/*
 * Your warranty is now void.
 *
 * I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
 * thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
 * do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
 * before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
 * you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.

CyanogenMod is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. Linked below is a package that has come from another Android project that restore the Google parts. CyanogenMod does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.

All the source code for CyanogenMod is available in the CyanogenMod Github repo. And if you would like to contribute to CyanogenMod, please visit out Gerrit Code Review. You can also view the Changelog for a full list of changes & features.

1. This ROM will wipe data due to different partitioning. The device would reboot while flashing and resume again.
2. Once on this ROM, the most effective way of going back to any other ROM would be to repartition from Odin.
3. While converting the filesystem, your efs that has your IMEI is backed up to /emmc/backup/efs. Keep a backup on your PC just in case.
4. Incase if you don't get a network signal, check if your IMEI and Baseband are proper. If not, go back to stock and try again.
5. Do NOT use Odin to flash Modems. Due to different partitions, Odin will screw up your existing MTD setup.

1. WIFI doesn't work perfectly. Network strength doesn't show up and the network often disconnects.
2. There is LAG in the UI due to lack of Hardware Composer.
3. Video recording and playback suffers low framerate issues. Will be fixed soon.
4. Built-in WiFi hotspot doesn't work. Please use third party applications.

    First CM release with 3.0.8 kernel is uploaded.

    I have decided to push it to Alpha 5 since most of the stuff works and we have already lost a lot of time since the last stable release (Alpha 4). It's still on CM 10 (4.1.2) for the moment.

    Let me know how it goes.

    Hello Guys,

    I just wanted to keep you informed about the status of the 3.0 kernel that is being currently worked upon.

    As many of you might have noticed my Github repos, me and Adi_pat are working on the 3.0 kernel for the last 10 days. We have had substantial progress as we got the system up and running. Most of the basic stuff works including the Touchscreen, Touchkeys, Volume Keys, Power button, LCD display, GPU etc.

    We still have to work on getting the Samsung drivers working. However, we have been facing issues with getting the USB to work which has got us stranded for few days.

    The progress has been amazing, provided that it has only been 10 days since we started working on the 3.0 kernel and we got it to a booting stage. The kernel is still not release ready, since most of the stuff doesn't work. However, assuming how things fast things are moving forward, the early alpha release should be nearby.

    Alpha 4 is out. This would be the last release on 2.6.35 kernel. Since I have got UART setup, I have already started working on the 3.0 kernel.

    I haven't been able to test the Mobile Network properly because I usually don't get proper network at my place. Please test and let me how it goes.
