If source and official ics is out, why are there still bugs? - LG Optimus 2x

RC said that CM10 should be finished about 2 weeks after source's are released. I hate to sound ungrateful for all the devs hard work, but why are there still so many bugs on custom roms?

Odp: If source and official ics is out, why are there still bugs?
Maybe because they are trying to tie ics with jb libraries, if you are so kind, just say: Sources! Repair all rooms! Et voila...
ignorance...

Sorry, what I meant was, CM9, why are there bugs with custom ICS if source and official ROM is out?

If I'm not mistaken, what LG published was Kernel sources only. Source code for stuff such as HDMI, radio communications, etc., are not available so no one can really work on debugging ROM-related bugs without reverse-engineering everything.
Besides, we need to keep in mind that developing is something people like tonyp, pengus77, civato and others do on their free time out of passion, as a hobby. They have already done a lot of wonderful stuff, so I guess it is OK to live with a couple of minor bugs if all the major ones have been sorted out.

no more CM9 unofficial builds ?

Hi all,
I would like to find a proper CM9 Kang, meaning a build that is as close as possible to the CM9 source, with no or very little additions.
Does such a thing still exist?
Owain's build, excellent though it might be, is no longer a kang. Too many extra's...
Temasek isn't kanging for CM9, unfortunately.
Any propositions?
tia,
Tommmii.
How about the original CM9?
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/18090-cyanogenmod9-for-o2x-and-g2x-selfkang3/
not a bad idea, but there are many many improvements submitted to the git since selfkang3 rendering it definitely outdated.

Not so many "extras" that it would be "overkill". So where is the problem?
I guess you could use a KANG from Owain, before he added so many things and changed to an Unofficial build intead, try looking at build 30-35 perhaps?
I´m not familiar with any other kang´s other than the original kang´s.
But, Owain´s Builds aren´t that much different from the original CM9, I would give it a try.
Thanks Myller!
I´m now running owain´s latest build, and there´s not much difference (well there are, stability wise from the selfkang3).

I'll quote the dev, Owain94, himself :
also i think i should change the name this is not really a cm9 kang anymore...
still based in the big parts on cm9 but changed way to much
Anyway, there'll be an official ICS from LG soon, followed by official CM9 nightlies.

Unfortunately I don't see an ICS release from LG coming any time soon... Yes, they told that it would happen in Q2 this year, but they seem to dodge any question from costumers regarding that question.
I sincerely believe that we won't see any release from LG before Q3 2012...
You can use euroskank builds too, there are only some cherry picks

waiting for the final ICS

i hope all the bugs are fix the develop. i know its to hard to develop..
thnx to many developer...hooray.
Just flash the latest aokp rom its genius and i dont have any issues with it, its working even faster than the stock rom on my double speeded gt-p6200... have fun. By the way, there will never be a final ics on custom roms, there is always an idea to make it better ;-)

There is no such thing as 'bug free' buld that is why we always have new versions(builds) untill the dev team decides to move on to something new. Therefore I would imagine there won't be 'Final' ICS untill Android 5 (Jellybean) available and the dev team decides to move on to Jellybean (assuming many of us still sticking to our G-tab 7 and plenty developers still willing to crack one for us.)
However the latest builds of ICS are very stable and suitable for daily use.

Am I alone in wanting ICS/CM9?

The Jelly Bean ROM's are great, but for me there's just too many bugs.
We have the ICS source now and I'd love a stable CM9 build. Unfortunately it looks like attn1 may have moved on, and all the other devs seem to be just working on JB.
Dude your not alone...count me in for that...if i knw step by step guide to at least to compile an AOSP kernel I would do it now
i ll waiting too but however stable cm9 or cm 10 doesnt exisit by now
Be patient
No I'm waiting for CM9 o CM10 too for a valid porting of MIUI
Everyone is waiting for CM9 but we need a kernel to get everything working propably! Our devs are working on it but they have a life, too. Don't expect sb to do a one-man Jesus show here;D Be patient, we will get fully working CM9 when kernel boots up
And in the future you can post stuff like this in our famous OFF-Topic-thread Keeps the G-Sec clean

It doesn't really matter much which ROM to make - ICS based or JB based CM. Because to make a proper and stable ROM, all you need is to make a stable AOSP\AOKP compatible kernel (and we still don't have one).
PS: AFAIK CM team wont add CM9 support for any more devices, i.e. if they will make a CM for our IncS it will be JB based CM10 and not CM9.
I thought that once we had sources, the kernel would be pretty easy, but then I don't know much about it. Who is working on the kernel?
I also thought that CM would only support a phone if source was available. Since we only have ICS source right now, that would rule out CM10 wouldn't it?

Many of the CM10 ROMs don't have manufacturer source for JB (only ICS) therefore it is safe to assume that our ICS kernel can be used with CM10.
If we want official support we need a maintainer
The maintainer for the 7x30 HTC devices like ours, dhd, desire s etc
Our maintainer, Kali- moved on to Sony devices iirc
If we ask nexx and nk111 (cm devs from desire s) nicely maybe they might build for us

CM10 or CM9?

