[Q] CM9 for A510 - Acer Iconia A700 and A510

Hi,
This forum is not supposed to accept questions but I didn't find any other forum specific to the A510.
From other thread I see that there is already work on progress for havin CM9 on Iconia up to A500.
Anyone knows of plans for having CM9 on the A510?
Thanks in advance.

that would be great to have a basic ICS, without any implementation of acer stuff !
i don't think there are currently any dev it.

oh yes, that would be great. they're working on a jelly bean release for the a500, but atm there's no developing for our a 510/511 :-(

does anyone know how to propose to integrate the A510/A511 in the cm-work? any offical suggest-page or something?

at the beginning i was debating between the a510 and tf300, and i chose the a510 because it was better in a lot of things. they both got released around the same time (a week apart). but when it comes to android development the a510 gets no love, the tf300 has several ICS custom roms and a couple JB previews. it makes me sad but i still believe the a510 is the better tablet. what makes it even worth is that the older model a500 is getting JB.

SGS2 - CM10 | Iconia A511 - Stock

I've asked this question in the CM's forum, but got no really feedback http://goo.gl/BxSt4

there is an alpha for the a700: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1806980

This thread is about CM9 and the alpha for the A700 is an inofficial CM10.

yeah, i know. but atm we could gather any cm-info in one thread your right,in future we should differentiate.
SGS2 - CM10 | Iconia A511 - Stock

The universal question to "why no CM on X device" is that no interested developers have the device. CM is a community project where interested developers with the device want to port CM on to it, enjoying the process, however, CM developers don't just go out and buy a device just because users want it supported because well... they do cost money. It's their hobby, not their job

Hmm...so I was right. It can be ported.
Jelly Bean ported to HTC One X http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1737736
I hope so.
I'm not a Developer, but I hope so :good:
nothing will be done until the source code is released (google said mid july)
Guys, chill. It is best we wait until ics is fully developed with the kernel 3.x before we talk about this. I am sure that this needs ICS as base. I have been researching about this jellybean update the whole day. it is somewhat a small update to the ICS with automatic widget resizing, GoogleVoice (commandable just like siri) and also less lag... this is just like a froyo to gingerbread update as they said in vid reviews.
now our future is on the 3.X kernel:good:
Hi
Did anyone noticed that kernel for jelly bean port on HTC one x.
It is 2.6.xxx

No, but I am
Thread moved and cleaned. Development section is only for roms/kernels, etc. being worked on with some kind of bootable image. This is not. (First hint was the title ends in a question mark)
Keep it polite guys.

I'm not a developer and i don't know how to port a ROM. However, I think porting an I9000 Jellybean Rom will be easier since I9000 and I9003 has similar specs.:laugh:

i9003 will follow, once kernel 3.0 + ics is completely ported and good for day-to-day basis ^^
Everytime it happens that when we work on perticular version of cynogenmod then suddenly new version of galaxy device releases or new version of android releases then current development looks old to us. So we leave it in incomplete stage & we move forward to achieve new things of new cynogenmod but again everytime same story repeats & thats why we have so many incomplete cyanogenmod roms.
I want to suggest that if the developers are working on ICS cm9 then they must work on first to achieve kernel 3.0 & get stable cm9. People now should not rush to achieve JB leaving behing cm9 work incomplete. "One time one task"

Source code of jelly bean is of no use for us until we get kernel 3.0. Because building jelly bean rom or cm10 based on 2.x kernel is again a waste of time & again one more incomplete rom

You're right on that one bro.
Regarding porting Jelly Bean, it's another challenge for our great developers. And it is possible since it has already started coming on many devices. Another point is that JB does not introduce System level changes like ICS but a major update over it. So JB should easier than ICS.
Regarding Incomplete ROMs, each and every developer has his own set of skills and can't do what other can do and we must respect this. What dhiru can do is not necessarily doable by others too. But this should not come as deterrent for some quality work like MIUI and AOKP. If we would have kept waiting for 'Perfect and Complete' ICS then we would never have these great ROMs. These guys are working within known limitations and doing a great job. So i would always encourage new challenges, innovations, ideas, development and ROMs. We again might have many things not working on JB Ports but that's what fuel the developers to take up challenge and win it. Remember the first ICS and MIUI Ports ? And look today Thankfully Lolation, Frank, UT36104, Vurrut did not get discouraged by current limitations and went on to port these great ROMs and fix bugs. Thank You guys
Take every new thing as a challenge and give your best with whatever you have in hand instead of crying of what's not there or what will come someday
Good Day guys

