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.

yeah, it loads, but nothing works yet. You can't even unlock the screen because touch isn't working....the port for NS4g has WAY more working features.

In order to get touchscreen working you guys need an own .idc file in /usr/idc that is calibrated to the device.

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

[Need Testers]

Hey guys, i live over in the Mytouch 4g forums, and i am part of Team Inferno. I am a Rom/Kernel/Modding dev on Team Inferno and we want to branch out and support other devices. I made a sense 4.0 mod that will increase battery life an performance greatly, it can be used on any Sense 4.0 running HTC devices but i need testers to...test it haha. My mod adds governors without modifying the kernel.
Positions that i am looking for
Head Tester- Will get get the results from the other testers and send them back to Team Inferno, you will also test
Tester- Just test stuff
Thanks for all your help and you'll definetly get credit!!!

Im using GB roms, but sure, I'll help. Just pm me with detailed instructions with what you would like help with and which rom or set of roms you would like to be tested. The more info the better. Especially since I'm still new.

You'll be doing ICS roms, right now, i am working on Sense 4.0 mods so use your choice of rom for that, ill pm you more info. Are you available to immediate testing?

I am.
Just be patient. Im still not used to the terminology/abbreviations you guys use (not that you have used any yet)
Just for you to have an idea. It was only last night I came across more or less how to work adb. Or something like that. Just lemme know how to install the mod.
If you need a logcat, point me in the right direction of getting you one.
Edit: Just in case, I have an Inspire.
Could you link me to the forum of the rom you guys are working on?
2nd edit: found the thread. Looks interesting.

Where is Imilka?

Hey Bro, when i come to visit XDA, there is no way not to look for you. Whatsup Imilka? I hope doin' good!

I kidnapped him.
Ransom: 5 Notes (if Chinese leaks are flashed then I need 10 of them)

Yeah, we need more AOSP love

He's been scared by CyanogenMod.
I think.
...No?

Iirc he is currently porting paranoid android to the note.

That's exactly what i'm thinking. Lol
But when he shows up and comes up with new good stuff, CyanogenMod stepping aside as well (on my SGN) Lol
Actually, i'm missing CM's and Imilka's new update.
Coming up soon?

waiting for their update too =]

Maybe he fired his note, donate one to him now!

I thought maybe he hooked up with your team after the awesome port he did of CM9? Which was my first taste of cyanogen on Android btw. Was my favourite ROM for quite some time.
Anyway, keep up the good work! Looking forward to your progress on the Note.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA

Really miss his work too. Loving the progress that Entropy and XplodWild are making on the official CM9 build (I'm currently using it) and I can't wait for nightly builds, but Imilka's unofficial v03 is probably still the best ROM for the Note until the other devs can crack things like speakerphone and USB mass-storage.
Thinking of reverting back to Imilka's v03 for now. Any chance we could convince him to make a v04 that merely includes the latest CM9 changes?

what if he moved to sgsIII?
oh no

Come back imilka we nees you

I'm sure he'll be back when he has something developed.

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

Hey I'm picking up a 10 tomorrow, was wondering, is the only difference just resolution between 7 and 10 roms. Ie could you decompile framework, edit some xml files, compile and be good to go?

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

They're already creating forks and linking trees so I'm sure it's a matter of time.

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.

CyanogenMod coming soon to HTC One : Codeworkx + Koush

1) @codeworkx : we all know codeworkx of team hack sung ..
https://plus.google.com/111398485184813224730/posts/aJHAEuhyfzM
And
2) @Koush : developer and maker of cwm .. rom manager and Dev at CyanogenMod
http://koush.com/post/one-review .. See the last part..

But I think he said that he was going to develop for the Qualcomm version of the S4, not sure though... A bit disappointed but we still have really amazing developers!

I have limited knowledge on rom development but I have flashed CM on my current GS2 so would like to ask a few questions -
1.How difficult is it to root and flash roms on HTC devices, the One in particular, compared to Samsung phones?
2. There was lack of documentation and dev support from Samsung's side on the GS2, how does HTC compare? Will CM have everything functioning?
3. How does the 2 button lay out work with CM? Can we configure the buttons?

The MSM8960 crew has already built CM10.1. Check the AT&T HTC One Original Android Development section.
Codeworkx is currently working along with them. Not sure about Koush.
I heard CyanogenMod is working on other stuff currently.

Just fyi, ATT version of the device is the same basically as international. My understanding is that there are currently two different variants: GSM (international+ATT) and CDMA (Sprint)
So, ATT ROMs will work on international devices. Trickdroid is known to work on ATT, and I have read somewhere an international user using CM from the AT&T section.

Correct, all GSM variants play nice with one another. So a Rom developed for ATT will work with the international version. People will have to be a little careful when s-off comes but typically devs do not include radio's in their Rom's.

Man I hope sprint version gets the cm loving also

yeah, not putting an AOSP rom on my phone this time. Too many issues in the past on phones like the sgs3 - not everything works 100%, camera quality is crap, battery life not optimized, etc. Sense 5 is pretty minimal and brings some good features.
