JB can take all the time in the world. I'm still soaking in ICS. I'm totally satisfied with what our devs have done, and it wouldn't bother me a bit if they didn't mess with JB. There's still a lot of potential to be found with our ICS right now anyways. Just let it go, and if one of them want to do it, they will. Or, you can slide one of them a chunk of cash and tell them what you want, lol.
It doesn't hurt to discuss it. Once people become annoying with requests for JB, then it's a different story.
I wonder how smoothly it actually runs on the SGS.

I wonder how much more we could use the newest platforms.
I mean, it's based on a new and improved code but also is based on the assumption of running on better devices.
ICS is running nicely on our device, but i'm not sure JB will.

I was under the impression that Project Butter indicated the emphasis on performance in JB. So could it be that if (or hopefully when) it gets ported over, it could actually end up being smoother than ICS?

Smoother than ICS. Just got done playing with a test build of CM10 on my other phone(I727). Zero lag and I mean zero. Whether will be able to port it remains to be seen and the ICS ROMS we've gotten over the past month are huge. Still never hurts to discuss it.
@hechoen But then again, the SGS 2 has a dual-core processor. Our hardware may be too outdated.
Just like we were too outdated for ics? Lol

Yea but it runs fine on the nexus s which has nearly 100% of the same hardware. Any device that can run ics can also run jb. It matters more about optimization than hardware specs

Regarding OP
It'll be a little bit.
We're still trying to get ICS under control. We're using a GB kernel (2.6.35.7) modified to work with ICS (ics was designed for 3.0.8). We still have issues with sleep and a number of other issues we have noted on our github.
Granted, we will release a source built Jellybean build at some point and it will be based off of what the Galaxy S & variants device maintainers do, but we are still playing catch up to them on Gingerbread and Ice Cream Sandwich.
I hate giving ETAs, but we'll have something within the next month and a half.

So The Nexus One isn't getting official ICS because it doesn't have enough space on the system partition(speculation as no one officially knows the real reason) but do you think this will be the case for many phones including the Captivate? Would suck if the bottleneck for peoples phones would be “not enough space"
*Get Chance and Luck*
There was a link to an article (unofficial) that said Galaxy S, Nexus S, and something else would get ICS.

The main speculation for why the Nexus One is not getting ICS comes down to two things: ROM storage for the system and the processor speed.
First, the Nexus One only comes equipped with 512MB of ROM. After the system files are installed, it leaves something around 200MB for apps, which is not a lot. ICS is supposed to take even more space than GB, so having something like 50-100MB for user apps would be likely...and unpleasant.
The Galaxy S phones all have 2GB of internal ROM I believe, so I don't think that issue will apply.
Second, the Nexus One has an older 1Ghz "Snapdragon" SoC. Although clocked the same as a Galaxy S phone, it is made with an older design, and performs less work per cycle. According to a few articles I have seen, the "Hummingbird" SoC in the Galaxy S phones has up to 3 times the GPU power of the older "Snapdragon" SoC...and roughly a 30% increase in real world performance.
Given that ICS will have hardware acceleration for 2D drawing, the slower processor (especially slow for GPU type elements) is likely a big hindrance, that again, should not apply to the Galaxy S line.
So keep your fingers crossed for this I guess. I will be! I am confident there will be a working unofficial release, but very doubtful about anything official.

well im running the stock galnetmiui, and it seems stable enough. i cant believe ICS has been available all this time. im gonna try to slip faux123's kernal in now.
If this is it how come CM and others aren't using it to get their cameras working?
galnet is just a framework merge to ICS it doesnt have the ICS APK's, yet that is. im guessing thats why cm team hasnt used the code, cm team is probably using the ics camera APK.
also faux123's ds kernal v 048 is working fine so far.
It doesn't have much of anything from ics except a couple of things it just just has 4.0.3 in the build prop, you can do that with 2.2 builds. I don't even think it has the basics from ics in it. It is not worth the flash IMO. It is a basic miui build with some tiny modifications that are not noticeable again IMO

From what I gathered while on it that was when it first came out, it is a flash over zip you have to install latest miui and them the ics layover (kinda like a theme for 2.3.3) not really though lol. I didn't even notice anything different at all.

