About Carbon
CarbonRom is an aftermarket firmware based on the Android Open Source Project. We are dedicated to fast, stable, and feature-filled roms, honesty and communication with our users, and openness with our code. We like frequent builds, with the very latest and greatest hardware support and fixes. We strive to not only provide you with the best rom we can build, but also to give back to the Android community and our fellow developers. For us, this is about creating something we can be proud of and hope you will enjoy.
Please feel free to look at, build, and use our code on CarbonDev GitHub.
We would like to thank CyanogenMod for their device trees, framework/settings mods and their code that was incorporated into this project. We also extend our gratitude to the devs whose code that we have incorporated. Proper authorship has been maintained and can be viewed on our repository.
Special thanks also go to Slim Rom for some of their features, PA, AOKP, and anyone else we may have borrowed commits from that hasn't been mentioned here. If you feel you have been unfairly left out, please - let us know.
While we make every effort to test these builds as much as possible, we are not responsible for anything that may happen to your device, family, pets, or perception of reality. We ask that you do your part to know your device and know how to recover from problems before you flash! If you have questions, ask your fellow users or ask us in #teamcarbon on freenode IRC.
Features
Simply stated, we can't really list features here. There are too many and they change too frequently, and we now support a truly insane number of devices. Chances are, if you like a feature, we have it already. Seriously.

Carbon Updates
Join us on these Social Media Channels to keep yourself up-to-date on all the latest Carbon news, updates, contests, and more! Join our completely open Google+ community for insider conversation with devs and other users.
Download Carbon
All Carbon downloads and further information such as features, changelog, and FAQ can be found on our goo.im page.
Both nightly and release builds are available. Please note that nightlies are for development purposes. This means that they may not work properly, may not flash, may not build for days at a time, and will probably eat your cat. If you flash these, know what you're doing, have backups, and don't complain when something happens. It's on you!

Support
We spend an astonishing amount of time developing this software. We can't spend much time on XDA as a result, so if you need support, please try the following:
1) Search. Search, search, search. Yes, you. I don't care how unique or important your question is, it's very likely someone has adressed it already. Especially if you're even close to new at this.
2) Read our FAQ, which can be found on our goo.im page linked above. It's new, but expanding fast. Just like us!
3) Ask a question in your device forum. Someone will no doubt try to help you. Warning: this help may come in the form of telling you it's a dumb question that has been asked before. See step 1 - such are the perils of asking questions when you haven't done the research yourself. Android is about helping yourself.
4) Join our G+ Community: http://community.carbon-rom.com This is where we spend the bulk of our time and the best way to reach us and other community members. We update and frequent this community far more than XDA, simply due to time constraints and the convenience of G+.
5) Ask a question on our IRC channel. Connect to #teamcarbon on irc.freenode.net or click here. You'll find several other Carbon fans and usually one or more devs as well. Please be polite.

I do have one question. I just finished flashing the ROM but when I try to download voodoo sound manager from the play store I'm getting the ol this app isn't compatible. I'd there a work around because I really like voodoo.

Did anyone install yet, and, does BT call audio work properly, or still have the cm 10.1 issues?
thanks again..
in case anyone is wondering, the delay in seeing the boot animation is due to added support for boot audio. we haven't included any in there, but if you want, you can do so by placing any mp3 named boot_audio.mp3 in /system/media.
Holy S***t this flies
Thank you!!!
Question for those that have installed this does it offer the option to save photos to the sd card with the included camera?
Not to seem at all ungrateful, but - several people have asked without response about the status of Bluetooth in-call audio, with no response from the developer. Before I flash this and begin testing, I have two questions:
[rant]
1 - Is there source available for this build, and will it be shared?
2 - Is this going to be turned into abandonware, as the previous LiquidROM instance appears to have been. It's not been updated since 01/26, and the thread was recently locked without any details from the OP. If I'm going to flash something, I'd like to be at least certain that someone's going to be available to work with me (and others) on fixing the release and that this isn't just going to be dropped when something more interesting comes along.
[/rant]
That said, I'd be more than happy to help out with this, as it looks exciting.

Bluetooth in call is messed up, and probably will be for a while, until Entropy or codeworkx decide to take a look at it. Its messed up, with no insight to being fixed.
1. Source is already published in the OP. Second or third paragraph.
2. Just because a dev locks the thread that means everyone must know details? Let's just say there is no more *team liquid*, Things happen.
The Carbon group has more knowledgeable people involved than liquid.
If you don't need in call Bluetooth, flash. It will see updates. If you need in call Bluetooth ALL AOSP ROMs will have the same issue.

