ICS Nexus S 4G full working

Fully Stable ICS​I would just like to let you guys know (If you havent been in General Lately.) that some devs at Androidcentral are working on an ICS rom built from SDK
http://forums.androidcentral.com/sp...127806-read-only-memory-ics-sdk-port-wip.html
Flash this afterwards so you get Root, Proper fonts and lockscreen fixes.
Also, some goodies:
http://tylerwatt12.com/XDA/ics/gallery/
Build 1A below, current build is build 2B see forum for download link
New version
What works:
WiFi
SD Card
Touchscreen
Hardware Acceleration(most)
Camera (After first FC)
Home, search and back buttons (not menu button)
Headphone and ext spk. sound
3G Text, MMS
What doesn't:
(Some ICS lib's had to be replace with GB lib's. So it's not exactly a clone of the SDK build (still great work though)
NFC no worky
I'm being told Calls dont work
Tap to share
some ICS features are left out.
Ill explain things a bit better here:
With any android release (Not including Honeycomb) the software release goes as follows:
Android develops the Android Version
A PR is made on the subject usually including a new device that will run the software
Between the announcement and release of the phone the SDK is released for that new version of Android
A Dev takes apart the SDK version of the rom and starts porting things over.
SDK builds don't usually work as an every-day phone, just something to play around with.
Sometime after the phone is released Source Code for the Android Version is released in which dev's will be able to make awesome ROM's that work well
(Fastest source release to rom build is about 1 hour) So you can expect that after Source is released Dev's will get a working ROM within hours.
... Weeks/Months Later..
Samsung releases ROM's to Carriers for OTA Updates.
Correct me if i'm wrong in any part here guys

Hey, just wanted to clarify, the ROM is not built from source but ported from the released 4.0 SDK.

I read earlier that its a sdk port and not source code. Is there a quick explanation regarding the difference between the two.

Source code is just that, source. The actual source used to compile android. The android SDK is a tool released for emulators allowing you to emulate the os on your computer, for example. These ports are ported from that emulator while roms you see around here are built from source for your device.

looks like the thread may have been shut down, or maybe thats just my account on android central since i joined since the ICS port a few days ago?
please let me know if its just me or everyone.
thanks to beezy over there tho hes putting up some serious time n effort!

Back up and running but still with the 1 bravo verstion

I've used it and it's okay and a little fun. You'll quickly go back to whatever you were running before. But ROM or not, you'll want to have the official update if you own a Nexus device anyways.

As cool as these ports are, they'll never have full use out of them being a SDK. I wish the launch of IC was sooner as far as updating. Waiting until the 10th for the Galaxy Nexus to come out was a little bit of a wait. A week or two after it was announced would have been reasonable.

for those looking for news, he said he has the touch working and will be opsting an update soon that has working touch.
and for this first (and soon to be old) release, it still thinks its working as an emulator on a computer. thats why 2 fingers is clicking and one finger is just tracking kinda like a mouse.
and keep it to the NS4g tho for convo, other threads are popping up like crzy for phones.
thanks and hope i helped for the news =D

4.1 Source Code Released!

http://www.engadget.com/2012/07/09/android-4-1-jelly-bean-source-code-now-available/
I know it's frowned upon to ask, but how likely are we going to see a build for the Tab 2 in the future?
Not trying to be rude or demanding or anything, I know it takes developers time to release new builds, but I simply am so excited for the vsync and triple buffering utilization. Google is paving the way for mobile OS technology while Apple sits in the corner throwing up the same old OS with one or two "new" features. That being said... I can't wait for 4.1

A build will show up shortly I'd think. Granted, more stuff will be working in it if more people would test out and help fix my ICS AOSP build.

I'd help you test it out, but I have the 10" model

I will be rooting my tab and going on aosp roms soon when my tablet slows down a little. Love it on my phone, on my tablet that would be awesome.

I have files for everything but the P5100 setup. I'll test compile for the P3113 then for JB, and if it at least boots, I'll build for the other models that I have stuff for so everyone can join in on the party

With CM9 almost fully functional, it shouldn't be overly difficult to make it work with Jelly Bean. My first build didn't boot, but I think it's a kernel/driver issue. Hopefully I can get more time this weekend and next week to get it booting.

I'm more than happy to test. I'm rocking jb on my gnex and I love it. I have the 3113 model.

New features on JB

Im just curious to know what some of the new features on JB will be, and also what do you hope JB will bring?

Project butter is the main thing if I'm not mistaken. This is basically ICS but built much, much better in terms of code, fluidness, and speed. Correct me if I'm wrong. There are a few other nice additions but nothing major. Things like expandable notifications, new lockscreen animation, ect.
Sent from my SPH-D700 CM9 4.0.4

Something I've been wondering, if any devs working on the JB port can comment, is to what degree the effects of Project Butter actually show up on our Epics? Is it a significantly noticeable difference or do our hardware limitations still show up markedly?

Well on the half/not-working non source port, it ran pretty damn smooth, noticeably so. Other than that, when it comes along I think it'd be better for people to try it themselves.

You can now stream music through the usb port. This should allow for some sweet docking stations.

Will this give us the possibility of watching a video and texting at the same time? I keep seeing the s3 commercial where it does that and I wanna know what the deal is? Is that JB or just an app?

