Hello everyone,

As a lot of you know, I have been doing work on the MetroPCS Samsung Admire. I want you to know that I have not given up, and progress is being made. I have CWM recovery almost perfectly working, and I have been making quite a bit of progress on CyanogenMod for the device. While I can not give an ETA on either (please do not ask), I can tell you that I am continuing work, and eventually a release will be made.

If you’d like to support development, and make things move along faster, feel free to donate. Every $10 donated earns 1 hour of totally dedicated, uninterrupted time of working on the Admire, and this will allow me to finish the project faster. I wish I was able to work on this project full time, however, I have a family to feed and take care of, and bills to pay. As such, I am forced to work full time. If I receive donations, this will allow me to replace time at work with time sitting here, in front of my computer, working on the Admire. I appreciate each and every donation, and I am working on some type of special program for donators. Thank you for your consideration.


T-Mobile G2

So, there haven’t been any updates recently, and this is why…

The T-Mobile G2

I got my T-Mobile G2 on Friday, and I’ve been using it since. It’s a great phone, very solid hardware. The whole “loose hinge” issue is not an issue, it is design. It is incredibly fast. I definitely think this was a wonderful update route from the Nexus One, and I can’t wait to see it rooted, and CyanogenMod installed, that shall truly unlock the potential of the hardware.

I’ve been working with a group of others on rooting the device. Well, we have temporary root, however, we are lacking eMMC NAND read-write access. If you think you can contribute to attaining this in one way, shape, form, etc, please go ahead and join us on IRC — #G2ROOT on irc.freenode.net:6667 (7000 for SSL).

However, do not let this post disappoint you. With the hardware being very similar to the Nexus One, once this is rooted, updates, themes, etc should be cross-compatible between the two devices. Also, I will try to get another update out to you guys within the next few days here, as I still have access to my Nexus One.

So, keep coming back, and expect updates and more stuff soon!
