ICS already on Xoom! Why don't we have it yet??? - Xoom General

Check it out! Forward to 12:00 to see it in action

This has already been posted twice... and the most obvious answer is that it isn't ready yet. Just because you see ICS running and one feature demonstrated doesn't mean the entire thing is ready yet.

Nice to see it running on a Xoom...

Surprised we don't have a leaked beta version of ICS for Xoom.

I'd rather wait for a proper version from the Tiamat guys than have a half working leaked version.

Don't get me wrong, I can't wait for the Tiamat ROM, I just would love to see some in depth ICS videos or be able to play around with it myself on the Xoom. Just to get a taste, even if it is an early build

I ain't trippin' 'bout waitin' for this update. My XOOM runs as I expected it to back in February (and it's about time, too.) The only things that ICS offers that I care about are resizeable Widgets (I hope they mean it this time) and the ability to take screenshots and hide apps without root access.
I can get almost everything done on my XOOM that I planned to do when I bought it. It will be nice to have as long as they don't screw it up. I don't care if it comes.

If you want a taste of ICS, then DL the latest version of ADW Launcher EX. It is just like the ICS launcher (from what I've seen) and it takes a bit of getting used to. A bit too easy to create folders IMO as you move app icons around. Resizable widgets, of course (not new for ADW). Lots of customizations possible.

Yea, we wouldn't want another rushed for the Xoom like honeycomb was with 3.0, 3.0.1, etc. lol
So, yea I don't mind waiting a bit til they get some of the bugs out.

Scrollable widgets kinda suck on ADW launcher EX on my xoom. It's hard to flick and scroll my gmail widget. It's worse when I set gestures to open/close the dock. Everytime I try to scroll widgets up or down, the dock opens or close and I can't even scroll the widget properly.

Not everyone has the time or will to dig through the thread list to check whether or not a particular topic has been discussed already before starting a new thread on the same topic. Besides, let the mods moderate reposts of essentially the same topic. That is why they exist, after all (among many other responsibilities, of course)!
With that out of the way, I share in the OP's eagerness for an ICS port and find it a bit disconcerting that there's no port for my tablet the Xoom, of course nor my phone, the T-Mob GSII. I applaud the devs who are currently toiling away to bring ICS to the Xoom and would definitely buy one of them a round of beer for their hard work with the only catch being since I don't have Paypal (long story) they'd have to be in the NYC area

Motorola already confirmed it will come, just give them time. Those things don't happen overnight, as they have to take the source code, add the hardware drivers (different interface with the kernel than previous versions), add their branded software, and then test everything to ensure it works. It will come, both from the community AND Motorola.

I agree. When Motorola puts out their update, it will be even easier for xda development to make something nice. I am not going to get on people who aren't getting anything out of it. I don't expect free stuff just because someone is working on it anyway.

When I made my initial post about the OP posting this when it was already mentioned twice, both threads where the ICS video were posted were on page 1. Wasn't a lot of searching to be done to see them... I can understand if a related thread is deep or a few pages away, but page one reeks of laziness.

I will poach elephants and club baby seals for ICS on my Xoom before Christmas. Any big game hunters interested, just get in touch.
Oh wait, we're talking about posting on forums

looks like they got the nexus s one ready as ics is available for download on that device. I'd imagine the xoom isn't that far down the line seeing how everyone who works at google owns one.

Are we FINALLY going to be able to WRITE to our SD Cards like EVERY other Android Tablet out there? This whole GED BULL**** has really held back Our Xoom's to there full potential. GED has been a Big Headache and WORTHLESS. It has NOT given us any cool stuff over other Android Tablets. I believe GED has hindered our devices. This will be the LAST GED device I buy as it does NOTHING Special.

Cyanogenmod for Vibrant? How close are we?

I've been following the progress of the Cyanogenmod development for the Vibrant lately and it seems to be moving pretty quickly, i.e. there already booting into the main UI, I believe. Anyway, I'm still wondering if anyone out there has even a rough estimate of when it will be available for the Vibrant? Thanks in advance.

Some time in the near, or distant future. One of Cyanogens pet peeves are people asking when it will be there whenever they are able to get it done. All of the dev's have loved ones, jobs etc. We can give estimates all day long ranging from early September to late October/November. Sadly the only ones that do know would be Wes.

