Ice Cream Sandwitch / Android 4.0 Roms

Sorry if this is a dumb question. As i dont know how Roms come to be or how people port stuff from one phone to another etc.
But my question is, once Android 4.0 is released with the Prime. Will there be Android 4.0 Roms for the G2X. And if so... Will it take long?
If there wont be. I might have to switch to Verizon and get the Prime.

Yes, i'm sure once ICS source code is available our devs will port it over to our devices. With ICS being delayed probaly till end of November it's just a waiting game now...

I dont think it will take too long. I guess it depends how fast the devs get it and create one.
I had a Milestone 2 with a locked bootloader and it finally got Gingerbread but I think G2x is unlocked and easy to create.

Im sure it wont take no time to Cyanogenmod to stark working on ICS

I'm sure we'll get it. Thanks to guys like faux and the cm team, we already have an aosp base. I'm sure there will be drivers that need to be written/re-written, and bugs to work out, but we'll get it. Plus, I'd put money on the fact that once the source code for ics is released, the cm team will start integrating the newer version into cyanogenmod. We probably won't get it right away, and we definitely won't get it officially from lg or tmobile, but I'm sure we'll get it eventually.

Once CM8 is released, it should be released on the G2x along with other devices. I just hope we can disable the software Home & Menu keys.

They're not delaying ICS, or the Prime. I believe they're just delaying the unveiling, in respect of Steve Jobs.

SOFT keys. As in the ones the buttonless Prime has. Considering ICS is coming to the Nexus S and others, there will definitely be support for softkey removal.

Android 4.0 is suppose to be compatible with all android devices within 2 years old, and manufactures have agreements with Google that there should be official releases on all these devices. I highly doubt that will happen.
Also, the next Nexus device, by whatever name, won't be exclusively Verizon. It may for a period, but the FCC Documents show that it does in fact HAVE AT&T/Global AND T-Mobile 3G/4G bands, and no LTE.
Wait for official announcements on the phone, but I can guarantee the G2x will have 4.0 one way or another.

The agreement to update all devices for 18 months its for devices released post-ics. We're not eligible, though we will probably get CM8.

I was in a predicament whether to get the Nexus S or the 2x this coming week and my only concern was the ICS upgrade .... thanks guys for putting me at ease
G2x community looks pretty tight not overly populated not sparsely inhabited, just the right combination and an active killer combo of devs

from what I hear MR. CM himself uses the g2x as his personal device so I think it will happen prety fast probally faster than others. I could be wrong about that I read it on a fourm when the g2x was still new. You never know how reliable those sources are.

I heard he got a job with Samsung. Though I speculate nVidia will release drivers since so many devices use the T2 soc
Not too worried since the g2x community has a lot of talented and smart developers already

I would expect an official upgrade as well though, seriously its a google experience phone,while not the top selling it has the specs and what not to get the upgrade.

are we beta testers?

Please don't think I'm trying to discredit rootzwiki' or their source for the leak, but do you ever feel like Samsung wanted ics to leak on purpose? I bet you they are just creeping this forum, looking for bugs we find, watching how our devs here tackle them, and make noted and fixes for the next version.
I mean why not? Everyone here who flashed it did it knowing what could go wrong. They didn't send it ota and make customers mad, and Samsung has been pretty root friendly with their hardware. Is Samsung lazy? Stuck on development? Or just needed people to do the dirty work?
If this is the case they know we all hate touchwiz, but I don't see that changing.

They could also see we all voided our warranty, haha

LOL all part of the plan I guess. They gave us an unlocked bootloader to make it that much easier!

I'd actually like to think that. That just means a faster OTA for us!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using XDA

More likely the leak comes as a result of a closed soak test beta or something. They're probably aware that it'll leak and don't care too much.

I think the leak is due more to the change.org petition that was started a week or so ago. Samsung probably figured it would passify us enough to not bother them anymore, at least untill JB comes out.
On the other hand, it would not suprise me if they released this "beta" to help get the kinks out before ota.
In the gaming world, Steam let the indie game company Kerberos release Sword of the Stars II and it was like a mid to late alpha version and practically unplayable so they would meet their release date deadline. It was pretty much unplayable but they could get tons of feedback from the people who bought it.

For all the hours Ive put in, I am starting to wondering where my paycheck is from Samsung/AT&T.
---------- Post added at 09:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:29 PM ----------
We should hide a string in the code to see if they push our update OTA!
LOL
It sure would be funny to see that pass OTA

I actually contacted them two days ago reguarding when the update to 4.0 or what ever 4.0.? it would be would be coming out. They said, that I would have to ask Google and At&t about it that they didn't have to much to do with it, but do make sure it rolls out smoothly. That's the short of what they gave me.

