[Q] Gingerbread ROM Upgrade ? - A7 General

If this guy is right, it looks like we may never even get a gingerbread update from elocity.
http://developer.nvidia.com/tegra/forum/honeycomb-harmony?page=3#comment-8346
FYI: the A7 is on the harmony platform too.
I have sent multiple requests, as well as opened a ticket via phone support with elocity support about the gingerbread update, but have not recieved any answers.
If anyone hears any news about a gingerbread ROM update, could you please post it here. Thank you.

@ cyanogen Froyo just hit AOSP :)

Froyo just hit AOSP
http://twitter.com/cyanogen
Can anyone else confirm? I have no idea where to check.
Cyanogen is a MANS man
And this is coming from a guy who doesn't even root yet...
Andy Rubin just said this at the Moto Droid X event.
Edit: So yeah, it's confirmed. Which means what, we get a Froyo version of CM tonight?
Yay.
Froyo here we come!
Awesome. Cant wait for the CM ROM
Cy says hes going off for the rest of the week though
oh hell yea!!!
as for cm flavoured froyo i rekon its gonna be a couple of weeks!
Was just about to flash to a new rom. Just finished downloading two but looks like I will wait.

We don't even have an official FroYo ROM yet. Give CM a bit of slack.

You're joking right?
It JUST got pushed to AOSP.
these are very exciting times! not just for the CM team, but the community; unfinished/stuck projects especially.
Does this mean we might see an OTA soon?

What does this mean
I am a noob at software development. But I saw the word "OTA Timestamp" , "froyo" at the AOSP source page ( link below)
http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=pl...it;h=3b85269cfe10ec15e9b544dd6964b8c9f5f761f9
Can somebody explain what this means ?
I'm most interested to see if we can get a few more FPS out of 720p recording with a move to Froyo.
Am I the only one that wants an Android.com email address ???!?

Gingerbread for Galaxy 3

Hi All,
I think there has been a lot of enthusiasm about Gingerbread theme and themed ROMs. But any idea whether there would be a Gingerbread 2.3 ROM for G3?
Is there anyone who is working for the same? Since Cyanogen mod does not still work for G3, one of you would need to take the initiative to make a custom rom running Gingerbread for Galaxy 3.
bye

anyone present here can only modify roms at most and give some fixes they cant build a whole rom, only samfimware or Samsung guys can do that and this is not the right place to discuss that go to general forum.

hi
said right my friend or u can also use the Q & A thread
Thread moved to general
I don't think that there will be a 2.3 ROM for the G3 in this life. 2.2 is not released by now and you ask for 2.3?
Samsung has not listed this phone for 2.3 upgrade and its not gona happen for ever.
The only chance we got is using CM7 and port it for SG 3. I have started working on it, hope it gets me atleast some where.

Officially yes, and you are not alone. If you want 2.2 now flash a 2.2 rom. Go to the development section and the stickied thread that starts with READ FIRST to learn more
@braveBuddy Great to know you're working towards porting CM on G3..hope more dev.s join you to make it happen..

Well the web site is just a source for basic information in regards to the MiUi ROM.
The Developers that are in charge of that ROM are most likely independent from that site.
If no one got back to you. I don't know what to tell you. I personally only use Cyanogen(mod) or eViL Dee's Sense 3.0 ROM.
yeah i know. i wrote to the DEV also too but never got back at me...
There are a couple Miui roms in the dev section that are getting tons of support as well as weekly updates. I'm on thederekjay's port of Miui and he updates it a couple times a week. It's based off original Miui rom and gets the weekly updates too

DI07 Bug Thread

Any problems or bugs with the new leak so far?
If so, post them here!
All Epic Users, disregard DI07, its an outdated 2010 article that talks about an old update. Mods Take care of this thread and the other one posted by OP, thank you.
News flash, this is NOT a new leak nor update. This is VERY old. It is Anroid 2.1. We are all on 2.2 (Froyo) waiting on 2.3 (Gingerbread).

Or on EH17 waiting for some 4.0 action LOL
I seriously thought this was a joke. Not sure why anyone would want to go back to Eclair, but good luck. Should have a long and dignified bug list.

The roms in the dev forum are FROM ACER.. That is what you asked..
THE ANSWER TO the above is NO.. THERE IS NO Released update from acer for the a500 tablet.There is no full Officially released ICS Rom of any kind from Acer for out tablet. the leak is as close as you will get right now.. acer says mid April is when they push to ics will start. If you want your tablet stock WAIT..
ok ... i want the close rom that there is to the stock
so i think i need to wait for these four rom's

People does not simply give answer without making some kind of "where is waldo game"
here your answer dude
Have the driver ADB ready for your tablet
FIRMWARE LEAK STOCK
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1524736
I updated it with the stock recovery (dunno if you can do it with the custom one... have to check for this to be sure)
ROOT WITH
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1546593
DO NOT INSTALL FACELOCK , it's not yet working totally
DO NOT INSTALL ACER RING (up to you but it's really useless...)
IF YOU WANT change to RW the /system (for modify some stuff)
an application will be installed with the rooting one,
normally it's will be the first app on your tablet,
1 - click on it,
2 - then press first option and second
reboot your tablet
redo exactly the step 1 and 2
then open root explorer and you normally are able to change /system to RW
end of story. have a nice day
PS:
Why the leak one and not custom rom
well I never got any SOD problem, or anything else than CUSTOM got...
CUSTOM are good it's a fact, but for sure the "Official" rom will probably got less bug, I use to have taboonay before, I didn't go back to stock because not satified, just because I wanted to... that's it.
DEV are doing a great job and that have to be said

I think you need to work on your reading comprehension a bit. Erica quite clearly said "RELEASED", and she's 100% right. There is currently NO officially released ICS update for the A500. We know it's coming, and we know roughly when, but it's not RELEASED yet.

Reading comprehension owns you...where did i dispute what she posted ?
the links posted support what she stated....
although they will be releasing it, something she did not mention, the link to Acer gives a est time line ...
