got to agree. does seem a bit quiet. i am keeping both (well, the inc goes to the daughter but i will keep tweaking it for her) so i want the devs to keep working on the inc.
It's probably temporary, the Inc community will last for a while.
Sent from my Incredible with the XDA Premium App.
Recently (as in a few days ago) coming from an Eris, which was 'end-of-life' in the middle of last year, and then received Gingerbread almost instantaneously after it was released to the public thanks to our fine devs here at XDA, I highly doubt the DInc will die out any time soon. This phone has way too much potential.
I expert it do die down in time, but the CM machine will keep chugging. Honestly, so long as Cyanogen has a DInc ROM, I'll be content. I use launcher pro, and prefer stock android over anything else, so not having new versions of sense isn't a big deal to me. Sometimes I like to jump on the MIUI train, but I always end up back with Cyanogen. They always support their phones so well, I imagine development for cm will continue long past the DInc's shelf-life.
I think even if it does dwindle, it will only be minor. As long as we have CM and a good maintaner we should always have something new and better to throw on our phones. The only thing is I've always wanted to see AOSP roms with tv-out but I see very little future in anyone dev that now that interest in it has died down.
I have been tryin z roms lately with very good success, and their cameras are the bomb. Aosp is nice an smooth, but i like the option to switch atound alot, plus cm camera just isnt that good. Im runnin miui gb now, with zero issues, kinda shox me for a first release just how good this rom is. I would love to see gb sense though just to have it.

The devs have shifted focus to the Thunderbolt to give it a jump start in the root and rom arena. After this happens I'm sure we'll seen new stuff for the DInc again. Shoot! Someone will probably port the TB ROM to DInc.

I just don't see the rom being much better granted the new Sense might be cool to look at.
DINC // CM7 RC2 // SLAYHER#9
I may be completely wrong in saying this but i think the tb is actually going to increase the amount of dev on the dinc. When you look at the evo and dinc there are roms that run on both. From what ive heard of the tb its basically a evo just a lil bit better. So as soon as a good way is made for easy transfer of rom from tb to dinc or to evo we will have more options on the dinc. Plus as soon as the problems are sorted out of how to get tb roms and code to run on the dinc we will be getting more updates to stock releases.

Good to know you have our back.
I had an Iphone 4, didn't like iOS so I decided to go check out the thunderbolt, I was less than impressed. No 4g around me, and I didn't want to pay $100 on top of giving my iphone 4 back. So I picked up an incredible, and couldn't be happier. Its such a solid phone. Perfect size.
I personally cannot wait until people start (hopefully) coming back to the Inc, it's been dead here lately, more than usual anyway.
Don't want to see the Inc die.

Makes sense, I watch the EVO forums still rock, Nexus One forums will always be rocking, and with the Inc being such a close relative, just surprised activity has fallen off a little.

Well, devs are staying behind because we are all starting to see how the game is going. Too many Android phones are coming out at once and money ain't coming any faster. I'm sure if people paid devs to come dev for the device, we'd have more devs...so if you want to pay for someone's E4GT, go right on ahead. If you don't want to, just wait it out. This phone is already pretty sweet and the problems we do have, a dev probably won't be able to fix those..so..yeah.
This phone is sick dude, just enjoy it and be happy that you don't own a device where you have to depend on the devs just to be able to get through the day.
Having it from release date, the OG Epic did NOT have terrible development. Just not the development some people wanted. And there were "some" people who were ungrateful and rude, like with any device. This one already has great developers, and we are slowly getting more. Be patient.

The Epic scene was pretty good. A lot of people came from that Evo...smh, the Evo messed the whole game up if ya ask me. Now people willl sit around and say their phone is garbage if it doesn't have the same dev scene that the Evo had.
Little do most people know that the Evo was damn near the same device as the Desire, N1 and Dinc. So most of the reason why its scene was so great was because a dev from any one of those phones could just port their roms over and all they had to do was swap out the hardware files and the kernel. Other than those 2 things, everything was damn near exactly the same.
Yeah I think we just have to be patience

what do we really need here? cyanogen and miui and stock roms. that is asking alot but that would be epic. for now i am loving starburst. love asop but don't remove touchwiz launcher and widgets. just my opinion.
I had the First Epic and the Dev's there were GREAT. We may not have had as many as some phones like the Evo but the ones we had did great work and who needs 100 roms to choose from when the ones we had did the trick. We had some great Roms and Themes and the fixes came pretty fast.
I have not rooted this phone yet mainly because I have not felt the need. The only thing I am missing is WiFi Tether. I am sure when this LOS gets worked out and the devs get their hands on the original source we will see much more. I am grateful for anyone that helps make this phone better, but it is pretty dang good out of the box. The best I have ever had.

Get back in the sweatshop and do work that requires more thinking than a sweatshop worker in china but gets "paid"(donations) less!

When a phone is released that very day we expect EVERY MOD imaginable, every "bell and whistle" and a choice of at least 10 roms and 10 kernels..

