How do I know which rom is aosp and which is cm7? I ask this to figure out which kernel I should install. As of now I'm on the miui rom and need to pick out a kernel from fauxs thread. Thx

So long as the developers listed the kernel as cm or aosp then you will be safe. I think cm7 is build off aosp source code.

Shannon, Ms.
All Cyanogen Mod ROMs are ASOP ROMs as Cyanogen Mod only builds ROMs crime source code. Also the MIUI ROMs or built from Cyanogen Mod source code which is Google source code that has been tweaked by the Cyanogen Mod team then released under the Cyanogen Mod name.

As far as how to tell you just have to read the thread title most of the time as it will have ASOP or CM7 in the thread title usually. If not it will say something about it being ASOP or being based off of CM7 somewhere in the first couple of post.

I don't believe MIUI is built from CM7 source anymore. It's AOSP.

I believe its all based off cm7. Last I checked xboarder56 didnt have aosp on sensation built. It was harder than he thought. dude gave up and went elsewhere.
