[Xperia Pro] CyanogenMod Teaser Video

[deovferreira]

As you know, CyanogenMod and FreeXperia have been working on Xperia devices for a while now. I would like to show you our progress on the Xperia Pro which, hopefully, you will be able to use soon.

For now, check out the video:

deovferreira is defer (member of FreeXperia Team & contributor to CyanogenMod) so if he is posting a video abt CM7 on Xperia Pro it means that the device will very soon get a CM7 release...

That's great!!! I can't wait to get CM7 on here. The phone is actually pretty good at default, but I miss CM7 a lot (Old phone was a Milestone running CM7).

To avoid things like that in general, the Xperia Pro really needs it's own forum. Who can we talk to about getting that setup?

+1 I really don't understand why it takes so long to create new forums, but hey ho.

This video makes it look like that xperia pro comes loaded with cm7

SE has learned from past errors, and the stock Gingerbread firmware is great, but I used CM7 on my old X10 Mini Pro, and I like it most because it's more customizable.

When will this CM7 will be available for Xperia Pro? I'll be waiting

I also think we Xperia Pro users need a forum(or at least a subforum inside Neo), but in the while, we have to use other fourms

 

[rcummings100]

Not to be bothersome, but any ETA on when you'll be issuing a public release? I can'r wait for CM7 on my Pro!

Hmmm, why no releases for the Pro? This is one of the few things left keeping me from pulling the trigger on eBay...

To elaborate...they did release CM7 for the Pro....2.5 weeks ago.

I've been running it for the past week and there are some minor issues like the hardware keyboard's alt-character keys not being mapped properly, but it's still a great piece of work!

So pull that trigger on the ebay auction

 

[bemymonkey]

I'm confused... is this a CyanogenMod port for the Pro? I was hoping for "official" support, i.e. with nightlies and so on

 

[chuinkee]

if you are looking for that, then no, not yet. but we put it on our phone so that we can feedback to the developers on issues and other things. this "beta" will help the version to progress to the official port. mine have been running for 3 weeks and all seem good.

 

[bemymonkey]

Any idea why the Pro was left out? The other Xperias all seem to be listed on the Cyanogenmod page... making me nervous

 

[Bin4ry]

Very simple. Pro is the latest device which arrived. I personally like it very much. But the Pro was the latest device we received, so we have still some issues to work out before we pull the trigger on CM-Server. Also it is still not available in many shops for example. Here in Germany it's hard to find (except online) and because of that it's not very popilar now. Release was only a few weks ago, a little patience please here
At all the device is ready on github/cyanogen, it's named iyokan.
No need to worry, let us workout the latest problems and it will be included in official CM soon.

Regards

Thanks for the reassurance

Search the arc forum for "PRO" threads. there's two actively developed Cyanogen mods (CM7 and CM9). i've been running CM9 for a few weeks now. it's pretty solid.
