[Galaxy S II General] BackfireNL:
haha they will come up with a working rom... Samsung provided the devs with a i9100...

They don't need bounty or cash to make a rom. Thats not the point of Cyanogenmod.

If you would have checked out their website and forum more then you would know...

not knowing is just like being ignorant!

And believe me! this bounty thread isn't going to speed up progress. Just be patient

EDIT: I'm sorry for being such a douche but try to do some more research

EDIT 2: The mod will not be released by a particular dev but by the team together (Cyanogenmod). If you really wan't to help them send one of the members of team hacksung a pm!

EDIT 3: If you really want to donate you can do it allready just by donating to the team. And not a particular dev! http://www.cyanogenmod.com/
[Galaxy S II General] ogdobber:
posted june 3rd ^^, thread started may 4th. This thread was started long before team hacksung showed interest (or at least stated it here) they also said they are not doing this for the money, but I guarantee they will appreciate it.

pm'ing the devs isn't going to speed things...it will be done when it is done
[Galaxy S II General] crs87:
hope we will have it soon :)
[Galaxy S II General] stillbrad:
Lol this thread is the reason we are getting the CM7 mod. It was put up when S2 first came out idiot. Check the dates dope.:p
[Galaxy S II General] shinjie:
$20 here

I hate Samsung stock ROMs and I LOVE CMs !!!!!
[Galaxy S II General] emplox:
I don't understand why CM has been started on this already. Maybe it has and they simply haven't said anything yet. Wasn't a phone donated to the CM team purely for that reason?
[Galaxy S II General] ogdobber:
it has been started... they just haven't released a build yet. last thing I heard they were working on getting the sound in order;)
[Galaxy S II General] emplox:
very cool :) now if only this phone would arrive in the states and on VZW :D
[Galaxy S II General] naddie:
I couldn't wait, so I ordered the international model. I also like having a physical home button. :)
[Galaxy S II General] emplox:
what are you using it on for cell service?
[Galaxy S II General] naddie:
AT&T. Believe me, I would love to ALSO have it on T-Mobile, but it currently only has UMTS bands for AT&T here.
[Galaxy S II General] twensix:
10$ if it works fine. i m a poor student sry :D
[Galaxy S II General] Marcehh:
I love CM7 too but I'm wondering if it would be suitable for the s2. The battery life, I found, was always much worse than HTC Sense for example (I know how the s2 has battery problems anyway).

Does this concern anyone else? How is the battery life on the custom roms out at the moment?
[Galaxy S II General] ogdobber:
battery life is great for me, of course I have deleted everything to do with touchwiz.

expect to see very good battery life on cm7:D
[Galaxy S II General] ragiut1:
that would be the second choice to having AOSP
[Galaxy S II General] redbullcat:
Don't we first need a working clockworkmod before we can flash any custom ROMs? Not trying to go offtopic, just asking :)
[Galaxy S II General] ro-mann:
No, we want Cyanogen. :)
[Galaxy S II General] pulser_g2:
Nah you could ODIN flash it if someone was making suitable images.
[Galaxy S II General] Kinslayer81:
$50 with SGS II specific optimizations.
[Galaxy S II General] paolol8768:
I will donate 10$ from Italy :)
[Galaxy S II General] AllGamer:
alright sounds good to me, we'll keep an eye on this
[Galaxy S II General] FtrV8:
Put me in for $20. AOSP build on this device would be drool worthy!
[Galaxy S II General] soraxd:
well i think i will stay with touchwiz, but ive seen some works of CM7, including the wonderful built in call recorder, and would love to see another hacked camera app on the S2. to me i would be more than happy to donate $25 dollars, especally if i get to say im part of the group that brought cyanogenmod to the S2!
[Galaxy S II General] risq:
Let's hope some Devs were already tempted to do this, and now have the financial gain to add as an incentive!
[Galaxy S II General] vimto25:
carnt donate much but i would like donate what i can so $5 i will contribute,

every penny counts i guess :rolleyes:, Id like a part in this Super Rom for S2:D
[Galaxy S II General] JohnDoe01:
In some sort of a mad remake of the old noob war cry in warez forum, let me add "me too !" (10€ with hardware acceleration, at least for the browser, I would never accept to go back to something slow no matter what)
[Galaxy S II General] MattWPBS:
Stick me down for £10.
[Galaxy S II General] bilboa1:
Never say never ;-)

1/CM7 is much faster than JVB - EXCEPT the browser. But still.

