so there is no devolper to make to us cyanogenmod rom for the p8max?
is it hard to do that?
Not really hard but need to spend alot of time. However, there's a lot of tradeoff because in CM rom you might lose the camera quality and hardware acceleration.
There's some great threads here about custom cm rom and you need a Linux desktop to compile the source code.

So recently i have gotten seriously interested in the behind the scenes work that our great devs do here. I want to become a dev. I searched Google for how to compile cm7 for my phone and i got to the wiki. But why? They have a cm7 build for my phone already. What's the point of compiling vs flashing atinm's? What can i do to make it better? Or more personal. I couldn't find any threads on xda about this. Also any guides you would recommend for a wanna be dev ?
Thanks guys

Here you can find everything you want know...
The point is to sync the source and snoop around and see how things work.
From there try and bring improvements and submit upstream.
Syncing/building is the first step.
For something like this, unless you want to hack CM or AOSP, you should just use the official CM builds that are published.

Who's using cornerstone and what ROM are you using and is it stable for day to day use?

Im wondering the same thing.. but I can only see 2 available.
CM9 and Team EOS
I tried CM9 and wifi didnt work so I couldn't really test much
Do you know any other?
Edit: Just read that Team EOS is AOSP Rom... I don't like to flash those..

LOL at you not liking AOSP ROMs LMAO what do you think that CM9 is?
AOSP = Android Open Source Project. It is when Google releases the source code to a particular version of android (GB, HC, ICS) and this source is adapted to your device by usually taking existing kernels (or kernel source code) and drivers for your device and making the Google source code run, pretty much without many additions..although, if you like spice, you will find it in an AOSP ROM. Asus' Stock ROM is also based on Googles source, but then Asus is not obligated to release it's proprietary source (what it adds to the OS that Google AOSP ROM did not have, bloatware, drivers, etc). Therefore what we are able to do in a ROM based on Asus' is limited compared to what can be done in an AOSP ROM. Some are stable, some aren't..it isn't a function of it being an 'AOSP' ROM lol it's just how developed or underdeveloped the ROM is. CM9 for TF101 is way more unstable than CM9 for my Epic, they are both AOSP and from the same source even, and they run differently- because they are at different stages of development and being developed by different teams of people.
Don't be so quick to scoff at AOSP ROMs..they are not all the same, and nothing in the term 'AOSP' means 'unstable' or otherwise anything to be afraid of.

Ok thank you very much for your perfect explanation. But why do you say that CM9 for TF101 is unstable? In the relative thread i read that the users are very satisfied by this rom.
Dont lol at me! hehehe
I know CM9 is AOSP.. that was the first and only AOSP Rom I ever tried..
I'm not scoffing AOSP Roms off I just didn't see the advantage but I didn't know that Asus doesn't release it's proprietary source.
Don't be so quick to lol at people apart from that it was a good reply... I might give them a go again in the future

Hi Malandro, what is your experience with CM9 ROM? Are you satisfied, is it fast?
thanks

I tried that cm9 with cornerstone and it is buggy...
The non cornerstone cm9 would be better but I didn't try it...

Ok but I had read it's come with ICS 4.0.4; what are the differences you noticed between 4.0.4 and 4.0.3 ICS version?
thank you
So, cyanogen finally released the oneplus one kernel source as it mentioned here m.androidcentral.com/oneplus-one-kernel-source-now-available-download does this means the rom can be ported?
well, it could be ported regardless. with lots of work of course. but that kernel is for that device, that hardware. drivers for that device specifically. if it will be ported, it would probably be using a nexus 5 kernel. as porting the kernel would be a much harder and more tedious job. anyways, we have a cm11 for the nexus 5, with a cm kernel?
Kernel source and ROM source are completely different. Kernel source means nothing in the context of this question.

I've also been wanting ask if we are going to be seeing the CM11S ROM port anytime soon for our devices.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
Chill dudes. I would think we will be seeing nearly all features of the 11s ROM in due time. Most of the apk's from the OnePlus dump are already working on cm11 nightlies for our N5's.

Anyone running cyanogenmod as a primary ROM on a Nexus 5--
Why did CyanogenMOD fork?
What features do you enjoy using on this ROM?
What are the advantages of using this ROM over stock or modified AOSP?
I don't ?
You may want to check Wikipedia. It's been a custom ROM for almost as long as Android has been around.
The short of it is they're tinkerers just like any other custom ROM. You get a lot of features not found on the stock ROM and bug fixes literally nightly- if they are merged in from AOSP, other 3rd party forks, and enthusiasts- and they're immediately available in the next nightly update. I really don't know how to answer your question because there's technical advantages, feature advantages... If you want to root make a backup of your ROM and try a few. You'll figure things out quickly.

Hi XDA Community,
Why developers could not use the source code from a TouchWiz Kernel for an AOSP ROM. Touchwiz is based on aosp or I'm wrong?
Touchwiz is built on AOSP correct but Samsung have made loads of changes (annoyingly but makes touchwiz better) and Samsung do give us developers source with thier OSRC website but the source they give is not enough to get a fully functional build of say CM or any other of your favourite Roms

Thanks for the Information :good:
May I ask what kind of libs or drivers are not in the publicly available source code? Because I thought that it would be possible to 'just' pull the libs and stuff from current Kernel or within /system/lib/
Now I am not a pro if talking about reverse engineering or whatever, but isn't it possible to extract necessary source from device or maybe fully decompile the Stock Rom? If all I said is the biggest bullcrap ever please tell me.
