Beta honeycomb port for Gtablet available.

There is a semi working port of honeycomb for the g-tablet available from the below link. I looked through the threads and could find no mention of this.

You need to look harder.
The thing is, because its not being developed/released on xda its not mentioned in the Development section.

sorry - It makes sense that this is not in the dev thread
It makes sense that this is not in the dev thread but it is big news and I skim for new post every day in the dev section and did not see any. Sorry I wish I could delete this post.

I'm curious about this since the project obviously IS development, but is being moved to General every time a thread references it.
Is this happening because Roebeet is now, for some reason no one has shared, persona non grata around here?
I mean, I guess it makes sense if he is no longer part of the XDA "family" but it still seems kind of silly.

I believe it is because the DEVELOPMENT is happening elsewhere.

It's not that at all..
Development is for the actual development of something and by the developer of that something, not the discussion of things being developed elsewhere regardless of who is developing it.
A good example.....CM7, the primary source tree for all Gingerbread built ROMs on the Gtablet is discussed in General as well because CyanogenMod is not posting their development and issues....it's others just talking about it.
The easiest way to think of it is that the development forum section is for a developer to post on their work and get feedback.
If it's not your work and you aren't doing the "developing" on it.....post it in General.

This really makes me want to punch whoever that drove roebeet away. Seriously, the guy is as dedicated as you can expect any dev who's doing this out of pure hobbyist enthusiasm.
The guy actually spent his valuable time to give us honeycream. Whoever that accused roebeet of any ill intention and effectively drove him away, shame on you. You should go and buy an ipad and leave us gtabbers alone.

When you think about it viewsonic made this all possible by releasing the 1.2 bl. In the end they have given us honey creams...
The honey comb port is from another device that uses a compatible or similar bl.
Roebeet is simply ironing out the gtab specific bugs. But therew are numerous bugs, so his work is much appreciated.
I definitely hate following the development on an outside site from xda. Because I love this community. But it is what it is.

Really Jerdog?
I think you take this too far. Just being a jerk now.
I guess you will be removing all links to CM7 huh? Isn't that another tablet/phone/forum site? Those DEV's don't post/host their projects here.
I've never really taken sides in this little spat, but I think this is childish.
It's not like this is just one of many CM7 derivatives. It's the only bootable HC image I know of for the G-tab at this moment. Whatever flaws, issues, malfunctions it may have, many in these forums would like to play around.

This is an amazing rom for an alpha!

Don't worry its all over the General section right now
XDA is merely reaping what some of its members/mods have planted (see: roebeet vs. XDA regarding 1.2 bl), and the more they continue to make a big issue about it the more the members will be trafficking and directing others traffic outside XDA.

Thats not the issue here (IMHO), the thing is , everyone who wants to try this ROM needs to load 1.2bl, this just proves that 1.2bl was the way to go (as suggested a month or two ago). The 1.1 <-> 1.2 switch just to try honeycomb will drive many users (at one point or another) to keep using the semi-backed, still alpha, HC release to avoid the overhead of the switch (especially given the rate of advances made in the HC port and bricking risk involved in jumping back and forth). Now all the current ROM developers (in clear contradiction to what XDA advocated) will need to either release 1.2 compatible ROMs or risk loss of interest.

I originally thought that they didn't want to do this becuase they will then have wasted all that time on the 1.1 Roms that are still in development...but then something dawned on me. Roebeet was able to port 3 existing Roms, all that he worked on, to 1.2. One based on TNT lite, one based on Gadam, and one (and probably best Rom I've ever used) based on Vegan. Keep in mind, he had all 3 of these up and running in about 2 days. He's actually been working on all of those, the HC port, and general 1.2 tools all at the same time. He's created direct and simple processes to flash to 1.2, a revised CWM for it, has Pershoot and Clemsyn on board with kernels.
Call me a fanboi, etc...but the man has really put in some major time on the 1.2 projects.

The whole 1.1/1.2 bootloader thing is stupid and melodramatic. There is little difference, and no real reason to use one vs the other. As builds from Malata get released, this will likely be a non-issue. sooner or later a 'standard' will emerge. Time takes care of this.
As for this 'overhead' between switching, its a fairly simple process to nvFlash. I think we forget that this is an enthusiasts and developers site. There are plenty of threads/articles explaining how to do it. This ain't Viewsonic Tech support. If you can't read these threads and learn how to do this, you really shouldn't be toying with the firmware to start with.

