he says that its still worked off a temp root, so we still need to find a perm root for it to be on there over a reboot
HTC Touch -> HTC Hero (Sprint) -> Nexus One (T-Mobile) -> HTC G2 (T-Mobile) - > HTC Sensation 4G (T-Mobile)

Long Live Android!

Did you see how fast that was running? I mean I don't know what it is bout the G2, but the thing flies. I really like the move of this. Hope to see more, and that's only with temp root for now. :)

I'm guessing it took a fair amount of work to get CM6 up and running on the G2... so I'd say it's a step forward. There are steps between the beginning and the end.

What I'm doing is bringing in all the necessary modifications to *userspace* to build from source and support all the hardware. This is not simply pushing files around. There are a lot of changes for 7x30 required since much of the audio and video output works completely different than what we (and AOSP partially) currently support.

It's not a step forward towards a real root, but a step forward towards having something you can build from scratch and do whatever you'd like with.
