Froyo ETA prediction? How stable do you think it will be ?
i say 3-4 months until HTC and Sprint release the update.
just my personal assumption.

That long for the official, what about the unofficial & its stability?
It is supposed to be July...
Unfortunately, I haven't posted enough to post outside links. If you Google android 2.2 evo July; you should find all the articles.
For an unstable FroYo, we already have it. Maejrep is running it on his Evo now but until him and Toast release their root method we won't have it. But it's unstable and things don't fully work yet such as the camera. Now this is just an N1 port. That said, in June later in the month, the full FroYo source will be released. This will allow for us to compile our own AOSP build. There may be issues like we had with the Hero but we should be able to get most of it if not all of it working. So for a fully working AOSP FroYo we should be able to get it by mid to late June.
June 4th, thanks to some awesome devs in the community. my best guess/hope.
we all know its going to happen but how soon till we see the leaks
Leaks? It's already officially out. Nexus One's are receiving the update as we speak. As for an EVO specific leak from HTC/Sprint, who knows..I'm sure the devs will have something out soon if there aren't any major hardware changes / requirements.
SDK is out NOT a working rom its no "leaked" pushed yet to the nexus 1
This update sucks for me if it doesn't fix the CPU problem of almost maxing out when scrolling which causes scrolling to be laggy. If they don't fix this by the time my next upgrade comes up I'm switching to a Windows phone. I want a smooth interface.

I guess I'm not following.
According to Engadget, Gingerbread, 2.3, is running on Nexus One's. They've received the OTA update.
Although, they may have been wrong and pulled the article and didn't say anything, since
http://www.engadget.com/2010/12/06/android-2-3-update-now-rolling-out-to-nexus-one-owners/
no longer appears to be a valid link, but it was just a half hour ago.
I think this is what it said:
Nexus One owners feeling a little Nexus S envy can breathe a little easier -- we're hearing that Android 2,3 Gingerbread is being pushed out to the N1 as we speak. We'd imagine that all the slick new features that don't require new hardware (like NFC support) will be there, and we're definitely interested in playing with this built-in WiFi calling stack.

the latest ota pushed to the nexus was just a minor update i don't think it was 2.3

That might have been an old link where the nexus one got a security update and people jumped the gun on calling gingerbread
Looks like Engadget was wrong and pulled the story. Nobody can confirm that 2.3 is out it seems, though some have tried to get their N1's to update.
Way to go Engadget, wrong information with no clarification. At least post a "Oops, we were wrong" update or something.
The N1 forums are saying it will be out on/around the 16th.
Edit:
Think they heard me:
Update: Looks like our flood of tips came from people who were seeing their N1s get a different, less-interesting update -- we'll let you know when the actual 2.3 update roll out. Ah, the heady optimism of hope.

One of the main guys on the Android team tweeted that no ota was released for the nexus one and that the source would be released in the "coming weeks". My bet is that the first rom with working Gingerbread on it will be Cyanogen and within a few weeks of the source being released.

Yup, for our EVOs CM is the best bet and that will be AFTER the source (not to be confused with the Nexus One OTA) is released.

Any sense rom will have to wait till a 2.3 gingerbread source is released by HTC which could be a while, if ever. Cyanogen is already on 2.35.9 kernel which hopefully means that porting their work to 2.3 shouldn't be that hard to do.

I'm going to say this once to head off the countless sheep who will ask...
Do not ask when Gingerbread will make it to the EVO.
Seriously, how the hell would any of us know? We're not psychics, we're not secret HTC/Sprint/Google/CIA/Mafia/Former KGB/NSA employees, we can't predict the future, so why on God's green Earth would you ask us?
Shut up, sit down, twiddle your thumbs, and wait for a press release from Sprint, HTC, Google, etc. announcing that Gingerbread will or will not be ported to the EVO. If you really want Gingerbread, go help Team Douche port it to be CyanogenMod 7. That's the most guaranteed way to get it to our phones.

Not sure if there's any confusion with what I think I read from your post but.. I'm talking about the AOSP source not the HTC source. That'll probably take a month or so after the Nexus One OTA to be released and then another month or so before CM releases a RC of CM7/2.3.

windows phone? are you on crack?
I'm guessing you won't see a Sprint/HTC Gingerbread ROM until sometime next year. Rumor has the source code being released when the Nexus S ships which is allegedly on Dec 16. Expect AOSP based Gingerbread ROMs to start rolling out around then and an Official Sprint ROM after sometime well after that, after its been thoroughly QA'd.

You beat me by a few seconds. Lol I just read this on Phandroid.

I hope to be eating an ICS for Thanksgiving!
Can't wait for the roms to start popping up...
cyanogen will get it first. Unless some people and I mean (the awesome team of developers on here) team up and shoot it out like there isn't a tomorrow.
Excited about my EVO again!!!
Can't wait! Having this on the EVO will make me resist upgrading for a while longer!
Waitin' for the EVO version

Don't hold your breath...
I read elsewhere that even with 250gb+ of HD space and 16gb RAM were looking at 5+ hours to compile.
Not to mention all the tweaking that has to happen for the vanilla to work on specific devices.
Aaaahhhh can't wait. Too excited.

