Somewhere..
Rom is better than AOKP build 39. less resets or lockups. more responsive with stock kernel, also handles overclocking better.

Came form the gay unicorn so I don't know if it is linaro related or not, thou I am now a CM9 fan.

Good work. Thumbs up. :)

Thanks for that.. I'm bi.. Now, can we please leave the sexual-orientation references out of it please??!!

Besides, I'm a big fan of AOKP because of the customizable options.. Not so much the unicorn and rainbow theme..

Now, linaro and AOKP.. Talk about the dream rom..

ON the other hand, I tried out the rom this morning, and at least I can agree on that part.. Pretty damn impressive! :) did a few benchmark tests and it was hitting numbers in the high 50's for fps, and quadrant scores of nearly 1600.. Not bad.. Not bad at all! :)

    There's been quite a lot of fuss lately about the Linaro toolchain. Here's a thread about it. After reading up on the issues the CM team expects to have with the toolchain e.g. breaking everything, I made some tweaks to at least get a rom built with the toolchain.

    This is nothing special, if you decide to try it you'll likely see little difference from the latest CM nightly. I built this for myself to test on my own but I see no harm in at least throwing a link out there for the good people to play with. I'm sure that once the experts working on AOSP and CM have implimented the toolchain in a more pretty and less ad hoc way there will be peace on earth, goodwill toward man and lighting fast roms to go around.

    Also on a somewhat unrelated note, I updated the kernel to Linux 3.0.34. The CM kernel was 3.0.32 last I checked. Not sure if it has been update since then or not.

    Needless to say, I did not create CyanogenMod, Linux, or the Linaro toolchain and I'm not responsible for anything ever. Without further ado, here's the link.

    Again, stock CM kernel in OP updated to reflect latest Linux stable (3.0.36) if anyone cares. Untested but I see no reason it shouldn't work. Have a good weekend all.

    so is this one more complete with linaro than the current CM nightly?

    according to the changelog some Linaro is included

    At the time this was compiled the code was identical to that of CM. So, if they had committed any changes linaro related at that time they're included in this. The main difference is that I used the linaro toolchain to build the rom which CM did not on account of it being untested and breaking device specific kernels.

    So liriano is kernel based not rom based if that makes sense?

    Sent from my Nexus S 4G using XDA

    The kernel in this rom is not built with the linaro toolchain. Ezekeel has a thread somewhere that shows compiler optimizations have little effect on kernel performance. The kernel here is only different from CM because it's from a newer linux kernel version.

    EDIT: Ezekeel's thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1371044
    EDIT2: Killasmoke: I'll see what I can do.

    mms

    Strange... I went outside and tested this a few minutes ago and I couldn't download mms. Maybe mine will show up later as well. Also, nexus s, i'll see if i can't find the time to compile one tonight. my computer is really not cut out for this sort of thing so each build is quite the ordeal ha.

    Guys, Sprint is still going through tower changes and phones are not getting mms,phone calls,phones don't ring then latter you get voice messages like 1 hour to 18 hours this will be till the end of June. Again this sucks but will then have LTE as well all for the better.