Why rely on the carriers to do all the dirty work when you can release (or "leak") it and let the masses find all the issues for you? Its a smart thing that companies do all the time. I for one am happy it was "leaked"

I've always been a fan of leaks no matter what the phone, but being coming from a locked bl to a new device, recovery, etc catching up on the SGSII Skyrocket wasn't hard. But that build for being a leak was so complete it was stunning. And the devs jumped on it like hyenas on carrion. Lol. As we love them for doing so.
Part of me can't wait for the AOSP and Source to get out for their "Official" OTA. That's where the fun begins....

As long as it get the of the OTA earlier I'm OK with that! Is that most of the android code opensource anyway?

[BOUNTY][REACHED]Let's get nitroglycerine33 Eclipse ROM on our s3

The bounty has been reached! Thanks XDA! I'll update the OP when Nitro had a phone.
UPDATE: phone had been purchased and week be doing it Monday, confirmed by hesh.monster
FINAL UPDATE: NITRO JUST GOT HIS S3.... HERE WE GO!
If you haven't heard of Eclipse ROM you've probably been living under a rock. If you have heard of them, then you know of the unmatched stability and speed. Not to mention sheer beauty!
nitroglycerine33 is already working on a ROM for the s3, but doesn't own the device. This limits the testing and work he can do, so we need to get him one! I figure 450 is about the average price for one. So let's set that as a goal, nitro says he's already got 20 towards that goal. His donation link is at the bottom of this post. Please post your donation so I can keep track of the total. All donations are going straight to him and if we get more then what we spend on the device it will stay with him as a donation for his hard work.
Also I just sent 40 so now we're at 60 total only 390 to go! Let's get some Eclipse!

Yes his ROMs are usually similar to AOSP. Even his stock based use a lot of AOSP apps (dialer, gallery, camera, etc). They are oh so sexy, and incredibly stable and his support if the ROM it's unrealistic. If there's a problem he fixes it!

I don't know what happened on the bionic, but I do know that his ROM was great for both the RAZR and charge. He also doesn't release a ROM that isn't stable. He also already has a build for the s3 just needs some bug fixing. Which is hard to do without the phone.

I have never ran or heard of your roms (not trying to bash) but I donate to devs that get the device themselves and then show us their skills... I have a hard time donating to someone that should be able to get the phone somehow...? I am living on a set income but found a way to get this device because I love new tech but the comment above makes me think that you think your entitled to a G3 cause your a good dev that needs one (which I don't doubt).. Just sayin... Your work is hugely appreciated but you can find ways of getting the device yourself and then if your that good at what you do then your S3 will be paid for VERY quickly! Once again... Not trying to flame in ANY way shape or form... I would donate in a heartbeat if your roms are as good as people say but you just gotta get that S3 like a bunch of other devs have done on their own.

Unfortunately, most people don't bother to donate to a dev so on top of the time they invest in making the ROM they are also buying these devices. Nitro is a great dev and this bounty was set up because I and others want his work to come to the s3 NOT because nitro just wants a new phone. He already has many other devices he works on and bought himself. So I appreciate your view and agree IF it actually worked that way were people took care of there Devs but it doesn't.

The guys got two kids, a wife, and a full-time job. Additionally, he's never abandoned a device, even when he's running something else. Heard of the X2? He saved it. He doesn't make it a habit to build off leaks, as many devs do. Want to know why? Because stability is his number one concern. This guy builds for YOU while he is working, or in between diaper changes.
What have you done for android? Besides make yourself look like an ass in here?
How many one man teams do you know that does that? Huh? Anyone? Exactly. People like you don't deserve to have fancy, fun devices. Go get an iPhone and take your ****ty, ungrateful attitude somewhere else. Or build something yourself.

I had the bionic and ran his rom. damn right he made it great. why build off of a leak anyway. the leaks were coming so fast it was crazy. imagine having to start over every time. its called time management. building off of leaks seems like a good idea till you do it (I tried and failed miserably. but got a new phone out of it) I would suspect that you were not one of the ones that donated for the bionic because you did not say a bunch of "us ".so why is it any skin off of your back? thanks for the x and bionic Rome can't wait to run the gs3 version.

