Google Honeycomb for G Tablet - G Tablet General

Share u'r things........
Can we install that?
Anyone try that?

Sorry if I'm rude but this is the wrong section for your question. Also if honeycomb was available you would see at least one post stating as much.
And wth does "Share u'r things........" mean?

It hasn't been released to the public yet.

Beta Rom or Dump Rom
Can we find those? They release those tablets in CES 2011.

Yeah man, you can find Android Honeycomb on the G-Tablet. Just build a time machine and skip over to April 2011. In the meanwhile, stop acting silly.

I suppose you upgraded from Donut to Froyo when they released Eclair?

Screw it.Lets just skip to ice cream. Nice pic bro. I don't know if I wana listen to "i wear my sunglasses at night" or vanilla ice. "yo vip let's kick it"

That's hilarious. No 3.0 SDK, no source, not even a real demo at CES, just some video playing on an unpopulated 3.0 on the Xoom. No products released, just announced.
Apparently XDA are actually thought of as magicians at this point.

I saw footage of the actual os being used, widgets being added etc...it was on slashdot or something...

There was a live demo at CES if you showed up for the keynotes
Google performed a live demo of Honeycomb at CES as part of the Keynote Speech demonstrating the look and feel as well as changes to library, gmail etc ...roll on Honeycomb ...lookin cool

Closed this thread, as it is in the incorrect section and didn't really contribute to anything.

OTA iTunes syncing working?

Anyone figure out how to get this working?
isn't that a feature to come. If i remember correctly is was going to be in future versions. Ditto for the market and apps being sent to phone
Pretty sure this isn't going to be Froyo. It was mentioned under the 'sneak preview' section of the keynote.
I got flamed for blogging that it's going to be in Gingerbread by people who thought it was going to be in Froyo. I feel vindicated.
Hmm I thought it was a froyo feature! I get soo many duplicates from double sync
I watched the keynote and the way I understood it, it was coming in FroYo, but it appears I'm wrong.
It'd take a desktop application anyway, which we obviously don't have

Youre right. Vic said it was a sneak preview beyond froyo when he introduced this demo
I understood it as a feature to come as well but many blogs and tech sites all reported that it was a Froyo feature. I was so confused and thought maybe I heard wrong lol

[Q] Honeycomb for nook color, why not for us?

Why are we not getting honeycomb to play with?
You really need to read some threads before posting a question that has already been answered many times.

And the honeycomb you are referencing has no practical use in the real world. Its a hacked together UI that does nothing but run the preview sdk
if it was worth it we would have it. our devs kick ass
Moved to general
I hate to sound like a jerk but what is it with all the people whining about honeycomb. The only version out so far is a hacked version built off the prelim sdk and in no way will work for the g tablet. Anyone who has been Modding for anytime knows the cardinal rule for android...
DON'T ASK FOR ETA'S.
When honeycomb is officially released by Google I'm sure it'll be like every other release and in a short time we'll have our own version. Until then have some patience please and do some research.
or if you want honeycomb straight away then get a xoom and pay the big bucks
What i dont get is why do people ask and ask...........
Doesnt your gtab do everything you need It to?
honeycomb... Hero cookie....danish....pop tart...soda cracker........flap jack or royal with cheese
Just names I dont see anything i cant wait for.
Now when they say the next android version will give my gtab the ability for it to make me samwiches and give me oral pleasure on demand that is when i will be all over the devs to build that $hit....

Let me get this straight. You post in the wrong section, you ask for an ETA, and you obviously did not search, which also means you did not read any of the forum rules or stickies. Yet, somehow we are all assholes. You know if you just follow a few simple rules your experience with XDA will be much better. The rules here are no different than any other forum. I am going to assume you are new to this, so I will help you a bit. Search for what an SDK port is and you will quickly realize why you do not want this.

I think you should flash the Nook Color ROM BilliamB, you obviously know what you're doing, I'm sure you can get it to work. I mean come on, the G Tablet has a Tegra 2 processor, it should totally work right? Although you may want to read a few threads.... oh wait, you obviously don't do that. Come on dude, the only one here being an AH (as you put it) is you.

