Hi! I know it's possible, so can anyone create android 2.3 or 2.2.1 rom for ZTE Racer?
P.S: Right now its very popular device in RUSSIA)(Sorry for my bad english)
2.3 was just announced. Give it time. I'm sure someone, somewhere might port it. However, I think because the Nexus S is so close (practically the same) to the Vibrant and other Galaxy S phones- they will receive 2.3 first (not including the N1 which will probably get the update OTA soon). I think it's gonna be...
-N1
-Galaxy S
-Droid X/EVO around the same time
I'd have to disagree. That might be an accurate estimate of the official schedule, tho OG droid and possibly droid 2 will get it far before the x, and the htc phones will have to wait much longer, but custom roms will be out much sooner. i'd expect an og droid very soon, certainly this week.
Any news about this ?
got 2.3 for the zte racer just sorting a few bugs then will upload it for you,
Is it done? because I have racer too, and it would be really good if it works
modaco developers already ported it..

Hi,
I need a bit of help making up my mind. The HTC Legend fits my budget quite nicely, and I like it. I've played with both the Legend and the Desire, and while I do think the Desire is better, I'm quite happy with the Legend at the price I'm getting it at.
My only question is this - assuming HTC never releases Froyo for the Legend (and this seems to be likely), would it be possible and advisable to root it and put Froyo on it? If yes, my decision becomes so much easier.
I'm asking this because it'll be disappointing buying a fairly new phone and seeing it not supported at all in the future.
Thanks all.
It's definitely possible to root the Legend and Froyo can technically be ported to any Android device with the right know-how, so really it's a matter of time before someone does.
I think there will be an official Froyo update for the Legend - it's not that old and the Hero is still going to get Eclair despite its age (although it is a more popular phone).
This article seems to indicate that an update is coming soon although it's weirdly worded and it makes it sound like it's an Eclair update coming to the Desire and the Legend - which is what's already on there. Hopefully it's not just a minor patch.
If HTC go ahead an release an official update you can expect Sense, updated drivers and thereby better use of the hardware than custom ROMs.
Thank you for that. I'm in Australia and there's a good chance that we might get the Nexus One end of June. I've decided to wait for that and compare the plans between the N1 and Legend before committing. If the N1 is much more expensive, I'll get the Legend immediately.
On a separate note I can't wait until Google makes updating phones a bit more straightforward, or forces HTC to pull their socks up when it comes to passing on the updates to consumers.
Thanks again.
So I'm wondering... with the recent news of Gingerbread being ported to the Galaxy S from the Nexus S, will the Mesmerize ever be getting it? It seems that the CDMA phones are like the black sheep compared to GSM, and out of the CDMA SGS phones, the Mesmerize is the black sheep in the shadow if the Fascinate.
So do we have any hope of ever seeing Gingerbread on it?
I sure hope so. Just skip froyo and go straight to gingerbread.
Atleast you guys have a section on the forum... The Samsung Galaxy S Showcase has nearly no support in contrast.. Though i'm seeing alot of Mesmerize sys file matches..
So why would anyone spend time working on Froyo for the Mez (or others) when 2.3 is out there?

There are lots of reasons why a company wouldn't throw away time, money, and resources spent on a project that they had already completed and shipped to a provider. First off, their end is done except fixing bugs. If Samsung, or any other company for that matter, stopped working on 1.6 because 2.1 was just around the corner, then that phone would be obsolete before it got it's first update. We've only been waiting a couple of months for froyo. Why would you want to wait another 6 months to a year for gingerbread to be our first update? Let's get froyo in our phones, and then we can all hope like hell that gingerbread hits for us before we've gotten rid of the Mes for something new.
When will the Android 2.3 ROMs start showing up?
Soon as they get the bugs worked out
You can see working "tech demos" under the i9000 Galaxy forum as well as other Samsung forums.
AND... I think just about every other "major" brand of phone currently has someone working on it lol. Just need to browse around the dev forums and see if your phone has someone working on a port.
Thank you! I can't wait!!
Beat you guys to it
Sent from my HTC Hero CDMA on 2.3.2
Look at the post date, january 5th. There are 2.3 ROMs out now for many phones, I don't think this question needed to be revived. :/
When will my motorola milestone will get 2.3!!!!
I really hope that hTC doesnt drag their feet on getting me 2.3 for my Incredible!
I would guess that 2.3 is still quite a ways off from manufacturer releases.
Here is the thing.....
I can't upgrade till sept. 15 for verizon. I've been looking at a couple of phone developer forums.
It seems that the Droid Incredible and Thunderbolt forums seem to be the best for different roms.
Hopefully, the incredible 2 will be cheap by then. I know its not a matter of time before someone finds a way to get it fully rooted.
I have to give all the juice to the droid eris development team because they are all awesome. I love the rom's there and I hate to upgrade. However, I think the new phones offer so much more.
Go with the Samsung Vibrant for sure!
Hellot there i just received a new tablet for christmas abd i wanted to learn some new things.
First oglf all i have to admit it that i am new to this android scene. I am a fan of apple but wheb it comes to tablets i guess abdroid has an advantage. whatever this is not the purpose of my message.
What i wabted to know is this: I received an Le Pan tc 970 but i saw they got the new Le Pan 2ut with the honeycomb support . My question is: is it worth rerurning this current tablet to buy the new one just because it has a new firmware on it? Or the hobeycomb isnt that much of a deal abd I should keep this one? Any advantages to buy the ther one in comparasion to this ine except it is new? Does it have much more feature than 2.2?
If not I know abdroid is the world of customizations... but i dont seem to get it. Do i need to root my system in order to makee tose customizatiobs available? I didnt ser that much themes for this tablet... also it doesbt even have its own section... Is it because the tablet isnt that popular?
Finally could i have some few threads to get me started? I kniw pretty much abiut apple... but Andriid is completly new to me!
Thanks! And sorry for all of the mistakes... The keyboard makes my mind go nuts... it is too big!
Honeycomb (Android 3.0) is newer version than froyo (2.2).
If you can get one with Ice Cream Sandwich (Android 4.0) then it is worth returning it
and get a new one.
Most of the tablets are running Froyo or Gingerbread (Android 2.3) .
Honeycomb is closed source, google has not released its software to public.
All other versions as of now are open source AOSP (Android Open Source Platform)
ask them whether it can be upgraded to ICS (4.0)
Well honeycomb is kinda better for tablets since it has a tablet ui but now since they released ics you should check if your tablet is getting the ics update which has a bunch of new features and if it doesn't i think you should get one with the new os.
Right! Look for ics update. It is much better
I don'T think there are many tables with ICS...? Am I wrong? And what about a starter guide?