So general consensus is no this is not 4.0.1, it's just MIUI with a BS version number.

By that logic, Tsugi has "Some ICS Code" in it... as in, I used some of the images out of ICS in the theme, as well as a little xml and the screen animations. Doesn't make it ICS.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say because they falsify information in their roms most likely. Callin this 4.0.1 is completely inaccurate. Just because it has a couple of "ICS features".

So in other words, the latest build the dev team has put out is just an amalgamation that's only partially ICS with the rest of it being part and parcel Gingerbread, huh?
Really looking forward to seeing hardware acceleration. I couldn't tell ya whether it'll really be the next thing since sliced bread.
Any word on whether this might allow us to run games more smoothly? I think I read somewhere that it's also a matter of developers writing code into their games that make better use of Nvidia's GPU? With the Tegra 2 being a CPU that's bound to age in 2012, I have to doubt that ICS will help us in games.

Why do you think the sgs4g needs to get ics? My phone is fast got extremely great battery life and tons of other things. Do you just want ics so you could have the latest android flavor or do you think or know it will make our phones that much better. I'm not trying to be a smartass just curious why ppl are this rilled up about ics.
I think the only reason is because "others have it".

Great words blazen you know maybe ics has some quiet interesting features but our developers make than our phone from crappy to gingerbread better than ics that is one the reasons I want to start developing because I feel that I got skills to make some good stuff for the phone ( like themes and guides only things that i have finished) and other reason is because here our developers are way better than samsungs horrible costumer service....anyway every sgs4g user most appreciete the developers work even if the projects are not finished like ics port and aosp port because that makes people more happy and they know that there works are awesome

I believe that most want it because it is the newest OS and most believe it will be an improvement, much like GB compared to Froyo... Which is understandable considering the developers here are going full bore in a attempt to port ICS.
Being one of those that was satisfied with froyo, I have to admit I am even more satisfied with GB... But as for your question, I personally hope that it is released for our phone because if it is, so to would the source be released (just imagine what the developers could accomplish with it).
Just my 2 cents in the well.

You do realize that's a post from someone in the forums right? No word from Samsung USA. You cannot depend on what a customer service rep says, they sit behind the computer all day and still do not know a thing about the products they are supposed to be supporting. They are just trying to shut us up about it already. If the OG galaxy s gets just a value pack, it'd be hard to imagine them bending backwards to give us full ICS

If I am not mistaken the T-Mobile version is the same as the Telus S2 in Canada. If it is I would not be in any hurry to upgrade to ICS. My own experience and experience of others as reported on the Howardforums has not been stellar. Problems with apps freezing and battery life going in the toilet are common. Looks great, just doesn't work very well. I would hold off until these issues are addressed. I usually always wait to do an update until I here some feedback but this time I jumped in and am now regretting it.
Just a word to the wise
Ok if jellybean is only a minor update to ics and not a total update, couldn't we in a way have that on our Infuse? Just a guess and wonder because if that's true then our devs could once again stomp Sammy feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, it's just a guess after all.

we will see in time. if the kernel end of it is close i think it can be done. the coming months will be exciting. the dev on this device has finally taken off. i know entropy works from source so it might take a bit of time before it becomes reality but i can't wait to see what happens. i just hope the new features dont bog the phone down, we are working with limited resources. i didn't think i'd be saying that any time soon since the market apps haven't really advanced but there is so much in the way of new interface features in jelly bean as far as multi tasking that it might be a ram hog and really benefit from multi core. it's possible jellybean will prompt me to get a newer phone but not imediately.
Your right only time will tell, but I see it as it may be able to be done because after all, everyone said we would never have working BT and now we do, people said the infuse would never see ICS and now we have a few ICS ROM's! I will never rule it out as impossible

there are hurdles but now there is experience and new understanding in the trouble areas. but it was the same way with the galaxy s and gingerbread. even though the hardware was almost identical to the nexus s it took much longer to get a release quality version of cm7 than most snapdragon powered devices, there were betas and early ports with no recovery mode done as proof of concept but the official release took some time. the filesystem, the bootloaders, and the way the kernel starts up is all different from the nexus and that took time to safely port. then with the infuse that was all figured out but the hardware kept throwing curveballs. i wasn't sure if we would see the day that bt was functional and hardware acceleration was working as it should but i felt we would see ics in some capacity since a lot of stuff can be emulated. now i think jellybean might happen but it might finally date the single core chip, single channel ram, and limited ram as multi tasking becomes better in android.

