Thought I already was ;D
I can't do it without source code so it'll probably be a month or so after Google's official announcement

The phone itself should have no problem running it in theory, however, the whole experience might (probably will) suck due to the lesser hardware in the Wildfire.
That is unless Google tweaked & performance tuned it and all its new features so that it does not require anything more powerful that the 2.2 does.

Jacob you're awesome!
Iv'e heard that things like scrolling and stuff will be smoother, will it be on the Wildfire?

He said he'll try port it to the wildfire
I haven't rooted my wildfire yet, but maybe Gingerbread will change that

Funniest comment on XDA. BTW ur awesome Jacob. I hope Google doesn't specify u need hardware out the wazoo and stuff. I think Google wouldn't be so evil and let Gingerbread run smoothly on low-end hardware.

no one knows until the source is released, me or jacob or someone else ported it and tried it out.. and yes I will try to beat jacob to be the first to port it for wildfire

Most official Wildfires still haven't got 2.2 yet so most like custom mods will be our only source for 2.3. I haven't seen much that is interesting in 2.3. As far as I can see it is going to bring updates that make android more tablet friendly.

[Q] Honeycomb on Hero?

can anybody port the 3.0 honeycomb version to our beloved Hero?
they did it to the G1/Magic, here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-RKEHfOwnSI&feature=player_embedded
any hope??

If there is a port to G1/Magic I guess that is possible a port to Hero..

yea, let us know
it's certainly buildable for the hero - but most hardware will be broken I would imagine.

Sitting here, playing with an ugly port of the sdk, the first images,most just to remove my pin code so I can get into the system

yes elelinux!
do you think when the sources get released you would have much chance of building a full (or near full) working honeycomb rom?

I think it's possible, but it will not be easy. Especially because Honeycomb is made for tablets... and not for our phones.

If it's built from SDK I bet that almost none of the hardware is working...

That is correct, but strangely all the backlighting of the buttons etc worked out of the box, buttons it is easy to fix if you want.
Just a little test for fun nothing else, also saw that there was support for mdpi so theoretically it could be working on Hero with some manual intervention.
Another thing to, boot up without problems

Yes but hardly anything is working! Even the Nexus one has no audio,wifi,bluetooth,calls!

Yes, it is foolish to ask for a ROM that's meant to run on tablets to be made for phones. But I never have never said and never will say no to a new ROM...
Sent from my Hero using XDA App

Yes it's going to run like ass and our screens won't do any good either.
But... as always, I'm eager to see what crazy stuff the ROM-people come up with.

but the sdk version includes some feature of switching from tablet to mobile mode by simply changing resolution... they won't have included it if it wasn't meant to be run on mobiles, and in 3.1, mobile (2.x) and tablet (3.0) development lines shall be joined (says wikipedia lol). moreover, lots of people out here said it would be impossible to run 2.2 and 2.3 on hero, and right now i'm looking at my rooted android 2.3 hero which is incredibly smooth and stable (way better than with stock os). so why shouldn't it be possible? ele just said even backlight of the buttons worked out of the box, which was not case in 2.x. i'm still believing in our developers (although i can't code well enough to support them ) and i'm sure they'll do some magic
greets, Summoner

Do you really use wikipedia for truths? Anyone can add to Wiki?!

no i don't... i just think it sounds possible... otherwise, there would be two future development lines which the consequence would be that there were VERY different features depending where more / the better devs work on lol^^
i didn't claim it was the absolute truth, otherwise i wouldn't have explicitly said it came from wiki ...

Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Gingerbread Update Might Deliver Multi-touch and Mor

Just read on a blog that Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Gingerbread Update Might Deliver Multi-touch and More.How far can this be true ?

Might is a very tame word. Considering the device does not have the ability to handle anything more than dual touch, this is interesting news.

it will bring multi-touch, resolution 1024x768, blu-ray support.. etc..
and all that on 2.9.26 kernel build.. uv, oc too.. come on ppl be happy if that gb even moves with that time/medi-scape s**t...

Are you crazy? It will deliver 1440x900 resolution, 1080p recording at 60fps, 8mp cap lifted to 16.1mp, fps cap lifted to 58fps including 3D with some accents of time/mediapain.

Well, this was originally posted in brazilian Sony Ericsson official Blog, so I think we could give it a shot. A lot of people said X10 wouldn't support even dual touch, and now we have it. Maybe Sony Ericsson found a way to fix it, despite the hardware limitation, bypassing, I don't know. If SE said multitouch will come with the 2.3 update, I guess I will wait hopefully for that.
The source is in portuguese and I'm too lazy to translate it now, but you guys can believe what I'm saying or use a translator .

2.3 also brings: Full HD screen resolution, native .exe execution, CoD Black Ops pre-installed, slide out joypad like on Xperia Play, and Airplane mode finally turns phone into airplane of your choice, just like we all expected when seen it for the first time...
Also, don't forget about kexec exploit fix == stuck on SE's FW... But with all these functions, why would you want to switch to another ROM??? Enjoy

lol hahaha... iam so excited about the new GB update coming soon...

Read somewhere that the official.update will be released.at the end of July.

Nope. He hacked the CPU power to route it through a Galaxy S2

Pshhh dual core is sooo the day before, talk to me when you have 8 cores implemented

You need Galaxy S II, then with simple CPU reroute process via Wi-Fi, BT, J-Tag, USB and a few more solder points you connect X10 to Galaxy's CPU.
Then you take super glue, and stick the phones together. zdzihu will publish the pictures soon
It was easy, and during the process RSA key was found - it was a nice surprise to find all root, red and brown keys under the CPU on a piece of paper, hand-written with signature of SE's CEO

Yes! we don't need official rom,, custom roms are more better

Who needs a official ROM now?

I think custom rom especially gingerdx rom is much more better than the official one. It faster and smooth like hell..^^
X8 with gingerdx v11, [email protected], supercharger v6, fast reboot, quadrant score more than 1100++..^^
Thank Doixanh!!!

if sony release 2.3 it will be helpful for our dev. they can take lib from it..

I Lol'd. This is the first time I saw a inaccurate info in GSMarena. But even there is really a 2.3 stock ROM. I'll try it but I expect I'll go back to GingerDX after a few hrs.
GingerDXv011 is a must.

Perhaps because the devs here can improve on their roms using the SE libs?

You can't have this on the X8 because of the following reasons:
We need at least 512 Mb of Ram. 1 Ghz Cpu minimum or at least 825 mhz.

You must be using Xperia™ arc S, Xperia™ neo V or Xperia™ ray, running the latest Xperia™ software release (which is 4.0.2.A.0.42). Please note that you can’t use the original Xperia™ arc or Xperia™ neo, as they have different partition layouts.

I've never said that he's working for nothing..
Just that x8 has hardware limits.. It's very difficult for me to try explain it in english..
Look. Try to port windows 7 on a 800mhz with 256mb ram.. It will be extremely difficult.. I think it's a little the same.
Course he's doing great job.. I tested it and it's running well.. but I'm perplexed that we can run ICS with all of his fonctionnality on our x8.
But I hope I'm wrong