I could see the first CM9 build around the end of December or Mid January. Patience is the key.
Cool
Can't wait

Pretty sure that's what "Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich Source Code Available Now!" in the title of the article means
First post for you yay!
Everyone sounds confident that we'll be getting ICS on the Evo. Has there been any confirmation (by the Cyanogen team or otherwise) that this device was going to make the cut? It's getting a bit long in the tooth, phone-wise. I'd love to eek out a few more months of use out of it though. Best phone I've had so far.

Cyanogenmod already said they'd work to develop an ICS build [CM 9] but refused to do so until official source was released, which it has been.
Right, but was the Evo 4G specifically mentioned as being supported? CM9 might not (probably won't) be available on all devices that CM7 supports.
It probably won't be supported on something like the Hero or older legacy devices which barely made the cut for CM7. I have a good feeling that the EVO will still get ICS because it hasn't had the life bled out of it yet like the G1 or other highly supported phones.
ive been waiting for this since honeycomb i am so excited and evo should make the cut its not to old of a device probably wont be an official release but still it works
- Hero , Legend and many more got the new CM7
http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=hero
- Look it has been released last night. Maybe today or tomorrow we will get an update soon for the X8
i know XD
but thanks for your share
Well, about time they got the nightly build bot going again ... after they ran around asking for donations because they obviously need a server infrastructure every CG Animation Studio is jealous about.
Still, doesn't change the fact that the Shakira CM7/FXP ROM is utter crap.
I totally agree with you man. But it is nice to see that CyanogenMod gives a c*ap about our phone , well at least they did give a c*ap in the old days but now i think they aren't even gonna make the damn update. But Dx is gonna make an update on the GingerDx cuz the update was released on the Hero and Legend he can port it and stuff maybe it is good or maybe it is the same like any other CyanogenMod that they built.
Am I missing something? Just came in to check new update but horrified to see the thread marked DISCONTINUED and closed!
Bad news?
read last 20-30 posts of the dev thread - it looks like note will get official CM9 very soon, so no need for Imilka's rom
Imilka was first of all never planning to release cm9. he made the cm9 build for his own love.. but he was not sure if he shoudl release it.
I had asked encouraged him.. he should
but not sure why he took it down. maybe he thought its unofficial. will ask him about it
btw, teamhacksung is already working on cm9 with custom open source kernel for the note.. so we will get an official build soon!
But shouldn't be discontinued until CM team makes a release. At least we have Imilka's ported ROM to keep us busy while waiting.
CM team SOON to release official galaxy note cm9 mod, Imilka's CM9 ROM early closure is a bad news still.

It should be discontinued whenever imilka feels like it
Anyway, his ROM is more than good enough to hold us over.
i think its his personal decision after all. he even discontinued the aosp thread
Waaahhhh I cannot get over to this feeling like the school I went just closed. You got what I mean? The feeling is bad.

Completely understand your feeling. Will miss Imilka's excellent work!
Since Imilka said he will support it at least untill it gets official support - and it's discontinued now - i guess it's getting official very soon. Would be nice if they incorporated some of Imilka's work on it though - was a good work right ? Would be a shame to toss it away.
Well, let's just hope to see official builds as soon as possible.
What ever the reason Imilka I thank you for your hard work. I enjoy flashing your roms on my note
No more CM9, no more AOSP... Maybe he joins the dark side? I hope not.
AOSP&CM9 ARE the dark side
Just got an update from Imilka.
He has discontinued cm9, because official version will be out soon, so he doesn't see a point working on it more
He has discontinued aosp, because its not used that much, as cm and aokp are more widely used,
so he doesnt seem there is a point in putting his energies here.
but he might be back soon with something else
Let's hope cm9 comes before ics for the note from Samsung
But very excited about this news

I mean the other world...
Usually I´m the „silent reader“ kind of user, but at this point I´m making an exception.
I just have to say „Thank you Imilka for your great work“
Hope he will be back when Samsung release Official ICS ROM ! Except he has sold his Note !

Me too! I used Imilka V8 and Imilka CM9 v02 anh I feel pleasent.
Accept one thing that Imilka miss that S-pen functions, the power of the Note.
Hope Imilka will be back with more powerful ROM with S-pen facilities.
Many thanks again.
Very sad to see it discontinued as well. Imilka's CM9 ROM was hands down the best ROM I have ever used on my Note (and I've tried a lot of ROMs!). I will continue to use v03 until we have an official port.
I only hope that it is soon... As Galaxy Note users, we have become far too accustomed to hearing "coming soon", only to be disappointed.
Looks like Entropy is making good progress though, so I remain optimistic!