Sent from my SGH-I997 using xda app-developers app
wouldn't it be better to wait for the nexus s dump, as that would be more identical and thus easier to port to GS1 devices?
*shrug*
yeah i think a nexus s port would be better but a source build is best. a port from a dump would likely be more proof of concept than a daily driver.
and as far as project butter goes, it might be a double edged sword. i'm sure the phone will continue to feel smooth for the average user but power users will multitask more. we may get more out of the phone than we have before but at the same time it might be easier to demonstrate the difference in newer devices. jelly bean might get the most out of the infuse but the infuse might not get the most out of jelly bean but i can be wrong on this. it's just opinion based on no real knowledge of how they plan to get smother performance or how that affects the resources the infuse has available....
Yea. it will only be a few weeks till source. And with the progress with ics I'm sure it won't take long to build. And entropy said he only builds from source. I'm sure he or nun would test it out.

I don't understand a thing typed up on that page.
But if this is real, I will be overjoyed.

The OFFICIAL ics is out for su660. When kernel source cones, p990 can be made stable with the drivers in it. Which will make p999 workable when devs get to it.
Hence indirectly out of luck g2x got a life.

He's the reason we have anything on our phone. He's a true developer, not just someone who can compile pre made work. He lays the basis for all the roms.

Each n every Dev here is skilled. For me there has always been 3 kind of peoples. People who are end users who just buy the phone and fear to fiddle with it cuz it will void the warranty. Others are power users who doesn't care about warranty and do flashing testing and even sometimes tweaking the code (these are the extreme power users). The last are developers some who add their own logic to the code to add new things and fix things the others are extreme developers (who has the android code in their brains like people in LG and Ricardo and last but never the least Google itself)

RC is the cyanogenmod developer who is in charge of the LG devices. But that's not to say everyone else isn't skilled cmon man.

I didn't mean to say the others aren't skilled. RC just does the forefront of developing while most developers use his work plus other cherry picks. It's way more than I do, for sure.
And I was just talking about rom devs, faux and morfic are amazing kernel devs. Every dev here is awesome, but we need to really credit RC for the huge amount of work he puts into our phone.

The Optimus black's source hit in a couple days.
So what about the news that the Atrix has a leaked official build of ICS now? It's the only other Tegra 2 device that is exactly like our phone. If it would have came out months ago it would have been nice but now that it's out so soon to an official release for the p990 it makes me kind of sad.

Been covered before, the Atrix is a bit too different to be of much help. It's a Tegra 2 but there are some differences.
I'm just concerned if the Korean Su660 is similar enough to the P990, and thus the P999, for its source to be of use, or if we still need to wait for p990 source?
My secondary concern is that there will be additional time/issues getting all this to work on Jelly Bean, which is what the "cool devs" are going to work on anyway.

It's the same phone, minus a button + an antenna. Besides, the p990 is pretty much a p999 with a different radio and partition, while the su660 is the same with different kernel level changes (as the p990) (or something along these lines. It will get us cm10 though)

As far as i know, the difference from ICS to JB is MUCH MUCH smaler than GB to ICS. From what ive collected so far, if we got the ics source we will be able to get JB to work almost flawlessly, maybe not perfect, but a normal user like myself wouldnt be able to tell any difference.
To me that is great news

Yes, with source for ICS, JB will run fine.
My Iconia tablet was upgraded to ICS stock, than with the source, the devs pounded out a fully functional JB ROM. I use it as my daily driver.
