Stripping CyanogenMod out of CyanogenMod

[Guest Matthew Ferguson]

Apart from the power widget, I've gotten my version of CyanogenMod pretty much stock. If you take out all CM apps APART from CMParts, and replace ADW with stock Launcher, this is nearly stock.

The overscroll effect (although technically stock as present on a stock Nexus S) can be disabled in CMParts, and the stock lockscreen can be enabled in CMParts/CyanogenMod Settings. The screen off/on effect can also be disabled.

All I ever wanted was stock Gingerbread!

This isn't quite the same. For example the modified music application, Profiles. As much as you can ectively remove parts to get it as close as possible, the aim of the excercise is not to get CM down to Gingerbread. It's to get a vanilla Gingerbread so that as a user I know what vanilla Gingerbread is, and come to appreciate/otherwise the features that are CM specific

I know it isn't quite the same, but as you've just listed the features that you know you're not able to disable, and that are CM specific, surely you already know what vanilla Gingerbread is?

You cant (obviously this is an exaggeration, you can, but its hard) build CM stripping it from all its features. CM is way customized so you can remove all its features from the source code. Besides you would be removing all its optimizations, no point in doing that.

Easy to build from AOSP if you want a vanilla droid.

That's not an exhaustive list. For example I found some settings in Messages that I've never seen before. I have no way to know if these are Gingerbread features or CM mods, it's a little frustrating for my needing-to-understand-what's-what brain :)

Would an AOSP build, 'just work' then? If so, can someone create one?