Some stuff for the lt02ltespr

Hi. I figured I'd start this thread here and work from it until things are farther along and more legit. I just got the Sprint Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 a few days ago and now I have CM-11.0 booting on it. NOW MUCH WORKS YES RADIOS. THERE IS NO NFC SUPPORT!!! and BT works, audio works mostly. So, consider this just a nice little preview you can flash to see Cid on your tablet. Don't post bug reports and get all crazy please. I don't post much because I don't have time to respond very often. The link I'm providing is a generic link for now, but I'll post specific links IN THE THREAD for builds with new fixes and some info about the builds. Also at that link is a CWMR image for v6.0.4.7. Everything works fine on it. I've been testing it for a couple days. So, to recap: CM/CWMR for lt02ltespr ONLY.
http://www.oudhitsquad.com/android/?dir=Samsung/lt02ltespr
You might notice a carbon directory in there. This device WILL become an official CarbonRom device ASAP, but for now that dir is empty.
PLEASE NOTE: I don't do mods/kernels etc. I don't have time. If I do release something like that it's because I'm sharing something I'm working on for personal use and might not support it properly.
It's nice to be here. I hope there are some users who will enjoy this stuff. Cheers and OUT!
UPDATE 4/8/14: Today's updates are stripped of all NFC and FM radio stuff since the device has not HW for them. Also, I've been looking into getting USB host mode working so there's been some, but not full success there. I removed geomagneticd so the Google Maps app acts more like it usually does, but I think I like the compass effect we had going. Dual band wifi is more stable and both radios show up on boot for me. I checked BT audio yesterday in my car with a third party BT audio device and it worked, so now I can really be a road hazard. Not much else is fixed.
New builds will be here:

Sweet deal. I will be watching for it. Like I said I'll do any testing you need. Maybe a little help and I could even help you out building the rom. I have some exp with rom kitchen and a little porting exp. Had a few roms myself (toro,ls970,vivow) so im glad to contribute any way I can on this project. Hopefully CM will see it and pick the device up officially.

Way to prove me wrong. Love it when that happens lol. Running it now, seems nice, few graphical issues but nothing so bad its not usable as my DD. Can't wait to see what the future holds for this ROM/Device. Though IMO anything without TouchWiz is a step in the right direction.
Thanks again, and I'll keep you informed on any issues I find and am able to replicate.

I think I swapped the adreno drivers from the s4 mini... Spread the word, its coming.

Would you mind if I made a thread in the development section with links to this thread and the ROM? Of course you'd be getting the credit and all, I just think it would get noticed more there.

Am I right in assuming this is for the sprint version of the Tab 3? I currently have the t210 device and would love to see CM on it! Very new to Samsung. Only had the device a couple of days!

Yeah it is, but after its a little more stable I might decide to start porting it out to the other Tab 3 models. This is just an alpha build still and is far from ready. But if you could find a CM for T210 I may be able to hack-port it over. It wouldn't be the most stable thing out there but it would be a start similar to this ROM

No biggie, lollipop had a huge memory leak bug that would have ruined many people's experiences. I trust HTC will release a functional update soon.
I would rather have a fully working item than the newest one that is broken.

My thoughts exactly, especially here on XDA. Just when we think we are getting close to the most perfect ROM with all the mod's and tweaks and themes we want, it all gets abandoned for the next version of Android and we have to start ALL over. It really kinda sucks if you ask me lol. We never get to the end of a perfect ROM. It is like the ultimate bootloop lmao. And by then our best Dev's abandon our device and we are left with scraps lmao.

Been running Lollipop for some time, now.
On my VZW M8 with CyanogenMod 12.
Personally, I prefer KitKat in several ways and I may return to it... I would have done so sooner if I wasn't so lazy.
Today I done did it, took the time to wipe completely and install CleanRom 3.0 so I'm back to KitKat and loving it!

No, VZW is still in integration stage according to HTC.

So is T-Mobile, but they have their update to lollipop.

I've been running Nusense Lollipop and haven't ran into any glitches except occasional 4g to Wifi hand off. I prefer the notifications and pull down set up MUCH better in Lollipop. Other than that the recent apps change which is here nor there once Sense is applied its pretty much the same experience. Most of the other lollipop inherent changes like tap to wake and power saving mods were already features built into sense and other overlays or require an OLED screen to utilize.

Where do you see that they have an update?

According to Mo Versi on Twitter, the Sprint M7 got TA and the OTA will begin tomorrow. Kinda disappointing the M8 isn't receiving it first.

great news!Just saw this :
This device is in the 3 - Certification stage of the Android Lollipop Release.
Hopefully shouldn't be too long now!

Been running 5.0.2 on my Nexus 7 2013 for a while now and loving it. Battery life is great, much improved IMO. Stock launcher is ok, but it seems like Nova launcher is a bit snappier. But still playing around with that. All in all I really like the upgrade and have had no issues.

HTC Says T-Mobile's One M8 Will Get Its Lollipop OTA Starting On Monday, February 9th, others to follow.

Verizon's can't be far behind. It just takes them longer to test their bloatware to make sure it really sucks.

Verizon test their builds longer. That's why VZW and AT&T have the fewest bugs.
