If you look at this and this and see the commits per day I'd go back and edit my post if I were you. Show some gratitude and respect

when I flashed walter79 Version, how can I come back to Miui or CM7 because of the kernel update? Or to the next release of epsylon? -> stuck on boot animation right now

Recover the boot.img from your backup trough CWM advanced recovery, thats what i did and it works. But be careful with recovering boot images.

I just found that the strange bug in Fruit Ninja I showed in my last post was because I had checked "Force GPU render" in Development Options. Unckecked it, and now every app that showed that strange behavior is "fixed".

As for the illiterate bloodsuckers in this topic, please, go away. Create another topic for your senseless (really senseless, some posts aren't even decipherable) ranting. This should be centered on the actual development issues.

I'm not complaining I'm more than happy to wait because I don't know how to build them myself. But I can see why people are complaining.

WTF is wrong with people on this (and the cm7.) thread?

People complain because they are ungrateful idiots! I don't know of any phone that has a modded ICS rom going yet. It's VERY early days.

I actually tested the 0212 build and it worked ok... But I'm back on cm7. Test the rom, provide feedback but stop asking silly questions and stealing this thread for off topic stuff.

Oh and you might want to read the whole thread from op.

thanks for your fast answer. One step I forgot: I tried to flash 3.4.3 sea deblur and now there is no cwm anymore

it stucks at android logo and I cannot install cwm, so I guess I have to work with RSD lite to flash any sbf which could be working, but which of them?

Think you have 2 use the fixed SBF of CM7 then to get the correct boot back. But you cannot flash the fixed sbf if you installed the SBF from the defy+ 2.3.6 so hope you did not do that.

The best thing to do is install all over like you install CM7 for the fist time, dont know which sbf is best for you.

Be careful and do it on your own risk!

Commits for Quarxs GitHub

https://github.com/Quarx2k/android_device_motorola_jordan/commits/ics

! On a core2duo 2.0 GHz with 3GB ram building CM9 needs 2-2.5h !

How to compile CM9-ICS from quarxs source at github This was my way.

1. Install Ubuntu (10.04 LTS) (32bit or 64bit) !You will need 50GB+ free HDD space !!

2. Install the Build Packages

Install using the package manager of your choice:

For 32-bit & 64-bit systems:

git-core gnupg flex bison gperf libsdl1.2-dev libesd0-dev libwxgtk2.6-dev squashfs-tools build-essential zip curl libncurses5-dev zlib1g-dev sun-java6-jdk pngcrush schedtool

For 64-bit only systems:

g++-multilib lib32z1-dev lib32ncurses5-dev lib32readline5-dev gcc-4.3-multilib g++-4.3-multilib

NOTE: gcc-4.3-multilib g++-4.3-multilib is no longer available for Ubuntu 11.04 64-bit, but should still build without issue.

NOTE: On Ubuntu 10.10, and variants, you need to enable the parter repository to install sun-java6-jdk:

add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ maverick partner"

3. Create the Directories

You will need to set up some directories in your build environment.

To create them:

mkdir -p ~/bin
mkdir -p ~/android/system

4. Install the Repository

Enter the following to download make executable the "repo" binary:

curl https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/googlesource/git-repo/repo > ~/bin/repo

chmod a+x ~/bin/repo

!! Reboot for these changes to take effect.

5. Now enter the following to initialize the repository:

cd ~/android/system/

repo init -u git://github.com/Quarx2k/android.git -b ics

repo sync

# DOWNLOAD of files ~ 4GB

6. Download RomManager (DELETED IN BUILD)

mkdir vendor/cm/proprietary

cd vendor/cm && ./get-rommanager

7. Build

cd ~/android/system/

repo sync # to have latest updates

rm -rf out/target

For CM9 branch :

source build/envsetup.sh && brunch jordan

or for AOSP :

source build/envsetup.sh && lunch full_jordan-eng

mka bacon

Use the signed zip to update the defy with the bootmenu recovery, not the ota package !

File is located in ~/android/system/out/target/jordan

are you sure about the 60gb+ free?

We have to find a solution to get him back on the older Kernel.

Has Moto tricked us with their undowngradable SBF

Lmao is it really called nightly because they build it nightly? Btw do you donate to the dev? Why are you people all harassing them to hurry up and produce an update just chill and wait they are working hard on it besides its not the final built they still on beta stage thank you. Every one has a personal life.

yea...

but i dont lose time on the revert for the moment, tried 2 times a dangerous operation and i had to root & reinstall each time, so i take the time to test ics also on the gingerbread kernel....

We work together with Quarx on this, and he will build next build, with is much better

at least here on the 2.3.6 SBF... Our versions have small differences, but we try to stay in sync.

I will try to work on the green camera kernel module.... for the future

the kernel tree is ready and CM7 modules are building fine

Wooww already 1000 posts ! its hard to follow ^^ damn i have to read CM7 one too, and the cyanogen build bot is still stopped

MasterManson_Gunstorm · Dec 6, 2011

not understand the first post, I need to use the rom of defy plus in my defy to use the ics ?

confusing

sUpErwHoO · Dec 6, 2011

yeah but ep3 is trying to figure out ways for downgrade and walter79's joined the build team so fingers crossed ep will comeout on top!

can someone post the link to todays build?

If we have a red lens what is the disadvantage and advantage of gb kernal?

If there is no major disadvantage for reds could there not be two builds?
strawberry ics & mint ics?
