Just saw this too. Awesome. A lot of people, including myself, have posted that we hoped it would be an easy port. I dont think any of us thought it would be THIS quick of a port.
Now that cyanogen looks to be almost beta ready, some decisions to make.... gingerbread or cyanogen on 2.2.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

i wonder if theyd be able to get 4g to work though, being that i think theyre only making gsm nexus s'.
i heard cyanogens team has 4g working now on the evo.

How hard will it be for the 2.3 aosp from the nexus s to be ported over to the epic? The obstacles I can see delaying the port are 4G, cdma, and the keyboard. Hopefully these factors won't effect the development for too long.

Lol I don't believe that is gingerbread. I highly doubt they would have got the radios working if they did port it over.. all that is, is the theme, startup & shutdown animation, and gingerbread launcher (can get in the market I believe) theme and start up can be found over in the theme & app section

yeah i seen his port but it use's the base 3.29 i wanted a more up to date base like 3.70 but i guess i won't get it lol. but i do love the new miui rom 1.3.5 with the honeycomb theme on it.
in my opion i just like the look of the epic os on a evo screen lol
NO WAY keep that cheesewiz crap over there

So let's get straight you want a port of eclair...not to be rude the only thing you would get is samsung widgets
hey i just thought it would be nice to have one running around here lol
i am glad non dev has.. thought it was a good idea.
Along the same lines, I would like to know if it possible for someone to port the samsung phone apk (dialer). I like it much better than the stock evo dialer and all the other phonebook apps I have tried in the past. Any ideas?

There are a few good things about the epic interface.

Stratosphere Soon

This means Stratosphere will come out soon. That will help us on MIUI and CM7 etc, because it's kernel source will help us.
Also, same specs as epic.
Same CPU and gpu combo? If that even matter

I think that's just a software limitation and it could be fixed by modifying the kernel settings.
For example, when I had my HD2 with stock Windows Mobile 6.5, the maximum recording resolution I managed to get was ~ 640x480 .
with hacked Android 2.3 installed (Ported from the Desire) it jumped to 800x600!.
with hacked Windows Phone 7 (Ported from the HD7) it jumped to 1280×720!!!.

BML vs MTD. Too soon to change for daily driver?

I'm still on bml because its more reliable and every thing works the way it's supposed to. I tried the cm7 rom and I lasted about 2 days and quickly realized that it was very limited in flexibility and function.
Granted, it was very smooth. I know it's the future but its still very beta. Just read all the mtd threads, and you'll see how some basic things are buggy or not working.
I'm a little disappointed that some of the devs are abandoning all ei22 bml support. Especially since official gingerbread isn't even fully mature yet.
I am happy that at least TW will be supported in MTD, that's a major plus for me.
What are your thoughts?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
I totally agree with you on this. I am trying to keep up on the MTD TW threads to see where the future is going but will remain probably on Legendary 2.1 with Shadowkernel for the immediate future because my phone is so freaking awesome right now!
As soon as Bbelos puts up 1.04 you guys should grab it! It will be phenomenal! All the speed you are used to and great voodoo color defaults (most will not need voodoo control app).
Well I happen to be the one that always says you'll come back. I have since moved to cm7 because earthbound put out the cm7 kernel I missed the first time I moved. I do have a few bugs I'm dealing with atm but nothing to hard to workaround. To be honest I don't see much improvment from mtd to bml or than the space and file system. As of now its just not too different however once the devs start to tear it apart and see how stuff works is when things will start to pick up. However they must be getting somewhere since there has been multiple updates on cm7 since to mtd move compared to bml.
Sent from my OG Epic
Mtd is awesome!!!!!!!
Im running tortel1210's TWMTD rom and its amazing with Samurai3.3.1MTD and Ii really can see somewhat of a difference. On BML my phone was not able to run certain programs like chainfire correctly. Games like Trainz,SHADOWGUN, and GTA 3 would not play. After switching to MTD these games run smooth as ever and I have seen change in the behavior of many apps I have downloaded. MTD in my opinion will save the Epic from discontinuation of development on it. Mabye ports like working sense can finally be achieved from this new propietary system
Imho mtd is waay more reliable. I haven't got any of the dreaded gingerbread corruption.

