Official Honeycomb 3.0 from Smartbook.de

hi,
i'm owner of the smartbook surfer 360 MN10U, same as advent vega (but has 3G / GPS).
on the homepage of smartbook.de they are advertising this tablet NOW availaible with android honeycomb 3.0
i' ll write them when first upgrades are possible....
hope this post is in right section - otherwise please remove in the right one...

They advertise is it for a week now, but there is unfortunately no download at the support site. I hope that is not only a VegaComb port. ;-)

I would say there is a very high chance that any Vega clone that officially has 3.0 will now have a VegaComb based rom.

I cant imagine they would get away with this in EU, China is different. There is no way that they will release a update that brakes flash either, it would cause havoc for the customer services.
The only way is if the company was about to got bust they might do it to sell a few more units before going out of buisness.
Saying all that i wouldn't be all that shocked if it did turn out that its vegacomb based.

lets just say (without expressing details) that certain vega clone companies have enquired about permission to use the rom

And when one thought it couldn't get funnier, it does...
I hope that the ones involved in the ROM's birth will be offered a slice of the pie and acknowledged greatly.

Hmmm...
Don't know if this is a good thing or not...
I hope that these 'certain vega clone companies' have access to previously unavailable sources and are willing to share these with our VegaComb heroes!
In other words:
I hope they can (and will) really contribute to the development of the VegaComb ROMs!
But nevertheless it's great they 'enquired about permission to use the ROM' instead of just stealing it...

Has any company been so devious as to steal a whole ROM???

yes a Chinese company selling a vega clone has stole the whole of VegaComb in its beta form.
However its hard to argue its steeling as there are no propriety files (that I am aware of), it would have still been nice of them to ask Newbe5 though.

Using a BETA ROM is a bit stupid of them isn't it? Customers buying that Clone Tablet could have potentials problems which that company won't be able to address.

Do you think that some semiunderground chinese company bother about customer's problems? You guys in Europe live in not material world They want your money - they get it - and in same second they get your money, they don't think about you anymore.
I'll still waiting for this ROM at least until google'll open source of android 3.0 and some wise guys make a brand new custon ROM for us all

ive been pestering smartbook for a while because they have allways advertised it as being honeycomb upgradable
they told me their update would be coming out in may so maby they have finally released it

Yesterday I wrote to viewsonic support about honeycomb update for viewpad 10s and they tell me that there is no google license for 1024*600 displays and noone can update advent vega or similar tablets to honeycomb and this is no more than rumors and lie.

very true?
their is alot of roumours about what google will and will not take. the one about no updates from 2.2 sounds the most odd
i think we need to get someone with a smart book or someone who can speek german to ring up

Google have made it quite clear that they are not limiting their OS to any hardware types, or stopping it from being put on certain spec devices. Android remains an open source project.
Honeycomb has not hit AOSP because google do not want idiot clone companies attempting to put the tablet OS onto phones and giving android a bad name.
They are in the process of building and nearing completion on their next OS (Ice Cream Sandwich) which is believed to act like Honeycomb when in landscape, i.e. tablets but act like a phone when in portrait. Once this OS is out it will hit AOSP then ALL devices can choose to use it if they wish.
As for GAPPS (Google Apps) that remains under licence from Google so they can control who gets it, but its pretty much comes down to cost rather than Google deciding a particular piece of kit is not good enough.

