Ok, here is what I got for you guys to help me out on.

These are kanged from Gummy ICS for the Nexus S 4G along with parts from VB and KJ6.

ICS Mutt vTESTER 3. Still needs some smali/baksmali and a look at a few of the .apks.
ICS Mutt vTester 3

Changelog:
Added old version of swype to fix keyboard issue (temp fix)
Changed launcher
Hopefully fixed phone.apk and contacts.apk
Report back with logcats, what you did, and what happened. Also provide me a list of apps that are available.
erik and I did a lot...lol

Here is a link for the original bins, libs, and framework. This download is ONLY for those who are assisting. The zip contains a read me... read it:
Org Files

All these are flash at your own risk. These are NOT FOR TESTING OR CHECKING OUT! They are for Devs ONLY wanting to assist with this project while I am without an SGS4G. Just to let everyone know, I got a bad update from windows on my computer and it screwed up my hard drive (thanks Bill!). These are versions that were still on my sdcard that I had to piece together from memory. Please run logcats (preferably verbose) and report them back to me so I can make my notes and document all changes for reference on future devleopment. Anyone willing to lend a hand during my phones abscence, it will be much appreciated.

Here are links to the original ROMs for reference:

:eek: what!!!! first miui then cm7 now ics u guys :D i dont which rom im gonna use:confused: u guys are great thanks for making this phone way better aww yeah!!!:D

CM7 will probably work first, then after a week or more, MIUI willost likely work, then ICS. Because bhundven and raver, maybe me, will probably help Thomas with the kernel and more.

Wait, so does this boot anymore?

Or did it die after you fixed the bug.

Because, sometimes, things can just boot in a fluke.

Good question brian. I didn't even think to post that. Thanks. Here are the links:
Gummy Source Code
Compile Gummy Yourself

And the OP:
[ROM][AOSP][4.0.3][CDMA] Gummy 0.9.0

Man,

I wish we had that many devs on our phone :(

Oh well, if we had more on cm7, it will help us collect more info on our phone so we can try a port to ics or aosp, or whatever...

Think of cm7 as a 'information collector' we can use to do new projects in the future.

I'd love to hop on this project, but I can't handle that much multitasking. I think we'd get further with more people on cm7, and then later do an ics port.

whadathink?

I wish we did as well. I am amazed on how many devs they have with the cappy (my wife has one) and that phone kinda sucks...lol
I think you are right about cm7. As much as I would like to continue with this project, I think we need cm7 first...lol
I have recompiled this thing 22 times now and still cannot get it to work. The biggest accomplishment I have made was getting it to boot and the setup wizard to display. But have not gotten past that.
I don't know much about kernels, but the way you and team acid have laid things out for us, as well as having a little bit of time since I am on vacation now, I think I am giong to take a shot at it. But I still think there is A LOT more reading/learning I need to do first...lol

Thanks brian...

Just to update everyone. I managed to get fix a couple of things. When I hit the menu button while in setup wizard, I can get into the wireless menu. I was also able to navigate thru the setup wizard, but had no keyboard input my email/password. I found I was missing a key file for the keyboard and will fix it later. However, after navigating thru the setup wizard, the homescreen/lockscreen doesn't show. It's coming together, slowly but surely...

I made some good progress, I think anyways...lol
I installed swype and was able to get past the setup wizard properly.
I got the lockscreen to appear with a temp fix.
Still no homescreen, but I know where the problems lie and will be working on them tomorrow...
ICS is almost here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I dont want any donations or asking for stuff like that, I was just surprised and feel bad for you guys since theres is no ics for this galaxy s device.. every phone has it, even the oldest androids. I have an unbrickable device, so I'll try to get some builds going..

    I love it when all of the developers leave a phone, to leave a tinkerer standing in the middle of the crowd... to become a 'prominent' developer.

    That's how I feel. So to call me a prominent developer makes me feel funny.

    I think it's great that Thomas has gotten as far as he has by himself. I know that feeling. We have both dug the trove of google and spoke with other developers on IRC. Split hairs while reading logs and logcat output trying to correlate where in the code (if you have the source) a problem is happening so you can move on to the next problem.

    I think there is a bigger picture here. RaverX3X is working on some open-source code to replace some of the proprietary binaries we use. Eventually, I will work those into the builds I make, as that code matures/stabilizes.

    Everyone wants the latest and greatest OS, but the goal here is to just be able to build the OS from source. If we could do this on one version, it will help us to take the info we gained to port to newer versions.

    If we work together to make CM7 work on our phone, it will make the attempt to go to AOSP/ICS easier (a lot easier then trying to go directly to AOSP/ICS... since our phone already runs GB).

    If we get an Official ICS Kies OTA, Samsung has 60 (or was it 90) days to release the source. That would be great, but if we can focus on cm7... if we get that drop, it will make porting sooo much easier.

    For everyone that produces deliverables (roms, mods, cwm hacks, themes, apps, etc...) for this phone, you rock!

    just an update, i scrapped what i had and started from scratch. It's booting and i have a few things working. Changing toan ics launcher made a world if difference. after i get the systemui.apk working right i will post some screen shots and an alpha build...
