CyanogenMod installer doesn't support I777 - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

So CM just released the CM installer on to google play that would make flashing ROMs a breeze and they support every SII except i777,,,quite dissapointing...not that flashing ROMs is difficult the traditional way but it would have been nice to have a "one click" option to flash them
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/CyanogenMod_Installer#Supported_Devices

Given CM's recent actions and current direction, I imagine those here on XDA probably don't care too much and will even less as time goes on.

Will you please elaborate? What are CM's recent actions and current direction that is causing concern to the XDA community?

I agree...is this "recent actions" something new that has happened or is this something that has been going on for a while? I have always been pretty happy with CM's roms.

I take it you guys missed them becoming Cyanogen, Inc and our developers leaving them behind to work on Omni instead?

If they end up being some sort of global sell out money makers or something I'll throw up. I just hope they always remember where they came from. I've always loved the CM team.

Yes...I completely missed them becoming CyanogenMod Inc...thanks for the info.

Yup. A bit more detail at https://plus.google.com/106978520009932034644/posts/L8FJkrcahPs
There's a lot of things that annoyed me but I would've tolerated - but the Focal disaster changed everything.

Hope they will support soon

No. "ATT Note" implies i717. If they would have just said "Note", that would have been vague. Throwing ATT in there makes it clear as day.

AOKP stands for Android Open Kang Project, CM9 is CyanogenMod 9. Basically they are both similar roms that are built from open source vanilla android, and can be built for basically any android phone so long as a developer is willing to put in the time. They both share some code with each other, yet AOKP tends to have a few more tweaks, and both are crazy fast. They also have a theme engine that allows people to make themes that can be applied on any phone running AOKP or CM9, regardless of which phone.
As for learning other stuff, I point you here for terminology: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=22223555
And for how to root/rom go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24539068
I suggest just taking some time on stock to learn the ins and outs of how the stock software works, and reading as much as possible on here, before you try to do anything.

Both are based off of AOSP which is the Android Open Source Project. Google released the source code for Android ICS and developers take that code and make their own roms. CyanogenMOD is basically pure Android ICS but with some extras. AOKP is based on AOSP but with themes, tweaks, etc. They both are different and both very good.
We currently have both roms but unofficial versions of the roms.
AOKP: http://aokp.co/index.php/news
CyanogenMOD: http://www.cyanogenmod.com/
An official before source drops Nice. Unofficial still works great though.
I thought AOKP was based on CM9

Will we ever see a stable AOSP build?

I've been watching development progress on this since I bought this phone back in March. I'm running one of the latest CM9 builds and while it runs very well, there are still a number of issues with it in terms of stability and functionality. As we know, development on CM9 has mostly come to a standstill.
I've been excited keeping up with the CM10 progress and how it seems to be coming to a usable and relatively stable state, however now I'm reading everybody is working on getting CM10.1 booting instead of continuing to fix the issues with CM10.
Now I don't want to seem unappreciative of the work our developers do on their free time, but what's the point of all of this effort if it doesn't result in a good, usable product?

What exactly makes cm9 unusable? As far as I know blue tooth (Edit) and MHL are the only things that have yet to be perfected. I've run a couple cm9 builds that really blow jb on my friend's phones away.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk 2
With everything 100% working? No you won't. Blame it on HTC, not us.
And cm9 runs fine. 10 runs great but has a purple camera and the FFC isn't likely to get fixed easily, if ever. We don't have the jb blobs for it. And the ICS blobs only support pmem.
Can always go back to pmem for everything but it runs terribly then.
The point is I like to tinker and problem solve. Brain exercise so to speak. I don't release ROMs for this reason. I have zero desire to provide support for them. I personally just like to see what I'm able to do and build skills.

Understood. I really didn't mean to be seem to be assigning blame -- I'm extremely appreciative of and wholly admire the work you and others have put into this device. I was asking as a genuine question as it was unclear to me what kind of direction is being aimed for and what the goals are.
Keep doing your thing, and I appreciate the input. :good:
And I'm far from an expert on these things (my background is in system administration and networking, not programming), but on the camera issue, doesn't the Rezound use the same camera module as the Droid Incredible? I know there are working CM10 builds with everything on the camera working but video. Perhaps this could be of use?

