Porting 2.2 Froyo

I know it shouldnt be in this Section.
But this is the most viewed section by developers and gets the most attention so i posted it here.
Well like many of us were just waiting for someone to port 2.2 to our Heros. And I went to the G1 section to see how the development on porting 2.2 Froyo to the G1 was going, and their 63% done with it. Damn!
Check it out:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=686105
What they have working:
30sec Boot / 1min first boot
CM5 Base
Froyo Laucher
Jit
Radio (3G/Data/Phone)
Browser
Froyo Google Apps
Native LEDs
Native SD (Only works without EXT)
Twitter including Sync
SetCPU
3D animations
Superuser Permissions
Widgets
WiFi
GPS
Sound
Bluetooth
Tethering (Built-In)
Not working:
Camera/Camcorder
It says they mixed the SDK with the Nexus OTA update.
Can someone do this for us!
We really need Damageless and Flipz!!
If you have their number call em up!!! Lol

Word.
10chars

Why didn't you post this in our current Froyo 2.2 port's thread? No need to make a new thread when you can just post in the current thread where the people that are working on it are already reading.... Good info though

This shouldn't be in this section.

We have people doing similar here.. Though they dont announce everything they get workings. Some are also busy doing other things.
My guess if we wanna see froyo on the hero we need to look at toast for his coding and a his .29 kernel, and darch and quietcblongs for there understanding of AOSP roms.

I'm not trying to be disrespectful or rude, but earlier today there was a town hall type meeting and stuff like this was discussed there

Why on earth was my above thread moved and closed...
Explain please moderators...

I'm not a mod, but I would guess that it was moved because there was no development going on. Why was it closed? I dunno... maybe the mode are getting sick of moderating this forum.

they moved a lot of stuff so i might have been an accident. try pm'ing a mod.
I'm not sure how long you've been on xda for, but in my experience it is common for requests (even development requests) to be moved to general. They usually want only actual development in the development subforum out of consideration for developers and users alike. it can be a bit trying to wade through all the ot discussion.

Asking a question about a feature for possible development is not development, its a general question and should go in the General/Q&A section. Pretty much everything should go under General, unless you have some source or compiled ROM or Kernel to contribute.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=614062
I'm not a Mod obviously but spending a lot of time in the N1 Dev section you get a sense of what is and is not acceptable and how well it is tolerated.
Edit: obviously if you're posting an app apk or talking about cases there are sections for Apps, Themes and Accessories also.

I think we all understand why it was moved but I don't see any reason as to why it was closed, there are a lot of locked or closed threads that don't seem like they should be, it could be that there is a thread closing happy Mod, or they are getting locked or closed by mistake.

Nice to see you over here to
And yes we seriously do, I would also LOVE it if anyone could do any of these following things to...
1) Camera stabilization that actually works
2) 2 stage camera button using the track pad (push/release)
3) App that allows 360 rotation on all apps that allow rotation.
4) Decent Panoramic camera app (like the Omnia on-screen Stitching)
5) Decent burst mode that works well and can choose how many shots it takes and time in between shots.
With those and with the rotation hack/app, i would be such a happy camper...
Come on dev's anyone know if if this is possible, if it is i'm willing to donate for sure

So my original post was shut in couple of hours, but this post has been here for nearly a day and a Mod hasn't given any type of excuse or answer to why the post was closed?

[SUPPORT] Discussion Thread for Designgears' Gingerbread and CM7 alpha flashable zips

Hey guys I've noticed that a lot of people are reporting bugs and asking for help in Designgears' "[Tech Demo] Gingerbread for Captivate Build-4 (experimental) | CyanogenMod 7 Alpha 2" thread, which is something that he's requested not to happen. Just figured I'd start a user discussion thread so people can post bugs/issues and hopefully get support for it.

Well your signature is very true. However, I hope it isn't directed at me; I don't think that I misunderstood anything. If I did please feel free to let me know.

You can't have the development forum full of support threads for every release.

The thread doesn't necessarily pertain exclusively to the update.zips, but rather to the work being done on Gingerbread and CM7 as a whole. I understand that designgears just packaged the work done by supercurio and others into an update.zip, but that in itself is valuable, as it is easier for the people who have trouble doing all the adb commands and such. On top of that, support offered here is still relevant to people who have installed it via supercurio's method. Having this thread here makes it easier for everybody who has installed Gingerbread or CM7 on their Captivate to get help with either of these two projects.
P.S. I'm sorry, I understand that this thread probably belongs in General, so mods please feel free to move it if you see fit

Its not my position to say what belongs where but I'm glad to have this thread. I would still be running gb but had a cpl issues. My phone wouldn't go into landscape mode for one and youtube videos I was only getting sound no video.
Maybe issues everyone is having maybe not. Can't wait until it's done but I will keep trying each build. Thanks for the thread and happy holidays to all.

Designgears IS NOT working on the bugs. Read his posts. Supercurio and some others are. I'm sure they know the bugs. They also read these forums. Just let them work out the kinks. They'll get there. Or you could always code it yourself
Anyway, I hope to see a stable release soon!

HoneyComb anyone???

I see there is some folks working on getting HoneyComb to run on the HD Desire - anyone planning on trying to get it to fly on our beloved HD2's??

yo i second that its running on the g1 for christ sake im by no means a dev and have no idea what it would take to get it up and running im just curious as to why it hasnt been attempted ???

Team Royal has it booting on the mytouch 4g. but it is a work in progress and i might add they are kicking arse.

Actually chiefz reloaded is rumored to have a full port working for the hd2. From what I was told today they need to get external audio working and it will be up. Hopefully in the next couple days.

It has already been booted on the hd2, but it is so broken it isn't worth it. I mean, it's fast and stuff, but it doesn't even have a phone function. Practically nothing works (camera, data, wifi).

X8 development - there is none

Sorry I do understand the devs are working hard but progress is slow

Okay, no offence...... But clearly you can't read, have you not seen the many threads to bypass the locked bootloaders. These threads have hard working devs attempting to make custom rons even with the difficulties at hand. I understand that progression is slow due to the lack of.devs but we are truly blessed to have devs like racht, jerpelea, doixnah, povanovn, artoseven (sorry if i missed anyone out, you devs are all included). The effort these devs have put in to make this phone a little better is amazing and i definately believe they deserve a round of applause. Not only are there workaround custom roms but there are modules which are made to help OC and add more features to our phone than Sony would have provided us. Furthermore devs are slowly finishing tweaks on cracking the x8 bootloader. These devs and everyone who has ever provided something to improve this phone deserve a round of applause and i think you should apologise for your gurtful comment, cos at the end of the day the devs are helping us

@Administrator. I humbly request this thread be deleted or moved to the General section since it has nothing to do with development.

up :===> 100% agree

I think he means the lack of progress lately, which is somewhat true. I haven't seen ratch update his ROM in a while, and the 'SD card is safe to remove' still exists, and it's been around since the creation of custom ROMs.
Please note I'm not agreeing with the OP, just putting this out there.

If you look around all devs are focussing on kernel building and loading and behind the scenes activity, instead of posting half baked stuff they are posting tested and stable roms
Look at minicm its almost perfect, only one main bug and tethering feature is not available.
Don't worry and have patience.
And if some mod can close or move this pointless thread it would be great.
