[Q] Porting Cyanogenmod bluetooth to gingerbread roms (for wiimote) - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

As of now, only cyanogenmod and MIUI are the only roms I know of that use compatible bluetooth. As I am fairly new to coding and do not think I could take on the job myself, I would like to know:
What controls bluetooth? (Modem, Rom, Kernel, Bootloader etc..)
Would it be possible to extract the bluetooth properties from cyanogenmod and implant them on a gingerbread rom?
Can someone please attempt this?
I decided to update to gingerbread and left this feature behind. after almost hard bricking my phone in the process, I will not be flashing back to froyo. I am currently running Illuminance 3.0 it that has any relevence.
Thank you .

As for what controls bluetooth, the kernel is essentially what interfaces with the bluetooth hardware. But the bluetooth controls are present in the ROM

[Q] AOSP ROM for Galaxy S?

Hey guys, been out of the loop for a while as I've been settled on JPY for a few weeks now. However, I saw a friend flash his Desire today with Oxygen, a gingerbread-based AOSP ROM. All the SGS ROMs I can find so far are based on the stock Samsung firmware - is there any work being done on a full AOSP ROM like Oxygen or Cyanogen? I can't find any details about this anywhere.
I am very curious about this question. Because if answer is simply no, it's time to sell Galaxy S. Gingerbread will be the last update from Samsung and AOSP could be the future of this phone then CM7 for SGS seems to have big problems and it's the only AOSP ROM for SGS which I'm aware of...
What big problems?
I'm using CM7 for a month right now and it's pretty stable if i can say. Yes, it lacks some features and some bugs are not fixed yet (theres a workaround tho), but if you follow it's thread the progress they make are great. They're already into mainline, so probably it will reach RC status in a month/maybe less, who knows.
After the devs are done, i think there will be a custom ROM based on CM7/AOSP.

CM7 is getting there. And with Gingerbread coming out, that should make things easier for the dev.
Yes, but with no source then there is nothing big. GB leak, only helped them with "less" important stuff (FM radio, etc.)

[Q] Confusion about gingerbread

If we have CM7 and kernels for 2.3, and leaks of 2.3 from the i9000 and are able to use gingerbread base from nexus s ( think thats what cm7 uses? i cant remember...so if its wrong just insert name of correct phone back there), why is it that we havnt seen anything other than Cyanogen mod and MIUI (which doesnt even count cause its still just the CM7 base) on the 2.3 homefront? I am by no means complaining, just kind of confused. I would think that devs would be chomping at the bit to get their hands on 2.3 for their phones and start their rom modding magic. Anyone have some insight on this other than some sort of sarcastic remark or derogatory comment? lol
we only have the aosp source. and with that why port a basic aosp rom if you can have cyanogen? also there is miui. these are probably the most requested roms on any android version on any phone. an m9 port would be nice but i think the devs that can make the aosp ports better are part of these two projects. so rather than waisting time porting aosp and doing something original and asking the cm7 guys how they fixed this or that they are helping the cm7 and miui projects. also there are still problems and limitations with cm vs samsung. cm7 cant use the camera to it's full abilities. also samsung music player supports more codecs. plus the samsung roms are easier to port allowing time to work on features and tweeks. the reason the i9000 gingerbread hasnt bee built into a captivate rom is that without kernel source the roms would not be as functional as a 2.2.1 port or even cm7 because they would have problems reorienting the sensor mapping and remapping the headset. when samsung source drops there will be much more gingerbread roms and when cm7 is official there will be spinoffs
No source, no kernel, no ROM.

[Q] New Rom Suggestions??

Not a total expert on flashing done it once to Paragon and I liked it. Its getting a little flaky occasional force stops etc. I would like to know whats the opinion on Gingerbread roms. Need bluetooth to work and able to listen to music via bluetooth earpiece (AD2P). Paragon seems to no longer be in development and I want to try a gingerbread Rom. Anything I should know I might not about flashing to a Gingerbread Rom??
Continuum 5.6! ftw!
No one can tell you what rom you should run as it will depend greatly on your device.

[Q] why a2dp and radio on modaco and not cm?

Hi,
I wonder why a2dp, hdmi, radio is working fully on modaco rom and cyanogenmod needs nvidia 's source to get that working, even thought both roms are gingerbread? Is it a question of kernel? hack? What is the magic?
Thank you.
Modaco's is based off LG's release, rather than publically available sources.
Thank you for your answer.
And what would prevent CM team to use the LG release to get all these things to work? I have even seen somewhere that LG released the source of their rom.
If I understand it right it has nothing to do whit LG´s sources instead it´s Nvidia who has to release their sources.
Correct me if im wrong but CM is based on google source and Modaco (Paul) tweaks stock rom from LG/NVidia. Stock roms have all the features of the phone working including a2dp and fm radio, however CM doesn't. CM also has problems with HDMI mirroring due to overscan i think.
Yeah, it is very different from Windows. A driver in Windows usually work in XP, Vista and Seven while in Android, well I don't know how it works.

[Q] imilka aosp tethering prob

running imilkas aosp v07 and have noticed that when i tether to my mbp it downloads suuuuper slow, on stock it used to fly. anyone know how to fix this?
a detailed response would be awesome as im pretty new to the custom rom game.
proably because stoick was gingerbread with fully written driverts for the device and the ICS is a leak and has hacked drivers etc to make it work on the device, there is no guarantee its going to be the same until samsung release ics
thanks for the input mate but i doubt there's no way to rectify it without waiting for official ics. otherwise it would be listed as a bug...which its not.
