Given that the HTC Rezound uses the exact System on Chip (the MSM8660), hopefully this means the majority of drivers required for our build are now out in the wild.

you should repost it in the skyrocket forum since no one is working on ICS here. T989 is waiting for Samsung
Keep in mind that even though they have leaked ics. HTC , Samsung and others use vastly different drivers from each other. Unless its from the galaxy s2 lte ,skyrocket or our phone it really wont help.
never heard of htz before
HTZ? Is that the knock off version?
It's probably a show where the paparrazi harass high ups from cell phone manufacturers.

Do you not need call audio?

Do you get my point now or is the ICS wanting salvation in your mouth blocking the thinking? There is more to these phones than just a processor running a big screen.

So, since I'm guessing the Nexus S is at least somewhat similar to its Galaxy S cousins. What are the chances of getting some Gingerbread going over here?
I see it happening but not for a long while given we don't have 2.2 yet.

Just need a developer to tweak the Nexus S ROM once it's out.... Problem is we don't have any devs yet...
The Nexus S kernel source is now available.
http://androidcommunity.com/nexus-s-kernel-source-available-now-20101214/
I have a fascinate, but was curious what the continuum users were up to. Bad news is that the nexus S is gsm, so their kernal can't be ported over to any of the cdma galaxy phones due to irreconcilable differences in the RIL.

my best guess is that gingerbread/aosp etc will have to be built/completed for the fascinate...and hopefully it can trickle down to the continuum

Sorry to bust your bubble but that's total bull. The ril is inside the rom itself, only a few referenes to the gsm network are present in the kernel itself. The only problems your would run into would be externel sdcard support and the ticker being supported if at all.

This phone is getting CM9 eventually. Cyanogen's update said it was coming after the international version s2 one rolls out.
Yo bro this is the best phone T-Mobile has believe me u won't be disappointed grab it. And yes we will get cm9 after the exynos devices. snapdragon is next and devices alike and were in this category
CM9 will come. This device is the top 3 devices out right now, and will still be relevant after a year or more.
short answer: yes
I took advantage of the FAR V-day sales last week. I was tempted to wait for the Galaxy Nexus, but it seem T-Mo is always the last one to get any decent phones. Since my Nexus One was showing its age, I ordered the GS2 and renewed a 2yr contract. I figured as long as the hw is capable of running custom ROM's, it really doesn't matter if it's the Galaxy Nexus or Galaxy S2.

By the time CM9 comes out, many other phones that are far better than the GS2 will be out, including the GS3.
If you really want CM, get a phone that supports it initially.

No we definitely need the drivers that's why we need Samsung to drop ics. Because building drivers from scratch is no easy task. It can be done but will take a while. That is why a lot of devs rather wait for that it will make life that much easier when compiling a rom. I know xboarder said he is building drivers tho. We need those for sound, touchscreen, and etc.. also cm prolly has already done this we will prolly see something from them before official

You would have to port a rom from another device and have to work out all the bugs that come with such an undertaking like getting cell radio to work, wifi, camera and many others. It's just simply not worth the time it would take. For an example take a look at the thread porting sense and touchwiz.

If I'm thinking about this correctly, the biggest challenge would be trying to emulate the buttons (home, back, menu, search) that GB requires to operate. They are not needed in ICS, but you can't run GB on a device without them.
This is just for fun, cause we all know Sprint is gonna sit on it as much as they can before finally giving it to us...
But how long do you think before the OFFICIAL Premium Suite Update gets released from Sprint?
Keep comments related to the Sprint or the update itself please. In other words... ON TOPIC.

While I agree they were relatively "quick" with the last update compared to other times, I've been with them long enough to know they take their time on a LOT of things, not just updates to devices.
Aside from that point, it's my personal opinion that Sprint (or ANY carrier for that matter) shouldn't even have their hands in the updates released for the device at all. They should have their own software that is required for the device to activate and function on their towers and service and that's all. If you don't have their software, it won't work, simple as that. Whether or not they add additional requirements for their software to function properly on the device is up to them as well, as it's their own software and their service they are providing, but the fact of the matter is that it's NOT their device. So as to the updates to the software and functionality of the base device, that shouldn't be at all for the carrier to decide.
Think about it from a different angle... What if Steam or Skype or some other software as a service type company said that you couldn't apply an update to Windows or update your video card drivers or sound drivers until they release their own approved copy of the update or driver... You'd laugh at them, right? I mean seriously, how silly would that be?
Now, they can RECOMMEND that certain drivers or updates NOT be applied until they are fully tested, but they cannot force their own copies of the same updates/drivers upon you.
Not trying to start a full out debate here, but just my own thoughts on the update release process and something for people to think about.
Also, there's no need for vulgarity, no one is "*****ing" or "jerking each other off" here. This is just a poll and a calm discussion about the update and hopes for how soon it will be. Please keep it clean or I will have your posts removed. Thanks.

Good point. And at some point the software upgrades will outgrow our hardware. I'm content with all of the development and roms that we have.

It will be a while before the hardware on this phone gets outgrown. That's one of the reasons I originally bought this phone instead of the S3 when it was released....because I knew THAT phone's hardware would eventually be outgrown by software updates. But I know as long as the Nexus 4 is able to handle software upgrades, we will too. And we all know the Nexus devices are first in line with the software upgrades.

I'm brand new to the whole development aspect of Android and have never really peaked at the code so please excuse my ignorance on the topic, but why is GSM to CDMA so hard?
I would think the OS would be built in a way that it utilizes drivers/modules to offload a lot of that dirty work. So it would be something like:
(quick pseudo code so don't get nitpicky.. just trying to get the idea across)
Code:
network = new NetworkDriver('LGOG_CDMA'); //swap out CDMA for GSM drivers, etc..
network.init();
network.sendPacket(your_data_stuff);
and then it would be a matter of then at least trying and hacking the drivers from 4.2, assuming system calls don't change drastically with every minor release wouldn't this work?

We are building from source, not porting zips. It'll be CM10.2 when ready. Also, the Nexus 4 is much closer to us than the S4 or One.
But since hardware wise we all run the same base wouldnt it be easier from any of them ? I've messed around have had a s4 ROM running with data working on my phone ...