This is the opposite of abandonware, its a VERY rigoruous continuation and overhaul of the previous project. I have spent ~60 hours or so working on this in the last week so flash and see for yourself...we plan on putting out updates far more frequently than the previous team did..

I downloaded from Rootz last night and got the same thing on CM9
. Tried twice just to make sure
The developer wanted to keep the kernel as a RootzWiki exclusive. Kind of a silly thing to do in my opinion as it hurts the users to split the community.
Glad to see this kernel make its way to the Galaxy Nexus though. Was a great kernel for the Nexus S. Now we just need morfic

Yeah I appreciate what rootzwiki does for the developers. It definitely favors them, it just hurts the users because they are unaware of these great and talented developer's work that's being exclusive to rootzwiki. Because, lets be honest, rootzwiki is nice to developers, but its not as popular as XDA causing a lack of awareness of releases.
I already feel this because the rom I use gets updated the fastest on rootzwiki. The xda thread of the rom is 1-2 builds behind.
That's just my take on rootzwiki. It definitely makes people go to their site. But I just don't think its right to split the community between the two websites.

There's a second version of the kernel in that thread that ezekeel posted that has less of a ram/gpu/bus OC. He posted for people that can't boot the one in the OP, try that. I'm lucky, I must have a good soc I can run the one in the OP with AOKP 15 no problem.

You can be member of XDA and RW at the same time. So I do not see how this is splitting up the community. You can link XDA threads on RW and vice versa. No matter what forum you are currently on, the other always is only one click away. All barriers you might see that split up the community, are in reality only in your mind.
I agree that it can cause a little more effort for the users since they might have to check two forums for updates. But let me be frank here, compared to all the effort I invested in writing this kernel this tiny bit of extra work for the users is hardly anything to complain about. If you have the time to play around with custom kernels and ROMs on your device, you got the time to check a second forum once in a while for updates.
Wow! Here a last. I will give it a go...

I know you can be a member of both. It splits the community in terms of discussions. Because one forum thread on XDA can be discussing about a bug within the kernel; where on RW, the discussion is about something else. You can fill in the rest of the points.
Pretty much what I said about developers updating their threads having the latest exclusive to Rootzwiki. Some developers don't update their threads and have it a few versions behind and not even link Rootzwiki.
I certainly have the time to visit both forums, no doubt in my mind about that. I visit both, but I mainly "lurk" on Rootzwiki and don't really put any effort into contributing to the forum discussion.
Unfortunately, for some users they don't have the time to go through two forums and view all the forum pages that they weren't able to read then to find out that there's a bug with the current release (or having a outdated thread where it's fixed in the newer version). Pretty much the point I'm making is that the OP thread is not equal to the Rootzwiki thread (or vice versa) in some ROMs or kernels. But pretty much since you made a rule about not having download links on any other forum, it pretty much voids my point but not generally speaking as not all devs follow this.
As much credit as Rootzwiki give to the developers. XDA can deserve the same amount of credit for providing a source for developers to distribute their custom made ROMs / kernels for mass consumption due to it's popular user base.

If you don't have the time to do some extra reading, you probably don't have the time to root, and if you can't afford to do some extra reading in order to quash any bugs that may occur whilst you are using a ROM, then once again, maybe you should stay on stock.
Think about it this way, having certain distributions on RootzWiki will eventually increase their community, which will give users a choice in regards to where they wish to settle to collect their distributions from. There's no point constricting everything into one place, especially considering certain communities really do have a poor reputation in regards to quality of users, posts, content, and hosting. RootWiki I'm pretty sure are also responsible for actually supplying a few developers with devices, which is rather generous in a sense, don't see many communities doing this (most likely wrong).
Not my place to argue this, but I don't think you have a leg to stand on with your argument.