[ANDROID] APQ8x60 Gingerbread Souce code

https://docs.google.com/document/d/...31uj_LrKU8OG0/preview?hl=en_US&pli=1&sle=true
This started me thinking. Qualcomm wants and needs to be able to sell their processors and they are not blind to the fact that Android appears to be the OS of choice on Smart phones and tablets. So I did some looking around and I found out that there actually is one other device using the Qualcomm APQ8060. This device is not a consumer device--it is a special board designed for OEMs who want to use APQ8x60 series processors in their design. This device is called a DragonBoard and believe it or not Qualcomm has complete Android 2.3.3 (Gingerbread) source available for this device !!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
In addition, the DragonBoard and Touchpad share many components. The following chipsets/devices appear to be either compatible or identical on both the DragonBoard and Touchpad:
Main processor
Adreno video core
Power management ICs (PM8058, PM8901)
Sound chipset (Wolfson Microelectronics 8000 series)
WiFi and bluetooth chipsets (Both devices have Qualcomm/Atheros chipsets)
USB I/O chipset
This is HUGE news. This means that in theory, the driver support for the devices listed above should work out of the box using this reference build. It also:
Answers the question “Where did the Android build found on the Touchpad come from” ?
Gives us a full source GINGERBREAD reference build as a starting point. This could easily shave MONTHS off the time required to create a stable build.
build.prop from build 1
complete build folder here
Update: I am now working on a new custom kernel for the touchpad called KRYPTONITE. Check out the details HERE and HERE
I have pulled the latest GINGERBREAD source from the Aurora git hub and have built a very preliminary Android image, including:
Application boot-loader
flashed with the command:
fastboot flash aboot emmc_appsboot.mbn
Kernel
flashed with the command:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
System
flashed with the command:
fastboot flash system system.img.ext
Userdata
flashed with the command:
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img.ext
Persist(used for WIFI)
flashed with the command
fastboot flash persist persist.img.ext4
At this point I am simply waiting for my Touchpad to arrive, so I can test this.

Well done mate We are all behind you, it things like this that makes XDA great
JD

wow... keeping an eye on this~!
thanks~!

So with this image that you built will it work for dual boot. Or in this instance is it one or the other. I know there are a few teams working on dual boot. This seems very promising missing all the apps android has to offer. When do you get your touchpad??

While the Touchpad may be the first consumer device with the APQ8060, that doesn't mean that the APQ8060 isn't very similar to some other devices on the market. All of the Qualcomm 8000 series chips are very similar. Other devices currently on the market that have these chips include the HTC EVO 3D and HTC Sensation. The biggest difference between the chips in the EVO and Sensation are the inclusion of cell phone radios (GSM & CDMA). Most of the rest is identical including the graphics chip and (probably) the sound and WiFi chips.
Some of the developer teams have already succeeded in booting Android on the Touchpad. At this point, the hardest part is going to be getting a kernel that fully functions with Android. Any device that is publicly released with a Linux kernel must be released with publicly available source code. webOS, just like Android, uses a Linux kernel and thus the source code is readily available. It's mostly a matter of making an Android compatible kernel. We should already have working drivers for video, sound, WiFi, and Bluetooth - just a matter of hooking them all up correctly. I think the biggest hurdle now is getting the touchscreen driver hacked together to work with Android.
I've been trying to get a Touchpad into the hands of toastcfh. toastcfh is the CyanogenMod maintainer for the EVO 3D. He already has extensive experience with the Qualcomm 8000 series hardware. Given how far other developers have gotten, I almost consider Android on the Touchpad to be a foregone conclusion - it's only a matter of when, not if. toastcfh should be getting a Touchpad from a donor in another week or 2.

Pretty sure you can get a build built from Qualcomm's source here. http://www.villainrom.co.uk/Touchpad/rom/

That's a Rom, not source code. In the long run you want source code so that you can update it and make it better.

A donor as in someone to send him one to dev on and then he'll send it back after he works his magic? I'd love to have the first TP with Android on it! I got my 32gb TouchPad on Saturday. Contact me, as I'd be more than willing to send it to toast now and speed up the process for everyone by that week or two.

well i think only time will tell - what ya see now is initial enthusiasm and we may even see a port or two for popular devices soon but that's it . If Google brings in some gesture goodness to android with 5.0/klp or whatever its going to be called then we won't miss ubuntu . But as of now the aim of ubuntu ain't to become a viable alternative to other platforms so
et too brute !

