Thanks ...I think its a good idea to have one location to look for updates and discuss. Thank you for making this rom for the nexus s! (Just kidding! Too soon?)
Sent from my Google Nexus S using xda premium

Too soon, too soon xD
good idea with this thread

haha yeah maybe your right that its to soon, but i read that drew (yes THAT drew) is getting out his update soon and miui also said that theyd have ics soon so i figuered better to soon than to late! ;D

i really want a full build!!! hardware acceleration is what i want but can't try in the sdk port ><
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App

yeah, good idea mate..
hoping that this thread will not go under in discussions who has stolen the rom from who and so on.. simply updates - no discussion from who and why and how.
actually I run the ics port b12, quite good, only the market update crash-issue is ugly .. let's hope and wait for the devs to get ICS sooner mostly stable

i was using b12 as well, but then i swiched back to gb miui because of the market, whatsapp, sms (maximaum one page) and all the fcs...
but i fell madly in love with ics and i keep looking for roms for the nexus s all the time! ;D

I think drew should just upload now... he can get out the stable version later!
I have to satisfy my lust for ics! ;D

Way to go OP. I was following other threads here and, like many, I find it hard to find an update on what's happening without searching the internet up and down. Those other threads became laughable. Why would anyone send you hate mail for hopefully clarifying things with a consolidated thread. Good to see this.
Sent from my Google Nexus S

Where, oh where, is our nexus s ics update? Any release date rumour?
Anyway, good thinking. Feels good to have a topic to go to.

koush's ROM seems doing fine except for camera and wifi according to him.
i hope he shares it soon eventhough it's not fully functional.

-Google

There will not be a stable ROM until the source is released. Not the source for the Galaxy Nexus but the actual source. That will happen when the OTA is released for your NS most likely. CYANOGEN will wait for real source as will the MIUI team.
You will see some adapted and modded ROMs based on the Galaxy Nexus code. Most likely they will have modified GB kernels I believe.
I would not be surprised to see OTAs for NS right after the Galaxy Nexus hits stores in the US, definitely b4 Christmas.

Say what you want about drew but at least he had no problem releasing half busted roms. Now that people are making source roms we are begging for them to at least give us a half busted rom while we wait but no one will ugh! I don't care if just the camera and wifi don't work! That's leaps and bounds above what were used to!

So you mean that google only released the source for the Galaxy nexus and not the actual source code for ICS 4.0? have they ever done that before?

SGS2 ICS porting to SGS...possible?

There is samsung's ics for galaxy s 2, so is it possible to port it to sgs?
http://www.sammobile.com/2011/12/14/exclsuive-android-4-0-1-by-samsung-for-sgs2-custom/
There are only few features what can be ported to i9000 cause of reallly diffrent pcb used in sgsII.. more realiable is using sources from nexus S when they will be avaible... also if samsung is working on ics for sgsII they can use their resources to made rom for i9000 preaty fast.. and here is one more thing samsung not forgot about us cause of relasing few new roms in past month even yesterday xD
Ok, thanks for your answer. Let's hope that nexus s ics sources comes out soon.
We have ufficial ics from samsung
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
there are already very good ports by team hack sung, why bother with those other ones?
Nexus S also as not received the official ICS yet, their ICS ports are weaker than the i9000 ICS ports
quite offtopic answer but team hack sung could make their build more modern.. that means go step further and dont using old kernel resources 2.6.35/7 and go direct to kernels 3.0.8... (they need to port drivers to new api anyway) only nikademus pawtip onecosmic AFAIK(I'm new here in i9000) trying to do sth with it... but i know that kerels 3.0.x works with less laginnes after some time,, its may be cause of many junks and workarounds in obsolete 2.x.x kernels.... thats my point
Yeah as said the ICS builds posted in the Android Development forum would be much better than bloated touchwiz ICS. If you have problems with bugs it's best to be patient until they are fixed.

[READ]Custom 4.0.4 ROMs-NOT until source drops!

Im getting tired if I read in a rom thread "is this rom 4.0.4 based?"
NO ITS NOT! (not until the source drops, or we get a ota! )
Just to clear up the confusion
Sent from my Nexus S using xda premium
your right but people don't read and others get misinfo from others who have no clue..just causes confusion for inexperienced people
i understand your frustration and reason to post this
but wont change anything really
Just wait for version 4.0.5, which will be released next month (March) for the NS.

Your source? Please tell me it isn't the french image posted with no real source?
ok, so no full aosp roms...but what about customized stock roms?? You don't need source for that, do you? Can't we just get some roms built on stock 4.0.4 with some kang features? That's what I really want anyway. IME, stock roms are always more stable, and the customizations are a really nice addition
Ns4g got the 4.0.4 update! So the source is already out isnt it?
Or how is it possible that 4.0.4 based roms are out?

