[Dev] htc puccini (jetstream) dump

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=ZYBZL0ZP
Found this on the flyer forum. Different hardware but may be possible to port parts or all if it to iconia.

could be a hard port since its not tegra...

I know. Should be possible though. Just tricky. Since its a sense version of hc the first big obstacle will be modifying asop ramdisk to work with it since sense ramdisk usually has a lot of modifications.

we have a thrive rom, a galaxy rom, why not have a sense rom

I like HTC,I like sense!

Sense cant be ported... period.
Try it... research it... do what ever.. u wont find a single non sense based device running sense.
Sense is htc's own magic and its not a port... its more like its own version of android very very specific to each device.
Its been tried a million times and it doesnt work

Are you serious? Sense HAS been ported to non-sense devices and will continue to be ported. Even my Acer Liquid E has sense ported to it...
Learn to Google a little better.

+1 for this. I had sense port on my SGS
I really want to see sense on my acer.

+1 I believe that even Nexus One had Sense ported to it.

I can't wait til we get a Sony Tablet P dump, same specs and having playstation suite on the Iconia would be sweet

Nothing like pessimism to clog up a forum.
How 'bout this, if you don't have anything development related, or at least praise or something, keep quiet.

Im going to have to agree here.. Sense was even at one time ported to the OG Droid. Ran it on mine for several months before I got a Thunderbolt.

Just so you know droid was not the og. The tmobile g1 google phone was. Thanks come again

you are correct, but looking into the future, right? as only Tegra3 devices will have NEON support which htc roms use, and our tablet do not have.
so yes, but in a future nvidia tablet not a500. or just the new toshiba qualcomm based tablet, that should work fine too.

The NEON instruction set has been around since the Cortex A8. But yes, the Iconia's chip lacks the NEON instructions. That problem aside, I'm fairly confident based on what I've seen of the Sense 3 ports to devices they were never meant for, that this can ( and hopefully will ) be done.

@timtucker
i fully agree.. i seen sense3 on qualcomm devices too but again, you request it for Tegra devices, totally different specs.
Unless someone can rewrite drivers, which is not normally seen in any port done, and make the needed framework change, it will not happen.
again, the new Toshiba AT200 device is qualcomm based, its very compatible, but tegra2 is a league of its own,for better and for worse..
If you got a non-qualcomm device with sense, provide a link at lets see how good a port they did, if it exists. Could be just a clock they ported but a complete framework with compiled library support does not exist unless you look at qualcomm based similar hardware specifications.

Acer liquid, Nexus 1 & Galaxy s 1 all had sense ported. But only the samsung had a different chipset.
Good luck devs

It's not about running it better than ICS, it's about game compatibility with the touchpads and the overall gaming experience compared to Gingerbread.
Hence why they didn't update to ICS in the first place, It's extremely unlikely that we will get Jelly Bean or anything else as a matter of fact tbh. The only way we can get Jelly Bean is by porting but gaming will always be a problem with roms from ICS onwards.

Don't waste your breath. There are tons of threads started about ICS and people try telling them that it has to do with the gaming aspect, not the specs. They won't listen.

I agree that there's so many useless threads which have been created over and over again with people moaning even though its for their own good. Then they wonder why the get insulted and called noobs etc.
Plus some people on this forum are so ungrateful to what we devs give to them and just always complain, You can never win with some people hence why I stopped developing my ICS Rom further with constant posts saying touchpads aren't working blahblah..

Yeah, I would agree with your point, ICS performance-wise is no doubt far better than Gingerbread (not to mention Jelly Bean), but I don't see it in the last ICS Beta on my Xperia Play ... the reason being ... may be lack of good driver support, if there's no official driver support, and Sony just expect hack work from the XDA community can resolve this issue they are too cheap-skate ... no offends, I think the open-source initiative is pure good, but official support is crucial too ...

[Discussion Thread] Android 4.3

As you may know or not there was a found leak yesterday of REAL android 4.3 for the Samsung Galaxy S4 I-9505.
Well how does this relate to us?
Well we all are interested to see the difference in the system.
I thought it would be a good idea to keep a discussion thread just in case someone brings it up and people go off topic.
Some quick info on the firmware:
- A lot of backdoor additions such as the new norm of Low Power Bluetooth support.
- This version is NOT KEY LIME PIE.
- This version has almost no UI changes, but noticeable changes include settings access method in the camera e.t.c
- Some apps have Android 4.3 and even the modem name attached into the description when accessing app info.
- Known to increase benchmark scores by approximately 1800 in Antutu.
- Has a SeLinux button at bottom of About Phone in Settings.

Even if the performance on Android 4.3 would be better, we would sadly never get it to a state on the Xperia Play so that it can be used as a daily driver. We're not even able to get wifi working on android 4.2!

I don't think anything above 4.1 is worth working on.

for someone that doesnt use phone for gaming even android 10 will be good on xperia play

What about performance?

great
It will be great if we can have a 4.3 roms for XPlay but i think that will kill the gaming performance of the device!!

It is rumored that Android 5.0 will run better on low-end phones than Jelly Bean did.

