Work on a Jelly Bean release will not affect the RC2 and Stable releases of the Ice Cream Sandwich-based CM9."

I would rather not "develop" anything than uploading some rom that simply changes the way the settings in the menu are sorted. I understand it hurts you, but that is the truth. CM has been the same for 5 years and consequently all the "original" roms based on it are exact same stuff. PA and moles and his team are the only ones that have come up with something interesting. The rest simply keep posting the same rom in different devices for 5 years now.

Woah dude seriously? All the hard work devs put in and you cant even be grateful for what you get. All these brilliant roms you get for free as well.

one problem is the versions of android. every time android is updated, the cm team starts off from scratch. many of the same old features from previous versions, has to be made compatible with the newer version. this takes time. the cm devs dont do this full time, they do it on their spare time. by the time everything is up and running, another version of android is up, and they start from scratch again. there are a few new features added here and there, but this all takes time. and i want to correct you, there are many features that were added since the original cm, its not the same for every android version. also, some features have disappeared because android doesnt allow them anymore.
Why not become one of these amazing developers and bring some of your original ideas. Vice creating a thread of this manner....Thread Closed & Thank You.