Seriously.... You will not see Honeycomb on the G Tablet until another unit is released with Honeycomb and has the Tegra 2 chip. The issue is the instruction sets are different enough that its not a one for one port. The Nook, Dell Streak 5, Tegra 2, etc. are all based on the ARMv7 instruction set but there are difference in their implementation enough that make them incompatible. In addition the biggest differences lay in the I/O subsystem which makes these platforms completely different. With these major differences it makes porting from the emulator (which is how they are getting Honeycomb to work) a daunting tasking and nearly impossible on a Tegra 2 based device.
I am very confident after the first Honeycomb system image is posted it will be running on our tablets... It will be a race as to who gets props on Engadget for being the first to port to the G Tablet..
You would get less hostility if you read, learned and asked accordingly. Its a give and take community. Unfortunately the way you asked makes it seem your less inclined to contribute and just take...

Seriously dude....This is about the 10th thread with this same topic started since the nook got the honeycomb sdk running. You ask questions without searching and then cause you dont get the answer you want you call us names. Don't worry, most of us won't answer your questions anymore.....ever.

Totally agreed. XD.
Hey Alpha06...
I'm just curious if that is a confirmed news or word of mouth that the G-tablet would have Honeycomb around the March?
I wouldn't guarantee that Honeycomb for the G-tab would be available for sure in March, however I wouldn't be surprised to see Alpha-versions of Honeycomb ROMs shortly after the first Tegra2 devices are released and rooted. Like everyone has been saying around here, don't ask for an ETA, because the people around here that do develop do it on their personal time. They have lives, work, and possibly kids, wives, or whatever that also wants their time as well.
Remember, porting a ROM is a lot easier if there is solid reference material to build from. As you may notice, TNT-Lite comes from his building on and improving the existing TNT version of Android that came with the G-Tablet. Vegan is a modification and improvement of the Vega OS. I don't believe that the developers of either package (and correct me if I am wrong) went to Google's GIT repository for Android and compiled their own versions of the OS specifically for the device - along with writing their own custom device drivers for all of the internal hardware. They built off of, and improved what was available.
IIRC, the Nook port of Honeycomb is only partially functional. The just released port for the Dell Streak (http://www.mytabletlife.com/2011/02/08/dell-streak-honeycomb-port/) is as well. Why, because they are essentially starting from scratch.
Which brings everything back to my original point. As soon as reference devices are out in the wild, I'm sure that will be the point where we will see Honeycomb ports start to pop up here as well.

march can not get here soon enough... heh.

honey comb 3.0

hey guys please dont be mad im just trying to see if this will help ur development as i want a g tablet myself currently i am in the hd2 android development forums on xda and there a guy found some honeycomb for desire hd i know honeycomb is suppose to be for tablets so i thought why not let u guys see what u could do with it here a link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?goto=newpost&t=960503 or u could just google hd2 android development xda its there in the nand development part of it the devs in there are working on porting it to hd2 maybe ur devs can get it working
most of the gtab devs are still working on gingerbread.
I would imagine that they won't focus on Honeycomb until an official SDK is released. Right now everything you are seeing is probably based off of the preview SDK.
Google has 30 days to release the SDK after someone releases the first product (probably the XOOM) with honeycomb on it.
trust me, i'm patiently waiting too...
Yeah, probably it is ported from the SDK preview so it is not very usefull to usbecause it is not complete and it doesnt suports our dual core.

Really? i though we were really waiting for the xoom release because the rom could be ripped out from the xoom and ported for our beloved tablet.(Xoom release this thursday)
I also though, because i read a post, that making a rom from an SDK was not very convinient and that it implied a lot of work. I could be wrong or i could have read wrong.
BTW: I think this is the wrong section to post this. XD, I could be wrong about that also.
Well, I think it's possible to port it from xoom to gtab.
Buy me one and I'll do it for you, for free! =D
Cheers
Not development. Moved to General.
It could be an SDK port, but I'll check it out. Thanks for the link.
EDIT: Yeah, this looks like an SDK port - I can tell just from the build.prop.
Folks at NotionInkHacks claim they are close to a port already:

When a real honeycomb rom is available i guarantee there will be a stickied topic in development. NotionInkHacks are no closer than anyone else. Some of the same people are working on their roms as the GTab roms. Everyone is still missing the same files.
yeah, probably you are right. I hope we can get those files from the Xoom in its release this Thursday.
The A-Team at Notion Ink Hacks takes pride in our secrecy and the ability to get things done. We are very close to porting Honeycomb for both the Notion Ink Adam and the Viewsonic GTab. However, we need your help to find a Tegra based Boot.img and System.img for Honeycomb.