I have the time to do the extra reading. I'm not saying it on my part, I'm saying for everybody else. And not everybody has to read to be using custom ROMs and kernels. That's why there are "nightlies" and "stable" releases. Stable releases are releases that are meant for people who don't have the time to sit here and flash every other release. I myself flash the newest and latest all the time. You can validate this by looking at my posts as I'm a very active poster and help many individuals out with their phones when they're having problems.
Not everybody are addicted to flashing because they don't have the time and they're not always available to be near a computer. This causes a misconception when it comes to ROM/kernel releases (as I mentioned earlier so you can stop directly calling me out).
As I mentioned previously, I respect RootzWiki for what they're doing and I have mentioned this numerous times. I'm not disliking RootzWiki or the developer's choices whatsoever. As much as RootzWiki has for its developers, the same goes with XDA for mass consumption. And that's that, developers and users both go the same way.
Developers want mass consumption for people to find bugs with their kernels / ROMs to have it fixed. The more people, the more chance of stability.
Users want more developers for more production of ROMs / Kernels. Kinda like how XDA & Rootzwiki correlate with each other.
I personally like Ezekeel's work with the lazy governor and what he's done for the Nexus S and I'm really happy to see him developing for the Galaxy Nexus. Just stating my two cents for the casual flashers (yes they do exist) although I'm not one of them. If you'd like to have this debate, feel free to inbox me. This is way too irrelevant out of this thread.
But anywho getting back on topic. Can't wait for this kernel to mature and see what it has to bring to the table. It'll definitely be a good thing overall when the kernel is stabilized then source is revealed for other creative kernel developers to implement the 'lazy' governor and additional features to improve overall kernel performance.
Never mind 10 charr
Its not that big a deal to write a damn book on it. Who cares where the kernel is posted, them more devs the better.
Trust me, the issues have nothing to do with making sure the users see all the discussions and updates. It boils down to the fact XDA is not really happy when someone uses their reputation and brand and web presence to drive traffic to a competing site. Good or bad? I'm just saying, that is why the rules about this subject exist. It's naive to think otherwise.
The other rule is that the Development forum is a place for developers to share their own work. It is not a place for users to post links to someone else's work on some other site. That is why I think this thread belongs in General. But whatever.
But with all that said, I know that Ezekeel is one of the most talented and creative kernel developers working on Android today (I know his work from Nexus S) and I'm very happy his work is available for the Galaxy Nexus now. Cheers!

Instructions for flashing recovery from adb or terminal
As there still isn't an official 4.2.1 release for the s3 series yet I will continue producing preview builds for those that would like them.
They will be located here
Thanks Casper!!!
Thanks Casper. I've been flashing your builds the last few nights and they have been great. Thanks for posting this here for everyone else.
Please ignore the haters that will inevitably thread crap. Plenty of us appreciate this work.

THANK YOU
I've been using these AOKP daily drivers for weeks. Amazing how far JB has come! Thank you, and great work!!!
Question: the only "issue" is that it seems that even with the recent improvements to data speed, it still lacks when compared to stock based ROMs.
On any AOKP ROM, I never get the "4g" Tx / Rx speed but immediately started to when curiously moving to Wicked ICS ROM last night (stock based).
I've been reading about CM plans to fix this, especially since M1 is finally out, but don't have a clue what the plan is. From a "butter" perspective, this driver pwns any other ROM I've tried My only issue I've encountered is I want the most out of my data speed.
Thoughts?
Again, good work

As far as I know this problem was fixed on builds as early as labor day time frame. With both cm10 and AOKP Ive gotten "stock" speeds.

Thanks. That's what I read. I saw an improvement, but my phone never showed the "4g" logo at top right when achieving the higher speeds.
Is there anything lacking between stock and CM10/AOKP at this time? I constantly read other forums this week where people say what their favorite rom is. Many always point back to a tweaked stock-based ROM for most stability and battery life. I know that was true for awhile, but as you said, given the labor day time frame and even the stability / speed I noticed, I'm not sure if CM10/AOKP still lacks.
I was also using ktoonsez 9/10 kernel. Batter life wasn't that great for me as I had hoped. Idle drain still too fast for me.
Though, this AOKP ROM was very very stable for me!
Thanks again.

So you're just referring to the 4G symbol in the notification bar? Where AOKP and cm10 has H+? H+ is T-Mobile "4G" and its up to the Developer of the specific rom to add either 4G or H+...hope that clears anything up for you

As far as the 4g logo you will never see that with a CM or AOKP rom as HSPA+ is what Tmobile actually runs on. I've been able to conclude myself through testing different modems with different ROMs that it really is depending on where you are, where you are testing too, and how many people are polling from the tower that you are connected to. Working as a network engineer I can tell you that most cell towers only have a backhaul between 50Mb and 200Mb so take into account how many people live near you and what times you are testing your speeds as well as the location you are testing to. I tested from my home on cell data to a local source as was only getting 4Mb then tested to a source in TX (I live in Indiana) and I was able to get ~12Mb.

