Root Froyo Source!

But wouldn't this mean a more stable BB? A large number of people have had problems with his recent froyo roms.

it would only mean a more stable BB if he builds from source otherwise it will be based off the current leak.
 
Doesn't Pete build from CM normally? I mean not the Froyo ones but the 2.1 ones at least. maybe not just always thought that
 
Pete doesnt build from source.....at least none of his roms to date have been as far as I know

I thought Bugless Beast V1.0 (and the updated V1.1) were both built from source. They were both ESE81 builds. Wasn't that the souce build? I could be wrong, though.
 
Would like the full quotes please so I don't have to go to twitter :)
I know, beggars can't be choosers.

"Well, Froyo builds. But does it run? Flashing now."

when you see built from source it means that the dev actually complied the source themselves. There are several devs that build from ESE81 source or 2.1 update1 and there are others that just use the files from the OTA. The OTA 2.1 OTA we got was ESE81. I know its entirely confusing but I have never actually seen Pete say he built a rom from source so thats why I said that. I could very well be wrong.

Really what I am saying is you can use the ESE81 as a base for a rom without compiling from source on your own.

Actually, it's not confusing at all. It makes sense (to me at least). You're right, I've never seen Pete say his build was "from source." I just assumed it was because it was an ESE81 build. Thanks for the clarification.
 
What does Chris mean by his tweet:

"All CyanogenMod versions will now be in binary, CM110 coming soon!"

Can someone translate?
 
well a straight compile, ie. stock android 2.2, on the nexus 1, not (i'm assuming) a version of cyanogen 2.2. Gonna take a bit more time to integrate the CM features/tweaks with the upgraded source from 2.2. Man I can't wait, I 've been holding off on the leak Froyo's for some freshly compiled code...

Tho I would imagine a good bit of the leak 2.2.s will be changed to use the "official" source, but then again I have no idea how many devs actually mess with Compiling code.
 
Awesome!! So how long until CM FroYo is released??


:D Had to say it.

It will be a very VERY VERY happy day for me when it is! I missed Cyanogen like I couldn't even begin to describe, but Froyo has too many features I didn't want to lose.

No young padowan the question is How long until JRummy's remix of CM FroYo is released?

:P
 
I guess those of us that flashed Froyo Kangerade V1.1 will be flashing yet again in a few days, once a ROM built from source is released.

I said this before, but I'll say it again. THANK GOD I'm a teacher with the summer off. Otherwise I wouldn't have the time to do all this tinkering. And I get to take care of "Droid business" while my wife is at work so I don't have to deal with the "quit playing with your phone" comments from her.


That would be me. Just finished Froyo Kangerade V1.1! Now I want to get my google listen working again!

Just saw I had a PM from you. Glad to see you got the kinks worked out and sorry to not have responded. Welcome to rooting. I'm sure before you know it you'll be officially addicted to flashing ROMs like the rest of us. :D
 
Pete's Bugless Beast for 2.1 was FLAWLESS... I just assumed he built it from source code. How else could he have built it???

He just did a fantastic job of tweaking the ESE81 Build for the Droid. He didn't "build" the ROM...he "optimized" it.

Thanks for moving this mods -- I honestly didn't see a thread about it. I wouldn't have thought the board would have let a 2.2 source thread leave the first page.
 
Koush just posted some screenshots of 2.2 on Droid on Twitter:

What's up with that Model Number? Mine says Droid (on Kangerade 1.0). And, is that the new baseband? I haven't been following much of that since I nearly always have great 3G.
 
I believe there is a new baseband which is experimental but supposedly will be included in the official update. Someone please correct me if I'm misspeaking.

Yes that's the new baseband, it surfaced a couple weeks ago when Froyo leaked.