At the moment there is a few good reasons to use 1.2. The main one is HoneyComb . But it has been found that the 1.2 for the Adam is interchangeable with our 1.2. The adam developers have said they are working on a gingerbread release which means that 1.2 will be the way to get acceleration on a gingerbread rom.
Sure at the moment, if you don't feel like playing around with Honeycomb which is only partially working (I can't believe how much progress has been made in the last 2 days), there is no real reason to switch today. But, it looks like the best of what will come out in the near future is on 1.2 which can only be found on a different web site currently.

WTF!!! I just donate!!
Suprah..."no cyanogen, rom manager still fake flashes the roms thats y for nvidia phones we have to use nvflash"

I am new to this whole scene, but gotta say that the Faux rom is tits....whatever happened, I hope it gets fixed soon.

I agree totally. Faux has personally helped me numerous times and his Kernel, Rom and overall knowledge of the G2X and android platform as a whole pushes him out the din and into the realm of Developer IMO. If he doesn't meet the requirements of being a Dev then very few of the supposed "devs" on here do, yet they still get the recognition. Even after his title was removed he's still working hard on his projects and still helping people.
I don't know what happened or why but it's wrong, Faux was wronged and I think a bit less of XDA for it. I'm sure I'm not the first or last to say this so whatever, just my 2 cents that wasn't asked for.

Seriously, what's up with this?
Any admins or mods care to chime in here with the reasoning behind this? This kind of stuff drives devs away, which you can already see happening.
Members go where devs go, come on xda!

I agree Faux is a very dedicated developer who has helped the community a lot and we should drum up support for him to be Recognized.

my thing is that faux is putting out kernels and roms for more than just this phone and the mods and admin guys and girl cannot recognize him shame on them.

yea he is a super nice guy idk what he could of done for that to happen hes to nice lol, faux is one of the best developers hands down, and yea i said it

I agree. Even though I'm new here, it didn't take me long to realize that Faux is one of the most, if not THE most valued developer for this phone. Most other rom developers include his kernals in their roms that they stamp their own names to...if that's not an endorsement, I don't know what is.

There is always two sides to a story. With that being said, im on his titles side.WE dont know what Faux may or my not have done but if the issue is out side of his work it shouldnt effect the title. Admited I maybe the newest guy on here but without Faux's work my G2x wouldn't.

Here's a screenshot of the updates.. This is still work in progress (for version 1.2.7 and beyond), once CyanogenMod has completed their license updates to their own releases, my ROM will also display all the appropriate licenses.
BTW, I am taking a break from android for a while, I am going to pick up my guitar lesson again. Android has taken up quite a bit of my free time and I want to get back to my practice (I really suck at playing guitar, but I still want to learn it).

So did CM feel as though Faux wasn't giving credit for their work???? I remember from day one that he always gave credit to CM for all the work that they put in.... I also remember he was forced to change the name of his rom because they were unhappy about it... Seems like they were angry that he was possibly using some of their framework, and were jealous that his rom was receiving way more attention then theirs, leading for them to complain about how he was not giving them the proper credit for work which is why he now has to incorporate these apache license things... Who knows that's just my opinion and if it is the case its BS because like I said before he always gave credit in his threads to the work CM team did... Hopefully Faux gets bored of playing the guitar and playing street fighter and comes back because GOD knows he is needed and wanted here and not just for the G2X but for the android community.

It looks like this under investigation by the mods at this moment and has been for the past few days. Not much more info than that was mentioned since it's between Faux and XDA.
Hopefully this gets settled quickly.

I hope it gets rectified quickly because Faux is the man!!!

Whats the point of this thread? Where is it that it was claimed that he was not a developer? Is it because of the apache licensing that you are all upset?
The only concern that I would have is how the updates are represented from version to version. Looking at the latest release, other than the kernel, none of the changes seem to be any different than that of nightly CM7 but are represented as different or as if written by him. I don't think its intentional and probably just needs to be clarified.
Seriously though, why you all got your panties in a bunch?

Either way, good luck faux... we look forward to seeing you back in the future...

That's the link to the security patch put together by Undeadk9. It's over in Dev.
When these issues were first released, we all handled it immediately and he made a patch to make it easier to do it.
If you haven't flashed it or are on a ROM that hasn't dealt with these issues, look into it.
The link to the androidpolice article is in Undeadk9's thread.

The answer, unfortunately, is "that depends".
Keystrokes *are* being caught and logged, that's clear. It doesn't appear that they're being permanently stored or transmitted, but that doesn't matter. Malicious software could potentially read those keystrokes and do whatever with them.

You'll need to remove the SWM-C stuff.
That's the redbend sofware managemet client, which T-Mobile includes. That software gives T-Mobile the ability to install, remove, or modify any software installed on your phone without your knowledge or permission.
EDIT: Actually, it'd be great if ROMs could be titled with [NOSWM], so we'd know. Just a thought.

