I thank you very much for the update! I am glad that this is still being pursued. That is awesome. I appreciate the efforts that are being put in. And once again, wish i could offer help, but not so much on the programming knowledge here.

I would be willing to do some testing at the point where something is semiusable. (at least phone and text capability)

i know that you are probably as anxious about this as i am, but we should appreciate the info that was given to us, and respect the devs wishes on not releasing more info and being hounded.
[Epic 4G Android Development] irule9000:
NO ETA

Please dont ask for an ETA, its one of the most annoying thing for devs(from what I here) and is the one of the biggest reasons someone will stop developing something. If you check github at this link http://review.cyanogenmod.com./#change,11663

you will see that some sort of progress had been made toward the touchscreen working (check comments) and if im reading xboxfanj's comment the right way, he is suggesting that it is close to being fixed, if not fixed already. Please know that even though we have full cyanogenmod support, all we get are resources and occasionally the help of more experienced devs, so cm9 is still a long way off from being bug less or even released. From what I have read and seen, it seems the basis has been build, and as proven in this thread it boots, but much needs to be ironed out.

i hope this helps

The next build will not be an sdk port and will be smoother. Other than that, no promises

Edit oh and it'll be better than this build
[Epic 4G Android Development] roddygonzo17:
okay sorry if this is a really stupid question but its just something i dont get... if we were to get an ICS rom wouldn't we need a ICS tar file or whatever its called. the reason i'm so confused on this is the fact that we needed all these leaked versions of gingerbread before we could have gingerbread... (EH17& EG22) :confused::confused::confused:

^^DUDE! Really.

xboxfanj - Thanks for the tidbit. Exciting to know that huge advancements have been made. I'm just happy you and the crew enjoy this sort of thing and want to share.
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
The cm team has learned to work without Samsung sources. And also, for the rom in the op we just made the gb kernel use ics framework. It was done for gb in the first cm7 builds which used a hacked froyo kernel.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dohturdima:
After our amazin' devs delivered CM7 with working WiMax (something I and possibly many others did not expect to come anytime soon if ever) rather quickly, I am pretty happy to wait as long as it takes for CM9. The continued development on our Epic kept me away from GNexus and VZW and it looks like it will remain that way :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] roddygonzo17:
Oh okay. makes more sense now, thanks for clearing it up.

Guys it looks like the cm9 team is moving pretty nicely, so don't be pissed at me if I don't release this. It does exist and I'm not lying to you, but they may release it by the time I get stuff working in this build.

Edit: looks like the cm team got wifi working. Now I know I can steal their commits for that, but I think it'd be best for all of us to wait til their release.

No. Puedo hacerlo, pero voy a esperar para cyanogenmod9 de el equipo de cyanogenmod9

(Hopefully that one makes sense)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Qwallace70129:
¿Tiene alguna información sobre cuándo CM9 estará lista para pruebas públicas??
[Epic 4G Android Development] Shinydude100:
Yeah, its no biggie, at least you have the balls to give it a go and show what you learned. Spanish->English and English->Spanish can be tricky, complete sentences most often get reversed in order to keep making "sense" and failing to do that for some sentences just make the translation sound chopped up, or cave-man like.

"Mi tambien" is LITERALLY "me too" but once you get into the rules of spanish, you learn that "mi" is used when your describing ownership or referring to something related to you, as opposed to "yo" which is more cmmonly used in phrases when you're describing yourself as "me" or "I".

Spanish 101 Class NOW IN SESSION! :p

A proper use of "Mi"

Mi tia Maria te quiere mucho.

(My aunt Maria likes/loves you a lot)

A proper use of "Yo"

Yo quiero a mi tia Maria tambien

(I like/love my aunt Maria too)

/End Spanish Lesson

P.S. there's also formal and informal spanish, with the MAJORITY of Hispanics and Spanish Learning speakers use Informal+Accents. So while you may someday get to the point of learning correct sentences, there's always a better/formal way to express it, so truly it's difficult to say someone is wrong when there's more than one way to properly write/say/type a sentence.

