**ABOUT THESE ROMS**
These Roms are basically all WIP. They are for any dev that wants to take them over. Im switching to the sgsII and trading my ns4g.. which means I can not work on these
THIS ALSO MEANS THAT I CANNOT PROVIDE ANY SUPPORT FOR THESE!!
Also MERRY CHRISTMAS !!!
I thought of this as a big christmas present, or holiday present, for you guys out there. Its also kinda a farewell gift, so enjoy
any dev is encouraged to take these roms and fix them, just give credit if you re-post it
I will have the rom, the download, and a not working list for each port. I will not have updates for these, this is up to other devs.
Some of these may have weird updater scripts, I didnt check them before upload because I like surprises
***THE GOODS***
Droid Razr Port (2.3.6)
not working-
-data
-images are too big, need to be resized
-wifi, bluetooth ( I realized that i suck at these, you will see in the other lists )

Xperia X10 Port (2.3.4)
not working-
-sound
-wifi, bluetooth ( here it is again )
-random reboots related to sound

Sense 3.5 Port (2.3ish) (Radiance HD from the Evo 4g Forums! ) ( adb shows mBlockInputEventsBlocked is true when screen or buttons are pressed, so it knows they are there...)
not working
-touchscreen
-buttons
-most likely wifi and bluetooth
This rom seems to be completely functioning, i have recieved messages and it plays notifications, the touchscreen just doesnt work. So after first boot the screen shuts off, and thats it. This would be a good one to fix

Nice! I liked how you thought outside the box here. It will be nice if you bring some of your ideas/projects from here over there. The stock ROM has been tweaked in almost every possible way. Getting a Sense port or something really different on that big screen would be nice!

You guys really want TouchWiz? It's terrible. I have an Epic and all we try to do is get rid of it. I guess TouchWiz 4 is ok though.
If you want something, you can flash this zip

That'll give you the launcher.
I have the epic touch and am using my nexus until they can get ics on it touch whiz isn't that bad but its bad enough for me not to want to use the best phone on sprint. Plus I got my galaxy nexus so that's holding me over for the mean time
I feel like I'm loosing a good friend.

Many (myself included) felt the same way about Sense. I HATED Sense with a passion when I had my Evo, but some people actually wanted it ported over to the nexus.
It's bizarre... those that have a bloated mess of a launcher/fork want vanilla or themed aosp - and nexus owners with vanilla aosp want the bloated Sense mess.

I personally just wanted something other than stock vanilla, miui, tweaked stock vanilla, cm7 vanilla, themed stock vanilla etc.. so I went for random things that maybe not everyone wanted really bad, like the droid razr port or sense 3.5.
I started to hate aosp on my nexus, it was the worst thing and i would have rather flashed froyo sense..

Touchwiz on the Epic Touch is nothing like it was on the Epic. It is blazing fast and smooth. If I could change the icons, I would never use a 3rd party launcher but ADW EX has me hooked right now

Hi, first of all thanx to all the DEV's that make all the beautiful rom's. I'm just curious why can't the dev's make rom's from CM7 build we have? They can make it better with their flavor.
No disrespect to any of the Dev's. Just wanted to know. I hate TW its killing the phones.

Actually there is a majority of people who like TW (I am not one), and its simple enough to throw away if u dont, so to say its killing out phone is a lil bit rediculous, also from my understanding (haven't used CM Builds l8ly) they change alot rom and kernel side to make it completely incompatible with AOSP/Stock FW, it would be alot of work to say the least, 2 CM7 IS ported I do believe, but still with bugs (ofc).
3 IF u want stock as possible u CAN download launcher2 or launchers developed from it.
4. There is very little pros that outweigh the cons (for me at least) to scrap what I've done and work from a new source, just to rebuild somebody elses and not really ever have it 100% the way u want, all devs code differently
And even though in my case I do like lookin through other devs work jus to see what they did, and maybe see my own swing on it or c if how they did something, but whether or not, the same thing remains, no matter the code, there's multiple ways to do it (usually) and something u do to somebody elses can usually have side effects xD from not knowing how they went about it that's simply probably y u see these roms geared from OTA sources and such is its way to.much effort to simply take a huge project like CM on and expect to get anywhere fast.
Not to say these devs ain't capable, just saying, u would need more then a few devs working on a base..
Thanx for the reply
TW is system wide, so changing the launcher it doesn't make it go away. And I know we have 2 rom's. I was saying why the dev's can't make the cm7 that we have better with their touch.

