Lets throw all the AOSP software crap into one thread
I'll start, I've loaded the FINALLY STABLE NexusS AOSP rom onto phone. Everything including data stats + all essential communication tools work
Using a VERY STABLE kernel on my NexusS with this rom
Goal is to be able to push the phone to 20hr battery life like the old
How is the progress on the SGS2? maybe users with HTC Evos can chime in too?

Do you have the menu/back buttons on the screen as it will be in the Galaxy Nexus? I was watching a video of the port for SGSII and it has those on-screen menu buttons and the functionality of the soft buttons (original menu/back/home buttons)

SGS2 is far from a final product. According to the youtube video I saw the soft buttons are disabled now so it's strictly using the capactivive buttons. I think Samsung may even be able to release ICS before hackers do since SGS2 is currently their flagship product.

NO FCs and the ICS is running smoooooth on Nexus S
although I believe hardware acceleration isnt included on my ICS port. The franco kernel is doing wonders for the phone as well.
with what i've seen from the dev port and now the AOSP port, the final product will be fantastic

Just flashed my Nexus S on Kwiboos rom and Francos kernel. Noticing the blue tint here. Also My Titanium Backup doesnt seem to work when I'm restoring. Stays on the first app at 0% forever now.

CyanogenMod team has a ICS build (Pre-CM9) for the Captivate up and running.
It seems like they won't be working on the SGS2 yet and it doesn't make sense that atinm and his team would. SGS2 will officially be getting ICS anyway while the Captivate is at meh status.

From what I've read, cm team is having some difficulty with sgs2 mic driver and that is slowing down their progress with getting a usable alpha build out. Posted via RS Mobile | |

There are still issues with the hardware accel and such in these alpha builds
Should be better once the official ICS is released and devs can get crackin Quote:

I also notice that with ICS (well in the build that I was using anyway), there was no option available to enable/disable background data, which means battery life is gonna be worse than that of gingerbread.

Anyone notice that the Android OS is always draining the most battery life?
I'm using Koush's CM9 Alpha 11 Rom, and battery life is worse that of stock gingerbread.
