MT4G finally gets some good news - myTouch 4G General

http://www.androidcentral.com/htc-says-first-ice-cream-sandwich-updates-coming-march-adds-more-phones-list
According to HTC, the Desire HD is confirmed to get an official ICS OTA! As we all know, the DHD and MT4G have nearly identical hardware and ROMs are very easy to port between the two. The stock DHD ICS ROM would make a perfect (read: fully functional) base for the MT4G. Assuming we still have decent devs in a few months, we should have a very nice ICS ROM.

but we need a Sense ICS kernel... :3
but hopefully they'll be able to port it with a multidevice kernel!

As far as specs, yes. Historically speaking, DHD ROMs do still have to be ported to an extent. However, I would expect a fully working camera will be extremely easy with a DHD dump as a base.

I saw that, but isn't that complete crap? Just seems highly unlikely to me. My bet is HTC doesn't consider it worth it, because the myTouch series of phones has that ugly TMO-customized version of Sense. So they'd put a lot of work in customizing that UI to work on ICS for only two phones, one of which is nearing a year and a half old. I just don't see it happening.

Guess I might just keep my phone.. Sounds good...

TMobile G2X dump

Hi guys, it looks like the G2X will be out at 20th April, but I know that few of you have the device now (for testing purposes, etc.).
Would you mind taking some time, and sharing with us dump of /system and boot partitions?
Thanks in advance

I really hope the G2X Vanilla ROM does not have the same lags as the optimized O2X ROM from MoDaCo.
Well, MoDaCo Rom is much much better than original. But just try to add a widget - Why the hell does it take so long to show the whole list...? On my Desire it appears immediately...

Its definitely a ROM problem,
In the past T-Mobile's ROM's have been decent, very lightweight and fast, and i would expect nothing less this time.
I still think the G2 ROM is one of the best Froyo ROM's out there

@JupiterDroid: Good to see you here mate! Good you trade the HTC Desire HD in for a LG Optimus 2X, or didnt you?
I'd love to know if the G2X firmware can be run on the regular 2X. The thought of running the LG firmware isn't all that appealing
(I haven't actually received my phone yet)
I already ordered the g2x, and it should be here in a few days. If its not posted til then, ill put up a system dump. I just hope the roms between the two devices are interchangeable

Am hoping the ROMs will be fully interchangeable between the devices.
Otherwise, I may stay with the stock ROM for awhile - of course, after rooting, flashing recovery, and freezing unwanted apps with titanium. And maybe an overclock kernel (if compatible).
Since it should be an open device, I don't think it will be long before XDA ports a 2.3 ROM for it.

AOSP for Desire S

i did start this thread in the general section when i had fewer than 10 posts, so sorry about the repost.
i have been wondering if any work has been done porting aosp to the desire s or if anyone could point me to the proper tutorials on how to do it, though i will have little time to work on it during the next 3 months or so.

NexuS has pretty same hardware. Even better cam..
I sold NexuS because I missed some of the sense things:
the stock dialer has NO t9 search - most dialer from market are crap or slow or somehow frickled on the stock dialer. Even old nokia do have a quick search option...
Stock contacts are ugly.
GAL (global adress list for exchange server) is NOT implemented in android 2.x - only in 3.0; but it's implemented since sense1 (hero)
CM had some issues - espacially with the notification bar/speed settings - on 2.3 - the new sense 3.0 lockscreen and notification bar are very good - so no need for CM at the moment - for _me_
So I deleted most of sense.apk from /system on my DesireS (all widgets, all "htc", like route66, amazon, stockexchange..) and do use adw-launcher instead of rosie (don't delete it cause is needed for lockscreen settings!) - but do have integrated company exchange and a good biult in dialer, cool contacts (with flickr and fb content) and nice lockscreen..

