Froyo source code apparently released - Desire General

According to the last tweet from this guy http://twitter.com/koush

I think it's a version ported by him.

It's not. It is the source code for froyo.

he says on aosp which is Android Open Source Project

finally we get source code
now we can start to see better froyo ROMs

OP gave me heart attack lol!

Sorry about that, but I didn't say it was for the desire

That's what I'm hoping! Maybe the wee bugs can be ironed out too, soon!

can we see some real hacks incorporated into the new custom ROMs here like wifi N hack & 720p hack & flash player full available with the froyo source code being released to AOSP ????
i am really waiting here so impatiently to have these 3 hacks on my desire.... kindly , any devs/mods here do something & serve us the dish which we always wanted to have on our cute lil baby ( desire )....pls.....

2.3.3 sense kernels!

i know most of the devs said in order to have custom kernels for the new sense leak we have to wait for the official release or source to drop. i guess my question is, why not take the current shipped kernel and tweak it a bit and add sbc mod to it for the time being?
is this even possible and if so is anyone like toast/netarch working on this?
at this point i think it was said that the current kernel was very incomplete so devs are waiting for htc to drop the KERNAL source code

Mainly, the 2.2 kernel is based on 2.6.32, while the 2.3 kernel included with the last leak was based on 2.6.35. Two different trees totally. With no source for the newer kernel yet, it's almost impossible to do anything... at least easily.
It's easier to just wait for HTC to drop their source for the .35 kernel they are going to use, then the devs can go to town on it fixing what's broken as usual.
I'm not a kernel expert, so there may be things I left out or assumed.
3 months later and still no source code

3 months? Its only been a little over a month since the official 2.3 update
We're comin from a pure power source.
HTC has released the source code in a month or less in the past for the Evo.
Unfortunately, I don't expect that to happen this time because several of the bugs with the current 2.3.3 release seem kernel related to me. So my guess is we won't see source until after they release the next update. I just can't see them releasing source for something that is so screwed up, but that is pure speculation on my part.
Yeah, if there is already so much talk of another update, then that would make sense. Plus, according to HTC they have 90-120 days to release the source code.
I thought it was 30 days. I know toast wants kernel source for evo 4g and evo shift. Hopefully HTC realizes its been over a month. I don't think it matters if 2.3.3 has bugs, since it was officially released I think they are required to post kerenel source of what they used for 2.3.3
Maybe we should give a reminder to @HTC on twitter

I don't think their is any requirement for them to release source until they get it working. For example, I can almost guarantee we will never see source for the 4.22.651.2 update, and as I said before, it wouldn't surprise me if we got another update and never see source for the current 4.24.651.1 update either. I can think of several good reasons why they wouldn't release source with known problems.
Every time I back out of an app and have to wait for sense to reload, or whenever I try to switch to an app that was supposed to be running in the background and it has to reload and start over, it is obvious that this kernel has serious issues. I would bet HTC is working on it now to figure out what those issues are.

[Source] Samsung Gingerbread kernel on GIT

Samsung have finally released source for 2.3.3 and is available from here
I have not tested it yet as I just got the notification from OSRC stating it was available and I will set up a git repository later that is like the one supercurio has done for the i9000.
EDIT:
As keeping in line with the i9000 and i9100 work that supercurio has done in keeping a clean kernel on git here we have it https://github.com/Galaxy-Kernels/samsung-kernel-tab. This kernel will be kept clean and have no mods applied to it, I would like to encourage kernel devs to clone this repo rather than using tarballs to share source
finally!!!! someone alert alterbridge! cant wait for an OC/UV kernel for GB!
I'm ready to get this thing humming close to my mt4g and all will be well.
Nice grabbed it right now
Nice find. Going to port some goodies from imoseyou in the tb furom.

Sweet.nice news
Samsung how about releasing the firmware first before you release the sourcecode we are all waiting for official gingerbread.

[Q] Source

I have a question, while everyone says that to get cm7 we need to wait for official gb. I understand that but we got official froyo didn't we? how come we don't have cm6 if it was official froyo and i would think it came with source within 30 days?
By all means, dont take this as a rant, i was just curious.
The people working on cm6 didn't see any point in finishing the project even with source because gb and new source was supposedly around the corner. 6 months later, we still don't have gb, and imo may never, and cm6 is final. The real cyanogen team doesn't support 6 anymore afaik.

No I asked this same question the other day and a CyanogenMod dev said it was because we never got driver sources :/ supposedly were getting them with gb but if not its gonna be hit or miss every step of the way since building aosp roms w/o source is like navigating a maze in the dark.......

i thought they had to release source within 30 days? or is the driver source not part of that?
if they didn't release the driver source with official froyo release then they probably wont for gb, then its say bye bye to official cm -.-

Let's clear a something up.
Official Cyanogenmod is 100% possible WITHOUT source code/drivers/etc. it just is not a practical endeavor to begin the arduous process of writing drivers and an AOSP kernel from scratch when there is a very real chance of source code being released in the near future.

