still,its better than nothing right?

Do we now if the camera will work in this official CM7??
If so, great news, I'd unlock my bootloader for sure!

What's the release date of the CM7-Version that supports our beloved Xperia devices? I guess it would be something like CM7 7.1.0RC2 or even 7.2.0!

Quoth Wikipedia:
CyanogenMod is an aftermarket firmware for over forty cell phones and tablets based on the open-source Android operating system.
It offers features not found in the official Android-based firmwares of vendors of these devices, including native theming support (also known as the "T-Mobile Theme Engine"), a codec for the Free Lossless Audio Codec (FLAC), compressed cache (compcache), a large APN list, an OpenVPN client, a reboot menu, support for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and USB tethering, toggles in the notification pull-down (such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, and many more), as well as other enhancements. CyanogenMod was also the first mobile OS to incorporate BFS as the task scheduler, a change that has been merged into experimental branches in the official Android source tree.
CyanogenMod claims to increase performance and reliability over official firmware releases.

So yeah, it offers a lot of features not included in official ROMs, and very useful ones indeed. But if you don't plan on using them / don't need to, I guess it's better to stay on stock? That's up to you to decide, after balancing out the pros and cons.
You should also keep in mind that you might void your warranty if you choose to install a custom ROM.
In my opinion, SE stock ROM is better than most other vendors', but CyanogenMod is the best.

[Q] What is OmniROM?

Stupid question, but what is OmniROM and what does it mean for the end-user? I just saw a post from XDA on my Facebook feed, and it seems like kind of a big deal.

I've had an iPhone since about three months ago (because they were the only phones readily available to be bought used and without a contract), but have always kept up with Android. It doesn't seem like innovation stopped. What are we missing now? Cyanogenmod seems to be packed with innovative features, so does AOKP.
BTW, great signature.

I don't think any iPhone is in the works for omni at the moment
I felt what was missing was a team to implement ideas that have never been imagined by the average person, or have been thought of as to be "too difficult" to implement.
I feel this rom, and the team behind it, is the answer to this problem, which should open doors up in other teams, including cyanogenmod
And thanks

It WOULD be a feat to crack the iPhone's bootloader past the iPhone 3G and get Android booting on there, wouldn't it..?
So, the OmniROM will not just be another copy of another custom ROM? Now that it's being mentioned, I do feel like a lot of them just have the same features.Maybe that's why I'm not fully satisfied when I habitually flash new ROMS.

I work with someone who builds for the iPhone. I might get them to add omni support for it.
Omni is based on aosp (the stock source from google). From their patches are added to support an array of devices. Then new features are added. Seeing as it's a fairly new project (only been around 2 months), there aren't a lot of new features, however there are a few ones to note
They are adding true multi window support
The quick settings tiles are flipable
There see, so to be a new app called "OmniGears". I'm unsure about what exactly this will do, but it seems to contain rom specific settings
I hope this is enough to convince you this won't be a "copy of another rom"

Multi-window sounds awesome. It's one of two features, the other being Watch-on, that I found useful/interesting from TouchWiz. Now, all I need is a download link... I don't even care about bugs.

I totally agree. I wonder who has info on this.

One of the major criteria for a device to have official omni rom is to have a dedicated device maintainer.. so if u have a dedicated developer who can participate ..... omni is open source ...

Yup. In the early days of omni, some guys were working on the d2 family, but I don't think I've seen any recent activity there.

I have been eagerly waiting for Omni Rom for the loving d2att devices. Have been requesting different devices for building something for our device, till date no success.
Hope someone stand up and do something for our device

Android L preview for s/s plus

Would it be posible to port Android L preview to s/s plus? It's probably posible.
I wish someone tries to do that.

I vote for this, we need "Android L" on Galaxy i9000.

No its not possible i guess. We must wait for cm12

So the problem is only the available space ?

No and the hardware limitation because they cant handle the 3.10 kernel

space?
space is not a problem, a slim cm12 rom like SlimCM could have enough free space, and moving all posible apps to SD would help to, and ART would be good for a second life to our phone.
But, about the hardware limitations, there is maybe some way to use the 3.4 drivers with 3.10 kernels? And, I ask, did the 3.4 kernel initially support our devices?

No this is not possible because 3.10 kernel has lot of changes...we can use only the android L if we are able to use 3.4 kernel but we will lose many features probably

Android L beta uses 3.4 kernel and has almost all features of the final version. All apps of the final version will work in beta.

KitKat was already developed for low end devices, as it only needs 512 MB RAM and has a low graphics mode. But Lollipop needs more process power for its animations and other new features. I know it's sad, but we all knew that this journey would come to an end one day.
But that's just my two cents, maybe someone will port L and it works good [emoji6]

We've had a good run though. Our galaxy S has had some incredible support from A LOT of incredible devs. In fact were still getting new ROMs and updates now even after all the years our phones have been about. I don't think that L will run smoothly, but most likely we will see L hitting our phones, and maybe some dev will find a way of getting this to run well on our phones. Devs seem to love a challenge. It's thanks to such great devs that I'm still using my S1 as my daily driver after 4 years even after changing phones once, not liking the upgrade, and coming back.
A BIG THANK YOU TO ALL DEVS WHO HAVE GRACED OUR BELOVED S1.

There are some really truly great devs in previous version of our beloved nexus devices, And would like to please ask DEVS! To put your HANDS UP if you are going to show your support & efforts in the HTC Nexus 9 :good:

I usually just port Custom Rom's to devices. Not really port I guess, just have to change the device tree. Do a little bit of kernel stuff to.

I don't consider myself a dev, but I will be getting one of these, once the "Sand" version is available.
I am wondering how much more difficult everything is going to be between Lollipop/SELinux and 64-bit capability.
This will be my first Nexus device as well - closest I've had up to now is running GPE on my M8.
