Lol no... im not a developer, wish i was though cause id be all over that.

You cant expect an release before officialy roll out for nexus devices.

Well, source code is already out for L, so it should be possible to start working on a port.

Possible, definitely.
But why spend precious time in an incomplete update? This "android l" that we have now isn't an official release still. Maybe it will get new features, fixes, or something else.
That's why we still don't have any android l rom, so, wait for the official release.

The full source code is not out, only parts of it. So why should anyone work on it?

Yeah i read that theres only a developer preview available, but the ui looks pretty amazing. Hopefully theyll release a full version soon... Pity that itll be running in ART and not Dalvik.
EDIT: Unless app developers are already working on support for ART, hope so.

Mate just wait for CM12, Cyanogen already told us they are not starting development until the full release of Android L sometime in the coming months. Just be patient

Android L is an approaching arrival of the Android mobile operating system created by Google.the most conspicuous progressions to L incorporate an upgraded client interface manufactured around a responsive configuration language alluded to as "material outline", and changes to the warning system which permit them to be gotten to from the lock screen, and showed inside different applications as flags over the highest point of the screen. Interior progressions were additionally made to the stage, with the Android Runtime (ART) authoritatively swapping Dalvik for enhanced application execution, and progressions expected to enhance and advance battery use.

If you really want android L, just install a cm11 theme, not the same but good enough for now

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

Same here. Brazil, ZTA... not even an announcement for a far away release of ICS.
I hope Samsung hasn't hidden any secrets away from the released source code (like code to very specific drivers). If they have, having the sources won't suffice for a properly working ICS Galaxy S 2.
on the other hand, this may be an indication that Samsung hasn't been able to correct bugs still present in their pseudo-official ICS release, and this is their last resort: release the code so that the developers community can fix bugs Samsung hasn't be able to fix. Not that Samsung didn't have to make such release - they should and it is high time they do so.

We know for a fact that there are bugs that Samsung is too clueless to notice/fix... But they are also too clueless to pull the fixes from the community.
See the fuel_alerted wakelock bug for example... Fixed for around 6 months by the community, still broken in Samsung kernels.
WTF!! really
this is great news.. wow cant wait for the fully working AOKP release
awesome, might now be able to get a decent kernal...and CM9 fully working on this bad boy!
Finally
I've been waiting for this so i can finally change to ICS (CM9) once everything is fixed
i feel like some one give me a million dollar
i hope we will got soon stable aosp and akop

Ubuntu Phone OS on N7000

Hey folks, I'm keen to start work porting the gnexus image for Ubuntu to the N7000 when it's released later this week. Is anyone else keen to join this effort?
While very familiar with the linux commandline, servers, desktop linux, and flashing my phone, I haven't compiled much code before and am unsure where to start. I would appreciate any advice you might have.
Looking forward to getting this os running on our original notes.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Deleted sorry wrong post.
I would love to see some support here. Push!
I'm presuming you're going to need to build an unbuntu compatible kernel for the note, mobile devices don't tend to work in the same way as desktops, so the pretty much universal kernel model used on the desktops don't work too well here. (size being the major consideration).
Not really looked into what they are doing, I'm presuming they will release source under gpl, so at least you will be able to diff a standard gnex build and the ubuntu. You can then use that as a basis to rebuild for the note.
"Porting" an image if that's all they release is going to end up quite messy.
EDIT according to techradar they will release source http://www.techradar.com/news/softw...galaxy-nexus-nexus-4-coming-next-week-1131567

You think every android phone runs on the same kernel? Think again.
It's always a possible that they will use an Android kernel for the gnexus or n4 builds, but it's unlikely, as Android has some features that don't play too nicely with a mainstream Linux build.
Not seen this yet, nor code for it, so can't say exactly what they are doing yet.

See what happens when it comes out then, but would seem from the information Canonical is presenting that they are using standard android kernels. Will be interesting to see.

Yes, but what he say is that Ubuntu runs from Android Kernel. The CyanogenMod 10.1 kernel. And as we have CM 10.1 on note, the kernel is not a problem
Yep, definitely looks doable now. Love cyanogenmod and ubuntu.

[ROM][GT-I9305] Ubuntu Touch Preview (Discussion until First Release)

IMPORTANT NOTES
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
- Until the Release of the first build this is purely Discussion and the steps leading up to the first build.
- I'm new to the Android Development side of things as all I've ever done was install Mods/ROMS/Recoveries and change a few settings here and there.
- I am in the process of trying to pick up all the skills needed to start this undertaking so it will be a while before you see any sort of real progress.
- If you can list things you think I ought to know please either send me a PM or post.
- I'm currently just setting up Virtual Box Configurations for Development.
Any help would be appreciated!

I don't suppose that the lot working on Ubuntu could cut out the rubbish that is comparing ARM quad core CPU's with x86 quad core CPU's?
other than that, it's nice to see another somewhat-edge oriented touch interface and will be interesting to try it on my i9305 once releases start coming, probably not gonna be a keeper though.
I'd really love to run Ubuntu Touch on GT-I9305 !!
So followed the instruction for the GT-I9300 device - but while the installation process it aborted with a message like some symlinks not working properly..
I'm ****ed up of android with google.. so I will install a native android on that device - but I'm the first who installs Ubuntu Touch ASAP!!
Thank you very very much for your work!!

My son tried it in his mako (officially supported). Very preliminary version. No market, apps must be installed by terminal Linux commands, even keyboard and language require terminal commands.
No apn. No sim code asked, so no network.
In fact unusable. So I can't imagine how it can be here.

On Android's official webpage is information that new Android can run well on devices with 512megs of RAM.

This is almost certainly true, but the whole point is to just get it booting, right? Like when they got JB running on the G1 :silly: a.s.j forgot to tell you, you should check out the #andromadus IRC to see if any of the devs still chat on there and also I've found members of the Slim ROMs team INCREDIBLY helpful in the past, I think they have an IRC channel too if you're new to the IRC stuff just say
