What's wrong with the ICS leak combo'd with the 3.1.10 kernel? Do we still need a petition?

I don't get the point of this thread either. He's talking about an ancient petition from back when we were trying to nudge Moto, now things have changed drastically and this petition is now completely obsolete, so why even bother bringing this up? Doesn't make any sense...

Exactly. I mean Moto did assist with the kernel development and officially/unofficially leaked the ICS build to us. Outside of HDMI support, the ICS Blur based ROMs are generally operating at normal level. Sure there's the usual bugs, but they're getting better.

Plus I'm pretty sure that what our xda devs have already built far exceed Motorola's unfinished ICS update.

Signed!

Lovely let's get this moving

I don't really think it's useful.
What Motorola can do ? The Atrix 4G is not anymore in their website.. (since google got motorola).
They don't have any stable ICS version, they already gave us what they did and i don't really think they continue to work on that...
The only thing what could help would be somme ex-employe from Motorola coming here to help us !

motorola
Motorola doesnt care us

I dont think this petition gone any further..we can assume it had little success of making motorola release the unfinished ICS and little help in making the kernal...

Exactly. And the petition didn't help with the release of the ICS leak or with the development of the kernel. It took our devs to ask and work with Moto to be able to get us where we are now. Why ask for something we already have, even if its a public developer made version and not a Moto developer version? Why ask for something that is outdated? ICS is great, don't get me wrong, but JB rev 1, 2, and soon 3 are the current up to date projects. Plus we have KitKat which was just announced and that will greatly put GB and ICS in the past.

Do YOU think I deserve a recognised developer status?

Right, after making an ICS port to the wildfire and my darkforestROM, as well as three kernels and a few apps, xda haven't accepted my developer request.
Before I get the ranting it takes them long to do it, I put it in last week, and the backlog cant be that bad.
If they don't see me as a developer, then fine, but that doesn't mean everyone won't.
Probably because I have only been on this forum two weeks, but who should judge what time you have to wait to be a developer?

It is my understanding that there is a couple weeks lag time in the process, and they do them in batches. I wouldn't be surprised if the process were slowed a bit by the holiday season, as well. Just be patient.
I agree with everyone. You SHOULD be seen as a developer. Loving the tweaks app and the CDMA Kernel. Plus just all the help and feedback you have provided. You have been here two weeks but I have yet to see a thread that doesn't have your feedback in it. You have been very helpful to many here myself included, and I thank you for that. You will get recognition that I am sure of.

Seeing how you developed an app that i use on my phone i certainly would say so.

I disagree, I believe you should be a member of the forums for 184 days before they even allow you to apply for dev status.
Pfft! KieranFTW don't even bother listening to Dudeness83 he doesn't recognize the skills. I agree you should have dev status you've brought us a sweet rom, kernel, and awesome tweaks all in a short period of time! And your fast to reply to any kind of problems that users run into

I understand that you're a bit miffed, but... Give it some time. The recognized developer thing implies that you're recognized by the XDA people too... And with two weeks, it may be a bit too soon. I am a forum moderator and previous admin, I know I can't assess people in a couple of Weeks.

The recognised developer system has nothing to do with if XDA considers you a compitant developer. It's more like a mark of achevement. Just keep going, keep working hard and you will get there. It takes time though. Look at the top devs like Leedroid, he has like 10 rom and kernel threads on the go at once.

LoL at that.
As soon as ICS comes out officially on the wildfire, I will be getting a good system dump and removing bloat, as well as adding tweaks.
Will call it Darkforest ROM 4.0 ICS
Having few custom roms here is a good one, gives me plenty of space to make more

Why no AOSP roms yet?

We have the kernel source and aosp source for ICS (not JB)(obviously) so why hasn't anyone made an aosp Rom? It seems even other devices get AOSP roms a lot faster. Is there a problem with porting AOSP to the S3 phones in general (US VERSIONS) or does no dev really care for AOSP and is happy with TouchWiz? I don't know, and I'm just curious. Just to be clear, I'm not asking any devs to get on it or work on it or rush it, just pure curiosity. Thanks. Hoping some devs could reply to clear some things up.

Yeah I get that it's running touchwiz which is like you said basically a 0% true android experience but wouldn't you just be able to delete the touchwiz all together and flash a new Rom. I'm not exactly sure what the problems are that are stopping devs from just installing a Rom onto it after removing touchwiz. I can wait I was just asking out of curiosity lol.

You can't do that without achieving AOSP. ICS AOSP is helpful, but everyone wants JB.
The JB AOSP source code isn't out and when it is, the closed-source RIL is the biggest obstacle to making it work.

You can't have AOSP ROMS without the AndroidOpenSource for 4.1, which isn't out for 2 more weeks. And for 4.0, the devs still need time.
someone else mentioned that a lot of the devs might have held out for the 32gb models which were hard to come by opening week. the 16gb versions came out first. anyway, there are a lot of great devs on board, and not just historically samsung devs. htc devs like myn will be pumping out roms soon enough.
i won't lie though... some jellybean love would be beautiful.

Yeah, I hope by the time the SGS4 rolls around in a year that 32GB will be the new low-end, with 64GB the step up. I really hope we don't stagnate here -- or worse: go backwards -- just because of this cloud crap.
My guess would be that most of the devs have the international version. They have had AOSP roms for weeks. Not to mention cm9, aokp, and about to get miui4
My guess would be that the phone is just getting released in the US and maybe the devs are waiting for 4.1 source so we can have a Jelly Bean AOSP rom instead of spending so much time to create an ICS AOSP. That doesn't make much sense to me, why waste time on ICS when JB is coming out in couple of weeks.
Can't most efforts on ICS apply to JB, or do things like project butter really change up the porting?
I imagine Google Play on stock/root or CM9 would be a lower-hanging fruit.

