2.3

So gingerbread is running on n900, hd2, iPhone3g and EVERY other android phone, EXCEPT the epic.
Why do these non-android phones have the latest build before we do?
What's so different in the epic that gingerbread won't work?

Most of the important stuff is done retardedly by Samsung, and they don't release source code for their retarded implementation. They make it pretty hard.

Well, at least this thread isn't about Froyo...

I haven't seen anything about why is 2.3 hard to port...only threads about froyo
I was only curious. I wanna know if its because no one is working on it because they're working on cm6 or is there really something blocking it.
I don't mean to belittle the devs working on cm6, their hands are tied and this wasn't meant for them and I'm only waiting on mms to just flash it and never look back
I'm just a curious little monkey!

I wondered about that myself.Iphone 3g grts 2.3 and we dont-sht dont sound right.Devices that not meant to run Android are running it.Samsung already made thwir money of Epic why these mf's wont give us the source so we can make 2.3 ourself?

Its garbage. Its a proof of concept. We had gingerbread booting on the epic like a day after its release, but not in a functional state. Why completely rebuild an OS when you can take what we have and make it as functional as possible. It would be a waste of dev talents to hand build a Frankenstein gingerbread when there is so much else to work on.

Can't imagine why you wouldn't be feeling it.

It's not a finalized version. There are bugs and such because its a leak. Its more then likely a leak of a beta version of 2.2

The DL30 leak is great, yes a bit buggy at times, but I also have no to desire to even think about 2.1 again. So happy to have some of the little features I've been missing. I was just about to give up on my fascinate, but the same day I was talkin to a buddy at work the leak came out. I was seriously sittin at work b!tchen about not have 2.2 and check on here and BAMMM.. there it was. I had 2.2 loaded on my phone faster then you could blink! lol

What's up with our GB release??

So, its been 5 days since our official release of gingerbread but only two roms are using it. Hell I'm even running a Rom built off the shift port. Is it junk or something?? I figured by now, we would have a ton of devs using it. Not trying to raise Hell, just curious. Figured a Rom built off of it would be much more stable and faster than a port from another phone.

I'd guess that its because it is only sense 1.0. MikG and Synergy are both solid and stable, and they have sense 2.1. I think that for most people, going back to sense 1.0 isn't acceptable. Especially when the shift ports are as stable as they are. I'm sure someone will work on the OTA rom though.

Thanks. I wasn't aware it was sense 1.0. That's really disappointing. As for the comments about the release date being the 9th, what makes a difference? Is it gonna change in some drastic way? I doubt it.

Nope.
We're loving the recent push of Android 2.3 Gingerbread updates, and the latest group to get a sweet taste of the Gingerbread will be HTC Evo 4G owners.
Sprint announced this morning that it will begin rolling out an over-the-air update on June 6 to deliver the latest software release. As usual, the update will come in batches and users will receive a notification on their smartphones to let them know when the update is ready for download.
However, if you simply can't wait, there will be a manual download option starting June 3, where you can access the update by going to the Menu option on the Evo 4G and then selecting Settings > System updates > HTC software update. You can find more details and instructions on Sprint's Community site.

It's so weird my EVO stays luke warm during charging periods. I always find it odd how some can be totally not hot, and then others will get extremely hot. I would have to say my Pre would always get the hottest on the Touchstone.

Oh, one last thing. Cant Cyanogen use our release to make CM7 more stable?? I think sense roms and AOSP roms both have benefits that I like but its beyond me why Cyanogen cant get GPS to work without having to tickle your sphincter with your big toe everytime you switch roms.

You are welcome to develop yourself if you don't feel that the free service provided around here is fast enough.

now that the boot loader is unlocked...

Will there eventually be any roms that get rid of the webtop stuff all together? I have played around with it a bit and ultimately found it to be worthless and haven't used it since.
I want vanilla android! It sucks that is so much to ask for in this market. (I had Nexus S but cannot live with t-mo.

I'm sure there are devs working on porting ROMs such as CM7 or AOSP. Patience is key right now. I know some CM devs are receiving some Atrixes.
Give it a few weeks. ROMs don't appear over night.

Hopefully man I just want pure 100% android

Me too. I could care less about CyanogenMod. I want PURE ANDROID!!

I just want my Tegra 2 dual core phone to HANDLE LIVE WALLPAPERS.
I also want the WIFI to work (stopped detecting WiFi altogether)

Will be posible to port any variant of Honeycomb? Honey can handle the DualCore module, is AOSP and has HighRes. I think it will be better than any 2.x.x. Motorola Xoom has a very similar hardware so I don't think that it's imposble, but all you are the genius here

Multicore works perfectly fine in the current version of Android on the Atrix, as well as Gingerbread. Honeycomb will not be backported. Look forward to Ice Cream Sandwich instead, which is the "new hotness" I guess you could say.
If you want better multicore support, look to the app developers to add it into their apps. Android can run multicore but without support in the app, as I understand it, it won't use both cores. I am sure someone else with more knowledge about the underlying structure of Android could shed better light on the subject.
Honestly, where does this misinformation stem from?

Again, the best way to find that all out would be to look for the thread under android development and find team ramens thread for that Rom. I can tell you that its based off of Deck's work with some different stuff thrown in there though. Pretty much all of the different ICS roms for the evo 4g have the same things working, and none of them have working cameras or 4g/wimax working as far as I know.

is there a an estimated time frame on when camera will work on the ics roms for evo.