I dont think we can call them "ports" Ubuntu announced direct support for android kernels meaning its already there I wonder if it'll be like installing Ubuntu on a windows machine but either way if any porting is involved it'll be way easier for the devs

My phone (HTC Incredible S 710 E) seems to have reached EOL with HTC post 4.04 ROM release. CM / AOSP development on the phone is very hesitant as most devs have moved on to other devices. I'd like to port canonical ubuntu onto this phone with some help from the canonical community. Anybody willing to provide assistance?
Dead cookies leave no trails...

I'd guess that Ubuntu and Linux desktop application developers would adapt their applications to "scale" down to the Phone UI, then scale up to desktop once docked.
It would give quite a unique seamless experience that cannot be offered elsewhere (Nor android, ios, windows).
And above all, an app market for this would make it possible for linux developers to finally get payed for their hard work.
Who knows, in some distant future - maybe even Adobe will finally launch it's apps on Linux... now that would be the day.

System Requirements for Ubuntu for Phones.

Was wondering if Ubuntu for Phone will work on my device or not so just startd to dig out more...
Found out it wont work, but then also check out the system Requirements and see if it works on yours....
Found this some where...
Canonical announced a couple of days ago a new operating system that would be available for smartphones, but they haven't really pointed out what devices will be able to run it.
If Canonical wants Ubuntu for smartphones to be widely adopted, they will have to make it clear which devices can run it.
The demonstrations were made with a Galaxy Nexus, which is an older phone. This gives us hope that the new OS will be able to run on most of the middle and high-end phones in production today.
Canonical announced that the new Ubuntu OS would be available in two kinds of phones, one at the entry level and the other one called “High-end superphone."
The hardware requirements are quite acceptable. The Entry level Ubuntu smartphone needs to have at least a 1Ghz Cortex A9 (single core as the bare minimum), 512MB or 1GB memory, a 4-8GB eMMC + SD for storage, and Multi-touch capability.
The high-end Ubuntu "superphone" is a little more demanding and will need at least Quad-core A9 or Intel Atom processors, minimum 1GB for memory, minimum 32GB eMMC + SD for storage, and Multi-touch.
The difference between the two models will consist in what Canonical calls “Desktop convergence.” With the help of a dock and a monitor, the high-end Ubuntu "superphone" can be turned into a thin client for Ubuntu.
“We’re shaping the future of personal computing. Ubuntu is proven on the desktop, and uniquely positioned to be at the heart of the next wave of consumer electronics, combining a beautiful hand-held touch interface with a full PC experience when docked,“ stated Mark Shuttleworth, founder of Ubuntu and VP Products at Canonical.
The new Ubuntu OS for smartphones seem to be exactly what the mobile market needs right now, and that is a new experience. Whether it will be successful or not depends on the companies that will want to adopt the OS and sell it with their devices.

What is your opinion on the likelihood they will support the Nexus 4? I know they are launching with initial support for the Galaxy Nexus, so I would think the Nexus 4 may be the 2nd.

The main reason why I bought Nexus 4 was to run Ubuntu ....but becoming aware that the Nexus 4 will not run as a Superphone
...that really sucks ...sold the Nexus 4 ....Gonna put the money back in for the GS4 when its out

How do you mean the Nexus 4 will not run as a "Superphone"?

You dudes can't read the requirements ....quad core /min 32gb storage ...sorry but Nexus 4 is not going to be an Ubuntu Superphone out of the box

Sorry dudes ...I am subscribed to 4 threads regarding Ubuntu ...dont pay attention to the Nexus 4 stuff :silly:

Lmao this thing is not clear those specs were found under the operators and OEMs section of canonicals website and may have absolutely nothing to do with the actual specs required for running ubuntu hence my earlier objection to the creation of a thread that states something that may or may not be the specs without specifying so when there are already to two threads created that do

I wish its like how you say my friend ..really !
...but the requirements follow exactly this 360 % turn the mobile industry has suddenly taken
Samsung has totally set the standard with the new Octa CPU / YOUM & increased Storage ....Samsung / YOUM series devices will follow the Ubuntu qualifications out of the box .....the storage limit is not going to change dude ....its simple math ..there is not enough space to store everything ....it needs to be 32 GB

The forum should follow the Ubuntu model/concept ...Ubuntu Phone OS & Ubuntu Superphone Device
---------- Post added at 01:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:54 AM ----------
The only OEM at the moment that still has EXT Storage is Samsung
LG.. Motorola ..Google ..Nokia ..cut it out !......does HTC still have ext storage ? ...or is it HTC does & Nokia doesn't ..I am confused ...lol
Its rediculous !

