Back already :)

April 2nd, 2010

Okay I’m back :) Working hard on the new N1 build, and also have plans to backport some of the work to the 4.2 build.

In any case, thanks for playing along. The community that’s developed around CM and Android in general is amazing.

    Glad to have you back!

    Good to know the iPad phase passed lol

  • Casper Bang

    By far the most scary Aprils fools joke I came by yesterday. Here’s another beer so that it won’t ever happen for real. :)

    How’d you enjoy the iPad? I’m glad you decided to quit on it the day before it’s release :D

  • Jim Philips

    Damn! And I was hoping you would be the mole who destroyed Apple from the inside. :P

  • moose

    horray for 4.2!

    ….wonders if a brief evil laugh echoed from the bowels of Steve Jobs troll cave yesterday a.m….

  • Jeffrey Evans

    Actually, I would like to see you give Steve Jobs a heart attack. lol

  • Pracis

    Haha.. nice one Cyan.. :)

    So you didn’t manage to root the iPad then? ;o)

  • David

    I played my share of April Fools trickery too. Rock on, C!

  • Romar

    Thank Jesus. Hahaha. Glad to see your head is still on straight.

    Great April Fools yesterday! Scared the bejesus out of me!

    Good to hear you’re back at it but I think the 4.2 build should be higher priority than the nexus one. Your userbase is far far greater for it, etc and we have been waiting patiently since January! Besides the nexus is blazingly fast anyway and doesn’t need your expertise in streamlining. Come back to 4.2 Cyan, please!

    Speaking personally I’m most looking forward to getting flash on my G1 so progress on this might persuade me into making another donation to the fund!
    Thanks!

  • SamZzz

    Whew!! Good thing I didn’t notice that yesterday before I “bought you a beer!” I might have changed my mind. LOL.. Glad to have ya back!

  • h4xit

  • Weeber

    How can I install this firmware on my android phone? I’ve been searching the site but I haven’t found a guide or a howto. Could somebody point me in the right direction?

  • jdawg5779

    I’ve got the new 5.0.5.6, and now my setcpu1.5.0a wont let me overclock past 600mhz. I have tried all settings “autodetect, droid, and even N1″ Any ideas?

  • Yuval

    Guess you realized that the ipad was a big thin nothing that can’t do s***t.

    it is just a big iphone.. no flash support even..

  • ismael

    I would like to see the guest invitation option from eclair calendar in the 4.2 update if it is not much asking.

  • renn9420

    @weeber what phone do you have?

  • renn9420

    @Weeber and anyone else trying to get Cyanogen on their phone (G1 or MT3g) http://androidhustler.blogspot.com/2010/03/2010-official-how-to-get-latest.html. Enjoy my boy AndroidHustler put it together.

    april 1 is one of the few holidays left with any meaning, and you did it justice!-)

    i’m writing because there’s one nagging problem i’m noticing on my g1 running 4.2.15.1 – around a day or so after a reboot my email sync seems to lag and stop. rebooting the phone gets it going again, but… is anyone else having this problem? anyone working on it?

    Je pense qu’il devrait laisser Rob Russell a continué comme le leader de la tribu. En fin de compte, aura pour tenter de les amener à voter contre lui au large à une grande menace, puis Russell pouvez cliquer Slide

    Hey there, just wanted to say thank you for your hard work. If it’s any consolation to you, you have greatly inspired me and as a result I am looking to start going to school for programming. If you have any suggestions as to which courses to start with any advice you or anyone would be willing to give would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks!
    -Cam

  • Zeke

    Great! Keep working on making the phones awesome!
    I’m sure there’s battery life savings to be had with the wifi chip, hope someone writes in with a tutorial!

  • http://www.shaveeverywhere.com S3bast1an

    will we see the Android 2.0 on out G1s?
    That would be keeeeewwwl!

  • guru

    Anything cooking for HTC Magic .. :-)

  • Brad

    Agreeing with S3bastian except for HTC magic.. Any chance of android 2.0?

  • Eddie

    Thank goodness! Could you fix it so the data connection is not lost when we are on the phone while using navigation? Just updated Maps and this is now happening.

  • Walt

    G1 love please! You may be enjoying the glory of the N1, but I bet dollars to donuts there are far more G1 than N1 owners…

  • SDeba

    Steve, as everyone – I think you should concentrate on G1 and other donuts, because N1 isn’t THAT popular. ;)

  • Kenny

    It was a good joke, had me feelin down lol, but people please leave your issues in the forums, that’s what they are here for.
