[ROM] CyanogenMod9 Nightly Build for Samsung Galaxy Y

Posted by : Unknown Saturday, June 22, 2013

Yeah, yeah, we all know that we barely got a cyanogenmod7 fully working on the Samsung Galaxy Y, but that shouldn't get in the way of trying to port cm9 to work somewhat like cm7 on the little Galaxy Y.
A week ago, percy_g2 started a thread at xda-developers forums with an unofficial build of Cyanogenmod9.

Note: Please don't expect to see fully working features on this one as it doesn't have the progress the Cyanogenmod7 build has. By installing this you should be aware of the bugs you will experience and various functions not working, please keep the hateful comments away.

The build we will have a look at in this post will be Build #2 with the changes:
"Overlay fixed for ldpi (no more fc in phone app and overlapping)"

Download CM9 Nightly Build #2- Click here.

Instructions:

Flash white kernel 1.3.3 using Odin (hopefully you should know how to do that if you're planning on testing a rom like CM9) - Download kernel
Boot into CWM Recovery
Go to mounts and storage and mount /system /data and /cache
Go back, choose to install zip from sdcard
Locate and choose the CM9 zip file
Choose Yes when asked to confirm
After it is done installing, go back, wipe data
Reboot

Below are some of the things that are currently not working and the things that are being worked on.

Not working:
No camera
No audio
No wifi
No bluetooth

Issues worked on:
Overlay for ldpi (fixed)
