Android 3.0 SDK to be released next week.

This may be old news but I thought I'd throw it out there anyways. From what I've read the Android 3.0 gingerbread SDK is supposedly to be released next week. I'm not really a developer of Android applications as of right now but it still seemed note worthy.

3.0 is gingerbread. I suspect your source is wrong.

I wasn't thinking straight.

Thats cool, because now we should see all new features?
Or it isnt the final Gingerbread SDK?

Cool!
What's your source on this?

It may be true. Gingerbread final is promised at the end of the year, so a beta SDK will probably pop up somewhere soon. Google's goal is to have as many apps ready to be installed as possible.

Does any one know if the epic will be updated to 2.3 or any rumors. About that?

Kind of the wrong section of the forum to ask, but doubtful none the less. Most phones only get one legit update.

Gingerbread 2.4

If im right gingerbread 2.4 will be released soon. Ive heard 11 februari or march. Any know of the exact release date? Ive held a unoffice test phone with this version of gingerbread which had simular hardware as the hd2. The new gingerbread works way better then the 2.3.x version.

Heared heared. Where? Heared at womans on sauna?
Ok ok, peace. Little joke needed on busy days.
But anyway, where you got this information, can you share?

Here is a youtube video of Android 2.4 aka Ice Cream
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s0G9LgFarsU&feature=related

Until today, we have not seen GINGERBREAD 2.4.

Cyanogen released rc4

Cyanogen mod is so confusing...I haven't seen anything on 6 lately, so I guess eeryone moved on to cm7, but what exactly is cm7?
Cyanogen releases an official rc andit should work on all phones running cm? So he's like the central hub for updates? Is that why official cm support is needed?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App

Lol.. cm7 is based off Gingerbread, cm6 is based off Froyo..
And of course your not going to see anything off cm6. That's almost like saying now that froyo is out for the epic, devs will continue to release 2.1 roms.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

Cm6 was based on Froyo 2.2
Cm7 is based on the current android build gingerbread 2.3
so you can see why we gave up on cm6...
the galaxy S lines don't really get support from cyanogen i believe...

Yeah last time I checked I don't think I seen one galaxy s under its supported device section
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

Yeah I know the sgs isn't supported and that's why our guys are doing it on their own, but when the epic is able to get cm7 to run on par with official cm7 and it gets officially supported by cyanogen and crew, will that mean whenever he releases an update, everyphone (epic, htc's,blah) that run cm7 will be able to run it day 1 without no problems?
This is purely a curious question

No it just means that once we have official CM acceptance Team Douche and co will work to fix any issues with our phone in future builds

What effectively CM tries to accomplish is to be more then a rom but a whole Android distribution...similar to how there are multiple linux distributions...so their goal is to have 1 single OS function across all devices...similar to how you have on a PC where you choose the OS and just install it..
Only when SGS is fully working and complaint with CM standards will it show up there.

CM8 is being rumored...Honeycomb edition

I find that extremely unlikely, there is no Honeycomb source code from which to build.

He's just following the current 'naming scheme' of cyanogen. Cm6 was froyo, cm7 is gingerbread; since honeycomb is the next update it'll follow suit and be cm8 if they move to it.

Sent from my I897 using XDA Premium App

Google search is your friend. No need to start a new thread.
Honeycomb is Android 3.+
Ice Cream Sandwich is Android 4.0

2.4 is still Gingerbread. It is a minor branch.
2.0 and 2.1 were both Eclair as well.

Looking at it with Xperia range numbers, the 2.3.4 update is going to be named somthing like:
Code:
[STRIKE]3.1.X.A/C/D/F/G.X.XXX[/STRIKE] 4.0.A/C/E/F/G.X.XXX

there were rumors about 2.5 but 3.0 HC "honey comb" took it's place.
All the versions are named alphabetically.

As it's not a major update it will have3.1​As opposed to the current3.0​
Like I mentioned in the post earlier.
Edit:
It will probably be named 4.0 for the 2.3.4 update on the Xperia's

Thread closed on account of the fact its not x10 related

I do not expect it, but Gingerbread has become boring to me. Very boring.

So get into Froyo! Utopia is the future. All of Swiftdroids features but stable & a better fit for GT540 hardware.

Okay, I will install Utiopia. But I hate that white status bar. Is battery life longer?

android 2.4 is now know as Android 4.0. and will be first seen on the nexus 3.

I agree with fishears, miroslav_mm projects, Utopia and soft-mod 2.1 are great peace of work!!!

OMG u guys tempt me. i will change to froyo for now

OCD?
There's something about Android 2.3 (you could say Swiftdroid) that makes me want to keep it. It's probably obsessive-compulsive disorder as it's the latest version of Android that is available for the LG GT540.

I thought the version number was 4.0 not 2.4? Would make more sense for a universal version of android
