Is mean work on Razr too??
CM9 will bring this to our RAZR as soon as the ICS source will be released by Moto..

Linaro optimizes code by Ice Cream Sandwich, and in part will be included in CyanogenMod 9.
If motorola unlock bootloaders, there will be no problems.

Quoted from Android Police.com... "Basically, parts of the Linaro code have been submitted to the CM9 gerrit and are currently awaiting approval. Once commited, these tweaks will be added to the main CM9 code, giving all supported devices a drastic increase in performance."
CM9 is already implementing parts of it into there programming, so yes it is coming to Razr. Oh and SPC_Hicks has parts of it in one of his ROMS already...

No problems???
1. Linaro does not have drivers for many Razr devices (audio, camera and etc)
2. Linaro kernels very unstable (12.04 linaro kernel RELEASE even can't boot on Pandaboard!!!)
I have Pandaboard and Now I understand that Linaro is group of researchers that never release even beta versions....only APLHA. All Linaro builds have many bugs but instead of fix it they move forward to next Linux version with new features and bugs. ALL Linaro versions have big issues with NATIVE TI audio!!! 2 YEARS and they still can't fix it!!!
Are you still want alpha code from linaro???

I can't wait for a fully functional CM9. The biggest gripe I have right now is the fact that the ICS keyboards are atrocious. They are laggy and miss my keypresses left and right. I can't stand it and have since gone back to GB.

I saw a post for the Droid Bionic and Droid 3, recently. It is the "[Alpha4] Ics4Bionic Preview" thread on the droidforums.net forums. I can not link it here since I am new and have less than 8 posts (search it on Google).
In short, they both got an Alpha version of an ICS ROM. As far as I know, neither got the ICS OTA update yet. And, as far as I can tell, both still have a locked bootloader. Still, they seem to be running an ICS ROM with Android 4.0.1. How is this possible? Without a bootloader, we don't have the ability to load a custom kernel, right? But then, how did these devs load Android 4.0.1 (aka ICS) on the Bionic and Droid 3?
Also, I was wondering, if Moto and Verizon don't plan to show this phone some love and release an ICS OTA update, can we still get it somehow in the form of a port by some dev?
i honestly don't get all the hype of Ice cream sandwich
does it improve the camera quality? video camera quality?
battery life? flash performance?
bring GPU acceleration to UI?
i haven't heard any of those but somehow people gets excited on seeing their number going from 2.3.4 to 2.3.5
atleast thats how i see it. peace
From the buzz around the Net there are a few devs working on ICS ROMs for the X2. I'm not entirely sure about a leak or port of the fw, but I know from nitroglycerin33's twitter he has been working on a re-vamp of the Eclipse ROM with tons of ICS touches and tweaks. So look out for that.

I haven't. heard any tegra 2 phone that is confirmed to get ics
Akaik, droid 3 is using ti omap4 which has different gpu than x2
If thats the case, then it is possible that x2 wont have gpu acceleration seeing no tegra 2 device is confirmed to have.
Even atrix 4g which is heavily marketed and have twice the ram of x2 isnt confirm either
Which would make ics kinda pointless
I am more interested on the blue hue camera fix and camcorder autofocus for x2 more than anything else

It is possible to get an ics rom but we have to be patient. A few great devs have been working hard on getting a working 2nd init and have been very successful. Its really only a matter of time. Although we might see an ics rom, it wont have all the features of ics.

Exactly, stuff that really doesn't matter though, like the on-screen buttons, I think would have no place on a physical keyed phone like the x2. Motorola, if they are planning anything at all, should have it announced at least by January.
I don't think we will get an official update to ics. Just a ported rom. Essentially it would just be the updated ui and maybe a few performance tweeks. If you want to get the full experience of what 4.0 has to offer, you will have to get a phone built for it.

I looked and didnt see in the dev section, but any idea if this would be coming to the Razr?
http://cdn.androidpolice.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Cid_thumb.png
News started to trickle out this week about a new Android build called Linaro. Basically, it takes stock Android 4.0.4 and makes it super-fast, and super-awesome(er). In fact, it can boost performance by up to 100 percent over stock. Considering how fast and fluid stock Android 4.0.x already is (especially compared to older versions of the OS), that's quite impressive. Don't take my word for it, though, here's one of the main Linaro guys, Bernhard Rosenkranzer, showing it off on a TI Pandaboard. The Pandaboard features the OMAP 4430 processor (the same one that's in the Droid RAZR), so this is definitely a real-world example of what Linaro is capable of:

