Root Developer Team Optimus M Discussion

Lol, I'm telling you what we currently have....you should contact BobZhome (on AC) and tripdoc79 (on AF) and drewwalton (on AC). They know the most about these phones and building. There are other people too.

for sure my dude, but where do up and comers come from without a begining? im telling u a 3.0 base kernel isnt necessary for an ics port

there is an obvious difference in phone ability lol. Making a phone with 4.0 native software to work on something backwards (eg. 3.0.8 or what ever) isnt difficult. The optimus m is a completely different phone with different limitations. I dont believe an ICS port to be out of the question but a honeycomb port seems absurb.

you have lost my faith sir.

the kernel and the ANDROID OS work together. when referring to a 3.0 kernel, it is implied Linux(kernel) 3.+/Android(ICS)4.+

I don't think thats our kernel...

i was told that the msm project would be a good starting point for qualcomm kernels. (The Optimus m runs on a 600 MHz Qualcomm MSM7627 - ARM11 processor) Was i given "disinfo" ?

As a side note, (operating on the assumption i got the incorrect one) can someone point me the direction of the correct kernel source?

[edit because i cant spell lmao]

We are a 600MHz ARMv6 processor.....go look at BobZhomes github for kernel source. I told you to talk to him and some others. ;)
