CyanogenMod-6 Progress
June 30th, 2010 | 
Author: It’s been just under a week since Google released Froyo (Android 2.2) into the open-source world and we’ve made great progress on CyanogenMod-6 already. Approximately 20 of us on the CM team are working hard on merging all of the community-developed extras in, as well as porting to new devices. Google did a great job and really gave us the best foundation to start from this time around.
Here’s where we stand so far.. Most of the CyanogenMod extras have been merged. Some features are being reworked (like trackball settings), new device ports are well underway. The first devices to see CM6 experimental releases will most likely be the Nexus One and Droid simply because those are the devices that “just work”. The Dream/Sapphire port has everything working but one small issue remains. Wes Garner has the Slide port well underway. I don’t have a status report of the Desire, Incredible, and Evo versions at this time.
I’m expecting that we should have some experimental releases by the weekend, but please don’t spam us asking for ETAs.. We are just as excited to get this out as you are 
You can follow our progress on Github or drop by irc.freenode.net in #cyanogenmod or #koush.
Regarding updates to CM5.. A small update will be coming this weekend to fix a few bugs but the focus will remain on CM6!
Thanks to everyone who has been supporting us with testing, bugfixing, code, new features, and of course donations. CM is what it is because of the community. Thank you!

Samsung Wave please port to this device.
pls update cm6 progress
can you edit the motorola droid version so it can work on the Milestone version thats sold in Europa
I cannot say thank you enough for your (collective) hard work. Wait… maybe I can say it:
for (int i=0;i>0;i=0) {
System.out.println(“Thank you”);
}
Scott, your code needs refactoring for simplicity.
while(true) { System.out.println(“Thank you.”); }
Actually, I don’t think Scott’s code will print anything. Since i is initialize with 0, how can it ever be > 0?
Not that any of this is important…
CM 6 Alpha 3 is amazing! Cant believe its already at alpha 7.. Im really excited for RC1
Booopity Doo: he’s just not thankful
that’s all *hint* *hint*
I just left some bucks for beer! Hope others follow my lead! Thanks for 5.0.8-N1! Looking forward to CM6!
Is there an update zip for Alpha 3 or better? Having trouble finding one. Please post where I can find it.
Are the speed improvements from Froyo significant enough to make it run FASTER than 1.6 on a G1? I’m really happy with my current cyanogenmod 4.2.15.1, because it is pretty fast, and really stable. Will Froyo be even faster than that?
Been with you since JF but am sad to say that from Japan, PAYPAL is crapola. It won’t let people from Japan transfer to privates and my account expired and the card connected won’t be released for a newer one.
Alternate method of donations possible?
i know i’m stating the obvious, but it just amazes me how good a thing cyanogenmod is.
i’m one of those still using a g1 (going on almost two years), and my options to continue with the things would be pretty bleak without you all. i was having behavioral problems with 1.6 – new email notifications were flaky at best, i had to choose between relatively few apps because of the absurd space limitations, yadda, yadda – and you all have put me in the opposite situation. everything basically works, i can install every one of the apps i need, i’m not stuck in crufty-old-os-version land, and overall my phone is *outrageously* useful. it’s certainly not as fast as the new generation (and i *wish* the launcher-locked-in-memory provision worked more of the time), but it’s fast enough for everything i need to do.
upshot is, i would be more than comfortable with 5.0.8 for a good while, i think – and here we are, looking at froyo 2.2 on the near horizon! i’m looking forward to it, quite eagerly – but i actually am in a quite good situation, without it, thanks to you all.
it’s not that i see a bunch of complaining or anything – just that the situation is so extraordinarily much better than it could be, for us g1 owners at least, that i thought it worth remarking. “thanks” doesn’t quite do it – maybe this could be seen as a toast to go along with the beers people are donating? yay!-)
io.format(“Thank You!~n”).
I wanna thank you for all the great work you’ve done with 2.1
Im sooo stoked to see this all come together with FroYo…
Hit us up with an update on how CM6 is goin bro!
Is there any kind of release ALPHA/BETA out yet? I’d like to try it… (N1)
Yes, there is! it’s in the wiki, latest version section.
