Cyanogen Mod (rom) - same as the other GSII's?

So I've done the whole search thing, and XDA now offers a cool display of related threads when I start a new one...but I haven't found something related to Cyanogen Mod 7.1 for our variant of the GSII.
I hesitate to flash cyanogen because 1. it's not stable anymore (according to their forums), and 2. our model of the GSII is arguably not like any of the other GSII's because we have a different chipset.
Had anyone tried to flash cyanogen mod onto this phone or does someone know that it works?
Thanks in advanced!
10-22-2011 EDIT: So people don't need to sort through the clutter, the answer is no there isn't CM7.1 for the T-Mobile variant of the GSII and no one should attempt to flash the one from cyanogenmod's website for the GSII.
Thanks for answering my questions!

Cyanogen mod roms are built specifically for each device. Don't ever try to flash a build from another device. Even the ATT and International galaxy s2 have differently builds even though they're pretty much the same phone

I believe CM isn't even available for our phone yet. Only for the other SGS2 models.

DO NOT attempt to flash roms that were not specifically made for our devices! The ONLY roms that are safe for the TMO GS2 can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1332

Thanks for the information. I thought that would be the case.

Yeah I am a smart guy, thanks. I helped out the OP by telling him that CM isn't available yet. What did you do? Oh well, thanks for trying to contribute though.

None of the unlock solutions from the market work on our devices. If you are a T-Mobile customer, you can call in and request the unlock code, otherwise you can get it by faxing in your sales receipt. There is a good discussion of the topic here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=18643213

My statement was in reference to the GSII only. Users reported too many bugs...but again that's not for our GSII.
If you check their forum there is no more "stable mod" link to 7.1 for the GSII.
The mytouch4g should be fine.
FYI: http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/33171-what-happened-to-stable/

I apologize to you if my question was naive. At least I didn't go posting in the developer forums.
The development seemed active enough for this device that I was considering there was a chance of availability. I'm also not rushing or demanding anything from the developers/developer community. I also give thanks and donate to them.
Other's have graciously answered my question, and to them I say THANKS.

Ubuntu?

Does anyone know if someone is developing an android ROM based off of the Ubuntu OS?
Edit; I'm talking about the theming mostly. Similar to how Miui or Paranoid Android. Does anyone know something like this is possible?
I'd really like to try something like that.

Just going to toss out that this has been on just about every Android news channel imaginable lately. It is certainly a great step though, and I hope to see it integrated into a framework modifier like Xposed.

Why when it is open source if you read the news article all that's needed is a git cherry pick and build. Then its done.

Things are rarely that simple, not because cherry picks don't work, but because some people are in different circumstances than your own. My current phone is a HTC One running a stock kernel, and without more sources custom kernels and ROMs are something of a tricky business right now. I prefer stock when possible, so an Xposed-style framework patch is a good way of "cherry picking" what I would like in a workable manner.

Great that you're sharing the news, but you posted in every thread already and now opened a thread in dev section =/
+1 for good intentions though

I didn't make anything, I knew full well someone would have something to say about me putting this here, I even say so in the first post. Obviously you guys are friends and you decided to take up for your Buddy which is fine with me they can pull this anytime they please.. It was only done to benefit all toro+ ROMs I'm not even mad about what he said he has a right to have an opinion and speak it freely... I'm not going to speak on it anymore.. I don't want to receive sn infraction for making more out of something than necessary... If it costs nothing to pass over this post and live your life.. I will be doing the same.. Again this was only made to give allr necessary links to compile.

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

My two cents...I know goast from the forums, and he is an advanced user and a great resource to me. He's obviously pumped up about halo, and rightly so (it's a pretty amazing innovation by PA team). I'm not attacking anyone, but I like to stay informed about new things, so I appreciated his blast out. Many devs here work demanding jobs, and donate their personal time to development, so this info may help them in this fragmented crazy fast paced world. I just wanted to thank goast for the info, and impart some positive energy here. I'm not a dev, nor am I an expert, but I share goast's passion for android and desire to learn more about it. To me, that's why I love xda...I have a commercially dead device that is still extremely viable thanks to all of the great work here. Ok, I'm done...everybody enjoy halo!

And having a hacked together build not meant for our device would likely be a fantastic experience and a good indication of how their OS works.

If you're not going to post anything constructive and stay respectful then it's probably a good idea that you don't post anything at all. Many OS' have been ported to different devices so bashing others for suggesting it is just asinine.

Porting a closed source OS? That would be a waste of time.

BeanStalk 4.3 ROM for Verizon HTC One available!

I was poking around on the Cyanogen thread and discovered a BeanStalk 9/26 build that is AMAZING! Android 4.3, the works! You can find the download on the Cyanogen page here. I think we have "flyhalf205" to thank for this. Good stuff!

I know you like the Rom but usually I would wait for the dev to say something. Unless flyhalf205 says it's ok. Just don't want this forum to be like the s4 or any Samsung forum where all are negative it seems. I used flyhalfs rom or roms on the DNA and t hey were great. Just I would say let the dev get the excitment since he put it together and put the hard work in. Im just warning you since i have seen what has happened on another thread Like this
