Not unless Google releases the sourcecode of honeycomb or Icecream sandwich.

For no particular reason actually, he's just talking out of his well informed arse. If the sources will be released we're very likely to get it. Otherwise if this ends like the Honeycomb pile of crap, horrible and with no public sources, i'll just trash my SGS2 and switch to WP7, never looking back.

As of right now there are no plans for CM8. The next version is to be CM9 (Per Koush)

when will icecream release?

Lol at this thread.
First of all, there is no CM8. It will be CM9 as said above.
Secondly, there are no ETAs. Never. But it is normal to wait a good amount of time between AOSP and the first CM build.

First rule of CM: don't ask for ETA's.

i tot have CM9 ??

1st Rule of Cm
We all know No eta's for CM

This thread is awesome

When it's done....

When its done , it will be ready and bring more than 2 million users to their roms

there isn't a honeycomb source, so not until then

CM8 was reserved for Honeycomb, but as we know the source wasn't released. CM9 will be based off ICS, and the source has been released for both now!
Thanks Google for the early xmas pressie!

ICS confirmed for 19th

Can't wait till the Roms start getting cooked from this
5 more days to release , quite excited to look into its features
I've been doing a little bit of reading any we probably won't see any ICS based ROMs until the Nexus Prime formally releases along with the release of the source code ... Which could be anytime between December and January.
Love it, android is now more and more briliant

Dammit, you might be right, we'll need to wait 2-3 months.
Or, maybe a ROM will leak before launch, maybe they even release the Nexus Prime by OCTOBER End (to counter iPhone 4S) Or better, google may be kind enough to release the source code before Nexus Prime (Eric said ICS was due october/november)
Considering that the OEM's & Google have agreed for a 18 month time line in providing updates to their devices.... the Desire S eventually will get the official ICS - OTA. . . .although we'll already have Custom ROM's from our dev's (proxuser , lowveld , mdeejay, etc ...) with ICS b4 that
3 days to launch...
Oh nice! Hopefully HTC will be fast to release an official update
Well, as soon as the source code is available (wether it is via cyanogen or google) ill do my best to build it from source
tomorrow will be a superb day, can't wait...........yaaaaaaaaaaaa
Ice cream sandwich out today. Waiting for a full lowdown on specs...

@kylon, the new OS has just been revealed today. So i doubt you are going to get a ROM with ICS already!!
But now that the SDK is available, things will be set in motion and soon we'll see the nexus prime ROM port or ROMs with ICS cooked from scratch, depending on how dev friendly the new OS is and what kind of API changes Google has implemented...
As far as Sense ROMs on ICS are concerned, we're a long way from getting there yet till HTC launch a new ICS device. I may be wrong but this is the current picture regarding ICS availability AFAIK...
Ah i thouth it was already relased
So...i ll wait htc

looking at the diff there isn't a whole lot of changes. It shouldn't take long for an aosp rom to be ready, and sense will be ready as soon as either they release a ICS phone or they update opensense.
Um i hope next android will be more powerful
I saw runny rom,there are new useful things,like finally a better browser
Add home screen on sense it s a little stupid,the screens will be 6 anyway.

$50 .. the next 6 months of posts on the general section will be "where ics rom?" "how duz i get ics on fone?" "wen ics comin?" "i copied sdk onto phone, now no boot, wut do?" "HULP FONE NO BOOT, TRIED DUMP ICS ON IT".
etc.

CM9

Do any of our awesome developers plan on working on a cm9 port once source for ics is released?
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using Tapatalk
I bet the real devs here will work on there own roms when source is released instead of kanging cyanogenmod.
I really hope someone will!
Since my SGS II runs with CM7, i'd love to see it on my TF.

I hope there will be a "official" Team for building CM9 for the TF, not a simple Kang.
Why not contribute? I'm not aware of CM's development model but I'm sure they would appreciate help, or say tablets should FO.

Some of the CM devs got TF's so yes, we will most probably get official release in the first wave

It's great news if you have an SGSII, which they released the ICS kernel source to.

Also consider that the International sgs2 uses the Exynos421x processor, where as the sgs4g uses the intrepid-hummingbird S5PC110 processor. Totally different.
7TimesCursed just gave me a tip that will help me move forward with CM7. (something I was hung up on)
CM9 is also still under development. A port would mean a buggy phone.
An ICS port would indeed be better.
After CM7 port is done, I still have plans to rebase our phone specific kernel stuff to the samsung aosp kernel. That my help us port to the 3.0.1 kernel that ICS uses. This is still a ways off, and hopefully by then CM9 will stabilize.
To the future!

i727 ICS source now available

After lurking on Samsung open source for some odd weeks it looks as if the ICS source is available for the at&t galaxy s2 skyrocket.
go here and look for SGH-I727_NA_IC_Opensource.zip. As that is the source.
Bingo, ICS Platform and Kernel source.
We can finally get a tweaked out/more stable build :good:

touchwiz or aosp roms will benefit from this. This is the floodgates to lots of **** coming now. Most importantly though, I would expect us to go RC on CM9 very soon now.
Clarification
Well, reading the posts it seems there is general lack of understanding of the Android Kernel source tree. First of all if you look at all the Celox source tree released by Samsung (Kernel) there are all based of AOSP 3.0.8. This is little bit too late . Samsung already had the Celox sources released with SHV-E110S and T-989 last month. All the proper drivers for the SGH-I727 bit are already there in that kernel source.
I doubt, I will find any difference if at all there is any in this new source. (BTW, if people who have not developed kernels Sammy sources that they release are as ****ty as it gets, they NEVER release the manufacturing source, tell me I had to fix a crap load of stuff).
As far as Cymbaline, the source is now so far merged with upstream kernel sources (which is what one does, anyways) that it would be pointless for me to even consider starting with these source. And all those useless govs, bln, oc/uc tweaks are already there in my source tree ..And anyone who is making to attempt those will need to do it exactly the same places ....

On official I doubt its got that bug its likely that if its not an issue in ics official rom then its not an issue in ics based recoveries built using official source as they use the same kernel just saying

ics and jb min requirments

okey guys this is a question bugging me what are the exact requirments for ice cream sandwitch and jelly bean
i know that most devices with ics will be compatible with jb too but what are the exact min requirments on which it will be stable
Check the forums for the ROM and it should say. But you need to have a supported phone, something like a g1 would probably not be supported
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda app-developers app
G1 actually supports ICS and there is at least 1 active dev working on JB for D/S.
Anything can technically support it.. it's just a matter if it has good enough hardware to run it as well as it is advertised.

Do you have a link for that? I own a G1 and am running CM 7.2. I'm thinking i'll install cm9 when its stable but if there is a ICS mod i'd give that a try

It'll run on virtually anything. The HTC Desire C comes with ICS as stock and it runs it fine.

Don't. There's a video of it on YouTube, and it is so laggy I don't see how anyone could bear it. Also, screen rotation doesn't work (stuck on landscape). Many other bugs as well.
The G1 is dead. That one ICS ROM was its final breath. There will be no stable CM9, where did youu get that from?

Lol, that was jcarzz's port (wasn't even compiled from source with the correct libs).
There's a CM9 rom (compiled from source) that's pretty stable, but with a few integral things not working.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1647493

Some hardware differences (mt3g has larger nand partition, no kb) but basically the same.. They can even interchange radios and spl's.
