It's sad that I feel the need to say this... I've searched already or I wouldn't be asking it..
I'm assuming that whenever "they" get the ICS source that it'll eventually be ported to the TP... And was assuming that it'll be much easier porting ICS to the TP since there will already be a GB port and much of it will be "re-usable"? Or is it like starting from scratch all over again?..
Once the source code of ICS is posted the Cyanogen (core?) team will work on making CM8 which will be the ICS version of CM and then the CM-Touchpad team will make it compatible with the Touchpad using the same (if possible) drivers and techniques to do the dual boot with WebOS.

That's what I was thinkin.. thanks
yeah, as soon as source is out I think it'll be be hitting this device hard
All I can say is I cannot wait for the source code to be released. I'm way impatient now, thanks to the new teaser dual boot video and chompers android "port".

Before the galaxy s? Is there any hope for a pure gingerbread and it looks like the evo is off and running with it smooth as butter with a minor hitch with gps issues... not sure how that works, the galaxy s and nexus s are almost identical hardware wise.

Looks like a lot of their roms are AOSP (Android Open Source Project) based. This means they can take the direct source of Android and modify their roms to the Evo hardware. Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't believe anyone has built a good solid working rom for the Vibrant off of the AOSP source alone. We've been getting builds leaked from Samsung and modifying them to build the Vibrant roms you see now. I believe Team Whiskey is working on a AOSP rom and Cyanogen Mod is an AOSP rom that they are working on porting over to Vibrant. Master/Devs4Android released an AOSP clone. I believe someone else said they have Gingerbread working and they are just bug fixing at the moment.

Thanks for the insight mate, appreciate it. Just interesting.

I would venture to say that the Evo is usually the first phone to have this stuff ported to it. It's a high demand phone to get the best ROM's on so it usually gets them first. Don't get me wrong, I love my Vibrant, and so does Team Whiskey so they're working on 2.3, they have it ported but it's experimental still, they'll let us know when it's working. But as far as CyanogenMod goes, they usually port to the Evo first.
Where is the download link for this rom? When I search "Evo 2.3" I don't get any vibrant roms.
Silly developers forgetting links
</sarcasm>
also keep in mind, once the Vibrant 2.2 source is put out the devs will have easier time porting 2.3 also
How's the battery life on this rom? Can I flash it with clockwork mod? Do I have to disable voodoo?

How is 2.2 source going to help with 2.3 code? That's like saying 2.1 source for our kernels helped us build a 2.2 build for our hardware.

Its funny when the witty comments just arent witty anymore.. i told my friend id get a bunch of trolls saying stuff like "does this wipe sd card" "do i need to disable voodoo"... its really old now, first person that ever did it got a chuckle... but i do agree that having 2.2 code prolly wouldnt help too much being its a porting...

So I posted this on the AOKP forums and was told someone would need to port and maintain the ROM. If so then we get an AOKP version...so any of our talented Devs wanna give it a shot? I would but I'm not a Dev/Coder so I wouldnt get far lol...I'm sure I'm not the only one that would love AOKP, I know CM9 is being built...but its far from finished if you've tried it then you know what I mean...So how about it Devs?

Not a dev either, but have to second this. AOKP is a very fine ROM and would be a great addition to the TFP.
when CM is here I believe AOKP is very possible, if it is wanted I'm sure someone will port it;-)

Here is a Link but no idea what it offers..
AOKP ROM is amazing.
I had a Droid Incredible before and was a Avid CM7 user. Never liked anything but CM7...
Then I got the GNex and since CM9 isn't really out yet, I had to settle, or so I thought.
AOKP has more features than you could ever imagine. Roman and the other devs do a great job of adding features. They also are active in the forums so if you have a feature request, they normally will add it if possible.
That said, I am not sure I will switch to CM9 when it is officially released for the GNex.
It is based off of the CM9 source, but he modifies it like crazy. Very stable on the GNex.
Yeah, I'm waiting with baited breath for AOKP for my prime. It was ported for my OG EVO & was the only alpha build i didn't ditch within a day in the whole time i've owned the phone. Roman is really on the cutting edge of truly original & helpful tweaks. Shoot, I was only savvy enough to be able to use maybe 2/3 of what he had in there. A power user's wet dream. Plus pink unicorns dripping with butter? C'mon! (You'll just have to check it out if this doesn't make sense)
Giefmeaokp! Aokp would be sweet. I'm refreshing the dev forum every 5 secs waiting for custom roms n kernels to pop up!

Just for the record, AOKP is NOT based off the CM9 source. Both are based off the AOSP main source tree. Certain features might be incorporated from one to the other, but that is simply the beauty and benefit of open source.
Roman is definitely following his own vision with AOKP and the results are impressive.
So word is if someone is willing to "maintain" AOKP on the TP it is likely we can get it ported.
I have no idea what that means, but I think it means this:
-Maintaining Thread
-Building and testing new builds
-Bug Fixes
I have little to no idea how to do this, so if anyone is capable then we might be able to get AOKP.

a kang, means stolen code. So it's a rom based on cm9 with tweaks. That's the short version.

If we are using kang rom it is safe ?
Kang doesn't mean stolen. You can't steal open source code...
Kang means it was compiled by someone that isn't part of the official team/the person who made the code & isn't officially supported. So like when people say "Self-Kang" it means that they made the code themselves, but it's not officially supported by CM.

KANG does mean stolen code m8, it's a very old term, and it's not something specific to android or open source software.
I'll try to find a article for you.
Sent from my HTC Desire S using xda premium
This is from another forum:
This is the definition you would look for in Wikipedia Kang - A term used for stealing others intellectual property and claiming it as your own. (ie. When a developer uses another developer's work, and then publishes the end product as their own.)
Like building a cyanogen rom from source and making small edits and redistributing it. Not exactly as bad as it sounds like the definition suggests... sometimes, it it.

Or...why not just look here on XDA, in their WIKI, and see how XDA defines it?

As mentioned, you can't kang open source'd code.
You can, however, fail to attribute that code, and that's generally what kang'd refers to now.

Does anyone know of an AOKP build for the nook tablet 16g?
I ask because I like AOKP and in the current state of cm9 development it offers far more settings. If their isn't would it be as simple as compiling the source code with the 2.6 kernel.
It should work if it's working with CM9. The only thing is that it's more work to do and it's not really worth it when there is so much to fix with ICS right now.
Id try from source if I could get the device files and my aokp source would build. Maybe I'll try a quick port for fun.
No.
CM9 is the only ICS based rom in development. I don't know if there are any gingerbread versions of AOKP but if there is, someone could probably port it using the CM7 code.

I'd love to be able to compile it but for some reason I cant get the source code to compile even an official device and it did work before so my pc is setup. I did do a quick port using the zips but have tons of force closes I need to figure out. I'll play around and see if I can get m5 to work. Obviously it will still have every issue that the current cm9 has.
And AOKP is only ICS

The Atrix Dev Team has not released an official CM9 because ICS for the Atrix has not been released, hence there are no Atrix-specific drivers available to use. The unofficial CM9 ports (I hate that stupid term "kang") are Frankenstein monsters cobbled together from the current CM9 sources, with some code and drivers from other phones (and maybe even some CM7 code) thrown into the mix. Even though they do work, there are still problems and performance issues, which is to be expected from a cobbled-together ROM. Basically, nothing can happen until ICS for the Atrix is released, which will provide the necessary drivers and resources for an official CM9 port to happen.
