It appears they released a launcher for cm9 in alpha stage.
Engadget posted up a article about it. Might give it a try.

Ok guys I'm new to the whole android os and smartphones/androids in general. Never had either. But I have a fully rooted htc evo 4g running cm7.1 paired with the tiamat 4.0.6 kernel and I'm wondering what version of the android is 2.3.4? I know 2.3.3 was gb and 2.2 was froyo but is this still gb or what?

Yes this is still GB. It's just an updated version. From what I understand, 2.4 will be Ice Cream Sandwich, which is a hybrid GB/Honeycomb OS catered specifically for smartphones.
Ok but is there any way to get to honeycomb frim here?

I think I remember seeing a Honeycomb ROM floating around on here, but it's very unstable and missing a lot of features. It was mainly a test ROM I think. Honeycomb is mainly for tablets, but that's not to say it isn't possible. Your best bet would be to find the Honeybread theme for CM7. It's GB with a Honeycomb look and feel.

Don't think so, as Google hasn't released the source. Plus it's for tablets so kinda pointless IMO...
Any suggestions?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
There won't be a honeycomb rom available for a phone until Google releases the source code, which won't happen until they release the next iteration of Android, Ice Cream Sandwich. ICS is supposed to combine Honeycomb and Gingerbread, so you may not see many honeycomb roms because there won't be a demand for them.
If you are looking for a tablet experience on your Evo, the best bet would be to try a rom called the "Flyer Express" it's in the development section, and it's making some good progress. But you won't see anyone building a honeycomb rom anytime soon.
Alright thanks.

I've been out of here for a while, so I'm not sure if the GB tar that is available is an official release, or if it is still a leak.
I just won't do leaks anymore, but if it's official then I'm going to be all in that.

No. When it is it will be listed in latest firmware on Sprint's site.

No, but there are really stable leaks you may want to consider trying. Like the one I'm using, just titanium remove the ICS launcher

EPIC 4G
ACS ICS BETA v6
Eh17+ (soon nubernal)
So right now the awesome developers are working on the ICS SDK Port, and CyanogenMod 9, which has not been released to the public, is also being worked on for the Epic and is actually more functional than the ICS SDK Port. What is the current status on the development of the ICS port and CM9? Are there other ICS-based projects being worked on, such as a complete ICS Port (non-SDK), ROMs like MIUI 4, etc?
Check in general, there should be a thread that gives the status of CM9. And there's a video as well.

And there is a WIP thread on the ICS port in Development you can read.
The sdk port is dead. I got later source built ports from the charge booting, but not much worked. Let's just wait for cm9

Thanks for that. May try MIUI for the first time this weekend. Is there any chance of getting WiMax on MIUI4? Or is it that it will never be available because there is no WiMax in China?
Same thing with the Chinese. According to qbking77 and noobnl cm9 is getting ready and almost perfect other than the memory leak and some issues with camera.

Afaik no. Ics shouldn't change anything in that regard. For a more detailed explanation, read my most recent posts in the miui thread

Although the SDK port is dead, will it ever be possible for stock ICS to be ported to the Epic? And from the video, it appears as though CM9 looks just like stock ICS. I'm assuming it will be like stock ICS but with the cyanogenmod features? It doesn't seem like the UI is different the way it's different on CM7. And as for MIUI 4 (which I have high hopes for) will the Epic get any of the MIUI 2 versions, or will it go straight from a v1 to v4? Thanks for the info!
CM9 goodness!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g2r7anSiI5I we're very close guys!

Its not v1. V4 is just ics. By that number scheme, we're on v2.3. And v3 would be honeycomb, so its straight from v2.3 to v4. And if you're talking about the 2012 like 2.1.6, miui.us is skipping those releases for most devices and focusing on ics, which is what I'll do too.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk
ok, thanks, i meant it like MIUI 2.1.6, so we're going from MIUI 1.12.13 (i forget what version it is) to an ICS based MIUI right? That sounds good.
Got my 7" Skypad Alpha 2 from Groupon this week...been playing with it. Found this. http://www.skytex.com/download/Skypad Alpha 2 ICS beta.rar
Thought maybe those that also have one might want to play. Also though it might shed some insight for other devs.
Thanks i will download the skypad alpha 2 ics 4.0 beta rom.
The beta runs great, said for a few minor bugs!! The full release of ics should be coming in a couple of weeks

Lookin for and app thats similar to the multitask found on AOKP roms. I want it on my cm7. I tried the aokp and it was great but I can't deal with no flash so I went back to cm7 but I'm missing that webos multitask,
Is it possible to add/flash that to cm7 or maybe and app that's similar to it.
Thanks
There's an app I think its called itching thumbs it does the card multitasking.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
what multitask are you referring to that is in the aokp?
The webOS card task switcher is what he's talking about
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
there should be nothing like that. Multitask like that only works on ICS and none of the ICS roms have working flash.
Flash works in 4.0.4 if the roms get upgraded to it for the evo we got it on the et4g in aokp and cm9 and everything works but 4g now on aokp, itching thumbs did the webOS card multitasking but I couldn't find it anywhere its been pulled from the market and couldn't find a link for the apk
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Hmm. Itching Thumbs. I got a link to a post, here you go: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17144375&postcount=165
Some people has suggested Wave Launcher which mimics the cards; I haven't used it before though.
Sorry, did understand what u said, so aokp and cm9 have flash FOR EVO, or wich of the roms u mentioned have it.
Any that is Android version 4.0.4 once its merged into the upstream Netflix YouTube and the like will work flawlessly aokp has it merged just don't know if its been compiled for the evo yet I have it downloaded for my et4g gonna be flashing it today, the next release of aokp will have it merged tho just look for build 29 and up to be released for the evo
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Thanks, so I guess this multitask is only for aokp and not cm7, u tried the app u guys said but I liked the rom version better.
Gueess ill wait fir aokp 30
