AT&T 2.20 Kernel Source Available - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

The kernel source code for the 2.20 AT&T update is finally available on htcdev. I know this doesn't change much, this is just more of a heads up for those who were waiting.

it does change a lot! thats the 4.0.4 source we were waiting for if I am not mistaken

This will help in fixing that LTE bug in CM10/AOKP JB I believe

And freeing up the extra RAM that this kernel unlocks

It's about time

Took long enough, lol. It will be nice to see development take off again!

Would kernel source possibly help find any exploits for root on 2.20?

no camera drivers that I can see.

They gave us the source. But if we mod/fix it, it won't work on our phones correct? Or did they unlock the bootloader?

those of us with Root and unlocked bootloaders can use custom kernels.

Does not matter anymore. They are using the open source HAL. Mostly all the issues with the camera are gone. Only bust mode is outstanding.
The special functionality with the chip set will be missed though...

I guess I just don't understand why they would give us the source if we can't legitimately use it. Everyone who is rooted/unlocked did it without HTC's consent. Are we supposed to find bugs (without testing?) then submit them to HTC so they can place them in the latest update? Essentially doing the work of their developers?

I really hope the devs really work on this and poop out a lot of new stuff.. the forum been kind of drury recently. When 4.0.3 was released it seemed as though every jizzed themselves twice. But I didn't see too many things available? My first android so I don't know how these things work. Is it because these devs are so badass they don't need source as much as they thought? Lol

I'm currently pushing the source to github for your forking pleasure.

My understanding is that by the time the previous kernel source was released, it was already outdated as roms were being built on 4.0.4 instead of 4.0.3. With this, we're up to date at least until 4.1 drops.

Takes time and testing. Also even though got unlock bootloader and part of cwm don't think we can flash roms yet. Think they are waiting on something else.

Plus the source code for the kernel has not been release. I think when the source code is released, there will be a lot more excitement all around. Looking forward to seeing some optimized kernels running on these devices. Some custom roms and kernels will be a blast.

It has literally been less than 3 weeks (20 days to be exact) since the phone was released.
Plus, they already have an unlocked bootloader. I remember waiting almost 6 months before the Atrix's bootloader was unlocked.

This is why I usually avoid threads that use multiple (unnecessary) punctuation.
It might be an idea to stop posting "I WANT MY ROMZ NAO!" threads, otherwise devs might not even bother.
Development doesn't happen overnight. I'm sure there are devs working on them as we speak.

Jelly Bean 4.1 Download (Not usable for flashing, can devs look inside for clues?)

http://android.clients.google.com/p....signed-takju-JRN84D-from-IMM30D.5a07884d.zip
SO there is the link ^ for jelly bean, but it only works for "takju" devices that Google gave out at I/O, so this update is for the GSM Nexuses that were given to developers. I was wondering if any developer can use this and mod it for possible use and flashing with our One X's? Just wondering. Correct me if I'm wrong.
I think we need source code before we do any major porting. Correct me if im wrong

if it's 4.04 android you'll have more RAM and thus better multitasking. If it's similar to the leak from Asia, you can change the behavior of the recent apps button in settings. You can make it be the menu button, like god intended.

Also, some have mentioned that the multitasking memory management itself seems tweaked in the Asia 2.23 ROM. Its less aggressive about killing apps. Personally, I've been fine with the multitasking thing, so I haven't noticed much of a difference.
Other changes from the 2.23 Asia ROM, aside from the ability to remap the buttons (go Settings>Display, gestures & buttons), the ROM seems a bit smoother all around, such as going between home screens and opening the app drawer. Not too many other big differences on the surface, but that doesn't mean they didn't tweak a bunch of things under the hood.
One other real minor thing I noticed, if you plug the phone into USB, when you select what you want to do (Charge only, Disk Drive, etc.) the "Done" button is gone. I guess it gives one less thing you have to push when making your selection.

You should always assume an OTA will lock you out for good. In fact, I hope it does permanently block everyone from rooting ever again just so I can laugh at all the people who blindly accept an OTA because they think it will turn their phone into a sex doll or something. I can understand that type of behavior on Android Central, but this is xda and it's geared directly at people who root/mod their phones. If a stupid MR OTA is more important than being able to root, then xda is not the forum for you. FYI this comment is not a personal attack, it is a general statement for everyone who jumps to accept an OTA without thinking.

I remember the HTC aria 2.2 froyo update locked rooting out for a while, but the persistent devs the fixed that fairly quick stop I wouldn't worry too much :thumbup:

Interesting HTC Statement

HTC has posted the following statement on their jelly bean update FAQ page:
HTC said:
What about a development version of Android 4.1?
For our developer community, we plan to make generic development ROMs of Jelly Bean available for both the HTC One X and HTC One S. As soon as the ROMs are ready, they will be posted to our HTCdev site (www.htcdev.com). We strongly recommend customers take the time to understand the limitations of the development software along with the terms and conditions on the site before downloading to their device.

When they say "generic" development ROMS do they mean AOSP based or simply the OpenSense SDK compliant Sense-based ROMs?

"Generic Development ROMs of Jelly Bean" doesn't leave much room for speculation in my eyes. It reads generic jelly bean. Not more, not less. No Sense if you ask me.

Well considering HTC is all about sense I don't see why they would change that for a device they obviously intended sense to run on.
If you ask me it's a good ploy to keep people happy while they take longer to release jelly bean. I have a feeling we won't be seeing it this month for sure and doubtful for next. But I don't really care as the way it came keeps me happy

Nice, if this happens I will not jump ship to the n4. I love this phone, but I want a AOSP experience. Did I know the risk when buying this phone? Most certainly did. Ive stuck it out for almost a half a year and I would be more then happy to sell this device to someone who likes the sense UI.
It's a great device with a great profile to it. If it can get a 100% working AOSP i will consider it a win.

[Q] When is CM10.1 Android 4.2 coming to the HTC One S?

I have seen a lot of videos and post of Android 4.2 being attached to CM10.1 for the I9000/I9000G and other devices. I keep checking 5 times religiously for it but I am only noticing incremental updates and bug fixes for Android 4.1.2 roms.
I know the developers are working very hard but if anyone can relate, it's not fair to us HTC One S users who keep flashing different 4.1.2 roms with 4.2 add ons as it's not the same as an original 4.2 rom.
Since I rooted my HTC One S (s4), I have been flashing various 4.1.2 roms such as: AOKP Milestone 1 / UnofficialAOKP14Nov12, CM10, JB PACman rom, Blackbean 6, Dark Jelly S etc.
Developers, we need 4.2 roms please.

When the HTC One devices got released, they were released as a group so they should get updates at the same time right? Wrong, HTC One X got Jelly Bean 4.1.1 first and its brother the One S has been left out. Is it hardware related? Who knows? I think this subject should be announced by XDA administrators