I believe it was said that jb code is very similar to ics. Cm9 is very close for us. A stable cm9 to cm10 would probably be faster than cm10 built from scratch. Just a guess though, I'm not a dev.

Joke? don't underestimate the developers on THIS phone, of all phones ) I'm gonna definatelly keep an eye on these forums. if nothing else i expect someone starting a WIP thread, an AOSP built rom, most likely not fully functional ofcourse, but compiled enough to boot up, just to give us a taste while development begins in earnest
This is just what was needed to jump-start development for the SIII
I'm curious, with Verizon's S3 flashing abilities currently being limited to roms stripped of kernels, how will this affect a jellybean rom? Is the ics kernel the same as the jb kernel?
Just rambling here, no disrespect intended and none meant at all just want to learn as much as possible....ICS source has been available the whole time, why wouldn't we have seen a CM9 build if it were that simple (as to have source)? Just cause source for 4.1 is out, it is going to make it that much easier to build an AOSP rom now? Again just trying to learn I know people are pretty snappy at questions like these, lol.

Reason people are saying that we could see CM10 soon is because the CM team think the code should be able to merge right into what they have with CM9, and not break that many things. With CM7 to CM9, they had to basically do everything from the ground up again because ICS was such a huge update over GB. Now JB isn't that big of an upgrade over ICS, in a way it is, but in a way it isn't. Sorry if that sounds confusing.

I am no dev, but heres how i understand it works;
we start with an announcement of an OS, this is done generally at Google I/O or a Nexus Event, in this case was Google I/O.
On the announcement day, devs receive the SDK; Software Development Kit.
This is released to allow the devs to begin making apps that match and run on the new OS. However, aspiring rom devs then begin to build a rom off the released SDK, generally called an sdk port.
These tend to be made simply to give us an idea of how the system would work and function, and generally might boot up and have a couple working things, but major things tend not to function because the SDK is not made for that.
Then comes the Source code, this is the real deal, it is full code of the system, code that can then be compiled to produce a fully working system, or nearly fully working. Only thing that remains missing is proprietary drivers and such, these tend to be the things specific to each phone, files that would make particular chips work, particular functions, the specific phone kernel, etc. but once you have the source code, you're over 80% done as far as having the resources needed to develop a full rom. at this stage, some devs can produce a fully working, stellar rom, but it will take quite a bit more work than devs who choose to wait for the final stage
Then comes the OTA. this is where all the device-specific stuff comes to the devices, and devs have the absolute and complete freedom to produce a fully working, better than stock, experience. This is where roms flood the dev forums.
So as far as not having AOSP yet, and now this is our chance at AOSP? No, thats not why we dont have AOSP. we dont have it cause no one built it yet; the Touchwiz UX is sooo integrated in the system that untangling and taking it all out is a long and drawn out process, and theyd need to deconstruct what we currently have, take out elements of touchwiz until its all clean, all the while making sure it doesnt break anything else.
but getting the jellybean source code propels devs because now this is a new OS, a new AOSP with its own new interesting properties. and because Jelly bean is a small update compared to ICS, now that we have source code, many of the device specific stuff wont be broken by implementing jellybean code into it, therefore building a Jellybean rom is a faster path to AOSP than untangling the current ICS for Galaxy S III
Does that make sense?

AOSP in this case is talking about the actual Android Open Source Project. so it is a bunch of code. so why are we excited? we've had ICS AOSP code for nearly a year now, what we dont have is AOSP roms. building an ICS AOSP rom is much harder than building a JB Rom, and we currently have icecream sandwich on the SIII even if its touchwized, and undoing touchwiz is quite a bit of work. but Jellybean...Oh Jellybean, now we got the source, we will start getting that baby soon and it'll boost dev on these devices. make sense?

Not sure if you were trying to come off rude or not, but people are excited because its the newest update, duh. Reason being we don't have 4.0 AOSP is because the phone hasn't been out that long for the US carriers.

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.

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)

Well, I've heard rumors of within a month. But again, they only "just" got their hands on the source. And I heard xbox saying we're waiting on some proprietary files to be released from the Nexus S that we'll need yet.

[Petition] We want ICS drivers

Hi all.
I have started a petition for Nvidia to provide us the ICS drivers for venatana board so that if our manufacturers are unable to provide us ICS, our devs can make a ICS build with full H/W acceleration by using those drivers and if we will get those drivers we will surely get latest Jelly Build also (actually i trust in our devs more than our manufacturers).
This petition is not for only Galaxy R but for each and every device based on ventana board and their users suffers lacks of H/W acceleration with ICS (like Lg Optimus 2x, moto atrix).
kindly sign this petition and show your support also spread this to your friends so that they can also support in our petition against nvidia and so that we can show to nvidia that how we care about our devices and we want drivers from you.
if u guys think that anything should be added or edited in petition leave a reply here or PM me i will do it.
rate this thread and also provide it as a news tip so that we can spread this thread on whole xda by xda-portal
Thanks.

Didn't Nvidia already released ICS drivers? I'm typing from my Sony Tablet with ICS 4.0.3, and it also runs on the same HW as the Atrix. Also Motorola already gave ICS to other Tegra phones.

Not again...
While those devices are Tegra 2 devices, the Atrix uses a different chipset than those. Therefore, those drivers are near useless. Now if you took 5 minutes to read the other threads...
Signed and sent. Hope it'll help.
We should make O2X users sign this petition too. As well for others Tegra 2 AP20H based devices users. I'm posting it on other forums.
EDIT : Seems like it's already done.

Signed as well. I hope this helps, although I will admit: the prospects seem rather dubious... darn nvidia! Also, pretty sure that the drivers are in no way impacted by the fact that the KERNEL is licensed under GPL...
Hopeful nonetheless
