• Browser

Please See Post #2


It goes without saying, I am not responsible for any damage caused here. I have been running this rom for a few days and am very happy with the performance.

FAQs:
Q: Do I need to Wipe all data?
A: In general it is not a bad idea if you are moving from another ROM. If you are upgrading from a past version of this rom, you should be safe with just wiping Cache and Dalvik

Q: How often do you plan you release updates?
A: See... the thing is... I have a day job and work a lot. I only release "stable" versions that I typically run for 24 hours on my personal device before I release it to the public (dont really like to release unstable versions)

What exactly is different from Joelz original?

I agree with you about 3D..I doubt aosp will ever have it

what's this again?

Hello,
i will be posting a changelog soon, have to go to a meeting. Aside from a few libraries and modules, there are no differences. My goal is simply to get 4G (WiMax) working. It also appears to be a little faster then the other ROM although I dont have any benchmarks.

Cool, thanks for posting. Good luck in your quest to get 4g working, I'm sure that's going to be a tough thing to accomplish.

I am not exactly sure of that statement, I do feel that after some time to reverse engineer how the 3D interface of the EVO3D works, it is possible to build an ASOP with 3D Support.

Of course I doubt it will be implimented by the Google ASOP or even the CyanogenMod Teams but rather the development community. The reason for this is that only a small number of mobile phones have 3D Displays. But hey, The XDA Developer Community has some of the best delvelopers on the planet...

I agree..but the 3D has a limited number of devs working on it and I don't know if anyone is working on aosp 3d except maybe Toast. ..

I don't know tho so I can't say for sure..I just kinda doubt it

wait, please for the sake of clarity, could you explain the difference between this and joelz kang? it sounds like the same ROM, but you *plan* to get 4G reverse engineered from sense for aosp. Which is great, but what then makes this new or different? For instance, in joelz kang, it was kmobs sensation build ported over, updated from toast's build to android 2.3.7, with a newer boot.img, and other things I can't recall atm. Please detail your changes? If there is not a difference, then frankly, you should not have posted this, because you have actually not developed something, you *intend* to. I do not mean to be rude, but for example I build themes, but I don't start *new threads* to say "soon I will make <new theme name> based on <old theme base>" .... maybe the best thing would have been to get in contact with joelz and *help* him and others get more functionality for the cm build? Peace.

Nah, it is something I am not planning to drop

Hello,
The main difference is that I have merged many of the binaries/modules for WiMax into the ROM. When I get some time today, I will be publishing a list of all of the changes

im pretty sure joelz cm7 has nothing to do with toasts, toast never released the source for it. joelz's is built from the CM7 KANG for the sensation and its using toasts kernel from the valpha3. JS..

You are correct with this statement. The WiMax problem still existed in Toasts v3 Alpha. I am currently studying the EVO 4G build of CM7 to see if I am missing something small. While it is not portable, parts of the build.prop are useful

I really think using the sensation as the base may not have been the best idea as the sensation does not have a WiMax radio. Of course with the WiMax, Radios and 3D aside, the phones are surprisingly similar

On a side note, I am also playing with an ICS Build, but its taking a long time to complie. Its far from stable but it boots (I was board last week)

Sounds good can't wait to try it out that's the only thing holding me back 4g

You might wanna check out empires cm7 secret rom in the general section.

I don't know how but he has working Bluetooth

Also 4g will turn on but not connect.

I never tried Joel's port so I'm not sure if that last little bit.of info is relevent

might give this a shot, just to see what all the huss over cm7 is.

that being said, nothing is impossible with some smarts and knowledge of what you are working with. chad's kernels are a perfect example. that guy is brilliant and managed to port the beats sound drivers from the sensation.

Honestly I only get 4G in select areas of Miami, so it is not a big deal for me. The fact is that I do want to be able to use it needed/

CyanogenMod is not for everyone. It is as close to pure as you can get without going fully ASOP. I personally love it because of OpenVPN support

I currently work on a private (internal) git server for my ICS ASOP Attempt. If I can get it to be semi-functional, Ill push it to github