I never once said just changing the launcher makes it go away...
Its in the framework, ui, everywhere incl widgets that stock can only b used with TW..
But yet again, it is simple enough to get it out for the most part.
And the answer to ur question then is simple, didn't have needed resourses/sources for CM to add it directly, and devs here Probably have similar issues..

i dunno how is working perfectly for you cm7 for our phones has a bunch of bugs for once you gotta leave gps on all the time..... anything that the phone needs to do landscape basically makes the app foreclose..... bunch of games that make the phone be in landscape is either really buggy or fs instantly..... Doesn't let you record in 1080p video also..... im sorry but you are cutting a bunch of features that the phone brings just to say you on cm7 not 2 smart in my opinion

Agreed its just not an "everyday use" ROM I prefer my TW stripped tank I gut here lmao
Only gut golauncher as home tho... can't w8 for ICS (well, I can, not lookin forward to reworkin all this crap xD).. so usin tablet GUI looks so sick xD wonder y they choose ugly ass colors for stock.. h8ed the green n not big on new blue either..
Haha just found out today after lookin at some of my libs (Never clued in b4) android builds are goin alphabeticly:
Eclaire
Froyo
Gingerbread
Honeycomb
Ice cream sandwich
Wonderin whats next cant think of a desert or entree that starts with "J"
I'm guessing since people are working on ICS and CM9, nobody wants to waste time on CM7. It would be nice to have a fully functional CM7 ROM though.

We don't have the source for the CM7 rom, so it is hard to improve it.

Jelly bean

LMFAO. Ye that works xD
Hate TW
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
First off, I would just like to thank all the devs who have worked like mad men on giving all us dinc users some delicious Ice Cream Sandwich, for without your amazing work I surely would have thrown my phone in a fit of rage into a wall a loooong time ago. Now, even though there's no official word yet, until later this morning , I think it's safe to assume that Jellybean will end up being named Android OS 4.1 instead of 5.0 (ICS, but with improvements). With all of this in mind, is it possible that we could actually get some JB love? I understand that we'll have to wait until they release the source code to know for sure, but with what we've heard so far it sounds like it actually could be possible. Idk, am I just missing something obvious here?
P.S. I'm asking this mostly because I'm trying to get my posts # up (I'm new here, be nice), although I'd love if we could entertain this thought for a moment. I think I only have like 2 posts so far (cuz I ACTUALLY search for stuff, WOW!!!!) so bear with me, please and thank you!

My only concern is battery life, its unfortunate ICS loves to eat our battery like the cookie monsta.

Because of the determination our lasting devs have. I mean I never thought I'd see sense 4 on the DInc, even ICS.. working completely fine now.

From what ive seen ics doesn't really push our GPU or CPU that hard. I think our phones should run it great.
Man, this is really awesome! I'd love to get this thing on my Incredible, and would love to help on getting his working! I'm just done my freshman year as a computer science major, and I'm pretty amateur, but maybe I'll dig in wherever I can :-D

It isn't! Just think when we were on 2.3 and we got that upgrade to 2.3.4 and then 2.3.5 and 2.3.7
ICS and Jelly Bean aren't that far apart.......there's only about a dozen new features that make Jelly Bean different
I took a look at the framework-res.apk and a few other core apks and it looks like Google just added on to ICS instead of building Jelly Bean from the ground up BUT I'm sure someone will read an article over at Engadget and come in here and try to act smarter then me..hahaha