Not to be a **** but, its called the search box, it's there for a reason. 5 seconds latter and here a 2 of the threads:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1701816&highlight=linaro
But on the topic, the Linaro code has to be accepted and approved by Cyanogen Mod then integrated into the based code of CM9 then the CM9 base has to be ported to the Razr, so it will probably be sometime before we see this in action. And, that assumes the locked bootloader doesn't cause the razr to not be able to take advantage of these mods.
Hey guys!
Yesterday I read an article about "CyanogenMod no longer delivers support for devices with snapdragons 1"
And as our device is a "cooper one", it seems we are not gonna make it..
Source 1: "CyanogenMod ya no entregará soporte para equipos con Snapdragon S1" - bitly.com/MCS7bU
Source 2: "CyanogenMod formally confirms ceased support for Snapdragon S1 devices past Gingerbread" - bitly.com/MCSGT5
And here is the official post of Cyanogenmod's Team (from Google+):
CyanogenMod 01/08/2012
CM 9+, N1 (and other S1 SoC)
The Nexus One, along with the other first generation Snapdragon devices (devices with the QSD8x50, MSM7x25, MSM7x27 and MSM7x27T SoCs), will not be supported beyond the CM 7.x (Gingerbread) branch.
We’ve been holding off on finalizing this, looking for ways that we could make this work and be happy with the release. Sadly, it never panned out, and we’ve decided that it’s time to stop our efforts.
The Nexus One in particular would have required a custom hboot to repartition the internal memory (which itself was limited to 512 MB, like most devices of that generation) and the proprietary libs available (from 2.3) would have required compromises in the CyanogenMod code that we are not willing to make. The wide variety of MSM7x2x(T) devices, on top of these problems, also have a complete lack of media libraries that are compatible with the new APIs introduced in ICS (video decoding and encoding, specifically). The pieces just aren’t there.
Does the capability to run ICS or Jellybean exist on these devices? Yes, with enough time, effort, and hacks it can be made to work. Do we feel the experience is worth all of that? No.
To measure our releases, we use the same subjective criteria as users do: “speed”, “jank”, “butter”, but also factor in user experience (UX) and other intangibles. However, beyond this is something that we can (and do) use as a ‘pass or fail’ mechanism, the Android Compatibility Test Suite. The CTS is used by device manufacturers to ensure that their changes to Android source do not break Android API, platform and other standards. This, in turn, brings stability to the Play Store for app developers. Breaking CTS would lead to a bad and inconsistent experience for app devs, which in turn would lead to a bad experience for you guys as users. If CyanogenMod was perceived to be blatantly violating CTS, developers could eventually blacklist CyanogenMod users from using their apps (or worse, Google could blacklist CyanogenMod from the Play Store altogether). No one would win by going down that path.
If, in the future, a solution is found that passes CTS, we will revisit the topic.
For users that are adamant about trying to run ICS and beyond, options exist. We are not going to recommend other builds however, as they are more than likely breaking CTS, and therefore our quality assurance standards as well. You can find them if you look in the usual places.
-The CyanogenMod Team
Edit The list of affected devices are as follows: blade, bravo, bravoc, buzz, c660, click, cooper, desirec, e510, e720, es209ra, espresso, hero, heroc, inc, legend, liberty, morrisson, motus, one, p500, passion, robym, s5670, supersonic, tass, u8150, u8220, z71, zero

He means future support, that means future updates will take longer because now porting is needed to make it work.
The title is wrong.
You should say we won't get future support from Cyanogenmod.
AOSP still can be compile from source I guess.

We never had and never will have OFFICIAL CM9+ support. UNOFFICIAL builds are what we'll have to live on..
Is this just saying that we wont have official CM9/CM10 support (which we all knew)?
Or is it saying that we will no longer get support from them for CM7?

Avatar rom 3.0.2 7/26 nightly with new jbx kernel stable for me 9000 + scores on antutu.

Sent from my XT912 using xda premium
Well, 4.3 is in progress. The main problem is that 4.3 includes some newer security updates - there aren't much UI related changes though, most of it is security stuff which affects the kernel in the first way. The problem we have is the current kexec kernel loading method which gives devtree errors during startup, and that causes only a black screen.
Kexec will get a workaround as Hashcode said.This may also include a higher kernel sublevel. Stay tuned and be patient...

The looks might be the same but under the hood there is hell of a change - trim support for once which makes my N7 fly like never before! It is really noticable...
On the other it may not work on razrs. We will see! But it is a bigger step (in performance) than between 4.1 and 4.2.

Google does not update SGX DDK binaries(kern module and userspace libs) since 4.0.4. Motorola do that for its 4.1.2 release. So GPU drivers definitely newer on Razr. But this will not solve 4.4 issues xD

Regarding to hacking OMAP: Could you help me with the ducati binary? Need to fix it for use with modified kernel - but as you might know - it's closed source precompiled by Big Moto. The most highest supported kernel version is 3.0.88. Any idea how to make it better?
