With the release of ICS next week, does anyone know if the source code will be released for it as well? I know a while back that they said they would release the code when it was ready after Honeycomb launched.
Google say it will be open sourced, so it should be.
Oh, and we don't KNOW that ICS is released next week. So far it's just rumour.

Don't start a flame war.
I wont be dealing with it.
Any news on when Samsung will be releasing their source code?
Wasn't there a certain amount of time they have to release the codes after they release the rom? Was it 60 days?
I heard they released it for the captivate, ours can't be too far behind.
I didn't see the US captivate source unless I just entered in the wrong model number.
They must release it in like 30 days.
They dont have any othr choice

From what I get out of this, I have been told I am wrong.... and I honestly hope I am... but this is how I see it.
They have 60days according to the what ever open source agreement I don't feel like remembering what its called right now, ha. AFTER and OFFICIAL update to let the source code go.
HOW EVER! When they announced that they WILL let the source out... they said with in 60days of the OFFICIAL OTA, its all in the wording. Someone else pointed out that an update through Kies is NOT an official update, the only way it is official is if Tmobile pushes it through an OTA... and if you think about it that true.
But they pissed everyone off once and there was a backlash against them.... do you really think they will mess up like that again?

Yes. Source code doesn't look like it will be released soon. When it finally is, I'm pretty sure we will have 2.3.2 working.
CM 7 for Galaxy S is pretty close to done. Codeworkx just posted a video of CM 7 Gingerbread running on the I9000 pretty flawlessly.
It's here.

Krylon360 is working out the bugs on a TW build of Gingerbread as well (its working, just buggy). And Eugene seems to have figured out the battery drain from the I9000 kernels so if he has indeed, a LOT of I9000 things will be ported. This coming month is my expectation we will see fully functional Gingerbread on the Vibrant.
The source code for Froyo won't be relevant soon really. . .
Official isn't how the copyright is worded. Its 60 days from when you release. Putting something on Kies, an official source of software from Samsung counts as a release. Doesn't have to be OTA, doesn't have to be delivered by UPS, all that matters is it is released through an official channel, which it has been.

I think I read the rogers captivate, and the armani branded captivate source were released.
How long did it take for the i9000 2.2 Source to be released?

Ka6 has to be the official cause I remember sammy saying that they released the official 2.2 update on fb
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
For anyone whois interested, and anyone ready to start DEV'n with the latest version of Honeycomb.
The GPL source code for Android 3.2 is available in AOSP.
More info at Android Building @Google Groups
http://groups.google.com/group/android-building/msg/6410b44798c19d61
NOTE; It isnt the full code. This is just the LGPL/GPL portions
I.e. the Linux kernel.

Dave
Thats all it is, just the kernel source? I was hoping it was more....

Its already been said that honecomb will remain closed source then ics which will be for phones and tablets will be open source again

Asus tweeted that 3.2 on transformer is in progress and maybe released soon.
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
Soon is anybody's guess?
Heh, Im used to Samsung's idea of soon. Aka, 7-9months after release.
It wont be too long, Asus is staying on top of their updates
Last time they said soon, i believe it was about 2 weeks? Not bad imho.
If I am not mistaken eee transformer was released late April. On 31st of May Asus released 3.1 update. Thus I would expect 3.2 update in 2-3 weeks.

But how long after 3.1 released on the Xoom did Asus make their own release? I think that would be more indicative of when they will release 3.2. Hopefully their kernal source doesn't take as long (relatively) as last time.

No it has not. If it has really been said, from google, then go.
The last I've heard (and heard repeatedly, from google) is that it will all be open source, and they just have reasons not to release source yet. 3.x is still a very new platform and they expect much more.
Source will be released summer/fall w/ ICS.
I hope ICS will arrive on the TFv1. If open sourced a lot of fixes and mods are on the way for sure. Not sure how open access to Tegra 2 will be though

Sprint/Samsung better not leave us hanging, dammit.
Anyone see if Samsung released the source to see if it contains Epic/Victory code?
Looks like the source is on https://opensource.samsung.com/ SPH-I500 EH09
According to Norton Ink CEO:
Article said:
The CEO of Notion Ink, Rohan Shravan, is at it again with news about the Ice Cream Sandwich source code release, saying it will be released November 17. While it's tempting to just toss this aside as another rumor in the ICS/Galaxy Nexus craze of late, Mr. Shravan has a track record that shows he's usually right. Last year, he did the same thing with the Gingerbread release, accurately predicting more than could be a good guess, and just last month he told everyone about the OMAP chipset and Ice Cream Sandwich using them as a reference platform. When he talks, it's always worth listening, and the Nov. 17 date has already been thrown out there as the European release. If we see source code on the 17th, the 18th is going to be a very fun day for a lot of us.

Is no one developing ICS for the shift?
Shifted from my EVO.

Cyanogenmod is. Steve (forgot his last name) just tweeted it recently and said to give it a couple months. I would guess when that is released then other modders will release roms based on it. I am not sure about sense versions though since i have no clue how the source code for that works and i would guess the shift isn't on sprints update list but hopefully I'm wrong. Also miui is sure to release a version most likely which will probably be ported. It will be a couple months until we have stable releases though so if you just can't wait your best option is to buy a nexus.
Ice Cream Sandwich's source code has just been unleashed, which means it's time for the folks over at CyanogenMod to saddle up the horses, and get to work. In a Twitter post published on Tuesday, the Mod squad confirmed that it has already begun working on CM9, though it won't be released for another two months. CM8, in case you were wondering, was likely pegged for Android 3.0, but with Google holding tight to its Honeycomb source code, CyanogenMod may just leapfrog it altogether and jump straight to Cloud Nine. We'll all know more, come January.
