Hey, i heard that there was a new honeycomb rom going around the web for the nook color. It is said to be a preview of the real honeycomb, but i wanted to make sure if it wasn´t usefull for us??. This because i see developers like cyanogen mod and vegan going to gingerbread when honeycomb is already around.
Anyone knew this?
Havent seen any update from our beloved developers and i think it is because gingerbread. Wouldnt it be better to start working on honeycomb(tablet specialized software) instead??
Is this rom real(really a honeycomb rom), or is it just an adaptation?
Any ideas?
Here is the official link. XD

is it possible to install it from clockward mod??, i want to install it just for fun and see what happens.
That ROM was built from a preview SDK. When the Xoom hits the market the developers will finally have something fully baked to work with. Trust me, these developers are looking to the future and preparing for Honeycomb, but they're waiting for an official ROM to work off of.

And as to your question about whether or not this particular ROM will run on your G Tab... definitely not.

So we have source, correct? Is anyone working on compiling a GingerBread rom for the g-tablet? I have compiled kernels for my iphone (idroid - android rom for the iphone) but I am not sure if I would be of any help. I would love to see a vanilla/pure ASOP Gingerbread running on the g-tablet.

Bekit is currently working on the system portion of it with the main limiting factor being a change in how GB addresses sensors and having no insight into the nvidia libraries. Jump into IRC if you think you could help out with the kernel.
I did put together a very stock like GB themed build if you want to check it out: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=853310
Ok since I am new to this forum it would not let me post where I wanted to so here goes. I have a Motorola milestone think that model number is a 853 not sure. Anyway it looks just like Droid 1. This is the USA model with GSM. Looking for rom updates running 2.1 right now. I have rooted with z4root,have milestone overclocker, superuser, rom manager, not sure what all else. If anyone can help I would be greatfull. All that I can find is for non USA milestones. Thank you
CM9 for the Milestone
android.doshaska.net/cm7
CM9 for the Milestone as well, awesome stuffs.
PS: 7.1 is stable, and can be installed from standard 2.1/2.
I just passed my Milestone running CM7.2 RC1 to my girlfriend. It runs great.
Usually when you got a new Android-powered device, things to look are rooting it, flashing cooked ROMs, switching to a new launcher, installing relevant apps to your needs from Google Play and finally, customising the system appearance by adding widgets and applying custom icon packs.
Have fun!
Is it possible to install a custom ROM on a tablet that is NOT listed on many of the sites listing customs ROMs for cell phones or on the app ROM Manager list? Is there a way to compare a cell phone ROM (native OS?) with a tablet ROM?
Is there a way to install Android 2.2 (Froyo) on a tablet running 2.1 (Eclair) w/out installing a custom ROM?

You can't install a cell phone rom on a tablet. If you do.. then something bad will happen. You would probably have to wait for the official froyo update for your tablet since you wouldn't want a custom one. If you did, then you could get froyo the unofficial way. And for the cell phone rom.. you would have to be a developer/hacker to modify it (key mapping, resolution, etc.) and customize it to make it able to run on your tablet.
Ugh. Wished I'd have asked two days ago! Wasted hours stumbling around websites. No hope of an official update for the SmartQ T7.
What do you mean, ..."get Froyo the unofficial way"?
Oh, and thanks for saving me more hours and a bricked tablet.

Glad I helped. Anyways by getting it the unofficial way, is to get a custom built rom from a developer, but the bad news is that your device is not a category around here so no developer would publicly make a custom rom for it here.
I was reading some posts about honeycomb on adam and saw that there bootloader was the same as the 1.2 gtab so kernels are interchangeable! this is very helpful getting hc stable on our tabs!So im asking all the great xda devs to maybe migrate your builds to 1.2. Its the future of gtab since viewsonic doesnt want to grace us with sourcecode Norton has and bringing us gingerbread! The only way to make this work on the g is to start using the 1.2 bootloader!! Please make the G the best tablet it can be!!! Thank you hardware acceleration anybody!! there are CIFS/NTFS/OC support kernels avaliable for 1.2 bootloader now from pershoot.his zpad new bootlader kernel! I forgot zpad is now using thye new 1.2 bootloader now also!!!

There are some very nice and stable ICS ROMs for the A501. There is also a stable, but not quite complete Jelly Bean ROM which I am running. (JB 4.1.2) The two best places to get an ICS ROM and support is Moscow Desire's Evil Alex ROM (hosted on xda), which I understand is based on the stock Acer ICS ROM... however, you will need to upgrade your bootloader to an ICS bootloader. That can be scary for someone new to flashing. An alternative is TegraOwner's ROMs built by Thor and Digitex, which can run with your current Honeycomb bootloader or a custome ICS bootloader, if you wish.
I used to ron Moscow Desire's 3.2 ROM which was very nice. I never have tried his ICS ROMs. I pretty much stick with the TegraOwner's ROMs now because they are well fast, feature packed, stable, and well supported. If you want to run one of Thor's ROMs, you will need to upgrade your CWM Recovery to Touch Recovery v1.7.3. You can find this and all of Thor's stuff on the TegraOwner's site, as well as a lot of support in the forums at forums.tegraowners.com
The final and most stable ICS ROM for the Acer A500/A501 is the TegraOwners ICS v170. If you would like the newer Jelly Bean ROM based on CyanogenMod 10 and Thor and Digitex custom kernel, you can it and support here: forum.tegraowners.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=680
(You'll have to copy/paste the links into your browser since xda is preventing me from creating links due to my low post count)
The Jelly Bean ROM is real fast and stable. They are still working on gps, hdmi, and a few smaller issues. They will get them ironed out soon. Hope this helps.