You should just take the jump once Earthbound comes out with his updated cm kernel so far cm7 has been everything I wanted it to be. Much faster game wise than two I don't quite understand it but its amazingly fast. Try it at least. I have yet to regret it.

[ICS] should they stop working on it

I've been following the ics project since after my birthday (11/27/11) and a lot has changed but when it comes to (FFC) it came to me that its not gonna work till maybe after the summer or never, whenever HTC gives out the code bit what's your opinion about the ics for the EVO 4G?
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
This doesnt belong in the Android Development section, belongs in GENERAL.

ummm my opinion on it is that if they dont want to they shouldnt. It will give us an awesome rom but more importantly that means our wonderful devs are learning stuff. this means that in the future they can use these experiences to help them in work or in other aspects of there personal lifes. so dev on guys you are doing great
Why in the world should they stop working on ICS? It makes little sense.
Deck and Kang and others are making great ICS ROMs for lots of phones, not just the EVO4G.
htc will release the code.. because it is an open source project. when is the question, not if.
ics will come..

The OS code is open source. The device drivers are not last I knew. So no, HTC does not have to release driver code.
HTC may release the FFC code for our OG's as soon as they sell enough of their newer devices.
They seem to be dragging their feet in releasing the official ICS updates for the Evo 3D and the Evo Design when they said they would, but they're holding it back, why? Cuz they want to sell enough of the One series models before they officially update the older HTC models that are scheduled to be updated with ICS.
Its kinda crappy of HTC to do that, but hey, they're a "for-profit" business.
But in answer to your question, heck no they shouldn't stop developing ICS for our OG Evo's! This sh*t is fun as hell.

Yeah, I don't get why a thread was started for this. But why should devs abandon ICS on Evo? Because they can't get FFC to work!? I've been on ICS since the minute they got camera working (around Xmas), and could NEVER imagine going back to GB or Froyo (well, ...maybe froyo).

The evo is EOL(end of life) HTC doesn't have to support it any longer meaning they won't release any source for it as they are not working on ICS for the device. Hardware mfgs may release source for the same hardware in other devices, like they did with the adreno or the devs may code their own drivers. But don't expect HTC to do a damn thing for the evo, period.

All I'm saying we have a lot of people love the ics Rom but some people hate it cause no 4G. But let me tell one thing about the ics it came a lot since then and like some people who are poor or they don't make a lot of money, its hard to keep up with ics roms when the last two months the biggest change was 4.0.4 which is like starting all over again. Don't get me wrong with the debate about their work, its freaking amazing, but the biggest break through will be the ffc. Closest to that is from a horse ride to a plane ride experience
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
I don't think that they should stop working on the ICS ROM's. I went from Sense to Ice Cream Sense to ICS and having ICS on my phone is like having a brand new phone. We don't have 4G in our area, and the front facing camera I hardly used. I am using gummyWorms ICS right now and so far had no major problems with it. There are minor glitches sometimes but, that is no big deal. I hope that the ICS developers can get everything working and I know that it will take time to do so. I appreciate all of their hard work in bringing us some ICS goodness to our phones.

Well, its officially official. No OTA ICS for us

I think everyone knew it wasn't going to happen, but now its confirmed.

I'd like to know what they mean by HTC EVO 4G"+". At first I thought the LTE version but that ships with ICS so doesn't make sense. Anyone care / able to explain?
possibly the europe version not sure.. that's what i thought too..
Evo Design 4G
It's coming to the Evo Design 4G (which has the same radio and camera) next month or the month after, so that's promising for us getting 4G and a good camera on ICS.
The Evo 4G+ is the chinese branding of the Evo 3D. But, if someone got Sense 4 working on the HD2, I think we can get it working on the Shift.
Just because the Shift officially isn't getting ICS, doesn't mean it won't get ported over.
