Does your town have a tall bridge?

people are dying senselessly around the world, and you are complaining that you don't have a silly ROM? really?
don't mean to be such a downer, but folks need to be more thankful with what they've got rather than worried about the things that they don't have.

Oh **** off I was just hoping someone would have some news with a new ics or jb ROM.
And I honestly don't care about people dying, unless its my family. And, I want what I want.

Get Tweaked 2.2. It runs great. Gingerbread runs fine as long as it's not loaded with Verizon bloatware.

Your over inflated sense of entitlement is disgusting. You aren't special haha

You have the opportunity to root that Charge and flash custom roms and kernels and tweak it into a cool phone. You can get rid of the poop and puke color scheme and have it looking pretty much any way you want. It's really great for that.

I love how everyone always assumes that it's Samsung's decision. It isn't, or at least it isn't completely their decision. They're at the mercy of the chipset maker as to what they can release...they're using proprietary VIA code, and it's up to them as to how much Samsung is even allowed to release.

Bet Verizon is part of the problem as well.

JB for certain (AOSP was too large). For ICS, they were at minimum saying that OS plus TouchWiz would be too much, let alone after VZW adds all of their bulk.

This is sad news, especially when this p.o.s can get ICS, and the charge cannot. Makes me even more regretful for buying my charge for 300.

I wouldn't say that's a POS. I almost bought one, except I can't find it in stock anywhere. It also has a lot more dev support that we do.

Ubuntu for phones, will you get it for your g2x?

I just watched the video on Ubuntu for phones os and its looks great! On the website, there's option for the lite version that will work with phones with minimum single core. I'm loosing hope on fully functional jb on this phone and I feel this is the last resort other than buying a new phone. Are you guys going to install it when it releases?

I really want to. But I just don't know how to go about doing that. Also your right, jb is just a maybe, and honestly I really want something stable and fast

Correct me, but did it not say it will have to be ported? I was reading if all devices will be getting it. Maybe it will be similar how cyanogen mod work and has different devs for different devices.
I would love to help with that if that is the case.

The Ubuntu website said that this odd based off the android kernel. It's probably ics kernel because it was on g nexus. This could be notable for us, we may never get this fully working.

Uhhh, it'd be the same inherent problem we currently have with trying to get jellybean on these phones...nvidia (closed source) chips. Right? Drivers are pretty important little buggars.

We may have problems yes. But I still would be very happy to be sportin' ubuntu on my phone.

It will give you problems, one of the requirements for Ubuntu on phones is that the have to be able to run ics or jb, nvidia drivers are required.

Not having the Java overhead would make it feel like a new phone. Hopefully it can be ported.

There's a good chance this will run on Mazout's CM10.1 unofficial (no radio), and now that Mazout has compiled a fairly easy dual-boot option to this ROM it will be a lot easier to experiment with.

Not really a big deal but it would be cool to see on our skyrocket. Our developers are so awesome so it wouldn't surprise me to see it. Getting it on nexus 7 and would love to have it on both.

Honestly probably not; and I think it's a gimmick at the moment. A phone entirely controlled by gestures? Sounds great in theory, but not great in practice

I guess I'll find out soon enough on my nexus 7.

It gets open sourced on the 21st so anyone can take a shot at porting it.

one word: BB10, blackbery's new os is entirely gesture drive
but we don't have enough devs for a port of something like this, its massive... I truly believe that unless a device with similar chip set/CPU gets it we likely won't. Don't get me wrong our devs are great, just few

Would be nice, as would Firefox OS but i'm more hot for Ubuntu for Android as that would finally rid me of having a technically unnecessary pc

I use a gesture based OS on my blackberry playbook daily. It is incredibly smooth when done correctly. If Ubuntu does it correctly, then I wouldn't mind having it ported. If it's done badly, then it just wouldn't be worth it.

Working on porting it now actually if git servers ever decide to sync.

I hope it's easy to do. I love android but I've always wanted to try a different operating system. Not gonna make it permanent but it'd be cool to use sometimes. Anyone know if you can back it up with recovery and restore it later? I'll ask over in the nexus 7 forums as well.
Sent from my SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app

You can if you make a flashable zip. Installing via bootstrapper deletes everything iirc.

Cannocal has already made a flashable zip for the nexus devices. You have to fastboot flash a .img file.

Have any Infuse developers started playing with it yet?

You mean the 5.0? Personally I don't think there's more to 4.3 than a few cosmetic touches here and there.. Can't wait to see what's in stock for 5.0, I read it somewhere that will compatible with low end devices. And here's hoping this brilliant phone can handle it.

Dont get me wrong, it was way ahead of its time. But compared to now, it plain sucks. I wasnt being arrogant, just stating by todays standards. Trust me, I appreciate gb and without it we wouldnt be anywhere
Sent from my Note 2 using Tapatalk 4

The original purpose of this thread was simply an appreciation that 4.3 is now leaked, which means it's only a matter of time before we see it available for other smart phones, regardless of whether its changes are big or small. The same goes for 5.0.
That's the beauty of open source. While some are more comfortable staying with GB, many get the benefits of what's available in the new releases. Very glad for that.
And very grateful for our developers who give their time freely to benefit a much larger community.

I'm definitely looking forward to the new notifications API in 4.3. I hope it comes soon, so that my liveview (Sony Smartwatch predecessor) can actually be useful.

Carbonrom Is
Carbonrom is currently coding android 4.3. I'm 99% sure it'll be for the infuse. A nightly will be available soon, hopefully.

I loaded 4.3 CM10.2 a few days ago. Totally awesome. Andros11 mentioned he'll have CarbonRom out in a few days.

Evidently, the Carbon 4.3 was released prematurely and was taken back down. Fortunately, I put it on my wife's Infuse and it has been preforming flawlessly! As a matter of fact, it seems that 4.3 runs much better than 4.2 ever did.

Kit Kat Rom

I've gotta ask the question...
How long do we think it'll be until we see Kit Kat on our phones? AOSP of course, not TW.
End of the month I'm guessing?

I've been wondering the same thing but from the looks of things I think it might be longer. So far Nexus devices sort of have it, but it's extremely alpha. Your best best is to watch CMs Google+ page for the release on the nexus devices. Once that hits the person responsible for our device needs to get the drivers working. Basically we are waiting on CM to get a working product. Paranoid is working on it too but they aren't trying to get PA to work because they are planning on rewriting the entire ROM for Kitkat I think.

And the answer is... November 10th!
Wow devs, you've outdone yourselves here! :thumbup:
