Wow, never expected any new developments on this old phone - thanks!

I followed your steps & installed the ROM but SuperSU can't update its binary. I've tried the normal method and recovery. Any ideas?

try it^

Okay, I installed Superuser first and then was able to update the SuperSU binary by the recovery method. After that I opened SuperSU and got a message asking to delete Superuser to avoid conflicts. I did this and everything seems to be working.

Off to try the swap next

So dope to see new shnit on the indestructo smart phone otherwise known as the admire. Still use mine as a wireless controller for my entertainment pc and a music player while I'm around the yard. Don't have any data service so I cannot give any feedback as to whether it works or not. I'll let you know If I come across anything else though. Again, thanks for the new toys.

 

[kev716]

Similar to me. Mostly use mine to play music or look things up while working in my garage, avoids getting my current phone all greasy.

i ported an android l mod also. team nexus is overlooking my permission to host. im sure they are busy with new code.if anyone knows roomz or duca @xda from team nexus, maybe drop them a line so i can share this.

 

[Samsung Use i]

so this still has the bug where the normal camera doesn't work?

EDIT: how is battery life?

 

[brandonabandon]

Not sure, didn't use the admire much, as I picked up a gnex shortly after and w/o data. I use easy battery saver from the play store. This ROM on my ascend 2 with the battery app would run for 3 days on a full charge. However the ascend 2 also has smartass2 governor kernel. Both the ascend 2 and the admire running the newest ROM I ported with the battery app, ran 3 days on full charge. Considering little to no use. I'm not sure what cm7 before my port ran on the device, considering cm7 on the ascend 2 running the app I mentioned, better battery life for gingerdx

 

[Samsung Use i]

Okay. When I have a chance I will install this ROM and check how data works... Also, no overclocked kernel? :0

EDIT: okay so if you built this off the CM7 spz0 released then it does NOT have data working unless you somehow worked on it to fix that issue. I read the whole 6 pages in the thread trying to see if anybody found a fix too but found nothing :/

 

[brandonabandon]

i never had data on this device. if you try the rom, report if data is working. thank you.
