Has anyone ported cm7 to this device yet? and if so where can i find it?, and if no, is there anyone working on it?
As far as I know, no one has built CM7 successfully for this device. There is a post in the dev section entitled "ICS Port" where a user has been trying to build either CM7 or CM9 but has had limited success. As far as I know he has not been able to get his build to boot.

Does anyone know where I can get the Vibrant device driver binaries? I'm trying to learn how to compile Android from source.
I decided to try to compile Gingerbread for Vibrant since CM7 is already very robust. I tried to use the GM7 binaries, but maybe I'm not doing it right. I got it all downloaded, but when I use the "lunch" program, I get an error saying it can't find VibrantMTD or something along that line.
Some help from someone with more experience, please? I'm but a student.
*bump* Anyone?
I've looked at CM7, Teamhacksung, and Onecosmics github/google codes and haven't found them. Odd, because they already have ROMs working for the Vibrant, so I thought they would have the drivers up, too.
Maybe I should try compiling CM7 from source... perhaps the drivers are already integrated with the ROM.
Has anyone been daring enough to try it with CM9/AOKP?
I know he specifies that it is working with certain ported I9100 roms, and that AT&T leaks aren't supported... According to the thread he's writing up something about it later... I'm just curious before I go messing things up. - even with a Nandroid. I'm impatient!! lol
Here is the original thread in the DEV section...

If anyone has tried it (SetCPU included, maybe even overclock)? Please give me some insight... Maybe even an "about phone" screenshot with Kernel version info, blah blah... Thanks!
P.S. Do we still need to have Kernels matching modems? I don't need a brick.
No - use CM9 or Fenny's kernels for those. He says it in quite a few places, but I am unable to look it up right now.
Can someone please link me to the thread regarding Fenny's Kernel?
Search isn't helping at all.
NVM - Got it.

What's the point of using it on CM9? It has NOTHING the CM9 kernel doesn't have. NOTHING.
OK, maybe it has one fix that hasn't gotten through gerrit yet, but going forward, don't expect there to be much difference between my kernels and the CM9 kernels given that I have push access to teamhacksung's kernel repo.
Sorry everybody, I meant to post in in the Gen9 section. I understand if you all hate me
Did you mean to post it in the Gen9 Section? If so, make a thread there.
I'm interested in CM9 on gen8 so yes! I tried to build using the ICS files out there and was ultimately unsuccessful.
He posted it here by mistake. He meant to post it at the G9 section.
sure, who would not love having CM9 / ICS an our tablets. But let's be realistic, I could think of no way how ICS could run on a gen8 in a way I'd call usable.
As postet before, that is not true.
ICS doesn't need more memory then Froyo.
There is a running and well functioning CM9 for the Milestone.
And the Milstone has a closed bootloader and therefor has a not changeable kernel that doesn't have swap and because of second boot lacks 30-40MB memory.
So if there would be someone like kabaldan working in the port it would be possible.
Hello
No thanks, I would content myself with a stable 2.3.7 version
Closed due to wrong section
Hey guys!
I would just like to ask a few questions that I've failed to find answers on that I deem reliable. I have installed custom ROMs before, just not on the RAZR.
Firstly, is there any ICS, or better yet, JB update that works for me that live in Sweden? I would prefer JB, but only if its stable and functional.
Following up on the question about JB, I'm pretty sure I read about somebody running JellyBean Cyanogen on their razr? Is this correct, and if so, how is the experience, and where do I fetch it? (I have looked on cyanogenmods website, but I can't find my specific phone, only the Droids, and they dont even look the same)
So if no Cyanogen exists of Jellybean, one with ICS would be just as good. What I want in short terms is pretty much someone to point me onto how to get a stable ICS or JB release on my RAZR.
Could anybody help me out?
Hey, i've flashed cwm on my tablet recently but i dont know what to do now. I have the android 2.3 installed and i want to install ICS, my device is not/was not supported by the recovery, can i install any ICS on the forum? Do i need a specific one? Should i make my own port?
Also, i was able to root the device (the gingerbreak reboot) and i have access to / and was able to install CWM but most apps say i dont have root, is there anything i can do?
First rule is u never ever, ever install anything not for your device. Doing so, probably a hardbrick is waiting along the corner.
So, even if i install CWM i wont be able to install any ROM? Cant i just pick a ROM for other device and port it?
yes u can port a rom from another device if the the original device got almost identical hardware to yours. but that is not an easy job.
or u could build rom from source if u capable of, more chance of fixing bugs than ported rom. cm source is freely available on github, cm9 to be precise if you're looking into getting ics rom. cm7 (gb) would be easier because u already got stock gingerbread rom.
