[Q] So... Custom rom 2.3 ? ;)

Hi all,
as you know today Google announced Android 2.3.
So, I'm just asking if someone on the forum plan to build some AOSP 2.3 custom rom
(I'd love to do this, but I really don't know how to... Jerpelea or zdzihu, some advice for noob ? )
EDIT : found this post, looks nice http://theunlockr.com/2010/03/26/ho...om-for-android-part-1-setting-up-the-kitchen/
I'm gonna give it a try

I think you might struggle to get past step 1..
I. Before You Begin
1. This ONLY works for HTC Android devices at the moment, later versions might support others (check here for an update when it does).

Not sure it should be a problem. The tutorial is a little start as you can't find any cool tutorial... especially x10
Except http://blog.coralic.nl/2010/01/21/how-to-create-a-custom-rom-for-hero-from-android-sources/

yea please developers .... the x10 will be AWESOME and i don't have to change it later.

Ok, I'm getting Android sources, I don't know at all if I'll be able to do something, that's worth a try anyway

@ zdzihu
As soon as we can confirm that Gingerbread works with 2.6.29 kernel, we will switch to the latest version. It's still +-10 days till official release of 2.3

The sources for Gingerbread ARE NOT RELEASED - we CAN'T work on 2.3 yet.
Please check AOSP Rom thread for 2.3 PREVIEW rom

working well with the recovery menu - i was able to wipe and then install the 2.3 ROM.
driver support is none existant (as Z said in his post on that thread) but you can at least have a look around and check it all out. Animations seem very smooth all things considered - hopefully 2.3 will not be far off for a real release for our beloved X10
btw - adb is active on the 2.3 ROM also, i was able to push a few apk's to it with no issue at all. Didnt try pulling anything, but assume it would work fine.
and yes, i was able to restore my 2.1 backup with no issues when i had finished playing

dude, did you read Zdzihu's post at all? he has released a preview ROM in his other thread. you can load it using his recovery menu. as i said, i installed a few things via ADB (which included shootme for screens) but was unable to access the sdcard
want more proof? im not spamming, and Zdzihu is the X10 god, so he is telling truth too.
EDIT: am reflashing now, will get another camera to take shots....

screens as requested

very nice indeed which post did he posted it in? If you don't mind

sorry, i should have linked. ill go find it now, it was about page 403 on the AOSP thread that he and Jerpelea are working on.

zdzihu said:
Hi guys,
Here's Gingerbread 2.3 PREVIEW rom. It is not one of our roms - THIS IS SDK DUMP - SLOW AND WITHOUT ANY HARDWARE SUPPORT - hence we do not support it!
It is only for those who can't run 2.3 on emulator but still want to see Gingerbread in action. For me, it's just a proof of concept that it will work with 2.6.29 kernel.
Again, THIS IS NOT AN AOSP ROM RELEASE! It's just something to play with in a spare time
Installation: Boot into xRecovery -> install custom zip -> select X10-2.3-preview-signed.zip
Please do a full wipe before installation!

It's ok, I found it Thanks though, will try it out later

just doing an "adb pull /" from the 2.3 ROM now if anyone is interested....

I was getting ready to post that the emulator for Android 2.3 is indeed running on a 2.6.x.29 kernel. But I see its already booted on an X10 nice.

On the epic 4g touch forums, I got a new phone not long ago. I've been doing a little development on there, haven't posted anything yet (been developing for myself for now, to practice.) Maybe I will stop through here n try my hand at rom building, I have a rom I want to try to make. I haven't been using my tab as much since I got this phone (its got a 4.5 in. screen!!!) And since I broke the glass on my Iconia. Still works fine, but lately I've just been using my Iconia for Netflix while I use my phone. I want to do something a little extreme, namely get touchwiz running on the Iconia (not a port of the whole rom, just tw)

Not sure of what you're asking?
Are you asking if his kernel will work with this ROM?

yes I am. Sorry if it's a noob question, but I am a noob to flashing roms. I like the looks of your rom and really want to get back to an acer based system so I don't have to guess what works with my tablet and what doesn't.

