I was wondering if there is any chance in the near future to install IOS 4.3 on the XOOM as a dual boot ?

Seriously? WTH!!

NO

Are you kidding me?! What kind of a question is that???? No it won't happen ever!

This would be like replacing a ferarri engine with the guts from a Geo prism.

Long answer: Because of Apple's closed environment and non open source software, and also because of legality issues and such........
Short answer: No.

I don't think this is impossible at all. It won't be official or legal, but as Android was put on iPhones, I think the opposite is perfectly possible. One blog I read today even implied the possibility of the Apple A5 being the same processor as the A9 in the xoom, but I really don't know how correct that is.
The problem is that I don't see anyone bothering to do this, but I wish they would. It would be awesome to have access to some iOS-exclusive apps.

I dont think Apple would have any problems with this at all.

the A9 processor you're referring to is the Cortex-A9 processor, which is used for all dual core processors. all the new high end phones you see now are powered by ARM Cortex-A9 processor (including iP4, Atrix, Bionic, etc)
On top of the Cortex-A9 lies the SoC chip,
The A5 is an SoC developed by (intrinsity, samsung, apple)
The Tegra 2 is an SoC developed by NVIDIA
Hope that clears things up.

Apple is SkyNet?

This is one of the funniest threads I've seen. The only one that compares was the "Anyone want to trade my iPad 3G for your Xoom?" Like anyone would give up a Xoom for an iPad...

U might as well wait until some body ports over the miui rom over to the xoom if u like ios so much lol

And how, if I may ask?
The developer would need iOS source to start with. How about rewriting drivers, functions etc?
Android can be used on iOS devices but it doesn't mean the opposite could be possible.. The OSes are just so diffrent
..but yeah, it'd be cool to have a device open to ALL platforms and usable with them.

Maybe someday VMware can do this

Devs...We need to talk..

Dear Devs,
I'm sure most of you know the HTC Wildfire-S right...? Unfortunately...XDA is promoting it..and some devs are attempting to port ICS on it.. T.T I wish someone can speak to this matter and at least cheer me up...

Sigh, why did I didn't saw this post earlier.. anyway he's right guys, at least some of us should try and take a look with the ICS ports and see if there's something the devs can do and help, it's about helping guys. You're not alone.

Yup god dammit you are right. Our device is a lot better but due to the fact that samsung didn't. Promote our device we have this situation in our hand. Plus we do not have many developers for out devices.

ps: this is NOT a rom, for developers ONLY!!
pps: Please dont ask for Eta's , or start another thread requesting an eta, when the developers are ready and confident they have a working build im sure they will post it in the "Optimus3d Development" thread
the Prada ICS source has been released , which will help with the porting .http://www.lg.com/global/support/opensource/opensource-detail.jsp

Quit*. If you're going to be rude at least use proper grammar. And you can chill out, I don't know what your problem is. I'm just trying to be a little hopeful and Optimistic. I appreciate what these devs are doing to get ics on our phones. Quit being so pessimistic and ruining everybody's curiosity.

Don't ask for ETA. Ever.
Personally, me and a couple devs sat down and thought about starting a build.
We've got a half working kernel, but posts like "eta" always make us feel like dropping the project. It's extremely annoying.

How? If anything that would make me happy that people are excited and curious for the build to come out. Thats what posts are for tbh. To read and ask questions. If it bothers you so much I would just ignore the threads and work. I'm not trying to be rude but I just don't see why people being curious would upset somebody so much they want to drop all their hardwork. Anyways glad for the hard work you all are doing. Keep it up. A lot of people are excited and curious, nothing to get annoyed about.

It's just an etiquette thing towards devs. It's just impolite especially because it'll be out when it's out.

Evanizer, buddy, developers dont like "eta's" because if they answer to one, another pops up asking the same question, plus people use that as a definate and start complaining when its not delivered. When the time is right the developers will give us news, they are giving the most important asset to this community...their time.
All we can do , is give them support and now and again some support ...GOOD LUCK DEVELOPERS!!

[Q] WHY APPLE Does That??

I need an expert to answer me and explains this to me.
apple's iPhone is in many ways a great phone BUT....
WHY they luck the interface customization?
WHY they don't allow file sharing on Bluetooth?
i just don't get it. what is the advantage of not allowing these things? because these things are available in phones from 10 years ago, so it's not technology limitation. it's the company policy FOR WHAT?

Because it's apple.. they're selfish and think they are the best in everything.

They want the user experience to be as close to perfect as possible so things that might not work flawlessly are disabled for the user. That's why people say iPhones "just work"

I really think this is a good idea and will sign it, but does it really help to develop ROM etc. for our device? Sorry for stupid question, but I don't know much about this case

for what is this sourcecode useful ? will it accelerate and support only by creating gingerbread roms or android 4.x roms too ?

Its better than the 2.3.3 Sources that we have.
Sent from my GT-I9001 using xda app-developers app

I don't thik samsung looks on these petitions and what we want. The couldn't release even a stable 2.3.6 and they said that our phone it's too old and it's not high-end. But they release 4.1.2 for s advance,ace plus,mini2 and ace 2.. which are lower than our phone. I feel unrespected but we all know that after a period of time we must change our phones is order to have the newest softwere, even though i have my phone for about 10 months..

AW: [PETITION] Samsung release 2.3.6 Sources!!
Lol got my s+ for about 19 months and I don't think about changing it cause of our great devs.
And in this period of time there were lots of petition about our phone and none has been listend or accepted. So I don't think it will help

petitions are not generally useful . i have a similar proposition . if 100+ polite emails , nicely asking for what we want showing the advantages of the act , are sent then we might have a chance at it . samsung's customer support should care about it's customers wish , right ?
xda forum grasps a bit of a large community , which are potential or actual customers of samsung , and an act like releasing libs , sources and so on means a newsworthy xda post , especially for a popular low budget phone . this kind of acts is good marketing , and their cost is minimal , it's a win win situation . i mean look at Sony , they are doing this right now - supporting the community , and i personally think that my next phone should be an xperia .
sometimes , a bit of diplomacy would help a lot more than swearing your keyboard off at a gigantic corporation . just a proposition i hope you could get in consideration .
there are thousands of petitions out there and usually there are not many who are actually effective .

Petitons? No use. As edisile said, we have more chances if we send some e-mails to Samsung.

You can send million emails no use of it...
S+ is outdated phone, almost two years since releasing. There is no chance Samsung is going to do anything about it...
I they wanted to do something they would have done it so far...

Also, it is weird that samsung keeps releasing buggy 2.3.6 firmware..
Are they that stupid?

Perhaps it is better to write all such an email to qualcomm to get libs an drivers ?
