put it this way... the G1 runs 2.2, we walk on the moon, we give millions of dollars to Justin Bieber, Obama got elected (had to)
Anything is possible.
Leaked specs show it to be just another Galaxy S phone but with Gingrbread. Also, since it has support for T-Mobile's AWS bands, the modem should probably work, too. It's basically the Vibrant but with a front-facing camera (which we can mod in anyways). I'll be shocked if there isn't a port within days of the Nexus S being released. And hell, Samsung and T-Mo should make the damn firmware downloadable to us! (OK, that last part will never happen...well, not officially

I mean, this is the exact same phone we have but with the front-facing camera installed.
So can we get the rear camera to work with no banding with some firmware from this being ported over? I think that's the best thing of porting over some stuff from this phone.

Not directly @donut, but...
The point of it being a NEXUS is that it is the most open phone. The nexus is the android development phone. It is pure android with all support coming straight from google! Everyone should hope this is not just a rumour. This would hopefully get us 2.3 & more on the fast track.
Of course there are specifics that may not translate but here's to hoping : cheers:!

Well said. The phone is real. All we need is to confirm the hardware is exactly the same (except the camera part). If the hardware is the same, that makes things easier. As the ROM chefs/devs here have shown, porting is doable among Galaxy S phones with the hardware being so similar.

Umm..so far all the Gingerbread roms that are out are still having some issues...low in- call volume, no hardware acceleration(videos), no flashlight...etc...and aren't quite fully functional as Froyo is just yet..which is perfectly understandable...
I was just wondering if your up coming rom will still have those issues....or if you are going to blow our minds with a fully functional Gingerbread rom for the Fasciante...

Completely understand your frustration. Unfortunately, if the devs don't have a full, stable source drop to work with, we really can't hold the current crop of common /generally recognized GB issues against them. Heck, they're probably more frustrated about it than the rest of us
OP, I look forward to the upcoming release and maturation of your project!
Another option would be terrific, but good luck with the SD card!

My point is that no legit devs post coming soon ****...they work on something then release it...hype is just lame and time after time these threads end in disappointment or the rom just doesn't offer anything worth a hype thread

I do know one of my roms will have 2.4 Ice Cream when google releases the SDK. But most are AOSP coupled with Touchwiz. They will also come with my version of The JIT Compiler. They will also come with my version of build.prop tweaks. And more.

I don't know if HTC will officially support Ice Cream for our Evo's. I just remember the issues that the devs ran into prior to the official release of GB. I hope I'm wrong because it would be great to have. I also wonder if our hardware even meets the system requirements.

ICS is designed to help end fragmentation. It should run fine on the hardware. I doubt htc will support it tho.

If this (http://androidandme.com/2011/08/news/13-things-we-might-see-with-the-release-of-android-4-0-in-q4/) is correct, any phone running 2.3 should be able to handle ICS.
Evo 4g is close to its end of life the only way we could get this is thru roms
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
It's interesting at least that we may start getting hints as to what lies ahead for both Android phones and tablets. I'm sure the CM folks will end up porting, so we'll likely see it on the EVO 4G at some point.
Looks like it's mostly UI changes though. Wish they'd posted a screenie of the Gmail app changes; I love the app but the look of it is plain and ugly.
I honestly doubt the Evo will get ICS, we barely got GB, and its not like that OTA was welcomed with open arms.

Considering people have gotten 2.3 running on the G1, I think it's entirely feasible that the EVO could run ICS.
It may not be without it's problems, but I'm sure after some refining it could be perfectly usable.

Source was never released (if I remember correctly). So that's why we never saw any roms.
Sent from my rockin 3D
Honeycomb was designed for tablets and plus the source was never released to prevent more fragmentation. Icecream is supposed to bridge the gap between gingerbread and honeycomb.
Looks like it will be coming out around the holidays for the Samsung phones
This is from Gizmocrunch
http://www.gizmocrunch.com/android/7967-samsung-nexus-prime-android-ice-cream-sandwich
"Now what's interesting is that both Samsung devices are mentioned as getting the Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich update, leaving the HTC built Google Nexus One out of the equation. So it looks like Samsung will have a big advantage over other Android phone manufacturers come this holidays when Ice Cream Sandwich is set to debut."

he already have a port from the NS4G, its ICS but not official i guess, still works haha.
Mods,
This thread title either needs to be changed or moved to the Nexus forum.
1. Misleading thread title
2. We already HAVE a port of ICS (actually 4)
3. The nexus s leaks were fine
4. Old news
5. Why does it matter when we have aokp and cm9...
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA
OP, or mods, please change the misleading title.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA
Wow smh at you guys.
yes, the title was extremely misleading (kudos OP), however that is big news.
Yeah we have cm9 and aokp but those are buggy as hell because they don't really have an outline to follow.
Now what this means is, since they're finally getting official ics (even though it leaked already, but I'm guessing marcusant doesn't have a nexus s because that leak was kinda like eb13, where **** worked but it clearly wasn't ready for primetime.) we will probably get official ics on the other galaxy s phones since they're all the same, which will make it a lot easier for cm9 to get developed.
Remember what happened with cm7 about a day after samsung finally released ei22 I think? Idr the build but ii do remember cm7 getting a HUGE jumpstart after we got an official gb w/ source.
You guys need to stop jumping down peoples throats when they're sharing news in the GENERAL forum. You people ***** about this but not when there's a thread from a previous developer that's not even on sprint anymmore talking about that yay (although I have no problem with that thread either, it just seems some of your priorities need to be worked out.)
No one was jumping down anyone's throats, we just don't like misleading titles and want it changed or moved or deleted.
If you don't agree, suppose I post a new thread called "Epic to get official OTA tomorrow" and then post "Just kidding! Gotcha!" in the text. Wouldn't like that would you? That's how this came off sounding. The title should be "Official ICS Announced for the Nexus."
Just drop it, everybody make mistakes and I doubt the OP made a mistake. He/she was thinking about the community as a whole and how having a device similar to ours will be getting ICS officially. If the title was so misleading why the opinion of about why it's misleading need to be known. A simple report to a mod or admin would have had this issue solved without the unneccessary comments from those involved

Now that our awesome CM team did all the hard work and it working almost perfect, of course Samsung is going to give us ICS. I kidd. Hehehe
Im just curious to know what some of the new features on JB will be, and also what do you hope JB will bring?
Project butter is the main thing if I'm not mistaken. This is basically ICS but built much, much better in terms of code, fluidness, and speed. Correct me if I'm wrong. There are a few other nice additions but nothing major. Things like expandable notifications, new lockscreen animation, ect.
Sent from my SPH-D700 CM9 4.0.4
Something I've been wondering, if any devs working on the JB port can comment, is to what degree the effects of Project Butter actually show up on our Epics? Is it a significantly noticeable difference or do our hardware limitations still show up markedly?

Well on the half/not-working non source port, it ran pretty damn smooth, noticeably so. Other than that, when it comes along I think it'd be better for people to try it themselves.

I'm posting from JB on my xoom from teamEOS. Since it's on this device, hopefully it's not too long for cm10. Until viperx came onto HTC One X, I had all 3 of my Android devices running cm9. Now it's spread, cm9 was on xoom until JBs installation today, slimICS on SGS and of course viperx on HTC One X.

I agree with you about the ETAs, but I think you misunderstood this circumstance... He is not asking the developers, he is asking everyone in this thread. It can't really be called an ETA, because estimations require some knowledge of the activity behind the scenes (somewhat like an educated guess) - if anything, he is asking for a WSTA - a Wild Speculation of Time of Arrival
With that said, there is even less point in asking for that than for an ETA, because all of our answers are unfounded guesses - but at least he isn't directly bothering the developers (they don't have any obligation to respond in this thread, so it's their choice if they're bothered by it, unlike in their threads)
