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!

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!

[Q] ParanoidAndroid?

if ParanoidAndroid is opensource, does that make it easier to build for our hardware?

once we get kernel source, yes

We don't need kernel source to have that. Idk why people think we need source to do everything. The only good thing about kernel source is oc and uv

umm and libs and drivers aren't different between the tegra 3 and Snapdragon S4?

Yes they are but you don't need source. I come from the att note which doesn't have official ics or source and we had pa. Pa is a aosp rom like cm9 and aokp and we have both of those. Which shows kernel source is not needed
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

We don't need kernel source for the initial port, though we probably will to get the port bug free (for example, the CM9 build and multitouch).
I tried downloading the PA source a few days back but it kept erroring out (something about signatures not being trusted or something)
It might just be an SSL error on my PC, I'll have another go at it sometime soon. Seems like an intriguing ROM.

Yea its a cool rom. A team mate ported it to the note and its pretty bug free. I haven't looked at their sources lately but have they released source for pad?

if i can do anything to help please let me know, im more than happy to be a tester and provide bug reports/logcats or whatever. also thanks for the responses!
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

I'm sorry I've looked at paranoid android before and for some reason I was confusing it with Coredroid.
I haz a stupid.
However, kernel source will make building an AOSP kernel much easier. Right now we're using the One S kernel source and while it works for the most part, there are still some niggling issues as can be seen in the AOKP and CM9 threads.
But hell yeah build that thang!

Yea in that aspect source will be great but since the kernel for cm9 seems good it'll work for now. But if any one does do this good luck they put their code everywhere and if you miss one strand it won't work

tips?
if i was possibly considering the idea of maybe taking a stab at this port, anyone have any tips or good reference information? i have a little java experience but am comfortable with the SDK & adb and such.

learn how to build from source first
then learn how to merge cm9 commits into a local clone of paranoidandroid repo
then build it, and upload your device tree to git for others to work on

Learn smali coding it is the work of the devil but that's where most of the code is

right on, thank you gentlemen! ill start digging a bit and see what happens..

the guys over on the one S forums already have a stable build-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1729811
since we share the same chipset could i use their rom as a starting point or i would still have to build from PA source? i really appreciate it guys sorry for my rookieness
also to those of you stateside- happy independence day! go have a beer and a burger

It has been a starting point for our cm9, and miui, and I think aokp also.

hey just to update everyone i have a working pa now ill be testing the next couple hours before release

wow u guys are awesome. i was looking at the s3 forums and im a bit jealous because of the amount of development they seem to have so soon but i love this phone and im glad u guys are doing this for us. wish i could help, if u need any testers lmk.
definitely keeping an eye on this thread, that rom looked sick

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:

Correct me if im wrong but this isnt for AOSP.......so hopefully source helps devs buils a badass AOSP kernel because who likes touchwiz roms??? Haha

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 ....

Um review the code like asap because the brickbug could be in it

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

In the process of making my own aosp based ROM, I've already got boot...just stabilizing it right now...fixing the touch screen, then I'll probably have to fix imei...I'm planing on a release within 2 weeks...probably sooner