Sense is THE BEST ANDROID UI, EVAR. Don't know why people wanna "DE-SENSE" their phones. I'm gonna flash CM7 to see what the fuss is about , but sense 3.0 first Hopefully, the new official version of CM7 will come for DS too. I'd rather let the ports pass on...........

There's plenty of HTC phones out there that are running custom ROMs and customised user interfaces that don't rely on Sense. It may be the "out of the box experience" as far as most HTC phones are concerned, but isn't that what all THIS (ie these forums) is about - customisations, and thinking "out of the box"? (no pun intended, haha).
If we all concentrated on Sense and variations on that theme then this community would be a much poorer one.
Peace
sense ftw!
Well, i love sense, but i am porting the cm7 just so people have the choose, and also to make the development on this device more alive
But personally, Sense is the thing!

Is Ice Cream Sandwich for HTC?

I know ICS hasn't been released yet, but HTC runs a different OS then the ones with Gingerbread so are they gonna release it for HTC Inspire to?
Hope so cause i would like to check it out.

Listen up pal, lemme help ya a bit.... (To be honest, re-reading your post, and again reading, I can't make heads or tails of what your asking. Will ICS be an available base for Inspire Devs to work with? Is that closer to what your suggesting, or asking?)
When the Inspire was released it was running Froyo, and when GB leaked the Devs with thier almighty wizardry developed a Rom(s) based on GB that could be flashed on rooted phones. Then HTC provided OTA updates for folks not rooted, which in turn gave most (all) Inspire users a Gingerbread based Sense Rom. Now that may not be all perfectly explained, but maybe it will help you to reassess how your question or statement is asked.....
Check this out. Opened a new Tab - Googled Ice Cream Shop Android and there it was.
Google wants ICS rolling out soon to compete with Apple - and it will be an available upgrade for existing smartphone users capable of running 2.3 (or 2.2 don't remember) They want all capable Android devices to be able to integrate with this new OS. SO my bet is this, once it drops those wacky wizards will be all over it - and a rooted user will see it before HTC pushes it out OTA
Edit: Your not grasping this the right way mate, so let me sum it up better. It's not a question (referring to thread title) of is ICS for HTC. ICS is an Android OS, which means its for Android powered devices. HTC, Samsung, Motorola, etc will use ICS for thier newest ANDROID powered devices, following that will probably be the dev versions, then official OTAs will follow - HOPEfully. Damn. That was tough........ ....... ...... .......
Sorry for the confusing question.
In other words, you're saying that all android phones (Running Sense or other OS) will be updated ICS?

Lol, no apology necessary bud, but please don't be offended when I say you really should read a little something or other (Google "What is HTC Sense UI") to better inform yourself about your Phone. One last try bud - here we go. Ready?
Android powers your phone. Sense is a UI (user interface) which allows you to navigate through your phones OS or Operating System. Think of it like this bud - if Google is your car - Sense is the steering wheel. So if you go and buy another Inspire, The O.S. will be Gingerbread, How you will tell the OS what to do next, will be Sense. If that doesn't answer anything - then its someone else's turn...

I was just asking your opinion on this and my battery died. They said ICS would support devices less than a year old. So we know the Devs will get thier hands on it, but it might be in HTCs interest to upgrade as Google is wanting a multi-device compatibility and interaction like iPhone, IPad, etc.... What I hope doesn't happen is HTC holding out an Update solely to encourage upgrading.

Well if he does, and it works, then i'll start a ROM based from it.
I dont know much *(or anything) about programming and so on. but this entire fragmentation way of doing things, where each company needs to have their own team and we all need to wait for the release of google's latest, is just plain annoying.
At the mercy of a company that already sold you their device? that's not smart. Google should hold all SC (or drivers, or whatever U call these) and release them to all public and all phones at the same time.
But what am I BSing about?!
THANKS
Well I have managed to port 4.0.3 to my g2x but still can't get sound and cam right like the other builds. But some things ive found improvements on. Since my g2x is just a play toy for me I don't care about camera but without sound its useless. Im still messing with it but put it to the back burner for now because I'm highly frustrated with it.