That explains why the GUI isn't as drastically different
So jelly bean is coming out soon but ics camera is not ironed out yet.
Why most ics roms still have still camera issues (FFC) or smooth video playback or even recording? hasn't the necessary files been acquired since google is planning on releasing JB?
I just dont understand. When can we have ICS camera that works like GB cameras?
Miui got the camera to work on their ics roms
Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk 2
If miui got the ffc working on ics then it's probably not an hwa ics rom
The most common misconception among noobs is that developers are not working on fixing bugs just because they don't have a WIP thread or they're not updating you every 5-10 minutes. Most developers like to keep things private until they get ready to release it :good:
Another one is that, things are real easy like just swapping the camera.apk from a rom that has it working to another one in order to get things working...hahahahhaa
There's also priorities! Fixing Temple Run or instagram is usually at the bottom of the list when it comes to bugs for a developer....don't expect a developer to drop everything he or she is doing so that you can share pictures of your cat on instagram
The reason the FFC isn't working yet is because is not as easy as some of you guys think it is! This becomes even harder for a device that's EOL....instead of asking WHY is not working, you could be asking....what can I do to help the developers make it work!
Having ICS (4.0.4) with a working camera and HWA on a device that's 2 years old and was made for froyo/gb is an achievement on it's own! Instead of asking why things aren't working and possibly turning this thread into YET ANOTHER dev bashing thread, let's be thankful that we have the developers we do Things could go downhill if we start acting like iPhone users and start complaining because things are not fixed fast enough or when we want it......let's just chill out! Things like the FFC will come in time.......remember how long it took for us to even get HWA!
Also Jellybean will come sooner or later, someone will port it! I'm almost sure that it will come......whether that's Team D.I.R.T or Diablo or JMZ or some random dude that we've never heard of...IT WILL COME!! Now, let's stop with the GIVE ME NOW attitudes!
I'm not trying to sound all high and mighty here BUT it bothers me to hear people say "why hasn't this been fixed yet" or "the EVO 3D has this working, why can't we get it done" but nobody wants to step up and help out? Everyone wants to ask for ETAs and ask what's taking so long or demand every feature they can name on a rom BUT I don't see too many people offering to help.......just saying!
FYI guys, things like this can't be fixed by just swapping apps around or downloading an app from the Play Store.....I heard some guy (to remain nameless) say "why don't we just get the camera from the sensation so that way we can get FFC going" and almost died laughing...hahahahahahaha

stock.
Stock rooted
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA Premium App
stock. put some flowers in the background or something
Stock for now, but another aftermarket ROM that I gave to my wife for her HTC Incredible is MIUI. Look for a previous build though (GB), the new ones are utter sh*t IMHO. I've had a lot of fun with MIUI back in the days of FroYo.
Stock rooted jb its great.
If she's a "below average" user.
Then stock JB.
If she wants to have fun with phone and is actually able to remember things about the phone, CM9/10
If she wants to get all complicated, then AOKP.
--------------------------------------------------
If I have helped you.... hit that sexy thanks button. ^_^
Bleh stock... I suppose that's not a bad option on aosp the words stock on her old phones are terrible because of touchwiz and Moto blur
Cm9 is pretty stable though i assume. Any bugs?
CM9 Skyrocket
Stock anything, rooted for AdAway but that's probably about it. I've had too many experiences with non-power users doing that angry thing people do when they don't comprehend technology.
MIUI. Simple, clean, extremely customizable.
My gf doesn't even want to try a new rom, she really seem to enjoy it.
BUT, and this is major point, my gf actually isn't that much into technology, so i assume she just wants the cutest and most user friendly experience.

Leave her stock. That way she can't blame you when something goes wrong. I mean, she will anyways, but don't give her an excuse. And forget about those other phones, stock Nexus is pure awesomeness.

The wife has watched me root more than 20 or so different phones I've run through for the last 3 yrs and STILL asks me questions when I explain it.

It's not that girls can't use ROMs, its that he's talking about rooting and ROMing her phone when she has no idea what's going on. I'm all about girls being into hacking phones, but only if they do it themselves!
I don't condone rooting and ROMing someone else's phone unless they know what's going on and could do it themselves.
I guess I'd just leave it stock and make her a custom Fashion Barbie Nerdgirl of the Undead theme or something, for brownie points.

True. I recently passed my sgs2 on to my dad to use on tmo prepaid & I put that thing back to stock, rooted rom for him.
However, on aokp, I have no data drops, GPS issues, any problems etc... so I don't really see an issue with that.
