First of all, that's ADW Launcher. Completely different than Lancher Pro. Second, if you watc, he chooses the default launcher not ADW. That is what the stock froyo launcher looks like. This means its probably an ASOP Rom. Beautiful stuff there.

Sapphire was, in my opinion, a sweet Droid ROM, so I am quite optimistic about this.

Can't wait!

It will indeed be a vanilla rom. Birdman is also coming out with a couple and so is ChevyNo1 and possibly UD.

Here's a little more info on the Obsidian ROM.
http://www.ccroms.net/drupal/

"Obsidian is our previously secret project for making a rom for the Droid X. With this proof of concept we hope to be able to ask our friends and Droid X hopefuls to help us get a Droid X to develop on. We have done this before, and with the coming release of Ruby we are making good on our promise that was previously made to produce a rom on a new device. So we are once again asking, help us get a Droid X so that we can produce a rom for the Droid X, and hopefully we will be the first!
Any amount no matter how small is welcome and appreciated! Thank you in advance! Donate Link Specifically for the Droid X
Proof of concept video below:"
Sketchy. A Droid X to develop on, yet there is one in the video running this "proof of concept"? Money is required to further the cause? I'm not swayed yet.

These guys are pretty well known in the dev community and are the makers of the Sapphire ROM for the Droid1, I really doubt they are doing anything "sketchy". Also, what makes you think that they don't know anyone that owns at DX? They are asking for donations so they have their own DX to develop ROMs on for us.

I agree. My positive prior experience with Sapphire gives me a bit of confidence in these guys. However, the whole jake day DI root fiasco reinforced why I don't donate until an actual working product or service is available

CyanogenMod 6.1 for Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000?????

Not sure if this goes here or not, but has anyone seen this today? I am surprised that it has not been talked about in here. Has anyone tried it yet?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=842159

Its full of bugs and there is not a re-orient kernel for it yet. Its not ready for primetime yet, unfortunately .

Posting a re-oriented kernel shortly. Sound through headphones doesn't seem to work. Most everything else does. The whole still beta thing definitely applies.

personally I am hoping that nexus S turns out to be pretty similiar to the Galaxy S. With the source and a good base I think we are more likely to get a 2.3 version of CM before 2.2

is CM6 gonna be that much better for our phones?

While I'm pretty sure they are almost exactly the same phone, I really doubt we're going to get source anytime soon. They are a couple of weeks away from a CM 6.1 beta release. It will have alot of the same issues the i9k roms do, but it should work well enough for most people.

I'm just glad Cyanogen has shown interest in the Galaxy S. That makes me feel like we'll see continued development, in addition to all the great devs already here for the Galaxy S series.

xcaliberinhand's kernel should work.... as long as its a I9000 kernel I don't think there would be a problem, except for the already known issues.

No, it won't. You have to use the one that glitterballs made from xcaliberinhands source and cyanogenmods kernel combined. The base i9k kernel won't work properly. Too many Samsung hooks in it I guess.

Cyanogen's appeal isn't just the ROM, there are tons of ROM builders. The Cyanogen team actually modifies the Android source quite a bit. (more so than some of the other tweaks found in some ROMs)

I don't understand. Why would this be mentioned in the Captivate section of this site? What does this mean for Captivate users?

haha, good question. I think it's when you modify a kernel to work for another device. So, you would re-orient a I9000 kernel to work on a Captivate. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong. Better yet, elaborate if I'm right.

I'm fairly certain the name derives from the fact that an i9000 ROM would be rotated 90 degrees without it.

Now LG say 2.3 after the summer on swedish site

That must be a joke,
but by the way... i'm sure lg will bring android 2.3 to the 2x when cyanogen brought 3.1 alread!

There is no CM 3.1 ROM, Honeycomb is still closed source.

I'm sure he means, that by the time 3.1 (Or really ICS, 'cause HC isn't going to be opensourced) has been turned into a CM release, LG might release GB

When they realese it then CM8 would come with Ice Cream Sandwich!
I am just joking.

Wrong section - stop replying people, thread needs to die.

Why is there yet another thread about this???
We all know it was delayed, and I think more and more people know it won't come at all.
I got 2 email replies from LG. The first one said the update will come after summer for sure. The second one said there is no precise date for the update, not even after summer.
So to sum up:
n°1 LG is telling us all to go **** ourselves on this one
n°2 It's useless to open a new thread every time LG tells us to go **** ourselves
n°3 LG is ****ing ****

Froyo -> Gingerbread upgrade is not all that big. Most of you won't even know its running gingerbread vs froyo. Not sure what the big deal is.

its not about the software update, we have CM7 for that.
Its about the kernel update that we want from gingerbread.
And also, are you kidding? "most of you want know the difference" ? where do you think you are? this is XDA why do you think where here?

Pretty sure most of the people *****ing about it want it for the sake of having the number "2.3" written on the version screen as oppose to "2.2.2". What will gingerbread let you do that you can't do now?
If you're having issues with the phone (reboots/freezes etc) then fair enough otherwise just chill. It's just a phone.