That answers it. Thanks casper! I've considered changing the modem too but from what I read, typically it's a marginal improvement / performance hit for most. Just feeling lazy.
You guys convinced me to come back to this driver. Now that even the developer can confirm speeds are no longer an issue, this ROM is not lacking for me whatsoever. Yeah I guess I got fooled by the 4G logo hahahaha!

Any donations and/or support are greatly appreciated.
11/14/12: withdrew monies from PayPal. Putting it towards purchases of some more hardware. Leaving the donation link up because this project could surely use much more support! Thanks to everyone who contributed so far!
10/30/12: made a quick update to the chipin site. Still working on getting the chipin site and Paypal to sync properly, but all donations are definitely showing in the Paypal, so no worries.
UPDATE: The first donation of up to $50 dollars, I will match with a donation of $50.
UPDATE 2: Due to popular demand, there will be a "learner box" created for those that want to "experiment" with development on a faster machine. There should be enough parts to put it together and have it running as we approach the current project goal.
This is the official buildbox support thread. Many of you are probably wondering what a buildbox is... I will try to explain without getting too far sidetracked!
---Purpose---We are trying to raise money in support of multiple roms/devs. This is not for one particular dev, nor is it one particular rom. Consider this a donation to the community in which you are a part of. This is helping the devs have more resources at their disposal, and ultimately, helping you have a better rom! Please read below for more of an explanation.
---What is buildbox?---For the open source community (CM10, Paranoid Android, CNA, etc), the roms are built from source. Doing this is not very easy, nor is it quick! It takes a lot of time and effort. I don't want to simply 'thank' the devs and leave it at that. So, I have made a contribution to the open source community. I have commited a powerful server to the devs that choose to use it for building open source roms.
Now you say, "So what... they could use their own computer and build roms..."
Yes, they could. However, look at this. For many devs (especially since ICS and above), the build times have increased significantly!! I'm talking 4+ hours in some cases! In steps the buildbox. The buildbox (in it's current condition) has cut most build times to between 20 and 30 mins.
Then you ask, "Why does that matter to me?" Well, the quicker the rom is done, the quicker we discover bugs, and, in turn, can FIX bugs! Think about it: If you were waiting in the lobby at the car dealership for some work to be done and it was going to take 3 hours to complete the work, you wait. You aren't getting anything done. Now, if you were able to speed the process up to 25 min, you could get much more done that day because you aren't stuck for over 3 hours!
---Why does this matter to you?---Maybe more choices of roms, maybe nightlies of your favorite roms, maybe less bugs! A small donation toward our goal will help keep the hardware current and allow for the devs to get the great benefit of a powerful machine. Hard drive space is quickly filling up, the RAM is over full utilization, and other hardware improvements can be made.
PayPal here:
Any donations and/or support are greatly appreciated.
Currently supported devs (a big thanks goes out to them and their work!): Phantomphreak53 (CM10 nightlies), kbizzle (Paranoid Android), and justlovejoy (CNA)
PS: If anyone is looking for more info, has suggestions, or is interested in the project, feel free to pm me. All of the devs can vouch for me (even a couple not listed here). This is a legitimate request. We are counting on the open source community to keep this project going strong.
tl;dr, support open source development and make a donation to the development tools!
This Dude Is Amazing In his efforts to contribute to the true meaning of AOSP for ALL!
Thank You! Without You CNA wouldnt have moved as fast as it did and my future ROM's
Hopefully too! Thank You Again Sir!
If I had the money to throw down on this I would definitely make a donation for this.
Not only would this help cut build times, this would also speed up the time it takes to sync repositories, depending on the connection that the build box has.

I use to donate to Developers, because they spend time developing instead studying, hanging with friends or family etc.

I hope to be wrong.

This is not a "I want to buy a new computer" type of thread.
This is a thread for donations to help keep his server up and running. Running a cloud based server for building from source requires a good internet connection, and I'm not talking 12, 20, or even 50Mbps... at the minimum it needs a good fiber connection with something like 100Mbps down and at a minimum 50Mbps up.
Just think of this, it is similar to a virtual machine you can run at home.. but you can have multiple sessions running at once. Justlovejoy could be doing something, slick_rick could be doing something, sbrissen, phantomphreak, etc. If one needs to do a sync of the repository, there would be plenty of bandwidth and processing power for all of the developers to do so.
With donations, he could go out and get more memory for making backups. He could set a cron job for something like 6 in the morning after the nightly builds complete to make a backup image of the entire build box. Our developers work is safe if there is ever any failure. That means less time reconfiguring build environment, syncing repositories, building, committing changes to github...