I obviously care, and I would like it soon, but I'm not going to hound Wes or any other devs about it, and I don't think posting a question in a thread counts. I'm not a dev and I can't code, so the best I can do is beta/alpha test, and if no one helps me that's perfectly fine.

What draws you to the UI? cause ADW has the sides scrolling option that TW does but you can use themes and such.
Ive seen the adw drawer. It is very similar and I like the convience of the scrolling bottom on the home screen. But im not too sure of stability. I heavily modded my g1. And from time to time I would get force closes. Im trying to minimize the mods on this phone. The adw drawer is not bad. But right now its not something I want on the phone
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
The TW drawer is nice, on my phone ADW doesn't load right. When I first go to the tray it gets stuck in a loop where it keeps wanting to load the tray it just can't. After about 5 tries it usually loads. The stock icon's look better than the adw galaxy s theme, and even when I say use stock icons it doesn't use the phones stock icons.
aawww, I missed a flame war.
What's a good flame without little old me?

I like TW too.
I like some of the samsung apps over the stock ones.
I'm not as interested in CM6 as I am in Froyo Period.
I would like to see a sense rom, but i doubt that will happen.

dissapointed with fascinate

I am honestly dissapointed with my Fascinate, I bought it because I thought it was going to be very costumizable, with the open loader and all that, the reality is that most devs are not even putting attention to this phone, only a handfull are, I have had it since the first day that came out, and development for this phone is going really really slow, and full of issues.
Relax bro, all good things will come. I was able to mod my phone a lot because these devs are putting all they can into our phone's development.
We already have lag fixes, OC kernels, debloating tutorials, backlight mods, standard unlocking screens, etcetc. Not to mention plenty of themes, apps, and other cool things.
Just relax and take a breather. We got froyo on the way and developers are waiting for that so they can really unleash the beast.

Having come from an N1, which is inarguably the most dev friendly Android phone to date, I have to whole heartedly disagree with the OP. It is a little aggravating dealing with Voodoo now and then, and the processes are a little different, but all in all this phone is fantastic.
I have a custom bare-bone type rom built, fully themed and customized to my hearts content. Four installed launchers that each have a completely different style and feel which I can switch at will. OC Voodoo lag and color fix kernel running on interactive thanks to Jt, and plenty of mix and match mods and hacks to keep me flashing back and forth so frequently no one can actually call me.
We do only have a handful of devs working on the fascinate currently. They happen to also be pretty damn awesome, and give us plenty to work and play with.
I have to re-ask the question, what the hell are you actually looking to do that you can't?

How come everyone who has a bad experience, or is disapointed with there device gets called a troll? Isnt this the purpose of the Forums....to speak your opinion, learn a few things and see if anyone feels the same way?
I remember when everyone ...well people still do make fun of apple fan boyz because thats all they love is apple....but i have the feeling android fanz are becoming the same thing....close minded and haterz!!!
The purpose of android was openess and freedom....so wake up people the trolls are not those who complain about a priduct they paid good $$$$ money fir but are disapointed... the trolls are the haterz and people who beleive that there the best and there way is the only way!!!
Generally because you can sum up their complaints to a) why aren't devs giving me what I want now b) I have had my phone a month, understand very little but need to complain, or c) this phone sucks, I had my g1 for a year and we had tons of mods, dev r teh lazy.
So yeah, trolls.
If they were here to learn... The complaints wouldn't be their posting topics, they would be off learning. They are here to feed off others works and complain.

I agree with you about the general section & out of the box comment. Its just that there are many other threads with the same topic. But he has the right to post this question, and I was merely asking what was wrong with the phone according to him. Out of the box, the phone is still very capable and it honestly doesnt need to be modded. But the mods are very nice.
Also what phone is perfect stock? There's always cons, and that's why we're on the forums looking for answers.

CyanogenMod?