Cyanogen stated that they got sound to work, they just can't get the cam to work.
Also that one guy doing the 20 people beta for his ics rom claims he also got everything to work except the camera.

Word on my contacts is the last bits we're waiting on a code release from LG which will come only when an official ICS Rom comes down the pipe for the p990 or p999.... those on the ICS CM9 team working on the o2x/g2x team tell me they'll be able to adapt what they need from o2x even if g2x doesn't get an official release, though we'll have to wait and see.

While were waiting you should start thinking of clever names

So you were an ICS beta tester... and then you took an arrow to the knee?

This made me grin.
the lack of an ICS rom for my G2x is making me wish i bought a sensation. however, i've been having nothing but trouble flashing the new firmware for my gf's sensation, thus i can't even use the ICS roms. i just gotta be patient.

The only reason I avoided the Sensation was the price difference, hehe. Turns out it had its own set of problems like the G2x. Seems to me ICS is forthcoming with no set timetable by the devs.

Oops and sorry

Maybe this isn't the thread for this but before I start releasing a few roms I want to apologize for the whole kanging thing. I was having a bad day and saw no one give me credit for my work even though as someone pointed out we all kang one another, we kang HTC we kang. Just have to be sure to give credit. Please don't thank this post, this isn't me trying to get extra thanks, just more of trying to get the community to accept me before anything I release gets flamed. Thanks

All good chief, I just act like nothing ever happened, all 4 of us was in the wrong! So I don't think there is need to apologize to the whole community. They didn't and won't

Sometimes people become too emotionally involved in something for the wrong reasons.
You flipped out here, but this wasn't what was bugging you - no, don't expand on what it was because it's not for any of us to know.
That you came back and apologized for your outburst shows a lot about your character, because you do want to be a part of this and realize that arrogance is the wrong path, so, while I didn't involve myself in any of it and didn't really focus on it, I am glad to see you coming back to play with us.
What you posted before to prompt this apology was a weight dragging the doubleshot community back into the petty mudslinging and hatred this place in particular has worked so hard to bury and grow out of - this isn't some offhand I'm sorry but a recognition of just how counter to the spirit of XDA your actions were.
I accept your apology and hope to see some cool stuff from you when you get the chance, though I am only one person and wouldn't presume to speak for the community .
----
@ strapped - I resent that you paint the whole community as complicit of the actions or attitudes of a few, I can't think of a way I've wronged either of you, in fact worked on trying to help the both of you out - when you say community you mean all of us.
Don't take that as a personal shot, just put your emotions aside and consider what you're saying. Give JKilo a chance here and don't provoke a negatived response - some won't point it out but fire back and then this thread and it's intentions are poisoned.
Let's all make the effort to rise above the vile hatred this small corner of the internet tried to force on everyone in it back in october-ish, we've come a long way to rising above it with some very deliberate efforf from a lot of people.

Why is the Doubleshot dying? It needs an offical ICS. What would be nice is Virt. Inq. But based off the a stock DS ICS rom. So we could have TV-Out, and our *****en camera.
I Wish it was a Galaxy Note >:T

Who said it was dying? I think development is really starting to pick up. Have you seen how many devs have come forth in the past few months? Including you as well

Honestly I'm not looking forward to ICS or cm9, neither have impressed me one bit. The AOSP camera is worse than stock IMHO, also the newer Sense ROMS removed carousel which is a joke. So I guess I'm not really happy where HTC is taking things.

I hated that sense carousel! I got rid of that as quick as I could with a launcher.

Well the Sense carousel I'm talking is the full Sense 3.0 from like the Sensation or EVO 3D, not the generic mySense the DoubleShot got tortured with. Even still I love Sense to much to let go of my widgets. I have a PhotoGrid dedicated to my little girl. So no matter where it goes I'm sure to follow in a way