I completely agree. People learn by doing hands on, and what I mean is building roms. Discouraging them just because you want them to complete a rom is very selfish, everybody has to start somewhere. Not everybody has sufficient knowledge in android programming to help with completing roms, i believe people feel a sense of accomplishment after building their first rom, only to be struck down by others that want a complete rom. I just want to say guys, don't discourage new roms please, think about other people's feelings. Thanks.
Cheers

Its not about discouraging new rom development. Its about how well we concentrate on each thing to complete it. I am not saying that we should stuck to only one perticular rom development. But remember guys that google will not take a pause for us so that we can complete current cynogenmod rom. New versions of android will contineously come out by google but we must have to think whether we should run behind new roms or should we first build a base kernel 3.x without which every future development will remain incomplete...???

There are some very nice and stable ICS ROMs for the A501. There is also a stable, but not quite complete Jelly Bean ROM which I am running. (JB 4.1.2) The two best places to get an ICS ROM and support is Moscow Desire's Evil Alex ROM (hosted on xda), which I understand is based on the stock Acer ICS ROM... however, you will need to upgrade your bootloader to an ICS bootloader. That can be scary for someone new to flashing. An alternative is TegraOwner's ROMs built by Thor and Digitex, which can run with your current Honeycomb bootloader or a custome ICS bootloader, if you wish.
I used to ron Moscow Desire's 3.2 ROM which was very nice. I never have tried his ICS ROMs. I pretty much stick with the TegraOwner's ROMs now because they are well fast, feature packed, stable, and well supported. If you want to run one of Thor's ROMs, you will need to upgrade your CWM Recovery to Touch Recovery v1.7.3. You can find this and all of Thor's stuff on the TegraOwner's site, as well as a lot of support in the forums at forums.tegraowners.com
The final and most stable ICS ROM for the Acer A500/A501 is the TegraOwners ICS v170. If you would like the newer Jelly Bean ROM based on CyanogenMod 10 and Thor and Digitex custom kernel, you can it and support here: forum.tegraowners.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=680
(You'll have to copy/paste the links into your browser since xda is preventing me from creating links due to my low post count)
The Jelly Bean ROM is real fast and stable. They are still working on gps, hdmi, and a few smaller issues. They will get them ironed out soon. Hope this helps.

[Q] A Chance for Android 4.2 on our XOOM

Hey guys,
maybe you know it but Google announced that the Motorola Xoom doesn´t get Android 4.2 official.
But do you think it´s possible to port a rom from the Nexus 10?
Is there still a chance for android 4.2 on our xoom?
Greetings Marcel :cyclops:
There are plenty of threads on this. Head on over to the General section.
CM has promised additional development for the Xoom using 4.2 among others. it is not dead yet!!
team eos
As long as they can get it under 236mb on the system partition it's completely doable. However this thread is totally unnecessary since it's already being discussed in depth.

With EOS gone whats next

for Xoom roms
Look in the development forum.
There are some issues with partition size that will have to be overcome to get 4.3 or 4.4 on the Xoom.
Bigrushdog, who was one of the main developers of EOS, posted recently about a 4.3 experimental build.
I just want something stable, I cant say Im going to be paying attention to updating new versions. At this point I dont even care if its rooted any more just want it to work the way its supposed to.

[Q] KitKat 4.4 on tf101

Does anyone know if anyone is working on a 4.4 ROM for the tf101? I hope there is someone, I really want to see how well the tf101 runs on it.

TimDuru was working on it but ran into some snags, so he shelved the 4.4 development while he fine-tuned his excellent 4.3 Rom (even more).
I was thinking about giving it a shot with OmniROM sources, but haven't quite got everything prepared yet to get there. I'm currently using OmniROM 4.4 sources to build TWRP for our devices, but it will require either separate device and kernel trees for a full ROM build or at least some tweaks to keep the 2 separated. If I come up with anything I'll post it.
