Are you asking if the G2X will ever get Honeycomb? The answer is no because Honeycomb is for tablets only.
I do expect to see an Ice Cream Sandwich port towards the end of the year...not from official sources...but we have some really good Devs here...
im amazed no one has flamed you yet lol

Just thought I'd put out this link for all to bask in the glory of Android 3.0...here's hoping it gets slapped onto the GTab!!
Actual footage of Honeycomb running on the Motorola Xoom (similar specs as GTab)

That is bad a$$, I can't wait. This should be something to make Apple Fanboys jealous, I just hope it gets ported to our g Tablet. Hey google if you need beta testers I'm willing. :-D

TBH don't see why this couldn't get ported over...and I plan on donating my arse off to the devs that start workin on it for GTab!
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:

Given what they say they are still missing, I'm not so sure, but...

If this is true, i think it needs its own topic and maybe a sticky.

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.
God knows I'm not the smartest of my siblings but..... Is Ice Cream Sandwich basically intended to unify the Android community as a whole? As it should be in my humble opinion.... The way I been reading it, Google is even talking to manufacturers and Carriers to keep everyone "in line" if you would, with their build. So 1+1 does equal 3 right? Or am I reading into it? Just curious.....
I think it would be great if indeed this is so..... Porting a great ROM shouldn't be as difficult right? Or am i still reading into it too much?
Plus, I have a Gtab, well the wife does LOL.... And I get to play with HC and i love that UI and supposedly 2.4 will have a similar UI. Or did I read into that as well? Can you imagine the Sensation with a HC LOOK? SICKWITIT! I am a fan of sense 3.0 BTW, I'm just saying that our devs could crosstalk and tweak the **** out of it even more because everyone would have the same goal, literally, in their sights..... Or did i read into it that much more?
So basically just wondering if anyone has the skinny on this. The EVO 3d has a question but no definite answers so I figured I'd ask for our phone as well. Thanks for being patient with me... I get excited LOL. Good night.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Not sure if legit, or too good to be true.
Edit: This appears to be it. Not bad.
Woo hoo! Lets get the ball rollin!
Can't wait for the first ROM.
And here I thought I was gonna have a scoop for once! Guess I was slow to get the news after all..
I know this is impossible, but I'm going to imagine my Evo will have ICS before the Nexus ships in the US !!

This is the Ice Cream Sandwich source, Honeycomb was 3.xx, unless you were sarcastic?

Yes, been following that. But till now it was just an sdk port, now the real fun can begin.

HC is for tablets why would we want that when we could have ICS.

Isn't that just built from the SDK though? With source out they can do proper ports! I am very optimistic and for me it will be a race between stable ICS on my Evo and a Sprint release of the Galaxy Nexus. At the rate the Gnex is sitting unreleased this may be a legit race.
Anyway, this is more speculation and not really dev discussion so I will bow out before we go even more OT.

Yeah I have yet to try it but I'm sure they will have an update very soon that I'll be jumping on.

Yeah it is just an sdk port but I'm sure they will be porting from source "I hope!" fingers crossed.
I wish I knew how to compile from source , I'm actually trying to learn how.
Lol ok im sure this is false advertising but.wow... apparantly you can order the skyrocket with android 4.0.... lol false advertising or mistake.. what do you guys think.....
I sure hope that's true, then devs would have an ICS Rom for the rest of us
Wouldn't believe it. Many things on the page look misleading. You might just get a skin on it - those guys can make you believe anything.
Lol i dont believe it. Im saying do u guys think they did it on purpose to try and sell more? Or do u think it was a mistake?
Even if it was.. I would not pay $340 for it.. I will wait for the Nexus..