2/With any luck, Ice cream will have mandatory UI acceleration by the GPU therefore, CM8/9/whatever would be accelerated too then

3/H264 encode / decode might however be more difficult xD
[Galaxy S II General] raven2000:
I will donate $30 ONLY if the CyanogenMod is stable and suitable for daily use.

Even though Galaxy S is 1 year old CyanogenMod is experimental and unsuitable for daily use.
[Galaxy S II General] ke3pup:
i will put in $20 for a stable version.
[Galaxy S II General] HyperEscape:
I am new to this ROM moddding.

I still have to get my SGS II, but I pledge USD 10 for having a mod with all possible hardware acceleration and software enhancement feautres.

I would love a ROM with a HTC Sense like UI interface on SGS II, guess its better than Samsung TouchWiz.

But how would I dontate, I dont have a Paypal account. What other mode of collection there might be.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S II General] StarF:
if this is done, i will add 20 aswell.
[Galaxy S II General] ro-mann:
The Bounty is only for a stable rom.

Cyanogen is not Sense like, it's stock Android with a lot of tweaks and add-ons. If you like Sense Modaco is for you.

If you don't have a Paypal Account you could always donate money via bank transfer. Also, if you don't have a credit card, you could try Clickandbuy.

Can I still write down your offer?
[Galaxy S II General] redmongoose:
Put me down for $15
[Galaxy S II General] FRLinux:
Yes I second that, touchwiz 4 is nice but a bit of a hog.
[Galaxy S II General] beatbreaker82:
Will pledge $30

HW acceleration, better performance and battery life

Official support with nightly fixes
[Galaxy S II General] FRLinux:
Do you want fries with that!? :D
[Galaxy S II General] Harry454:
Battery life has been great for me, stock firmware KF2 installed launcher pro instead I can last with it at 18 hours usually with still 10% battery left and this is all normal usage, wifi on everything. However I still can't wait until a stock Gingerbread experience comes, can't wait for CM
[Galaxy S II General] derby_sv:
$30 for battery life and if it possible - for software compensation of the yellowish left side. And don't forget your very usefull power control widget!
[Galaxy S II General] tosin01:
I'd pay £30 just to have a great battery. Dont need anything else.
[Galaxy S II General] qwerty warrior:
team hacksung just release something i dont mind bricking my phone :P
[Galaxy S II General] Larsie90:
Just have some more patience, they're really close, all they need to fix is sound
[Galaxy S II General] jakbim:
Any word on how far the team has come with development? Can't wait to get this badboy of a ROM on my S2!
[Galaxy S II General] naddie:
As previously stated, they are stuck on getting sound to work.
[Galaxy S II General] rohitgarewal:
Does anyone know if the version they are working on is based off of 2.3.3 or 2.3.4? Are they even able to create one with 2.3.4 if Samsung hasn't made one?
[Galaxy S II General] mirotis:
http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/18070-cm7-discussion-of-nightlies/
[Galaxy S II General] Larsie90:
CM7 is completely open-source, including drivers, there's no Samsung (or any other propriety software) in it. The only thing that could hold them back is Google to release the latest version of Android to AOSP (which is 2.3.4 atm). After that they need to port the modifications in CM to the latest Android version.

But all of the above has been done for 2.3.4, so yes, they are able to release a CM build with any Android version before Samsung does
[Galaxy S II General] kar111:
I know we can switch from ADW launcher to any of the others but can we have basic stock android gingerbread like on the nexus S or is ADW the complete stock?
[Galaxy S II General] FRLinux:
This is for i9000 man. Wrong handset :)
[Galaxy S II General] RiTCHiE007:
ill drop a 10'ner for a full working one or something with 2.3.4
[Galaxy S II General] FRLinux:
Well, CM devs have been using 2.3.4 for a long time, so yeah, it will be 2.3.4
[Galaxy S II General] naddie:
You can download the Gingerbread launcher in the market. Or:

http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/15106-mod-universal-022611-cm7-gb-stock-launcher-cm7-gb-mod-30/

