As stated by the title, I know we are waiting for the Honeycomb source to be released before any Honeycomb roms are developed for the Gtab. But, and it's a big But!, Now that google has said they are delaying the release of the HC source are we going to see some Honeycomb SDK ports? Or are we going to wait until the true source is released? I don't really mind either way, it's just a question that is on my mind and I'm sure is on the mind of others here.
Your question has been answered before on several closed "honeycomb" threads during the release timeframe of Xoom.

If you do a search, you will find a lot of info.. In a couple of HC threads, the conversation got very heated between a few members and the dev.. it is why the mods decided to ban "honeycomb" thread. Did the mods say no honeycream thread too?
This thread is one of the HC classic.

While I think your question is valid and worth asking (although as indicated above, you probably could have found it by searching), The question I have is 'Did this deserve another thread?'. Clearly you knew posting new HC threads was a bad idea. Why not ask your question in the 'Official' HC thread?

Most new members are not familiar with the search.. plus, you cannot post a question to the official HC thread. You can send private question though.
I am with Dcon87 that it is also on my mind but I am just not going to ask.. Once a while, the Mod updated the official HC thread with update....
so, just be patience.. everyone!

Fair enough. I didn't realize the official thread was locked. Thought you could post to it.
As for any ports of the SDK, I don't think you will see anything on that front.
The SDK was compiled for the emulator (an ARM emulator). Thus, ports are showing up for phones/devices that run an ARM based chip. Being a Tegra device, that compilation won't run on our tablets.
You may see some renewed interest in trying to pull out certain APKs, but even that has the stumbling block of likely being dependent on the new framework and fragments API.
As much as I'd like to see HC in action on this tablet, and as ticked as I am at google for this move, I think we are basically 'stuck'. Without the source, you are basically pissing up rope
IBTL lol
Agree, without the source, it is hard for the dev to cook. I am following the Notion Ink hack forum.. and they basically said the same, the good news is that Notion Ink claimed that they are working on Honeycomb....
Just wondering will Viewsonic/malata send requests to google to get the honeycomb source? As I read it, tablet makers can make requests to access to the source as long as they are using it only on tablets.

Considering they just unloaded 10,000 GTabs on Woot and the retail channels are having a fire sale right now, I don't think Viewsonic will be doing anything related to decent software changes.

I think you are right. Viewsonic probably won't do anything to it but we may be surprised. I thought last update was the final one.. now, they are releasing another one with the lockscreen. who knows.. Back to Dec last year, the VP of Product marketing of Viewsonic answered some questions in this forum, and I "wish" he is back with some answers on the future of the gtab.. probably in my dream.. =P
Pipposanta of tabletroms and the crew in the ##adamroot irc have released the first honeycomb port for the AC100 over in the toshiba section at tabletroms.
nice to see my work also helped them on AC100
its easy when you know how or who to ask
Does this forum cover tablets and readers running android os?
I am seeking information on hacking a Cruz reader but only see sections in the form for specific brands/models of phones.
this forum supports android and even windows
It covers all of those devices.
Thanks
Good to know...Thanks much
I have been searching this thread for any ROMS or developments for an android tablet that I own. However I could not find any. It is a Infotmic x210 also known as an eken m009f (5 pin mini usb). I have been on here recently for my samsung captivate and figured there must be some custom roms out for my tab on here too, no luck. I wanted to let you all know that this other forum has many tablets included with roms just for those tablets and other information that may be very useful!

I was just curious if any developers (aside from SDBags) was developing for the Tf701 also?
I have heard that the Tf701 tablet is awesome, but not alot developer support is going on with it, specifically with AOSP Roms, as these roms could really make this tablet extremely fast. I'm sure may tf701 users would appreciate the approach and there may be donations related to your work. This is something I hope could happen, since the more developers available for the tablet, the better for its overall lifespan. Thanks again for all your guys help and support with the TF700 and any other tablets you have all worked on!!
Ahem. Did you check the Development and Original Development sections for the TF701???
There's an unofficial AOKP rom and pershoot is developing the CM11. Plus sbdags with CROMBi-KK, CROMi-X and a stock rooted rom. That's it.
Plenty for me....

I have the tf300t right now, and maybe because developing Custom Roms was a bigger thing back then, there were alot more developers interested in creating Roms. I was just curious if any developers from the tf700 tablet section was interested in also developing for the tf701. I already said in my first post, aside from sdbags. I know he does alot of hard work on his roms and he has always been a supporter since I first unlocked my tf300t. I was just curious about if there were any developers interested, because after Asus's Stock OTA's are over, there will be no way to get any more recent software updates, aside from the developers wonderful help.
My tf300t was supposed to be stuck on Jellybean to Asus's logic, and because there were many talented developers (like sdbags), I am running the latest version of kitkat on my tf300t. I was just curious as to if anyone else was interested, and I'm sure it would be helpful to the developers at the tf701 section to have some more help so there is a smaller workload with every developer.
I am not putting down or bashing any developers that are working on tf701 roms. I am happy that there are developers even working on this tablet, but I was just curious if any others were interested in working on it or helping out any of the current developers on that tablet.
