I started to teach myself c++ this year and i've noticed its not hard to learn but actually applying it to every day thoughts is hard.

Yeah, like I said, programming is really just a way of thinking. Learning a language is the easy part, practical applications and learning the actual process of software development (software engineering) is another skill entirely.

I'm sorta iffy about mtd, I don't have much first-hand experience with yaffs2 because I come from a traditional Linux background (ext4 for life), but I understand it's supposed to be better for flash media. I suppose that means you have room to make a believer out of me.

I'm really torn right now between ****ing with two codebases (Android, and CryEngine3) so I'm not quite sure where my priorities lay just yet. We'll see.

well the plus side with mtd partition info is you can actually re size it based on your needs :P eg you can take space from say the modem parttion or efs parttion on some devices thats not being used and move it to the system and visa versa this is of course an example.

Well mtd makes things easier but its slow an inefficient hence why everything is moving to emmc n ext4 ;)

tbh if he wants it ill do it if theres no intrest in it i wont bother wasting my time playfull when it could be better spent with us all working on cm9 if u want :P
 
ICS isn't per say impossible. I dont think your phone has the gpu to run it good, i cant remember the exact requirements but i think it is possible probably for a developers own gain. I do not think it would be very usable at all. But a ginger cream sandwhich sounds kinda nice.
 
In the cryptic way the OP describes this, this will be an ICS themed ROM, nothing more. It will still run off the 2.3.4 core. Lets just be real here.. Pulling apks and framework/systemui res images and smali file rips from the ICS core framework is just theming. Its all eye candy. By the time you could build ICS from aosp (and the specs on this phone would certainly not run ICS well enough to even be worth it), this phone would be ages old and Metro/Cricket would be on to the next phone.
Not tryin to be negative, just realistic.
 
This has pretty much already been done, there is a lot of ICS themes out there. And I like seeing old comments about CM9 not running. Looks like if Bo gets his CM9 running he will be eating his own words :D
 
The person who said they were going to build this rom ... He said that he finished the rom but dont have the admire anymore so i guess were gonna have to wait until he uploads it

According to the OP's post he is just theming one of the already existing ROMs! ;)


Req and Bo are the only ones I know of actually doing anything with CM7/9 and I know for a fact req is building from src. ;)