ADW is open source, which is why it's in CM7. I would like to have the stock Gingerbread launcher as a built-in option in CM7, too, but I can live with just downloading it elsewhere.
[Galaxy S II General] kar111:
GINGERBREAD launcher doesn't work with sgs 2, but thanks a lot for the link ill do that soon as i get cm7

:)
[Galaxy S II General] naddie:
Darn. That was my plan when I get my SGSII. Oh well, TW4 seem to be better than TW3.
[Galaxy S II General] omrij:
Actually it'w working with KF2

didn't worked for me before either
[Galaxy S II General] petrosy:
Put me down for $20
[Galaxy S II General] BackfireNL:
Oh my god. You are so ignorant. Do you really think CM makes their mod for all the devices because the community offered them bounty's?

And why didn't they start before they where given SGS2's by samsung?
[Galaxy S II General] atinm:
You are correct - we are not doing it for the money. And yes, CyanogenMod already has a donate button (though that is "general" CyanogenMod - not SGS2 in particular which is being done by teamhacksung, i.e the same people who did CM7 for SGS as opposed to teamdouche). This thread will not speed up the development - but we appreciate the gesture, and when we do take the donations off your hands (and we will), they'll just be used to get us more devices to develop on.

[Galaxy S II General] cTrox:
Codeworkx got sound working apparently!

http://twitter.com/#!/codeworkx/status/83920806501031936
[Galaxy S II General] FRLinux:
Nicely summed up atinm, I had donated back when I tested CyanogenMod on my SGS and have just donated another 50 euros directly following the donate button on the cyanogen forum. The work you and the rest of the devs do is very valuable in my view, and even though I have subscribed to give money to the bounty when a working rom emerges, I believe donating now also makes sense.

Keep up the good work :)
[Galaxy S II General] FRLinux:
Oh, awesomeness, that could possibly mean a nightly fairly soon :)
[Galaxy S II General] atinm:
Maybe you can also say you are donating for "SGS" or "SGS2" somewhere - will let the main team know that teamhacksung devs are to blame. Gives us more "street cred"! :)
[Galaxy S II General] ronsonron:
sounds hypothetical, but THS will not reinvent the cyanogenmod! can't await...

[Galaxy S II General] steviewonders:
I ran a version of cyanogenmod on my HD2. It was great. Using a SII now. How long do you think it'll be before it's complete?
[Galaxy S II General] Neferaton:
I'd donate 50€ sicne I love CM7 for Galaxy S i9000!
[Galaxy S II General] Razer(x):
Codework said almost everything is working, except HD video recording and HD video playback
[Galaxy S II General] kaukassus:
the DEV team should release a BETA version of CM7, because HD recording and playback is not so important, and with a beta release, problems and bugs will be found (and fixed) much faster.
[Galaxy S II General] Razer(x):
Should? And why? They'll release it when it's time to, don't be impatient
[Galaxy S II General] steviewonders:
Can't be long now then. I'll stick with the stock ROM until it's released.
[Galaxy S II General] Slick_42:
How do we do the donation? Maybe everyone on a signal on the cyanogen site with a collective message like "from sgs2 with love "?
[Galaxy S II General] FRLinux:
Front page at the bottom right: http://www.cyanogenmod.com/
[Galaxy S II General] jags_the1:
samsung galaxy 4 will
[Galaxy S II General] aejt:
that's not going to team hacksung though..? this thread is for donating to the devs porting cm7 to sgs2 (team hacksung), not to the cm7 team.
[Galaxy S II General] terquad:
I'll give 20$ for full usable ROM... What about included maps for the navigation....?
[Galaxy S II General] Slick_42:
In the end the money will be used to buy more devices anyway. But we should donate in a coordinated way to get team hacksung some credit.
[Galaxy S II General] aejt:
The first post says "NOTE:*donations will be deposited directly to the DEV that comes up with a proven working ROM" though, so why not just follow it?
[Galaxy S II General] Slick_42:
We already know that team hacksung will be it. There won't be an mystery hacker jumping out of the bushes. The question now is how we do the actual donation in a way to get the message across.
[Galaxy S II General] aejt:
uh, I don't really see where I said anything about some other dev making it.

