Android version names - Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)

I just learned the first version of android was called Astro. I always thought that it was simply android or alpha. After that was beta, but really it was called bender.
Could you imagine if android was named after cartoon characters.
Astro (jetsons)
Bender (futurama)
Catdog
Daria
Eyeore (whinnie the pooh)
Freddy (Scooby Doo)
Goku (Dragon Ball Z)
Heathcliff
Inspector Gadget
Johnny Quest
Krang (TMNT)
Lil (Rugrats)
Marge (Simpsons)
Naruto
Phil (Rugrats)
Quagmire (Family Guy)
Rocko
Sylvester
Topcat
Underdog
Veronica (Archie)
Wilma (Flintstones)
Xavier (X-Men
Yogi
Zuko (Avatar the Last Airbender

Um. What?

Hmmm.... I was pretty sure they didn't start naming until D, Donut.

Copyright issues.

The OP is simply theorizing what might have been based on the newfound knowledge that the initial versions were Astro and Bender. Not too difficult to figure out.

yeah forgot about the eclair, but my point was that the names mentioned in the OP completely strange and they make no sense.

BTW - The next version of android might be "Kandy Kane" instead of the expected "Key Lime Pie", because of the candycane clue found floating in the jellybean easter egg.
If this turns out to be the case, I'll have to get a red battery case for my white S3 to turn it into a red/white kandy cane theme.

Much better than Key Lime Pie.

Wow guys. The OP just made those up for a "what if" scenario. He wasn't citing actual names...rofl.

It seems that all that was 'confirmed' was that 'Ice Cream Sandwich' was going to be a code name... which we've known for quite a while. The post doesn't say whether it's going to be for a '2.4' or a '3.1', either.
Is this like honeycomb, for tablets only?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Kitsune I'm going to go out on a limb and say 2.4. Its what the link itself says anyways. :shrug:

It will probably be 2.4. Android 3.0 is tablet only software and since ice cream sandwich is going to be for phones, it only makes sense to keep going in the current sequence for phone updates.
The name ice cream "sandwich" is a huge hint to the fact that it is combining honeycomb features with gingerbread for a smartphone update.

Buggy Cupcake 1.5 ROM

Enyo said:
I finally found a cupcake 1.5 SDK And actually, it boots. I'm shocked.
Its slow as fu**. The launcher is so old (if anyone knew of the gray launcher that you have to slide up (it was ditched in 2.1))
Even though, its old, I'm still going to release it. Its a look in the past and play around. I used jts GPS fix kernel and yea, GPS does not work (well its on 1.5 so nothing works anyway, remember the G1)
Ill release it soon. Its fun, slow, market is so old (black and white old) and won't update to the newest market.
I know its not necessary, but I wanted to port all versions of android to the fascinate. Who needs new? Why not flash back in time 2 years ago, cupcake was the biggest hit and phones like the moment (that had a arm v6 processor) were treated like dual core phones we have today. The G1 Also was high end back then with its
"Fastest processor (456MHz) in a mobile phone"
-Engadget
Or the moment had the
"Fastest phone ever" -Sprints Slogan.

I keep seeing all these teenage girls with Droids now and they're like, "what's the bfd? iphone and android have like, the same apps?" I just wish all these new adopters could see this version of Android and the app selection. They'd really appreciate how far the platform has come. I'm still blown away by gingerbread and i had crazy high expectations for ICS and it still blew me away. I will probably flash this just for nostalgia's sake. Thanks enyo!

It's actually CM7 reworked to look exactly like iOS. They have a stand-alone launcher and apps, so most of the work would go into translating from Chinese.

Challenge accepted! Lol Cupcake on the Evo. Wonder how that would run being that the Evo specs are well above what's needed. I'm assuming, if someone is actually able to get it to boot cupcake, that it would run about as well as running Windows 95 on one of today's typical PC specs.
In regards to the toolbox and apps. Would the flash 11.x work on GB as well? I thought flash stopped at 10.x for GB and 11.x was for 4.x.x (ICS and up).

I think it does run on GB. When I flash a rom I flash this group of app along with it. It shows up in my apps when I boot up but I am not sure of the last time I used any flash on my phone. I usually use my pc for the Internet.
Op has some more info. I will be working on it more over the next few days. This will have apps, tweaks, and tricks. The apps are one part of the toolbox that will start showing up in our roms. They will also be included in a flashable zip for those who are not using our roms. The second part of the toolbox will be exclusive to our roms. It consists of modifications to the installer script that will put a copy of your recovery log into a folder on your sdcard. It will also do a md5sum of the rom you are installing and put that in the folder also.
Remember this is a work in progress so don't expect it to be finished over night.
Peace,
Love, and
Happiness
