Cyanogen beats ALL manufacturers to 2.3

---

Just read on Twitter. Cyanogen has 2.3. (sadly not for us).

But to put it in perspective. As their official Twitter announcement stated.

A bunch of GEEKS beat all manufacturers to 2.3 *Gingerbread* by reverse engineering their devices.

GREAT WORK ALL..

Do they mean they beat them to upgrading devices to 2.3? because there are already 2.3 devices out iirc.

yeah my buddy has been running CM7 for a few weeks now i think on his HTC Desire.
because of the camera and mms issues he went back to 6.1 though.

Either way progress up stream always helps us!

Not us specifically since we have already been told we wont be seeing cm for our device unless somebody not on the cm team ports it.

Just saying. Even if we never see CM7 there is still the knowledge that they gained that could be used.

More importantly it shows the ingenuity and selfless dedication that the DEVs in the community have..

Yeah that is true... imagine what amazing things we could get if some manufacturer would hire a couple of these devs and take the risk of having a totally open phone that could come rooted and available to theme and install roms on... the amount of work the developers we have could do if they were being paid an actual salary and had tons of coders and R&D and everything is just too much to think about. imagine how much money they could make from all the hacker/developer people that would jump on a device like that.

Shhhhh they may be listening. Besides if there is one thing a corporate board room can do its *^&%* UP a good idea.

Kaoscinate v5 for the fascinate is a cm7 port so I wouldn't doubt it if you could get that up and running without too much trouble once the hardware patches get put in.

so, has anyone flashed and rooted the desire? I have a friend with one and I figured i might hook him up with a cyanogen Rom...

Is it as easy as the galaxy S to work with?


And yes, I plan on reading the threads in the Desire before I get started,, i was just wanting a quick Opinion or two from some peeps i know
