That's because it's still a work in progress, and not merged yet. In the official releases. You'd have to find an unofficial build with it included.

Oh, alright, thanks. Any ideas when it might be completed?

As far as I know there will never be any release dates concerning new features ect.. And it might
be considered rude to ask for them. I think someone said: It'll be done when it's done. Or sth. like that ^^

Yup. "Never ask for ETAs" was Rule #1 for Cyanogenmod, and while we intend to many things differently from CM, "No ETAs" is not something we intend to change.

Don't worry. If you're wise, you'll remember it and go on with patience. If you aren't you'll be forumically slain and left for the crows. It's a cutthroat world, this internet; best have your wits about you.

[Q] Root Block: Intentional or Bug?

Cyanogen is saying its a bug. Tmo is saying its a feature. which one is correct?
If it is indeed a bug how would tmo go about fixing our phones? mass recall? sweep under the rug?
If its a feature, is it a precursor to what future phones will be?
Either outcome isnt very good for the consumer and may lead to lots of lost customers for tmo. Specially after tmo releasing a statement that its a feature of the phone.
I love this phone, the very first smartphone i ever had, and was really looking forward to hacking around with it but its hard to justify such a device that locks you out of such features. I hope cyanogen and all the other great devs work out a solution to this problem. I dont want to send it back.
looked for similar threads and couldnt find any.

People are being jerks for sure, but OP, you should search better cuz your question has been answered in several threads. The short of it is NO. It is not a bug in the sense you are thinking. It is an intentional bug which tricks linux (android os) into thinking writes to the system files during root are being made when in actuality, the writes are only being written to cache. Once the cache is cleared during reboot the root access is erased because it wasn't actually written to the system in the first place. It's not a bug that needs to be fixed. It's a bug that was placed there to fool the system and make permanent root more...challenging.

There is a very informational Wiki out. Check it out. It will get you up to date with all the work that has been done towards root.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision#Rooting_the_G2
The important part of the question.. for me.. is whether the Z has the same bugFeature.
I see one random user saying that they flashed a G2 rom on a Desire Z and nothing more. Have I missed something? Kinda hard to say yay or nay based solely on that.
"Intentional Bug" ????
If it's intentional, it's NOT a bug.
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
Thank you XfooYen for the info. I did a quick search before I posted(the posting page even searches similar post before you publish them) and found nothing similar. I will make sure to search more thoroughly next time.
I am familiar with the current situation with root, I just though that if a well known developer like cyanogen thinks that its a bug that maybe the readers of xda might want to discuss his possible ratonale for such a statement, then again that may not have been what he was trying to say and got it misrepresented by the media. Instead I saw nothing but irrelevent and pointless posts. For a second I thought this was gizmodo or engadget.
Thank you again. Its good to know that xda has readers who actually know what they are talking about and not just the average troll.

actually they are teasing with us. they just dont bother their sorry ass to give a proper release date. they just dont even care about to give out an spesifications about the new system. nothing. just some fake news also new screenshots could be fake too. we simply dont know anything about new update. 4 example is the new crappy youtube app staying? what about horrible keyboard?
it just could be stupid update without any new features. also it could be something revolutionary like eclair. but we already knew them BEFORE the eclair released. were just waiting for google's jokes if whole gingerbread is just about some stupid skin and stuff.

Please tell me english isn't your native language, I'll totally understand then. Anyhow Google have 0 commitment to providing us with pre-release info. It's *UNRELEASED* therefore they could deny the existence of GB itself and are completely within their right to do so. These little bits of info like not so secretive tweets are just a bit of fun, surely I'm not the only one who likes the suspense/surprise regarding the lack of GB info?

ROM Development for VZW?

Considering the guy answering is from my understanding the the guy who got root and bootloader unlock I'd assume he has some insider knowledge of roms being developed that have not been released to the public.
One of the devs who has released several roms for the H918 said he's working on a Verizon ROM this weekend. I was speaking with him last night.
Go here and start reading from post 908 and you'll see our conversation. I was trying to get him a system and boot.img last night but ran into some issues.

Oh okay maybe relax and stop mini modding because if you read that is also a rule. Don't state the obvious when you are litteraly doing the same thing. Please stop acting like your bigger than anyone else.
As stated in our discussion thread, no ETAs. A few people have a build and are testing it while we work on ironing out some remaining issues and making the process of "installing" it a good bit more user friendly.

When things are ironed out do you think it will be quick to switch between horizon / Android? I'm wondering if I can just install everything I need to a SD card and switch back and forth like I do other switch firmwares.

(I’m sure you know this) but this can easily be check with the app “DRM Info”.
Thank you
