Anyone know if this is just the kernel source or are they actually giving us the Sense code?
EDIT: nevermind I'm an idiot. It's the kernel code.

HTC will never release their proprietary OS source code, nor will any other third party manufacturer. They are copyrighted and protected, they are what help them make money. Open source only refers to the kernel, which is all you will ever see from them.

I would like to request the source code for the Gingerbread Build for the LGP999. This request is in the interest of LG and the Android community for development
You do realize that the opensource bits (kernel, basically) is the same as the original stock ROM, right?
I doubt there will be anything of interest in an updated version, especially since ours has already deviated a fair bit from its roots.

NO. This isn't what I was told by Faux in another thread. I asked about getting an updated kernel with voodoo support, oc/uv, etc. for the 2.3.3 and his response was that an open source did not exist anywhere and thus I shouldn't hold my breath until one became available.

LOL, you can drop that fat tip any time but it won't affect the outcome for the unofficial 2.3.3 release from LG. No source code to 2.3.3 exist ANYWHERE!

Also got the exact same response from them this morning

Well... Either he's wrong, or you misunderstood him
Someone needs to ask nvidia for their source so we can get a2dp back, I'm assuming they will provide if asked since they open source all their video drivers....I'd do it myself but wouldn't know who to contact or how, lol... I poked around on the nvidia Tehran site a while ago and found the 2.3.3 tegra bits, but I dunno if they included what we need to get a2dp

Hi,
pulser_g2 has just created a petition for Samsung to release more of their source code to developers:
http://www.change.org/petitions/samsung-mobile-help-third-party-development-achieve-full-potential-of-purchased-devices#
Good initiative, spread the word.
Great initiative! Hope we can reach a huge number of signs
Support! +1
Anyone?
"Over the past few months there's been a growing trend among manufacturers to play nice with the development community. We've seen Sony release early alpha builds of Android 4.0, Asus bow to community pressure and unlock the Transformer Prime's bootloader, and HTC offer similar unlocks for almost all of its devices. This newly-found openness doesn't seem to be abating: Samsung has made the kernel source code for its Galaxy S II Android 4.0 update available for public download, and HTC has followed suit with similar releases for its Vivid, Sensation, and Sensation XE smartphones.
The kernel source is a valuable tool for developers, providing the code needed to easily modify core device functions, allowing for CPU overclocking and countless other tweaks. Although both companies release kernel source codes for all of their models, these releases are unusually prompt, and hint at a change in attitude towards the development community.
Those of you inclined to trawl through vast sections of code can find the releases in the source below. For the rest of you, stay tuned for news of the first community efforts to come from the releases."

Sorry, bro but this is only for the Galaxy S II.
I've seen a couple of these posts pop up in other forums .
Lol i just thought i would throw it out there. since im sure the wagon will begin to fill very quickly round these parts.
took samsung long enough...
I just found out that the COKC updates source code for the T-Mobile Note 5(SM-N920T) was combined and hidden with the S6+ source codes. I don't know why they did this but if you couldn't find the COKC source codes there they are.

That's Dec 15th update. Samsung regularly releases GPL licence related stuff (excluding proprietary part) on their opensource website, which can't be built as whole ROM. Kernel dev can play with it but it ain't Marshmallow.

Agreed, my point was, that is not attached to SM-N920T at all it was hidden attached to a completely different device. Also I gave the location out for devs who didn't know where to locate it.