Yeah its not impossible dude, just like 063_XBOX said..... I thought my metaphor explained it pretty well .... its possible to navigate your way out of a maze in the dark.... it'll just be a pain in the ass running into walls the whole way through..... "if we don't get any source with gb, Id think we would have nightly builds within 2-3 months assuming everyone pitched in and we had our best devs on the job..... " everything in the quotes is speculation and my personal guess so take it with a grain of salt or not at all.....
Ninja Edit: and as for source being released within 30 days of rom release, that's only for the kernel (and maybe rom?, I don't think roms have source??? I could be wrong)...... but drivers are closed source, which means they aren't required by license to give out.....

so its better to unlock bootloader phone for CM9 that coming?
Anyone know how long it takes for someone like cyanogenmod to implement it or how long it will take someone to make a port to the play?

CyanogenMod based on ICS will presumably be CM8. And it wouldn't hurt to unlock your bootloader now for CM7. Many report it works just fine on the GSM side of things.

It will take a while. Don't hold your breath for the Cyanogen team to get this in soon. There is a lot of work that goes into making a Cyanogen port from the source of the AOSP. It has to be merged, approved, tweaked, approved, tested, approved, and then you might see some fruits of the labor.
As far as a raw AOSP build, you might be holding your breath there too, on account of the fact that no one yet has build a Gingerbread AOSP build to the play.
I am SO stoked right now. Skyrim, and ICS source..It's been a good few days

CM7 - Gingerbread, G = 7th letter.. Cm8 would be honeycomb but it's closed source so presumably it will be cm9. Could be wrong tho
Sent from my R800i using XDA App
Cyanogenmod 9 has already been confirmed to be ICS.
Cyanogenmod 8 will be Honeycomb if the sources ever get released.
Naaah CyanogenMod8 is reserved for honeycomb but it will never be release. Why should they? ICS Source come out soon and they will include a teblet version to wich looks a lot like honeycomb. So there is no reson for anybody to work on honycomb.

Do you still try it with the sddk or are you working with the source code? Bocouse woring with the sdk does not have much sense when the sourcecode is alredy out.

ICS Source is OUT ! (Ice Cream Sandwitch) Android 4.0.1

Hi All,
Below a message from google about releasing ICS Time to DEV !
Greatings
Antonius
https://groups.google.com/group/android-building/msg/c0e01b4619a1455a
Hi! We just released a bit of code we thought this group might be interested in.
Over at our Android Open-Source Project git servers, the source code
for Android version 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) is now available.
Here's how to get it:Follow the instructions at
http://source.android.com/source/downloading.html
Check out the
'ics-release' branch:repo init -u
https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest -b android-4.0.1_r1
That's it! However since this is a large push, please be aware that it
will take some time to complete. If you sync before it's done, you'll
get an incomplete copy that you won't be able to use, so please wait
for us to give the all-clear before you sync.
This is actually the source code for version 4.0.1 of Android, which
is the specific version that will ship on the Galaxy Nexus, the first
Android 4.0 device. In the source tree, you will find a device build
target named "full_maguro" that you can use to build a system image
for Galaxy Nexus. Build configurations for other devices will come
later.
Unfortunately we still don't have our Gerrit code review servers back
online. That remains our top priority though, and we hope to have them
back soon.
This release includes the full history of the Android source code
tree, which naturally includes all the source code for the Honeycomb
releases. However, since Honeycomb was a little incomplete, we want
everyone to focus on Ice Cream Sandwich. So, we haven't created any
tags that correspond to the Honeycomb releases (even though the
changes are present in the history.)
JBQ, on behalf of the AOSP team.

Good news! Hopefully the devs can do something magic!
What does this actually mean for us DHD users? is it simply a matter of putting 2 and 2 together, and bam we have a rom? or will it take a few weeks, and be extremely difficult because I notice everyone saying this is only for the Galaxy Nexus, so it is pretty much like porting I guess?

Really? I hardly believe that.
Having the source code is very important, not everything. Release source code is for Galaxy Nexus, a different device. We need a working kernel and support for our hardware. Real devs are probably working on that now. The real work begins from here, and I hardly believe we will have something functional until CM9 starts having night builds... 1-2 months from now
Maybe we get the first nightly as a christmas gift.

I think you need to read the post again this is the Source code it is a build up for gingerbread as i saw the code this night it was released the drivers and support are gonna be build very easaly but still it can take up to 1 a 2 weeks before release (Altrough i think some devs will release today for other devs to work on it) Also we need to keep in mind that there will be bugs in the system (Its still a child )

This still needs porting, new kernel building, etc. I think a couple of months for alpha/nightly builds for DHD sounds about right.