I imagine getting this ported to the MT4G would be a LOT of work, especially considering the difference in display resolution and aspect ratio. Might be better to wait for the Nexus S ICS dump.
Hoping this + 4.0 SDK = success....this is probably one of the only times I owned a ****ty Samsung device lol.
If someone gets this fully working, I'll give em 20 bucks, straight up no bull****. Any takers?
Edit: offer retracted, on the account of bills to pay.
From my fist to your face, enjoy.
rafyvito is working on a sdk port..
Yeah there's no way this will be fully working. It's just an SDK, which is mainly meant for app developers to ready their apps for ICS. I'm sure any Dev can make a ROM out of this, but almost everything will be broken and will be laggy as hell since they wont have the source for kernel or the right drivers.
Powered by a G2x
Yup, it probably would be a very similar port from Honeycomb but if you all remember we could never get that fully running and that was the SDK port as well. ICS source will be released though I'm sure
either most of developers are still sleeping or they still do not want to make any comment and promise just yet
i hope that there are still enough developers around for this phone. to buy new one is.. a bit tricky
I was gonna buy the iPhone 4S next month but I'll happily stay if this gets ported.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using xda premium
You probably won't see anyone working on this since it has been announced that ICS source code will be released a couple weeks after the Galaxy Nexus ships. Once we see source, the build of AOSP ROMS will follow very quickly I suspect.

It all depends on any dev's interest in the project, if there's other ROM's out for the device that are pretty much the same thing then there's not much more you can do with the work.
Personally I think the more that's out the better but it's all up to who's interested.
Just read rafys Twitter and I think he's gonna take it on but he's waiting for the code to be released. The SDK will just make it incomplete and not fully functional.

I'm holding off on messing with CM7 thinking that our phone is sort of on the cutting edge of Android devices and will surely have a version of CM9 becoming available in the not to distant future.
I guess the same could be said of CM7 but that didn't come true did it.
Am I kidding myself about CM9? Who does cyanogenmod develop for typically?
thanks.

maybe the free time is the problem. Cm is so mainstream now I think everyone who uses it should pay $20 or so for every version (cm6, cm7, cm9) If they were able to make money off what is really a worthy product they can be able to invest more time and manpower in their projects. Its a shame the more phones they support the harder it is
I agree. I also feel CM should move into creating a company with a large dedicated team of coders that actually work full time on CM projects.
As for money, $10 access to nightlies per device or something similar would make it viable. The project as it stands right now has over a million users I believe. $10 million per version of Android and access to nightlies should be more than enough incentive to do it. And a full time CM team would churn them out like clockwork.
I think that's a ludicrous idea. That destroys the entire spirit of Android deving, it's supposed to be open source. Although I haven't made any roms, or kernels, I am learning. I won't speak for everyone but I would never make people pay to get the roms I develop.
Firstly, some people can't afford that. Secondly, that wouldn't stop other people from distributing it. Or simply kanging it and distributing it to others.
If I've stepped on any toes then I apologize but I just think that charging people just isn't the way to go about this.
-We do what we must because we can; for the good of all of us, except the ones who are dead-
I want Cyanogenmod team to get paid for the work they put in however that will just kill the spirit of open source. Once money is involved that means they need to hide parts of codes else people would just redistribute them as freewares or cheaper alternatives which equals a lot of problems and headaches.
I'm pretty sure the developers involved love doing this and enjoy themselves.
Now back to topic, CM7 is surprising very stable on our S2 for an alpha release. I'm sure Samsung will release a ICS upgrade before CM9 comes out.
So I haven't had a smart phone long enough to know how the upgrade works.
If Samsung releases ICS for SHG-T989 will it be available to us or do we have to get it through T-mobile (with all the bloatware back inside)?
When the official ICS from Samsung come out is that when the ICS based ROMs like Juggernaut and Bombarider start coming out?

Only hired cyanogen himself. I'm pretty sure some things are confidential till released as well he would get fired if certain information got out.. Most likely samsung hired him for his linux skills not cyanogenmod. It just so happen he is the maintainer of cyanogenmod.

At the IO google said that they would release JB developer tools for JB. So will we have the full potential of 4.1 JB?
I ask this because JB probably won't be released (offically) for our phone.
PS: do you think the performance boosts of JB will have an significant effect on our phone? It seemed to on the nexus.
Probably not. We don't have kernel source for ICS as it is, even though our phone is slated to get it, but I wouldn't count on it so getting JB to work on our phone is highly unlikely.

I'm 76% sure we will get ICS. They have it for the S and they said they would release it at the end of August.
You must consider that JB is just an updated ICS. So we don't need an offical JB to have it running 100%. And Google will have a dev tool out that may help us. Lastly they have a dump floating around. Chances are that we can use that to help us build a 100% working ASOP JB build. But this all depends on when or if we get ICS.

