[Q] ICS source released

http://www.androidcentral.com/ice-cream-sandwich-source-code-now-being-pushed-git-servers
Question about the process.
So if you have source available what does it take to adopt for Infuse? Is it a huge endavour and might never happen or it's something feasable?

I fear we would need some help from Samsung for a relatively working port to be possible, please correct me if I am wrong though. If it was possible it would probably be along the lines of CM7 as in there would still be Bluetooth issues and such because of our unique hardware. I love my Infuse and hope we can get a semi working port, but I will probably be jumping ship when devices start rolling out with ICS.

At a minimum:
1. Get AOSP working with our bootloaders.
2. Get our drivers integrated into the source.
3. Get the kernel configured correctly.
There are going to be other issues to consider as well. For example, the ICS launcher is hardware accelerated. Depending on how other implement it our hardware might not be able to handle it.
Just as an example: compiling the ICS launcher from scratch at the GB 2.3.3 level produces over 800 errors. I've narrowed most of them down to the HA features of the ICS API. Google has released a "support package" to help with development, but I don't know how much it is going to help because it hasn't finished downloading yet

The Infuse can definitly handle it, its just the probability is becoming zero, the Infuse is being sold for 1 penny online now. I am pretty sure they are in the first stages of getting rid of our infuse from the market.

correct me if I'm wrong, but there has been no action on Samsung/AT&T related to I997 since its release, and in a matter of few weeks it flew from $ 200 to free/$0.01, weird way of doing business

But the HTC hero is getting ics ported to it right now as we speak...isn't that cool...:-/

ICS to Hit Plus in Q2?

If this is to be believed, ICS won't be coming to our beloved Plus for a couple of more months.

Knowing Samsung one thing's for sure... It will be released 1-2 quarters after the announced release date.
Besides, they have near zero incentive to release ICS for the 7+... The longer they wait, the better the Gtab 2 with ICS already on it will sell.
I wouldn't be surprised if they cancelled it altogether, really.

Want ICS on SGH-i997? Emailing Samsung wouldn't hurt.

Though I may or may not make Samsung change its mind and release an official ICS update, there's no harm done with emailing Samsung about your disappointment that they've basically stopped giving full support to a device less than a year old.
On a blog post, they listed a number of devices that are getting ICS updates, namely the Galaxy R, Galaxy II, and the Galaxy note, along with a few tablet models.
Though the Infuse is older than all these models, it is still only older by a few months, and is still well under a year old. Still, it was only officially revealed in May, close to the date of the Infuse's release, so this might be a good enough (perhaps even valid) excuse for why it is not getting an official upgrade.
Why is an official upgrade so important? Because it's the easiest way that we'll see modified ICS ROMs in the future. Without it, an Infuse ICS ROM is uncertain.
I wrote to them that I liked the SGH-i997 quite a bit, but also that I would not consider buying Samsung products in the future if they drop support for them so quickly. (A better way to have state it may have been "abandon their products and their users after less than a year.") I added that I hope Samsung would reconsider in light of customer feedback and thanked them for their time.
So like I said: it probably won't change a thing, but there's no way it could hurt to apply a bit of pressure.

The infuse is having a hard enough time getting official gingerbread. Good luck with that. Its a waste of time worrying about it.

That's not true at all. ICS runs just fine on the Galaxy S, and it only has 384MB of usable RAM since 128MB of it is used as VRAM.

Samsung is never going to release an ICS update for the infuse. Sad, but true.

A better idea would be to post a comment asking for a list of products that they intend to provide quality software support longer than they have the Infuse, so in the future we'd know which one to purchase and which to avoid.

LOL. Galaxy S line.... Means that it will be the products that will get most attention, as they are part of a line. Does not mean that they will ALL get priority but usually will.
and another thing. has nobody thought of the fact that the Rogers infuse launched with gingerbread. meaning it will most likely get an update to ICS?