You are correct, we owe credit to sbrissen for jellbybean. These "secondary devs" have produced many good roms. They have allowed the community more choices. They actively work on fixes. They try to answer the communities requests. They provide you nightlies (for the flash-o-holics out there). It doesn't sound like you are giving these "secondary devs" as much credit as they are due.
This is a completely independent project. Without support from the community, it will be hard for these great devs to continue to put out the work that they do.

AOSP stands for android open source project. All of the roms listed are not touchwiz. Hence, they are AOSP. Also, the thread doesn't ever "not include" sbrissen or others. It simply states the devs that use the buildbox that I have created. That is all stated in everything I have written. If you want to donate to sbrissen, that is your choice.
As basketthis has already said... this buildbox is not only limited to the devs that are currently using his server.
I would imagine if the resources like CPUs, RAM, and bandwidth allow for it... any dev that builds from source can use this option to build their source built roms. Even kernel devs such as Agat could use this option to build from source.
The sky is the limit to how many devs could take advantage of this, the only thing that is holding this back is contributions from the community. Instead of donating $5 to a dev, you could donate 3 or 4 and donate 1 or 2 to the build box fund... or you could just donate to the dev and the dev should donate for using the build box. Either way, there will be contributions to help keep the build box up and running.

Umm the point of this thread is for e4gt users to donate (if they want) to this build box so devs can put out their roms quicker and such. Nowhere does it say sbrissen isn't allowed to use it. If he wanted to use it I'm sure he could.

If you can prove you are a good enough dev, you would get an invite to use this service.
How is that a fail? Are you expecting complete noobs to use this and waste resources? If someone wants to get their feet wet with development, run a virtual machine.

That's fine but it should be a service for everyone who wants to try to develop. I have a itch to learn but like I said I don't have a computer with enough hardware to build a source ROM with. So how can I "prove myself" to anyone. Either way I won't donate to something I got absolutely zero access too. That's just my 2 cents. I'm sure others feel the same.

Ok, basketthis first and foremost isn't trying to get a new computer. I personally use his box to build roms for two devices currently. If he hadn't provided the machine to turn my 4 hour build times into 30 min, I would be left standing with my d*ck in my hand, just trying to work with one device in a timely manner. A donation is simply that. So all I ask is that you don't come in here and bash him for just trying to give back to the community in his own way. It's his bandwidth and electronics we are using and over time, they will need to be paid for and upgraded. If you don't know the Devs or use their roms, that's fine but don't throw accusations around to try and deface a member of this great community.

If he hadn't provided the machine to turn my 4 hour build times into 30 min, I would be left standing with my d*ck in my hand, just trying to work with one device in a timely manner. A donation is simply that. So all I ask is that you don't come in here and bash him for just trying to give back to the community in his own way. It's his bandwidth and electronics we are using and over time, they will need to be paid for and upgraded. If you don't know the Devs or use their roms, that's fine but don't throw accusations around to try and deface a member of this great community.

The more understanding, the better. This tool is out there for the devs and we want to make it better so more devs can get involved. Who knows, it may be a dev that ends up developing for your next phone... The possibilities are endless with community involvement.
Received a donation. I've committed to match anyone else's donation up to 50 dollars. Would like to see this project continue. I will do everything I can to help. Can't wait to get my hands dirty on some upgrades for these devs! They deserve it!
Got the chipin/PayPal sites working together. The chipin site now reflects donation status.
Bump.
This guy is already hosting a build box for Kbizzle, which has made it easier to build his ROMs. I personally think this is well worth a donation, even if it's just $1...
Next time you donate to your favorite developer, send this guy a small donation to help keep the build boxes up and running.

Thread Closed, links dead. OP can PM or report post if revival is necessary.
Preface:Lots of great developers have been bringing Cyanogenmod to the Honor 5X, but no one has posted any experimental builds for people to flash. Since I have been able to build CM with the sources other developers have kindly created, I would like to share builds for others to try out on their devices without having to setup an Android build environment.
I would like to clarify a few things:
These builds are UNOFFICIAL and may not be daily driver material.
I just build these ROMs from sources OTHER developers create. See credits below for developer list.
I cannot provide ETAs for the next build, new features, or anything else.
I have only tested these builds on KIW-24, so other variants might not support this ROM.
You are solely responsible for flashing this ROM along with any damage that might result from said flash. See the disclamer.
See post 1 for install instructions and downloads
See post 2 for screenshots and changelogs
Disclaimer: Voided warranties, bricked devices, rogue alarms at 2AM etc. are all your own problem. Neither any developer nor XDA is responsible for any unpleasantness that may result from using this ROM.

