Why no kernels - HTC Rezound

I understand that some people are making ics rooms and other types of roms like miui. But why are they all getting stopped because there are no kernels for them. What is stopping the kernels from being developed?

I think we need the ics kernel source code

It should be possible to make our own kernel from AOSP source code no? I mean, the Droid Eris has a working ICS beta build and working kernel and there hasn't been an "official" Android release for Eris past 2.1.... as far as I know Froyo and Gingerbread were both ported to it from scratch as well.

Dev's now-a-days are stretched thin with how many phones there are out. Most of them are concerned with supporting ROMs and not working on other development outside of that.

CM7 development?

I understand that ICS roms will come in the future after the kernel has been leaked or recreated and/or there is a full stock ICS leak, but isnt it possible to create a CM7 rom with the materials we have available? I just wanted to know if CM7 development is a possibility right now. Thanks

Same reason why there is 15 million different linux distros. Not everyone cares about ics. Hype my friend.. The word hype its just not there for everyone.

I know CM9 is coming SOON but I'm talking about right now. CM7 roms would be infinitely more feasible than debloated edited themed stock roms. Not to say the devs aren't doing an amazing job

How is cm7 obsolete? Or dated for that matter, so how obsolete is stock gingerbread?? I think cm7 is a great rom, with endless ways of customizing, with tons of themes already in the market for free, is just like saying what's the point of all these Roms in our note android development forum because there all based on stock gingerbread . I think cm7 would be a great addition for those that think ginger is it and don't care much for an ics update, but that's my opinion. I wish I had the time and knowledge with a linux environment to develop cm7 for the note.

I highly urge we talk to a developer and see if they are interested in getting this started. Unfortunately I have no experience programming or doing rom creation otherwise I would have started asap loving the devs we got here though

I'm a fan of cm7 and would definitely love to see it but don't think we will see a official one from cyanogenmod. Kang is most likely.

Development

This is just my opinion and I know I'm probably going to get bashed for it, but I just don't see the development for this phone picking up. It's nothing to do with the developers we have because I think they're great, but just a matter of bad timing. With the One X and SGS3 coming out it seems to me that the developers we could get are holding out for those phones. I really wish it would pick up because I think this phone has a lot of potential. What is everyone else's opinion? Does this sound like a logical conclusion?
Maybe if this phone came it at a different time it would be a different story.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
Development is delayed simply because theres no kernel source for ics on the note, so no custom kernels are holding out development, also no vendor/binary source available to build from source, I've been looking at what we need for developing cm9 but I hd some issues with my laptop so that was delayed, I'm sure once we get more sources we will see more development.

I've been thinking about getting into some rom development for this phone. I'm smart enough to do it but I just haven't taken the time to learn how yet. I don't know where to start. Kinda wanna learn from a developer.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
With the phone being only 2 months old tomorrow and no kernel yet, I think there's been a lot of development. When the kernel comes this phone will take off.
yeah, I think it will pick up too once an actual source ICS is released, which I bet comes pretty soon..
And 2 new roms just dropped this morning

The revamped rom. It's not brand new but they did a lot of fixing from rc1

I agree with RoloRacer...
Once developers get the ics kernel source, I'm sure we will see a lot more roms popping up. I think we have enough great developers, but they need the proper tools before they can start building. We just need to be patient.
That being said, I'm a rom junkie myself...so I feel your pain....just be strong!

There are multiple roms and themes for gingerbread, as well as a few roms and themes for ICS.
What are you expecting, 10 pages of roms?
The ics kernel isn't even released yet.

Cm9

If cm9 is on the touch pad which uses the snapdragon just as we do, and we have a ics leak why can't we have cm9 yet? I know when I had my epic 4g touch like a day after the samsung ics leak dropped someone built a cm9 rom... Please don't flame. I'm mearely asking a question in the q & a thread... Thanks!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
I'm guessing it's the lack of kernel source.
But they don't have kernel source for ics on the epic 4g touch either... They built a tweaked Gingerbread kernel to run cm9. And I couldn't tell a difference it ran a amazingly

I was thinking that it was the lack of kernel source, but I don't know based on the modified GB kernel post. CM9 would be awesome though. I like to keep things as stock and clean as possible. I don't even put aftermarket parts on my car LOL.

you know what devs we need here , the devs from the htc leo/hd2 that took a windows mobile phone and turned it into a development phone that could run any 5 OS like a champ, I had CM9 on my hd2 for 2 months before I got my Note and I ran AOSP ICS prior to that for a month and it's smooth as hell. We never had any kind of actual source for anything for it, actually devs were porting everything from the nexus one/nexus s/sensation/evo/incredible/desire hd and made it work , hacking all kinds of kernels , so yeah there were issues when a new port would come out like camera not working(most common issue) but never the less it always came around, now our biggest downfall is the fact that samsung decided to use two different processors with the two versions of the note, if they only would have used the same processor it would have definitely be a different ball game, it would be one forum and all the devs for the n7000 and the i717 would be working together and we would be using cm9 from the great dev imilka from the hd2 forum.
Agreed. I wish I knew how to dev. On the original evo we had great devs also... These devs just rather sit around and wait for the easy way I guess. Idk.

well I'm no dev but I'm working at trying to make the necessary changes and hopefully get imilka's cm9 booting up in our notes, but I'm confident that with the help from imilka I can get it to boot and hopefully have a working cm9 soon.

Has anyone built cm7 for the Rezound? I know I'm going backwards, but I want a stable, fully functional aosp rom til ics kernel source is released. I've searched, but don't see anything

No.
All efforts are being made for ics....working in gb would be counter productive since its been replaced by ics, and the work wouldn't translate to ics.
That's from what I've heard the last few months....

Kernel doesnt impact the RIL version wise. To my knowledge you would have to rewrite a new java RIL

still only one rom?

why no support from devs?
Because I love lamp

It's on the way, bro. It takes a while to hack up a custom kernel without source of you're looking for JB.. Also, some folks are working on CM9/10. We will probably have some more custom ROM's (I hope) after the holidays. Patience.
Sent from my LG-E970 using xda app-developers app
Yeah, there has been talk of CM/AOSP ROMS in the works, non-stock based ROMS take a lot of time to make. We have one stock based (The Base), and it has been debloated and tweaked with custom settings. There isn't much else that could be done atm.
And don't forget, we JUST got team Nocturnal, and they have stated to have things in the works, they already posted a MOD.
This phone is pretty new, we have the debloated ROM, and the rest just takes time.