I don't know if I can help, but I have an extremely powerful computer that can help compile things, I don't mind helping out. I have 32GB RAM with an i7 3930K Extreme, along with 2x SATA 3 240GB Mushkin SSDs.

Shoot me a PM :3.
[Epic 4G Android Development] AproSamurai:
Your compile will be missing aspects which haven't been pushed to Gerrit due to the possibility of it overall harming/breaking CM9 for other devices which rely on Samsung RIL. So it'd be best to wait for them to iron things out and release it themselves. Patience is key.
[Epic 4G Android Development] chuckdez:
I have a working build with wifi & 4g but no camera or mms. Facebook won't sync properly on my contacts and the google calender doesn't sync.

^5 & CO-Sign, I was hoping development on this port wouldn't cease just to settle for some cutting-corners, VERY unstable, unreliable CM9 ROM!

I really hope progress continues towards a stable ICS Port...

But if not, I'll be cool with SRF 1.2

P.S. I better not get flamed jus for having an opinion!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
Sorry, but due to school and not having that much time for this, I'd rather focus on roms we don't have equivalents of like miui and sense and possibly blur. Cm9 may be unstable for now for some people, though in my experiences it's been good, and from What I hear alpha two is way better. Just not worth the time for me if it'll be replaced fast if not before it starts.

FWIW, broseph of the never sleeping, constantly flashing, delusional perverted mobile community.

I'd like to note that user usagi111's post[which can be found here: thisrightherebr0 is an ill attempt to undermine the credence of the users/developers who have thrown countless hours into a project which has brought new life to an EOL device.

I find it a bit unnerving that such ignorance of HOW and WHY something is done in this _developlement_ community can be forced to NOT be flamed to highest merit of douchery.

It's within that douchery/ego that we find the cusp of our own satisfaction.

Note, that I don't consider a "****. You." a proper response to such an ignorant attempt to essentially flame a group of developers work based on ignorance.

But I do see where it stems, and which is why I find it odd that you've left his post up and deleted the rest.

Note that this is a public response in reason to further educate the userbase of this development community.
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
Agreed - and if nothing else, the baseless hatred deserved moderating as much as the response. That's my opinion - and I shan't say more about it.

Can you close this thread? I do not plan on continuing this due to the incredible (and unfortunately unappreciated) work of the incredible cm team, which does not go unnoticed.
[Epic 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
To the cm team: fantastic rom. Undoubtedly the best ROM on this phone. After it is as stable as cm7 is, and after you guys hopefully take a much needed rest, what projects do you plan on if any? I cant think of anything better than cm9 for any device at the moment.

[Epic 4G Android Development] HumanXv2:
I am very appreciative of the work all the devs do for this device including cm7,cm9,miui and all the tw based roms. If anyone has the nerve to ***** having such awesome choices then they just need to leave their phones alone because it is obvious they will never be satisfied. I see such piddly sh*t become "deal breakers". It gets on my nerves. If I wasn't slammed with school and 12 hour night shifts I would do what I could to learn and help out the devs. Keep up the good work guys because it is very much appreciated.

[Epic 4G Android Development] UberPinguin:
Thanks for all the praise, xboxfanj. I don't intend to deprecate what you do, because I've been there and know that there's some genuine work and dedication involved. There's room in the Android community for all sorts of development, and users appreciate options.

I don't know that there will be a break. I think we're kind of workaholics... Maybe when we run out of bugs (hahahahahahah).

There's been some discussion of future projects, but nothing concrete. I don't think any of us know if or when we'll move on to a different phone, but there's a general consensus that we'd like to continue working together.

The community support has been overwhelming. We've got some hardware ordered, and once it's up and running we should be able to work a _lot_ faster. I look forward to getting a full build in under 20 minutes, rather than the 50+ it takes now.

5. Go to Cm7 system/lib/egl and on the zip with old epic ics zip and new system folder, go to system/vendor/lib/egl

6. Add the files with the same names as the other ones (should have sgx540 somewhere in the title) from cm7 to ics. (should be every egl except libgles_android.so and egl.cfg from cm7 to ics.