And you believe everything HTC and Verizon tells you...? that Dev tool is worthless if it doesn't include specific Dinc 2 files that goes once again back to kernel source. That dump isn't as useful to us as you think otherwise we would have fully working ICS on our phones from ICS dumps. Trust me, if it were as simple as you believe it is, our devs would have done it already. The situation with JB is pretty much the same as ICS if not worse since there is also the issue of resizing XHDPI JB to WVGA because there are no JB phones with WVGA resolution. Don't quote me on that last part, but I'm sure a dev can correct me or explain it better.

Nexus S will receive the update and it is a single core WVGA phone. So, I'll be looking closely on feedback from Nexus S users. That should give us an idea of the performance gains that we can theoretically expect, if any, over ICS. And there is no need to be overly cynical about HTC and their promise of giving us ICS. They said they will by August end and so just wait for it. Regardless of what may have happened in the past, you will just burden your mind with needless thoughts...

They said to be determined by the end of August which is a big difference. And honestly at this point I don't really care if we get official ICS anymore I'm pretty content with the work that our devs have done so far without it, if official ICS is so important to some of these users they might as well have just stayed stock and waited for an OTA. I don't mean to take this out on you personally, but these threads about JB and "perfect and bugless" ICS roms have gotten ridiculously out of hand. Not to mention the amount of user that lack to read the threads let alone the OP when it comes to figuring out what bugs exist. Not directed at you at all, but more towards the users that have lately been demanding and expecting stuff from devs and not really contributing back to the community. I'm sure you've seen some of those posts. End rant
On second thought I shouldn't be on XDA at 2 morning when I have to be up at 7. No hard feelings? :beer:

Its been clarified by reps at both HTC and VZW that what they meant was that the date is to be decided but that we will have it by the end of August. Take that for what you will, as I don't believe there has been anything official that clarifies this. I am pretty confident that we will get it and can only hope that we will get kernel source soon after.
Back to the OP's question, I highly doubt that we will have a 100% working JB rom anytime soon considering we still have issues on ALL of our ICS roms. Once we have official ICS our awesome dev's will probably be able to get JB working well pretty quickly.

HTC has to release kernel source regardless because of the Chinese OTA they released. It might be as late as October, but they have to release it regardless or else they'd be in violation of some law that has an acronym I can't remember.

I didn't say anything about JB in 76%, and to be honest I don't think there is a chance of us getting official JB. We don't even know about official ICS for the dinc 2 yet.

They said to be determined by the end of August which is a big difference. And honestly at this point I don't really care if we get official ICS anymore I'm pretty content with the work that our devs have done so far without it, if official ICS is so important to some of these users they might as well have just stayed stock and waited for an OTA. I don't mean to take this out on you personally, but these threads about JB and "perfect and bugless" ICS roms have gotten ridiculously out of hand. Not to mention the amount of user that lack to read the threads let alone the OP when it comes to figuring out what bugs exist. Not directed at you at all, but more towards the users that have lately been demanding and expecting stuff from devs and not really contributing back to the community. I'm sure you've seen some of those posts. End rant
On second thought I shouldn't be on XDA at 2 morning when I have to be up at 7. No hard feelings? :beer:

OTA ICS will (should) help remove many of the small bugs we have with Camera etc... And once we get a hand on our kernel source, I believe devs will be knee deep in Jellybean goodness... The main reason why I am looking forward for the OTA is for the kernel source... Hell no I am going to go stock.. Once the kernel is up, I am gonna go with Nits' Sense 4 ROM!
The To be determined thing is crappy of them... They say on their FB page that the "Release Date" is the thing to be determined, NOT whether it gets ICS or not... which makes sense given it is in the table of release dates and given they previously confirmed to give it ICS... anyway, time will tell... No breaking my head on this...

You used more brain power than you HAVE!! Hope you didn't burn out and fuse your brain... We need you for the Sense 4a ROM...

We really only need the kernal for ASOP. IC sense 3.6 has fully working cam.... IDK about video. Phone video is pointless because it has low FPS and the audio is terrible.
Why is camera always better on sense?

Yeah, I should try that ROM too, sometime... I was wondering how functional it is... The Sense 4 ROM has some issues with GPS too (if you toggle it, it will not come back on). But I don't like how Sense 3.6 is.
Even if we don't get an OTA HTC still has to release source because of the Chinese and Inc S ICS OTA. That's why I don't understand why some of the other users are so anxious for an official OTA, even with these other OTAs flash timing appears to still have not been fixed, whatever that is I haven't had it happen personally (knock on wood). We all need to relax and just wait for source to be posted and let the devs do their thing.
On a different topic, anyone else thing the default sig on the XDA app is kind of redundant?

In my experience it was bugless (IC 3.6) although it was laggy. It was laggy in the wrong places (homescreen, and scrolling through certain apps) and smooth in the wrong places (app drawer, GP, settings).
You need to check it out

I agree, there were a few things that happened recently that have gotten us excited..... (The S getting ICS and JB)....... but we need to chill out. And in the mean time enjoy what we DO have, and not think about what we don't and might not get.
Funny thing is this thread only exists becuase of the recent changes.
