Root CM9 is booting (as I've heard)

I meant along the lines of cm/aokp themselves being stable enough to bring to the device. I'm sure there will be all sorts of hurdles in the area of device specific issues.
 
the only thing in my cm10 build that doesn't work is video camera. everything else is pretty solid,so cm9 should be about the same. aokp is solid also. it has same video recording problems as cm9/10. to me the video issue is minor. so I would assume any build of 9 for optimus elite should be about the same in functionality.

....You have cm10 built for the OE?
 
no I don't have an OE build. Didn't mean to cause confusion. If I did,you all would definitely be using it. I meant the build for my device.
 
so what is working and not working?
Read..
Yes, I have crm9 building from source and booting up. Right now thats about all it does is boot up. You get a boot animation and then the launcher. If you wait a while, the screen goes off and you get the lock screen. Touchscreen works poorly, all the buttons work, no wifi, no audio, no bluetooth, no phone.

There are no screenshots because, well, it looks identical to any other cm9 right when you boot it up. There is no download link because I'm not about to upload several hundred MB if data just to prove that it kinda works.
 
Cyanogenmod is actual jellybean as well. Its also based on aosp. It'll be equally difficult to port for most devices.
 
it may be hard, but i beleive giantpune will figure it out, this phone was my first hack. since then i have rooted 7 different phones, jailbroke a ps3, plenty of iphone ipads and ipods, almost attempted a kamakzee hack on my xbox but wussed out... and 2 wiis, along the way of learning how to hack i have seen giantpunes name more then once, i beleive on a wii message board so i'm pretty sure this guy is a genius. and motivated me to become a hacking junkie... i cant stop, i have to hack everything i get my hands on.

that being said thank you giantpune not only for all the work you have done on this phone but for all the free and open work you have done for so many people and im sure you dont get thanked enough for your hard work you do not only on this device but many others

Also... not trying to impose on anyone but Drew did say he was working on cm10 i know its not cm9 and i do not know if he has even started or made any progress but it might be worth checking in on, especially if he could possibly help with the cm9 build and help work out the bugs.
 
i suggest not jailbreaking a ps3 there are ways around not getting caught but chances are you will get banned from the network

Could you tell me how to? I know that it worked on 3.55 and below.. any chance of jailbreaking on 4.20?
 
that would be for a topic on a playstation forum not here. lol

i would help you if i knew, i have not done it yet because i dont really play ps3 much because most my friends play xbox i have not even attempted it yet, i do know you need stealth firmware and you need to rename homebrew to Call of duty or something so people will not see you are on homebrew, just google it im sure you will find it.
 
alows you to be a pirate ARRRHHH!!!

but seriously, i dont even think this talk is aloud on this forum, or at least piracy, lets stay on topic this forum is for our phone, did not mean to start up a convo about ps3 lol
 
It is actual jellybean. It's 4.1.x.

Would you be unhappy if your carrier updated you officially to jellybean with its overlay?

It's still jellybean.

The cm teams cm10 adds functionality and options to Google's aosp builds. I don't know how that could be seen as bad.
 
I think he means it isn't stock.

The Cyanogen team makes changes and improvements to what Google has done, with the build(s) that Google provides. It is actual Jellybean, just modified. But no, it isn't "stock" Jellybean. There's a difference.