My bad Dman I though it would be 1 of those typical phones like my Blackberry. My Blackberry was told it would get the latest and baddest Update, but then later on RIM told us the device was basically a piece of **** and that it didn't have enough ram to run the OS and all the applications. Thanks for clarifying that up, Just noticed Galaxy S was the only phone getting ICS with low ram. Samsung probably had enough trouble getting ICS for the Galaxy S and probably figure it's impossible for the Infuse to ever see it due to all the issues with GB.

yup. need a kernel and branch build from cm9 or port.
512mb ram is not an issue...there are several other devices out there w/ 512. the fat has to be trimmed like d said
imo, aside from the "just so i can have it", gb runs just fine on the infuse.
edit: I wonder if we can get moderator to sticky a line like: "THERE IS NO [email protected]#$% ICS ON THE INFUSE" so we won't be getting this every week or so. The ([email protected]#$%) is optional.

Well... When the Galaxy 7.7 Tab for Verizon (which uses the same radio as the Charge) gets updated to ICS, the devs may be able to use the RIL to get data working on CM9. If that happens, then we may see Jelly Bean in the form of CM9.1. So, it's still possible. It just won't be an OTA.

We don't have a roadmap for ICS yet, so I believe the timetable for JB is pretty much "HAHAHAHA".

The Charge will see Jelly Bean when the moon has an atmosphere and is ready for settlement...

So does that mean Dwitherell is the only developer we have left? We're stuck with the PB&J 0524 kernel? It's a good thing my phone is running good.
The US high courts have banned sales of the Nexus due to patent squabbles with Apple. Next Apple will probably go after the Galaxy SIII. I guess we should all just give up and go get ourselves an iPhone.

I agree. It really seems like the basis for some of these injunctions are as generic as patenting a keyboard as "a horizontal surface with the letters and numbers arranged in an arbitrary fashion with the purpose of providing an input to a software system". Maybe there is more to it than I realize, but I don't understand how some of these things hold up.
I mean, wasn't one of Apple's complaints with Touchwiz the square icons?
It wouldn't be so maddening if it weren't so hypocritical. Look at ios 4, 5, and 6 and compare them to Froyo
ios 4: Look, now you have folders and multitasking. Aren't we innovative?
ios 5: Look at our game changing notifications bar, wireless syncing, and voice commands! You can even share items from other apps on Twitter and Twitter only!
ios 6: Now you can share things on Facebook too! INNOVATION!
I mean, I don't care that Apple incorporates solid features into their phones just like I don't care if/when Android incorporates solid ios features into the OS. But the hypocrisy to be like (read this in the comic book guy from The Simpson's voice) "we're all innovative and stuff and you guys are just stealing our ideas so we're going to sue you" is frustrating.
I don't see how its gone so far as to not be interpreted by the courts as a limiting of competition type scenario, but I don't claim to be well versed enough in the laws to make a real argument about it. My frustrations are largely in principle.

Here's some interesting reading about all the crappy stuff industries and governments do. I've been reading it for a few years now. It's pretty sickening.

from my understanding, IMNUTS primarily developed the kernels for the charge. I have not really heard of anyone else aside from Tonsit (but I haven't heard from Tonsit since his initial release of FP1 PBJ).
Dwith just develops the tweaked ROM, and does a damn good job of that too.
I suspect that if there is a VZW update to the charge, someone will come out of the woodworks with something for us. but otherwise, I'm quite content with tweaked to the point where I'm not even thinking about ICS or Jelly Bean or Key Lime Pie...

