[Q] AOSP Icecream Sandwich possible? - Defy General

Can anyone port ICS to our defy from aosp??

Of course we can, and of course it will be ported...if you people read a bit before posting you would learn that the next version of CyanogenMod with ICS will be CM9. The SDK was just released yesterday so leave them time to work on it . Plus, with our bootloader locked, Quarkx will probably have to make a version of CM9 with the Defy+'s Gingerbread Kernel (our actual one being the Froyo kernel, but i guess it would be too old for an ICS port)

I thought that CM8 will come with ICS. Where I can find this information on cyanogenmod site?

Ofcourse not!! As there will be no no SDK port of ICS on CM (source : CM team). We'll only get a port when the official ICS source is out.

And right you are.

CM8 as intended for the honeycomb version but its source never released. Thus CM8 wont be there. Hope the same wont happen with ICS. According to an old statment by google ICS source should be released

At first both roms are only ICS SDK ports and not complete ics roms and I think if you want to see the differences between both you will have to install them yourself.
Galnet is developed by a team of developers and DSJ I guess is developed by the user "davidsonsjesus". Correct me if I'm wrong.
would you have any idea about the led? I would not like to blow off my menu LED just to test the rom.
Thanks
No, sorry, i dont use MIUI. I only use Cyanogenmod... So if you want to try a ICS you could try the AOSP/CM9 rom. But please dont try it if you dont know what to do! Its not stable and there are a lot of things that dont work yet.

they only have framework integratesd and the build.prop that says is 4.0.1 but are gingerbread! and are not compatible with any ICS app
ICS uses sdk 14 apps and ginger bread uses 10 so in the galnet miui or DSJ build uses sdk 10 that are based on gingerbread!

so do we really get anything significant out of the added ics framework, or just for the name sake???
is it worth having it and risk getting more bugs from it?

[Q] Will the Wildfire get CM 7.2?

Yep, will it ever get CM 7.2? Are there any devs working on it? Just wondering.
I thought the unofficial builds by erwin and cobje are 7.2??
Officially though I doubt it now as arco and Jacob have moved on to better phones.

As per the CM Blog, It was planned to have a final stable release of CM7 to incorporate all the changes that have gone through since the last stable came out, and also since the nightlies stopped. However, now that CM9 nightlies have started, (For some devices), I don't know whether this plan (To get 7.2 Stable) is still on or not.
Basically, if you are already on the local builds by cobje / Erwin, you won't get anything else, apart from a "Stable" in the file name, and the ability to file bug reports on the CM bug tracker (Which will not help, given that CM7 is almost dead)
Ok thank you. Its just like senseonfire beta 0.4 0.5 etc. And jokerdroid 4.2 and 4.3
Tought it was like cm6 cm7 cm9, for every version another android version.

[Q] Just wondering...

I read in the cyanogenmod forums that that the ROM (the public alpha-1 version) made by arco68 is "unofficial" CM9 ROM. What can be the reason for this custom ROM being "unofficial?"
im sure your not a good of a reader arent you ?
well 1st of all its unofficial because samsung WILL not realease ICS on SGW
and what arco has made is still incomplete ... there is still known bug and unknown bug that hasnt been fix yet ...
and the the ics camera on cm9 for sgw still is not working that's why its not official

I see .
Before my next question, I wanted to clarify first that by "unofficial," I meant the "unofficial CM9" built by arco68. (I am also aware that Samsung will not release "official" stock ROM)
Now, if that's the case, then what is the difference between the nightly builds (which, I assume are the alpha builds, please correct me if wrong) in the cyanogenmod's device page and the build (Alpha-1) version of arco68's ROM?
it's considered unofficial because it's not being released by the core team from cyanogenmod. They don't and can't work on every single device.
Still, cyanogenmod announced recently that they will support and assist whenever possible independent developers (like arco) and make their ports official at some point and, of course, under certain criteria (QC probably).
AFAIK CM9 for the SGW will become an official CM9 release as soon as it gets finished.
If I'm not mistaken all releases of CM9 are still in alpha stage.

[Q] Will there be AOKP once offical ICS is released?

Hi guys, just have been wondering if anyone knows about whether there will be an official aokp rom for the phone once htc releases Android 4.0 for it, or not.
Maybe some insiders here?
Thanks

There are custom AOKP rom running ICS right know and the developers are currently working the minor bugs out of them. I am sure that when the official ICS is released for the DHD the devs will have the final source codes to perfect their roms.
ice cold sandwish is Aokp and aosp and cm same time but yes when every thing is stable and an official android 4 from htc is release for our DHD then expect to see AOKP and CM9 and Sense 4, Sense 3.6 for our device lovely isnt it?
as a user of dhd we can only be patient waiting for a reply from the offical test
Well, it will have to be submitted to the team, and you will need some good maintainers...

Whats left to get official CM10 ?

Hello everyone,
now we have a really stable CM9 release and also nearly fully working CM10 builds, I'm wondering whats left to get official CM10 support. Epsylon postet that he an Quarx want to achieve this:
"So we are making a common repo for Defy and Defy+ also, and only this version will have official support..." (or isn't he talking about official CM support?)
CM team posted this diagramm a few month ago. It shows how high the chances are to get official CM9. Well, CM9 seems dead now, but we're still at the marked point I guess:
Now I have two questions: Do you think that even for CM10 a device with same chipset and manufacturer JB is required? Also whats the sense behind this requirement? If we meet Googles ICS/JB APIs and everything is working fine on our device, why do we need other OMAP3 devices with manufacturer ICS/JB?
Maybe we can discuss chances of getting official CM10 in this thread. For me Epsylon seems optimistic, even though he postet this last week:

Well hmm official will be difficult for the moment because there is not yet OMAP3 devices ....

Cheers!
They need drivers from the same chipset!

Right now are hopes rest on L.G.
They are scheduled to release ICS for Optimus Black in Q3 2012.
It has the same chipset,GPU.
But drivers normaly are a part of the kernel. So manufactured ICS for LG P970 wouldn't bring advantages from my point. In addition we allready have latest GPU driver and all other parts are also working with ICS/JB (Camera, radio, wlan...).

You actually are making sense .
Maybe the only thing we'll need from it would be the omx decoders .(720)

LG Optimus Black won't be getting the ICS upgrade (at least in Canada) : http://www.gsmarena.com/2011_xperia...no_ics_for_optimus_2x_and_black-news-4570.php
I guess there goes our hopes for official CM10.
Didn't we loose it at the "dedicated GPU" anyway? I thought it was our CPU who was also the GPU. Why would Motorola put a dedicated GPU if they never put an android version using HWA on it?
Anyway no biggie, developers versions released after the official 7.1 & 7.2 have always been better than official releases.
EDIT: my bad, specs on gsmarena says we got a PowerVR SGX530 GPU