If you mix this rumor with the other rumor that Motorola has some secret new low-spec'd phones coming out, there may be some truth to it. I certainly hope so.

Personally I believe our phone is good enough to run JB. I don't see why it couldn't run Android 5.0 well.
JB performance is impressive and a lot of people don't understand RAM Consumption to a full extent on Android.
I think even 4.2.2 won't do the play any bad.

KitKat is all fine and dandy but without, I am sure, additional sources released by Sony (Ericsson) we will probably never get a JB kernel working and still retain full Xperia PLAY compatibility... then again I may be completely wrong and if I am someone correct me. I have stayed pretty much on GB for gaming. Either way, thanks for sharing... although I think this should go to the General forum.... anyways... thread on.

google says that they made the OS smaller and after so old devices that didn't get in the past update can now get update because they resolve many issues.

True but they also stated those will need to be updated by either the carrier or the manufacturer of the device(s). As $ony long ago gave up on the PLAY, I think its incredibly unlikely we will see any support form Sony and or even source releases.
Still, it would be awesome if we can get it up and running, but dont forget the highest kernel we can sort of get working, is kernel 3.4.
Kitkat would be an even higher kernel number.

Google isn't even releasing KitKat for the Galaxy Nexus. Sony isn't going to do it either, and it would need hardware drivers from Qualcomm side too.
Why is this thread in the dev section?

is that true?

Sorry for wrong section... Anyway to delete? On another note, dony and erricson broke up so i dunno if they would be wanting to support our 2011 devices. All we can do id hope a dev/sony has the power to bring us 4.4...

Nice Information

I think if the 3.4 Kernel is working it wont be difficult to get kitkat running. But as far there is no touch in 3.4

They abandoned it,yes.As far as i know,there are no new models build and everything that is floating around in shops are the last produced batches,not getting the update to Android 4 kinda sealed this assumption

I don't know if the X Play will ever get KitKat but Google introduced a new runtime called ART to replace Dalvik with KitKat, on my Nexus 4 it really improve the performance to a substantial amount, so maybe that will help as well.

Would be great if Sony would pay more attention to their old phones, specially because they cancelled the ics update so sudden.
But i don´t think this will happen.

And that's one reason I won't buy Sony again.

we will get 4.4, not official but we will get it.
once i got a play i will work on it, otherwise we will have an other dev.

so? is there anyone working on kitkat roms for xPlay? or its abandoned at all?

By the looks of it, KitKat is out of reach for our device, theres barely any 4.1 or 4.2 jellybean roms functioning, what makes you think we will get 4.4 any time soon? Our Play is best optimised for GB due to performance issues as ICS+ isn't 100% functional on our play. Don't believe me? try any ics rom out and sooner or later you will find out that games will lag and memory will tend to be low. Sorry but this is the bottom line for our xperia play.

Legacyxperia (mostly mike) is working to get gully working 3.4 kernel. Than we wpuld be able to boot kitkat.

It is indeed possible, and I am saying this because I have NEO L(same as xplay) and I ran kitkat on my phone, thanks to @Mike's hard work. He reached at a point now where touch is working, he just need to have Wifi,Camera and some other things work and it will be there

Testing Firefox OS in Xperia SP

So, this is a great new !!
http://fxpblog.co/firefoxos/testing-firefox-os-on-sony-xperia-sp/

I had one question always.
Can we xsp users multi boot?

great ! firefox on sp wow

No, it's a side project so it doesn't get much time. Release won't be for several weeks. The issues are not only on the side of device porting but also on the side of Mozilla. It is still under active development, unlike Android which is only released when it is complete.

Yeah, but of we get Ubuntu, it'd better right? But alas, no dev to port it for xsp. Same is for Firefox. As @Levered said it'll take a lot of time to get updates from the op if it gets ported

I'm curious, what are you guys 'eager' to see this?
The reason for no release is due to camera. From what I can tell the camera blobs depend on some Android specific parts which will never be part of FxOS (of course).
Unless this is solved then I will probably not release this for Xperia SP as nobody will use it without a functioning camera.
I'm considering getting Xperia E1 to continue this project as this hardware is better supported in FxOS and it also looks like the camera blobs do not have this limitation.

You caused it lol by posting this and showing a video everyone got all excited also you could just release non working build like many devs do with their custom ROMs: on some phones the phone might never have working wi-fi on custom ROMs (desire c fixed after about a year of tinkering) or if you check out the HTC one x custom ROMs they have a lot of stuff broken too!

No way, missing camera (and bluetooth) are missing features too big to warrant a release.
Besides, would anyone really permanently switch from Android to FxOS on Xperia SP if I fixed these two issues and released it? I'd bet money on it that people would use it for a couple of hours maximum, then realize they need the Google services that push all notifications to the phone.
(FxOS doesn't have push notifications for most things, pretty much everything has to be reloaded / refreshed manually, even syncing contact data.)

tested on older device..
I have already tested Firefox OS on my older Xperia E Dual device.. it kinda sucked.. I didn't like the way it felt and it was laggy and super slow.. maybe it is better here in XSP