[BOUNTY][REACHED]Let's get nitroglycerine33 Eclipse ROM on our s3

The bounty has been reached! Thanks XDA! I'll update the OP when Nitro had a phone.
UPDATE: phone had been purchased and week be doing it Monday, confirmed by hesh.monster
FINAL UPDATE: NITRO JUST GOT HIS S3.... HERE WE GO!
If you haven't heard of Eclipse ROM you've probably been living under a rock. If you have heard of them, then you know of the unmatched stability and speed. Not to mention sheer beauty!
nitroglycerine33 is already working on a ROM for the s3, but doesn't own the device. This limits the testing and work he can do, so we need to get him one! I figure 450 is about the average price for one. So let's set that as a goal, nitro says he's already got 20 towards that goal. His donation link is at the bottom of this post. Please post your donation so I can keep track of the total. All donations are going straight to him and if we get more then what we spend on the device it will stay with him as a donation for his hard work.
Also I just sent 40 so now we're at 60 total only 390 to go! Let's get some Eclipse!

Yes his ROMs are usually similar to AOSP. Even his stock based use a lot of AOSP apps (dialer, gallery, camera, etc). They are oh so sexy, and incredibly stable and his support if the ROM it's unrealistic. If there's a problem he fixes it!

I don't know what happened on the bionic, but I do know that his ROM was great for both the RAZR and charge. He also doesn't release a ROM that isn't stable. He also already has a build for the s3 just needs some bug fixing. Which is hard to do without the phone.

I have never ran or heard of your roms (not trying to bash) but I donate to devs that get the device themselves and then show us their skills... I have a hard time donating to someone that should be able to get the phone somehow...? I am living on a set income but found a way to get this device because I love new tech but the comment above makes me think that you think your entitled to a G3 cause your a good dev that needs one (which I don't doubt).. Just sayin... Your work is hugely appreciated but you can find ways of getting the device yourself and then if your that good at what you do then your S3 will be paid for VERY quickly! Once again... Not trying to flame in ANY way shape or form... I would donate in a heartbeat if your roms are as good as people say but you just gotta get that S3 like a bunch of other devs have done on their own.

Unfortunately, most people don't bother to donate to a dev so on top of the time they invest in making the ROM they are also buying these devices. Nitro is a great dev and this bounty was set up because I and others want his work to come to the s3 NOT because nitro just wants a new phone. He already has many other devices he works on and bought himself. So I appreciate your view and agree IF it actually worked that way were people took care of there Devs but it doesn't.

Like I said I would NEVER bash a dev cause they MAKE this community what it is!! I donate to at least 2 devs a month and $10 at the very least... It's to bad others don't do the same... Granted it is a hobby for most devs that they LOVE doing but they also get treated like crap and people think that the dev owes them a fix right now!!! LOL That's not the case... I hope nitro does get a G3!! :good:

I dunno man, a bunch of people bought him a Bionic and he never did **** with it. Kept saying he was gonna make an ICS Eclipse ROM but always had a story about how he was waiting for OTA. He could/should have built it on the leaks but he didn't. He was more focused on other devices. Just food for thought.

You're an idiot.
Mods, I'll take my punishment now.

The guys got two kids, a wife, and a full-time job. Additionally, he's never abandoned a device, even when he's running something else. Heard of the X2? He saved it. He doesn't make it a habit to build off leaks, as many devs do. Want to know why? Because stability is his number one concern. This guy builds for YOU while he is working, or in between diaper changes.
What have you done for android? Besides make yourself look like an ass in here?
How many one man teams do you know that does that? Huh? Anyone? Exactly. People like you don't deserve to have fancy, fun devices. Go get an iPhone and take your ****ty, ungrateful attitude somewhere else. Or build something yourself.
See you guys in a week or so. I'll take a ban to defend a stand up dev/person.
Peace.

I had the bionic and ran his rom. damn right he made it great. why build off of a leak anyway. the leaks were coming so fast it was crazy. imagine having to start over every time. its called time management. building off of leaks seems like a good idea till you do it (I tried and failed miserably. but got a new phone out of it) I would suspect that you were not one of the ones that donated for the bionic because you did not say a bunch of "us ".so why is it any skin off of your back? thanks for the x and bionic Rome can't wait to run the gs3 version.

Right on wolf you said it