Hey guys, I'm thinking of compiling a CM ROM from source next month (have to wait for data cap to reset) and was wondering what you guys would prefer, a significantly more stable CM9, or a more buggy (and more headaches for me) CM10 ROM? I personally would prefer to do a CM9 ROM since it would be easier to support and fix bugs on, since we already have relatively stable, working builds of AOSP ICS. CM10 would be great as well, but it would be much harder for me to support, since I would be the second dev for the Inc S to build a JB ROM from source for us. I just don't think I have the know-how to be the only one working on it, and the only one fixing bugs and whatnot, without any already working source code to view and compare.
So I could compile CM9.2 stable, and we would have the latest CM9 code using kaijura's IceColdSandwich as a reference. I would have an easier time supporting the ICS ROM since I would have working source code to compare and review. Also, it would be significantly more stable simply due to the fact that multiple devs for our device have already worked on it. I'm sure I'd be able to fix bugs and support it fairly easily, other devs are the best resource around
Or I could compile a CM10 ROM. I would have to take device proprietary files from nik's JB ROM's, which would mean my compiled ROM would share a lot of the same bugs our current JB ROM's already have. I could support and fix bugs in CM10, it would just take longer and be harder to do. Nothing's impossible though, so if that's what the community wants, then that's what I'll build!
So what do you guys think? CM10 or CM9?
It's your time and effort you do what Rom you want to do. Any Rom would be great!

I'm torn between the two! On the one hand, I want a stable ROM which would be CM9, but I also love that JellyBean goodness. I've also seen some people here that simply want a stable CM9 that's up to date, and other's that want the latest CM10 despite bugs. That's the point of this thread
I would tell u is that first for cm9 when we get a stable awesome cm9 for sure it will be easy to get a cm10... btw are u going to build a kernel?
My vote goes towards CM9! been using codename for the past couple months and although i'm enjoying all the new features, i still find myself yearning for a rock solid & stable ASOP based build.

I could give it a try, but if nik and others couldn't get a 3.0 kernel up and running for AOSP, then I'll have a damn hard time. I'd prefer to have someone else make the new kernel, I don't know much about compiling them. Till then, I would just use X-ICS4.0 for the kernel.
Make a CM9, CM10 would have in the end too much bugs and they would just chance again. I'm waiting for a stable cm9 anyway

cm9 bro! because ics kernel source is out and bugs can be fixed!
Yeah. CM9 would be OK for me too. I can help with testing if needed.
But what would be those great JB features we would be missing out? Sry I haven't been following the differences between 4.0 and 4.1.
IncS community is desperate for at least one fully functional, bugless AOSP ROM, so my vote goes for CM9
CM9 bro..wishing for bugless one.. gud luck..

My 2 cents.
CM9. Kernel sources for ICS has been release by HTC and ANY AOSP rom that is stable would be very welcome in our community.
(I know there is gingerbread roms.. But.. Its ginger bread..)
Jelly Bean is nice and all,
But the odds of getting a stable AOSP rom are much higher with cm9.
CM9 I would say. I hope you can fix data problems for Vodafone NL users. We always have problems with data connection on AOSP ROMs.
CM9 would be great....!!
Its great to see devs are enthusiasticaly working on Roms..!!
You are the one dude...

My request would be neither CM9 nor CM 10.... it will be great if you can work on Kernel Version 3.... Becz that is the only roadblock for us for Jelly Bean and would open doors for may developers to come up with fresh and exciting jelly bean ROMs.....Why stay behind the world guys... lets target Jelly bean step by step.....who knows if you start working on kernel it may really turn out to be good.....Try for kernel bro......all the best.. try to compile it from source....
A rock solid cm9 would be great!

Still last LG phone I bought..

The last month all P990 users became very happy!
We had the V28 leak and a lot of good devs made it stable even made a zip (Thanks tonyp) so we could easily install it via CWM.
After that we had RC gave us CM10!!!! Ofc we bypassed CM9 but no problem by me, and now every day we have new version with bug fixes!
Thanks RC!! You made our 2x rock again! And our top devs will start producing their own CM10 based roms at the end of the month!!
BUT what has LG done?? It's the 9th of November and still no official ICS or JB... We like playing with our 2x and trying kernels, BB, roms,
scripts and much more. But what of the thousands of 2x owners who won't root their phone?? If ICS was released we all would have stable CM9
and 10 and we wouldn't fight with bugs. Don't get me wrong, I am very happy for the progress of the last month but I am very disappointed from LG.
Thanks to all devs who keep our phone alive! :good::good::good:
and you make this thread for .............. ??
let us noob hanging around here FREE PORN
i gotta say.. even with all the work RC has done for us.. and the work of the rest of devs.. this phone is still trash... once i get enough cash im gonna toss it into outer space..