What I said was that people should donate to team hacksung, not the cm-team. Donations made through cyanogenmods site won't end up in team hacksungs hands as far as I know.
[Galaxy S II General] jackierobinson:
Why can't you just donate to one person in the team and they can distrobute the funds.
[Galaxy S II General] atinm:
This is a "bounty" thread - let us earn it, then figure out how to donate ;-)
[Galaxy S II General] Razer(x):
Any news about development? How's it going?

Put me in for $50. Teamhacksung deserves it!

[Galaxy S II General] atinm:
And as I said - work continues. You do realize that coolya and I are both on teamhacksung, with codeworkx, Unhelpful and GuiPer and we're the ones doing the CM7 for SGS2? We are using CM as our daily driver on SGS2 - but we are not ready to release it for nightlies yet because of some issues we are still working on.
[Galaxy S II General] simondavies315:
What issues are you currently working on?

Is hardware acceleration going to cause you trouble as my friend who is a very good programmer says it will take time
[Galaxy S II General] atinm:
We're working in both the kernel stuff related to device support (mostly done, but not finished) and on the codecs so we can have full support for all the things that stock can do with audio/video etc. That's the biggest issue right now, but the others need to be fixed too before we put out nightlies.
[Galaxy S II General] simondavies315:
Will the work done on the Samsung Galaxy S2 help a lot in porting CyanogenMod to the Samsung Galaxy S3 when it's released next year? I'm assuming the totally differing hardware will make the port just as difficult as it is this time. Did porting to the Samsung Galaxy help a lot in the current Samsung Galaxy S2 port? Sorry for all the questions answer whenever you have time I don't want to pester you
[Galaxy S II General] t0ph0id:
How can he possibly answer this when the S3 isn't even released yet, have the specs even been confirmed by Samsung? I doubt it.
[Galaxy S II General] simondavies315:
It's going to have a quad core cpu god help the battery :-)

He's already commented on battery life, similar to stock.

And TouchWiz? Are you serious, please can you make CM7 on SGS2 and then add back in the Samsung bloat, don't be silly. :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II General] ogdobber:
battery life on the sgs2 is fantastic if you get rid of all the touchwiz and samsung bloat

btw...over 4 hours display time...
[Galaxy S II General] ro-mann:
I'm not talking about the bloatware, but the good stuff like the controls in the notification bar.

And what about the overheating? Gets ready bad sometimes.

[Galaxy S II General] bose301s:
CM has had those since CM6 on 2.2 so don't worry. Also, I can't wait for a Verizon version of this phone, once any solid news of a Verizon version is known I will probably throw in $10-$20 since this phone will be glorious with CM7 :D
[Galaxy S II General] ro-mann:
I mean the music and phone call controls, which CM doesn't have.
[Galaxy S II General] ogdobber:
yes it does and more. lockscreen music controls has the option to show album artwork and you can have 2 additional custom "phone controls"
[Galaxy S II General] ro-mann:
I didn't know that, thanks.

Any plans on tackling the overheating?
[Galaxy S II General] blickmanic:
overheating isnt a rom issue, its a hardware issue, go and buy some water cooling that might fix it
[Galaxy S II General] ro-mann:
Your condescending tone is totally uncalled for, have you got a problem?

I've read that the overheating its due to the cpu settings so	a custom rom might fix it?

Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S2
[Galaxy S II General] AllWin:
20 euro if games will stop freezing after few minutes of gameplay.
[Galaxy S II General] atinm:
Actually no . . . overheating is frequently a ROM issue. If the CPU is spinning, if the phone isn't going into idle correctly etc, all can cause overheating. Heck, I've managed to heat up my SGS2 when I broke USB while trying to make tethering work for CM7 so ADB was stuck in a loop, spinning away.
[Galaxy S II General] kotaro_14:
Try to use other custom roms like Villainrom.
[Galaxy S II General] ro-mann:
If Villainrom can solve the overheating issue why shouldn't CM be able to?

Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S2
[Galaxy S II General] atinm:
Erm, who said we have an overheating issue? As in, who is saying anything about CM? We *haven't* released anything yet!
[Galaxy S II General] jangomango:
wish you would hurry up... ;-)
[Galaxy S II General] ro-mann:
I know that nothing is released yet, I just hope that once it if released it will tackle the overheating which is a problem for many users, I actually thought it was common knowledge that overheating its one of the most common problems of the SG 2.
[Galaxy S II General] atinm:
Ok, guess we'll know when we actually put this out. We haven't been seeing it, but maybe because we're not quite doing the same things with our phones that you are. We're actually seeing no "problems" per se, just things we haven't finished doing yet. At the moment three out of four of us are concentrating on hardware decode as that's the most fun of the problems we are working because it requires the most coding and isn't just cobbling things together. Bluetooth is the other major piece we are still not quite done with, but we'll come back to it after this.
[Galaxy S II General] NL4JC:
Keep up the good work. This is the ROM I'm waiting for. :D
[Galaxy S II General] ValmarWeln:
Always used CM on my previous phones (desire being the last one before my Galaxy SII) and will definitely be using it for the SGSII.

Good luck guys, awesome work.
[Galaxy S II General] airuzzo:
cant w8 for this rom.. keep it up!!!
[Galaxy S II General] ZhuraYuk:
Will you fix 16 bit mode in which graphic driver works? I think it is most major problem of SGSII.
[Galaxy S II General] justbenice:
CyanogenMod for galaxy SII will release when galaxy .. SIII release by samsung!!!
[Galaxy S II General] atinm:
Actually, it'll get released as soon as you start contributing to the development by writing some code. We're obviously waiting for your skills - we're not quite smart enough to do it ourselves.
[Galaxy S II General] darkodin14:
Very well said.
[Galaxy S II General] SirM2X:

[Galaxy S II General] atinm:
In the interest of honesty - the change from stock TW w/ a different launcher and CM7 with the same launcher will be minimal. This time stock TW on SGS2 doesn't have quite the same performance issues as Eclair, Froyo and even Gingerbread for SGS did, so the speed difference is minimal, if any. The only thing that CM7 will really give you is the ability to be running the latest version of the code that Google puts out (think Ice Cream Sandwich), when Samsung has moved on to newer models of their phones. Just like CM7 on SGS phones is running 2.3.4 when official builds are still at Froyo for many of the SGS phones. And of course, any bug fixes we do to the stock builds will show up in CM7 as well as the customizations that CM allows. I see barely any difference really - even TW doesn't seem as bad to me these days when I'm on stock. And I can flip back and forth between stock and CM7 using ROM Manager without having to go thru Odin or heimdall shenanigans. Win!

TW not sucking quite so much is one reason why we're not in a hurry to put out nightlies - this time putting out less functionality than stock would just mean that there is no reason to want to run CM unlike on SGS, where even if hardware codecs were not working, the rest of the phone being fast made it worth running CM7 just to get around the stupid performance issues.
[Galaxy S II General] kraeftan:
Keep up the good work!

Wondering if you can add a microphone boost function, cuz the mic is low when talking.
[Galaxy S II General] EarlZ:
I used the CM7 on the SGS1 and I didnt really find it any much different from the ROM Kitchen, what can it offer on the SGS2?
[Galaxy S II General] atinm:
For you, most probably nothing.

What people who don't know CyanogenMod need to understand is that CyanogenMod is AOSP built from source for the device (as much as possible). It does not contain any manufacturer or carrier stuff. What it buys you is a "vanilla" AOSP - basically what the Nexus phones provide - plus some customizations. And the ability to run the latest version of Android that Google puts out for Nexus phones before the phone gets an official (or frequently unofficial) firmware of the same revision. For example, CM7 on SGS has been running 2.3.4 for a while now. CM7 on SGS2 is as well. You can bet it'll run Ice Cream Sandwich a lot before SGS and SGS2 get it too (if possible).
[Galaxy S II General] naddie:
I have to say, I have to agree that this iteration of TW is very good with some niggles. KG1 is mostly bug free for me. Only changes I'd like are SystemUI.apk (green icons, CRT animation, and disable full charge notification), better (modded) stock Camera app, and ... that's pretty much it.

After trying out all these custom ROMs, I decided the stock KG1 is the most stable and still allows for a hardware accelerated browser. Add WidgetLocker, and I'm all set.

I would still love to get CM7, and the fact that you can switch between the two ROMs via CWM is awesome! It's almost like dual booting!

Thanks for the update, atinm.