That's probably just an APP/framework. The GS3 comes with ICS, from retailers at least.

I'm posting from JB on my xoom from teamEOS. Since it's on this device, hopefully it's not too long for cm10. Until viperx came onto HTC One X, I had all 3 of my Android devices running cm9. Now it's spread, cm9 was on xoom until JBs installation today, slimICS on SGS and of course viperx on HTC One X. My wife won't let me root her phones (that sounds so wrong as at least use Aussies use the term root as slang for sex.

I agree with you about the ETAs, but I think you misunderstood this circumstance... He is not asking the developers, he is asking everyone in this thread. It can't really be called an ETA, because estimations require some knowledge of the activity behind the scenes (somewhat like an educated guess) - if anything, he is asking for a WSTA - a Wild Speculation of Time of Arrival
With that said, there is even less point in asking for that than for an ETA, because all of our answers are unfounded guesses - but at least he isn't directly bothering the developers (they don't have any obligation to respond in this thread, so it's their choice if they're bothered by it, unlike in their threads)

MIUI ROM

Throwing it out there as I have the time to pursue but not the hardware - anyone willing to part with a p3113?, I'd like to port over MIUI for the Tab2. If anyone is interested PM me.

For the love of Google, someone get this guy a P3113. Or donate so he can get one! I'll throw a few bones your way Tuesday/Wednesday.
Anyone else interested in MIUI for our tabs? If 25 of us just do $10, this guy, might just deliver something awesome.
Can, you provide us with a little more info on your dev skills; can you handle such a task? Also, a donate button, or paypal link would help your cause, getting donations.
Sent from my GT-P3113 using XDA Premium HD app

Hah' thanks for the plug. In theory this would be my first full blown rom. Ive always done the testing, never the up front work. I've gotten my tab to the point where I don't even care if JB gets ported to it. Everything works, its stable, snappy, and makes no sense to mess with it.
As for my Atrix4G...that ****s taken a beating and MIUI was my choice. There where too many minor bugs and since I want a phone that works full time, I stopped messing with that and went back to Jokers latest. Searching around I can't find anything for a 3113 and MIUI. In short, if I had something else to fart around with and get it to the point where it works as well as what I'm writing you with...I'd love to share, maintain, etc. Paying for the shorties education, sports, etc comes first...hah. took the honest approach with this one.

MIUI on the Atrix was outstanding - video cam and a few other minor issues is the only thing holding me back there. I could see the potential on a gt2 esp with a kernel mod... who knows, it's just a thought! polska dobra!

Sorry man but if you want a tab 2 then buy one. They're cheap.
Miui would be cool but it wouldn't be hard for any decent developer to port. Plus with the popularity of this tablet miui will come, just a matter of time.

i hear you - hoping some decent developer forgets to work on their nexus, xoom, kindle and picks up a tab2 instead... and gets the IR to work properly

Its CPU is very similar, and the GPU is the exact same.
Also this might be worth checking out aswell

I'm wouldn't dare touch the title of RecDev... but I'm interested in getting into it. I'm Gonna poke around in this... seems like everything to make this happen is sitting right there on the table so to speak.

And let's not forget that if it works on the 7.0 it can be ported to the 10.1 with less effort...

BTW, you might be interested in this thread.

Ubuntu for Tablets Anounced

The folk at Ubuntu has announced Ubuntu for Tablets.
The moment this thing is installable on our Tabs mine is getting the treatment.

I just spotted this on Google+, it looks fantastic.

I really hope this gets ported to us!!!!!!
Sent from my Galaxy Jelly Tab 10.1

Can´t wait for this to happen !
I´ve been using ubuntu for years on small netbooks and laptops, if they get it to work properly on our "tabs" then it would become a serious alternative to android ! :good:

This looks SWEET!!!

I'm curious when exactly we're going to get a download option to get this going.
Sent from my merp merp

Maybe after MWC which is the 25th of this month... Check out www.ubuntu.com is where I see that.
I would love to see this on our Tab, but considering the low-end requirements...

I don't mean to be a buzzkill, but this will probably never see the light of day on our tabs. We do have a Desktop Ubuntu ARM port, and a fully working Linux kernel for other OSes but even with everything in front of us, I doubt it will happen.

I think the only way we could get it is if someone takes the source code and probably do some crazy mods to it to get it to it to make it work for our tabs.
I am quite the optimist so here's to hoping!

They will publish a porting guide in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Porting, so there is a lot of hope!
Sent from my amazing 10.1 galaxy tab

It all looks good and sounds nice, but I don't see it becoming big.
I think Android will evolve together with Chrome OS into a really good OS.
For sure I want to try out ubuntu on my 10.1 tablet, but it will never get a big userbase. (just my oppinion

Looks pretty easy. I will do it today. Finally something interesting besides cm for tablets. Most ROMs are either cm clones or simply not tablet friendly, which is why I haven't worked on much here.

Not really. If the device supports CM 10.1 (which it does), then it supports Ubuntu. Canonical even posted a full guide. Problem is, who's going to do it?
Edit: Okay, I guess we do have someone to do it. So there's hope

Sorry. I've been trying, but it hasn't been syncing. I'll try on my build server when i get a chance. Hopefully by this weekend, I will have a chance. Not sure why the sources won't download locally but my server should have no issue.
