help porting p940 ICS ? - LG Optimus 3D

hello guys, you have read the P940 (lg prada 3) has the same hardware to P920!
someone tries to do a port of the original ICS ICS driver on LG CM9?

Lg para don't have 3d

cm7 don't have 3d ehehe

Sigh. Since Prada ICS is already out and as you mentioned the hardware is almost the same, why not wait 2-3 weeks for the O3D rom to be officially released? It would take nearly that much time to get a stable, working port anyway.

I wish that this was the case but given the fact that they have already missed their Q2 updates on other LG devices I can't see how they will manage to release ours within the scheduled timeframe. 2-3 weeks more like 2-3 months sadly.

It is not unreasonable to take a potshot at 2-3 weeks, at most a month for LG to release the O3D ICS rom, given that Prada and O3D are practically the same other than 3D and perhaps some other chips such as audio, GPS etc (maybe). Besides, they've already stated they're testing the rom now.

I wish I shared your optimism pandaball but every other update for our device has been delayed I see ICS being no different.

Well, I only hopped on the O3D bandwagon after the GB update came out so I don't know if the GB update lagged too. In any case, it remains to be seen

if someone makes the porting I feel happy ... LG will take at least another 4 months to release the rom "maybe"!
CM9 could work with the driver of the P940 ?

I will look forward in to it.
LG is surely gonna release another crappy rom.
the port will prob. be way better.
But i cant do it. Not a dev.
I only know much info about basebands and other stuff.
would be nice if we can make a port on the froyo baseband. no more ghostcalls and awesome aosp speed.
i dont really care about the 3d. i never use it. i know that it's the feature that makes this phone special.
but i dont really care about it.
Hope i can do something for the devs.
maybe thiaiz, meemo23 , pandaball and the other devs can team together?

New one based on the new Italian 2.3.4 LG UI rom. The one I posted was ported from a prototype device made for Tracfone which is essentially identical to the G2X. The LG UI port will take longer, if I can get it working at all.

Maybe LG will give us ICS as a little Christmas present. They also said the o2x will get ICS. I just hope they don't put a custom overlay on that. I just wish ICS will only be completely stock.

The P999 ICS will be stock. The P990 ICS will most likely have the LG UI overlay and colorization.

Another Ventana ICS Phone! (K-Touch W700) Possible Driver Source

http://bbs.k-touch.cn/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=19601&extra=page=1

I had heard this news from the official forum of a chinese smartphone company which is Not a well-known brand named K-touch. The smartphone they produced has a accurate same Tegra2 chip with P990 (Tegra2 AP20H, actually same with P990). And their devlopers had given a good news to the MODERATOR of their official forum, and the moderator is the poster of the link above. The news said that they had begun coding with NVIDIA, and a beta ICS rom for their smartphone would be released at about 3 weeks later.
I think P990 could get the drivers after their beta rom released and the Hardware Acceleration of ICS for P990 could be solved. If so, LG provide ICS upgrade or not is not important.
Forgive me for my poor English. And I hope you guys could understand it.

There's no need for that mate. There are many stupid questions here, but calling someone stupid is just not necessary.
Wouldnt it need NFC as well?
My bad thinking of wallet...
Unfortunately Honeycomb and below is "dead" development, people are focused on doing more on ICS than anything.
When Eclair rolled out, development stopped on Cupcake and Donut, and now its quite hard to imagine someone still working on those old versions of Android. Well, looks like GB, HC, and Froyo is in that boat.
I suggest you get a new phone. (I need one too. I'm still stuck on gingerbread)

There was a Jellybean port to ARM6 devices tested on Galaxy Gio by some guy, Im sure we can make a Google Now port.
Well coming from a jelly beaned phone, you do need an arm7 and unfortunately, your phone doesn't have one. You can try porting it but it will come out with bugs.

I believe Google Now is JellyBean specific. However, it's up to the devs to have it in a flashable zip or apk format for ICS devices.

Ewww...that's disgusting.
But as many people feel, I do not feel that someone will actually take the time to figure out how to do it. Do remember that the framework is VERY different. But I am not losing hope that someone....someone...will take the time and get this working. ICS is not as fast as GB on my phone. However, GNow is enough of a reason for my to flash ICS to my phone every few days.
(OG Evo 4G running Decks ICS - 7.09.12 build flashed with GNow)
So GNow is a ploy to get ppl to just buy new phones, that have ICS or better?
Well that's how I see it, the majority of ppl use gingerbread, why not cater to them gooooooooogle?? Its A shame they keep creating new os's like every year or so when phones last so much longer then that.
Offline dictation should of been available back back well there never should of been a connection dependent voice(voice search, dictation, voice anything from google) or w/e.

Sense UI is really something.. We all know that.. Even i would love to see it in our SGR.. If the developers are interested, i think we can conduct a poll question for this topic.. What do u say guys?
Poll for what my friend? Just read Adam's post. This is a hell lot of work. We might as well port the S2 Official JB ROM before we are even half way through this. As it is Adam has his hands filled with CM, Karthik is resuming AOSP soon, Grarak has multiple ROM's and so has MJ. I suggest we focus on getting stable ROM's rather than a myriad of unstable/unusable ones. Just imagine, all that work and what you get in the end is a Sense Look Alike, half stable that a FEW people MAY/WOULD like to try. Not a good deal I feel.
So d point is we wont get sense

Sense doesnt make sense
No offence to anyone but personally i do not like sense. Hell ! even my friends with htc dont like it cuz it eats resources and battery! Id take CM10 or 10.1 over sense anyday . If we are talking about launchers , I feel the need for a customized version of trebuchet in which there is an option for rearranging icons and making folders in the menu.

U simply cannot port it from SGS2 bro.. Our SGR h/w is entirely different from SGS2.. It aint possible for us to port from other devices.. If we have to port jelly bean, then Samsung have to release a source for us or build jelly bean for us which is highly unlikely..

Why cant we modify stock s2 jb rom or any other stock jb rom and make it compatible with our device.
Tell me why because i dont know anything about porting.
Okay agreed at a point that hardware does not match..it is completely different..
But cant those things be edited so as to make compatible?

Nobody said its impossible. Its just super-difficult. We cannot port official JB for approx the same reason why we couldn't port the official ICS. Samsung implements a completely different set of framework and libraries for each of its devices depending on what its hardware is. If you wanted to port an official Samsung ROM you would have to re-write most of these framework and library files which are hardware dependent, which eventually culminates into a mountain of work. Sound Good?

This is THE BEST EXPLAINATION i could ever get.
So like if 10 or more devs work together on a particular stock rom..then only we can have it all?
Then another question is why would any dev waste time on stock roms when they can make better roms
Bdw it sounds tough..doing must be tougher.
