Project Butter...is it software optimization only.... - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

or does it require a particular hardware set in order to implement? Will it be able to be added to other ROMs perhaps?

From what I can tell its only software. I don't think you could add it to other roms.

Project butter is the software optimization in jellybean. Best bet is to port jellybean when Google releases the source in 2-3 weeks.

Okay maybe not jelly bean "itself" but the code optimization they made in jelly bean is what i meant to say

So there is a chance then for the Incredible to get JellyBean OS? Sweet! This phone just keeps on going and going and going..............

well of course there is a chance. My mytouch3g (think G1) has ICS. This is on a phone that originally ran android 1.5/1.6. there's a chance for any android version on almost any device that supports android

Notification bar is the first thing that gives it away. No need to look further.

This is GB, if you notice the notification bar its look themed, and at least if anybody have the source code, anyone will work on theming it.
In the video, he only showed music, why? because he putted the music beta 4.0 lol

[Q] Cyanogenmod 8

I know this might be a really stupid question, but did they just skip cyanogenmod 8? All I see are 7 and 9, what is it?
8 was supposed to be honeycomb. But no source code was released for honeycomb. And cyanogenmod only build from source.
So it went strait to 9 basically.
CM8 is honeycomb but since the source was never released, it was skipped
Why was source code for honeycomb never released?

It actually was released when they released ICS, making it useless, and they said it was "not ready"
Because Google was always planning ice cream sandwich. The bridge between phone and tablet. So they just decided to wait until they released ice cream sandwich to release the source.
They knew all of us on xda would try and get honeycomb running on our phones but it wasn't designed for that at all so they held it back.
Google didn't want the code used in handsets as it was somewhat mashed together to get tablet functionalty. They didn't want that early code in the wild until it could be merged properly into the tree

Nah. There are still some (relatively minor) bugs.
And Google doesn't have the final say in who has Jelly Bean. I'm sure we'll be able to get JB here, but Google doesn't push OTA updates for our device. Same for most others.

gonna be dropping all samsung branded devices soon, should have did so after my vibrant, would be a damn shame to see the T989 not get jellybean when the hardware would support it just fine
Forget the system dump. Just wait for the Source Code, which shouldn't take long to be out. GNexus is getting the update soon (2nd week of July is i'm hearing).
Can it be ported? The ICS is much closer to Jellybean than Ginger was to ICS. Maybe the ICS drivers might work and even the kernels.

Possible to get vanilla android on an S3?

Is it possible to flash a stock android like on the galaxy nexus on the S3? i have one coming from TMO, got a sweet deal on it. if i can get a vanilla android on it i'll keep it, if not i'll sell it and get the gnex. thanks everyone.

That's a question that only you can answer by trying both. I had AKOP on my Vibrant before I bought this phone, and it has more customizations than AOSP. In that way AKOP diverges from Stock Vanilla Android. That being said, there is no way I'm putting anything but stock Samsung on my phone. I just need to wait for a good theme to get rid of the Lifesavers-like Samsung theming and it'll be perfect.

Essentially you are correct. A Nexus device will always be the best way to have the latest and greatest, most bug free, seamless, pure android experience. AOSP will always come close, but you will still always be getting early beta builds as opposed to stable OTA updates from Google. These betas usually start to catch up about the time the next version is released.
But, if your phone is rooted, you can come so close to a vanilla feel and look on a stock Touchwiz rom, that it will be almost indistinguishable. With themes, launcher replacements, and removing/replacing bloatware, it can really get close.

Your going backwards the s3 has better hardware. And if u flash cm10 you are good to go. Don't listen to some of these dudes. Its as vanilla as it will get. I had the gnex and the s3 running cm10 which is jb is faster and has more tweaks. Then the gnex basically its very similar. And as far as data goes idk y some of these people bug out dude do u really notice a difference from 7mbps to 15.....NO!!!! Cuz I don't! Everything is kosher. Op the s3 running an aosp (vanilla) ROM is pretty much flawless has a few quirks but def a dd. ....dig in

question to devs about 4.2

so devs. you made at google? id be since 4.1 JUST came out and all. then a few months later OH SNAP! 4.2, better jb. how quickly are devs gonna be working on those roms? or are the new jb changes just gonna be incorporated in your cm10 roms?