I'm guessing that's all the xda developers here need to get Honeycomb up and running gtab also.
Don't worry about Adam versus GTAB - they are so similar that if one gets it, the other won't be far behind. And the VEGA too, we'll all benefit I'm sure.

XT720 on Wikipedia

Looks like some of us made Wikipedia .
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motorola_Milestone_XT720#References
Haha is that a pix of and XT by an XT? Would that be MadXT Disease.
That Wikipedia page actually has quite a lot of problems.
Let me post some things found on the page:
Unfortunately the CBW or "Cincinnati Bell" update was nothing but a plagiary of D3xters First 2.2 update. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11082732&postcount=1 was posted on XDA Developers website 6 months previously to the "BS Official" update CBW put out.
Due to the fact that CBW was boasting their "Official" XT720 update, actual developers stop developing on D3xters release in anticipation of a "fixed XT720". The wait was mostly due to incorrigible system hack's that disabled vital functions in the ROM's system.

Plagiarism? Really? Android is Open-Source for a reason.
And something I find really funny in that post:
Fortunately, the developers stroked back lol and took back the XT720.

[Q] Why is there no ICS development thread for XOOM

Is there any developmental ROM's being worked on for the XOOM wifi?? It seems this would have been the forst working port or AOSP development being the device is pure google.
Solarnz is working on it. He has a video on youtube showing it pseudo working. Radios aren't working but it boots lol. The thread is in the general section somewhere.
Sent from my Xoom using XDA App
First off, unfortunately, I don't see much development of any kind for the Xoom -let alone an ICS ROM. Secondly, the good news is -we are at the top of the queue for an official ICS release. This maybe why no one is bothering to step-up to the plate.
I kinda figured that..yeah it's ad we have probably one of the sweetest and most powerful tablets yet we get shunned like a KIRF from Engadget. Upsets me sometimes to see the editorials and things about us like we are not AOSP and dual core with 10inch screen,,Like were a Touch Sensitive, plastic screened hacked piece of crap...
Glad to know someone is working on a build finally. This by far should have been the easiest build out of them all as it was built on our tablets to begin with.
Well I don't think it was built for the tegra 2, so that is an issue that has to be ironed out. Plus, I am sure there are some driver issues that need to be worked out. I'd assume once an official ICS build comes out for us that will help with the drivers to get everything working. I wouldn't put it past the devs working it now to have done before the official build.

I loved the Josh Topolsky-era Engadget more. I met him at an NYC meetup. Cool dude. I was looking for that site he started up but forgot the name so thanks for that! Apparently, quite a few former Engadget writers followed Josh over to The Verge.
As for being iJobs, that condescending quiff Johnathan Geller, aka The BOY Genius, is a shameless Apple fanBOY. If you went to his site for a review about a product from one of Apple's competitors you could have gotten a more objective review from Steve Jobs himself (R.I.P Steve).

Off Topic:
The hipsters and ijobs all left engadget for the verge, in my opinion. If anything they seem less biased now since the exodus...
On Topic:
The AOSP 4.0 that's out there now isn't optimized for tegra and doesn't include any device support for any tegra devices, so the devs are stuck using Honeycomb binaries for some parts for now. That's left things in a semi-working state, which we are dilligently trying to hack around, but not much more progress is probably going to be made until google and nvidia release source that is truly compatible with the Xoom. It's Google/Nvidia more than Motorola here.
I'll add sources on request, but google specifically nvidia's november 30th statement about the xoom ICS source, and look at dev threads for other tegra tablets (on here and Tabletroms.com).

That's not exactly true.

I feel even more excited to see what bigrushdog and solarnz come up with now.