Leak shows Android KitKat Will Solve Android Update Issue

Just found on Neowin. Android 4.4 may help developers hugely to run Android on older handsets! We already heard Google will release Tegra2 Chipset's code at 4.4 launch. These report also indicate that. Finally, we may see fully working Android 4.4 for our beloved Atrix? :laugh:
Many people are excited about the upcoming Android Kit Kat update, but according to a recent leak, this new version may actually be
a major step forward both in terms of usability and capabilities for Google’s OS.
Amir Efrati, who has broken Google and Android news before, has apparently taken a look at some official inside documents concerning Android 4.4 KitKat. According to him this might be a radical update to Google’s platform not just an iterative one.

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Among the many new features and improvements that it’s supposed to bring, KitKat will supposedly finally deal with the fragmentation issue that has plagued the Android ecosystem ever since the OS first launched. This will come both in terms of support for the update and in integrated solutions that unify separate approaches from different OEMs. For example instead of Samsung, HTC, Moto and Sony each offering their own way to interact with an IR blaster, KitKat now brings an integrated solution that works on all handsets.
According to Efrati, KitKat has also been engineered to work on older and lower-end devices in a bid to bring them up to speed with newer and more powerful handsets. Memory management has also been improved, now allowing much more fluidity and responsiveness even in devices with only 512 MB RAM.
Speaking of those, KitKat also seems to be focused around new lower-end devices with many improvements designed to make Google and its OEMs more competitive in this field. After all, while the high-end markets seem saturated, developing markets are a huge and valuable battlefield for OEMs looking to sell more devices.
Other improvements are focused around Bluetooth and the addition of new sensors: geomagnetic rotation vector, step detection and step counters. These are definitely geared towards wearables, whether they’re Google Glass or upcoming smartwatches from OEMs or even completely new products that haven’t been announced yet. Whatever the case, Android is definitely gearing towards a wearable computing future.
Finally developers will supposedly be able to create applications that use “full-screen mode” which completely hides the navigation bar and lets the app shine from edge to edge. And alongside all these changes there may be some significant battery gains thanks to improvements in the KitKat update which should make many users quite happy.
Hopefully we won’t have to wait too long until Google decides to unveil KitKat to the world, and here’s hoping this info is accurate and the update does end up being a major one.

Sources for Tegra2 devices would be great. Where did you read that?

Isn't tegra nvidia property? How could Google give out source code for something they do not own?

Nvidia released source code for tegra, with android 3.0 on Xoom

Tegra 2 source code isn't already released?

Sorry then! I then might see Kitkat will include support for Tegra & Exynos SoC's support by default. The main purpose of the new kernel is to get hardware acceleration. Without HWA, we had pretty stable ROM. If Kitkat defaulty supports our Atrix's HWA, then Atrix may finally see fully working kernel! We need epinter on board to test things!

Thats a good sign....like how windows/linux by default supports most of the hardware drivers....if thats true then we can jus flash android 4.4 without much hassle...Yes i have read it some where can be easily ported to old devices..but no source is strong enough to blindly believe ..lets wait and see...

Interesting but we will still need a compliant kernel...

Surprised?

Obviously this is more about current and more likely future devices rather than revamping devices that have been EOL'd long ago. Even if the OS will run on the device, someone still has to do the work of porting it, which isn't easy when the last fully working official release for the device had drivers and settings obscured in closed source binaries.
