I was looking at the Vibrant source code and I could not find the source for the music player. I downloaded the firmware source code from Samsung's website but could not find the music app in it. Does anyone know where it is?
Download bloater. Its in most of vibrant roms and its also a paid app in the market. It brings back bloat ware on jfd. Really useful!

He's asking about the source code, not the apk.
AFAIK Samsung has only released what they're obligated to under GPL - ie. the modifications they've made to existing open source software governed by the license. The music player is part of the Touchwiz framework, which is Samsung's proprietary code, and is not open sourced. Similar to HTC only releasing kernel code, and not the code behind Sense.

Maybe we can get gingerbread
I hope so!
what does the source code ususally contain? everything?
With such similar hardware, i am excited to see if anything results from this

After going thru various roms, my best experience has been with cm7, but I REALLY like the file explorer from MIUI. Is there any way to get an apk of that and install it to cm7 (or any rom). Thanks.

from what i have read MIUI is closed source and much of it cannot be ported over to other roms
How can something that is based on open source be closed source?

I doubt it. The MIUI File Explorer depends on proprietary libs, and since it's closed source, it's nearly impossible to rewrite the necessary libs.

The Chinese devs make changes or additions to the source code and don't release them. Yeah, it's probably illegal, but they're in China. There's almost no legal recourse available if someone wanted to sue.
Damn...forgot about the whole closed source thing. What a shame...that app is really slick. I miss MIUI because of it alone. Sticking with cm7, though. The kernels play nicer with cm.

it's not illegal.
HTC does the same thing - you don't have the sources for their Mail or Weather apps, do you ?

Google releases Android's source code through the Apache License.
The Apache License does not require modified versions of the software to be distributed using the same license, so you can make a change to the source code and not have to provide that modified source code to anyone.
The underlying Kernel that Android runs on top of is licensed under the "GNU General Public License version 2" which does require that modification so the source be provided.

Not a bad implementation, wish it included an FTP server service inside, like MIUI. But we cant have everything i suppose!
Devs,
can the version for captivate possibly be ported?

Not without the source code. Rumors have it that the canadian version of our infuse will have gb installed. There should be an official release for us but who knows how long...
another one of these threads?
I'm just saying. I thought we had the source finally?? Or do you mean source for gb

there are sources for i9000 2.3.3 and for the infuse 2.2.1 but the two os's are very different in a few areas, it took months to port 2.3.x from the nexus s with nearely identical hardware to work on the i9000, now we have a diferent gps, different cell radio, different cameras, different screen, mhl and more ram, maybe more. that is alot of drivers to figure out. there is a posibility here but it would be a project that needs attention from an experienced kernel dev or dev team and time. the 2.3.x update will likely be released by the time a rom port is posible, plus a port would likely leave some features missing like mhl, and some features that may be unstable.
These threads are such a drag man. Use the search button before you open another thread please. Ugg ...

can you tell me the difference between AOSP and CAF?

AOSP:
Android is an open-source software stack created for mobile phones and other devices. The Android Open Source Project (AOSP), led by Google, is tasked with the maintenance and further development of Android. Many device manufacturers have brought to market devices running Android, and they are readibly available around the world.
CAF:
The Code Aurora Forum is a mutually beneficial non-profit corporation promoting open source software that enables mobile and wireless ecosystems that rely on wireless internet and cellular technology. This innovative technology is changing rapidly and we are here to help you keep up with the flow.
So, is code aurora also open source?

I apologize if this is the wrong place for this but it seems like it could use some eyes on it. Read about this on a couple sites today. Sounds like a smart app that shuts down background processes to gain battery life. Article: http://www.purdue.edu/newsroom/rele...martphone-battery-drain-from-faulty-apps.html
It looks like the code is available on Github, and can be compiled, they just haven't released an app yet. I would do it myself, but that's way above my pay grade. Here's the Github link: https://github.com/hushnymous
Was just wanting to see if someone could toy around with it. Cheers!

From my understanding it has to be baked into a ROM, it can't be an app.
I'ts a ROM Patch, so we cant use it
My apologies if I was mistaken, I can't remember what site I was reading that said you could compile the code into an app. I guess we'll just have to wait, unless some of the ROM devs get adventurous.