No the custom roms based on 4.0.4 are based on the leaked 4.0.4 build. NS4G didnt get the 4.0.4 update yet.

Vote for SGS to get MIUI V4

Hi all!
As you may know, or don't know, MIUI China has launched a poll on Facebook which device we want to have MIUI V4 on next. Although the requirements say that they will only port it when ICS is available from manufacturer, I personally think we might make a chance because we already have CM9 running on our device. They could take it as a base to port MIUI V4 officially to our SGS.
Like their page on Facebook and vote for our beloved Samsung Galaxy S!

after using AOKP roms i think i will never using miui :
1-AOKP have more customization
2-until now not stable at all even the official build(on my s2) AOKP more stable
3- themes is coming now to cm9 and aokp so no need to miui
4-aokp had official support to sgs miui not
5-battery is better on Aokp roms or cm9
6-do u want more
I voted because hey, the more options the better right, but apparently they have said no a few times and i personally prefer a more AOKP/AOSP rom to MIUI. That said, im not writing miui off, it looks pretty good
miui has out to sgs ;> Samsung Galaxy S
Android: 4.0.4 / MIUI: 2.5.11
I agree to the part that miui is the smoothest of 'em all. Some special system in their framework. Nova launcher is a treat to use on miui.
SGS is voted on second place. This shows how many ppl are still using our phone.

4.1 Jelly Bean being pushed to AOSP right now!

This release will be tagged as android-4.1.1_r1 in AOSP. While the source is going live now, the full proprietary binaries for Google-blessed devices won't be rolled out until later. Google plans to directly support the Nexus 7, Galaxy Nexus, Nexus S, and Xoom through AOSP. Be aware that the addition of the Jelly Bean code to AOSP doesn't mean any OTA updates are on the way. This just means anyone can download the full source to begin work.

The Xoom has (almost) the same hardware as the TF101, so we're (almost) in business
can not wait to see update.
I'm excited. Hopefully we can see some ROMS soon. I also hope we can get the CM10 or AOKP variations. Come on DEVS!!!

If you want JB in a timely fashion and in a stable form, my guess is that you should not rely on Asus. Their ICS builds were bug-ridden to the point of driving me away.
Can't wait for some of the devs, maybe Paul Burton, the CM-team, AOKP-team etc to get hacking on this source.
I've read in the 3.1 kernel thread that rayman33 is working on JB. So hopefully he will succeed and we will see a JB ROM soon

All, you know, I will start working on a JellyBean (ProjectButter) - AOSP build as soon as Team Douche (CM9) update their repos.
The SDK port is giving me too much errors, bugs and overall hassle to be worth working on.
Will check the repo the next days for update.
JellyBean on it's way.
Currently fixing up ramdisk as a pre-condition to make the rom boot later.
If the devs are willing to, I might collaborate with guevor (kernel work), sidneyk (ramdisk assist) and sportsstar89/ricardopvz/Roach2010 or any other AOSP-ROM developer or maintainer.
I might just ask them when the source drops.

4.2 is NOT the END of U8800pro!!! latest news from IVAN

according to the latest news of Ivan Autumn, “u+年后由drt团队更新。目前仅限于4.1,我准备跳过4.2,等5.0。 @pikachukaki4 @ax918” --- quoted from Ivan's Sina Weibo (a chinese mini blog like twitter), which means U8800pro's devs are gonna be updated by the drt team (a branch of Shendu team) after Chinese lunar new year, but only supporting 4.1 so far. He himself will skip 4.2, and wait for 5.0.
so as we can happily see 4.2 is NOT the END of U8800pro!!!
everybody hooray!!!

i guess official KLP is nearly impossible, and let's not hope 4.2.1 to be perfect, all i wish is that 4.1's bugs can be fixed, and have a KLP to have a taste of.

Good joke
That's good news but I think that a stable 4.1 or 4.2.1 would be better. Now about drt team. I'm quite sure that pika has already said that. Ivan stopped working on U+ and gave his work to drt team to continue. Now about KLP is STILL just a rumor. Nothing released yet. Remember that Huawei has completely abandoned this phone (oldest rom by Huawei for U+ is ICS)

i'm using the one i attached below, i get this directly from a Chinese forum, so i'm not sure if it is the same one as Pika have posted (but i guess so). so far for like 2 weeks i have not yet come across any random reboots..... not once it's working stable to me.
Good News
We can try the new features on our phone is a good thing, If someone need stability can go 2.2 ROMs, And someone need good features can try the new version. I don’t think that everyone updating their phone is for stability. Waiting for it…………………
Oh no ... 2 weeks, it will write sh1t here in this thread. There is nothing new but still a new topic. Someone has to clean up. Please!