And anyone else I might have missed. Let me know if I should add someone else to the credits.
To flash this ROM you need to:
Unlock bootloader and install TWRP
Boot into TWRP, perform wipe, and then flash ROM .zip and optional gapps *NOTE* non kiw-24 users see this post for information on flashing.
Reboot, and enjoy CM on the Honor 5X
Unofficial ROM Downloads:
3-10-16 - REMOVED by OP
Optional Gapps Downloads:
http://opengapps.org/ (ARM64, 5.1.1, Full)
Changelog:
3-10-16 - Initial build. (Tested) working features; wifi, BT, (some) data/LTE, normal phone features.
Known bugs:
No rear camera
No fingerprint sensor
No extra kernel features like Tap To Wake
Some cellular/data features may not work. I can't test this so check posts below to see if someone else can confirm.
Screenshots attached.

Why is it kiw-24 specific ? I read on the other thread that it worked just fine on another variant

I can only test on kiw-24. Another user has reported being able to flash ROM on kiw-22. If you or someone else can confirm that this will work on other variants, I'll update the OP.
Nothing was posted cause there is still things that need to be fixed...lol.. Bugs in builds suck..
Awesome! 40 days after US release. ( i know its been around these forums for a little while) but having a flash-able file is a big bonus. Any general working or not working info ?

I didn't mean to imply that other devs where in anyway at fault for no posted builds. I understand the desire to focus on fixing bugs rather than maintaining builds, but there a lot of people, myself included, that don't mind running buggy builds if we can get a taste of CM.
By the way, do you want me to add you to the credits?

My deal is this... I also have builds of BrokenOs (my rom) for this device but i havent posted any for public use, for one reason...Respect... @crpalmer is doing 95% of the legwork for this device over there at CM and Im sure once hes ready and comfortable with where it is, he will announce builds somewhere for it....I think its both premature, and kinda crappy, to make public someones work before even they think its ready for public use.... My 2 cents... Oh, and i dont care about credit for anything..Im just a rom dev, i get enough for that....

Thanks for your input. I certainly do respect @crpalmer along with all the other devs who have worked on this device, and I in no way want to detract from the fame/glory/respect they are due for all their hard work.
@crpalmer or any other dev, if you want me to remove this thread or change it in any way, please let me know. I don't want to step on anyone's toes. I was only trying to help others get a early taste of CM so they didn't have to build it themselves.
Appreciate the credit but I just fetch coffee and hound Huawei when necessary for devs doing actual work.
No harm removing me from the credits.
Thnx to all the devs trying real hard to get these awesome roms on our device.... Really appreciated

Thank you @Bandit Development for the build. While I understand where @InkSlinger420 is coming from I much prefer the state of where @crpalmer has brough CM to over stock. I've been running this for about 4 hours. GPS works great, data and phone work great. Most importantly switching between apps doesn't draaaaaaaag.
Hopefully those responsible for the hard work on this rom will realize this wasn't an attempt to grab the spotlight, but rather a way to placate the masses. Also, needed or not, there is valuable information even in the few early posts because not everyone uses their phones the same way, so one person may never run into a bug that another person sees frequently.
Fingers crossed, but perhaps this thread will also limit the number of posts in the [Dev] thread asking when etc.......... I know I filled it with build questions which probably didn't belong there either. However, I'm trying to learn a little about rom development and one of the first steps to that is to be able to build the rom so you can test your tweaks, or at least see how someone else's changes affect the phone.

It would take me approximately 30 seconds to add automatic nightly builds to my autobuild server (I already generate some builds every night).
Consider that and the fact that I haven't done so as an indication of whether or not I thought builds should be posted right now...

Wow, didn't realize you have a server dedicated to building. Because of this, I did not know that you wanted to wait to post builds. Would you like me to ask an admin to remove this thread? I sincerely don't want to mess with your work, plans, or anything else.

You don't need to remove the thread, I am just pointing out that I don't think that the build is at a level of quality that represents well the work of CyanogenMod.

Well, I'm happy to let you take over cooking builds if you'd like. I certainly don't claim to be able to make quality builds.
I would really appreciate any tips/info you'd like to share that would improve my builds. I've been trying to learn how to fix bugs and contribute to the ROM development, but the task seems to be a rather undocumented and slow-going.