Multi window on AOSP

Is there a way to use Samsungs multi window app on an AOSP ROM?
yes.
but it would involve you creating the app.
probably couldnt call it multiwindow...call it dualview.
No, and won't happen unfortunately.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk 2
There is an app called cornerstone multitasking which works simular to multi Window. But it's a tablet app and is only available as a feature that would have to be baked into a rom. Idk if anyone has started using this mod or if it even works for jb. But it appears to have been designed only for 7 and 10 inch tablets. It would look crammed for four or note 2.

Cornerstone has pretty much been abandoned because of bugs. I really wish more would have been done with it so the bugs could've been worked out and I could get rid of touchwiz.
I'm sure other devs will come up with their own variants. And just a matter of time when Android will implement it. Maybe in Android 5 or 6.

Well that's a shame. I'm glad I didn't really use Multi-window enough to find a specific niche for it to matter, since I've moved on to AOSP. There was only a few things holding me back on TouchWiz, and that was one of them. But honestly, there's very few times where it actually is worth using.
It'd still be nice to be an option though. Wonder what the conflict is.

Pure AOSP Rom?

Is there a pure AOSP rom out there or nearly pure made to work with the DNA?
Short answer: Nope
Long answer: You are more than welcome to look through the Development thread. There are only a dozen or so Roms so it shouldn't take you too long
Longer answer: CM10.1 is in the works but I'm not sure its at daily driver status yet.

I've been using CM 10.1 for my dd for a little over a week and have had no issues other than the lack of camera and an easily removed issue with GPS.
I'm no developer, but from my experience with the LG Spectrum, once CM has all of the hardware functioning, then AOSP and AOKP are not terribly difficult. In the case of the spectrum, a fully functional pacman ROM was released a few months after CM was completed.
Question of my own. What exactly needs to be done to gain official support for CM? I would love to be able to flash nightlies like on my nexus 7.

I've been using it as dd off and on. It's good enough for me to use it a few days a week for now. I really hope development picks up after cm10 is ready. I feel like not enough developers have this phone for there to be a lot of support. Idk if devs actually need the phone to make ROMs for it though.
Regardless, Chad, cr, fly, and the other devs working on cm have done a spectacular job. If we have a cm ROM, aokp, and pa I will be ecstatic.
Is there any point in having a 100% pure aosp ROM?

i don't want all the crap themeing and "mods" that come with CM, I just want pure android, if I want to add something ill do it myself.
I've contemplated back and forth for some time whether I want to build AOSP for the DNA. The camera really has been a PITA for another device I've been working on; It shouldn't be as camera works on CM10.1. However, it would suck to put all that work into it for the camera to be the hold up (although, I don't think it will be as difficult since its 8mp and the one I have somewhat working is 13mp).
The main issue is that if I build AOSP (well technically I have already built it), I would prefer to stick to google's base code as much as possible without bringing in CAF/CM code to achieve goals. Doing this, makes things a bit more difficult.
I suppose it's also a bit of whether it is worth the effort and if people really want it as well.

MultiWindow - is it growing on you?

So for the first few months I've had this thing I turned off almost all touchwiz bells and whistles. Bad memories from previously owned samsung devices.
Anywho I've recently been doing a lot of Youtubing and am finding multiwindow very very helpful (I'm mainly interested in the audio). Anyone else found a us for it?
How about the other stuff like air *?

Nope that's only for TW no way of easily porting that over and since cm is for many different devices... Let's just say it would be a massive nuclear pain in the ass to even attempt to port it over... Not to mention it would almost certainly be illegal because of patents and probably have to dirty hack with samsung manufacturer code signatures.

No, I find multiwin to be annoying, I run CM to NOT have any TouchWiz stuff, most of which I don't need or want.
CM does everything I want and/or need so I don't miss any of the TouchWiz annoyances.... err, I mean, features.