Not a n00b question, but it has already been answered in the OP in bright red letters.
"If you want to flash another kernel with this ROM, you do so at your own risk. I have no idea who's kernel will work with this ROM."
If you flash this ROM according to the directions in the OP, you'll be fine though

I9100XXKP2 Ice Cream Sandwich + Download Link + Second Leak

Here it is again folks ICS I9100XXKP2 by SamMobiles.
Wednesday we presented you with the first beta release today the second firmware for the Galaxy S II.
This rom still a CUSTOM build by Samsung and still with TW.
Samsung created this firmware on December 8 2011.
As you all may know we only offer stock ROMs so you will not find this firmware on our usual firmware page.
This rom is a bit faster but still with a lot of bugs.
HowTo flash.

Happy Flashing!

It is sad that Android moved to 4.0.3 and Samsung still could not get to 4.0.1 stable
This rom is just only faster, still buggy. Do not install it on your daily phone...

Gonna flash it this time and see how it is
Hope it can be useful to CM9, i don't care about Samsung's roms

i mean codeworkx said for a some days he has this firmware too and there can´t help to build our cm9

Its still in testing, remember that. They still need to incorperate TW into the stock framework. At least were getting official ICS builds unlike any other phones.

3 threads on XXKP2 already. man people are really eager for ICS

yea men ics make people crazy in there brain XD

I've only ever flashed 1 ICS beta and that was a few weeks ago,i love the look of it but personally im not gonna waste my time flashing any more beta / alpha builds until such time a stable ROM you can use every day is released, no point really when you know there are going to be bugs.

I know! Crazy - Timestamp people!
Anyways - glad to see it's getting out there (even though it's just a traffic generator - no other reason to spread them out) but glad to get them anyways! I know it's still "not so good" of a leak but still worth a shot

People's attitude around here is really starting to get on my nerves, it feels like everyone here are 12 years old.
Has any other big company released a stable ICS rom for their phones? No. As far as I know, the only other company that released anything is Sony Ericsson, and THEY only released a half working alpha build for developers only.
Everyone needs to go care about something else for a little while and stop acting like spoiled children.

This lol
I remembered when I first got my tab (in short, I traded a laptop, Xbox 360, and games used for a brand new SGT). First thing I did was rooted it via some app. Then I proceeded to install busybox for some reason, then thought "meh I feel like going back to stock" so I just uninstalled busybox (ignoring whatever message it said about not uninstalling it).
Tab didn't reboot, then I panicked and tried flashing something with Odin (not sure what it was, but I ended up trying to fill all the boxes in Odin with some files and then flashing). It failed
Eventually, I then just gave up trying to keep stock and went with Overcome
So I'm pretty lucky to still have my tab lol...
Nowadays, I find it easy to try out different ROM's (I always just restock according to Overcome's GB guide, then proceed to flash a custom ROM and Kernel)
I'd recommend spending some time on Froyo stock for a bit, then eventually trying to update to either stock Gingerbread, or another stable Gingerbread ROM (such as Overcome or Hyperdroid). Then do a bit of research and then try to go to ICS.
Just be careful on what your flashing, always double-check things, and check out people's feedback

I believe the roger's tab uses the GT-P1000 kernel but I'm not sure...do a quick search or ask the guys here.
Oh and btw, HumberOS build is quite outdated compared to the releases from Slim's build which can be found here. This ROM .zip already comes with kernel so it should work just fine on your tab I guess? And don't forget to flash gapps after ROM, but I guess that's pretty obvious judging from the other devices you messed with lol

Welcome!
Just a quick note on flashing the tab. As you already noticed, you should get on Gingerbread bootloaders first. The rest is up to you, all current ROMs for our Tab can be flashed on top of them. Seeing you got over the softbrick with Overcome, you should be home free already.
PS: also make sure your tab is charged at more than 10% before you start flashing or you might not be able to get into recovery or download mode. It may look like a softbrick, but you just need to let it charge...
Peace and happy flashing!

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 ...