I had a HTC Legend before Optimus 2X. And when the stable cm7 rom was running in my phone it was WAY faster then with any stable custom Froyo-rom. And 2.3 looks very nice. 2.3 also has the Screen-off animation, and a function to select text in messages and on webpages to easier copy, edit or delete parts.
Thats what I can remember I miss atm..

Yeah you're right, we need the kernel to produce better and stable CM7s or other gingerbread builds >< If only we could get our hands on one single Optimus 2x kernel source code ><

Dont know if you have tried CM7 lately but its VERY stable, at this point the only thing we need LG to fix is maybe the battery drivers

Gb will surely bring a lot of stuff to o2x as I understand. Most important imho proper use of dual core and gtalk videochat. Guess a lot of people will notice the speed improvements at least.

I almost agree.... cm7 rocks and no point at all using standard rom however the battery aint so bad is it? I manage live wallpaper, fair usage on wifi, 3g and 3 hours a day audiobook ( yes works tough going lol )baseband/rij 725 and she lasts a day no problem ........ if you think thats bad you should try my wifes iphone 3gs!!!
edit:- lcd brightness is also up full tilt
edit again.... why doesnt lg/htc/etc etc hire the cm devs? as far as im aware they dont get paid much if anything other than the odd donation and a new phone here and there for a hell of a lot of work.... surely if anyone should be doing the official roms its people like them who love their work?

CM7 for Thrill

http://rootzwiki.com/topic/4883-almost-cyanogenmod-cm7-selfkang3-for-optimus3d-and-thrill/
Found this at AC.com . I apologize if this has already been posted, but I didn't see it in the development secion. This makes getting on GB a snap.
Is working great! The first few minutes, download speeds seemed really slow. But then it's picked up and it's fast.
Best part is when you long click the power button, you have the option of booting into recovery rather than having to shut the phone off and do the three button trick.

This kind of post should be in general section, as far as you are not developing yourself. Move thread.

SWEEET!
Awesome heads up on this! Been running this since you shared the great find! Seems like we finally have a promising GB and ICS future since he is also working on 4.0 port.. I wonder how he got around not needing the O3D baseband...?

arcee had worked with me. I have done some basic cyanogenmod stuff for the inspire 4g.

I have been running the CM7 build for the thrill froyo baseband, and its freaking awesome. We finally have a good solid GB with great radio working. No HDMI, no 3d, but this is fantastic. 1 week solid so far

So that's it noone else posting
I want to try the new rom from Ueshada is a GB rom
but I wonder if doing this first will let me flash his rom
or will it get stuck at a bootloop or worse have a brick on my desk

Also, the proper link to the CM7 nightly downloads is:
http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?type=nightly&device=p925

Installed the latest build last night myself. Working wonders so far. Never cared much about 3D after the initial 'wow' factor. Never used HDMI. Everything else seems to be working with a few quirks here and there. Can't believe how much faster the phone is over the stock Froyo crap. Was sick and tired of waiting for AT&T and LG to pull their heads out of their @$$ and update the phone. I very much appreciate the hard work everyone has put forth getting these GB CM7 roms out for the Thrill.

Had no issues. Currently running cm_p925_full-4.zip with google addons myself. A few random reboots but no more than stupid stock Froyo did. Very happy with it so far.
Echo is an issue. They evidently have something wrong with the noise cancellation mic on these builds. To fix the issue turn down your volume while in a call or the person on the other end will hear themselves echo. Hopefully it'll be fixed in one of the next releases.

Will there ever be a working ICS for us?

I love my DROID 3, its a great phone with and has been holding me down for a while. But i am itching to try something different and really the development for DROID 3 is small. We have all these versions of ICS "gummy bear" or whatever and none of them have working camera or bluetooth. I know this is something that may or may not be able to be worked out, but what gives? Does anyone know if we'll ever have ICS on the DROID 3

I don't think that we will see a fully working ICS on this device anytime soon. The main thing that is missing from ICS for our phones are the HWCodecs. Without them, it will never be complete. Hashcode is having a hard time getting them to work. Also, all the ICS roms that you see out now are built from the same base so they all have the same problems.

Camera and front facing camera work on all builds.camcorder doesn't work.Bluetooth works on all builds, but sometimes you lose audio if you have Bluetooth on with no device connected.just cycle bt off and on in that case.
To answer your question, no we won't unless there's an ics leak for the d3.

The simple answer is: no, we won't. The long answer you can find on "hash of codes" blog.

The saddest thing is HASHCODE this in only one person on this planet who worked on ICS for D3
Like i sed before on other topic, its not a problem have a full wroking ICS on D3 but it take a lot of work
The same was with Milestone 1 and Gingerbread, Kabaldan do everything for milestone 1 even ICS
This is very very sad, because is a lot of people who will do everything for D3 but they dont have sufficient skills like Kabaldan / HasHcode and others etc.

When you're looking to weekend devs as your only source of code development on hardware less than a year old ... (xt860 was released in Canada august 4th 2011) it's a sign of a ****ty manufacturer. Hardware quality is there but w/out software/manufacturer support it's sort of useless.