Is it possible for us to start working on a port of it now that we have a functional Clockwork Recovery from Koush?
Edit:
$100 currently pooled for the person who gets fully functional CyanogenMod working on the Tab. (T-Mobile)
If you'd like to make any other contributions to this pool, post it in this thread and we'll get a rough idea of how much money we can send someones way once they get this thing functional and easy to install.
Yep, go ahead and get started on it.
It's unlikely that CM6 will come to the Tab any time soon (if ever...), as they are JUST getting some early betas out for the SGS.
The work required to get it working on any new phone/tablet is immense, and therefor I doubt it'll come to the SGT simply because they don't have the time.... or the Tabs.
Well we have Clockwork and I believe we have the source (right?), so..
Money is a good motivator. I'm willing to donate $100 to the first person who gets a working beta of CM ported to the Tab.
Cyan 6 will be perfect for the Tab I will be the 1st Modify Cyan for an Android Tab.

[Q] What happened to Xoom Zone?

So does anyone know what happened to the Xoom Zone ROM? The thread was closed "at the OP's request"...
I was kind of bummed out when I saw that and that no new thread was started for a new version...
I too would like to know what happened to Xoom Zone. I am currently using the latest release before the thread was closed down. I really liked what they were doing with their ROM. I'm sure it will be back up with something new in due time. I mean, it's too good to drop from the face of the earth right? Unless there was an event in real life that caused the project as a whole to come to a complete halt. Aside from that wild guess, not sure why it closed so suddenly. I was very shocked when I saw this, and I would like to learn more info about it.

I wouldn't worry too much especially since he had donations coming in. I think you are right. A lot of questions get repeated so many times it becomes overkill, thus the thread was going nowhere rather quickly.
I saw that the 3.2 SDK was released so Tiamat will do their thing, with Xoom Zone not far behind. For the one's who use this ROM, have faith in it.
Tiamat is my favorite, but Xoom Zone is a great ROM, it's worth a test run. The blue themed everything looks neat. Runs like a pro as well.

where is that page?
?
There are 7 ROM threads on this first page right below this thread...???
Seems to me there are more ROMs than ever, and most importantly, they're finally (for the most part) stable.
How many ROMs are needed for one tablet?

I agree. There are still a few here and they all are nice. However, half cant use hdmi. I currently use Thor's and i love the hell out of it. HDMI works, its smooth and comes with some really cool extras. i wont change from thors until mdeejay shows up with the icecream ver. then it will be a toss up cuz i think they both make the ROMs im comfortable with.
Dear 4D3,
there are:
7 ROMs on the first page
1 more on tegraowners.com
6 more on tabletroms.com ( + 1 for A200)
Total 14....not enough?
....and what does your question has to do with Android development?

Which ROM are you raving/referring to above? Integraowners.com has a buttload.
First of all, I'll only go to the website that keeps getting mentioned when it's finally designed to properly display on a tablet browser (any tablet browser). As it stands now the website is like one giant horizontal toolbar nightmare. I don't even like going there on my desktop PC browser. Sorry, I'm a long-time web designer, and badly designed sites are a pet peeve...
Second, if you keep posting that website name, this thread is going to be closed/deleted like all the others have. Anything to do with that dev's website gets whiffed because he won't release his kernel source. Basically, that dev's username and/or website is a thread kiss of death on XDA.
Which is a damn shame, as he's a very smart guy but his attitude to community development sucks.
As for his website.... Horizontal scrolling? Really? Ugh!

Agree and agree.
I really appreciate everything he's done for Iconia owners, but his attitude/stance makes it difficult to defend him.

After reading this I don't see where anyone is putting down his work so yeah I am sure they will still use his stuff they are knocking his sense of opensource... and his standpoint with it..

Yes, I will. I never said that I don't appreciate his work (except his website, which is horrible). Honestly though, if there was an alternative recovery available, I would be using it, but that would mostly be because I don't like CWM. I use Amon RA on my Evo 4G.
I'm a career network engineer, and for some reason the most gifted techies I've worked with have coincidentally been a$$holes. Maybe it's saying something about me that I still really liked every one of them...haha

Yes, they're called "prima donnas" , like most chefs, artists, etc.
If you've upgraded to his latest ver of CWM, you'll be hard pressed to find a better ver of CWM for any device.
I know the whole "but he doesn't release his source code" argument, but honestly I could care less if he does or not. I don't use his ROMs, but I do use CWM.
I guess I just don't get what all the fuss is about.
Either use his dev tools or don't, I just wish ppl would quit bringing it up and making a stink.
