Root ICS/CM9-JB/CM10 Development Thread

Test build is here.

This is untested. It is a Sprint version of the ROM I've been using (I use VM).

Build notes:

Used i9003 audio stuff. Device audio is not working, bluetooth audio is working. You can get audio working by copying the necessary files from the FOP ROM, but I'm not going to detail how to do that.

Used Bloodawn's prebuilt init binary, since I can't get mine to boot. :(

Kernel is Bloodawn's HyperICS v2.0 built on my box with linaro 4.6. It uses gzip instead of lzma because I'm eventually going to build from source during the main build.

rild is slow to come up. Need to see if that is fixable.

What works:

Screen, keys, RIL, wifi, bluetooth. Probably SMS.

What does not work:

Anything and everything else.

Next steps:

Make audio work.
Fix ics init binary.

Like Monster said. This test was for sprint. My marquee is boost. Can't recall what I saw. The message said it was saved to my sd card. Can't find it now in the rom manager folder. Oh well. I can be patient and wait for the boost version. I appreciate all the hard work you and everyone else has been putting into this project. Can't wait to see the end result. If you ever want a boost mobile tester my phone is at your service.

im uploading a boost one. i deleted mms since it wasnt going to work. edited the build.prop and swapped the apn-config. Its still very very much a test rom. make note of all the things tdm said do not work.

edit: LINK


Thanks Monster. I understand it's a test. To be in on the ground level is what makes it so rewarding.