The Rubix Cubed ROMs have all been "fixed" now to prevent this invasion of privacy. Since we aren't allowed to post about other forums on here all I can say is to Google RubiX CubeD ROM and you'll see your 3 options.
**mods i.e. arrrghhh**
As you can see I haven't posted any direct links or referenced any other particular forums to acquire these said roms so I am not violating what you referred to as "uncredited" work and a "d!ck" move as quoted from your PM to me this morning below .....Google is everyone's friend and it's pretty common knowledge anything can be found on there!

So, I'm guessing if we freeze the SWM-C stuff, we should be safe? Is there anything else that's questionable and should be frozen?

I'm no expert. I have a rooted but stock MT4GS. I downloaded an app from the marketplace that is supposed to find if you have the software on your phone.
According to the software, I don't have the "infection".
I searched the marketplace for "carrier iq" and found a few detectors. I used one from Lookout, the people that make remote lock and wipe software. I also downloaded one from Bitdefender and got the same negative answer.
TMO News had a post with a list of offending phones and ours was not on there.
My guess is that it is not on our phones.

Our phone doesn't come with carrier iq thankfully. TrevE has an app that checks and removes it.
We do however have swm-c and htc loggers. Both can be removed. I know undeads roms have both removed.
I checked for both already.

MIUI for Droid Charge

I am not a developer, I am just a normal phone geek that enjoyed MIUI, and found this following site with a MIUI build.
MOD Edit: Link Removed due to registration, and general shadiness.
I know that MIUI is old news for some of you, and dislike the ROM, however for those, such as my self, that are MIUI fans I found a beta build of MIUI for the charge in another web site "z4cellforum" by Cjen. Since XDA is usually the best place for ROMs, I thought I'd share this links with you guys.

Nice link. Can't even view anything before signing up. And not everyone uses facebook! /rant

I don't care enough to log in and look, but there was a guy that popped up here and on Rootz a week or two ago claiming to have a MIUI build which turned out to just be an EP1 GummyCharged build that was poorly modified and had a few MIUI app replacements. I didn't look at it myself, but others whom I respect reported it to be a total hack job.
Anyone know if this is the same build?

Mecha Centre- for everything HTC Thunderbolt

This is already over at RootzWiki, but I thought I'd spread the news to XDA too!
Hey all,
So I've been working on a site (which went live earlier today) to serve as a repository for ROMs, kernels, recoveries, things like that, and even news- Mecha Centre.
I've noticed that the Thunderbolt community is dying a bit, not only because of the age of the Thunderbolt, but because of the whole RIL Ice Cream Sandwich fiasco which suggests that Thunderbolt development is dead without HTC's releasing updates.
I've created this site to help revive/keep the community of devs and users alive, as well as to make it easier to locate ROMs and other files one may need for their Thunderbolt.
We're still working on the site, but we already have some live links and news, and I encourage everyone to check it out! We try to keep ROM files so as to avert the dreaded 404 dead link, and our goal is to update often and keep up with the developers and their ROM releases.
You can find out more about this project at Mecha Centre and contact us with any questions, comments, suggestions, etc. via [email protected]
Thanks guys! Long live Thunderbolt!

Nice to see someone wants to continue but there are quite a few of these small starter sites now, i remember a few months ago when someone brought out their own as well, don't know what happened to it.. but I'm all for having a "good" rom mirror for all the old roms that seems to have no working links now.
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk 2

I didn't know this has been done before... Well Mecha Centre isn't going anywhere, especially since the site is free to host, I plan on keeping this repository available so long as people actually have Thunderbolts and use the site once in a while.
Thanks for the comment!

Well, I haven't been on in a few days, but I know there are a lot of ROMs still missing from Mecha Centre, I've flashed several ROMs over the past few days to help sort of distinguish one ROM from the other and help out newbies with ROM selection. With that in mind, I also plan to add screenshots, the way it looks now, I'm seeing one page per ROM to really get in the details.
I am also considering toning down the Ads a lot, not a little, a lot; I've made less than a quarter with it in the past few days, I don't see it paying the site's bills for the future. I've added a Donate button, which may or may not work at the present, it's being weird, at least for my test page...
As much as I'd like to add as many ROMs to Mecha Centre as possible- that's kind of the point of the site- many ROMs are virtually identical, I cannot tell you how many ROMs are a devs interpretation of the perfect Sense ROM or the perfect AOSP ROM. So while I plan on getting as many ROMs as possible up, I give priority to the "popular" ones, CM7, Liquid ICS, MIUI, etc.
Anyway good night all!
